PARI 54

He tried to say something.. But then his heart just shattered just with the thought.
What was she saying? Was she breaking up with him? Without her knowing him and everything that happened to them in the last year? That's so not fair.
Geet - What did you really want, Mr Khurana? Is it the money? How much?

Maan - What? asked back, totally appalled.

Geet - Come on, Mr Charmer. It's only the two of us in here. And I noticed that you have won over my mother, my sister, and my best friend. I want you to stay away from them, too. Could we stop all pretenses now and let's just go our separate ways and pretend nothing happened? I am willing to compensate you for your trouble.

His eyes widened. He could swear, if Geet didn't already have a brain injury, he was going to inflict one on her right now.. Only thing holding him was not to raise his hands on a women. He was seething with anger. How dare she? What does she think of him?

Maan - I don't believe this

He spoke pushing his hair behind

Geet - I know, right? Me too! She rolled her eyes sarcastically.
He stared back at her helplessly. He couldn't believe his misty could say all this.

She stared back at him. Her eyes narrowed and for sure Maan saw a glint of emotion there. Then her expression turned cold again.

Geet - Please don't make it difficult, Mr Khurana. I don't want it to get any uglier

Maan was still trying to understand this woman infront of him. He bit back his seething rage. How could this Geet be so mean?
Geet - Let's not beat around the bush. You probably came from a typical Indian family. I was told you were some Architect. I think you are ambitious. Well, maybe it's a good thing that I lost a year of my memory, because I have time to undo what you are about to do to me.

That was it.. Maan lost it totally .. he didn't want to raise his voice .. he just begged silently misty please don't say all this.

She stood there watching him. He knew that she was only trying to be mean to him to shove him away. He could see a glimmer of emotion in her eyes, but she was fighting it. One way he felt so much love and concern and in other way he felt so insulted and raged. He knew only his misty could make him feel all this at the same time.

Geet - I stay away from guys like you.

Before she could insult their love futher

Maan rorared - chup ek dam chup.

She didn't even flinch she stared back at him with equal intensity.

Maan - Mana ki tumhe kuch yaad nahi. Mana u can't relate to me. Guys like me! What do you think about me? Itna kuch pata kiya tumne .. yeh nahi pata kiya what business I have in India. It won't be very difficult just google Khurana's. If money was all I wanted I could stayed back in India taken care of my family business. We can buy out Handa's in no time.

Geet shrugged like she didn't care - I don't know you well enough to judge you. But the last thing I want is to end up with a mercenary playboy who is only using me to gain access to my bank accounts

The word "Mercenary playboy echoed in his head. Is this what she was like before they met.

Maan - tum mujhe mercenary playboy kah rahi ho.. He threatened

Geet - Awaz neeche Mr Khurana. I didn't say that you are. I don't know you well enough to judge you. I'm just saying that I'm trying to stay away from men who only wanted me for what I am worth.

Maan had to grit is teeth and ball his fists to keep himself from swinging his hand at her.

Maan - Shayad yeh sahi waqat nahi yeh sab baat karne ka. I'll see you some other time

He turned away from her. When he looked back, he found that her eyes were looking at him. She was totally checking him out. Finally, she looked at his face.

Geet - Well, for what it's worth, I understand why I would have been attracted to you. But I still don't think you could trick me into marriage...she paused.. or love.

He was so angry, hurt, and insulted, he didn't bother to retort back. He turned away from her and bumped into Raji who was just getting inside the room.

She stared up at him and saw disappointment laced with anger he was trying to hold back.

Her expression softened and she reached out to touch his arms.
Raji - aap teehk hain na Maan

Maan - I'll be fine, Raji. aab lagata hain mujhe myausi ki aadat daal lene chaiyen

Then he just turned to leave the room. He could hear Raji lash at geet.

He was so upset when he got back to Handa mansion. Geet seems like a total stranger to him now. He never knew she could be this harsh, this mean.

When he met her, she was a dream. She was a sweet girl who he thought only existed in fairy tales. This Geet also seemed so unreal... but in a terrible way like some witch from the same fairy tale.

God, she was worse than Nt. Nt the reason why he vowed he would never date an ambitious girl. He didn't want sex or money come in between them. He wanted just simple love. Was it too much to ask.

It took him months to stop fighting what he felt for Geet. She was so persistent, so sincere, so desperate. She did everything to make him believe her, trust in her. And now... she was an example of the very reason why he didn't want to fall for her in the first place.

He really thought his situation was so stupidly ironically hilarious. He could actually roll on the floor laughing if he was not too busy bawling his eyes out.

That night he slept he walked into her room. He softly traced her dresses.. He tugged one of her pillow. And as he lay down on her bed, he silently cried his heart out. He prayed for about the millionth time that this was just a bad dream that he would soon wake up from.
