Chapter 28
Geet slowly opened her eyes as realization sunk in, she drew back instantly, her hands slipping down her sides and her eyes dipped down. Maan released her; he looked around avoiding her eyes even though she avoided looking into his.
Heat rushed to her cheeks, the warmth colouring them down to her neck, she chewed her lower lip keeping her eyes lowered, her heart racing a marathon, she swallowed thickly and quickly turned to her room, Maan noticed her response and knew she was heading for the room.
"Geet" he called just before she could move.
"Um... woh..." she stammered. "Main... woh..." she tried to come up with words to explain her action. She didn't know how she'd become overwhelmed with his return, she closed her eyes when his finger touched her chin. Maan lifted her chin slightly waiting for her to open those eyes of hers.
"Geet..." he called softly moving his finger away not wanting to make her even more uncomfortable than she was already feeling right at this moment.
Blinking, she drew them open staring at him with her hooded gaze, she swallowed down the knot forming in her throat, she grew conscious and even more shy with his closeness. Maan didn't have words to say how he was feeling right now, he was overcome with so many emotions running through him. Seeing how vulnerable Geet really is had him feeling guilty for how he'd treated her when she'd come to their house as his wife.
"Um..." he tried to find the right words, he couldn't express his deepest regrets for hurting her nor could he say much about this moment. A moment which had changed everything for them, the feeling towards each other had grown deeper, something which didn't border on the line of friends and civility, it meant something much more. Something which he couldn't name nor could Geet. They were both unaware of what really just happened, it was slowly sinking in but how it happened both failed to realize yet. They had far too many things going through them right now.
Maan cleared his throat stalling for another second. "Um... Good night" he wished her having nothing else to say, he couldn't come up with words, he just wasn't used to expressing using words. She nodded, Maan turned around slowly pressing his eyes closed as he tried to figure out words inwardly, he opened the door and walked out whilst Geet pressed her hand to her heart letting out a big sigh.
She bit down on her bottom lip staring in the direction that Maan walked away, her heart was still pounding only it'd increased, she chuckled nervously to herself as she realized she just hugged him. She hugged her husband.
She covered her mouth giggling, warmth heating her face making her face go all pink, and she placed both her palms over her face shaking her head.
Maan leaned against his own door once he'd closed it. He thought of their hug, something which was initiated by his own wife, but he'd also touched her. He wondered how he had even got the nerve to touch her. Why did he touch her? He wondered, he questioned himself so many times but had no answer yet. All he could do was wonder.
He thought back to the trip in HP, the things he'd learned about Geet's past, he couldn't ever tell her, if she ever finds out it'd be from her mother not him. He'd support her if the time ever came. How could anyone have ever hurt her so much? She'd only tried to please them, get them to like her?
She'd done as Dadima had told her, could it be that she feared Dadima might love her less if she didn't listen? He wondered. But then she has expressed her desires to Dadima more than anyone else. It could be now she has understood slowly that she is entitled to choose whatever she wants.
Geet was all changed and lying in her bed, she hugged her pillow as she continued think of Maan's return, she'd instantly blushed each time she thought of it. An overwhelming relief and unexplained happiness filled her, she didn't know why she seemed so pleased he was back. She knew he was going to come back so how could she have even... missed him so much. She thought to herself.
Marriage consists of many challenges, one of them is also space.
The space between couples is just as necessary as the togetherness, had we always been with our husbands or wives, then we would've really wanted to kill them. But it these spaces that make us realize how much they mean to us. This little space makes us realize how much you care, love, miss, adore your partner. You miss everything of theirs, stuff that had become habitual, you start to miss those very actions.
She thought of the latest marriage session she'd attended, Dr Nikita had covered quite a lot of topics and the challenges in marriage, Attraction, dislike, incompatibility, age, personalities and the recent one she'd attended was of space... Each session had made her realize things, each session answered questions, doubts she had stored in her head.
This recent session however made her miss her husband even more, she'd come to miss his presence in the house, she'd become used to the noise of the car returning late at night, she'd missed that very noise which announced his return from work. She missed the sounds of the water lapping whenever he'd take a swim in the middle of the night, she started to acknowledge those actions that she hadn't paid attention to.
She lifted the photo frame of their picture staring at it; could she be feeling something for her husband? Would she be able to allow herself to slowly open herself and let him in? He wanted a chance and she wanted to give it, she wanted to be able to speak to him freely just like she does with Dadima and Vikrant. She wanted to share things with him, things she couldn't tell anyone else. Would it be possible for her and Maan? Will Maan be able speak to her, will he be able to open up to her?
She traced the tip of her finger over his face smiling faintly, could she see the life partner she'd always wished for in Maan? She hugged the frame close to her chest hiding it under the blanket afraid someone might find out her deepest desires, she closed her eyes silently sending up a prayer hoping she'd get her answers soon.
Maan lay in bed staring at his white ceiling, he thought back to his bitter poisonous mother and his late father, he thought of the marriage they had. He'd intended to never get married afraid all the women might turn out to be like his mother but he understood now he was wrong however... he thought of their marriage. Could Geet and him have a normal married life, will there be a time where he'd seek solace from Geet and she from him? Will they share their happiness, sadness with one another? Will they even be able to close any distance between them; he turned onto his right, looking at the empty side of his bed... Will the day ever come where Geet will be sleeping beside him, and waking up in his arms? Could it be possible for them to live like those many couples out there?
He climbed out of bed unable to sleep, he opened his door stepping out and his eyes instantly drew to Geet's bedroom. His feet moved to its own accord, before he knew it he was stood outside her bedroom. He contemplated knocking but then what would he say? That he couldn't sleep and wanted to see her some reason he couldn't explain.
He stepped back turning to leave when the door opened, both of them looked at each other in surprise. Geet had heard something and out of curiosity came to check what was the noise, what she hadn't expected was her husband.
Maan cursed himself for even getting out of bed, what he was thinking coming out here, especially to her bedroom. Out of all the places in the mansion, he'd landed up in front of her room.
"A..Aap" she muttered confused.
"um... I..." he tried to come up with some excuse not wanting to embarrass himself. "Would you like to go out for a walk?" he muttered.
"Ji?... iss waqt?" she looked at him stunned. Who goes out for walks at 11 at night.
He couldn't exactly back away unless he wanted to look stupid in front of her. "I... couldn't sleep and... since we're trying to get to know each other, I thought I'll ask you" he replied praising himself for such an excuse.
"Oh. Okay" she shrugged. "Where will we be going?" she asked.
"Just out into the garden, why? Would you like to go anywhere else?"
"No... no" she shook her head. "I was asking because I didn't want to change into to something else" she pointed to her pyjamas, Maan bit back his smile seeing them. She had tom and jerry pyjama suit.
"It's fine, we'll just go out to the garden" he replied softly.
"Okay, Um I'll just put my shoes on" she told him then turned back into her bedroom slipping into her shoes, Maan quickly returned to his room slipping into his sandals then joined Geet at the top of the stairs. Both descending the stairs together making their way to the garden for a walk in the night under the shining moonlight which is about to witness their little growth in their relationship and growth in their own personalities and feelings.
