At Hoshiarpur….
Next morning…
Geet is not ready to talk to Maan…
Maan is desperately running after her to get a smile back at least… but it’s not looking that easy…
Maan finally loses his patience…
Maan goes to the bedroom where Geet is drying her hair..
Maan goes and looks at her in the mirror and adjusts her forelock to look at her glowing face….
Geet tries to ignore him but in vain…
Maan: Geet, what’s wrong with you? Why wouldn’t you speak?
Maan takes the towel from her hand and starts drying her hair himself….
Geet gently tries to step back by pushing him with her hands..
But Maan folds her hands back tight…
Maan: I won’t let you go unless you speak
Geet is worried that Aditi is alone outside….
Maan has given his mobile to her to play her favorite videos… she won’t get off her place easily…
Geet restricts her and so she always looks forward to seeing videos whenever possible…
Geet keeps staring him…
Maan: that’s not going to work Geet, I have a better idea
Maan inches closer and starts kissing her….
Geet melts….
Maan: ab bathao, what’s your problem?
Geet: I gave you a little task and you do everything else but forget conveniently about that
Maan: what task?
Geet: there Pari has proposed and Dev has also confessed, they are all set to marry
Maan: but we have Aditi already, then why worry about all that Geet? I’m ready for the next one
Geet: hummare toh sab kuch ulta hi ho raha hai, uss hissab se toh ab agla shadi aur phir proposal aur uske badh confession hoga ya woh bhi nahi hoga
Maan: I love you Geet, and you already know that
Geet: ok thank you, ab chodo mujhe
Geet leaves angrily…
Maan was just teasing her…
The whole afternoon Maan plays with Aditi and ignores Geet…
Geet comes and keeps watching them…
Maan: Aditi beta, let’s play a game
Aditi: haan, hide and seek
Maan: that’s boring, chalo kuch naya game khelthe hai
Aditi: hmm
Maan: I’ll tell you a story
Aditi: I love stories, bear story
Maan: ok bear story
Aditi gets excited and keenly listens to Maan…
Maan: there was a Papa bear, and a mama bear
Maan looks at Geet and pauses….
Aditi: and three little bears
Maan: three, haan, but abhi bas one little baby bear
Aditi: ok
Maan: the three live happily in a cave
Aditi: what’s baby bear’s name?
Maan: hmm, you think of a name
Aditi: cutie
Maan: ok then, Little cutie bear loves her papa and mama, haina?
Aditi: haan
Maan: so the papa and mama bear love cutie bear, haina?
Aditi: haan
Maan: what about the Papa bear and mama bear bata? Do they love each other?
Aditi: haina, Papa bear loves mama bear
Maan: what did you say? Say again, Geet wants to hear it
Maan keeps smiling at Geet…
Aditi: Papa bear loves mama bear
Maan: and how does Papa bear show his love?
Aditi: how?
Maan: I don’t know, ask Geet, she knows everything
Aditi: Geet, you tell
Geet: Geet kaho toh mein tumse baat nahi karoongi
Aditi: ok maa, please tell
Aditi pleads….
Geet: mujhe kya patha, ye meri story todi nahi
Geet looks at Maan and stares…
Aditi also looks at Maan now for the answer…
Maan: ok let me give an example, so, I’m Papa bear, Geet, come here
Geet keeps looking….
Aditi: aao maa
Geet goes near Aditi…
Maan: and this is mama bear, who is the cutie bear then?
Aditi: Aditi, Aditi
Maan: very smart beta, not like Geet
Maan laughs and Aditi too laughs looking at Geet…
Maan: I love cutie bear
Maan hugs Aditi….
Maan: now it’s your turn Aditi
Aditi hugs Geet… I love mama bear
Maan then looks at Geet…
Geet: I love cutie bear
She hugs Aditi…
Maan: now Aditi’s turn, haina Geet?
Geet: haan
Geet doesn’t want Maan to feel left out….
Geet: cutie bear loves Papa bear, haina Aditi
Aditi goes and hugs Maan…: haan
Maan hugs and kisses her back… I love you too beta
Maan then pulls Geet into a family hug…
Maan: Papa bear Ioves mama bear, Maan kisses Geet in the cheeks….
Maan: ab mama bear ki bari
Geet kisses Aditi….
Geet: ab cutie bear ki bari
Aditi kisses Maan in the cheeks…
They have a great time together….
Geet is happy with whatever Maan is trying to do for them…
She forgets about her earlier complaints….
Maan puts Aditi to sleep early…
He then goes and finds Geet sitting in the varandha…
Maan goes and sits beside her.. .
Geet: Aditi?
Maan: Woh sogayi
Geet: itne jaldhi?
Maan: dopahar ko soyi nahi na?
Now Geet understands why Maan was playing with her all afternoon…. He has got something in his mind…
Geet gets excited…
Geet leans over his shoulder….
Maan pulls her closer by holding her from the back…
Geet: kya baat hai Maan?
Maan: I have been waiting to tell something, and I’m glad that you asked youself
Geet: what?
Maan: about the confession
Geet: I was just kidding Maan
Maan: but still you think I am here only for Aditi
Geet gets up and looks into his eyes… he is looking disappointed….
Geet: no Maan, I know you love us both equally
Maan: no Geet, you must understand that I love you more and Aditi is the symbol of that love I have for you, it has only grown more and more since the day I met you
Geet hugs him tight… : I know Maan, I’m sorr
Maan stops her in MSK style…
Maan: chup bilkul chup
Geet keeps looking at him astonished….
Maan: you deserve to know everything about it Geet, I’m sorry that I didn’t come back for you, I was actually the coward, I was scared to see you married to someone else, that’s why I avoided India completely, for me you are always the Geet Handa that I love, I’m in love with that very same Geet Handa and not the mother of my daughter, samjhi tum?
Geet: do you think I wanted you just because of Aditi?
Maan: no Geet
Geet: I realized my love within days after you left, I didn’t have the necessity to realize my love then because your love for me overshadowed mine
Maan: that’s understandable on your part Geet, but how did I miss to see your love? I was such a big self centred fool then, I thought it was all about me, that’s what made us suffer, I’m really sorry Geet
Geet: it’s not anyone’s fault, it’s just that we are destined to go through this seperation to realize each other’s love better, I’m happy that you came back
Geet hugs Maan tight…
Maan hugs her back… he then lifts her and takes her in for another surprise… mahii…
