SS 'NO TITLE' updating tomoro - Page 6

...after the talk and having dinner the families returned back to their places,...

Later after this everyone in geet's family was thinking how to call geet back home, since they knew if they started with the topic of marriage with geet,,,she definitely was not going to get back home and any other excuse of casual visit would go in vain... she was still quite upset with her parents for not supporting her decision..when she wanted to work...

so, finding no other choice geet's bhabhi naina threw the idea of telling geet that her father was not well and was missing her and wanted to see her...everyone knew that geet loved her father more than anything in the world and would do anything for him...specially when put under emotional drama...

So then they rang up and as expected geet did not hear the whole call after the statement that her father was not well...she straight shouted out that I am coming back home...

Geet flew back the next day since that was the only flight available from Mumbai to Amritsar...since she was in Mumbai for some office work...she reached home around 8 in the morning...

The moment her bhabi opened the door for her the first thing she asked was... how was her dad and straight went to his room without waiting for her reply...

Her father was awake but still in bed watching television...he was very happy to see his daughter back after two years...geet ran to her father and hugged him tight...

And it was a moment i cannot put in words...{"you people can feel it if your a girl and specially a papa's girl at that"}...after hugging each other to heart's content both were teary eyed/...

Both father and daughter sat cuddled up in the bed talking about the memories...talking about each others lives...later they had breakfast together...

All d complains were forgotten...and the family was enjoying out their peaceful moments...having their gala time...with joy and laughter...

Like that the whole day passed by...

Later that night after dinner geet's mother signalled her father to talk about maan to geet...but the father he was ...who actually got his daughter back after so long,,,. wanted to prolong the talk for later since he did not want to upset his daughter anymore...but one more look from his wife and he knew he would have to do it eventually...

So later that night when everyone was off to bed...geet's father called out to geet to come to his room before she sleeps...since he had something important to discuss..

So after getting changed into her night stuff geet went to her parents room...;.

G: ji papa...you wanted to talk about something...

P:hmmm...but before that get me a cup of malai tea...i haven't had it since paste two years..no ones makes it betr than you do...

Geet smilingly went to the kitchen...and made a cup of tea for her father adding extra malai to it...

G: papa here you go...your tea

P:thanks ..come sit here (asking her to sit her in front of him on the bed)...

P:we (me and your mother) have something to talk to you...i know you really dread this topic...when we discuss about it...but beta eventually you would have to get settled down in you life at some point...see now you have the job of your dream and you even live alone ...like the way you always wanted...don't you think now is the apt time for u to get married...see you don't really have to settle down in some arranged marriage...we don't mind if you already like someone...the only thing that matters to us is that the boy needs to be from some good family...nothing else matters to us...you can openly tell us what is in your heart beta...

G:no papa...there isn't anything like that...i don't have anyone in my life...i have seriously not thought of anyone in that way...

Geet's father: but beta that is no way to live...at the moment you have us...whatever be we are going to stand with each other in all evens and odds...but we are getting old...

G:papa not that line please...

Geet's father:geet...!!! see this is the reality...we would eventually have to go...but before that i want to see you settled and happy in front of my eyes...see your brother is now busy in his own life...he has his own family...although you both love each other a lot...but at the end of the day his priorities are they ...and eventually these priorities would become the center of his life...and he won't have that much a time for u ...i don't want you to be alone anymore bacha...get married geet...you would get someone to love...

i am not forcing you down to give me a verdict not...but i hope you would rethink over my words...and come down to some decision ...and if you still deny i want a good enough reason for it... (all serious mood)

But beta think over it...please if not for youself do it for us ...your parents...i want some answer from you tomorrow...

G: hmmm...

After that geet went to her room...and she sat down thinking till late at night...thinking over what her dad has told her...

...Geet's pov...

Should i really settle down...but i have been doing all good by myself from the past 2 years...do i really need someone in my life to take care of myself...

Geet's subconscious..: don't forget geet all those nights of loneliness when you wished you could ask your parents to come and live with you... all those festivals when you wanted someone by your side to make them merry and joy...all those times when you saw your colleages taking down holidays to spend them wth their families...all those times you sat in the corner of ur house reading a book...so that you don't have to feel the void in your heart...all those countless time you felt alone...lonely in the middle of night...all those dreams you had that made you get up in the middle of the night...there is no doubt you are good at bending the rules ..and you are really stubborn on your decisions...but you know it too..., how much scared you are of being left alone in life...you have your moments of happiness when you fulfill your own demands..when you achieve something out of your hardwork...but real deep down you know...all this is momentarily happiness...when you grow down old...and you won't have people by your side as they would be busy in their lives you would eventually regret up doing this to your own self...no one is always right...and sometimes bending down doesn't mean you are weak...it just means you are smart enough to make the right decisions...think over it geet and don't let your ego ..,your stubbornness rule you this time...although they have let you made some right decisions in past...but don't let them fool you ...think over what your father have told you...

we know we are not capable enough to make a choice in this matter for our ownself...coj with experiences...we had we are a really very bad guess of anyone's character...you know your family would do you good...give them a chance...let them make this one decision for you...

After all these thoughts of herself...geet was quite shaken up ...so later that night she went to her parent's room and lied down in between her parents...her parents got tensed and asked if everything was fine and she said she just wanted to sleep with them today...

The next day morning brought with itself a new sun...a sun that cleared the fog in geet's mind and heart...last night was an eye opening night for her...although she was initially upset with her parents telling her everything in such straight way...but eventually she came to the realisation that they are in no way wrong...and then her own subconscious was so true about everything she always tried to hide and overcome showing the no need attitude...but now she had made the decision...she ought to give herself a chance... and she would do it with the blessings from the almighty...she would throw all her fears out of the window..after once talking to her babaji...so the first thing she did was get ready and go to the golden temple...and she was thankful to god that her parents did not ask for either her answer or her reason to go all alone ...and that so early when they knew she was not at all a morning person in her holidays...

She then went to the golden temple...and prayed to god...babaji... i have decided to tell my parents a yes for marriage...but i am doing all this by putting my trust on you...i know whatever you would do for me would be the best...i just want to ask you one thing... no heartbreaks for me ..i won't be able to take that...i am braving up to make this decision ...but no heartbreak please...and rest ..you know what all i want...i am going to let my parents make this decision for me...bless me ...and be with me always..love you...

Later she came back home...and straight went to her parents...

G:papa i am ready to get married...but...

Geet's father: but what...

G: i don't really have looked out to any guy in that way...so i am letting you make this decision for me...you can start looking out for guys...but eventually i will hold the final say...is it ok with you people...

Geet's father: oh my gudiya...everything will be done according to your wish ...do not worry.

(pause and then says)..and well we already have seen someone ...and we would like you to meet him...

G: what...so guys have already planned all this up...i can't believe it...all this up was a set up to fix me up with a guy...

(well geet did not mind..but she faked down her anger and upset mood...,coj since she had made up her mind to get married...she was fine with everything...)

Geet's father: please beta...don't get upset over it...we love you ..i am sory...

Geet:oh papa don't be sorry...i was just pulling your leg...

It's ok...call the guy...i will meet him up...since this confidence in your face tells me ...u are all satisfied about him...so i guess introductions with me is the only final round left...

Geet;s father: hmmm... i will call him up and let him know to come ...geet..!!

G: ji

Geet's father: thank you bacha...i love you bacchha... you will always be my favourite child...god bless you always...

and like that her father parted to make the call to maan...
