Part - 4
" Akdu sarahua nimbu , makkhi idiot stupid kahi ka ...Kya samajhta hai apne aap ko . Geet he is not right for you ...mann toh karta hai usko ..."
" kimma banado , ulta latkake khara kar doon" Pinky completed her friend's as both fuming with anger seeing Maan's attitude toward Geet after losing game . Both are not that fan of Maan , of course because the way he treats her or say ignore her feelings . But today's incident is different matter. They didn't expect Maan to burst on Geet like that . If both have power they would have vanished him from earth . So in their mind they planning imaginary death of him ...
" sahi mein yaar he is so selfish, ussse apne elaba aur koyi nehi dikhta... you better forget that sore thump ..." Pinky was going on and on just then Jaya stepped in with Geet's favourite juice and she stopped her cursing .
" aaare don't stop keep going " she handed both their glasses and sat beside Geet . " what he had done na he deserves it , you guys don't need to stop just because I'm his mother . How could he make my sweet pie cry ? .."
Jaya hugged Geet trying make her feel good . She not liking her sitting sadly that too because of her idiot son . " let he come today ..I will "
" no aunty please don't say anything "
Geet didn't like how Jaya became so offended on her own son . No matter what , she can't see mother scolding own son for an outsider , who is worth of nothing . ' nothing ' this is what Maan said to her , may be this is what she means to him too .
Till now she avoided all bullying, all taunting... never said or cared but today seeing Maan so angry on her she felt like Maan too believe what others think of her ...may be that's why he didn't say anything to them . also it was her foolishness to challenge Riya like that , because of her those happened , she is at fault not Maan . Her eyes about to wet up remembering others taunting but she controlled as didn't want Jaya to feel more bad . This woman like a mother to her which she never had . She doesn't want to make her more sad .
" Geet no aaj mein Maan ko nehi chorngi... "
" no Aunty please mein "
" Mom Mom " before Geet said more Maan's angry voice stopped her . Both Pinky and Meera made a face but didn't say anything ... after few second Maan came with a frustrated look on his face ..
" Mom what is this ? "
Maan deliberately ignored three girls and went to his mother " see my blue Tshirt it's turned all pink now...How could yo"
" yeh T shirt meine kharab ki hai Aunty ne nehi " Geet said quietly seeing Maan gonna said something to his mother . His face hardened, he was angry before but now as if he gonna burst... " I knew it .. who can do such thing other than you Ms troublemaker.. tumhe bas logo ko pareshan karna aata hai aur kuch nehi "
" Maan dekho ..."
" Mom please don't interfere ..." he stopped Jaya before she could lie or defend Geet ..
" woh woh mein "
" woh what ? " he is already getting late now his favourite shirt ruined , his day getting worse which making his mood more sore ..
" I mistakenly washed it with why red duppata "
" what ? How could you be so stupid Geet ? Even Yash is more sensible than you .. you can't do one thing properly you are so dumb ... "
" Maan stop it "
" I'm sorry " Geet said slowly
" yes sorry you can only say sorry that's it . Sorry won't solve what you did to my shirt . Sorry won't erase the things I had to hear because of you .. "
she looked at him as tears made its way down her checks ...
" and this you can just cry like ... "
" Maan bas bohot hua ... you crossing limit "
" im crossing limit ? Mom stop supporting her in everything .You only spoiling her more .She making things hard for me and you still siding her ! Give me a break ..i can't tolerate her more stupidity, why can't she just vanish ? " saying last word looking directly at her he went out leaving her in miserable condition .
Geet not so naive to not understand what he meant . Finally he told her to go . For whole high school life she is behind him in hope that someday he will notice her , love her back, even few times thought he loves her too . But this year was eye opener for her . She was only making his life hard which she never wanted . Seeing his frustration, anger she got her answer. She finally understood she has no place in his life ...She only making his life miserable.
*********
" it's so boring , Geet let's go watch a movie " Pinky suggested as they doing homework .
" nehi yaar mann nehi hai "
Pinky looked at Titli and nudged her to do something " Geetu kab tak uss kharos ke liye sad rahega "
" I'm not sad for him " Geet said too sudden , pulling one book on her lap .
" oh please we are seeing you for 3 days now . Don't lie ok . "
" aur waise bhi why you sad ? . Does he even care ? He must be happy with that Riya... Both gone to Mumbai together, must be having fun . There you turn into Devdas "
Geet blinked away her tears , mention of Maan n Riya always hurt her and after that day it hurt her like hell . Her friend is right he doesn't care . If he cared he would have try to say sorry or even talk but no he didn't.
" it's nothing like that . I don't care what they doing ..I moved on "
Geet lied through her teeth . Moved on ! is it so easy ? Never but she tried her best . But Maan is like drug and she addicted to it . After loving him for years she can't move on now . There she knows she mean nothing to him . It's 2 days he gone to Mumbai with Riya for science fair , every second she missed him . She missed him so much that thought to do madness like before and follow him there . But that day's event stopped her .
Maan mom was so angry that she followed her son into his room to put some sense into his head .
" I never thought I raised you this way to insult people like this .. "
" Mom you don't know anything .. " Maan tried to justify but his Mom stopped him raising her hand
" I know everything . I know how my so called perfect son couldn't bear losing , I know how big his ego is . Just for a small game you told her so many things . How could you ? Woh bechari tumhari itni care karti hai iska matlab yeh nehi ki ..."
" I never told her to care for me , I never told her to running behind me , damn why she is so irrirating, why can't she leave me alone ? Atleast people would stop talking bad about her .." His answe stuuned Jaya , she looked at him with pity ...
" leave you alone really! , then why you keep looking for her every morning ? Why you smile at her silly jokes isn't she just irritating person . Why you scold Yash outside whenever he trouble Geet ? Why that day you stopped Mohindar paji to move out as his house was half done ? its so surprising Maan you want her to stop coming behind you , not because you don't like it because you can't bear others saying bad things about her "
" Mom stop imaning things .. I don't love Geet "
" I never mentioned about love Maan " Maan's tounge tied realising what he said ...
" you yourself admitting.. "
" ugh there I thought Geet needs to grow up , but no you need to grow up fast Mom . The person who doesn't love herself , how could you think i love her ? . I can't love her , never .. "
Geet was there outside his door hearing all things . She didn't dare to told these to her friends knowing they won't leave Maan. But where is his fault in there ? It's not his fault that he finds her stupid and can never love her . She is not enough for him ,she is at fault not him . That day she vowed to give him what he wanted for years , ' freedom 'from her and she doing it too . She no longer around him like before nor she following him around , that's the reason she didn't follow him Mumbai too . Although her heart breaking thinking Maan and Riya together there . May be they are connecting after all they are alone there . But she now got lesson , some people are just not mean to be ... She and Maan too trying to accept it . Thats why she took decision of moving out from his house too .
