HESITATION was the only obstacle,after crossing one can find the way. Geet's in laws blamed her that her mind hesitate to do any thing. She loose her self confidence or better said herself. She instantly took herself responsible for any thing happened wrong in any one's life. She was feeded that she is a big curse on every one's life.
But today's after talking to Maan her heart pushed her to feel rain once again. She was staring rain falling but hesitated to touch the drops.
"Nature never do discrimination on any basis. This rain have nothing to do with your past,present and future. Its human who differentiate and creates problems..."
These words of Maan echoed in her mind. She looked at her tighter clenced fists and raised her arm a but snatch back instantly before taking a feel of drops. Her gloomed eyes kept staring. Life goes on its pace. Never stops for anyone. She thought alot and clenched hard her eyes let the warm water float out. Gradually she took a step and came under the shower,letting her clenched fists loosen. She raised her closed arms like a bird do before his fly. Rain drenching her and every falling drop absorbing pinch of bitter past.
After first step her feet start roaming like a spinning top. She allowed herself to open up a bit. Maan was staring her from far away. A wide smile crept on his face to. He was also happy that his efforts works a bit.
Maan was sure that now she might change her decision. He start his car,leaving her to enjoy this moment.
Pari called to Maan and asked about Geet. She was curious to know whether she changed her decision or not. But Maan's reply confused her only. "what? You talk or not?" she was furious on phone.
"well i did but i she agreed or not i can't say. But i think she would like to stay." Maan talk casually.
"Maan dont confuse me. Tell me clearly what you said to her and what she replied." She hold the authority.
"she said nothing actually. You know how less she speak and with me she hesitates more." Maan was straight forward in his talk.
"Arhhh... Tum to mujhe pagal hi bana doge. I will talk to her myself." in frustration she cuts the call moved back in pace towards her home. Geet was busy in reading some book when she gets in. "di i am telling you,you are not going any where. Ok its decided so change your mind." she burst due to her anxiety and Geet stared her in confusion.
"Pari you okay?" She asked with concern.
"no i am not. First you promise me that you are not going any where." She stick to her words.
Geet's lashes lowered. "Pari let me go. I am curse on all. See mere yaha hone se tujhe bhi problems shuru ho gai hai."
"what are you talking about di?" Pari confused and Geet explained. "c'mon Di stop thinking the nonsense feed by those monsters. Its my job Di. I am working for a event management company. So its normal in my job. Iska apse kuchh lena dena nahi hai. It happened even in past. Now tell to whom you blamed for. Di that nonsense which they insert in your mind is all rubbish. So pls for god sake get rid of them as soon as possible. Jeeju died because of his job and i proud on him. He sacrifices his life for our country. But Di its not only happened with him na. With him so many soldiers are dies so kya un sabki wifes be unlucky thi? Di i know i am not telling you any thing new. Several times mama mami tried to made you understand this but Di now its time you will realise the meanings of our words." Pari hold her hand and wiped off her tears just float out of her eyes. "so promise you will stay?" she asked and Geet nodded in yes assured her. Pari was happy and demands for food. Both stood up to have their meal.
Three more months passed. Geet was better than the day she came Canada,but her past still not leave her. Maan always found her in white colour which remind him and Pari of her empty life. Pari tried harder but she aint listening. Se wants her to move on in life but Geet not ready. She even divert the talk on this topic and Pari give up.
Khurana Industries signed a new deal for which many companies are bidding but no one beat Maan's skills. He threw party for his staff and clients. As usual Geet decided to stay at home.
"c'mon Di how can you deny this offer. Trust me our company always do all the arrangements for Maan's party. You have to go and see how royal he is. Or waise b apko fikar kya hai waha sara staff hoga na." Pari argued.
"Pari i joined office that is enough for me. These parties are not meant for me." she denied completely.
"and why not?" Pari glared her.
"i am not fitted between those high profile mod ppl." she told her and Pari banged her hand on her forehead.
"o fo Di," Pari was bit annoyed with her stubborn behaviour and indulge in argument with her when her phone rangs. "pick it up. Its from your office." she put her mobile on her palm and left.
Sasha was on the line to remind her about timings. "Geet be on time okay."
"but Mam i am not coming." she denied.
"listen Geet MK commands to all of us. We have to be there." Sasha talked calmly and tried her level best but she wouldn't ready to change her mind. Call cuts.
"what she said?" Adi asked.
"she is not ready. Now what we tell MK?" She was in dilemma.
"party kal hai. Do one thing. You will go to her house and bring her. I am sure then she will not able to deny." Adi suggests and she to agreed.
Adi's plan works. Sasha went to her and brought her to party. Though she do tantrums but when she told her to wear what she want,some how her mind convinced. Sasha made an entry with her. Geet felt hesitated because only she wore the saree. She was staring all around with a panicked eyes.
But that made her unique and center of attraction. All eyes roamed towards her which gave her a feel of awkwardness. Even Maan's eyes hold her. He gaze her with his dark intense eyes. Simple yet so elegant.
Geet thought of ran from there but too late. Maan quicken with his steps and obstruct her way. "good to see you here. I am glad you give chance to your self. Now come inside. This party is for my staff and i want each one here." he was authoritative yet so polite. Geet glance in his eyes which holding her face so firmly. Geet hesitate but his calm voice once again forced to obey. She walked with him and both appeared together.
"perfect couple." one of his client remarked seeing them walking in together. "Mr. Khurana you never told that you are engaged. But i admire your choice." his client compliments and Geet felt uncomfortable.
"i am just an employee here sir." she corrected quickly.
"oh i am so sorry. But you both look good together." he apolozised but his words triggered some thing in all minds.
"waise he was right,not he?" Adi whispered.
"absolutely but you think its possible?" Sasha agreed but doubted too.
"if Maan sir want then nothing is impossible." he raised his brows and push up his glasses.
"Adi i have a plan. Listen..." she whispered in his ears and explained her plan.
