Part – 14
Maan straight away asks the warden what her problem is with Geet this time…
Maan is here to defend Geet? but he doesn’t know why he is doing all this for it’s none of his business, he has no idea of marriage, then what is the meaning of encouraging this relationship, definitely this is not friendship, then what is it that Maan wants out of this?
Maan looks at the warden and he is clearly irritated…
Maan: why? What’s wrong?
Warden: she is a big nuisance for me
Maan: ma’am, do mind your words, she is my fiancee
Oh! Maan is here for his fiancee!…
Warden: you yourself talk to her
Geet comes… : finally you came
She is very happy to see him…
Maan: may I talk to her alone
Warden let’s them speak in private…
Maan: what’s happening Geet?
Geet: that woman is unnecessarily blaming me and she has seized my mobile too, she will only listen to you
Maan: but where did you go in the morning?
Geet: what’s wrong with you people? How many times should I tell you that I was here only? No one wants to believe me
Geet gets angry…. She is almost in tears…
Maan: I do believe you, tell me what happened
Geet: I had a lot of writing to do, so I took a day off and stayed back just like everyone, but they say that I have to take special permission b’coz I’m Geet Handa, they are keeping track of me all the time, it’s not just right, haina?
Maan: they said you were not in your room
Geet: I went to a friend’s room for she has got a laptop from where I needed to write down everything
Maan: you don’t have a laptop?
Geet: no, now I don’t even have my mobile
Maan is surprised…
Maan: I’ll get you both, now come with me
Maan takes her to the warden..
Warden: so now you know what I’m talking about
Maan: now I know what you did to her, this is unacceptable ma’am, how could you do this?
Warden is shocked by his questions… even Geet is pleasantly surprised… that’s why she actually called him, he stands up for her always…
Warden: what are you talking about? What did she lie to you?
Maan: she just said the truth, why would she lie when she has not done anything wrong?
Warden: she bunked class and stayed in someone else’s room
Maan: what’s wrong in that?
Warden: she scared the hell out of us this morning, she didn’t even answer our call
Maan: there was no network connection at that place, your people searched incompletely, that’s your fault and not Geet’s, now if you could give back her mobile you won’t have any problem
Warden: are you trying to threaten me Mr?
Maan: I don’t care if you take it as a threat or warning, I just want Geet to stay peacefully until she completes her course
Warden gives the mobile back to Geet and stares her…: go to your room
Geet turns and looks at Maan…
Maan nods his head and asks her to go, assuring her that she will be fine…
Maan: just call me if you have any problem
Maan tells her in front of the warden….
Geet: teek hai
Geet goes back and Maan takes a leave…
Maan returns to Delhi…
That night Maan is thinking about what happened and is worried what to expect further…
He is facing unexpected problems from the moment he had met this girl… he doesn’t know if it’s his bad fortune or the girl’s that they met each other first of all…
Just then he gets a message from Geet…
“thank you very much for coming, I liked how you bashed that woman left and right, you have made things much easier for me, thank you'
Maan is confused if he should respond to her message or not…
He marks it as unread then…
Now there won’t be a problem…
Next day…
Maan is about to go to bed after a long day when he gets a call from Geet…
Now he regrets not responding to the message…
Maan: bolo
Geet: why didn’t you see my message? First save my no.
Maan: hmm, I’ll
Geet: thank you for everything you did yesterday
Maan: hmm
Geet: good night
Maan: good night
Maan cuts the call…
He knows she wouldn’t call him ever again… his job is done…
Geet feels little disappointed but she won’t stop calling him…
Next day at KC…
Maan is waiting for Sasha to see the next presentation..
Sasha comes…
Sasha: good morning Maan sir
Maan: let’s see the presentation
Sasha: Maan sir, I’ll get it ready by tomorrow
Maan: why? It should have been ready yesterday itself
Sasha: it’s my laptop, there’s some problem with it and I’ve given it for repair, it’s really difficult to work on the mobile, that’s why Maan sir
Maan: ok get it ready soon
Sasha leaves….
Maan is reminded about Geet saying something about using a friend’s laptop… he did tell her that he would get her one… she won’t be expecting that … but she could use it’s services though…
Maan thinks that maybe when he goes to Chandigarh next time he may get her one…
And here Maan has started looking for laptops on the net… He is not even aware that he is getting influenced by someone badly…
It’s Wednesday, and the laptop is ready for delivery and so is our delivery boy… Maan usually goes to the Chandigarh site on Thursdays, that’s how his programs are scheduled at KC… but he can’t wait now…
Maan has some urgent work at the Chandigarh site, that’s how he wishes to put it…
He is on his way to Chandigarh… And he is at the hostel in no time…
Maan is waiting in the visitors room…
Geet comes running… she was not expecting the visitor at all..
Geet is panting heavily after the running…
Maan: sab teek haina?
Geet: haan
Maan: kissi ne tumme tang nahi kiya na?
Geet: nahi
Maan: hwz your studies?
Geet: good
Maan: this is for you
Geet is surprised to see the laptop…
Geet: iski kya zaroorat thi?
Maan: I don’t want you to go missing again
Geet: I won’t
Maan: take it
Geet takes it from him…
Geet: thanks
Maan: you need it na?
Geet: sure
Maan: ok, do well, I must go
Maan walks off…
Geet: wait
Maan turns back and looks at her…
