PART 12:
She watched the serene sight of him and her together in the mirror as Maan put the ghungat on her head. His eyes admired her and she could feel it ... they never needed words to express their feelings ... She lowered her lashes feeling blood rushing to her cheeks.
He had to control his urge to hug her taking a long breath .. holding Geet by her arms turned her to face him ... You look beautiful ... She smiled nervously at him with his acclaim for the first time.
Geet I wanted to tell you something ... She sat on the couch beside him following him wondering why he appeared to be so lost and so serious all of a sudden. Off late the little interactions which Maan was putting with her seemed to make her feel a part of him ... it was as if his hesitance has disappeared somewhere ... every feeling of him seemed to take a transparent nature. She smiled assuring him to speak his heart. It was a marvel for him for her simple smile could give him so much warmth ... Benevolence ... he admired her to every level that was possible.
This party ... It's kind of awkward for you ... I get that but I wanted everything that's related to you to be special ... our engagement just happened in four walls ... no one knows who my fianc is ... and now when you would be entering into a world of mine I wanted you to know what you are getting yourself into Geet.
She stared at his face with innocent look like not getting what he is trying to tell her ... was it a warning?? Was it concern?? She couldn't weigh what overwhelmed him but the essence of his subject was pointing that he was fearing an affornt ... Today I am gonna introduce to someone, family friend Satya Aunty ... Dadima loves her like family and she is family ... I am sorry she wasn't a part of our engagement and I want her to look up to you ... With respect and love like she does to every member here ... promise me Geet that you will not take her words to heart if they are meant to hurt you ... I just need your assurance that you would listen to me ... you will not bother her if she doesn't like you
She looked at her fingers which were resting in her lap understanding what Maan just revealed to her ... happy that he could tell her his inner fallout ... She looked at him in awe ... his words churning her insides thinking why would anyone has a need to so mean ... It's all familial love that I need ... Somebody's humility will not affect me ... I promise I will not let you down ... But I wanted to ask you a question can I??
You know you can ... His sincere tone touched her soul ... Which actually decorated her claim on him ... like anyway he wouldn't let her down ... he wouldn't step down in giving anything that she would ask him for.
You hate her?? She asked anxiously
I donno Geet ... I just donno ... It's complicated ... I don't love her neither do I hate her ... she became a part of the family when I was in London ... I came back ... I saw her in my home like a family member ... she chose to start a life later getting married to a rich man ... she comes here occasionally .. that's all I know ... Now I want a life around a person who doesn't stink of money ... I just need love ... a love of a partner ...
And you wanted to marry me coz I hail from a middle class family?? You wanted a girl who would be wooed to money?? She spoke cutting him off but Maan didn't mind ... he was being honest with Geet ... this was something he could never tell anyone ... not to dadima ... Not to his brother of his bhabi Tara.
Perhaps ... But Geet when I came to see you it was just to see you ... I never thought I would agree for engagement ... I wasn't prepared for a relationship ... But after I knew you ... I've realized I was no ready for marriage ... I was ready for a relationship with you ... I wanted a life with you ... I wanted to marry you ... only you ... Basically I am an introvert ... It took my brother a long class to open up to you ... and when I did I recognized what was missing in me
She felt like hugging herself in glee ... She blushed yet again taking pride of being his choice. But before she could voice out her feelings they heard a knock ... Maan rose to his feet to open the door ... Kya baatein chal rahi hai?? Bahar sab hamare wait kar rahe hai ... let's get going warna Satya aunty will freak out ... Tara giggled calling out to both of them.
Maan walked away leaving Geet with Tara ... So did you two speak?? Tara gave an expectant look to Geet.
She nodded looking at the floor making patterns with her feet on the floor ... Blushing like a bride already.
You are To - be - Bride ok?? Not the Bride ... don't shy away like that ... now let's go ... you're gonna have a special call to the stage
By the time Geet came to the gathering Maan was already talking about his future ventures to the media and then all the people turned to look at her coz Maan was watching her intently stopping his talk in the middle.
She got nervous with the attention that she was receiving from the people, never in life she had stood among so much of crowd. Her legs began to shiver not wanting to move forward when she held Maan's hand ... he wrapped his hand around her arm leading way towards the stage ... Maine toh kabhi suna nahi ki Shehzaadi darti hai?? He smiled at her as they comfortably shifted to the dais. She blushed on his comment, the same word her papaji uses for her ... for a moment Geet forgot to blink her eyes with the way he was making her feel so special.
In no time they were back Maan announced the world his woman ... standing beside him ... her grip tightened around his hand ... But everyone were truly impressed by Geet ... So was Satya ... She didn't understand why even after learning Geet's background she couldn't hate her ... She sat until Maan finished his talk ... I would want you all to join the welcome party to the To-Be-Bride of mine ... Thank you for coming.
As Maaneet were about to leave they saw three people in the crowd ... Her eyes looked at them unbelievingly ... those tears spilled and she turned to look at Maan ... toh aapko pata tha uss din main iss liye ro rahi thi kyunki mujhe papaji ke bina rehna tha ... For a week and now you got them here?? He nodded placing his hands in pockets feeling happy that he could make Geet smile.
She ran down to hug her papaji while her mother and sister admired the duo ... in all this they failed to look at the woman who was yet to be known even after knowing her ... Satyabhama.
Precap: Maan no please ... his hand stilled in the mid - air, frustrated he ran his hand through his hair ... Bhabhi I don't want this girl anywhere here ... he roared. Geet felt so terrible with the turn of events. Naintara mouthed a sorry as Maan held Geet's wrist taking her out of his room.
