CHAPTER 12. FRIENDSHIP TIME!

"Geet! Geet just listen!", Geet heard Maan call but she continued to walk. She did not want to hear him or his words, Geet had decided. The whole idea of him judging her and checking her had her very angry. It had been few days since Arnav Maan identity truth came out and after that day, Geet was seeing Maan today only.

Maan persisted with his calling of her name as he continued to drive his car beside her. For the umpteenth time, she wished Khushi was with her right now. But Khushi's house was on the other side of the town. So both had to go opposite ways once their college day ended.

Geet was so lost in thoughts that she did not notice the car following her stop few steps back. She only realised it when out of nowhere Maan Singh Khurana arrived in front of her.

"Uff!", she leaned back in shock and managed to stumble back. She realised she might fall down. Just then Maan grabbed her hand and stabilized her. She gained her balance just as her eyes fell on his hand holding her. She looked at Maan and then at the hand nervously. Maan noted her glance and pulled his hand away. Both looked around awkwardly.

As few seconds passed, Maan could not maintain his silence, "I am sorry!"

"Ji?", Geet looked up in shock.

Maan looked at her with sincere expression on his face, "I am sorry!"

Geet looked at him confused and Maan elaborated, "I was wrong. Main galat tha! Mujhe tumhaare saath aisa nahi karna chaahiye tha! Arnav ke saath identity change tumhein jaanne ke liye, yeh galat tha! Please mujhe maaf kardo!"

Geet looked away uncomfortably. That night after Maan and his Daadima had left, Geet had pondered over the situation. She had wondered what would have happened if Maan had disclosed his identity from start. She would have been excited? Yes! Would she have blushed and stuttered? Yes, because Maan would have been still her Prince Charming who saved her life. And she would have behaved the same way she did and he would have thought the same things about her that he said to Arnav in Hoshiarpur. At the end, he would have rejected her. Whether it was as her would be or as her Prince Charming, she would have been rejected.

Then another thought made its presence known to Geet. Or maybe if Arnav wasn't there Maan wouldn't have spoken out so harshly. And maybe he would have rejected her gently. Which meant Geet would still have crush on him and continued to hope that maybe one day he might feel something for him. Maybe she would go and pray to Babaji that he fell for her and came back to her. Even if that did not happen, she would have kept him on pedestal and ignored his flaws. That night Geet realised, that in a way, by being harsh, Maan broke her illusions regarding him. Gone was the Prince Charming for her! Now he was just another human who came to see her and rejected her and who was also the guy who saved her life.

Maan took her silence as anger and started to speak again, "Geet please! Dekho mujhe pata hai ki maine jo kiya woh galat tha! Par galtiyaan toh insaan se hi hoti hai right?"

Maan wondered how long it would take her to forgive him. He hoped she was not the type of girl who needs gifts to appease her. Just as that thought struck him, Maan scolded himself. He should not assume things about people, Maan reminded himself. He had already assumed things about Geet before he even met her and only found out too late that she was totally different person than what he thought of her. He wondered if he had gone to Hoshiarpur without his assumptions, how different the trip would have been!

"Theek hai! Maine aapko maaf kiya!", Geet spoke up breaking into Maan's thoughts and Maan smiled at the news. In the moments he spent with Geet after they ran away from Hoshiarpur he found her to be interesting person. Even his Daadima was impressed by Geet and that was very rare. So after the truth came out, Maan was plagued with the thoughts of loosing a chance to spend time with such an interesting girl due to his arrogance and decided that he would apologise when he got the chance. Even if it was not his fault that the identity change happened, he did assume things about her. So he decided to apologise! And today he got her forgiveness! Only Maan knew how light he felt right now!

"Achcha! Toh main chalti hun!", Geet spoke again and turning around she was about to walk away when...

"Tum chaaho toh tumhein ghar chod sakta hun!", came Maan's response from behind. Now that Maan was here, he did not want Geet to go away so soon.

Geet turned around in surprise, "Are you sure?"

Maan shrugged and walking to his car, he opened the car seat.

Geet hesitated only for a second before walking towards the car.

Maan sent her a tender smile for her decision and Geet's breath hitched. She sat in the car and looked at her hands with wide eyes. No! She told herself. She can't fall for him again! He is not interested in you, she coached herself.

Few minutes later, Geet and Maan were on the way to the Manchanda house. Maan was asking about her courses and she gave details and soon they were discussing their hobbies and likes dislikes. If Geet's knowledge on different types of pasta dishes and ways to cook them surprised him, then her affinity towards cycling and badminton shocked him. It dawned on to him, how horribly he had misjudged the girl. As they travelled, Geet and Maan were delighted to find each other such an interesting company and Geet decided that the real Maan was way more interesting than the Prince Charming she daydreamed about. And as far as Maan was concerned, it would not surprise anyone that he was getting smitten more and more by the enchantress named Geet as he talked and learned more about her. Her cheerful and bubbly nature, her talkativeness and her expressive face all endeared her to him and suddenly he wished they had more time alone at Hoshiarpur.

As they drove, Geet suddenly squealed, "Maan! Gaadi roko!"

Maan stopped the car in shock. He looked at Geet who pointed outside, "Dekho Maan! Baaraat!"

Maan frowned and Geet continued, "Chalo! Baaraat mein naachenge!"

"Kya?", Maan looked at Geet in horror. Geet noticed his expression and let out a giggle. When his horror turned into annoyance and he narrowed his eyes, Geet smiled, "Woh kya haina Maan, Hoshiarpur mein main har baaraat mein jaake naachti thi! Mujhe dance karna achcha lagta hai! Aap bhi aayiye na! Saath mein naachenge!"

"Kya?", Maan was once again shocked to silence. Geet huffed, "Aap na Maan, bahut bade bore ho! Aap baitho yahaan, akele! Main chali naachne!"

Maan watched with wide eyes as Geet exited his car and ran to the procession going to the wedding hall. Before Maan knew it, Geet was joining the baaraatis and dancing with them. Maan could not look away from her form. She looked lively, her movements full of energy, the smile on her lips never wavering. As Geet danced, Maan got out of the car and leaned against the car, his arms folded against his chest, a soft smile dancing on his lips.

Geet suddenly noticed him observing and her eyes lit up. She ran to him and tried to drag him with her. He resisted few attempts but when she pouted, Maan could not resist anymore. He allowed her to drag him and Maan found himself in the thick of the baaraat with Geet dancing in front of him. Maan did not know when his hands raised up and he started doing Bhangra with her. Geet's eyes widened at that and her smile widened more and both danced for a while till the Baaraat started to move far from their car. Both wished the groom good luck and walked away laughing.

As they neared the car, Geet spoke up, "Aaj bahut mazaa aaya na?"

Maan nodded.

Geet spoke again, "Mujhe nahi pata tha ki The Great Maan Singh Khurana Bhangra bhi jaanta hai!", her tone was teasing.

Maan shrugged and leaned towards her, "Yeh toh kuch nahi hai! Aur bahut saare cheezein hain jo tum mere baare mein nahi jaanti! Mere saath aur time spend karo! Dheere dheere sab jaan jaaogi!"

Geet's eyes widened and she leaned back a little uncomfortably. Is he flirting with me?

Was he flirting with her? Maan thought as they awkwardly got into the car.

They were still lost in their thoughts when they reached Manchanda house. As Geet got out, she smiled at Maan, "Aapse baat karke achcha laga!"

As Geet turned to walk away, Maan got out of the car and called out for her. She stopped and turned and he smiled at her, "Tumne mujhe maaf kiya, thanks for that!" Geet was about to say it was nothing but Maan did not allow her to, "Actually, ek aur favor chaahta hun tumse!" Geet frowned and Maan elaborated, "Kya tum meri friend banogi? Can we be friends?" Geet blinked in surprise and then hesitantly nodded. Maan smiled at her, "Good night!" "Good night!", Geet whispered and she turned and walked away.

Maan stared at her retreating back for a while and then turned around and walked to his car. As he drove off, he wondered what made him ask for her friendship when he had only planned to ask forgiveness and get moving.

Khushi smiled as she looked through the Sarees in front of her and picked one. Yeh achcha rahega! Geet ise bahut pasand karegi! Khushi decided as she looked at the Saree in front of her. The place she had come to for buying Saree had only costly pieces but Khushi was determined. It was her best friend's birthday pretty soon and Khushi wanted to give Geet something that would cheer her up. And Khushi had seen Geet salivate at the Sarees in the store when they had passed by once.

With a smile, Khushi finalized a red Saree. Laal rang Geet ka favorite hai! It was one of those transparent sexy type Saree and Khushi felt Geet would enjoy wearing it a lot. As she turned to go to the counter to pay the money for the Saree, she crashed into someone. Her eyes widened when right in front of her was Maan'. No! Wait! This was Arnav! His friend was Maan! Hey Devi Maiyya! Waqt lagega inhein sahi naam se bulaane mein!

Arnav watched with wide eyes as Khushi smiled at him. His heart pounded in his chest and he begged it mentally to calm down. No heart! You cannot beat for her! She does not like you! But his heart beat continued to speed up and he smiled uneasily, "Hi!"

Saying hi, Arnav tried to walk by and Khushi frowned. Bas! Hi! Hoshiarpur mein toh itna saara baat kar rahe the aur aaj ek dum maun! Not fair Arnavji!

"Arnavji! Aap yahaan?", Khushi asked. She did not want him to go. She wanted to talk to him more!

Arnav so wanted to ignore the girl. He was so not interested in the girl who thought of him as ajeeb and weird! No thank you! But unfortunately even after being tagged ajeeb by her, his heart still yearned for her. And Arnav was unable to resist her voice and turned around. Inside his head, his brain was berating his emotions for not standing firm and ignoring the girl. Outside Arnav pasted a smile on her face and spoke to Khushi, "Ya! Kisi ke liye Saree lene aaya hun!"

Saying his words, Arnav turned around and went to the designer Saree counter. Khushi frowned. Yeh Saree kiske liye le rahe hain? Hey Devi Maiyya! Kahin inki koi girlfriend toh nahi? She felt like crying right now. Par humein kyun farak pad raha hai inki girlfriend hone se? Khushi wondered. Nahi! Humein nahi farak padta! Khushi decided and yet she was unable to stop herself from following Arnav.

"No! No! No! You are not understanding what I want!", Arnav huffed as he looked at all the Sarees spread over the counter by the salesman. If only his Di was not a big fan of Sarees from this store Brand, Arnav would have designed a custom Saree just for his Di! But no! Di had to go and fall in love with Sarees from this Brand only. Arnav huffed but continued to sort through the Sarees. None of it was like what he wanted for his Di.

Just then a voice came from nearby, "Arre Bhaiyyaji! Yeh nahi! Woh upar dekhiye! Woh nikaaliye!" Arnav turned to see Khushi smile at him as she pointed the Saree to the shop keeper. Shopkeeper frowned. Abhi toh yeh leke gayi thi yahaan se Saree! Ab aur kyun dikhaane bol rahi hai!

"Woh kya haina Arnavji! Humne jo Saree Geet ke liye pasand ki thi ab humein achchi nahi lag rahi! Toh aur options dekhne aaye hain!", Khushi smiled brightly at Arnav and went back to looking at Saree. Hey Devi Maiyya! Hum bhi kya Lucknow Mail ki tarah badbad kiya jaa rahe hain! Unhonein poocha kya Khushi jo tum jawaab dene nikal padi!

"Toh tum Geet ke liye Saree lene aayi ho?", Arnav asked softly. If he was stuck by her side, might as well talk to her. I cannot have you in my life Khushi, yeh chote mote moments se hi kaam chalaana padega.

"Ji! Geet ka birthday aa raha haina, isliye! Aur aap kiske liye le rahe hain? Apni girlfriend ke liye?", the word girlfriend was said with as much as bitterness as possible.

Arnav frowned. Why do I feel as if Khushi is not happy with the aspect of me having a girlfriend? Maybe she likes me! No! I am just imagining that! "Nahi! I don't have any girlfriends! This is for Di! Her wedding Anniversary is coming up!" I wanted you as my girlfriend! Woh plan toh khadde mein gaya! Ab toh main single hi hun!

Khushi wanted to dance. Hey Devi Maiyya! No girlfriend! Lekin hum kyun itne khush ho rahe hain?

Just then Arnav spotted two Sarees that he liked. But which to buy? Dono khareedun toh? Nahi! Di won't be happy with me buying her two gifts. She will complain about me spoiling her to Naani who will give me a big pravachan on not wasting money. No thanks! Arnav pouted. Yeh lun ki woh lun? I am so confused. That is when he noticed Khushi. Perfect!

Khushi was still looking through Sarees and seeing if anyone of them is better than the one she chose earlier when suddenly she was grabbed by Arnav. She looked with wide eyes as Arnav placed one Saree on one shoulder of hers and other Saree on other shoulder.

"I am still confused!", Arnav spat still oblivious to Khushi's wide eyed look, "Khushi! You tell me which is better? I cannot decide!" And that is when Arnav looked up and noticed Khushi glazed eyes, "Khushi you alright?"

Khushi was lost in Arnav as she watched him place the Sarees and muse on which was better on her. Hey Devi Maiyya! Humaari dhadkane kyun tez ho rahi hai! Humein aisa kyun lag raha hai ki yeh waqt yahin ruk jaaye aur kabhi na aage badhe!

"Khushi you alright?"

"Haan! Kya!", Khushi was confused as she came out of her thoughts.

"You alright?", Arnav asked and Khushi nodded.

"So tell me Khushi! Which is better?", Arnav asked and Khushi finally looked down and noticed the Sarees properly.

After few seconds of observing, Khushi chose one and Arnav nodded, "Thanks for deciding! Main decide hi nahi kar paa raha tha!", saying this, Arnav hugged Khushi and walked away to buy the Saree Khushi selected.

Khushi stood there in shock. Arnavji ne humein gale lagaya! Hey Devi Maiyya! Khushi walked out of the store in daze not even realizing that she had yet to buy the gift for Geet. It was only half hour later that Khushi realised that she did not even buy Geet's Saree. Hey Devi Maiyya!

How was that for today folks?

Did you find it funny?

No negative comments people! I am five days away from my birthday!

Next up, the romance continues with rain!

Thank you, take care and have fun,

Kalpana
