AA DEKHEN ZARA... KISME KITNA HAI DUM
MAAN SINGH KHURANA
MD of Khurana Constructions did not like girls .. he had bad experiences with girls.. For him girl means only greedy for money and status..till you are satisfying their hunger or greed for money they are with you..The day you are not they search someone who is richer than you.. It was not that he was not able to full fill their greed or desires but he had such bad experience at very young age,, he was in college that time... He was not a part of KC.He was only a son of one Business Tycoon of the city. He used to get a fix amount of pocket money at that time ..No matter he was the son of a big business tycoon . He was taught to live within limits.. in his last year of college he met with a girl named Sameera .She came as his junior..She was very beautiful and Maan was the most handsome lad of the college.. Sameera was the daughter of another business tycoon of the city and was most pampered as she was the only daughter and was the heir of her father's Empire..She was a girl who could get anything and anyone whom she liked.. She saw Maan and liked him. She started to talk to him casually.. Maan too did not refuse her friendship.. and they became friends.. Sam was over ambitious and was fond of roaming with friends and enjoy the life without any worry..
She was drug addict too but she hid this from everyone.. her all pocket money was spent on drugs. Her parents came to know about this addiction and they stopped to give her unlimited money..They started to give her a little amount only so that she is not able to buy the drugs any more and now she was dependent on her friends for other expenses.. She knew about Maan being the heir of Khurana Family so her focus was on him.. Those days Maan was a very simple boy .. sweet smiling and caring for his friends..he had a firm belief in his relations be it family or be it friends.. the word deceiving was not in his dictionary..
Sameera started to take the advantage of Maan's simplicity.. She every second day started to tell a fake story about her parents that they don't love her They only show to world that she was their heir of the heritage but in real she was the only medium of their luxury.. She also told him that she was not their real daughter.. she was adopted by them as they were the most trusted employees of their real parents and her real parents died in an accident.. They were the one who showed their fake love towards her in their presence and her parents and they made a bill in which her father appointed them as her guardian if something happened to them..and thus after their death they were her guardian and now were using her for their luxury,..They did not even give her sufficient money.. Maan believed what she said and he started to spend a part of his Pocket money on her.. but as days passed her expenditures were increasing and Maan did not know how to manage with his pocket money..
He once asked his parents to increase his Pocket money His father asked why he needed that so he honestly told him the truth..His father knew about Sam's parents .. He was shocked to hear that about Sam.. He told Maan that she was lying ,, Her present parents are her actual parents they are very disturbed by her habits.. her father had shared his problems with maan's father so he knew everything about her.. Maan was shocked to hear that .. next day he did not show any interest in Sam.. Sam tried to talk to him but he did not talk.. neither he said anything to her about her lie.. he was not the man who believed in insulting anyone.. Sam understood that Maan was not talking to her but she needed someone to take her responsibility.. She came to know another rich boy of the college -Karan...
Karan was a handsome boy too but he could not stand near Maan .. he was always left behind when he was compared with Maan.. He was jealous with Maan too for getting the friend like Sameera who was s##y and beautiful..
She started to be friend with him..Karan took the advantage of the situation became friend of her. One day Maan was in some restaurant with his one friend...he heard some voice from his back..It was Sameera..He heard her talking to karan..The same story which she told him about her parents but he was hell shocked when he heard her talking about him.
She was saying-I m very hurt karan..When I told my story to Maan he took advantage of me.. he took physical advantage too.. I was so help less when I said no to him,. He blackmailed me saying that he would tell everything to my parents and then they would throw me out of my own house I would get no place for shelter..and and I did what he asked me too.. I m really feeling myself useless..
And this revelation by Sam about himself left maan shocked to no extant. His fingers turned and made a fist,, His friend too heard everything and he knew Maan was not like that so he too became angry on listening that.. Maan got up from her seat and went to the table where Sam was sitting with karan with her head on his shoulder.. karan was patting her head to console,..He wanted to show her that he was his best friend from then onward..
Sam looks at Maan and her colors flew away from her face she stood swiftly but Maan was so much angry that he slapped her there only Karan tried to interfere but Maan showed him his finger and he atonce stepped back as Maan was not alone and he could not face them alone.. He knew that maan was more powerful than him..
Maan-You Wi####-.. The girls like you do not deserve any one to be friends with you.. You are just a shit who uses the rich boys for your own benefit. All the girls are like you.. Bloo## shi#. I don't even want to make my hands dirty by slapping you as i will have to touch you for that
He left with his friend,,and that day Maan made a rule that he wpould never come in the trap of beautiful girl..They are fake and take advantage of man by showing their innocence faces..
After finishing his studies he took charge of KC as MD ,, he wanted to not keep female employees at his office but his father did not agree with him.. He forced him to not to be biased with females,he could not say no to his father ..But he was now a strict boss .. He was not soft towards the female employees. He was always full of attitude when it came to female employees...he always tried to keep them away from him..
and one such day Geet joined the office as the architect..
But it was Maan's irony that he could not keep her away from her as he was the head of the project on which Geet too was working so they had to interact with each other..
GEET HANDA
Geet was from a small town named Hoshiyaar pur..In her town girls were not allowed to do higher studies but Geet fought with her family to go to higher studies.. Family denied but she went on hunger strike .. and she was firm too in her decision..Finally her family put it's weapons down and sent her for higher studies..She completed her architecture from Punjaab University..and she got the campus placement.. she got the job in Khurana Constructions Delhi.. It was a dream of many to work in KC.. and Geet was so happy..But her family was little hesitant to send her..as they had heard that bosses in big cities take the advantage of female employees.. Even Geet too had heard so many talks like this but she was not a girl who was scared of such things,,She was a punjabi girl who was well capable to handle such people.. she tried to convince her family but her family asked her to find a job in punjab only.. But Geet had a weapon for which she was sure that it would hit the bull shot.. Her hunger strike again forced family to send her to Delhi.. Her father had a friend in Delhi and he put a condition in front of Geet that she would live only there as PG.. Geet thought it better to accept his condition.. so she was here in Delhi to do her dream job.. luckily her father's friend;s daughter Pinki too was a working girl and co incidentally she too was working in KC as Receptionist.. Soon both girls clicked with each other and they were best friend now.. Geet was bold punjabi girl.. she never took any taunt or comment from any road side romeo.. she was always ready with her juties to beat them.. Soon every romeo of that lane and road knew about Geet and pinki's father too was so relaxed seeing the girls getting rid of those romeos.
Geet's joining formalities were done.. She had never met her boss who was going to head the project on which she was going to work.. He was MD of the company too..She had heard about him from Pinki.. Pinki was always on her praising sessions for the Boss and called him DD (DHAK DHAK).. She told her that he was the most handsome and dashing man of the city and Geet thought in her mind-Oh No.. that means he is a Casanova who tries to impress girls with his personality.. Geet be care ful..you are going to work under him..so he may think of you as his prey.. babaji bachchhi ki rakhsha karna uss DD (Dusht Danav) se..
Office
But they had to meet one day.. The day Geet met her Boss Maan Singh Khurana She was little scared .. She prayed to her babai to prove her wrong about whatever she thought about her boss in her heart.. but where was babaji going to listen to her? . Her boss had the ample amount of attitude and rudeness.. The way he saw her did not give her a good feeling. Though she found him quite handsome and she was impressed with his professional attitude but the way he talked to her, she did not like.. and thought in her mind-samajhte kya hai apne aap ko.. Hrithik Roshan? .. Huhh... akdu kahin ka.. aise baat karta hai koi apne staff se? and then she thought -kahin aisa to nahin ki mere upar impression maarne ke liye aise rudely baat kar rahe hain.. taki main ye samjhoon ki ye ladkiyon me interested nahin hain aur main in par bharosa karne lagun aur ek din mauka dekh kar mujhe apna shikaar bana le.. babajiii kripa banaaye rakhna mere upar apni.. bachana is Dust Danav se..
Soon Geet realize that he was a very rude boss.. he did not like if she gave him her ideas.. that made him more angry.. he often rejected her designs if she included anything from her own mind.. No matter it was in the favor of company and project..and she was not a girl who was there to bear his attitude..So she started to argue with him.. and this made Maan more irritated..
Once a client liked the designs made by Geet ,, He was very happy with her ideas..and Maan was surprised at that,.. and that changed his opinion about Geet and he gave a look finely to her designs those were actually good .. and after that day he stopped to reject her design but his attitude was not changed towards her as she was a girl..
But Geet was made of some different clay.. she did not learn to sit quite.. Though she did not talk to him directly .. but she did not sit quietly in meetings.. she used to talk to other employees in whispers and sometime they responded to her by giving a laugh to her..
At first maan was hell irritated with her.. he was always in a roaring mood whenever she created any disturbance in meeting and every time Geet made a face whenever he was not looking at her.. But as time passed she became famous between his clients for her unique ideas.and Maan stopped to yell at her.. Her antics had started to melt the iron man Maan singh khurana..and some times he too smiled inwardly whenever she was up to something.. but never showed it to any one..He did not want to spoil his image in his employees' eyes.. his POV about girl did not change yet but he could not keep that hatred for Geet now..he pretended to be busy jn work but his ears were on her taloks and he was now not able to stop himself from smiling on her stupid acts and had started to talk to her in a good manner..
And one day something happened ..
Maan was sitting in his office..whole staff had gone back to home after office hrs.. One big client called him and he received his call-Mr,. Khurana I m leaving for USA tomorrow for a month.. My brother has met with an accident.. I will not be able for full month so I wanted our meeting to be scheduled early.. In fact I want it tomorrow morning .. Be ready with the designs..
Maan was shocked-What? But Mr. Mehra designs are not ready .. as we will be having the meeting next week..Howe can it be possible..
Mr. Mehra-I know Mr. Khuran..But I m helpless please do something or our project will be late and that will be a major loss to both of us.. you have full night.. it's just a matter of one night..
And he hang the call..
Maan was in a fix.. he would need Geet as she was working on those designs it was not possible for him to do that alone..
But his male mind started to ask the question-But How can I call her..It's night..may be she is sincere but I m not comfortable.. waise bhi use dekh kar ab mera dil aur dimag mera kahna maanne se inkaar kar dete hain.. I try my best to not look at her but I can't stop myself..what if I do something with her which spoils my image in front of her.. and what if she too takes the advantage of that situation like Sam did years ago.After all she is a girl too.. It's night and it will not be good to be with a girl..
But his all the logic were in vein when the emergency was standing on the door.. at last he called her..
Geet picked up the land line of Pinki's house at it was the no which was mentioned in her CV.. Thankfully she only picked up the phone-Hello..
Maan-Geet..
Geet was shocked to hear her name-kaun hai aur tumhen mera naam kaise pata? Kya chhate ho itni raat ko?..dekho aisi waisi ladki mat samajhna mujhe..
Maan-Geeettt.. Maan here..
Geet was shocked-Maan Sir??,..I I m sorry sir.. I though some road romeo was on the phone..
Maan-What? Shut up
And Geet zipped her mouth-Sorry sir
Maan-Geet I need you at office..It's urgent..
And Geet's eyes got wider-Jiii ? Iss waqt?K,,kya kam hai sir..office hrs are over.
Maan-I need you in some work..It's urgent aur ye apna question answer round office aa kar khelna ,, I don't have time.. I m in hurry..jaldi karo.. and he put the phone..
Geet ears could not believe,.,Finally the day had come about which she had heard,.. Her boss was calling her at office that too at this time of night.. Geet aaj teri izzat daav par lagne walii hai.. Maan sir apne boss wale avatar ma aa gaye aaj wo pakka tujhe blackmail karke tere saath kuchh karne wale hai..kahin nashe me to nahin hai wo.babaji sharaab pee kar to insaan waise bhi insaan nahin rahta Jaanwar ban jata hai. nahin nahin I wont go.. I will resign.. then she thought -Kya hoga resign karne se? New job search karegi. new boss bhi to aise hi hoga na..kab tak darti rahegi...Geet paani me utarna hai to magarmachchhon se to saamna karna hi padega.. Be brave.. dikha de tu aaj uss Maan singh Khurana ko ki tu kya cheeje hai..
She went into the kitchen.. Took a knife and some chili powder and kept that in some paper and tied it .she put those things in her bag. A pepper spray was already in her bag.. she checked that by pushing it's cap..It was working.. she was now satisfied.. Pinky saw him and asked-Geet kya kar rahi hai?
Geet-Pinky tujhe pata hai Maan sir ne mujhe office me bulaya hai itni raat ko?
Pinki-To?
Geet-arrey Pinki tu nahin jaanti .. maine bahut suna hai ki boss female employees ka galat fayda uthaate hain unko black mail karte hai.. aaj mera no aa gaya
Pikni -Kya bakwaas karr ahi hai Geet? DD aise nahin hain..
Geet-Haan haan mujhe pata hai..Tere liye tere DD aise nahin hai.. Tujhe kabhi raat me buklaya hai unhone? Nahin na? tu to din me jaati hai.. to din me kya kar lenge wo.. mujhe to raat me bulaya hai ..par main bhi itni darponk nahin hoon..eint ka jawaab patthar se dena aata hai mujhe..Tu chinta mat kar .. aaj maza chakha kar aaungi main Uss Maan singh khurana ko''
Saying this she left from there to go to the office..
She reached the office and found all the office in dark.. only one side of the office was shining with light..
She went there ..It was Maan's cabin.. he was waiting for her.. She knocked at the door.
Maan saw her and said-Geet come to the design room.. we will work there..
Saying this he moved towards design room...and Geet's face was full of horror. She thought -Design room? Wahaan to koi nahin aata aur wahaan phone me signals bhi nahin aate.. kya karungi main agar kisi ki zaroorat padi to?
Maan felt that Geet was not following him..he stopped and asked -Kya hua? Why did you stop?
Geet-Sssir Is it possible that we work here only.?.
Maan-Geet we can't do here .. our work requires a little big space.. chhoti si jagah me hum dono ek saath nahin aa paayenge na..
And Geet's mouth was big open..What he was talking ? what did he mean by hum dono ek chhoti si jagah me nahin aa paayenge
Maan -Aise kya dekh rahi ho? Jaldi karo time bahut kam hai.. agar yahin khade rahna hai to ghar jaao aur permanently wahin baitho..
Now Geet was sure that he was up to something..But she put a brave face and followed him to the design room.

Maan entered the room and started to take his waist coat out as it was body fitted and he was not comfortable in that while bending on the table
Geet saw him opening the jacket and said-Ssir.. d..dekhiye main aisi waisi ladki nahin hoon..Aap jo soch rahe hain waisa main kuchh nahin karne wali..
Maan's hand stopped-what? What rubbish.. what did you think? Why I have called you here.?.and he got the meaning of her words- tum ye sochti ho mere bare me.?. tumhen kya lagta hai kit um itni khoobsoorat ho ki tumhen dekh kar main khud ko kabu nahin kar pa raha..
And Geet tought-pakde gaye to bahana bana rahe hain and she got angry-I don't think that about myself sir.. but I have some self respect.. ab raat ko aapne mujhe yahaan bulaya to aur kya sochungi main.. aur haanagar aap itne sachhe hain to thoda door hi rahiye mujhse aur Kaam bataaiye ki kyun bulaya hai.. She was little relieved that she wa shaving all the safety instruments with her so in case of emergency she could use them..so she behaved like a bold girl..
Maan angrly looked at her and said-Mujhe bhi koi shauk nahin hai tumhaare paas aane ka .. something was urgent issiliye bulaya..Mr. Mehra want his designs ready by morning as he is goinmg abroad for one month..
Geet-Okk and saying this she started to work on the designs..But it was not a good day for both of them.. how much they were trying get rid from each other but the situation did not allow them to do so.they worked for two hrs without talking to each other. suddenly wind storm started and the door of the room closed with a bang..
Maan looked at it and said-Bas yahi hona baki tha..
Geet-K..Kya hua sir?
Maan-This lock is not working now it's closed and will not be opened from inside..
Geet-Kya ?
And she thought in her mind-kaise natak kar rahe hain ..ye sab jaan boojh kar kiya inhone sab planning hai inki.. and one more incident happened.. the light went off.. they were in dark now..
Maan-Not again.. aaj kiska face dekha tha subah ?
Geet-Sirr apna hi dekha hoga aapna ab aur koi to rah hi nahin sakta na aapke room me aapke saath.. she said as if she was mocking him..
Maan was hell irritated now-Geeettt can't you sit quietly?
Geet-quitely baithne se light thode hi aa jaayegi..Generator on karne ko boliye na..
Maan-Kisko bolun.. Yahaan se kaun sunega? aur generator kharaab hai
Geet in her heart -khadoos... sab plan karke rakha hai ki koi aa na paaye yahaan..generator bhi kharaab karwa diya.. but main bhi Geet hoon Geet handa ,, you can not be successful in trapping me Maan sungh Khurana.. just touch me and you will find a sherni in front of you thinking this she patted her bag to feel everything there..
Geet said-I will try to call any one and she went near window and shouted loudly..Ram singh.. Bahadur.Sher Singh..
Maan -Tumhen naam pata hain sabke..
Geet-Guards ke naam aise hi hote hai koi na koi to hoga in me se ek naam ka
And Maan was looking at her with open mouth and thought -Kya ladki hai.. bhagwaan ne bas ek hi namoona banaya aur dye tod di .. waise bhi ek hi bahut hai dimag khraab karne ke liye.do chaar aur hoti to pata nahin duniya ka kya hota
But instead of getting any answer they heard some one playing the FM radio and the song started which forced them to look at each other with big eyes..
Baahar se koi andar na aa sake
Andar se koi baahar na jaa sake
Socho kabhi aisa ho to kya ho - 2
Hum tum ek kamre mein band ho, aur chaabi kho jaaye
Geet got scared and took few steps back-Babaji aaj to main gayi kya planning ki hai Maan sir ne aur dekho mausam bhi saath de raha hai inka.. kaisa gaana bajaane ko bola guards ko
Baahar se koi andar na aa sake
Andar se koi baahar na jaa sake
Socho kabhi aisa ho to kya ho - 2
Hum tum ek kamre mein band ho, aur chaabi kho jaaye
Maan too was looking at Geet with horrified eyes-Oh God ye aaj kya ho raha hai kuchh bhi theek nahin jar aha mere saath..ek to ye ladki mere saath ahi upar se ye light bhi chali gayi aur ab bas iss gaane ki hi kami thi..
Maan took a candle out and fixed it at the table.
Geet-Oh God... candle bhi hai..perfect planning.. she came forward and said-main jalaati hoon sir.. and she lit the candle but in that effort she touched the flame and felt a burning sensation . She jerked her hand and Maan saw that and held her hand and put that press that finger in his hand..

Both eyes met and they heard next set of lines
Tere nainon ki bhoolbhulaiya mein bobby kho jaaye
Hum tum ek kamre mein band ho, aur chaabi kho jaaye
She hurriedly snatched her hand from his and Geet chanted Babaji's name in her heart- bas aaj bacha lena babaji.. aaj ke baad aap se jhagda nahin akrungi Pakka promise..
Aage ho ghanghor andhera
Baba mujhe darr lagta hai

Geet started to pace in the room feeling scared and in this effort she bumped in maan..but she hurriedly moved backward but felt a tug on her dupatta..

she looked there and found Maan holding her dupatta on the table.. geet looked at him with big eyes and maan seeing her like that removed his hand from the table which was co incidentally was on her dupatta too..

Peechhe koi daaku lootera
Hm, kyoon darra rahe ho
Geet in her heart -sach me aaj mujhe lagta hai main kisi lutere ke saath hoon..
Aage ho ghanghor andhera
Peechhe koi daaku lootera
Upar bhi jaana ho mushkil
Neeche bhi aana ho mushkil
Socho kabhi aisa ho to kya ho - 2
Hum tum kahin ko jaa rahe ho, aur rasta bhool jaaye
O ho
Maan was now hell irritated with everything.. there were so many things which wer making him irritate and angry.. Most irritating was Geet.. and then darkness.and locked room..He parayed in his heart-bas ye raat nikal jaaye aur designs ban jaayen .. I swear ki main kabhi kisi ladki ko raat me kaam karne ke liye nahin bulaaunga..
Hum tum kahin ko jaa rahe ho, aur rasta bhool jaaye
Hum tum ek kamre mein band ho, aur chaabi kho jaaye
Teri baiyaan ke jhoole mein saiyaan bobby jhool jaaye
Thinking this he moved towards the window and shut that with a thud and the song was not very clear now..Maan was relieved now.He sat on the chair as there was no use of walking here and there as it will create some mess between them only..
Geet saw him sitting on the chair and after few moment he closed his eyes... Geet looked at him care fully.. but he was not moving his eyes.. Geet took a breath of relief and sat on the sofa .. But tried to not to sleep-Geet sona nahin kya pata tu so jaaye aur ye DD jag jaaye sote hue to tu kuchh anhin kar paayegi an to bas babaji ka naam le aur jaagti rah..she was looking at Maan who was sleeping on the chair but tiredness took over her and she too slept on the sofa..
Maan's eyes opened with the light.. He looked here and there.. and found geet on the sofa she was shivering due to the low temp of AC.. Maan increased the tempreture and thought to wake her up but he changed his decision as he had to togch her to wake her for work but he did not want to hear one more accusation on him from a girl.. But he covered her with her waist coat and got busy in work.. only final touches were left so he did that..
Geet's eyes opened sometime later and he found that she had slept even after lot of effort to stay awake,.. she saw herself covered with Maan's waist coat and she looked for him.. She found him busy in work.. a guilt spread in her heart for thinking that bad bout him.. He was not that bad..A smile full of guilt came on her lips..
She came near him and coughed a little.. Maan looked at her and said-I hope you have found yourself all safe..
Geet-Wo i.. I m sorry sir.. actually I was scared as I have read in news papers about the bosses.. so I thought the same about you too.. I m really sorry.. You are not like them..
Maan smiled at this.. he too found Geet a girl with a simple heart.. who was hell worried for her own respect as he had called her at night but how easily se asked for a sorry from him,.. He thought that he was wrong about girls.. every girl is not sameera.. there are many girls who have self respect and have a good heart too..
Both looked at each other with a true smile.. Their heart were free of some myths today.. Everyone in the world is not same.. Everyone is not bad.. there many people who are good and selfless..
And Geet initiated for something-Maan Sir! Can we be friends?
Maan looked at her for a moment .. Geet waited for him but seeing him unmoved she took har hand back but she felt Maan's hand in her.. she looked at her hand and found him holding her hand-Yes Geet we are friends now..
and now both were smiling looking at each otther with their hands in each other's..The dark night brought a bright light in their hearts for ever
