Note: No proofreading or editing done to this update. Kindly excuse the spellings and grammatical mistakes.

Judge Mr.shinde asked geet intently, "Anything you have in this to say Ms. Handa? " Geet knew it's a flop case and her client can't escape the charges.

"No your honor.. No further questions" geet closed the file with sigh of breath.

"All charges held for trial. Schedule it." Judge banged his gavel.

Geet rubbed her eyes with exhaustion thankfully; it was the last case of the day.

Maan brought the order copy to geet and Mr. Kapoor, the murderer, was led away by police.

"It's a clean case geet, so no deal" Maan said while putting back the files into his briefcase.

"What? What do you mean no deal?" geet asked him.

"Geet, that man is the prime witness. It's all on video. I would have to try really hard to lose this case at trial you know..." maan replied her explaining the obvious.

"Pack up your stuff and come with me," maan said urgently.

"hain? Per kaha?" Geet asked confused with his sudden change in his behaviour.

Geet packed up all the files and followed him out of the courtroom. She saw that maan was taking her towards the private office where prosecutors prepared witnesses and negotiated plea bargains. Maan led her into an open interview room shutting the door behind. Geet figured that he might have thought she is upset on the case trail, infact she wan't that concerned about the case.

"Maan I am not upset please stop worrying about it.. I""geet said but maan cut her sentence in mid "Geet I have not taken pitty on you... Trust me"

"So, you want to discuss a deal after all?" geet asked seriously.

"I'll think about it, but don't expect it to be fair with you" maan said smirking at her.

"hian?" geet said feeling a little confused. "So why did you want to come here?"

"Because I want to kiss that ever-arguing mouth." Maan said moving closer to her.

"Huh..oh" geet said surprised, and felt goose bumps form on her arms. They were at work. This was... different. He walked over and stood right in front of her. She could feel heat radiating from his body and, babjee he smelled good. He grabbed her chin and tipped her head back slightly. Then he looked intently into her eyes for a second, leaned down, and she could feel his warm breath over her face and sense his lips about to brush hers, when he pulled back teasingly. Geet opened her eyes again, unsure what to do and afraid to move. Geet started panting and a small whimper escaped her throat.

Her whimper has seemed to fire up and his mouth came down on her's hard and took total possession of it. So far he was a sensuous kisser but today he was more greedy and demanding; almost dominatin. He put his both hands inside her suit jacket and ran his fingers lightly along her back sending shivers up and down her spine. Geet couldn't handle this side of maan and his raw passion, anytime her knees might give up and she will collapse on floor.

"Geet I have a confession to make. When I'm in court with you, I tend to get a lot of testosterone & adrenalines flowing in court, the combination fires up my libido like you wouldn't believe." maan said in a husky voice with his forehead pressed over her's.

"I should argue with you more often" geet replied a little breathlessly.

"Tum tho hamesha muhjse argue karthi ho. We're lawyers geet, what do you expect?. And you've been driving me crazy for quite a while now. If we hadn't started dating I probably would have lost my mind and abducted you and I""maan wishpered something naughty in her ear.

Geet gasped at his comment, she hit twice on his arms.

"Maan..Thats so disgusting.."Maan just laughed at her.

"For the first time I'm happy that I'm a lawyer" geet said leaning her head on his shoulder

"Are you free on coming Friday evening?" maan asked her still caressing on her back and inhaling her scent over neck.

"I guess I am..why?"Geet asked looking up at his face.

"Well every year my family host a Charity event for women's welfare fund, and my mom is the co-chairman to this non-profit organization. I would be so glad if you come with me as a date to the event, or else my mom would set me up with her colleague's daughters/cousins/sisters. I don't want to spend my whole eveing with someone whom I couldn't tolerate" maan asked her with hope.

"But maan, what will your family think of me? Another notch on your belt?" geet asked bit worried and ready to face his wrath.

Maan held her arms tightly, pulled her close "Listen carefully geet when I say this, and I just say it once..I never took a girl on any family events. Forget about taking her on any where, I never hooked up with the same girl twice in my life and how many times I have to make you realize it's just you, you are different and I am not going to leave you any time sooner. Don't you dare compare yourself with others, and better get this engraved on your mind that you are only mine..Sirf meri...do you understand" maan's face was only an inch far from geet's. When someone knocked on door, immediately Maan kissed her hard one last time before leaving breathless-baffaled geet behind in the interview room.

"See you later Geet" maan straightened his hair and collar of his shirt before stepping out of the room.

Next Day (Tuesday)

At courtroom

Case no. 408: Mr.Mehara vs Mrs.Mehara

Geet's client Mrs. Mehara was accused for simple assault trial. That meant that the judge would determine whether or not she was guilty of assaulting her husband Mr. Mehara, who was claimed to be a victim.

Today geet's babaji is with her and the angels were smiling down on Mrs. Mehara. Fortunate for geet and Mrs.Mehara and unfortunate for Mr.Mehara, Today's sitting at the courtroom is Judge Ms. Sharmila Mathur; President of the Women's welfareAssociation. The courtroom also happened to be packed with women who had dated Mr.Mehara at least once in their lives.

"Mr. Mehara, kya aap iss adalat ko bata saktehy hain 22^nd feb ki raat ko police q aapkey ghar aana pada, aisa kya huwa jo aapne police ki zarurut padi?" Maan asked the witness.

"main apni biwi ke saat apne bedroom main sooraha tha aur achnaq mere biwi ne mujhe dande se maara shuru kardiya bina matlab ki...main ghar ke bahar baagaya aur mere biwi ne mera peecha nahi choda ...bahar aakhey bhi ussne maara chalu kiya tabb mere neighbours ne police ko inform kardiya."

"Let's go back, you were in bed with your wife and what specifically happened?" More like what hadn't happened, geet sneered cynically.

"err..woh hum..meri biwi acchanaq se mujhe kutton ki tarha sunkna shuru kiya..woh gussa hogai aur paas main padi dande se mujhe maara shuru kardiya"

Many women sitting in the courtroom grumbled angrily, everyone has this murderous look plastered on their faces.

"Are you saying that she became angry without any reason? " geet raised her eyebrows with suspicious at maan.

" Usse shakk ki beemari hain, ussne mujh per shakk hian ki mera samband kisi dusri aurat ke saat hain..your honor main bekasoor hun, meri biwi mujhe roj maar-peet karti hain. Mujhe shanti se jeene nahi deti..hamesha paison keliye mere peeche padi rehati hain..mujhe shakk ki nazoron se dekhti hain...aap please mujhe iss chudale ki chunggu se bachalijiye your honor" Mr.Mehara cried like a 5 year old, well it looked like genuine tears atleast geet thougth he can get a best actor award.

"hey sabb joot hain your honor!" Geet's client got up from the defense table and yelled at Maan. "That selfish bas***d is lieing your honor" One of the spectators seated behind yelled.

"Mrs. Mehara!" Geet whispered harshly gritting her teeths, all but forcing her to sit down.

"App please shaanth hojahiye...you can't yell like this in courtroom..please take your seat."

Judge Mrs.Mathur warned "Mrs. Mehara! Please be seated, listen to your lawyer and remain calm for your own good. And I'll need everyone in the courtroom to remain quiet, please."

Mrs. Mehara was angry-fuming and geet didn't blame her even judge Mrs. Sharmila mathur looked like she didn't either.

"Okay! Mr. Mehara," maan continued with his question, "aapki biwi ne kaise attack kiya aur kaha kaha pe maar padi?"

"dande se attack kiya aur mere peet per, sirr pey aur garden per mara"

"kahi se bhi khoon nikli?" maan glanced at geet and actually looked embarrassed. Geet could actually tell that he hated this case.

Mr.Mehara thought for a while "nahi, khoon kahi se bhi khoon nahi nikla..woh bahut gussey main thi aur baar baar dande se maarahi thi."

"And you said she ran after you?" There was more mumbling in the crowd and Judge Mrs. mathur shot them a warning look.

"Yes..I headed for the door and she threw my clothes after me. Jab meri neibhour ne hamhey dekha tho ussne police ko inform kardiya."

"That's all your honor..No further questions." maan sat down with a look of relief.

"Miss. Geet Handa, cross examine please." Mrs.Mathur gave her a look that made her think that she was hoping to kick this guy's ass.

Geet was so happy to oblige. Mr. Mehara was going down possibly for the first time in his sorry life. Geet stood up and advanced towards him confidently. He seemed to shrink back and bit scared.

"Mr. Mehara, aapko gairi choot tho nahi lagi hain na?" geet asked.

"Nahi ...ittni takat kaha hain ussmain?" He started to laugh at his own stupid joke but geet cut off his laugh and asked her next question. Geet started at him with disgust when he grinned looking at her chest shamelessly. Geet got the feeling that he wasn't used to women standing up to him.

"So she beat you with a stick and you didn't have a single mark on you?" geet asked while shooting draggers at him.

"I object your honor..." maan still had to do his job even if he hated the case and even hated more to stand against his Geet.

"Objection Overruled. Jawab dijeeye Mr.Mehara." Geet got the feeling that the judge really wanted to say answer the question douche bag it must be hard to be a judge sometimes.

"mera matlab hain ..jaisi ki woh mera sirr podthi main ghar ke bahar baagyaI I knew she wanted to beat the crap out of me." geet walked over to the defense table and made a show of picking up the file and looking it over.

"There's nothing in your statement to the police that indicates that she threatened you and there was no serious injuries were done?"

"Aisa nahi hain.. usse bolne ki jarurut nahi thi..." mr.mehara murmured an answer geet's question directly.

"aapne police ko inform nahi kiya tha, did you?" geet asked him.

"Nahi...per" geet cut him off.

"you said something to her before she shoved you out the bed and started to hit you, didn't you?"

"shaayad ..main kaha hoga ki darling tum thoda moti nahi hogai...aur main tho sirf majaaq karraha tha your honor..." Mr.Mehara said grinning like idiot.

There were actually some boos from the spectator section and someone called out, "saale you are lucky you weren't with me that night or this would have been a murder trial!"

"Order Order Order...I want pin drop silence in this courtroom!" Mrs.Mathur banged her gavel three times.

Geet glanced over at Maan who was rubbing his eyes. He was barely hiding his disgust for the victim in his case and he looked like he wanted to leave.

"And your wife said that you called her monika but her name is Mrs. Sonia Mehara, Correct?"

"woh mera tounge slip hogaya tha." Mr.Mehara grinned like idiot again scratching his head.

"Aap tho gymming karthey hain aur body-shody ka bhi shok rakkthey hain, right?"

"haan ...main body building main state champion rechuka hun your honor..." he said as if it his greatest achievement so far - geet cursed mentally asshole

"so your wife is 5'2 ft and weighs 65, right?"

"shyaad hogi thoda jaada baari hogi.." He said watching his wife near defending table. His wife was fuming within hearing his comment.

"Mr.Mehara, here says that your wife's intention is not to hurt you or attempted to murder. "

"She wasn't, but she hit me with stick." He was starting to sound like a child.

"She threw your clothes out the door, correct?"

"per main already ghar ke bahar kada tha half naked ..it was the same thing."

"so your neighbor threatened to call the police because you stood outside half naked and yelling at your wife, right?"

"Y-Y-Yes" Mr. Mehara gave me a mean look and stood there sulking like child. Geet would have liked to have assaulted him for real. Geet knew most of them in courtroom, including the judge and the prosecutors would have happily helped her beating the crap out of this shamless ladies man.

Geet was happy for accomplishment she was set out to do and Mr. Mehara wasn't laughing now.

" Your honor meri client Mrs.Sonia Mehara's intenstion is not to do any harm to Mr.Mehara. pati patni ke beech aisi choti moti haata-pai hoti rehati hain. Aur Mr.Mehara is one character less husband who flirts with every female even if it is a female dog..Their many so many ladies who has suffered because of this man, they are ready to give testimonial on this trail. Aise logon ko hamari saamaj main kisi bhi taraha ka samman nahi dena chahiye...and one more thing your honor my client Mrs. Sonia Mehara wants to file a case seeking divorce from Mr.Mehara" thats it, He might need a police escort to get out of this courtroom.

"That's all your honor, No further questions." Geet sat back down. Mrs. Sonia Mehara looked releaved.

"Any cross questions from prosecutor side?" Mrs. Mathur asked with a big smile.

"No, Your Honor." Maan wasn't stupid "Whatever the Court decides.."

" All charges are held on Mr.Mehara and askes defence to submit the trail order copy. Final hearing is on next session, the date will be announced on display list. The court is adjourned now"
