PART 30

Maan came back to his room angry at himself..

He thumped on sofa..and groaned in anger..

" oyee sadu khurana..itne gusse mai kyu ho?" shilpi poked his shoulder..

" tu kaha se ayi??' he replied gaping her wide eyed.. he didn't see her when he came inside..

" yeh humara ghar hai msk hum jaha chahe jab chahe jaa sakte hai ..." she spoke proudly and maan rolled his eyes ..

" anyway chuck this..yeh lo help me..." she handed him karwachaut thal.. Maan raised his brows and stared the plate...

" ghooro mat chalo..put the things I ask u to put...get up..chaloo..." she ordered him..while getting up from the sofa..

" are u nuts why will I help u...go ask someone else.." he said annoyingly..

"maaan..." Shilpa..grunted and extended her palms..before him..

" dekhooo..." she yelled making maan infuriated and he looked at her palms..he squeezed his eyes in frustration she had applied mehndi on her both palms..

" dekha.. I cant do on my own..plz help me..baki sab busy hai.." she made a cute puppy dog face..

" fine..." He muttered.. knowing very well it was not possible to say no to shilpi...she will eat his brains...

Shilpa smiled...as she made maan arrange the thal..

" its not for me maan.. Its for ur wife.. though I wished u could break her fast... and I still hope maybe u will... but if..not then yehi sahi.. I wont let her fast go in vain "

Geet was wearing the red sari.. RK had gifted her.. Today she missed him a lot...

He was her father first and then her father in law..

She sniffed recollecting her pre wedding rituals... how lovingly he used to compliment..her..

She sat in front of mirror. Caressing the sari with tears in her eyes...

" sir... nai..." she smiled... wiping her tears..

" dad aapko mishty aapko bohot miss karti hai " she said in a teary voice..

" geeet.." shilpa called her...

Geet composed herself..and..opened the door..

" hey geet...will u help me in wearing sari...please..." Shilpa..said cutely...

Geet smiled..pushed her glasses back...and nodded...

*****

Maan retired to his room after assuring himself of proper decorations...on terrace. He moved to his room...and went in for hot shower..

Vihang and others had already left upstairs for..karwachaut function.

After maan got ready...he smiled... faintly looking himself in mirror...

He was wearing n black n bronze coloured shervani.

As he stepped back and was about to leave when... The lights went off...

" what the..." he groaned...

It was pitch dark... so he began searching for candles..frustrated over the turn of events...

" thank god for the candles... " he said. Lilting one

He held the candle stand...and walked out of his room..

" thank god... terrace pe..sare arrangements hai.." he mentally patted his back for such appropriate preparations ..

He heard...a sharp noise...While striding upstairs..

" sab toh upar ahi..phir...yeh awaz kaisi..hai..." he thought...and decided to check himself...

He flipped around and began marching towards the... source of sound he heard...

He halted in front of geet's room.. it was quite dark and he didn't pay attention to where he was going..

He held the doorknob nd opened...it..

He held the candle in his hand...and walked inside... . He could see a lady dressed in red sari...

As soon he stepped ahead...she flipped...around... Making him stunned..

His finger held the candle..more tightly..as he now gazed the beauty in front of him...

He blinked twice...trying to take in the goddess of beauty , his wife... who was looking soo alluring in red shimmering sari.

She lowered her eyes...when she felt him going stiff...

It was first time ever..he felt attracted to his own wife.. in literal sense.. The Coset blouse she wore..gave him enough view of her slender neck.. Her lips quivering... and eyes.. oh.. they simply whirled him in a different world of fantasy.. Her curly hairs were open and they were straighten . Today when he gazed her ever so passionately ...he so much wanted her to look up to him... She hadn't wore her glasses .

Geet after getting shilpi ready...was about to leave.. when shilpi requested her to try lens.. just for today's function..

Geet stepped back...and clasped her sari end tightly when Maan stepped forward..towards her..

Her heart was beating wildly so was his...

She closed her eyes..tightly... when her back..hit the wall..and maan reached close to her..

He held the candle near her face...to glimpse her...clearly.. he smiled... she appeared his today in all means... He thought recollecting shilpi's words..

Today he felt her glow was radiating more that the candle...

He leaned closer...very close to her..making her tremble

" chasmish.. you are looking gorgeous..." He said huskily... with closed eyes... his nose...touched her cheek...relishing the softness of her skin..

Geet...framed herself...more Trying not to respond his touch.. She did not feel his touch.. she felt disgusted... She flinched at his every touch...

Maan opened his eyes...and rolled his finger in her curly hairs and tucked..them behind.. He felt contented to have her with him... He was continuously gazing her... Without blinking his eyes..thats when his eyes..fell on her forehead...

His forehead creased a little... And he rubbed his finger...on her forehead...

She clutched herself..tightly...and squeezed her eyes .

He shook his head... " she forgot to apply sindoor...' he extended his hands...and reached for sindoor...

" u forgot this...chasmish..." his voice swaying with seduction...

Her eyes snapped opened...and she looked at him in confusion... Her eyes widened when she spotted sindoor box in his hand...

This wasn't right... They share no martial relations inspite of being married.. and with maan's pov she wasn't even his...wife... and thus he had no right to do this..

" nhi.." she whimpered... .with tears pooling her eyes...Her voice was...shivering. And it came out as gasp... In his state it was next to impossible..to hear ..her

His heart was beating out loud..wanting him to mark her his...which completely made him oblivious to her..condition...

He raised his hand...and held it near her forehead... Before he could..fill her mang... She clasped his hand...and uttered shaking her head.." nooo...noo..."

Maan furrowed his brows...and moved his gazed downwards... to meet hers..

The lights came on...

He was taken aback finding her eyes full of remorse...and repulsion...

" bas...dont..do this...bas..." she sobbed...and slid on the floor...The candle fell from his hands..

" chasmish...mai...mai..".. he was shocked... he kneeled on the floor..and trying to touch...her.. this time she responded...and shrugged his hands...

" don't..touch me..sir...please..just don't..." she clenched her eyes...and cried..

" chasmish..." He was soo stunned...to see her like..this...

Geet raised her eyes and glimpsed maan with hatread in her eyes... " Kis haq se aap mujhe...sindooorr...laga rahe the..Sir.."

Her voice dint quiver... she was steady and firm..

"kya...mai... I..m ur..."

" Boss... " she completed his sentence... Which was a tight slap on his face.. she threw his words on his face..

His face lost his colours...and he looked at her in pain..

" mana ki mai aapki secretary hu.. aur aap mujh se nafrat karte ho...lekin koi kisi ko dard dene k liye is had tak jaa sakta hai.. yeh mujhe nai pata tha..." she spat...

It was her pain and anguish which was speaking.. the suffocation she felt near him..these days..

" dard...chasmish..tum yeh kya..kar rai ho..mai toh sirf..."

" bas sir... bas ... " She raised her hand..

" mujeh takleef dene k liye aap yeh sab kar rahe hai na...kariye.. Mai sab sehlungi.. But aab.. shaddi jaise pavitra bandhan ka Mazak udane ka koi haq nai hai aapko...koi haq nai hai..."

" listen u r getting it all wrong... " he clasped her shoulders " tumne sindoor nai lagaya tha..and I knw iske bina... ur fast wouldn't have been complete...isliyee mai... I knw tumne fast mere liye..'

She shook his hands.. furiously ..

" aapke liye??? U think maine yeh fast aapke liye rakha hai..."

She stood to her feet " u r wrong.. Maan sir.. Maine yeh fast aap k liye nai rakhaaa..." She screamed...

Maan got up fuming and...pushed her to wall... he did not like the way she spoke to him.. he knew he was right..

" don't lie chasmish "

" I m not lying..." She looked him in the eye and spoke.. " I kept this fast..as a bahu of Khurana family.. Not for u..." she yapped...

" aap...aap..ko yeh kyu laga ki I will fast for u..." she roared...

Maan loosened his hold... He was speechless..

" chasmishhh i..m ur...yeh mere..liye..i..i" he fumbled...and then looked away..

" yaa.. i..m ur... " she chuckled...painfully.. " u cant even say that right?"

" maan sir I m tired... I.. I cant be ur toy girl..everytime... I m a human being.. Mujhe bhi dard hota hai...pleaseee...bas ki jiye ab... stop this...I beg of u.."
she joined her hands...whimpering..

More than her words...her tears pricked his heart... he did not knw.. what to say.. he was mumed..because everything she said was right... he never thought from her side... it was his mistake...a big fault

" aap hi chahate the ki..humare beech koi rishta na ho...phir aap..mujh se dosti kyu karna chahte hai.. kyu chahte hai ki mai aapke liye fast rakhu... Kyu mere aas paas rehte hai...kyuuu" She shut her eyes and screeched..

Sometimes...when you can have your love.. is less painfully then having him close to you, around you all the time..

" chamish...please stop crying..." his voice was low... He wanted to hold her...Hug her.. But he did not have the guts to step forward.. the great maan singh khurana felt so small today...

Geet opened her eyes..and mocked at him

" Why sir.. aren't u enjoying... u always wanted me to cry.. dint u.. Phir meri parwah kyu? Bhul gaye... I m filth.. "

Maan flinched at her words... Today he hated himself...for have treated chasmish..this way.. His behavior was inhuman.. He deserved this..

His heart was burning in pain..

" i.. i..m money sucking...bitch..remember... i..m"

That's it he couldn't take..those words against her... he grasped her and pushed her to wall..

" shhhsss stop it" he placed his palm over her lips...and closed his eyes..

Geet held his hand and removed it slowly...

" kyuu maan sir..yeh parwa...mere liye..kaha se..ayi... bolo"

Maan cringed his eyes.. he was at loss of words... he himself.. wasn't aware why he couldn't take those words ..she was saying... those feelings he felt for her.. he couldn't describe it..

" mai...I m sorry...geet "that was all he could say and then pressed his lips over her forehead..

" kyuuu sir... kyuu " she mumbled before...she passed out...

"geeettt" Maan grasped her and patted her cheek... " chasmish..chasmish..open ur eyes..open ur eyes " his voice was tensed...He picked her up in his arms..and laid her bed..

She was...wincing in pain... Her outburst made her soo weak that her body couldn't take it..

Maan brushed her forehead..and cupped her cheek.. " chasmish..open ur eyes.. I m sorry please open ur eyes..." His eyes where shinning with tears...

He looked around her room... to find glass of water...

His eyes fell on geet's karwaCahut thal..

*flashback*

" geet I m ready.. tum bhi ready ho kar upar aa jao.. okay..and maine tumhari thal table par rakh di hai..." shilpi said..

" okay shilpi.." geet replied from washroom

" tumhari special thal..prepared by sadu singh khurana himself.." she giggled and left the room...

*Flashback ends*

Maan held the glass of water. With one hand..and supported geet through the other..

" sambhal kar chamish..." he raised her..and made bought the glass of water near her lips...

Geet s vision was blurry...she couldn't see clearly..

" drink this...chasmish " And maan helped her sip the water...

She closed her eyes...and tears flee down her cheek.. She could feel him.. She wanted to resist But her body was very tired...

She opened her eyes...a little after gulping down the water...

" babaajiii..mera vrat..." She clenched her eyes...

Maan kept the glass of water... and leaned in to wipe the droplets on her lips... He was her closed eyes...and recoiled his hands back... He couldn't hurt her more...

Out of the blue...there was sudden noise of window panel.. they were thudding making a loud noise...

Geet opened her eyes... and both of them..looked in that direction..

The illuminating moonshine fell on their faces... In a way completing her karwa chaut..

Geet sighed...and dropped her eyes..closed... Maan held her body softly and made her lie down on bed...

He stayed there holding her hand in his...just staring her...

His tear fell on their hands...

Maan singh Khurana was always proud of what he did in his life... he was a person who was sure of things..

But he had made the biggest mistake of..accusing a innocent soul like geet for something she wouldn't even think..

He may be couldn't name the feeling, the emotions he felt for her.. But one thing he knew that she was genuine..

Today her outburst made him realize many things about him, her, their relation..which was unknown to him...

He wiped his tear..when he heard a knock..

" arey maan tum yaha..." Shilpi said entering her room.. She returned to her room to find geet.. the whole function was almost over... But there was no sign of maaneet

" who.. geet isn't well..isliye...who function.."

" Omgg kya hua geet ko thats over don't worry...tum jao..kha lo..kuch.. ill stay with her..." She immediately reached beside geet and began caressing her forehead..

Maan nodded.. and stood to leave... He looked at their joint hands...and then shilpi..who pretended..not to look at him..

Slowly he withdrew. His hands...gave a last look to geet and moved outside..
