Part – 74
On the way back to Delhi, both of them remain silent…
They had a lot to think about.. they have got to know each other more… specially Geet, Maan has never seizes to surprise her with his goodness and his love for her…
This time Geet has got to see that MSK, who fell in love with his Mishty, irrespective of his status as a single father, that MSK who has accepted her as his Saathi, and not just a wife or the other parent to complete his family….
They are back at KM…
As soon as they reach KM, Geet runs to meet Dadima…
Maan stops her by holding her hand….
Maan: Geet, why are you always in a hurry? You need to slow down Geet, it’s high time you realize that you are an adult with a lot of responsibilities and stop getting into trouble with your haste
Geet is puzzled by Maan’s sudden worries about her…
She thinks that it might be because of what happened at Amritsar, Maan must still be mad at her and wants to keep an eye on her….
Geet: it’s ok Maan, I’ll be more careful, I promise you that I won’t do anything to trouble you again
Maan: come with me
Maan asks Nakul to get juice for Dadima… .
Nakul brings juice for Dadima and for Maan as usual…
He doesn’t know that Geet is here and also she is not a fan of juices…
Geet: Nakul, mein Dadi ko lekhe jaathi hoon
Geet takes one glass and Maan takes the other…
When Geet tries to move, Maan stops her…
Geet: Maan, I won’t run with the juice in hand
Maan pulls her closer and gets the glass from her…
He then makes her sit and gives the glass back to her…
Geet looks at him confused..
Maan: pehle tum piyo Geet
Geet: but it’s for you
Maan: Geet, no arguments, just drink it, I don’t know how I would manage two kids when Mansi comes
Geet: Maan, I’m not a kid, don’t treat me like one, I hate this only, I know I’m a mother now
Maan is shocked to know that she knew about her pregnancy….
Geet was ready to give up their baby? What’s wrong with this girl? What kind of a mother is she?
Geet: I transformed from a girl into a mother the moment I saw Mansi, Maan I think you have no idea why I married you, it’s not just for us, it’s for Mansi as well
Maan then realizes that Geet was talking about Mansi…
Maan: I know Geet, that’s why you have to get trained to be a parent before our baby comes
Geet: what?
Maan: Mansi is our child Geet, from now on you are her mother and no one can change that
Geet goes and hugs Maan…
Geet: that’s what I expect from you and nothing else, I’m so happy now
Maan: I’m also very happy Geet , I know you will be the best mother
Maan kisses her forehead….
Geet: thanks Maan, for believing in me at last
Maan: pehle juice piyo, you have to be strong to take care of Mansi na?
Geet: haan, I know
Geet drinks the juice like an obedient child immediately…
Now Maan has to take care of this child and the child within this child….
It’s going to be a huge responsibility for Maan, that too after all the dangers surrounding Geet…
That night…
Geet is sleeping peacefully beside Maan…
Maan couldn’t sleep thinking about what happened..
Whatever it may be, Maan is happy that they are going to have a child together…
This will definitely take this relationship to the next level..
Though their love for each other is growing stronger, their relationship is still going through a rough patch…
There is still a lot of uncertainty in Geet’s mind about her decision to marry him in such a short span of time, that too against his wish to postpone it for some time…
Geet is scared that she might have made a fatal mistake by forcing this wedding on Maan…
Maan is trying to assure her time and again that she is not at fault for whatever is happening… Maan wants her to know that he too loves her as much as she loves him..
Maan wants her to realize that she has become an inevitable part of his life and she is his pillar of strength that holds him from breaking..
Maan turns and looks at her tummy… there is the gift of their love…
Maan puts his hand over her tummy and tries to feel the presence of their baby…
Geet senses his touch and she thinks that he is trying to cuddle..
Geet places her hand over his and puts it around her waist…
She herself turns towards him and moves closer to him…
She then puts her hands around him and tightens her hug…
Maan is scared that the baby would suffocate…
But it’s yet to get into the form…
Maan tries to move back a bit..
Geet doesn’t like that… she tightens her hold even stronger…
Maan slowly gets up and pretends to go to the loo..
Geet then lets him go…
Maan comes back and this time he goes and lies on the other side of the bed, hugging her from the back…
Geet is also happy to be sleeping under his arms…
Maan is making a bonding with his baby already by placing his fingers over the womb.. he is telling his baby that though Geet is not aware of the baby’s presence, he is here with his little bundle of joy to welcome…
Maan falls asleep happily with his extended family…
Next morning…
Geet is in the washroom…
Maan hears a loud noise and rushes to see that his baby is not hurt…
Its just normal that Geet does everything in a hurry and keeps dropping something or the other…
But Maan is unnecessarily scared as he only knows about her condition….
Maan enters the washroom to find Geet brushing, she has just dropped the toothpaste and everyone is fine…
Geet is puzzled to see Maan entering in a hurry…
Geet thinks that he must want to use the potty and she comes out leaving the room for him…
Maan doesn’t know how to manage like this without telling the truth to her…
At breakfast…
Nakul has kept the papaya salad for Dadima…
It looks tempting…
Geet goes for a serving…
Maan stops her all of a sudden…
Maan: Geet, ye tum kya kar rahi ho?
Geet turns to him and looks at him confused…
Geet: Maan, I think we are here to have the breakfast
Maan: par tum ye nahi khayegi
Geet: kyun?
Maan: ye mere liye tha
Geet: kya?
Maan: haan
Maan snatches the plate from her…
Geet: par Maan, aapko papaya pasand nahi haina?
Actually Maan hates the smell of papaya…
Maan: but I know it’s good for health
Maan eats the whole plate in a minute…
Geet knows that Maan is not liking it much…
Geet takes the her apple juice and gives it to Maan..
Maan: it’s for you Geet
Geet: it’s ok, I’ll get another one, you have this, this is also good for health
But Geet’s juice is loaded with sugar… Maan hesitates….
Maan: nahi Geet
Geet: Maan, it’s just a juice, have it
Geet makes him drink it forcefully…
Maan did need something to get over that pungent smell of papaya…
Maan wonders what else he has to do for his baby…
He has to take care of the baby for he is the only one who knows about its arrival..
