Chapter 4
All throughout the week, Geet avoided all of her friends like plague, including Maan. Getting out of the apartment as early as possible, also getting early to classes in college...and spending her lunch break on the terrace... She was absolutely mortified about the incident... She didn't want to talk about it... The inner wasn't hers! It was her grandmother's... her brother had put it into her bag when she packed for Delhi and even spread gum all over it... And thus she had to wear all the traditional suits her mother had packed... Her brother's pranks had always landed her in trouble like then...Her hands were so sticky when she picked the bra up , so were few of her jeans and kurtis. She had gotten to task, washing all of them and laid them on the bed to dry... And that's when Maan had spotted it...
She was seriously contemplating whether to return back to her hometown... Maan had hit her self-esteem... Whenever Sam and Rose tried to corner her at the flat, she would be either asleep and locked cooped up in her room or she would be just too distracted to answer or simply dismiss them with "I don't want to talk about it... Please leave me alone"
Though, she did observe how lonely Maan was. She could read the guilt clearly written all over him. He was sorry for what he did with her' and thus she had forgiven him, she wasn't much of a unforgiving person...and she did realize he had totally different upbringing...It was clearly visible with the amount of "bees" following wherever he went! But socially, she felt really awkward to converse with people...
However last night, they- Sam, Rose, Serry and painstakingly Yash; forcefully made her sit and cheered her up involving her in truth and dare or dumb charade games. Absolutely no one spoke about the incident. Geet noticed and felt grateful for that. She had wanted to talk about Maan to them but just couldn't... She would just chicken out when all of their attention was on her.
Finally summoning up enough courage, "Serry ... You should talk to Maan..." Geet said in a small voice. They had again gathered together to cheer her up like last night, even Sameera. Yash simply looked on, mused by the drama unfolding!
"And why do you think I should talk to that bas***d after the stunt he had pulled that day..." Serry said sternly. Of course they knew Geet wasn't with him that night. She had jet lag from the trip and slept like a baby the whole night, soundly. Even Rose agreed with Serry... they were all very angry with Maan. Maan did pull off funny pranks but none affected people as it did to Geet. They could see it...the change in her behaviour...her being reserved...the change in her outfits...from jeans to all time traditional suits. Perhaps regretting for being here.
Yes she did regret being here now...but with what face would she return back... She had fought with her parents to study here... she couldn't... wouldn't back out this easily. But yes she was hurt with his act... Very very hurt... It was all playful banter, she had thought... but he is very competitive. It was better for her to stay away from him... Yes she would stay away...
"Please Serry ... He is your best-friend... It is making me guilty for separating you both..." Geet said trying to convince him.
"Staying away was my decision..." Serry spoke with a glare. Geet looked at Rose pleading her to convince Serendovez. Geet stood frustrated.
"Fine... it's my problem... I know how to deal with it... None of you have to interfere with it..." She spoke sternly.
"But..." Rose was hesitant.
"Otherwise I will leave from here..." Geet spoke glaring at Serry.
"What the hell Geet..." It was Sameera this time... She did care for Geet..."for such a simple matter you will leave??" She said enraged.
"I don't like coming between any relationship be it friends or lovers... Sam" She said glancing at Sam meaningfully.
Sam looked at her confused... What was Geet talking about? Rose and Serry sighed thinking what to do...
Geet did notice how Maan and Sam got cozy during lunch...or anywhere else when Maan asked about Serry.
They called it a night.

Next day
As usual everyone attended their own classes. Serry and Rose ignoring Maan. He felt disheartened... As he entered his first class, his eyes lit up. Geet was sitting in his class... Well it was her class as well...but... On his seat Oops! He never allowed anyone but guess she didn't know... He sucked in a breath controlling his irritation and walked up sitting near her.
Now that he looked at her up close, he could see she was more of an inner beauty... Although the curls teasing her cheeks...her delectable lips and over expressive eyes are a treat to his eyes... there was something more to it... He couldn't help but get lost in her for few moments...
"You are on my seat..." He whispered in her ear blowing air softly...slowly. She jumped in shock.. then looking at him... She had her eyes immediately downcast... He scooted closer to her...
"Sorry... I will go..." She in no way wanted to confront him again... She stood up to leave but he blocked her way...
"You can sit... I want to talk with you..."
She fluttered her lashes looking here and there for an escape, futile attempts though as the professor came in and started the class.
She sat down quietly, shoulders slumped and listening to the professor intently.
"psshtt pshhtt... " He called out whispering. She tried to ignore. He did it again this time while twirling her curls around his index finger. She became conscious...him so close. This attraction or whatever feeling she was developing for him was not good.
It became increasingly irritating now...
"What..." She almost snapped at him but composed herself. His face fell a bit... He missed her defiant attitude...
"I wanted to talk to you..." He gulped. Geet looked at the professor consciously...checking whether he was watching them...
"After class please" She whispered back, dismissing him.
"No.. Now..." He was adamant. Stubborn and pain in ass' She thought.
Did she speak that out loud! Oh yes perhaps! Looking at his face she was sure she did!
He smiled grinning, "Oh yeaah I would be, when I pound you from your ba-" She clamped her hand shut on his mouth. What a disgusting man!
"Oh god, you are so disgusting " She hissed taking her hand back because he had licked it.
"Oh princess I am not any God... just a normal human being you know... but oh well I am in other matters if you know what I mean... Everyone wants a piece of this" He winked at her pointing at his sexy abs... She looked at him incredulously and sat back ignoring him the rest of the period.
As soon the bell rang, she darted out before he could even register her movement.
Damn! Why won't she let him say anything... I wanted to say sorry...' He grumbled pouting.
And the rest of the time he was searching for her till lunch break. Ofcourse he could have bunked his class to find her...but he didn't want to lag behind in studies...
Lunch break:
He saw her sitting at a corner at the other end of room again having a plate full. He wondered what is she made up of that she could gulp down so much and still remain soundly healthy.
He thought of something and marched towards her, determined.
Geet stood up feeling thirsty.
"I will be right back Rosey..." She said to Rose... walking to the counter to get some water. But then what will be her day without any trouble.
Midway...she saw someone colliding with the peon carrying eggs and next...that she saw... Maan covered with egg yolk and Yash having his leg extended and smirking. She was just one feet away . The peon scurried away leaving her to deal with Maan.
Maan glared at her murderously. If looks could kill she would have been dead by now...
Yash edging him on... "Hello egg king, seems eggs like you... Maan"
And hell broke...
With Maan landing a punch on Yash's cheek and Yash landing on her...crushing her petite form.
Maan looked on with discomfort yet enraged. Clenching his fist...his jaw ticking with unsuppressed rage...
Jealousy was it?' She thought but then discarded it. She wasn't any gorgeous celebrity that Maan would like or fraternize! He just felt guilty, yeah that's it!
