Mg SS- It Takes Two...THREAD #1 - Page 43

A certain rage rose within her... how could he? How could he be so ruthless? Is that the way to even talk to someone?

"hey move...", and his words stuck in his throat as she flipped her hairs to her back, facing him. for once he felt he wasn't supposed to be here!!! A face so innocent and so pretty... that was the first impression he got, he had never seen in his life!! Their eyes met for a while and time seemed to stop until annie came and helped Geet stand up.

He was rooted for a while as he watched Annie help the girl up who seemed quite stunned to see him as well. he thought for a while but couldn't recall if he had seen her earlier!! he just watched her face as their eyes were still stuck to each other, though with different reasons.

"hey hey... tum theek ho??", annie asked helping her.

[hey hey are you alright?]

"umm... ", Geet was so at loss of words. Why was he here? Why why why was he here now??

Annie looked at maan and literally jumped on him, hugging him tightly, "bro..."

Maan was so happy to see his little sis. He almost lifted her and twirled her around with a wide smile on his face. But in all this his eyes didn't miss Geet standing right in front of them with her a myriad of emotions playing on her face. Who was she?

Maan put her down as she squealed in happiness, "I missed you bro..." and then her eyes fell on maan who was staring at Geet and Geet seemed quite lost. Umm.. maan bro looking at some girl..she smirked.

"ahem... ok bro..this is Geet... dadima ke koi friend ki granddaughter hain..yahan apni padhai khatam karne ke liye aayi hain...and Geet.. this is maan bro... meine bola tha right..."

[ahem..ok bro.. this is Geet.. granddaughter of some friend of dadima.. she is completing her education here.. and Geet.. this is maan bro.. I had told you right...]

He looked at her, trying to read her expressions.. but her face had turned a bit pale. She held the card so tight, almost crushing it and ran away to her room, locking herself within.

Maan and annie stood there surprised at her behaviour and then at each other!! Maan sighed..he'd better see dadima first.

"wo bro...she is a little conscious types..."

umm..whatever...", he rolled his eyes and walked off. He didn't know what made him stop and have a look at her for he had never ever given any random girl a damn!

Geet fell on her bed, with tears streaming her eyes... why has he come back? After all these days... when she had made herself strong enough to move on! why was babaji being so hard on her? he doesn't even recognise her.. should she take it as a good thing or a bad thing?

Annie knocked and she quickly wiped her tears, put some gloss on and opened it.

"Geet..are you okay? Aise wahan se bhaag ke kyun chali aayi?"

[Geet.. are you okay? Why did you run away like that?]

"wo... annie..mujhe college ke liye der ho rahi hai na...isiliye..."
[wo annie.. I was getting late for college na.. thats why]

"umm..chalo I will drop you.."

Geet smiled and stopped her. "maan aaye hain na.. tum unke saath raho.. mein driver ko le jati hun.. waise bhi classes 2 ghante ke hi hain.."

[maan has come na.. you be with him.. I will take the driver anyways have only two hours of classes..]

"okay babes...enjoy your day. I might as well stay in the house and enjoy the drama unfolding."

"huh...drama?"

"umm... bro is back right.. dadima and bro always have heated arguments and they can't stay away from each other as well."

Geet just wanted to get away from here and have her mind refreshed. Seeing maan after so long..probably the first time after marriage had stirred some bitter memories in her. she wanted to clear her head. She didn't want to face maan in this state of mind. she just waved a bye to annie and rushed out.

Maan walked in to see dadima sitting on her bed and reading something.

"dadima...", he went ahead and placed a peck on her cheeks dadima was so delighted to see him after such a long time. She hugged him, "we knew you will come back..."

"but not for the reason you are thinking dadima.. I am here to take you all with me..."

Geet made sure she stayed immersed in her studies. She didn't want to go home and face maan or any more drama. Life had made the biggest joke of her. she called up annie and informed that she'd be in library for some assignment and would return only in the evening. she wanted to escape the present situation but how long could she run? She couldn't go back home and neither did she know much of delhi and its only dadima and annie that she could turn to now. sooner or later she had to go back and face the situation. She couldn't concentrate on her studies and finally made up her mind to go back. She'd avoid him as much as she can... her self-respect had been hurt big time... her love and dreams insulted! And these days in delhi had taught her to face situations face on... just like her first day in college when she was ragged and went home crying. annie and dadima had made her understand a lot and she knew they were right.

It was dusk when she slowly walked the driveway back to the mansion. She had taken an auto rickshaw to get back and saw anie sitting at the doorsteps, humming a tune.

"annie.. tum bahar kya kar rahi ho?"

[annie what are you doing outside?]

Annie rolled her eyes, "andar drama chal raha hain... tumhe free mein dekhna hain tho jao... mein tho yahin baithungi baba..."

[drama is on inside... if you want to see it in free then go.. I will be sitting here only]

Geet sighed. She shook her head, not wanting to think anything and decided to freshen up and sit with annie outside. She stepped in and heard no voice. Everyting was calm. She just walked into her room and freshened up. She wore a simple light green salwar kameez and came out, tieing her plait when she heard maan shouting, "dadima.. that it. Hum iske bare mein baat nahi karenge.. aap apni zid chod dijiye.."

[dadima..thats it. we are not going to talk about it anymore. Stop being stubborn..]

"behave yourself maan..."

"..you can't always decide what should I do in my life ok...", he was hell irritated.

Geet didn't want to interfere but then she heard dadima cough a bit. She was unwell. She wasn't supposed to take stress and maan was being too rude. Anger filled her heart..she could never let anyone wrong dadima who had done so much for her. she rushed into the room without knocking and saw dadima sitting on the bed, fuming. Her eyes were red shot and she did look very weak. She immediately took a glass of water and helped her with it.

Maan was irritated...how dare she? An outsider listening to their talks was something he despised.

"can't you knock and..."

Before he could even finish his sentence, she snapped back at him, "ye koi tareeka hota hain apni dadima se baat karne ka?"

[is that the way to talk to dadima?]

Anger filled his insides...how dare she come and speak back to him? who the hell she was to retort the MSK? As far as he knew she was some friend's granddaughter..she had no rights to interfere.

"tum hoti kaun ho mujhe tareeka seekhane wali? Meri dadima hain..mein jaise chahun waise baat kar sakta hun..."

[who the hell are you to tell me something? she is my dadima and I will speak to her in whatever way I want..]

"...dadima wo meri bhi hain..samjhe aap...", Geet screamed. Her irritation and frustration and above all his rudeness seemed to rub the wrong side of her.

[she is my dadima as well.. did you get it?]

It was then he noticed her looking so different from when he had seen her in the morning. She was wearing a salwar kameez and had tied her hair in a simple plait. She looked so... innocent! Her eyes spit fire but her innocence contradicted her anger. But he wouldn't let any darn girl shut him up.

"listen..humare ghar ke mamlon se dur raho samjhi...mehman ho..mehman banker raho.. I don't want to argue with you.."

[listen... don't poke your nose into our matters. You have come as a guest..behave like one..]

Geet was so damn enraged.. this rude man is just so..arrghh he is just so damn rude! But she wouldn't lose to him. if it was a month earlier, she'd have cried and kept mum.. but life shows you things is very different way to change you.

"...aur aap ghar ke bete hain.. beton ki tarah rahiye.. badon se kaise baat karte hain.. itna bhi nahi aata... huh!!"

[and you are the son of this house... behave like one. Don't even know how to speak to elders...]

What dadima had thought to turn out a bitter quarrel seemed suddenly so amusingly funny to her. she was really scared hearing their argument but then the way it was turning and Geet fighting back..she could at least be relieved that they talked...somehow! knowing Geet, she knew how hard it would have been for her to see him again and face him after what he had done to her. she had even planned to tell maan about Geet being his wife and finally take a stand in their relation but she kept mum, trying hard not to smile. a future vision of them being together once again danced in front of the old lady's eyes and she just gave in to her greed, keeping her mouth shut!

Geet helped dadima settle down and shot a stern look to maan who suddenly didn't know how to answer her back because he knew he was wrong to have been shouting at dadima.

"..dadima aap araam kijiye.. aaj mein dinner bana leti hun...", she spoke as she kept the pillows around her and walked out.

Maan breathed in sharply as he settled beside dadima and ran his fingers through his hair, "am sorry dadima.. I shouldn't have been rude to you..."

Dadima smiled...maan always apologised after he realized he was rude but then this time, the situation was a little different, "...its okay beta..."

"... kahan kahan se utha ke laati hain aise sample pieces dadima.. himmat tho dekho.. maan Singh Khurana se zaban ladati hain... "

[from where do you get such samples dadima... look at her guts.. daring to retort to maan Singh Khurana..]

"..and this is why we got her married to you in the first place mr khurana..", dadima mumbled to herself and pretended to be oblivious to everything.

Geet stood by the counter, taking out all the frustration on the poor veggies. Tiny droplets of tears sparkled in her eyes as she spoke to her babaji complaining about getting maan back into her life! she had mentally prepared herself that he would never accept her and she'd somehow live her life..but this was difficult. He never recognised her...hell who cares. He hadn;t even seen her face on their first night! she slashed the potato with one swift swing of her knife when annie held her hand, "kiska murder plan kar rahi ho darling?"

[who's murder are you planning darling..]

She had just heard about maan and Geet's fight from dadima and came t check on her and found her mercilessly chopping off the vegetables.

Upon hearing no reply from Geet, annie side hugged her, "yaar bhai is short tempered and unhe pasand nahi koi unki baat ko kaate... he is good at heart.. ab please gussa chodo...and keep the knife away. I hve only one brother yaar..."

[yaar bhai is short tempered and he doesn't like people reorting back.. he is good at heart. not spit out that anger and keep the knife away. I have only one brother yaar..]

"... badtamezz..", get mumbled to herself as she put all the vegges in the pan to stir fry.

[mannerless...]

Nakul helped Geet at the dining table where maan and annie sat talking to each other. She avoided eye contact with him and so did he. Annie noticed that. Geet served annie and then passed on the dish to nakul to serve maan. Maan noticed that but he could care a damn! This girl had already gotten into is nerves with her damned attitude. Geet served parathe and her mixed vegetable in a tray and went to dadima's room.

She knocked the door but then there was no answer. She knocked again and found the door open. She pushed herself in and horror gripped her heart. she immediately kept the plate on the table and rushed to dadima who was lying unconscious on the floor.

"dadima...dadima... annie... nakul...", she screamed she was so scared to see dadima not responding. Maan and annie heard her scream and rushed towards dadima's room. And in no time , they were following the ambulance towards the hospital. Maan was so damn scared. He stayed with dadima in the ambulance whie annie and Geet drove in annie's car.
