Geet rushed upstairs, meanwhile Maan informed Nakul not to prepare dinner for them..
Few minutes Later
Dressed in his casuals, Maan was busy in his phone walking to and fro in hall, waiting for Geet to show up.., sweet tingling sound of her bangles pulled his attention upstairs, there he found her dressed in simple white coloured salwar suit with silver border she looked angelic , her hairs were lossily tied in plaits, while a pinch of khol in her eyes and a small amount of gloss on her lips were enhancing her beauty.., unknown to Maan his eyes followed her each step, everything around him faded away at that moment, it was just Geet who grabbed his attention, he just kept looking at her without any thoughts or anything, it was just as if his eyes were not ready to look anywhere else..
The distance between them reduced as Geet came to him..,she was going to speak something but before she could Nakul came there..
Nakul- Geet beta , Happy Birthday!, and this brought Maan back to real world, and as he realized he soon averted his gaze from her..
Geet(smiled and bent down to seek Nakul's blessings)- Thank you kaka..
Nakul- god bless you my child, you get every happiness in life, always be happy..why didn't u tell before, thanks to Maan sir he told or else I would have missed your birthday..and he continued to complain and Geet gave her reason while Maan questioned himself for his lost state...
Maan(st)- gosh, were was I lost??
He glanced at Geet again, she was busy talking to Nakul, but when she felt him looking at her she stopped and looked at him..
Geet- kya??, she questioned thinking he wants to say something..
Maan- chale ??
Geet- ji..., bidding bye to Nakul Geet moved outwards ,while grabbing his brown leather jacket Maan followed her..
while moving towards the car,Geet turned back to him..
Geet- how am I looking??
Maan- nice!, saying so he step ahead to get inside his car while Geet made a grumpy face at his compliment..
Geet(st)- asking anything to him is waste of time, huh!, with that she too got inside the car..
Inside the Car
Geet- by the way where are we going??
Maan- to a restaurant to have dinner!, hearing him Geet made a face at his boring plan, seeing her face Maan asked, do you want to go anywhere else??
Not having any other plan ,Geet nodded no...
Further Maan concentrated on road while Geet was getting bored, she looked at Maan who hardly speak anything..in study it is easy to talk as she have her doubts regarding her subjects but here there is no topic, what to talk ,even if she initiates, his one word answers make it hard to talk further on same thing..,busy in her thoughts Geet looked out when suddenly a pani puri(golgappa) stall grabbed her attention, just the sight of her favorite street food and her mouth watered to have them..
Geet- stop stop..
Maan- what happened??
Geet- golgappe!, I want to have them!
Maan- where??, Geet through her eyes pointed towards the stall..
Maan- no..
Geet- no??
Maan- its unhygienic.. you might fall ill..,Geet rolled her eyes on his concern..
Geet- I will not..
Maan- Geet don't act like a kid! we will have something nice in restaurant.. but she cut him in between
Geet- its my birthday so let me decide what should I have!
Maan- Geet!, but horns of other cars from back stopped him
Geet- okay take a u- turn and let's get back to km..aapke saath aana hi bekar tha!
Maan- you know what you are so stubborn!, turning the steering wheel he parked the car aside.., seeing him doing so she got happy but didn't show it..he glared at Geet..
Maan- go and have it!
Geet- you will not come??
Maan- no I don't prefer street food!
Geet- no not for that..if you will not come then who will pay??, innocently she said to irritate him..
Maan- aahh..chalo!, with that Geet happily got out while irritated Maan followed her..
Reaching the stall, Geet asked the owner to serve her spicer one, agreeing to her the owner gave her a small bowl so that he serve in that while she waited for her turn eagerly!
On the other hand Maan looked at the surrounding, everything was clean but still he didn't feel satisfied, he looked at Geet who seemed to be enjoying herself by looking at the owner, he too looked at him, the owner was busy in preparing and serving others with his naked hands without any gloves..this didn't go well with him..
Maan- Geet are you sure, you want to have it.., he whispered to her, Geet was genuinely irritated with his faltu ka concern
Geet- yes!
Maan- if you get ill , then don't blame me!
Geet- okay!, nonchalantly she said..
Finally her turn came, she took whole of it her mouth and relished it..
Geet(with mouth fully)-yummy!..Bhaiya its too tasty !, she complimented the owner to which he just smiled..
Geet got full busy in enjoying her golgappa treat while Maan was shocked to see her eating habits..
Maan(st)- these hosiyarpur people have completely spoiled her!
Initially he was feeling weird to see her eating like that but soon he started enjoying...
The bloomed happiness on her face attracted him, the cuteness with which she was eating was worth to watch, an unwanted smile appeared on his face, even if he wanted to avert his eyes from her , they were not ready to leave her..
Finding him staring at her, Geet looked at him and offered him one..which he denied..
Geet- have one, I'm sure you too will love it!, cheerfully she said..
Maan- no..thank you..
Geet- arrey..try one.., she moved to him and tried to force him..
Maan- Geet..nahi.., he tried to avoid..
Geet- try na.., she came too close and tried to force one in his mouth and this broke his patience..
Maan- No..Don't you understand once!!, he shouted on Geet, grabbing everyone's attention towards them, embarrassing Geet..
Geet felt really bad when he shouted at her, all were looking at her,silently she stepped back, keeping her eyes down she kept the small bowl and left from there..
while Maan closed his eyes in repent, he knew he did wrong by shouting at her and that too in front of others, paying the money, he immediately followed Geet..
With puffed face she was silently sitting in car,Maan too took his seat ,he wanted to apologize but didn't know how to say it..so he started the car..
Geet eyed from corner of her eyes..
Geet(st)- Dhust Danav hai..I was just offering him and he shouted!!
Maan(st)- she looks angry...Maan why the hell you shouted??, god how I apologize now..but I have to..
Making up his mind he uttered..
Maan- Geet..
Geet- I know you want to apologize but no need..as you have already embarrassed me in front of all..God knows why even I try!
Maan- I'm really..,but she cut him inbetween
Geet- kahana No!, she too shouted and faced outside the window..,all his efforts went in vain with her words, not having anything more to say he drives ahead..
Soon they reached at restaurant and grabbed their seat..
For the first time her silence irritated him so Maan once again tried to initiate the talk but ignoring him,she grabbed the menu card and covered her face with it pretending to read..
Sighing Maan too took the menu card..
Soon waiter came to take their order..
Maan- no.12
Waiter- and Mam.., both waiter and Maan looked at her startling her
Geet who till now pretended to read, looked at menu card in actual and read the contents..
Names of the dishes were weird,she didn't get any at that moment plus the unwanted pair of eyes were pressuring her, not thinking much she ordered without thinking..
Geet- no.21!,
Waiter- thank u..,saying so he left
Maan- what you ordered??
Geet- food!
Maan rolled his eyes at her reply
Maan- dekho Geet..I'm really sorry..it's just..I..
looking at other side she humming a song ,completing ignoring him
Maan- at least listen to me..,he requested.., but Geet was in no mood to give away this easily..
Few minutes later, their dishes were served in front of them..
It was normal Italian dish for Maan,while Geet dish looked something unusual, serving them waiter left..
Maan looked at Geet's dish and then at her, the look which she was giving to her dish ,cracked him, grabbing the menu card, he read her ordered dish name and laughed at her plight ,Geet by now picked the fork , picking up bit from the plate content she tried to figure out what exactly is that..
Maan- ahem ahem..I didn't knew you like to eat octopus too!
Geet- octopus??, confused she looked at him,to which he pointed towards her dish, telling her its octopus, shocked the fork from her hand dropped, while Maan chuckled at her response, irritating Geet further..
Maan- not a problem mistakes do happen..
Geet- it was not mistake, I knew what I was ordering okay!, she tried to defend herself..
Maan- oh okay..then we should start our dinner?
Geet- yeah.., Maan picked his spoon and tasted his dish and purposely made a yum sound just to tease her...Geet made a face
Maan- Geet what are you waiting for, start!
Geet-hmm, she was damn hungry now but how will she eat her ordered dish.., her stomach grumbled with hunger.., looking here and there she found everyone busy with their food and she..but as she turned she found a spoon full food in front of her, looking ahead she found Maan holding it for her..
Maan- I'm sorry , now please forgive me na...please...
The hunger and pleading request melted her heart and moving forward she tasted his dish indicating that she forgave him..., Maan sighed in relief..
Maan- thank god!, now order something else for yourself so.., but he was cut in between by her actions as she picked his dish and placed it at her side , and then transferred her dish at his side..
Maan- what?
Geet- you order something for yourself as I don't want to get embarrassed again..,shrugging her shoulders she said and started eating..
Maan(st)- god this girl!, her antics always make him smile and this time it got noticed by Geet too..
Geet(st)- finally a smile..good going Geet at least he is smiling...
