Part 123
M-What?
G- I am confused
G-I really wanted to get married to you at some point
He is looking at her
M- You want to break up?
G- You already broke up with me
M-I never said that. You assumed that. I said I want a break, not break up
She rolls her eyes
G-See! See! That’s why. Marriage is a big step, big responsibilities. It requires commitment, transparency. You hardly share your feelings with me.... maybe you don’t trust me enough. I don’t blame you for that. You don’t have to justify yourself or your actions. But that’s how it is. So, I want to wait for the day when I gain that trust
M- I wanted to protect you!
G- I know! And the best way you thought of was to push me away. Isn’t it? This whole push pull might be exciting for an affair or a young relationship, but for marriage it needs stability
M- Then what do you want to do?
G- Don’t know, that’s why we are discussing this, isn’t it? I want this relationship to turn into marriage because we both want it that we...because we want to share our life with each other.... not any other reason like, we are staying in a live in for this long, ladki se aur kaun shaadi karega, blah blah blah
M- But I need you
G- You don’t. Right now, you need professional therapy...not me. I am not a rehabilitation center for your damaged emotions, I can support you to heal but you have the reins of your life in your hand, and you can choose to turn it any way you like. See; there is no taboo in therapy.... I need one and I am in one, and you need one and you should be in one. I want our relationship to be fulfilling and complete not symbiotic
She moves closer and holds his hand
G-I love you
He nods and looks down
M-I love you too
They keep looking into each other’s eyes for few moments
M-By the way, I have this for you
He produces the ring. This is the heirloom ring he got for her to propose. But ab aisa kuch ho nahi raha toh, phir bhi he wants her to keep the ring
M- Keep this with you
She takes it
G-Thanks. I will keep this with me

Dono room se bahar nikalte hain
Mom dad bahar khade hain in anticipation
Kuch rishtedaar bhi ghar pe hain
Rishtedaar have expression like ‘ladke ke saath kamre thi!’, gossip mil gai gossip mil gai
Geet doesn’t give a damn
Maan looks around
M- Main pyaar karta hoon Geet se...shaadi karna chahta hoon
Rishtedaar go like- Kya??? Pyaar?
Mom looks at Geet, who was walking but had stopped hearing Maan
Mom-Geet?
M-Geet ...nahi karna chahti
G-Abhi...abhi nahi karna chahti
M-Abhi nahi karna chahti
Rishtedaar-Shaadi karni hai toh abhi hi karlo
Mom is trying to diffuse the situation
Mom-Khana lag gaya hai khana khaa lete hain
Khana laga diya, rishtedaar bhi chale gaye
++++++
Dad-Shaadi karni hai toh abhi karlo
G-Abhi nahi karni hai
M-We have to sort few stuff
Mom-What stuff? Jo itne din saath rehke sort nahi hua woh ab kaise hoga?
M-Main Geet ke layak banna chahta hoon
Mom-tum doctor toh nahi ho, waise bhi uske layak kaise banoge
Dad-Architect toh hai naa
G-Maan ke ghar mein kuch problems hain toh abhi shaadi nahi kar sakte
Mom-Kya problem hai tumhare ghar pe?
Mom directs the question at Maan
Mom is not afraid or respectful of Maan just because of his money or status. She treats him like she would treat any guy of his age
G- Maan's mom recently passed away
Geet answers instead of Maan
Mom-Oh...I am sorry
She is remorseful
Mom-Nahi nahi .... koi baat nahi tum time lo....ek saal baad kar lenge
Dad-Haan haan
M-Thanks. Mujhe abb chalna chahiye
Mom-Tum ek kaam karo yahin ruk jao
G-Huh?
