Part 1 -
" Di Jiju kitna handsome hai ...ohh Siddharth Malhotra se bhi jayada ..." Ritu went to downstairs at once to welcome her new brother in law ..after sometime she came back with their cousins , all having a sour face ..
Ritu ignored all and went to her sister who sitting like a statue .." di ap kitne lucky ho ..Jiju so nice kash apke jaga main hoti " she gave a dreamy look .." bas ek problem hai , Woh haste nehi ".
" how can he smile ? He is just a Robot na " Kaya her cousin said mockingly and others to join ..
" ha sahi kaha ..poor Geet ..you have such a bad luck ..Yes you are 28 London return , I'm sure Uncle could have find more better match than this ..but poor you ab toh isse hi settle hona hoga "
" Shut up .. Lily don't talk nonsense ..Dad is best and he would never chose wrong for di "
Ritu glared at them and hugged her sister tightly and whisper .." don't pay attention to them ..they are what you call ? oh ha jealous bitch ..I'm so happy for you Di ..."
Geet remembered her wedding day now regretting for not listen to her cousin ..yes they were jealous but they were saying truth ..How could her dad do this ? She was return last year from London, that time her dad was pressuring her for marriage.. and she was adamant to not marry anyone . This time he emotionally blackmailed her so she have no choice other than agree ..but she never thought her father would chose someone like this for her ..
" Was I a burden in him ? "
her relatives are very old fashioned ..according to them a girl should be married within 25 ..she was 28 , her relatives were saying or say telling her dad to get her marry ..she knew her father is not like that . he would never listen those relatives but no he did forced her to marry by his choice ..
" I was so wrong, Dad is also like them ..he just want to get rid of me ..How could you Dad ? I will never forgive you "
a tear drop as she start thinking about her boyfriend and wish she didn't do that mistake of leaving London ..may be then she wouldn't have face all this ..
*************************
Geet looked at her one week husband.. sitting on breakfast table silently . She knows he is waiting for her but she don't know if she should go or leave from there .
its one week but nothing change , only worsen for her ..in this week he never tried to talk or do anything with her . she only thinking may be he planning something ..but what can be she not sure , definitely wants to know what's the mystery behind his silence ..but her ego not letting her to question him so she took another way ..
silently she went to kitchen and make tea adding two spoon salt ..she doing it for three days now , thought may be he would get angry and ask her something or reveal his intention but to her luck nothing happened ..He would drink salt tea silently and gone uttering nothing , still she applied this plan again ..
" good morning " Maan greeted her as soon as she gave him tea , this manner thing not changed though he will always say morning , night or bye ..and to save from any lecture , she would replied half heartily but this time she didn't ..
" Good morning " he repeat again ..by his tone she couldn't understand if he is angry or irritate intact he looks normal ..but she got her answer when he muttered
" bad manners "
finally she got a reaction from her one week husband ..he is irritate ..she did victory dance in her mind but kept her expression normal .. He took a sip of his tea and open his mouth to say something but closed again ..she felt disappointed as her plan flop again ..but after sometime she heard his plain voice
" I take one spoon sugar in my tea ..not salt.. I would be great full you make tea only with sugar ..although you look sweet but you are bitter thats why may be used to drink bitter tea ..but I'm a sweet person ..I only like sugar .." her coffee mug drop as she listen his comment .. she blink sometimes to register if she heard right
" bitter me ?Look you ".
" Of course you are bitter.. see you ruined my first night ..I had so many dreams .. " he pause for sometime as if recalling his desired thing " I had so many expectation but my luck I can't even do the Act ..poor me "
Her face turn red ..she don't have any answer but then thought ' you should be lucky to get me ..I'm sure no girl in her sane mind would like to marry a robot like you ' then she thought about Act ...' this man is so desperate ..dad why you do this to me ? '
" I don't drink tea ..I take coffee with sugar only " after sometimes she answered ignoring his previous comment ...
" oh I know , my mistake you drink black coffee ..its same bitter ..I tried once it's so bad you should change this habit "
He start eating bread ignoring her ..she looked at her coffee , recalling old days how she used to say the same thing to Dev but he never listens ..even she got this habit from him ..
" what are you thinking ? "
Maan's voice broke her thought .. " umm nothing ..its just I want to ask something " she thinks for sometimes then said " Why are you avoiding me ? "
" is it bothering you ? Are you missing me ? " this time he is too fast ..Geet noticed his eyes gone bright .
she gave s expression like are you gone mad, Maan smart to understand that " oh you didn't just general question " is he disappoint Geet couldn't guess " I was giving you space "
" Space ? "
" yes space means ... a continuous area which is free or available ..
or freedom to think , live , and develop in a way that suits one
or one of two possible states of a signal in certain systems..( credit Google )
but in our case im giving you time so that you can forget your past and move on with me ".
Both looked at each other for few minutes ..Geet's brain blocked at his explanation where he has same bore face ..
' is he for real ..how can he expect me to forget Dev so soon and move on with Him ..what type of person is he ? ' she took a deep breath ..
" look Maan you don't need to give me space .. let's just be normal couple ..try to know each other and see where this relation go .." she replied honestly " but I'm glad you don't have any bad intention " she couldn't even finished as Maan jumped in
" let me guess what you were thinking ...you thought I will do like those novel hero , threatened you to let me do Act with you ..and you have to agree for the sake of your family right.. or else I will kill your sister or may be ruined your father business " Geet looked at him shocked as don't understand if he joking or serious ..his one expression not helping her either
" but as I say I'm sweet not bitter like you , I would never do that ..yes you are attractive but i will stop myself and won't force you to do Act " he repeat the same like their first night but add something more " you are my wife , I respect you and your decision " at this point Geet forced to think is he really sweet person ..with blunt mouth ?
