Part -24
The days passed.. At the hospital'...
Maan was sitting on a stool near to Geet. Geet was laying on the bed with her fast beating heart .. her hand was squeezing on Maan's hand. she saw the doctor's forehead was tightening ,and she was moving the probe end with that cold gel to get a better view.. Finally she sighed as the monitor showed the smaller beating heart.. she smiled looking at Geet.. and geet squeezed on mann's hand tight.. tears were filling up in her eyes.. she never seen it before.. now she knew there is a little one inside her.. who is part of her body'...but then that got faded as the dr moved the probe slightely to the side for better view... but then Dr stopped her move , and again looked at Geet with a confused face,. Maan got concerened' /.... Geet's eyes were only on that tiny beating heart.. but then the Dr. moved the probe'... DR was trying to distinguish the baby parts, but it was not making much sense to her'... she got concerned.. then finally a big ear to ear smile appered on the Dr's face.. yes Mr. maan singh Khurana.. it is twins'... as she successfully located the next beats...and congratulations..
Geet raised her eyebrows',... twins!!!!..
Maan with the most beautiful smile: so., ' is it boy or a girl?
Dr with a smile: oh Mr. Khurana.. its your kids.. so it will be sweet to wait for few more months..
She left the room'.. Maan gave Geet a kiss over her forehead and then helped her to get up and dress up'... Geet was noticing the teasy smile on his lips..
Geet: what?
Maan with a shy smile : two mishties..
Geet: no way' Two DD's
Maan: Geet , tell me this DD thing.. what is DD
Geet: it is DDD..
Maan: ok this DDD?

The farmhouse was completely decorated.. Geet's friends started coming up as instructed by Geet , to be there at 5 PM to enjoy the party'... Geet welcomed them. They got surprised to see the decoration and the party arrangements.. they talked to each other saying..
Abhay: Geet we are here, still not seeing your husband..!
Geet: he will be coming soon, he is actually waiting for someone.. .
Slowly KC staff also started coming in around 6 PM.. .. Geet retired back to the room.. Sasha was walking around with her grumpy face and adi and Pinky all were enjoying the party..Where is MSK? why all of a sudden he is throwing a party for everyone and that also arranged by himself... But then Sasha spotted Panday and Manisha' so did MSK invited IP too.. so Geet should be around here too.. her eyes searched over everywhere' she noted many new faces, looks like yound people.. chatting and enjoying the party happily... by then all the KC people came in too...'
Finally acar stopped at the main gate.. Kanika walked in wearing a golden glittery knee length dress... .. she got surprised to see her friends around..
Kanika: what you guys are doing here?
Abhay: what are you doing here!!!?
Kanika: actually MSk's car'.. but then.. Daadi came down with a smile.. greeting everyone..
Everyone got into silence mode..
Daadi: are you guys enjoying the party..
Group: yes'
Daadi: welcome everyone.. few knows me well but few don't.. addressing Geet's friends... but anyway as i know you all , I would like to guide you all to join my Grandson and our loveliest bahu' ..so please , everyone come inside.. The group followed Daadi... Tash,a Sasha, Adi , and Pinky and KC employees rolled their eyes.. loveliest bahu... who IS Nayantara back with DEv???????? everyone walked in.. few with happy smile, few with doubt... ' they entered this big hall, completely arranged with white orchids and red roses' ..with satin curtains hanging from everywhere'
The music still playing.. Hall still silent.. the group just stood froze with their parted lips as wide as possible.. Sasha felt like her vision got blurred..... she shook her head once and then looked again.. yes it is Geet, holding onto Maan's left upper arm'... her jaw just dropped down unknowingly...and she flet like her eyes are filling with darkness...
Adi and Pinky just smiled wide' ..seeing the most beautiful dream they ever saw together, coming to them in reality'.. Tasha looked at the couple and unknowingly her lips stretched out'
Sunder held onto Abhay's shoulder'..Kanika just slipped on her heels once..
They walked down and Maan directly guided Geet to Kanika
Maan: Hi Kanika.. thanks for coming.. and this is Geet.. who was my secretary once.. but for last two years she is my wife.. and as I said the other day, she is not the reason behind my business success, but YES she is the reason behind my happiness, behind my smile' ... and ofcourse she is Mrs Geet Singh.. with a correction She is Mrs. Geet Khurana.. I mean in a simple way.. Mrs. Maan .. so do you need any more clarification....
Kanika felt giddiness. She again slipped on her heels.. and suddenly they heard a BOOOOOM' ..but unfortunately it was Sasha on the floor..
Maan: Adi'...
Adi: Yes sir..
Geet took Maan to her friends: this ABhay, Sunder.. Piya.. the list went on'
Maan shook hand with everyone with a smile' they just touched his hand as if they are in a dream'... and looked at him closely as if they are in an imaginery world..
Maan: Hay Geet, nobody is talking anything now' what was that Sunder said the other day about me....
Sunder looked at Geet unbelievably.. his mouth went dry and he wanted to hide his face right then behind his freinds'
Maan: Geet I have a surprise for you..
Geet: what..!
Maan pointed at a corner..: Geet saw her bhayya.. standing there..
Geet smiled wide..
Maan: I need to tell a secret..
Geet: what?
Maan: he is actually our staff and from tomorrow onwards your personal security guard'
Geet with an ear to ear smile just went into her husband's arms and hugged him tight.. the group saw it' ....their lips parted.. Geet hugging Maan in front of everyone'. Then Maan wrapped his arms around her'...a nd they smiled together in the midst of all the friends and employees holding onto each other..'.
The secret is not a secret anymore'... it went into the media.. it was the best sensational news for few days..
Meanwhile Geet appeared in front of the court, by then the lawyer gathered all the evidence against Nayantara and Dev.. Nayantara been taken to the jail, while Dev got the bail in next month. He got the divorce papers settled and waited for the court to finalize it.. he moved in with Meera'.
One night at mansion..
Geet standing at the balcony leaning back on Maan.. Maan wrapping his arms around her lower abdomen as if supporting his baby' they stood there feeling the cold wind'
Maan: do you think you can go tomorrow..
Geet: um.. its for our baby..
Maan: ha.. but..
Geet: no I am fine.. why did you kept NT's case away from me..
Maan: because I don't think she has any place in our life..
Geet: no Maan, it is because of her'... its all happened only because of her.. and I got you' ... only because of her..
Maan: so do you want to forgive her,..
Geet turning back and hugging him: no, she did commit a crime, she should get the punishment..but some where I feel we met because of her..
Maan with a calm soft voice : Geet, it is not because of her.. it is because of this.. he lifted up his taveez'... this is what united us..
Looking ta the taveez Geet said , she remebered the mela and the words from the Guru: yes' how can I forget that'....
She smiled as she hugged him again, but then the baby kicked and Maan felt the kick too..
Maan: this is your DDD only' see he is kicking me away..
Geet: ha, he will be my protector..
Maan: ha, but when my Mishti comes na.. you see .. we will be the great team..
Geet: let see...'
The night got more darker.. Geet and Maan got back into their room.. Geet rested in Maan's arm'.. and slipped to a most beautiful dream
