CHAPTER 9
ALL THE NAMES & PLACES ARE FICTITIOUS (if any resemblance to persons & places is purely coincidental). Any royal titles, architectural terms,IT terms & programs, office hierachy, wedding rituals, etc. are from my imagination hence THEY ARE NOT TRUE. PLEASE DON'T BASH ME !!!!!
Maan had a strong intuition that the dream was a flashback of what had happened at the "Farewell Party"! The only person who could confirm it was Geet. He knew she will not answer if questioned directly, therefore he will have to ask her in a roundabout way!
Maan called Geet to Mr. Chopra's cabin saying he needs to dicuss layout for the new project. As soon as she entered, he locked the cabin door and closed all the blinds Geet was unaware of it! Maan was drooling once again seeing Geet looking beautiful in her black-green saree and juda. He knew his Mishty is very decent and simple with very little to no make up as she doesn't believe in false behaviour and look. It is this simplicity that adds to her beauty, elegance, grace and poise! Maan with strong self-control brought his desires and emotions in order. Maan tried behaving like a boss with Geet, and both got down to work. He had told Pari and rest of the staff to "DO NOT DISTURB" as they have to re-design few portions of layout as now the client wanted a more adventrous design with KC being involved!

After an hour of intense work seeing Geet bent over a blue print, Maan asked, "Geet, Dhruv kaun hai?" Geet ignored his question and got up to go saying, "Sir, aap ne jo changes kahe hain, mai jald se jald poora kar doongi! Yeh lijiye!" Geet fowarded Maan a white envelope. ("Geet who is Dhruv?" Geet ignored his question andgot up to go saying, "Sir, I make the stated changes as soon as possible. This is for you!")
"Yeh kya hai?" (What is this?)
"Mera 'Resignation Letter'! Main Chopra Sir ko denewali thi, magar aap ne unofficially charge le liya hai, iss liye aap ko de rahi hoon!" Geet went towards the door but it refused to open. "Sir mujhe jaane dijiye!" ("This is my Resignation Letter'! I was going to hand it over to Mr. Chopra, but as you have unofficially taken over, I'm handing it to you!" Geet went towards the door but it refused to open. "Sir, please let me leave!")
"Geet abb tum iss kamre se tab bahaar jaa sakti ho jab hum dono ke beech mei jo saari 'galatfahmiyaan' hain woh dur ho jaayen."tha!" ("Geet, now you will only leave this room after all our misunderstandings are cleared.)
"Sir, humare beech koi galatfahamiyaan nahi hain!" (There are no misunderstandings amongst us!)
"Tumhe lagta hai ki mai "shaadi-shuda" hoon, haan hoon!" There was a loud gasp from Geet as Maan had expected.
"Magar meri patni ka naam Sasha nahi balki MRS. GEETIKA MAAN SINGH KHURANA hai! Geetika se meri shaadi che saal pehle ho gayi thi "Farewell Party" ke din. Maine "Geetika ki maang apne katte huwe angoote ke khoon se bhari thi" aur usse apni Maa ki di hui chain aur pendant "mangalsutra" ke roop mei pehnaya tha! Phir maine apni 'Mishty' ko bahut pyaar kiya!" ("You feel that I'm married, yes I am!" There was a loud gasp from Geet as Maan had expected. "But my wife's name is NOT Sasha but its MRS. GEETIKA MAAN SINGH KHURANA .I got married to Geetika six years back at the day of "Farewell Party"! I filled her parting with my bleeding thumb and made her wear my gold chain & pendant like "mangalsutra". Then I loved my 'Mishty' a lot!")
"Aap ko yeh sab yaad hai? Mujhe to laga tha ki..." (You remember everything? I thought...)
"Mai sab bhul gaya?" (That I have forgotten?)
"Sasha Ma'am ne aapke drink me toh dawaai milaayi thi." (Sasha Ma'am had drugged you.)
"Haan! Milaayi thi, iss liye kuch baate bhul gaya hoon. Magar apni shaadi nahi bhula. Kya tum mujhe sab bataaogi, apne Pati ko?" (Yes! She drugged me thats why I forgot somethings but not our marriage! Will you tell your husband what happened?)
"Maan Sir, abb bataane se kya fayadaa? Sab khatam ho gaya hai!" (What is the use of telling now when everything has finished?)
"Kyun mujhe tumhare pati ke roop mei jaane ka haq nahi? Mujhe yeh jaane ka haq nahi ki humare bacche he saath kya hua?" (Don't I have a right as your husband to know? Don't I have a right to know what happened to our child?)
"Haan! Haq hai!" (Yes! You have the right!) Geet's eyes had become misty hearing "humare bacche". "Uss din, Sasha Ma'am aapko Hotel ke kamre mei chodhkar apne boy-friend, Rahul se baat karne gayeen aur maine ander se darwaaz band kar diya! Phir ------ (That day Sasha Ma'am left you in Hotel room and went to talk to her boy-friend, Rahul outside, and I locked the door from inside! Then--)
Inside the room, Maan in his drunk state did not have any sense of where or with whom he was?
"Tum kaun ho? Sasha?" (Who are you? Sasha?)
"Nahi mai Geet hoon!" (No! I'm Geet!)
Hearing "Geet", he held her tightly and refused to let her go. But Geet kept trying to free her self. In this push and pull, the drink glass placed on the bed side table broke. In drunkard state of Maan, and his desire to have his love with him, he didn't realise when his hand touched the broken glass slitting his right thumb thereby making it bleed.
He kept saying, "Tum 'Maan ki Geet'ho! Tum meri "Mishty" ho! Tum 'Maan ki Geet'ho! Tum meri "Mishty" ho!" (You are 'Maan ki Geet'. You are My "Mishty"!) Maan started punctuating his each word with a kiss all over Geet's face on her eyes, forehead, lips, hair, neck etc.
"Maan Sir, mujhe jaane dijiye! Yeh theek nahi hain. Humara ek dussare par koi haq nahi hai!" (Maan Sir let me go ! Its not right! We don't have any rights on each other!)
"Haq?"(Right?) Maan brought his injured thumb with blood dripping and filled Geet's maang. Then took out a Thick Gold chain with a heavy gold pendant having "Maan" written on it from his neck and put it around Geet's neck. "ABB MUJHE TUM PAR POORA HAQ HAI! TUM MERI PATNI HO, GEET!" (Now, I have full rights on you. You are my wife, Geet!)
Stunning Geet. Maan's love coupled with effect of drink, drugs and his desire, there was no holding back. Geet was in a state of shock with this sudden event. She was helpless in front of her love for her Maan and refused to listen to her brain! Maan and Geet crossed all barriers and became one! Maan was not satisfied by making Geet his once but he kept loving her whole night till drink & drug took over him and went to sleep! Initially Geet had a feeling of fulfillment for being claimed by her love after their marriage. But in her after thoughts she realised that Maan will not remember anything in the morning! There was no witness to this marriage. The man who filled her maang and put chain in place of 'mangalsutra' on her will also not remember her! What will she answer her mother whom she respected a lot? She cleaned herself, got dressed and tidied the room best to her ability. Made Maan wear his clothes whatever she could! Dressed Maan's thumb. Then left the room at crack of dawn.
"Do hafte baad mujhe pataa chala ki aap ke "pyaar ka nazraana", Dhruv ke roop mei mujhe bahut jald milega." (Two weeks later I got news that I'll be getting 'my gift of love', in form of Dhruv.) Geet was found throwing up in the bathroom by Rano. When Rano asked Geet, she told full truth to Rano. The society may consider Rano her foster mother, but for Geet Rano was greater than her biological mother! Rano brought her up with lot of love, good values and proper education and never let Geet feel that she is Rano's adopted daughter! However, same could not be said about her foster father, Mr. Mohinderlal Handa. He had humiliated and ridiculed her at each and every stage of life! When Geet was telling Rano the truth, Mohinder overheard it and started giving choicest abuses to Geet. First time since she had come in Khanna House, Rano had requested Geet politely to leave their home but did not give her any valid reason!"Ek taraf Maa banne ki khushi thi aur dusari taraf ghar chodhne ka dukh! Magar Sasha Ma'am ne mujhse woh ek khushi bhi cheen li humare Dhruv ko mere se door karke!" Geet's eyes had started over flowing by now!(One side there was extreme happiness of being a mother and other side extreme sadness of leaving home! But Sasha Ma'am even snatched that happiness from me, by making our Dhruv leave me.)
Maan gathered Geet in his warm and protective embrace, "Chup ho jao Geet! Chup ho jao Mishty! Agle din mai jab akele utta mujhe maloom thaa ki maine kissi ke saath raat bitaayi hai. Phir mujhe tumhari ghaadi (watch) aur payal bistar par mili aur mujhe kuch kuch yaad aa gaya! Maine tumhe exams khatam hone ke baad bahut doondha magar tum mujhe nahin mili! Meera aur Pinky ko bhi nahin maloom tha ki tum kahaan ho? Uss ke baad Dad nahi rahe aur poore KC ki responsibility mere pe aa gayi! Magar in. Che saalon mei, ek din bhi aissa nahi beeta jab maine tumhe yaad naa kiya ho aur doondha naa ho!" (Next day when I wokeup alone, I knew I had spent night with someone. Then I saw your watch and payal on bed and remembered somethings. After my exams were over, I looked for you but didn't find you. Meera and Pinky also didn't know your whereabouts! Then Dad passed away and whole of KC's responsibility came on my shoulders! But in these 6 years not even one day passed when I didn't think or search for you!)
Geet took Maan's hands in her hands and rubbed them lovingly! "Tumhe aisa kyun lagta thaa ki meri Sasha se shaadi hui hai?" (Geet why did you feel that I have got married to Sasha?)
"Maan sir, Sasha mujh se milane "Farewell Party" ke teen mahine baad Gurgaon aayi theen aur boli ki woh mujh se dosti karna chahti hain, kyunki aap ki aur unki shaadi ho gayi hai. Aur woh aapke doston ko apne dost bhi banna chahti hain. Maine unse poocha ki agar unhone shaadi ki hai toh bataa kyun nahi rahi sabko? Sasha Ma'am ne kahaa ke Dadimaa unhe pasand nahi karti aur sirf Munshiji ki ladki samjhati hain! Aap ki shaadi ho gayi, mera dil toot gaya. Bahut mann kiya ki aap ko jaa kar apni shaadi ki yaad dilaon aur Dhruv ke baare mei bataon. Magar phir khudh ko roka ki kya bataongi, kyunki mere paas toh koi saboot bhi nahi, aur aap ki khushaal shaadi shuda zindaagi barbaad ho jaayegi! Ek din maine Sasha Ma'am ko apne dost, Rahul se baat karte sunn liya ki WOH AAP KO, MERE PARIVAAR, AUR MERE DOSTON KO MAAR DAALENGE AGAR MUJHE UNKE SACH KA PATAA CHAL GAYA AUR MAINE AAP LOGON KO SACH BATAANE KI KOSHISH KI ! Main aap sab se bahut pyaar karti hoon aur aap mei se kissi ko bhi nahi kho sakti. "MAINE HUMARE DHRUV KO PEHLE HI KHO DIYA! Mujhe mera Dhruv laa dijiye, phir mai aap ki zindagi mei wapis kabhi nahi aaongi main vada karti hoon! Mera Dhruv laa dijiye! Mera...Dhruv... laa... dijiye!" Geet broke down crying hysterically, her weak body could not take anymore stress and fainted.
("Maan Sir, Sasha Ma'am came to meet me three months after"Farewell Party" in Gurgaon, India ,she said that she wants to become friends with me as you both are married now! She would befriend all your friends. I asked why she hasn't told about her marriage to anyone? She said that Dadimaa doesn't like her and only considers her as Munshiji's daughter. When I heard about your marriage, I was heart-broken. Many times I felt like coming to you and reminding you of our marriage and telling about our Dhruv but stopped myself thinking I have no proof, why spoil your blissful marital life? Then one day, I heard Sashap talking to her friend Rahul that they will murder you, my family and my friends, if I came to know their truth and tell anyone. I love you all a lot! I can't loose anyone of you! "I have already lost our Dhruv! Please bring back my Dhruv, then I will never return in your life, I promise! Please bring back my Dhruv! Please...bring... back...my... Dhruv!"Geet broke down crying hysterically, her weak body could not take anymore stress and fainted.)

Hearing Geet's promise Maan became concerned and realised that he has to get things done fast!
