Part 111
M- Can we be back?
She looks up wide eyed at Maan
M- I know ...I....but i didn’t realize this will happen ...I wanted to do better...do better for you...I thought this would be better....
M- I always loved you...but...I mistreated you...pushed you away...coz...I didn’t want you to be saddled with me...I know my mom had mental issues...I might have too...maybe not now...but in future...I....didn’t want you to be unhappy
M- I had made peace with that...you will marry some other guy...and you should have...coz I wanted you to be happy...wherever…whenever
M- But you are my responsibility now
M- This kid is my responsibility
He says looking at her belly
She looks at the direction he is looking
G-What kid?
M- You are pregnant, Geet
G-I am pregnant?
G- You think I am pregnant? And that’s why you are here?
She shakes her head
G- You are not here because of me...you are here because...you think...I have your kid
She is teary eyed
Her hopes are destroyed, her heart fluttered when she saw Maan, but now...
But Geet realizes when she replays the conversation in her mind that Maan kya soch raha tha
About his doubts about his own mental health
Maan also has a new understanding, Geet also has a new understanding
Doho hi blankly khade hain processing everything
Maan also kind of said ‘I love you’, first time
Maan also notices that Geet looks sickly
Maan in a corner of his heart somehow expects that Geet will try to clear her stand since now she knows his real good intentions behind pushing her away
But she doesn’t do any of it
She just looks dejected, tired, and defeated
She is back to her initial phase of thinking that she is not good enough for a relationship
M- Mona & Lisa were the one who lied to me about the pregnancy
Maan finally finds something to say after a while
G-You...You only came for me because you thought I was pregnant....you can go now
He sighs
G- You confuse me.... you always have. I can’t take this turmoil
G-I know you are afraid...even wary...because of your past…and your intention is not to hurt me...but you don’t realize that you are hurting me more.....coz I love you...and you don’t realize that. You don’t trust my love....you don’t trust our love
Maan sighs
M-I know you won’t understand
G-I wont...coz I don’t understand self-pity!
G-you love living on that...if I want to change anything...I bloody do it! But you don’t ...you just drown in your self-pity. That’s why....it’s useless for me to expect any different from you
G-You had pushed me away earlier thinking it was right for me...you are pushing me away now too. You don’t love me enough to work for the relationship. Maybe I am not good enough for that
Her eyes are slowly drowning in tears and her voice is breaking
She just feels weak and heartbroken
G- No Gee...
She shows her palm to him ki bass
G-No...enough...enough! Please leave! I need time to recover; and I will
G- I am not a rehabilitation center to better your life...that you have to do for yourself, that is your decision what you want from life
M-Geet, I want you to be happy (His eyes are also moist)
He goes to hold her hand but Geet haath hata leti hai
G-Yes, I will be happy. I try to be happy no matter what and I work towards it
Geet accumulates all her will power to walk away from him
