Hi, nice update. I loved the way Maan walked out after signing the property papers with his head held high.
Just make him a little soft towards Geet. I know it will not easy for him as he loves someone else but still Geet is not at fault, y such rude behaviour towards her?

Thanks Anuandevi. Maan is a proud man. It will not be easy for him to suddenly soften but when he falls for her, he will be completely smitten. Just wait for it. Till that you will have to bear his bitterness.

thats not fair.....

what did Geet see???
oohhh now i have to wait for the update.....
this is getting so addicted....

n as for that Maan.... can't expect anything better from him....
such a useless fellow....
at least she is trying to make that dosa na.... the least he could have done was to appreciate it....but no... why would he do that...
won't it hurt his ego....
poor Geet eating away that lumpy dosas.....

anyways loved the update....n thanks for the PM....

The next update will tell you what she saw. Yes, you cant expect anything better of Maan atleast now. Maan is too absorbed in his own world to see her perspective.

Part IX

As she stepped into the Handa House, she heard a resounding thud and looking ahead she saw Rano stare at her son with eyes of fury she had never seen before. She had gone red with anger, her facial muscles twitching. Just as Arjun, who had staggered forward at the impact, got his bearing and straightened up, holding his left cheek, she swung her arm and struck him hard again on the right. Geet was too shocked to react immediately, for she has never seen her mother raise her hand on either of them in all these years. Quickly recovering from the shock, she rushed to her mother's side.

"Mama, what happened? Why are you hitting Arjun like this?" Geet tried to drag her mother away from Arjun.

"What happened? Ask this scoundrel what happened," Rano yelled.

By now Geet knew something serious had happened for her mild mother to use such harsh words she had never heard her use before.

Turning to Arjun, Rano demanded, "Where were you last night?"

Arjun did not respond immediately. Livid with anger, Rano shook his arm vigorously, "Where were you on your wedding night, leaving behind your poor bride to worry over you so much that she nearly lost the baby?"

Geet's eyes widened in shock, "What baby, mama? Where is Anwesha by the way?"

"Anwesha is in her room. She has been advised complete bed rest. This rogue had got her pregnant before marriage and look at the callous way he treats his wife, knowing her condition!"

"Is this true, Arjun?" asked Geet, approaching him. Since the guy wreaked of alcohol, she had to hold her nose.

Soon Geet came to hear what transpired the previous night after she had left with Maan for the chawl. Rano and the rest of the family who had left for the Handa house earlier than the couples in order to welcome the newly-weds with arti, were shocked to see only Anwesha arrive. It seems Arjun had stopped their car mid way to Handa House and told her that he had forgotten something important back at the wedding hall. Promising to join her in a few minutes, he got off and took a cab.

The entire family then waited through the night but there was no sign of him. As the minutes ticked by, Anwesha became increasingly anxious and suddenly clutched her hands to her stomach, doubling up in pain. On the doctor's arrival they came to know that Anwesha was nearly three months pregnant and due to acute anxiety, she had symptoms of threatened miscarriage. Although news of Anwesha's impending motherhood came as a shock to Rano, the possibility of losing her first grand-child came as an even bigger shock. Anwesha was immediately put on bed rest to ensure that the baby was safe. Late the next morning Arjun trudged in after partying all night with his friends and the rest of the events Geet had witnessed herself.

Arjun was then made to go up and apologise to a weeping Anwesha. Rano made him promise to Anwesha that he will never ever do anything that will hurt her. Geet assured Anwesha that her bhabhi is always there for her and she can always confide her problems in her. Rano then pulled Geet aside and asked her how was she being treated by Maan. Geet told her that she could have never hoped to get a more caring husband.

Rano was glad to hear that and said that she knew Maan was a righteous and fair human being. Her respect for him grew when she realised Maan was gracious enough not to disclose Anwesha's pregnancy because it would only portray her son in a bad light. Geet then asked her to teach her how to cook since she sucked at that. Rano hit her forehead and said that she had meant to give her something useful but had forgotten to do so in the hectic wedding arrangements. She then went in and brought out an old note book in which Mohinder had noted down all the recipes of the dishes Rano can prepare. She narrated to her how Geet's papa had used this to capture a place in the hotel industry and now armed with this, Geet can capture a place in Maan's heart, for as the saying goes "the way to a man's heart is through his stomach". Geet blushed a deep red hearing this.

After lunch, she took leave and went to the nursing home to spend some time with her father-in-law. The doctor informed her that her husband had dropped in earlier that morning. Geet then sat by Khuranaji's bed side and holding his hand, she told him that she was his bahu now. Although the man was unresponsive in his comatose state, she continued to speak to him, telling him what a wonderful son he has and for his sake and hers, he has to get strong and return back to them soon. After spending nearly three hours with him, she returned back to the chawl. Standing on the long balcony which was common to the five houses on her floor, she watched the children playing in the courtyard in the front of the chawl building.

Manjula returned from school and met up with her. On being told about Geet's misadventures with the dosas that morning, she volunteered to teach her how to make them. Soon the two women were busy in the kitchen preparing hot steaming dosas which Geet relished. As it grew dark, Manju took leave of her and went back to her own house. After she prepared the dinner, Geet waited for Maan to return home. At around 10 o'clock she heard the front door being banged and rushed to open it. The door was pushed open as soon as she released the latch and she stood transfixed at the sight that met her eyes.
