CHAPTER 17

"Kaisi lagi???" Geet asked Maan, flashing all her teeth in a wide smile as she showed her finger-adorned ring, which she chose for herself.

"Errr...yea...I mean Wooow, errr achi hai, bahut achi," Maan replied trying his best to sound convincing.

"Toh phi raise kyun keh rahe ho," Geet inquired as she eyed him suspiciously.

"Aise kaise??? Areh Geet, it's good I mean it's really nice, very unique, very very unique," he again tried, as he emphasised on the last bit.

"Haina???!!! Mujhe bhi aisa lagta hai," she said grinningly.

"Yea!!! Of course, I mean, not everyone choose a BLACK Diamond as an engagement ring, right??? Ek dum one piece hai... tumhaari tarah," he said the last bit in a mutter as he plastered a smile on his face. Well, if she likes it, then so be it, he told himself. And it does look pretty, though, doesn't it???

And he proceeded to make the payment.

******************************

"Waise Maan, raaste mein who Infiniti Mall aati hai na, toh please stop there," Geet said after a while, in the car, as she kept adoring her ring.

"Kuch lena hai kya?" Maan asked her as he took the right side at the round about.

"Haan woh, actually jab Mummy thi na, she always used to say how a saree is the best wear for women, toh issiliye," she said in a low voice as she was reminded of her late mother.

"Areh Geet, there's no need for that, Dadima might be old, but trust me, she is not the typical Dadis, bahut modern khayaalat ki hai," Maan reassured her.

"That's all very nice, but I still want to wear a saree, I mean aise working clothes main nahi miloongi unse," Geet persisted.

"Ok fine, as you wish, Your Highness," Maan gave up, knowing she already made up her mind. "So infiniti mall it is," he added as he flashed a smile at her.

******************************

"Oye!!! Muh toh band karlo," Geet said to a dazed Maan as she went to him after changing into the saree she just bought.

"Mesmerising," he said as he kept staring at her which did bring the red hue on her face.

"Thank you very much but continue your staring session later. We'll be late Maan and you said that Dadima hates latecomers. Pehle din se unki bad books mein nahi parna chahti," Geet said worriedly.

"Ok yea," Maan realised as he was finally brought out of his trance. "Well, after you... Miss," he added teasingly as he made way for Geet to go.

"Thanks, my dear Student," she playfully said.

"Hawww!!!"

Geet had taken just few steps when he heard Maan exclaim from behind. Oh well, this was indeed coming, she thought to herself as she chuckled slightly and then turned around to face him.

"Kya huwa Maan," she innocently asked.

"Geet!!! Tumhari saaree ki back kahan hai??? Shop mein bhool aayi ho kya???" he sarcastically asked although he was nearly fuming inwardly.

"It's called backless Maan!!! Grow up..." she replied trying her best to muffle her laugh.

"Dadima se milne aisi jaaogi???" he tried using the Dadima-weapon. Aaaha, ab dekhta hoon.

"Dadima toh modern types ki hai...aisa hi kuch kaha than a tumne... Am sure she'll like it, don't worry" she replied in a composed and calm self as she caressed his right cheek which left Maan dumb-founded. Khood ki pair par khulaari marna isse kehte hai, he told himself.

"Yea right!!!" he relentlessly said knowing there was not much he could add. After all, he only said that. "Ab chalo," he added.

******************************

"Meri Saaree kaisi lagi Maan?" Geet teasingly asked as they made their way towards KC.

"Hmmm!!! Tumhaare back pe joh window hai, use chod ke, bahut achi hai," he replied annoyingly.

"Ohhh!!! Someone looks annoyed," Geet said.

"Annoyed??? Who??? Me??? Pfff!!! Never!!!," Maan shrugginly said, focusing totally on the road.

"I never said you," Geet added with a giggle.

"Ha-Ha-Ha," Maan mocked her, "So funny...Kuch bhi... Waise, what's up with your taste buds today?" he inquired.

"Hein???!!!" Geet questioned back, not understanding.

"I thought you hated black... toh phir yeh sab... I mean Black ring... black saree... you have fluctuating tastes kya?" he teased her.

"Idiot!!!" She tapped her forehead. "Areh, I hate it but it's your favourite color na, issiliye..." she explained.

"Really???" Maan asked for a confirmation, looking at her as he hit the brakes having reached KC. And here, he was *mocking* her choice inwardly when it was all done for him.

"Nahi, main toh mazaaq kar rahi hoon. Yeh sab toh Maine Professor Agnihotri ke liye kiya. Kya hai na, mujhe woh bahut pasand hai," Geet sarcastically replied, crossing her hands in front of her chest as she pretended to be angry.

"Ok, I'm sorry... Reserve all your anger and complaints for later, abhi let's go... Dadi must be waiting, remember???" Dadima always come to help, he victoriously told himself as a light smile crept on her lips and she turned around to open the car door but she was soon stopped.

"Ruko Geet!!!" Maan exclaimed. "Allow me, Miss," he added in a husky voice, with a wink when she looked back at him with a confused look.

"Allowed!!!" she playfully replied.

******************************

"Maan, mujhe na bahut darr lag raha hai," Geet said clutching Maan's hands, as they walked along the pathway.

"Geet!!! No need to worry. Annie and Vicky se tum mil hi chuke ho," he said and then receiving that oh-really look from her, he clarified, "no, I mean, you did see them on that day. They're still small. Khood mujhse abhi tak darte hai, tumhe kya daraaenge," he gave a forced laugh as he tried easing the atmosphere with his bad attempt at a joke and the serious look on Geet's face did tell him he didn't succeed.

"I mean, they are very nice. I'm sure you'll mix with them very quickly, trust me," he reassured her. "And Dadima!!! Remember I told you, she is very chilled out. Tumhari language mein toh she's very...errr... how do you say that... oh yea, bole toh bindaas type," he added in a very tapori style which did make Geet laugh.

"You sound cute when you talk like that," she remarked while he rang the bell. Dadima has this habit of locking the door from inside whenever Maan would be out despite all the bodyguards and cameras. She could not trust anyone as much as she trusted him, she would always say.

"How cute???" Maan asked kiddingly.

"Veryyy cute!!!" she replied as she playfylly pulled her cheeks on both side while he pretended to be in pain.

"You're late!!! And by FIVE minutes, that is!!!" they heard a voice as the door opened.

Geet gulped hard as she heard her. Not what she was expecting!!!

Ooopsss!!!!
