CHAPTER 20

"Who's it???" Geet asked hearing some noise around the terrace area attached to her bedroom, some 1 hour after Maan and the others left. Receiving no reply, she proceeded there to see for herself. She was sure she heard a noise.

As she approached, she could see a hand trying to get a grip. Quickly, she bent over to see.

"Hawww!!!!" she exclaimed covering her mouth. "Maan!!! Tum yahan kya kar rahe ho???" she asked, wondering why he was hanging there when he could have easily used the door.

"Monkey Monkey practice kar raha hoon. Bahut din huwe na, issiliye," he replied, heavy on sarcasm, as he looked at Geet irritatedly.

"Itna sarcastic hone ki kya zaroorat hai. Maine toh sirf ek simple sawaal kiya tha," she frowned at him, "aur tum darwaaze se kyun nahi aaye???" she questioned him.

"Saare sawaal abhi poochna hai tumhe???" he questioned back. "Pehle mujhe upar kheecho, bewaqoof ladki... main yahan se gira na toh bin-bihaayi vidwa ban jaaogi tum," he said worriedly.

"Oh sorry sorry," Geet said, pulling him up as she realised he was hanging in mid-air.

"Phewww!!!" Maan exhaled loudly as he straightened his clothes, only to find Geet staring at him, her arms crossed over her chest.

"What???" he asked.

"Care to explain Mr Monkey???" she told him back.

"Oh!!! Yea... who actually, I didn't come by the door because I didn't want Pinky to know... Usse pata chal jaata toh kal Adi ko batati aur Adi ko pata chalTa toh woh un 3 idiots ko bataega and phir kya hoga...I don't need to tell you," he explained.

"Oh!!!" she nodded, getting him. "But why did you come back??? Kuch bhool gaya kya???" she asked.

Lifting him hands in the air, Maan exclaimed, "Why me only???"

"Maan!!! Since when have you started talking to the sky?" Geet quizzed, being worried for him.

"Geeet!!! Are you really dumb ya tum pretend kar rahi ho???" he asked her. "Areh I came back for you silly!!!" he explained.

"Kyun???" she asked innocently.

"Tum ne hi toh kaha tha na... quality time and all!!!" he reminded her.

And then it dawned onto her. He came for her!!! She had expressed her wish of how she wanted to spend time alone with him. That is why he came back. Tu bhi na Geet!!! She chided herself.

"Aap mere liye waapas aaye???" she exclaimed.

"No!!! Pinky ke liye," he said sarcastically. "Obviously, tumhare liye Geet," he added huskily when she frowned at his sarcasm. "Ab Chalo!!!" he quickly added.

"Kahan???"

"Ice cream khaane," he said winking at her.

"Abhi???"

"Nahi kal!!!" he rolled his eyes at her. "Of course abhi... issiliye toh waapas aaya hoon."

"But Maan," she glanced at the clock. "It's nearly midnight and aap ko kal office jaana hai and mujhe bhi kaam hai kal," she reminded him.

"Geet!!! Your class is in the afternoon tomorrow and in case you forgot I AM the OWNER of KCABA!!! So, main jab chahoon jaa sakta hoon. Now no more excuses, let's go," he said before she could refuse.

"Ok fine, but we're taking the door," she told him. "Don't worry about Pinky. She's a lady kumbhkaran," she said, laughing, referring how she sleeps like a log.

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

"Chocolate!!!" she said to which Maan frowned a little.

"Ummm... Ok. One Chocolate flavour and one Vanilla flavour," Maan told the ice-cream vendor.

And then he made her sit on the bonnet of his car that he had parked along Marine Drive while he stood in front of her.

"Maan, you should try this," Geet forwarded her spoon to him.

"I don't like chocolate flavour Geet, you know that," he reminded her.

"Toh, mix it with the vanilla one... trust me... amazing taste hogi," she said excitedly.

"Ewww!!! I don't like *dirty eating*," he said with a frown. He absolutely hated mixing 2 different flavours. Each had their own taste, why spoil it, he would always say.

"Areh Maan sach mein, bahut acha hota hai. Tumhein nahi karna toh na karo but main toh karoongi," she said as she took a spoon from his ice cream and mixed it with hers.

"Ummm!!! So yummy!!!" she said as she relished it.

Seeing her expressions, Maan suddenly had this urge to try it, but one look at it and he felt like puking. But Geet did catch that.

"Maan!!! How about you close your eyes and I make you taste it?" she suggested with a grin.

"What??? No Geet, it's ok," he said.

"Oh Cmon Maan!!! Please!!! Mere liye!!!" she pleaded and successfully so for he did close his eyes.

"So??? Kaisi lagi???" she asked as she gave him one spoon.

"Ummm!!! Actually it does taste yummy," he confessed.

"Dekha!!! I told you," she replied victoriously.

And then they ate their respective ice creams.

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

"Chalo na Maan!!! Dance karte hai," Geet said after a while as both lied on the car bonnet, with the wind blowing slightly, sending chiils through their body.

"What???" Maan looked at her unbelievingly. "Tumhare dimaag mein yeh sab ideas aate kahan se hai Geet???" he asked her. "Raat ke 1 baje, tumhare beech sarak mein dance karni hai???"

"Kyun??? Raat ke 12 baje, tumhein bhi ice cream khaani thi!!! Bhool gaye kya," she reminded him.

"Woh baat alag hai Geet," he said and then he continued knowing she will make a face if he did not agree. "Actually, mujhe ummm who... mujhe dance karna nahi aata, I mean aata hai but nahi aata... mera matlab ke ache se nahi aata," he confessed to her which invited a laugh from her.

"Tumhein dance karna nahi aata???" she asked in disbelief to which he shook his head negatively.

"So cute!!!" she said.

"What???"

"Don't worry, I will teach you," she suggested as she slid down the car bonnet. "Come."

"What???" Maan lifted himself and got into a sitting position. "Yahan??? Beech sarak mein," he asked incredulously.

"Haan toh??? Yahan pe kya problem???" she said shruggingly. "Ab aao bhi," she pulled him and needless to say, he had to follow suit.

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

Take my hand, take a breath
Pull me close and take one step
Keep your eyes locked on mine
And let the music be your guide

She forwarded her right hand for him to place his left one. Inhaling sharply, with a determination to do it, for her, he did so. Pulling him closer to her, she curled her thumb around his for a better grip and lifted his chin up, slightly, for a good posture. Looking in his eyes, she placed his right hand firmly on her hip as she wrapped her left hand around him. And then they slowly danced, with him letting her be his guide along with the music which played from her phone.

Won't you promise me?
(Now won't you promise me?)
(That you'll never forget)
We'll keep dancing
(To keep dancing)
Wherever we go next

Slowly, without breaking eye contact, they kept moving in rounds, as she let him feel at ease, putting aside all inhibitions and reluctance.

It's like catching lightening, the chances of finding
Someone like you
It's one in a million, the chances of feeling
The way we do

As their body started rhyming with the music, she could sense his ease. With that, she slowly loosened her grip to let him take the lead. Out of reflex, he lifted her and twirled her in the air, as she gazed upon him, smiling.

And with every step together
We just keep on getting better
So can I have this dance?
(Can I have this dance?)
Can I have this dance?

As he put her down, he kept twirling her around and occasionally dipping her a bit while he leaned forward, getting closer to her. He stared at the beautiful being infront of her, with all admiration and love he carried for her. Their eyes locked, they stayed in that position for a while until it started raining.

Oh, no mountain's too high and no ocean's too wide
'Cause together or not, our dance won't stop
Let it rain, let it pour, what we have is worth fighting for
You know I believe that we were meant to be! Oh!

Making her straight, they continued dancing, enjoying the rain drops. They danced slowly. Her scent taking over him, he pulled her closer. Her body fitted to his like a puzzle. Together, they moved to the song beats. Despite the rain, she could feel his heated breath on the nape on her neck.

It's like catching lightening, the chances of finding
Someone like you
It's one in a million, the chances of feeling
The way we do

Seizing the opportunity, he cupped her chin lovingly and slowly guided it to his face while their body kept moving to the music. Slowly, he captured her lips for a soft, sweet yet passionate kiss as she blinked her eyes for her approval. His hands moving up and down her back, she put her arms around his neck, pulling him closer, to feel the warmth of his body to cover up the shivering in the rain. That one kiss made them feel as one. One body... one soul... like the sea at Marine drive merged into the sky at the far end to become one.

And with every step together
We just keep on getting better
So can I have this dance?
(Can I have this dance?)
Can I have this dance?
Can I have this dance?
Can I have this dance?

After few minutes, they broke the kiss for some breath while their forehead rested on the other's.

"I can't believe what we just did," Maan said.

"The dance or the kiss," Geet asked bluntly as Maan gazed upon her, which sent red hues to her cheeks. She looked away, blushing slightly.

"Meri taraf dekho Geet," Maan said as he cupped her chin. "Pata hai Geet. We are so different from each other. We have totally different characteristics, yet I feel ecstatic in your company. I feel as if I'm at my best self whenever I am with you. You make me do crazy stuffs, yet I enjoy them... because I'm doing them with you," he confessed. "I don't know how we'll make it... but I do know that I love you... and I will love you all throughout my life. I do know that my love for you will keep on increasing and this itself is satisfying for me," he added. She could feel a lump in her throat at his honest confession. She hugged him tightly in reply.

"I know we'll make it," she said a while later when they broke their hug. Seeing his expression, she continued, "like vanilla and chocolate," she reminded him.

"Meaning???" he asked confusedly.

"See... Vanilla and Chocolate. Both have their respective taste. Vanilla has a clean, smooth taste while Chocolate is all dark and divine with a tinge of bitterness. Yet when we blended them together, we got the most delicious taste ever," she explained as she reminded him of their little experiment some times back.

"Oh!!!" Maan said as he took in her explanation. She really had her crazy way of seeing things, he thought with a smile. "Some day, I'll make sure to eat off that ice cream of you," he said after a while.

"Maaan!!!" she punched him. "Now who's being bold???" she asked putting her hands on her waist.

"Tumhare saath reh reh ke tumhari aadatein apnane laga hoon Geet," he teased her.

"Hawww!!! So mean," she said, and then pretending to be angry, turned around in mock anger.

"Acha, I'm sorry."

"Hmmm!!!"

"Sorry Geet!!!" She turned away further.

"Fine!!! Phir mat kehna," he said.

"Kya?"

"Yeh!!!!" And he started tickling her.

"Maaan!!! Stop it!!!" she tried escaping from his grip, being all ticklish.

But Maan was stronger. And so started, their little tickling session.

Once they regained their breath, they again lied on the car bonnet for a while, enjoying the moonlight as they made their future plans.

Up above, the stars twinkled, expressing their joy for the blessed couple.
