Part – 73
That weekend Maan comes to visit the site…
Geet doesn’t feel like going to the site after knowing that Maan is coming….
She unnecessarily blamed him and is yet to seek his forgiveness… nanaji has put the condition that Maan would stay in his place whenever he is here…
Maan comes to nanaji’s house…
Nanaji is happy to see Maan… so Geet’s magic has worked on him, he can’t stay without her… nanaji was hoping for this only…
He immediately tells Maan that Geet is in the backyard…
Maan wishes that Geet understands him as much as her nanaji does…
Maan walks towards the backyard in a hurry to meet Geet…
Nanaji: sambalke damadji, jo aapki hai woh aapki hi rahegi, kissi aur ki kabhi nahi ho sakthi
Ye nanaji bhi kaise kaise batein karthe hai… apni pothi se aaise baat kyun nahi karthe?
Maan kya jaane ki baat ho chuki hai….
Maan goes and looks for Geet…
Geet is watering the plants….
Geet thinks it’s nanaji…
She tries to put up a fake smile as she turns ….
She knows he is worried about her…
Geet is surprised to see Maan…
She never thought that he would come here….
Her smile disappears as soon as she sees Maan and she can’t hide anything when it comes to Maan… she is scared that he will still be mad at her… but Maan’s anger vanishes like magic when he sees Geet.. that too without her smile…
Maan: why didn’t you come to the site Geet?
Geet has no answers…
Maan: mujhse chup rahi ho?
Maan knows that she has realized her mistake and is feeling embarrassed to see him….
Though Geet has only given him pain he can’t see her getting even a little upset…
That’s his major problem… he just wants her to be happy as long as she is with him… after that he won’t get to know much about her, but still he would be worried for her…
Geet: I’m sorry, I was wrong, you are right, I’m stupid at times
Maan: it’s ok, as you said I know how your tiny brain works, it works very very late, hope that doesn’t lead you into any more trouble in the future
Geet can’t believe how he could still think about her only…
She never expected him to be this good… she has slowly started admiring the kind, considerate side of him….
Maan keeps watching her… she is still bowing down her head and looking upset…
Geet is in silent mode which Maan doesn’t like at all…
He wants to get her to the talkative mode…
He knows how to do that… he knows her triggers well…
She would never tolerate his neglect…
Maan: Dadima wants you to come to Delhi
Geet remains silent… so Dadima only is concerned about her return?
Geet’s eyes turn red in anger…
Maan is happy that his trick has worked….
Maan: I just asked you something Geet, what do you want to do?
Geet: What do you want?
So there comes the reverse questions…
Maan: I think you’re still a khurana, it’s not yet one year na,You can come if you want to
Geet: I didn’t ask for your advice, I just asked you, what do you want? just tell me what you want me to do
Maan looks into her beautiful eyes which have lost their shine a little…
Maan: I want you to come with me
Geet is really happy….
she too wanted to hear only that from him….
Geet tries to go and get her things…
Maan keeps watching her with a wicked smile…
Geet turns to look at him…
Geet: what ? Don’t you want me to come?
Maan: yes, I do
Geet: then why are you looking at me like that?
Maan: I doubt the packing is already done
Geet realizes how desperate she must have looked…. Yes, she always keeps her bags packed waiting for the day to go home!!!!!!
Maan turns back to leave…
Geet runs to stop him…
Geet: where are you going?
Maan: I’m hungry, nanaji is waiting for us
Maan knows she wouldn’t have had anything from morning… her tummy works only when she is happy, haina?
Geet: what?
Maan: I know you must not be hungry, but still for the sake of it, you might give me company Geet
Who knows her hunger pangs better than Maan?
But Geet has forgotten everything in the wake of returning home with him…
Geet: hmm, I maybe hungry too
Geet is feeling a bit hungry now that Maan has asked her to join him for dinner…
Geet goes with him…
Channi has made Maan’s favorite tandoori roti with palak paneer… nanaji has already ordered her to make…
Geet likes her buttery kulcha with rich and spicy muttar paneer though….
So they are back to the friendship mode…
If that’s what makes Geet happy Maan is ready to be a true friend until she is her nakli Biwi….
He can’t think beyond that, or he doesn’t want to think beyond that….
Geet is really looking forward to seeing Dadima and Annie…
