Part 33
M-You are beginning to sound like a lesbian. Are you sure there isn't anything more than just admiration going on here?
G-Chup raho!
She pushes him
He laughs
G-Maan
M-Hmm?
G-Chaand pe jaane ke liye kitne paise lagte honge?
M-So Africa isn't far enough?
She looks at him
M-Sorry...I didn't mean to bring that up. Chaand pe jaane ke liye...I dunno...I guess about a crore in Indian rupee
G-umm
M-I've heard it isn't much scenic there. Mainly just sand around. You know you can see better sand in our regular deserts and not wear the hideous bodysuit
G-umm and stars? What about stars? How far are they?
M-They are really very far away... like hundreds of years of travel time
G-emm...par wahan to free pohonch jao naa
M- Free how?
She takes her tongue out and closes eyes..gesture for death
M-You think that where they go after death?
He asks philosophically gazing at the stars again
G-Hmm
M- I dunno... I can really believe that's where they go
G-Why?
M-I just don't. Why do you think that's where they go?
She shrugs
M-But you know it doesn't really matter where they go coz they are gone and they leave people behind who care about them and that's the worst part...no matter where we go after we die...we leave people an relations behind...and hurt people. So I don't really care where we go...it's still sad when someone dies
G-But we meet naa, in next birth
She says optimistically
M-There's no guarantee for that... and who knows how our relation to that person maybe in next birth. What if you end up hating them next time? What if there is no next time. Maybe one of you turns up as a cow and the other one beats it to death. You really can't leave important stuff on next time
G-But...I so hoped...even if I don't get Akhil in this birth I will wait till next birth and surely get him then
Maan pauses to look at her
M- I don't really see why you are so into him... to even want knowing him the next time
G-Huh?
M-What part of the question you don't understand?
G-Nothing...tum nahi samjhoge. Let's go in
Geet walks
Maan follows her
He doesn't want to end the evening in a sour note...although its already gone bad with mention of Akhil between them. He doesn't wanna make it worse
Geet andar chali gai
G-Good night
M-Good night
He goes into his room
