Part 49
***************************
Two weeks has passed and Geet has nowmoved to Villa with Maan. But her college was going on full swing. Maan wasalready a busy person but geet was busy with her studies too. Her friends wouldvery frequent come here for discussion and group studies. Maan felt that theuirhouse was other Medical college hostel. But he did not interfere in that part.She was so elegantly shaping her career. He respected it.
But other than studies and his businessmeetings, if they were free, Maan would not let Geet free.
****************
7 Months passed of their marriage butthey both had been busy in their respective career. Maan had only said Geet, hewas busy in something that is most important project of his life.
He was giving it day and night. Seeinghim so involved in project, spending his most time in travelling and meetingdue to that project,
Geet had been tempted to ask, what thisproject was, but Maan had only said "you will know at right time" . He was soconfident of this project.
Geet herself had been too busy as thiswas final year. Not only final year, but she had her other future career planthat she had to concentrate and start working on.
So in starting of these marriage months, they got really less to see each other but still, what ever little time they got, Maan would not leave a chance to pamper her, shower his love and passion on her while Geet would love to flow in his passion and pool of love.
Still today, even after being a wife, this whole life of her was given by him, shaped by him. Deep within she worshiped him, he was her God on earth. Geet would never go against Maan.
But in all this, what Geet felt was Maan had really shrink his life to her or his projects. He was cutting off badly with his family and it was paining her.
She felt bad, especially for his parents. Kamini, had called Geet many times. Geet knew too that it can't got his way. They have to be part of family, bring whole family together. But at present, she had no time to concentrate on that side. This was critical stage of her career; only after this her dream could be fulfilled. And also Maan had strictly warned her to not interfere in any family matters, he wanted her to keep away from all. She can't go against his words, so she has to explain her point to him and make him understand and then handle him too. For all which she needed time.
************************
It was Geet's day of getting graduation. She has topped as per everyone's expectation and has become a gold medalist.
Geet was seated with her whole group in the 3rd row, waiting badly for her husband to see this moment. More than her it was moment for him. He had said, his flight will reach Mumbai early this morning.
But it had been 9 then 10 but there was no sign of him. She had felt lucky whne the ceremony had been delayed, the surprise chief guest has been late. Man has not been picking his phone too. Worries were surrounding her.
Then it was announced that the chief guest has arrived but Geet's whole concentration was on Maan. She was looking at her watch, her finger on dialing and looks here and there. She never realized when the chief guest must have made his position on front row, nor did she care now.
Principle made the speech, then VC and the all authorities. They praised, specially teachers and students. Geet's praise was obvious.
Then the Chief guest was called up onstage "Our Chief Guest, Mr Maan Singh Khurana, who have contributed to the university in many ways."
Geet did not know how she was feeling, relief, happiness, shock surprise, all together.
Geet looked up to see Maan elegantly going up the stage. He started his speech. The speech was encouraging and full of guidance and whole audience felt his attentiveness on people but Geet could read him smiling with his eyes at her when they met hers, but she turned away in anger. As much as proud she was of this moment seeing him here, she was so angry at him for putting her under so many worries. Maan could feel her anger, but he loved pampering her after her anger.
The awards were presented, and Geet could feel the pride in his eyes as he presented her one. Yes, he was the perfect man to present the medal to her. It was their, esp. his life long, earned medal.
The ceremony ended, Maan being busy with all higher officials and Geet with her friends. Geet was with her friends in college canteen enjoying the last union like this. Maan somehow ended his meetings with authorities and came to the canteen. Friends indicated Geet that he was there but Geet turned her ack to him, ignoring him. Maan smiled within and came to her group.
"Hi All" Everyone obviously replied with full respect except one
"Well someone wants special attention, I guess." He smiled at her friends. And before Geet could realize ,he came to her back, winked at her friends and picked her in his arm. Geet got surprised by this sudden act, completely unexpected. But before she could react she was being efficiently been carried in his arms.
Maan then did all to pamper her.
In evening, he took her to a posh restaurant to have dinner. The tables were set outdoor and side by water flow was beautifully designed. It was peaceful.
Maan placed his hand on hers, their eyes met and Geet could see so many dreams in his eyes. It scared Geet, she just hoped she will not hurt him by her decision.
"Geet, I want to gift you something" Geet smiled ashe tighten his hold on her hand "My new project that I have been working these days, was all for you."
He showed her the pics, it was a mega hospital. He described his plan, all instruments there were latest, using latest technology and there will be experts from abroad to set up the whole system. It was all for her and she can efficiently start her career from here and later set things as per her plan.
Filled with so much emotion, Geet felt her throat chocked.
Geet didn't know what to answer, how to say, she could not gather courage to look into his eyes.
Maan was so confident, this was best gift for her, and he had put his so much in this. He was expecting a bright, super happy, surprised expression from her but her not even simple thanks confused him.
"Maan" came out from her chocked voice as she could still not gather courage to speak to him. His love was making her weak.
Maan could not bear this condition of her, "What happened baby" he pulled her hands to him "just speak up, there is nothing important than you".
And this hit her even hard, why did he love her so much. How could she gather courage to speak up if he love her so much.
"woo woo" he turned her face to meet his "Aram se, speak up your mind." He gave her his assuring smile,which says he will stand by her in any case.
Geet closed her eyes - No she has to gather courage.
"woo apko yaad hoga, when they were trying to get me married. You came to remind me of my career, I had promised HP people that I have a dream to become a doctor and serve them"
Maan felt a big shatter in his heart as he guess what's coming up. "Maan I have a carrer plan" Geet did not know from where to start as denying his wish was major thing for her "but if you think mujheyeh hee kerna chahiye I will do. Aap tou sab jyada sahi janenge na"
But how could he deny her, she was his world, his wish was above all. "Geetu" he tried to be casual "Tum bolo kya dimag mehai tumhare.Yeh project to aise he hai" he felt a pang in his heart speaking so, he knew how much heart he has put into it for her, how much dream he has seen for the project only for her. Geet felt his pain, however casual he was trying to be, that was their bond.
She kept quiet, looking down, how could she.
"Geetu" he warned, she looked up "aap mana ker dijiyega,no problem"
"Will you speak up now" Geet knew she has to be strong; it was regarding her promise and her dream from the first day she has joined medical.
"I want to do internship in HP, in the public hospital there, where I can try to improve medical facility for people there."
"So you will have to stay in HP for 1year, do you realize that"
"yes I do." Maan kept quiet for a while, silent prevailed as they got busy with their dinner and thoughts.
"Ok I will get the Haveli ready there" "woo theek nahi hoga" "kyun"
"I have not yet been accepted in your family au raise kaise main wahan"
"aur waise bhi, I want to stay in the rooms provided to interns and there I want to work being within the people."
"aur main? " camed his cracked voice"App pareshan honge tou I will drop this plan. These are all very minor things. Aapka haq mere zindagee ke har pal per hai Maan"
"aur meri zindagi ka her pal tumharee khushi ke liye hai, abb bolo. Say me all you have in mind. Mujhse kabse chipane lagee tum dil kee baat"
"This staying away from Family, ignoring whole family and you separating yourself from whole family is eating me up. They are never bad to you, only their views on me don't math with you. Please don't separate urself from family"
"I don't want to argue on this." "but it's troubling me, I feel guilty. Please I want a chance."
"what u want chance for, plead in front of them all and they showing you down"
"No, I won't let anyone show me down. But if I don't interact, how will they know me and accept me for what I am really. Please"
She kept looking at him "OK" he said at last "but if" "please trust me, I won't let anyone hurt me. I know that will hurt you"
"do as you wish. Don't expect anything from me in that case."
********************
They lay on bed, both quiet. Geet gave him space as he was lost in realizing that Geet was also an individual with her own thought. She has her own plans. Its not that if he keeps planning for her, she does not have right to have her own plan.
But somewhere within it pained, he had gave his everything in last 1 year for this project, but he can't force it on her.
