Part 8
Maaneet were walking along the beach, hand-in-hand.. All lost in their togetherness, silence between them they their heartbeats do all the talking.
Suddenly Geet saw a gola-wala (ice-candy seller) and screamed..
Geet : Maan...! woo dekho waha...chalo chal k gola khate hai...
Maan smiled, shook his head in no just to irritate her...
Geet pouted : plzzz...!
Maan : ok chalo...
how can he refuse her that too on their first ever date...!
they reached there and Geet chose kala khatta, while man opted out of having any, as he wanted to enjoy her expression when she eats the delicious ice-candy (understood...? or u want me to say "he wants to eat her with his eyes" 😆)
After she got her ice-candy, they again went near the beach, while Geet was eating her gola, Maan was eating her with his eyes 😛
This continued until both realized her gola was about to finish...
Maan thought she looks more adorable with the kala-khatta syrup smeared all around her plum lips 😳
He held her one hand which was free while her other hand held the gola, now her attention shifted from gola to him, she looked up to meet his gaze, their eyes met and they kept staring for a while, Maan slowly broke the eye-lock and she lowered her eyes shying...
He was all fida on the blush that crept on her dimples...he smiled to n held her chin to make look up to his eyes again
Ss soon as their eyes met again, Maan without wasting another sec spoke out
Maan : i love u Geet...!
As soon as the words reached her brain through her ears, her blush deepened, and she hid herself in his arms to hide the flush of her face from him...
He smiled at her reaction and brought up his hand which held hers near his lips in an intention to kiss the back of her palm...but before his lips could touch her hand...
SPLASSHHH...!
Maan woke up feeling freaking cold water touch his face...he fumed, firstly is this the way to wake someone up from sleep ...?
And secondly...he was abt to kiss his sweetheart on their first ever date...who dared to break it...?
He shouted in anger..
Maan : what the hell was that...!
And looked up to find a grinning Rahul there standing with an empty jug...!
Rahul : wake up buddy from ur sweet dreams...its 9:30 am
Maan : Rahull...! is this the way to wake someone up...? 3 saal South America me kya raha, waha k amazon forest k vasi ki tarah behave karr raha...!
Rahul : did i break ur beautiful dream or something... u r getting angry like i stole all the money u earned in lifetime...!
Maan gave a "what was that" look...
Rahul : whatever...go fresh-up n meet me in bf table in 10 mins...3 saal k baad frnd mila uski toh koi kadar hi nahi hai..
With that Rahul went frm Maan's room.
################
@brkfst table
Rahul was having bf with Avantika...telling her abt his experiences in South America.
When Maan came down all ready for his office (Sunday ko office...??😆)
Rahul : gm. buddy...now u look like Rahul's frnd
He gave a foolish smile which Maan ignored, Maan rolled his eyes and started to serve himself...but Rahul is Rahul...he started to irritate him by trying to take whatever Maan takes in hand...finally Maan spoke...
Maan : i'm still not in mood of talking to u after ur morning stunt...!
Rahul (to Avantika, taunting Maan) : aunty someone need to learn, ki guest k saath kaise behave karte hai...specially wo guest jo aapka frnd ho...aur 3 years k baad apne desh me land karte hi, apne ghar na ja kerr apne frnd se milne aaya ho...but then i know it's too much to expect from Mr. Maan Khurrana.
This really melted Maan, and seeing his expressions Rahul thought "teer nishane pe laga hai"
Maan : chal abb apna natak bandh karr and give me hug...!
Both stood up n shared a man-to-man hug.
They sat again to finish off their brkfst.
After the bf they headed to Maan's room to have a chat, they had lots n lots to catch-up due to 3 long years of gap. 3 years back Rahul had to go abroad suddenly as his papa wanted him to settle their new branch there.
As they reached the room and the door closed Rahul started his cribbing (nautanki) again.
Rahul : u know Maan...bachpan me i was very naughty...but noone used to punish me ...aaj samajh me aaya kyu...bcoz god knew ki tu mera frnd banne wala hai...toh kisi aur punishment ki kya zarurat hai ..
Maan (shook his head on his nautanki and said) : ho gaya...? abb bol ye sabb natak kyu..?
Rahul : 3 saal...3 bloody years and no phone call, no msg frm my best frnd...? can u explain this...?
Maan : i think tu bhul gaya hai ki phone karne k liye we need a 10-digit number...which u didn't give me...before going or after reaching...
Also if u remember u didn't even tell me u r leaving uncle did... and u didn't carry ur India number also...! aur baat toh aise kar raha jaise u used to call me daily...!
Rahul realised his mistake and tried to cover up..
Rahul : haan toh...! fb, watsapp ka naam suna hai...? n u could hav taken number from dad too...!
Maan : oh hello...! for watsapp also u need number only and i hav left using fb long back...and asking for num frm uncle didn't come to my mind..!
and...
Rahul : bass...! i loose u win
Maan : hhmm...thats good
Rahul : acchha bata subah kya sapna dekh raha tha wen i woke u up..?
at this Maan remembered his dream n shied a bit..!
Rahul : haayye ...what m i seeing...Maan Khurrana n blush...this is a kodak moment yaar...
And he clicked his blushing pic in his cell.
With the click of the camera...something clicked his mind too...
Oh yeah...hell yeah
It may be abt that girl...
The one they had chat about before he left for abroad...!
But how to ask Mr. angry young man...? think Rahul...!
Rahul : ok buddy come let's sit..have lots to catch-up
Maan : hmm...
And they sat to have some chat.
After discussing on random stuffs for about 20 mins Rahul thought...
Rahul (st) : ufff...iska kuchh nahi ho sakta..abb to straight point pe aana padega..itna hint diya parr ye dumb hi rahega..!!
Rahul : hmm... aur bata how's life...?
Maan : all well yarrr..
Rahul mentally slapped his head (st) : ye kabhi nahi sudhrega.
Rahul : you know Maan.. m asking about "the PERSONAL life"
Maan : 😕
Rahul(he was exasperated now) : fine if u want it that way then... how's the girl u LIKED... teri love-story aage badhi ya nahi...?
Maan shocked at his words, then shied a bit remembering Geet n his dream..hayye..!!
Rahul caught him shying and understood instantly.
Rahul : that means I was right...! I really broke ur sweet dream..!😛
Maan : yess u did...😳
Rahul : hayye..hayye...
(and started singing)
Khullam-khulla pyar karenge hum-dono
Iss duniya se nahi darenge hum-dono 😉
Maan stopped him as mom could hear them.
Maan : Rahul it's not like that.
Rahul : then u tell me how it is...? I was just guessing 😉
Maan : I love her...!
Rahul whistled at this and..
Rahul : yeah..! yeh hui na baat..mere sher... i'm proud of u bhai.
Maan was all red now..😳😳
Rahul : achha abb sharamana band kar n say propose kiya ki nahi..? what did she say..? does she also feel the same..?
He was going on and on..and Maan was gaping him like a fool...
Finally he stopped to breathe and Maan gave him water..
Rahul : wo sabb chhod yarr... first tell me how and when did u realize your true feelings for her..?
Maan smiled at his question... he still remembered the day, when he felt his life slipping from his hands, he felt like he has lost everything... And decided to share with his friend..
Maan : after that day conversation with u.. I decided to give this sometime and understand things before reacting or better to say over-reacting...
For that I thought that I will try to ignore her... like she is not present in class.. initially it was difficult with her doubts and ever-changing expressions... but slowly I started to succeed in ignoring her, I was very happy, and thought that it's good that things did not go complicated... it went on for around 3 months and things were all normal before that day...
-------fb-------
It was another usual day... Maan left the classroom as soon as the class ended.. while some students including Geet and group, were still sitting in class copying notes from the board...
Maan reached the parking and realized that he has forgotten his cell inside the classroom only.
Maan returned to the classroom and was shockked to see the things going on there...
all the students had left the class except Geet and group... and...
he moved to the door to have a closer look and what he saw made earth slip from his feet...
meet : Geet i really like you... will u be my GF...?
frndz : come-on Geet say yess..
Geet : umm... i haven't ever given it a thought yet..
meet : come-on yaar say something plz..
Geet : ok i agree..
In all these 2 ppl were looking at the drama speechless and with pale face..
They were pari and Maan...
while pari left the room with wet eyes...
Maan entered in with angry eyes and all straightened seeing him there suddenly...
Maan : what is going on here..?
all bend their head... not replying him.
Maan : is this what u come here for...? this is what u do to all the trust ur parents have on u..?
meet : we r very sorrry sir...
but Maan cut him
Maan : not a word more frm u...! its your life.. do whatever u feel like...but spare me...
No more such things happening here at my place, this the last warning and i mean it..!
come here attend the class and leave the premises immediately... and do whatever u want BUT outside not in here...
Am I clear enough...?
All nodded and went from there.
Though Maan scolded them like a teacher.. but his heart was bleeding and making it impossible for him to breathe even...!
---------fb ends--------
Maan : that was the worst day of my life i swear...!
only i know how i spent that night...not a sec of peace... soo much restlessness and upon that this heart bleeding...!
it was very hard..but I did somehow consoled myself saying. "they are of same age", "there's nothing wrong in that.." and what not.
Rahul : firr kya magic hua..?
Maan : tujhe mazzak lag raha i'm serious..
Rahul : ok u continue...
Maan : going next day to class was even more difficult.. I decided to take a day off... but then all network were down, and couldn't inform class cancellation so decided to face it once and for all..
-----fb continues----
The next day Maan reached class... and started teaching, he was in a real bad mood... but somehow controlled himself...
Last night was enough for him to realize that he had been a fool all this while to think there's no mess in his life and he's able to ignore her... and his feelings were just an attraction-distraction thing...
He had realized it hard that it was something much deeper and he cannot get over with it soon.
However hard he tried... bt he just couldn't control to have a glance at her..
He looked towards the students.. And what he saw..
Maan (st) : That boy... he was proposing Geet yesterday... then howcome he is sitting with the other girl today..? what was her name..ya pari...! And they seem to be "happily committed"..
Ye sabb kya chal raha hai...? 😕
Then he looked at Geet.. she was busy in her books...not aware of what's happening around...!
Maan got angry thinking that the boy is cheating on his Geet...oppss..! his Geet...???
Where did that come from..?
Anyways that's truth now, he thought...and decided to give that boy peace of mind at the end of the class..!
At the end of class...
Maan was waiting for all students to leave... as he cannot afford any more nuisance... that happened yesterday was enough...
After all students left... only Geet n group were in class, Maan was about to call that boy, before that he saw Geet came to him and signaled others to leave the class...
Maan was all lost in Geet standing near him and didn't realize that all students left only him and Geet remained in the classroom.
Geet : excuse me sir...! Can I take your few minutes..?
Maan (was brought back by her voice, and decided to hear her out) : what is it about...? Yesterday..?
Geet : yes sir...! We are extremely sorry for all that happened yesterday... it wasn't meant to disturb the decorum of the class but sadly it did.
Maan : its ok...!
Both were silent for few moments...but then Maan decided to say his view..
Maan : I hope u r aware of the recent developments.. and know what mess u have put urself into...!
Geet couldn't really understand what that meant... so she didn't reply instantly, which Maan thought that she didn't like his interference in her personal life, and immediately apologized..
Maan : I'm really sorry.. that is supposed to be ur personal matter... u may leave...!
Already he was all choked with the things happening since yesterday.. didn't wanted things to get worse..
But with this Geet realized what he's trying to say... And was shocked that he noticed that and cares for her... she smiled.
(like sir na... don't use ur mind much😛)
Geet : no sir it's not like u r thinking...
Maan looked at her to give his full attention to what she's saying... she continued
Geet : we are very sorry sir... actually it was all a drama by me to make my friends confess that they like each-other... But I think we went overboard, we r very sorry that all this made u disturbed and troubled.
As soon as those words hit Maan... he was all lost...!
Happiness, relief, peace.. all such emotions hit him.. he didn't even reply her back..
He was so very happy to even think of anything else.
Seeing him not replying, Geet left. And the sound of door closing brought him back.
----fb ends----
Maan : those 2 days are etched in my memory... I can never forget them.
With that Maan finished his love story...!
Rahul started clapping.
Rahul : waah waah...! U know.. tujhe na story teller banna chahiye... kya kahani sunayi hai... hayye...seriously u can outrun all the daily-soap writers...!
Maan (glared at him) : tujhe ye sabb mazzak lag raha hai...?
Just go away.. don't ever show me your face..
Rahul got up and wiped a drop of tear from corner of Maan's eyes and said..
Rahul : abb tu aise karega toh I have don't know any other way to make u feel normal.
Maan smiled at him... he was right
And both hugged.😊
