-----------Khurana Constructions------------------------------
"Oh Mishti,my love....... I have been waiting for this moment for so long........I've found you baby and now... I wont let you out of my sight!!..........not even for a moment!"
He kissed the nape of her neck and pressed her more to him.
Geet was furious....she pushed him away with all her might.
" How dare you???? ", she asked through gritted teeth,seething.....
"After what you've done to me, why the hell are you acting like I'm your "long lost love"????
Don't you feel even an ounce of shame???
Listen to me once and for all Mr. Khurana... If you dare try to touch me again, I won't hesitate to slap you in front of all your subordinates!".
"Mishti please,let me explain...."
"It's Geet Handa!!!!...Mr.Khurana..."
He flinched at her tone,but still managed to keep a straight face.
"Mish...I mean Geet, listen to me please....
I know you're hurt and your annoyance is justifiable....
I do understand all your feelings and emotions,but please Geet,
try to see the situation from my point of view too".
"Your point of view???? really???
Listen now!....I'm telling you again...this is not the time and place for this kind of talk !"
"I know Geet,but give me a chance to make you understand!"
"Understand what?? Huh?? No thanks,....not interested in the
point of view of a bloody RAPIST!!!", spitting those hateful words
at him,she stormed out......trying to hide from him the tears that
were threatening to spill !!
******************************************************************************
He felt a gut wrenching pain....
"RAPIST !!!!".....
He knew that he deserved only this kind of treatment from her....but still her words stung his ears!!!
For the past three years he had been preparing himself to face her wrath but none of his preparations seemed to help now.
He felt hopeless & shattered.
*****************************************************************************
"No, I've to get a hold of myself!!!
My emotions run wild every time I see her...it's not going to work this way....I should not irritate her any further!
What if she leaves the job??What if she disappears again???
No...No..I can't let that happen!!
I guess it's high time I changed my approach!!!"
****************************************************************************
After that encounter, not even once did he attempt to touch her or talk something personal to her.
Their conversations were limited to their work!
As days passed,Geet herself was surprised to see this new
'Professional' Maan.......
In a short span, he had become very popular among staff and clients too.
He was genuinely fond of the chirpy and bubbly Pinky.
Pinky was wary in the beginning to respond to his friendly
advances,but soon they developed a good rapport between them.
She somehow reminded him of the young Geet in Delhi.
"My Mishti has changed a lot now..... She has become way too serious......too quiet....
She seems to have even forgotten to smile.....
What have I done to her???", he let out a sad sigh!
"I'm so sorry Mishti......but... I'll make up for all these years darling....I promise......I promise to l fill your life with laughter and love...."
*****************************************************************************
Adi too had started liking Maan, but the husband - wife duo never mentioned their appreciation in front of Geet.
Day by day,Pinky was finding it hard to believe that a warm and caring person like Maan could end up doing such a heinous act!!
Even though she still hated him ,as days passed, Maan succeeded in building up a professional relationship with Geet.
They discussed and even argued about the project details....
Geet was relieved that Maan has stopped putting her in awkward situations....it was becoming pretty easy to work with him and her confidence increased day by day!
But little did she realize about his problems.....
It was taking every ounce of his self control for the 'professional' Maan to stop himself from touching her or looking at her for too long.
He knew that he had to tread carefully or else she'll disappear again!
****************************************************************************
"Geet,for God's sake stop going for my throat,each time I reject one of your ideas!
Is this your so called professionalism??? biting the Boss' head off,when he says you're wrong???"
"Maan sir, I know what professionalism is..and for the record, I didn't go for your throat...I'm just trying to tell you that this idea will surely work!!"
As she started animatedly explaining again...he laid back on his chair relaxed...
He always enjoyed these arguments and silly fights.....
She was very intelligent and had high potential in her.
The more he taunted and teased ,the more she raked her brains to come up with brilliant ideas!!!
He was immensely proud of his Mishti!
****************************************************************************
"Maan sir, the client wants us to do the interior as well! Do you mind looking at this color card?
What do you think of this color combination?? Ummm blue and white??"
As she stood up to show him the color card, a light breeze gently
moved her sari ,giving him a glimpse of her creamy white midriff!
Maan's breath hitched in his throat!!!
"What a magnificent sight!!! I love saris.....Oh yes!"
"Maan sir???"
He jumped at her voice,panicking whether she caught him looking at the.. ahem...'wrong place'!!
"Your opinion sir??"
"Yeah Geet, dark blue against creamy white is breathtaking !!!", he said with a deep sigh!
"Sir??dark blue?? can you be more specific?? Navy blue or something like cobalt blue ??",she looked at him slightly puzzled.
"No! Sapphire blue!! I mean.. ah....the shade you are wearing right now???
Ummm I love that against creamy white!", he flashed a grin at her.
She didn't smile back, instead gave him a weird look wondering why he had that 'Cat- that -got- the- cream' grin plastered on his face!!!
