Geet watched as Maan silently played with his breakfast, he was holding the toast and seemed lost somewhere else, he'd only taken one bite and that was it.

"Aap pareshaan hai? she questioned softly.

He snapped his eyes to her then leaned back placing the toast back down. "I don't know Geet. Badi ma is... she's taking things too far he was tensed and worried what he can possibly do without landing Alisha in trouble and without having to hurt badi ma in such an extent because she was old and edgy so it was normal but this was getting too way out off hand.

"I don't want you to go to the mansion, if they come here fine, but I don't want you there he told her.

"Par.. main kais...

"Geet please, I'm saying it for your good and mine

Before Geet could respond they heard footsteps and turned their heads.

Geet frowned seeing Alisha, she was feeling jealous within seeing her here especially now that since things have escalated she had expected Alisha to stay away, Maan narrowed his eyes at her in confusion.

"What do you want Alisha? Maan questioned.

"I'm sorry for what mom said she started.

"Its between us Alisha, I don't want anyone involved, not even you he intervened standing to his feet and turned to meet her face.

"Its my fault so I am involved as much as you are, dekho Maan I never wanted this to happen and I'm sorry

Maan sighed, there was nothing that could take place to change it so why bother stressing over the past. "Forget it. Just... just try explaining to her this wedding didn't happen because it wasn't in our hands, it's Allah's will Alisha, don't mention anything, tell her you've got someone else out there for you and its not in our hands because if I was to say it she won't listen he explained.

"I'll try she mumbled knowing too well if her mother didn't listen to Maan then why will she listen to her. She passed a smile then turned to walk out.

"Alisha Maan called as he remembered something, Geet watched as he pulled out his phone and scrolled something.

"There's a few jobs going here he stepped closer showing her the site. "They're looking for a female receptionist, and there's quite a few more, check them and please badi ma with a job

She noted the site then nodded. "Alright. Thanks

"You're welcome he responded and turned to Geet who had her eyes on Alisha as she walked away.

"I'm going to get ready for work, I'm going to be late or else Maan pressed a quick kiss to her cheek and walked upstairs, she turned her head watching as Alisha walked away then followed after a moment, she couldn't help the burning ache within her, she was human after all and jealousy was part of her nature, she hadn't let jealousy overcome her before but right now, she couldn't help it, this was her husband, her life.

"Alisha Geet called as she stepped out.

Alisha turned around and looked at her watching Geet as she approached. "Hmm?

Geet fiddled with the end of her pallu, she didn't know how to say the words because it wasn't in her to be mean, she couldn't do it. "I know you and Maan share a relationship, you're both comfortable with each other but... she paused then looked up to meet Alisha's eyes. "I want you to keep a distance from him she stated swallowing past the lump forming in her throat.

"Geet I...

"I know you don't love him or something Geet intervened. "But you both were engaged, you were first choice for him she whispered dipping her head. "I.. I just want you to keep a distance from him she mumbled and turned walking away without waiting for her response.

Alisha watched her retreating back then turned walking back to the mansion, she looked at her mother sat in the hall, she didn't say anything but climbed up the stairs.

"Alisha Husna called.

"Ji?

"Tu wahan kyun gayi ti? Woh Maan ne itna kuch kahan tujhe koi parwa nahi hai? she questioned angrily.

"Ammi aap ne bhi kitna kuch keh diya na? aap ne uss pe haat uta liya she responded tired of hearing the complaints of her mother each day, every day.

"Woh Maan ke tarah tera zabaan bhi lamba hogaya hai She retorted narrowing her eyes angrily.

Alisha mentally rolled her eyes. Hayye Allah please ammi ko koi akal dijiye, unke mountain ke ego ko todh dijiye she mentally prayed silently.

Geet lifted her hands as she offered her dua once she'd finished praying, she closed her eyes and softly whispered her little want. She prayed she would overcome this jealousy and hoped it doesn't create any sort of problem between her and Maan. Jealousy was a bitter poison that can slowly eat away at a person and harm relationships massively, Geet didn't want that poison to react and affect her relationship with Maan.

Saira smiled as she stood near Geet watching her as she made Maan's favourite dish that Saira just taught her, Sameera sat at the breakfast stool with Crystal sleeping comfortably near her feet, Hena sat on the countertop and Nazmeen sat on the dining room chair watching easily since it was open kitchen and diner.

"Ammi aap Dekhiye Geet scooped some in a bowl and passed her the dish placing a plain roti on a separate plate.

Geet chewed her lip nervously watching her expressions, she knew she wouldn't be perfect like Saira's because Geet herself tasted that dish and it was surperb and quite delicious, and there's nothing like a mother's cooking.

"Bohut accha hai Saira exclaimed happily pleased with the taste, it was perfect and almost like her own cooking. She pressed a kiss to Geet's forehead. "Maan ko yeh bahut pasand hoga

Geet grinned happily.

"Bhabhi you're not going to have all of it na? so just keep a bowl full for bhai and you and just give us the pan, we'll take it back to the mansion with us Sameera spoke.

"Ghar pe kitna khana baaki hai woh sab khatm karo pehle, waste mat karo Saira smacked her head. "Tere waje se khana waste hota rehta hai

"Maine kya kiya?

"Tu complain karti rehti hai

"Toh kya karu? Aap khana accha nahi banate

"Toh tune khud banayi hai kya? Saira replied shaking her head.

"I know. Sameera I think we should start cooking, or else bhai might thrust us with the news of a guy coming then we're married

Then your mother in law kicking you out for not being able to cook Nazmeen commented in Arabic laughing.

Geet and Saira broke into chuckles, whilst Sameera and Hena looked at them confused.

"What did you say khala? Sameera asked.

"None of your business. Anyways its getting late, Maan must be coming back, come on, we've got our own dinner to prepare Nazmeen spoke reminding them.

"Apna khayal rakna saira patted her cheek lovingly walking away with the others.

"Arre? Geet muttered seeing Crystal peacefully sleeping. "Sameera's so forgetful she mumbled and picked the cat up, Geet cuddled it and sat on the sofa with the fur ball stroking it lovingly.

"She doesn't take care of you haina? Geet mumbled near Crystal's ear rubbing her stomach with her fingers making Crystal purr happily.

"Crystal you hungry? Geet questioned as the little white fur ball rolled on her lap.

"Ge... Maan stopped as he just entered and saw Geet with Chrystal on her lap. "Why have you got that here for? he asked.

"She's sleeping and Sameera left her by mistake

"So you decided to play mummy? he questioned placing his laptop bag down on the opposite sofa and stood on that side rather than going near Geet.

"Yes I did she replied and pressed a kiss just behind Crystal's ear.

"Geet urgh.. Kya kar rahe ho?

"They're the cleanest animal's, they keep themselves clean and they are modest she responded and placed Crystal down carefully on their sofa.

"You're treating her like a baby Geet, put her down on the floor he told her. "Fur's going to be all over the sofa now
"Aap na? You're being so mean to her she frowned.

"Its an animal he headed towards the kitchen.

"So? Like that you're human, I'm sure she'd like to push you off the bed and sleep there she giggled as she stated.

"Remind me to push you off tonight he spoke grabbing a glass and poured himself some water.

"I'll just lock you out and sleep with Crystal instead she joked pressing a kiss to his cheek then grabbed 2 plates for them.

Maan helped placing the pan on the table mats whilst Geet brought the bowl with the hot rotis and a bowl of rice over.

"I'm starving Maan mumbled as he scooped up some rice onto his plate whilst Geet served the curry dish.

Maan was surprised and looked at Geet. "Ammi ne banayi? he questioned as he didn't know Geet could cook this dish since she hadn't made it before.

She shook her head. "Ammi ne aaj sikhaya she stated proudly.

"Geet tum wahan gayi? he frowned.

"Nahi nahi.. woh sab yahan aaye te she explained quickly. "Ab aap khaiye aur mujhe bataiye kaisa hai?

Maan praised her kissing the back of her hand after he tasted it, he thanked her for learning it just to please him.

"Mujhse naraz ho? Maan questioned embracing Geet from behind as she went quiet suddenly after dinner.

"Nahi toh she mumbled shaking her head.

"Toh kya baat hai? he pressed a kiss to her ear admiring her reflection in the mirror.

She chewed her lower lip and turned hugging him tightly, she didn't want to tell him she hated it when Alisha came to get Crystal and that Alisha's presence annoys her in a way.

"Is something the matter? he asked brushing her hair with his fingers in a soothing manner.

She pulled her head back dipping her eyes to his shirt, her fingers played with his button as she contemplated whether she should tell him, he'd only laugh at her.

"Woh.. I'm jealous she admitted quietly.

"Of? A smirk tugged his lips as he looked at her in amusement.

"Dekhiye hasiye mat she muttered pouting her lips. "Main sacchi mein jealous hoon, mujhe bura lagta hai, aur gussa bhi aata hai she sniffed.

"Geet Maan softly called her name alarmed seeing her almost crying, he tilted her chin up so he could meet her eyes.

"Kisse jealous ho?

She frowned and contemplated, she knew he'll laugh. "Alisha se

Maan was surprised for a moment, Geet looked up at him then frowned seeing him throw his head back laughing, she moved away crossing her arms around herself as he laughed.

"Pata ta aap hasenge she mumbled.

"Tum Alisha se? he laughed.

"Hassne wali baat nahi hai she whined, he didn't understand how she was feeling, she was the one facing his ex fianc, it might not mean anything but for Geet it triggered an insecure feeling within her, whereas for Maan he didn't know what was there to be jealous of, he's not exactly friendly with Alisha, he's hardly talking to her and his relationship with Geet is more valuable than his relationship with Alisha.

Maan gripped her upper arms and turned her to him. "Hasne wali baat hai Geet. Alisha? Seriously? he asked with a smile.

"Aap samajhte kyun nahi hai? she almost cried. "Usko mujhe dekhna hai, har waqt yahi yaad hai ke woh kabhi aap ki mangitar ti

Maan tsked and pulled her closer enveloping her into a bear hug, his tall big frame hiding her in his arms. "You've got nothing to be jealous of. Believe me Geet, she's nothing before you, you mean a lot. And I mean a lot he admitted pulling her out gently and cradled her cheek in his palm. "Khuda ke kasam Geet I love and you're going to be the only woman whom I love so much after ammi he stated firmly rubbing his nose with hers, Geet's heart elated as she heard him, he loved her. Maan loved her. She pressed her face into the hollow of his neck hugging him tightly. She couldn't have been more happier than learning Maan loved her.

Geet closed her eyes as she felt his hands tracing her back, she felt his lips trail from her ear with butterfly kisses down the side of her neck, her hands tightened on his shoulder pressing her nails, she tilted her head back as his lips continued to tease her, she pressed her eyes tightly, her head felt so heavy suddenly, Maan gripped her tightly around her waist as she nearly fell to the floor.

"Geet he patted her cheek worriedly wondering what caused her to fall suddenly. "Geet? he panicked and tried to calm himself down, he scooped her up and placed her on their bed, Maan then pulled out his phone calling his mother then the doctor.

Maan cuddled Geet closer as she lay tired and exhausted, she slowly opened her eyes and looked at him.

"What did the doctor say? she mumbled.

"You're stressing Maan replied tucking her hair behind. "What were you thinking? he questioned.

She didn't respond but tucked herself closer into his arms pressing her cheek to his chest and closed her eyes, Maan smiled inwardly she thought she was pregnant for a while, even he did so.

"I thought so too Maan admitted knowing she wouldn't speak up.

She shrugged to which he smiled.

"Do you want a baby Geet? he questioned.

Did she? She didn't know, she couldn't see herself right now with a baby, she'd panic and probably fail as a mother, she shook her head. "Not right now, maybe later she whispered softly.

He nodded understanding, he loved kids but he himself couldn't see himself having a child right now, he wouldn't mind if she was pregnant, he'd be elated but a baby so soon, it'd only been a few weeks of them being married, he'd just begun to know his wife.

"And I want you to stop stressing Maan pressed a kiss to her brow remembering the doctor's words, she was exhausted and she was stressed.

"I'm not stressing she countered back softly.

"Sure you're not. Geet I know you're insecure of Alisha but its nothing, me and her we don't have the friendship we once had or anything, I spend more time with you than anyone else

She nodded sadly because within she was still jealous.

"You believe me right? he cupped her cheek and tilted her head up so he could see her properly.

"I do she muttered dipping her eyes down to his chest. "But I don't like her, and I don't like seeing her going to work with you or anything, she comes up to you for every little thing she mumbled pouting. Maan smiled as he admired her little pout, she looked so damn adorable right now.

"I love you and only you he whispered inching closer and rubbed his nose with hers.

She closed her eyes blushing furiously and within was elated hearing them once again.

"I like you too she mumbled which only made Maan laugh softly beneath his breath and he wrapped his arms around her tightly. Geet closed her eyes pressing herself to his chest and let sleep take over her eyes.
