SS - Redeeming Love : Complete - Page 83

Sona hain. Geet smiled but she did not raise her head and continued to pat Aadhaan to sleep as he was fussing a lot tonight. They had been back from their holiday and the kids still continued with the same passion and would get themselves very much tired making Geet work more but she enjoyed doing little things for her triplets. She had missed a year of their life but now she only promised tat she would not stay a second away from them. Jaan.. sona hain.

Tho sojaye na Maan. She looked at him and smiled. Aaj aapke bache so nahi rahe hain and I don't think...

No you put me to sleep or I'll stay awake all night. He threatened her.

Maan..

Dadda no baby Mom. Aadhaan murmured slowly peeking from his soft duvet. Dadda big boy and Mom only put sleep small boy no big boy. Geet giggled but Maan glared and fussed about wat his son said. And big boy no cry baby ok.

He's not mine Jaan. Geet continued laughing. Aadhaan always loved needling Maan and their son knew which points to use to irritate his Dadda. Seriously every night he teases me.

Tho aap bacho ki tarah behave kyu karte hain? She asked. Chalo, come to bed and sleep.

I want to sleep next to you and tats final. He glared at Aadhaan who moved closer to Geet and wrapped his tiny hands around her. Jaan.. usko..

Maan..

Naa..

Aadhaan. Geet finally gave up. She knew her husband was worse than their kids and he would not agree to anythings he say. Let Dadda sleep next to me..

But I..

You sleep on Dadda's tummy. Aadhaan grinned. He loved sleeping like tat and tonight he would have all the time to snuggle more into his Dadda then any of his siblings. Chaliye.. aajaye yaha. Maan grinned and jumped into the bed but Geet glared warning him of their Armaan and Maansi who were sleeping. They had a big king size bed specially made for all five to fit in.

I love you. He settled himself closer to her and pulled Aadhaan on his chest and started to pat him to sleep. He murmured sweet nothings and soon he was fast asleep and slowly settled him on the bed and rested his head on Geet's chest who continued to brush his hair. I..

It was just a fall Maan. Geet knew he was about to say. Slip hogayi thi main. Maansi sun nahi rahi thi so I had to pick her up and I just did not see the water on the floor..kuch nahi hua hume. Geet tried to assure him.

But ho jata tho. He turned and wrapped his arm around her waist and pulled her closer. I still fear to lose you.. pata hain kal sapne mein I saw tat someone taking you and the kids away from me.. maine na.. I tried to pull the door open but it was tight and I just could not hear you and the babies.. pata hain main kitna darr gaya tha.

We'll see Dr. Sareen again.

Kyu.. main theek hoon abhi... I can also sleep na.. kuch nahi hua mujhe.. woh tho sirf ek sapna tha Jaan.

Then why are you so scared haan and why is tat you asked me to put you to sleep? Maan looked sad and hid his face into her Maan tat was our past and everything is good now..kuch nahi hoga.. hum sab ek hain ok.

Yeah but I don't like them anywhere near my babies.. pata hain I feel tat they..

Maan..

Ok ok.. I won't say a word but you make sure they don't spend more time with our babies ok... you know na I don't trust them. Geet closed her eyes. Years had passed but she could not get Maan to forgive his parents and though they stayed together there was this distance between them. Now put me to sleep... I don't want to have another bad dream tonight. Geet smiled but a pain hit her heart. Her Maan, he was changed and she realized it for the first time when she saw his eyes just after they took the pheras and something had told her tat there was yet another storm in her life but she did not shatter coz now it was her time to get Maan out of whatever he was.

Geet...

Nahi.. you have to go to office Maan tomorrow and I swear I'll not hear anything more you say. It was 15 days after their wedding and Maan hadn't left her for a second but she just thought tat it was his love and fear. Do you hear me?

But mujhe nahi jana.. wat if this is all a dream and you leave me and go. And Geet stilled. This was the first time he said something about his fear. You know I still don't feel...

Maan. Geet studied him for a second and then she asked him the question tat had troubled her for so many days. Why did you ask me to sign those papers? Wat were you planning to do Maan?

Kuch nahi. He smiled but Geet had enough. She had given enough time and now she wanted answers to her question coz those eyes, tat pain she could not forget. Don't look at me like tat please.

Then tell me wat you had planned to do? She asked coz somewhere she knew by now and today his fear, the pain in his eyes confirmed her doubts but she wanted to hear it from him. Tell me Maan... why did you say tat it was I who had to decide for us?

Coz I thought you would come back to me. She stumbled and fell on the bed. I thought tat you would understand me and come back but then you didn't and day by day I could only think tat you were punishing me for killing our baby.

Maan.. Geet cried.

Na... I know I did not but my mind forced me to think tat I killed our baby and you were punishing me but still my heart knew you would come back but when you did not I know tat you really wanted me to be happy.. I did not listen to my mind and I argued saying tat my Jaan would never punish me coz she loved me and she was giving pain to herself my letting me go from her but how could I be happy when you would leave Vicky once I get married and have a baby.

You knew it. Maan smiled a bit. How did you come to know tat?

Your eyes are enough Jaan. Geet closed her eyes. Yes, once I failed to see the truth but tumare Maan ne ish sachayi ko padh liye tha tumari aanhkho mein. I knew you would not stay married to Vicky so I drew those papers thinking tat you would be forced to stay with Vicky for lifelong but I wouldn't have married to Ria. Maine Ria se keh diya tha Jaan... I had told her tat I would die then marry her and she agreed. She said tat she would never come into a marriage where her husband loved his first wife and give her nothing.

Tho aap kya karne wale the.

Kill myself. Geet's heart just stopped. Tears trickled down as if they had no place in her eyes. Yes... I had to kill myself coz tumare bina tho zindagi jee nahi saktha tha na.. how could I live a life where there was no Jaan for me.. ek saal se soya nahi tha and I was tired fighting myself.. I wanted a deep sleep Jaan and I still want one.. kabhi kabhi darr lagtha hain ki yeh sab ek sapna hain and I would be all alone waiting for my death.

How could you Maan? You promised me to marry Ria but you. Geet asked crying. You were to break my trust in you once again na.

I was just keeping my love safe Jaan. Tears blurred his vision. Mom-Dad ko pyar kiya but wat I got in return... I loved Pari but wat she gave me back.. I felt tat whoever I loved would just not love me back or leave me... tum bhi tho wahi kar rahi thi.. mujhe akele chodke jane wali thi na.. sab tho khatam ho juka tha and my heart wasn't able to take more pain Jaan.. it was tired and wanted to rest so my soul.. aur maut hi mujhe sola sakthi thi na.

How could you Maan? How could you?

Mujhe sona hain abhi. He wiped his tears like a kid and settled himself in her lap. Neendh aa rahi hain.. put me to sleep Jaan. She did not know wat to do and just brushed his hair. She was angry but after some time she realized wat his words meant all her anger vanished and she smiled but tat very moment she felt his grip tighten on her hand and it was hurting. She did not know wat was happening but then suddenly she saw him all shaking and shivering and next his eyes were wide and just staring at her. His eyes were dead and anyone looking into them would get scared but she didn't fear coz she was in love with those eyes but she knew there was something wrong in them.

Maan..

Tum tho... you aren't married to Vicky na Jaan.. tum sirf meri ho na.. meri ho na Jaan.

Maan. She cupped her face as he sat and stared at her. Main yahi hoon.. aapke paas.

But they said you married to Vicky.. pata hain they were laughing at me... all were.

Maan... no one was laughing.. see there's no one.

Nahi hain na... they..

Maan. She pulled his lips into hers and kissed him. She knew tat there was something wrong for sure coz ever since they had married she could see the fear and this uncertainty in him when she would ask him to sleep but he used to hold her tight and just close eyes. First she thought it was coz he wanted to hold together but today she realized it was beyond tat as he was afraid of sleep. There's no one baba.. chalo hum so jaate hain ok. She said after breaking the kiss.

You'll hold me and sleep na.. mujhe na neendh nahi aati ok. She smiled and asked him to settle on his place and then she pulled him into her arms and kept talking to him.

I'll always hold you Maan.. I will always hold you.

Pata hain I'm so cared of sleep Jaan.. aisa lagtha hain tat I'm being pulled into darkness.. so I fear to close my eyes but if you hold me na Jaan...I'll sleep ok.

Will you.

Haan. He smiled looking at her. Your warmth gives me peace.. it feels like a mother soothing his baby aur tum tho meri angel ho na so angel ki pyari se neendh dedo mujhe na Jaan. She was filled with emotions. She just could not hold herself but she did not cry. My angel is the best and now I have her... you'll stay na.

Aapki angel aur Jaan humesha aapke saath hogi ab Maan. He nodded and slowly closed his eyes holding her tight. She kept talking about their life and wat they did on their honeymoon but her brain was working on his fear and she knew she had to put this past behind him or she would lose Maan.

A tear rolled down her eyes as she remembered those painful days but she did not waste time. She simply asked Maan to meet Dr. Sareen and he agreed and Dr. Sareen informed them tat he was quite stressed and the pain he had gone through was affecting him and it took almost 4 months for them to get him out of his fear and assure him tat she would not leave him. It was tough time but they fought together and getting him to sleep was the biggest task but she used to put him to sleep like a baby and still sometimes she did. She even smiled more as she remembered how Ria visited them one day when she was pregnant and gave her socks back saying tat it always belonged to Geet and now Ria was married to her best friend who had been secretly loving her.

Maan..

Haan.

You aren't sleeping. Maan slowly raised his head and grinned at her. Aap... you na.. bache se bhi naughty ho.

When my Jaan grew up I thought I should be a baby... balance hona chahiya na Jaan. Geet glared. She had truly grown up but there was still innocence in her. Waise how about we see Dr. Sareen as you suggested.

Nahi dekhna hain hain mujhe. Geet glared. She knew he was joking. Aap theek ho juke hain and stop pulling my legs warna I will wake up Aadhaan and tell him tat you were kissing his Mom.

Tum sach mein buri ho Jaan. He complained. But I still love you.

Acha then how about you give me few days to stay at HH with the kids. Maan narrowed his eyes. Maa aur Papa keh rahe the ki I should take few days off before the kids start their school again.

I'll lock you up.

Maan this is not fair.. ok.. I need some time na aur aap kuch dino baad Canada jaa rahe hain conference ke liye. Geet pouted complaining. So I would like..

Kisne kaha main Canada jaa raha hoon. He flipped over her and trapped her under his huge body. Bolo who said?

Dad bol rahe the...

And you..

I overheard him telling Mom ok. Maan pressed her down. He was very upset saying tat...

I don't want to hear and m not going to Canada.. main Adi ko bhej raha hoon. He smiled seeing her stare at him. Jaan bacho ka school start hone wala hain and I have to do so much of shopping for them.. nayi car bhi tho leni hain unke liye.

No you won't. She tried pushing him but he pinned her down. When they started school for the first time you got a new car but not now ok... We should...

I know money and power is not everything. Geet closed her eyes. But Jaan this is my love and I also know to keep them in line.. they are our babies Jaan and they understand wat love and togetherness is... I'm proud of them and they will never ever make feel bad for them... pata hain na..

Haan as their Dadda loves them so much tat he would even bring the stars down.

Should I? Geet smirked. Bolo na should I get the stars down for my angels..

Ab angels kaha se.. ek hi angel thi na.

Thi nahi hain but another three angles joined by first angel.. so you see I have 4 angels to protect and love me. Geet pecked his lips. Waise I was thinking about... you know a new mansion for us.. just..

No.. don't even think about it Maan. Geet shot him a glare. I will break tat brain of yours right away.. naya ghar nahi chahiye hume..

But..

Ek baar aur boliye and see wat I do. She warned him. I swear Maan... I will

Kiss you. And he smacked her lips on hers promising her of his unconditional and forever love.

Everyone thinks I'm overreacting.

But what they don't know is how much

Of my life you really were.

You were much more to me then just another

Relationship down the drain.

No, you were my past, my present, and my future.

You are my life.

The End.

I hadn't planned for an Epilogue guys but one of you lovely Readers pearl.white requested me for the very first time and when I read her comment I too felt tat this was a need coz without this the story would be incomplete and so I used Maan's state of mind and his pain and came up with this epilogue where Geet realized wat extend Maan was in pain and hope you'll all loved this Epilogue giving a small part of their pain once again.

Thank you so much Guys coz without you Redeeming Love wouldn't have been so successful and I'll be soon coming with another short story for Geet Forum. Yes, it's another of such emotional story but not so painful. Just give me few days as I want to end my Forbidden Desire FF on blog.
