Chapter 17 : Confusion
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~Sameera who was sitting on the sofa talking over phone got her attention deviated while she heard Maan's name. She needs to discuss with Maan as well but he seems to be superbly busy while now it sounds like he is free.
"accha mujhe bhi coffee peeni hain, mere liye bhi ek bana do aur baan jaye toh bula lena mujhe main maan ke liye leke jati hoon." saying so Sameera continued her phone conversation.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"Maan!" he heard his name and moved his gaze from his laptop screen to the source of the voice to find out Sameera standing with a tray consisting two cups of coffee and a bowl of ice cream, with her beautiful smiling.
"hey." he said. Geet who was just beside him also followed his gaze immediately hearing his name from sameera's voice.
"I hope I didn't disturb you guys, I was getting bored so thought to have coffee with you..."
" Umm. Not at all yaar... Accha kiya tumne, Maan was showing me some slides, mera test hain na do din baad" Geet spoke with a big smile.
Maan was feeling a bit uneasy as Sameera has seen a side of him that day which is secret from everybody except Geet till now but then he got over it soon. As he hoped that she might have forgotten it by now!
Sameera forwarded the coffee cup to Maan and he was also going to take it at the same moment so his hands touched hers accidentally which made Sameera blush thinking this is the way may be he expresses his liking towards her. However, unaware of all this Maan took the coffee and even picked up the ice cream for his mishty who was engrossed into the slide, looking at the computer monitor. He so much wanted to feed his baby wifey but...he glanced at Sameera to find out she was only looking at him sipping her coffee.
"Your timing is very good actually, I needed to talk to you about your project , even aaj hi maine kafi sara kaam kiya hain blueprints pe" He flashed his noteworthy smile at sameera on which made her go flat swinging on her soul! Totally blown by his personality she finally spoke "haan, wo mere xyz ke paas ke zaameen k papers approve ho gaye hain, and as you know I want to build a shopping complex there...so... Ye assignment to already KC ke paas mein hain, aab batao kaam kabse shuru ho raha hain?"
Sameera started talking about work. It was equally important for her. The second reason for her coming to india was constructing the complex. They started discussing about it while Geet too listened attentively as she loved learning new things.
She scooped another mouthful of ice cream and amidst the heavy conversation with Sameera Maan got the urge to kiss the soul out of Geet and her cute pouty face made him chuckle a bit. She is a baby, in her own world frowning and pouting while relishing the ice cream, he thought and felt affection towards her witnessing all her cute antics.
"Ummm, it's sooo good"Here Geet was showing off eating the ice cream deliberately to Maan because he said he doesn't wanna have ice cream so she was just teasing him, little did she know he had other plans with the ice cream but that got busted due to Sam's presence!
"Wah, kanjus ki kanjus ho tum abhi bhi geet"he was already distracted.
"Kiyahhh"Geet instantly got defensive, she was successful although diverting his attention! 😆
"aapne mujhe" She pointed her left index finger at herself..."Geet ko... Kanjus kaha???!"She pouted hard this time. Maan also laughed hard seeing her sulking.
"Your ear is perfectly fine" Maan flashed thumbs up to Geet teasing her further with his grin.
She was going to blurt out more but soon remembered Sameera is also present there and looking at both of them. So she gave a sheepish smile to her.
"Thank you! Hain na? Maan" She softened her tone reluctantly and faked another smile "aap ko ice cream chahiye toh ye lijiye na... ya phir dusra mangwa doon?hehe" Her lips covered with a smile but when she looked at maan her eyes shoot glares at him and that made maan getting more entertained. Sameera thought it's a pretty normal conversation between two childhood friends so she shifted her gaze back at the monitor with a smile. She found both of them pretty funny actually.
"Haan chahiye na...Give me..." Even before finishing the incomplete sentence maan took the spoon which geet was going to put in her mouth and he ate the scoop instead. That's it their kiddish fight started. Both triggered their cat and mouse chasing trait!
Geet tried to snatch the spoon back with an "O" 😲 shaped pout and Maan snatched the whole ice cream bowl instead. Geet rolled her eyes gesturing Maan that Sameera is here but he was in a full mood of teasing now.
"Choro... choro... choro..." Geet was no less she tried snatching the bowl back while grabbing Maan's hand and he was stepping backward with funny expressions. "Geet... Gir jayega.. Main bata raha hoon...tum choro..." he slapped her hands. She was stepping closer to him.
"Pehle aap choriye..."she slapped and scratched his hands in back!
"Nahi, pehle tum" his voice indicating his rigidity followed by his hold on her hand. She kept smacking his hand initially lightly with a furious pace but raising the intensity of her patting later upon with each blow.
"Geeettt" He gritted. Glared at her
"Maannn" She gritted back. Also glared back.
"aab toh main yeh bowl leke rahunga" Maan switched to full challenging mode.
"hehe, accha? woh kaise?" Geet mocked and pulled Maan's hand which still engulfed the bowl with force. They completely forgot someone else was also amusingly watching them! She was staring at him soon which turned into an eye lock.
"batau kaise?" Maan played his most powerful card, shifting his naughty gaze with a smirk at her petals. She gulped her saliva bearing his intense gaze! His teasing double meaning suggested sentence made her cheek blush a little as well. Maan was looking for this opportunity only to pull the bowl back.
"Ek kaam karti hoon,Ye bowl main rakh leti hoon theek hain?"Sameera intervened finally. She glared at both the "Tom and Jerry" of a Maan and Geet then pulled the bowl out of their grip. Maan looked up at the ceiling while Geet gave another sheepish smile at Sameera.
Sameera couldn't maintain her hard expression for long and she too started laughing by both their childish act "Tum dono bhi na... Pura pighal chuka hain,lol, wait main dusra mangwa deti hoon, tumhare liye bhi mangwa rahi hoon Maan" She said.
"Nahi nahi , it's ok aao discussion continue karte hain" Maan stopped Sameera feeling a little bit embarrassed.
"Aur tum Miss jangli billi, chup chap dekhogi hamara kaam, this part is going to be important for your upcoming assignments" Geet was going to react "Aapne mujhe jagli b but couldn't finish since Maan glared at her and put his finger on his lips gesturing to shut up "Chup!" Then again moved the same finger signing towards the computer. Geet nodded with a pout and all three of them devoted themselves to the construction discussions.
After a while, Geet's phone beeped. She checked it and got to read a text message from Dev. She excused herself from Maan and Sameera and then departed from Maan's room to Meet Dev. He was waiting for her at the terrace.
"Hi dev, kiya haal hain" Geet greeted him with her beautiful smile. She remembered her last night with Maan.
"Yaar, kuch samajh nahi aa raha..." Dev looked tensed and broken. He explained to her that he has told naintara about another girl but she took it very sportingly.
"Aisa kiya kaha tumne, I mean kaise kaha, Wo toh batao" Geet confusingly asked him.
His phone was ringing in his pocket so their conversation got paused and he was being called by some of his friends for casual talk, seeing the circumstance he silenced his phone giving preference to his current discussion with Geet.
"Ok, so where were we? Yes, so I told her that i met a pretty girl''Dev resumed his conversation with geet.
"Aur?" Geet waited with exciting eyes!
"Aur kiya?'' Dev seemed puzzled seeing her excitement!
"Baasss??????" Her excitement vanished like how balloons get deflated of air with a pace!
Her disappointment reflected into her chirpy voice as well. She slapped her own forehead and continued "uffo, tum naaa... Isse kiya hoga, itne se wo kiya kisi pe bhi koi asar nahi hoga"
"Toh phir??" Dev raised his eyebrows and added "yaar, sacchi mein ek baat batau? Mujhe na ye plan kuch theek nahi laag raha, how about I try to make her feel loved by Me more instead? Uske liye koi idea hain toh do"
"Hmm" She thought for a few seconds, "agar tumhara dil nahi maan raha toh... khair jaane do.. Haan ye bhi kar sakte ho, make her feel loved and uskey baad reaction dekho" Geet supported him with a smile.
"Tum toh ek ladki ho na? Aisa kiya karu koi idea toh do, mera dimag bilkul kaam nahi kaar raha, bhai ne waise bhi watt laga ke rakha hain meri, upar se main bohot sarey tarikey azma bhi chuka hoon." Dev asked her.
"Accha!!! Dekho har insaan alag alag hota hain, aab mujhe jo pasand hain wo Nt ko bhi pasand ho aisa jaruri nahi magar kuch choti choti cheezey hain jo sari ladkio ko pasand hain shayed" She stared at the Moon.
"Woh kiya?" Dev asked in anticipation.
"Chote chote meethe meethe luvs" She said in a dreamy voice. Her mind was clouded with Maan and only Maan.
Dev seems to be puzzled once again. Seeing his plight geet smiled and came out of her trance "Nahi samjhe na? Main samjhati hoon"
----------------
Meanwhile, Maan and Sameera were still talking. Basically, maan was talking and Sameera was drooling over him.
Maan does notice her erratic behaviors around him but for some reason, all the women around him are like that and he really doesn't give a crap about thinking about any random woman or their attitude.
"Tumhe main jo gupta wala file dikhana chahta hoon na woh dev ke paas hain, wait I will cal dev to send the file to nakul"Maan said looking at Sameera. He tried to reach for his phone and called Dev but he didn't pick up. Maan was going to try again but got interrupted by Sameera.
"Rehne do, main khud jaake leke aati hoon dev se. Aur uske saath waise bhi baat karni hain na materials ke bare mein. Designs toh useh bhi pata hona jaruri hain." Saying so she stood up. She just wanted to do everything Maan needed by herself. He is doing so much for her! Why is he such a gentleman! She blushed inside her head and dragged her feet towards the hall.
Unable to find Dev she asked Nakul about his whereabouts and got to know that he is indeed at home and might be on the terrace, as sometimes he is there. Also, it's moonlit night out side so he must be enjoying the dazzling moon!
She climbed the stairs and heard a very familiar female voice and when her mind comprehended what she was saying her eyes got widened. She saw the side portion of the woman and her mind synchronized the owner of that voice and matched the visual result with Geet!
"I love you, I love you so much..." Geet looked at dev making direct eye contact. "I know I don't always say this, magar mujhe bey-tahasha mohabbat hain tumse"
Sameera saw them standing by the terrace corner, Geet stepping closer to dev while dev was intently looking at her and the moon was adding to the effect more!
"Geet...Tum..." Dev smiled nervously and was silenced by Geet who kept continuing "When I think about losing you my heart just wrenches with pain! You know that you mean the world to me right? Phir itni berukhi kyun? kiya galti huwi hain mujhse?"
"Aur geet nahi, I am dev and you are Nt" She whispered this portion. Then continued "Tum kyun ... Nahi sunn rahe ho jo mujhe kehna hain..." Saying so she burst out laughing silently... But that was not visible to Sameera since she already dragged herself out from there the moment Geet said "kiya galti huwi hain mujhse"
"What the..."After a long pause Sameera murmured back "Hell... . . . . . . Gosh! I can't see this anymore" Sameera who was stunned by the whole scenario was baffled and she just came downstairs thinking about witnessing the private moment between Dev and Geet.
But dev has a girlfriend already. And Geet knows that. What is she doing? What kind of girl having a self-respect does that? Is she after Khurana's money or what? Trying to encapsulate dev into her trap or what?
She looks so innocent yet ...or she just genuinely loves DEV! Love can make people do wonders! Sameera had a real hard time believing that Geet was a nasty gold digger type of a mean girl! So she tried to reason with herself, then the thought of Maan came into her mind. Geet's relation with Maan is still very confusing.
Maan himself is an enigma so, thinking about him was making Sameera more confused so she just went back to Maan's room with a perplexed expression written over her face!
---------------------------------------------------------------------
Precap : "Maan, pleaseee! she pleaded. And he looked back at her worried if he has hurt her but saw her aroused expression instead.
