Part 95
L- So you wanna go out with me?
G- where?
L- On a date
Geet frowns
Then smiles
G- Sure!
+++++
Lisa takes Geet to a rock-climbing place
Geet is surprised
G-so you…
L- so this is where I spend my time, when I say I am going for shopping and parties
G-oh
L- Come on! You will have fun!!
Lisa beams at Geet
+++++
They spend the whole afternoon rock climbing and chit chatting
They have lunch together and create a bond
Both the ladies find a friend in one another that they never had
But their happiness is short lived
Mona calls them and informs that Maan’s mom is no more
++++++
Both the ladies reach the hospital
Maan is standing in a corner in a defeated sunken position with his arms crossed around his chest and his head drooping down
Geet finds him around the crowd and walks up to him
She rubs her soft warm hands on his arm and puts her head on his bicep
He doesn’t react to her touch
Just gives out a sigh
+++++++++
Few days pass by
Mom ki death ke baad Maan ko mom ke death ka guilt, uske brother ke death ka wo repressed pain and his layers of abandonment issues, jo wo kabhi kisi se share nahi karta, are all piling up inside him
He has that brooding anger inside him
Geet notices something change in Maan, but can’t put a finger on what
Baaki time when he was in bad mood toh Geet kuch goofy kar deti
But things are different now, ab Geet will try something goofy but Maan aur uspe chidd jaata hai
Geet Is hopeful that things will become better with time, it’s just his grief and she thinks he has full right to grief in his own way
But she doesn’t know it is just not his grief; it’s his anger on himself and his frustration on life
More than anger its repressed emotion jo outburst naa ho hoke toxic hota gaya aur ab aur pile on ho raha hai
Geet would try ki baat karo, try to soothe him but he would stay away
He doesn’t show much emotions
All he shows is morose depression sadness and guilt
Geet would keep her hand on his shoulder toh yaa toh koi react nahi karega, statue ki tarah baitha rahega , uthke chala jayega yaa haath jhatak dega
As if he was repelled by Geet. He would avoid her
He couldn’t sleep in nights
Geet ne kuch medicines diye ki this will help, dietary change bola
He got more pissed ki
M-I don't sleep because I want to avoid you. I don’t want to deal with you! Your presence takes away my peace
