Chapter 44

Dadima had asked Geet and Maan to rest for a while before the evening sangeet, they had returned to their room, whilst Geet settled on the bed waiting for her mehndi to dry enough Maan had disappeared into the washroom to change out of his shervani wanting out of it.

He returned 20 minutes later and found Geet dozing off on the bed, her head slightly sliding, it was going to ache later on if she didn't support her neck so he walked over grabbing the cushion carefully lifting her neck and placed the cushion underneath.

He wondered if he should wake her and ask her to change, her clothes didn't seem anywhere near comfortable and there was a few hours till the sangeet this evening. As far as he knew the others were just doing the last minute decorations and making sure everything was beautifully done.

"Geet..." he touched her shoulder gently. "Geet" he called again when she didn't respond. "Geet you're going to be uncomfortable" he spoke. "Wake up and change"

She mumbled something incoherently which he couldn't make out, so he leaned forward.

"What?"

"Sone dijiye" she whispered grabbing the hand that rested near her shoulder, Maan gasped when her mehndi covered his fingertips, Geet slowly opened her eyes confused, her eyes widening when she saw Maan, slowly lowering down to her hand grasping onto his fingers.

She sat up releasing his fingers biting her lip nervously. "Woh... woh... main..."

"It's okay" Maan cut her off, he walked away to the washroom to wash his hands before the mehndi settled, Geet was about to animatedly smack her forehead then recalled the mehndi on her hands, she waited till Maan walked out then went in washing her hands.

The colour of the mehndi thankfully had settled, the smudged bit was barely just orange, the pattern however was darker and already printed. She slowly walked back out shooting a quick prayer smiling nervously when Maan looked at her.

"Woh... I..."

"Geet it's okay" Maan cut her off before she started apologizing, it was an accident and they both knew it. She shuffled on her feet for a moment before going around and settling on the corner of the sofa, whilst Maan had watched her. She dipped her eyes playing with her fingers in silence, Maan leaned back casually, he hadn't looked away this time instead perused his wife. Geet slowly looked up quickly averting her eyes when she noticed his gaze on her making Maan smirk.

She swallowed thickly chewing on her lower lip, silence continued to stretch between them. Geet looked everywhere then decided she was better off downstairs, so she stood quickly.

"Geet" Maan called just as she rounded the table.

She stopped slowly turning her head and looked at him.

"Kuch nahi" he shook his head teasingly, Geet blushed skipping away to the door, she stopped and looked over her shoulder.

"Maan..." she whispered softly gaining his attention. "Aap... aap aaye mujhe accha laga"

He smiled nodding in response, she left shyly keeping her eyes lowered bumping into Ranbir and yelped nearly fell backwards till he'd caught her.

Maan scowled as he had hurried out of their room hearing her and seeing Ranbir holding onto his wife especially with both arms around Geet's waist... He clenched his jaw narrowing his deathly gaze on Ranbir who stepped back nervously plastering a fake innocent smile. "Woh bhai jaan..."
"Shut up!" Maan cut him off, Geet looked surprised.

"Maan bete woh Geet ko bachaye hai" Dadima who had witnessed it walked over.

"Don't side with him dadima" Maan replied. "What the hell is he even still doing here?" he scowled.

"Maan!" Dadima frowned. "Don't be mean"

"That idiot lied" Maan pointed out. "Do you know how worried I got" he blurted out, Geet wondered what had Ranbir lied about that had gotten her husband worried, dadima smiled at his indirect response, she also noticed Geet questioning eyes.

"Bete I'll tell you"

"No you won't" Maan cut her off, Geet pouted looking sadly at dadima.

"I'll tell her myself" he crossed his arms. "You can go"

"You only have to say you want to be alone instead of being so rude" Dadima countered.

"And you!" Maan scowled at Ranbir. "Get out"

"Ranbir bete come with me" Dadima called out gesturing him to follow.

"Ji dadima" he quickly sped away from the wrath of his best friend's brother.

Geet looked at Maan waiting for him to speak, instead he walked in. She followed in the hope of hearing it from Maan but he didn't speak.

"Aap ne kahan ke..." she started pouting her lips when he hadn't spoken.

"I know" Maan interrupted. He was only trying to figure out how to inform his wife without getting embarrassed. Why did you even believe that stupid Ranbir anyway? He cursed inwardly. "Geet woh..." he sighed heavily. "I... Ranbir said you fainted" he revealed slowly. "And I... I got worried"

Geet stared at him surprised for a moment, she bit her lower lip dipping her eyes down instead, she guessed he was most probably going to be embarrassed; he didn't seem that comfortable as well revealing that so she didn't say anything else.

They were interrupted with a knock, before they had even answered Amelia walked in smiling widely at the both of them. "Here's your clothes. I chose them" she grinned rather proudly. "So dadima said you both should start getting ready, the sangeet will be starting soon" she smiled then left them to it.

Chapter 45

The sounds of jewellery tinkling caught Maan's attention, he turned around facing Geet who had now changed, her mehndi all washed away and a dark colour setting slowly. His eyes drew down her petite form, she'd worn a blue lengha, the colour matching his shervani, her hands adorned with bangles, her hair was swept up curled and folded into a side chignon bun with a diamante comb slide.

He looked away hearing the door being swung open without any notice, Amelia grinned looking between them.

"I didn't disturb you two love birds did I?" she teased feeling rather happy today to be scared of Maan.

Meera had followed in pinching Amelia, then smiled gently. "Um it's time" she muttered quickly. "Dadima said you should come down" she told them dragging Amelia away who complained about wanting to bring Geet and Maan down.

Geet shifted wondering whether she should just walk ahead with her friends or wait, she didn't have to do much thinking since Maan placed his hand on the small of her back surprising her gesturing her to the door. She unconsciously stood closer to his side as they walked down together, thankfully not everyone was around. Dadima walked up to them happily calling Vikrant over to show them their seats.

They'd sat down, Geet looked around the hall which didn't look less than a wedding venue, it was so beautifully decorated; no words could express what she was feeling, she was grateful to dadima who had planned so extravagantly, she hadn't missed anything out at all. She was so pleased to see dadima with her mother and her aunt keeping them company even though there was Maan's family, she smiled at dadima who grinned at her with admiration. She looked at her mother whose face was filled with pride and happiness. Geet couldn't have been thankful enough to dadima, her love and admiration for dadima wouldn't ever be able to match up to dadima's love for her.

She smiled gently when Amelia took her place in the centre thanking everyone for coming then the lights slowly dimmed.

The dances followed, entertaining everyone. The surprising one was the last one Amelia had started dancing on. She snubbed Karan pulling Jai by the collar and started singing and dancing with him.

I know you want it,

But you never gonna get it

Tere hath kabhi naa aani

Maane na maane koi duniya ye saari

Mere ishq ki hai deewani (x2)

Amelia pulled Jai close making him hold her from behind, dancing seductively then pulled away from him.

Ab dil karta hai huale haule se

Main khud ko gale lagaaun

Kisi aur ki mujhko zaroorat kya

Main to khud se pyaar jataaun

What's my name?

what's my name?

what's my name?

My name is Amelia, Amelia ki Jawani

I am too sexy for you

Main tere haath na aani

No no no no Amelia, Amelia ki Jawani

I am too sexy for you

Main tere haath na aani

"All women are traitors" Karan grit out to Vikrant who was stood beside him.

"How?" Vikrant frowned.

"You see that little rat there" he pointed to Amelia. "She's a flipping living proof"

"That girl there isn't anything" Vikrant responded. "You don't like her, she's ignoring you now" he teased.

"You're meant to be my cousin you traitor" Karan scowled.

"Um before you comes my wife, that means her friend as well"

"Wife to be" Karan corrected.

"Wife, same thing" he shrugged.

"Wife means locked to her for life, wife to be makes it easier to break up in case"

"You're such a knob of a cousin. You're meant to be happy" It was now Vikrant's turn to scowl. "You're bad luck to me. Glad my Amelia isn't into you anymore" he walked to the other side joining Meera's side.

"Men" Ranbir shook his head looking at Karan.

"You want to walk or be rolled away in a stretcher" Karan glared, Ranbir skipped away quickly chuckling nervously.

Geet giggled at the song, knowing Amelia had the song Sheila ki Jawani intentionally tampered with, Vikrant whistled from his seat clapping loudly whilst Karan just continued to glower in their direction wrathfully. Maan however seemed bored, he wanted to head upstairs, get out the heavy clothes and into his tracks and vest.

"Aap..." Geet looked at Maan curiously noticing how uninterested he seemed. "Accha nahi hai?"

"What's so good in this?" Maan murmured back.

"Woh loug naach rahe hai" she shrugged innocently.

"This isn't a Bollywood stage where they're going to get judged" he responded back.

"Does it have to do with Bollywood?" she questioned pursing her lips. "They... put in so much effort in learning"

"I still don't see the point" he shrugged absentmindedly.

Geet chuckled turning her eyes away; she smiled at Meera whose turn it was to do her dance...

"Did you enjoy it?" Maan turned onto his side inquiring Geet softly. They'd returned to their room and were lying in bed feeling exhausted with the parties today plus dadima had planned an early morning puja followed by their official anniversary party in the evening.

"Hmmm. Dadima did so much" she whispered back folding both her hands under her cheek as she lay on her side facing him. "Mujhe lagta hai hume dadima ko kuch dena chahiye"

"Yeah" Maan nodded thoughtfully. "What?" he raised his brows when Geet observed at him.

She shook her head dipping her eyes down,

"You're thinking something Geet, what is it?" he replied.

"Kuch nahi..." she chuckled turning onto her back.

"It is something" he shifted up, cradling his head and leaning on his elbow looking down at her as he lay on his side.

"Woh... aaj... um... you look so bored downstairs" she chuckled.

"I wasn't bored" Maan replied, Geet raised her brows questioningly.

Maan then shrugged with a smile. "Fine, I was"

She smiled chuckling softly looking away from him, she composed herself clearing her throat and gathering herself together. Maan's eyes drew to the clock, he stared at it for a moment then turned to Geet.

"Would you step out onto the balcony?" he asked her gently.

"Ji?" she stared at him confused now.

"Just for 2 minutes, I'll be there in a minute as well" he told her sitting up. Geet slowly sat up seemingly confused but she did as he asked and stepped outside after she wrapped herself in her shawl as it was rather cold now.

"Yeh..." Geet gasped feeling something slightly cold touching her neck, she stared in awe for a moment seeing a new manglsutr, she hadn't even heard him come or anything. She looked over her shoulder and found Maan hooking it. He gently turned her to face him smiling warmly. "Happy Anniversary" he whispered knowing it was past 12 now "Um... This... this isn't what someone gives... I know" he muttered, he hadn't planned any present and with the presents they'd been showered with today he realized everyone will be bringing things along as well and he also had to give something to her. Unable to think of anything else that might please his wife, he thought of gifting her this new manglsutr which he'd purchased a couple of weeks ago wanting to gift it to her but was puzzled trying to think of ways to give it. It seemed tonight was the greatest opportunity. "I... I didn't know what else to give. And I... want the morning to be... Let's just say a new beginning for us both" he mumbled rather uneasily. Tears glistened in her eyes as she looked down, she gazed up at him giggling as well; Maan brushed away her tears sweetly.

She slowly tiptoed snaking her arms around him, in a way of showing her gratitude and hugged him, Maan didn't hold back reciprocating warmly to his wife. She drew back leisurely keeping her eyes fixed on his, she swallowed thickly when he lowered his head pressing his lips to her cheek ever so softly, an act which he hadn't given much thought of, it was something which had drawn him towards her.

She pressed her eyes closed feeling warm and tingly all over, Maan moved back unhurriedly observing her, the blush on her cheeks made her seem innocent and ever so admirable, he waited patiently not releasing her from his closeness keeping his hands on her hips, he smiled when she opened her eyes and finally looked at him, he smiled when she continued to blush furiously and avoided his eyes.

"Andar chale?" he muttered gently, she nodded quickly. Maan didn't step away instead guided her inside sliding the balcony door closed behind then separated when they reached their bed, Geet slid inside whilst he walked around and joined her.

Geet blinked for a moment when he offered his hand out to her, as if no words were needed to express what they were feeling, she tentatively took his hand and he drew her to him unhurriedly and gently, Geet nestled against his side wrapping an arm around his stomach, whilst his slid around her shoulders holding her.

The silence between them was comfortable, words didn't seem to be needed.
