FATE 2
PART - 2
Geet was in turmoil. She only have problems but no solution. She needs money for her father's treatment. She wants rid from the new problem name Maan and lastly she wants security of her future.
“First get rid of this Mr. Khurana. I don't wanna upset my dad but if he back out from this proposal then I will be free from at least one headache."
She straight went to Khurana Building after leaving hospital. It's very urgent and important for her. It was huge and luxurious building. Every corner of it defining the wealth and class Khurana's have. She informed to receptionist but she didn't let her meet Mr. Khurana.
Geet turned upset but she didn't lose hope. She was determined, so she wait for him to come down. "Kabhi to niche aayega. Ghar to jayenge na Mr. Maan Singh Khurana.” she said sarcastically and waits in lobby. Until he arrived.
"Mr. Khurana please wait." She called him a loud.
Maan saw her and amused. He signals and his assistant left. He moved to her. "You here?"
"Can we talk? Please." She tried to talk in soft and calm tone.
He nodded and both went back to his cabin. "Have a seat Miss. Handa." He said softly.
She sat opposite to him. She was searching for a right word but don't have a patience now as she was waiting for him since two hours. "I don't wanna marry you. So please stop blackmailing my father." She said bluntly on his face and for few seconds he just glance at her face in amusement. "Hello I am talking to you." She thought he didn't hear her properly.
"I got it." His demeanor was very calm and composed.
Geet was shocked seeing no reaction from his side. "So you will not force my dad right?" She wants to confirm.
"Why should I?"
"Because he is forcing me to get married to you." She replied.
"Look miss Handa. It's true I like you. So I asked for you hand from him. But I never tried to force this relationship on you. In fact after my proposal your dad is vanished."
"He is in hospital." Geet replied briskly.
"Hospital?" His brows knotted. "What happened?" Maan sounds concerned.
"He had a stroke and need urgent surgery." She told him.
"I am sorry. I haven't know about this. He is a loyal employee. Ask me if you need any help." He offered help to her.
Geet's lips opened and closed again. She wants to ask monetary help but then she got scared what if he forced her for marriage in exchange of the money.
Maan scanned her face. "Don't hesitate. Tell me if you need help." He said but she was mute. "Don't worry, I will not ask for marriage in return of my favour." He added and Geet glanced at his face to confirm whether he was saying the truth or trying to trap her.
"Promise?" Her eyes were pleading this time.
Maan could see the fear in them. "Promise."
"My dad lost all his saving in gambling and now we don't have funds for his treatment." She explained.
"But Mr. Handa never gamble." He said.
"He developed this hobby recently and destroy our all savings." Geet replied while pressing her fingers. Maan read her every gesture in detail.
"Don't worry. Where he is admitted?" Maan asked and Geet told the name of hospital.
Maan instantly called the hospital and instructed them. "Now relax. You don't need to take any stress of his treatment." He assured her.
Geet stood up from her chair. "Thank you. Thank you so much for your help."
"It's okay." He said casually.
"No it meant a lot. I never thought that you will understand my situation but you did and I am very great ful for that."
She once again showed her gratitude and left.
Maan was sad but he didn't show it to her. He really like her but She rejected him on face. "I will wait for you. Hope one day you change your mind ." He was optimistic about them and hoping for her to like him.
Geet straight went to hospital and talked to doctor. He informed her about the surgery. Now they have the support of Mr. Maan Singh Khurana so no need of delay anymore. Khurana industries paying the bills now so they schedule the surgery in the morning.
"Thank you doctor."
"Say thanks to Mr. Khurana, who himself called for the surgery." Doctor said and walked out.
Her father is sleeping so she just sat next to him and praying for the best.
Next day was very big for her. Every second she just praying for her father's well being. Every passing second seems like ages to her. But her prayers accepted by God. Surgery done and was successful too.
She was very happy. Tears of happiness rolled out from her eyes. Her father was shifted to I.C.U for observation. But there is nothing serious. He was saved on time.
Geet stay whole day in hospital. Just left in evening when doctors told her to leave as she isn't allowed to stay at night. Plus right now her father was under observation so they didn't let anyone near him.
She went back to home and take bath first. She was tired and hungry as whole day she only have tea and sandwich.
After fresh n up she looked into fridge which really upset her. "Damn there is nothing I should have." She slammed the door and thought to buy some groceries. But it was too late for that.
She called Ronnie and thought to have dinner with him. But he didn't picked up her calls. Geet got tensed. "Why he isn't picking up my calls. He didn't even called me for once. Strange. I told him about dad's surgery, still. Na wo hospital aaya or na abhi call pick kar raha hai. Why?" She got tensed and sat down on couch.
Same time her phone buzzed and she picked up quickly. Thinking it was from Ronnie, but it was from her friend Piya. "Hello Geet how are you? Did uncle's surgery goes well?"
"Yes he is doing well. You tell how is the exam?" Geet was actually disappointed as it wasn't from Ronnie.
"It goes fab. Anyways I called you as I am angry with you. I agree you are with Ronnie but you unheard me. That's not fair." She cribbed.
Geet's brows knotted. "Piya what are you saying? When I ignored you?"
"Today, half an hour ago. When you are with Ronnie on his bike. I called you two three times but you didn't looked back and he paced the bike. Very bad." She complaints.
"Piya I half an hour ago , I was in washroom. As whole day I was in hospital, so I was getting fresh n up." Geet replied.
"Are you sure Geet? Because I saw Ronnie with a girl. So I thought it was you as I didn't saw the face." She told her.
"Piya where you saw him?" Geet asked suspiciously.
"I saw them coming out from xyz resturant. I was in my car and they were on bike. I called but he paced the bike." She replied.
"Thank you Piya." She said and hung up the call.
Geet's mind was filled with many doubts. "Relax Geet, koi colleague bhi ho sakti hai. Don't make issue of it." She tried to compose herself.
