Part - 6
Geet stopped at his study door , she not having much courage to face her husband after what she said at hospital more over what her father said to her .
For few days like a spoil brat she was avoiding her father's call but when her sister told her about her father's sickness she couldn't stop herself from running to Handa mansion . Irony is Maan took her there without asking a single question. She clearly understood his previous remarks of her being selfish , not care for her Dad . All time Maan knew about her father condition there his own daughter behaving so badly .
Both just came back from her home after seeing her father . She feeling so guilty remembering her dad's pale face . She only blaming her for this . Where was She when he saw so unwell ? Where was She when he needs her most ? No She was not with him but Maan was .
Maan is not related to them , even they are business rivals still when her father gotten sick in Mumbai where they went for business meeting , Maan took him to hospital . She recalled what her father said .
" princess I can't take bad decision for you . You are my daughter . I know you think I did bad with you , I forced you to marry Maan . But trust me beta i only wanted your happiness . Mumbai mein jab mujhe minor attack aaya , mein daar gayi ..daar gayi ki mein apni princess ke liye kuch nehi kar paya . "
Mohinder took a deep breath trying to talk normally ...she nodded no as if assuring him he didnt do any wrong . " ha shayed tumhe aasa laage , kya beti ki shaadi kar dena sab kuch hai ... par aasa nehi i only wanted you to stop living in past and move on . Only for this i forced you to marry . I know you have many question regarding my choice . Par beta mera dil jaanta hai maan not bad . He ditched such important meeting just to take me to hospital even when i m his biggest rival , it shows how geneuine this person is . "
geet couldn't believe her ears . From days she was blaming her father , blamed maan even blamed doctor uncle , there they all got her married to the best person... her father only wanted her happiness and she what she did with her father's trust ? .
She wipped her tears recalling her promise to her father that she will accept Maan whole heartedly. She raised her hand to knock but then again took back . First time she hating herself for behaving like this with the man whom her Dad choose . From the time they are married he never did anything wrong with her , in fact she disclosed such big thing still he didn't misbehave or anything. She forced to think , will her reaction would have same if she was in Maan place ? . May be not , she would have never stayed with a person who still claim to love ex , but Maan did .
She called him wood robot emotionless but in truth is he has every emotion may ay be more than her . He is more wise kind hearted man or say most kind hearted man she had ever seen . She thinks what her father said , ' past is past you can't live forever in past . Move on beta '
Move on it's not easy for her , but can she become so selfish? She is married now , she is now bound with Maan ..who respects her , who accepted her despite her past moreover who saved her father's life and never disclose it to gain sympathy . She should be feel lucky to have a husband who wants a future with her . May be she would never be able to love him at least can make a future with him . So many couple living together without love thenwhy can't she ?
Respect understanding and compromising that's all need and she is ready to do that now . ' let's move on Geet ' she promised to herself and she is more focused to fulfill it unlike last time where she was behaved foolishly forgetting her promise .
" you can come in "
her thought broke as suddenly Maan called her in . She surprised as his back is still showing ' how he sensed my presence ? ' she step in with confused look and sit before him as he pointed.
" you have been waiting for 47 minutes 23 seconds "
Maan looked at his watch then her ..she blink back her surprise .He looked as usual clam . She wants to say many things. How he sensed her? And if he sensed her why didn't let her in before ? Most of all she wants to say sorry . But before she says anything he again surprise her by his words ...
" I sensed you the moment you came at door . I'm not vampire , it's just your perfume " his tone not so pleasant
" I do have sharp nose as usual you don't know . " he taunt her straight
" I m not saying I like your smell . You have a natural scent which is good but I hate the perfume you use . Anyways back to you why I didn't call you earlier , reason one I wanted to punish you . I really liked seeing you standing there for my attention. It boost my ego and heart . You insulted me Geet and I can't let this matter go this easily. You deserve what you feeling right now . You have no right to judge me when you don't know anything about me . And second I wanted to know if you really sorry about your behaviour . I guess you are that's why you waited that long . If you didn't feel sorry enough you would have left earlier . "
she lost her voice at his big comment , but this time she not in position to judge him if he sounding rude or not . But she had to admit her hubby is unique man with full of surprises. All these days she was judging him because of his straight talking but now she admitting whatever he said till now all just truth . He is not a man of few words but he is a man who only say truth ..however or whatever he May sound he stood straight in his point . She feeling little scared as how easily he read her every action , emotion there she even not know about him other than his name . All blame is on her . She never tried to know him as her husband. Not it's big time she rectify her mistake and if lucky enough wants to make a new start . She was about to open her mouth but Maan beat her on it ...
" yes I can read you well but now you have to open your mouth to say for what you waited so long . Although seeing your face I know what's coming but I'm not letting this matter go without a proper apology . So come out of your think zone and say it like you mean it "
she gulped hard trying to think proper word but nothing came . Maan looked at her for sometime , but when she kept silent for long , he got up to go...
