Geet (looking up): hey Babaji…mein yeh kya
soch rahi hoon? Nahi nahi…Mk said na…he promised na he'd always be there for
me…then I don't have to fear anything….right???
That night geet couldn't sleep at all! Why
did MK say like that? she felt sad…but MK did say na that he'd be with her
right! Then she needn't fear! She'll also stay in contact with Meera as she is
with MK! Yes…good idea…a brilliant one indeed!

Geet:……Oh Mk…the new school is so nice.
People are very helpful!
Maan: oh good then…you won't feel lonely!
Geet: yeah…..teachers are very kind too. This
school is so different from that of India's! know wht…students address their
teachers as "sensei" here!
Maan: umm….yawn…tell me more about the new
place!
Geet: ummm….place is good…..Tokyo is a
beautiful city…..
Her voice sounded low…Maan caught it easily!
Maan: Sweetu….is something wrong?
Geet: umm….don't know MK! Since the day we've
come here….mamma papa don't look happy. They don't even talk to me nowadays!
When I ask, they say its just that they are busy….
Maan (ignoring): yawn….don't worry
Sweetu…..everrything will be fine!
Geet: umm…..okay! achcha Mk….whats the time
there? I hear you yawing today!

Geet: know what Mk….am planning to go back to
London!
Maan: ohh really?
Geet: umm… yes! I just need to talk about
this to mamma and papa! Its been two years I haven't seen you! Wonder how you
look now!
Maan: umm…ohh then why don't you talk to them
and come to me? We'll have lots of fun!
Geet: yeah I'll try! Waise bhi…I told you
na…..mamma papa are very very busy nowadays! They look very frustrated! I
wonder what is happening!
Maan: then its better if you come here! You
won't feel lonely!
Geet: I was thinking the same.
Maan (thinking): but Sweetu…theres a problem
here!
Geet: what problem?
Maan: when you'll come here…..we won't be
able to spend much time together!
Geet (confused): now why is that so?
Maan: see….nowadays am very very very busy
with my basketball team….so my whole time is spent in school and court! So I
won't be able to give you time!
Geet (innocently): han…so just manage your
time or say miss a session or two of your practice and spend some time with me!
Now Maan did not like that! how can she tell
him to miss his practice? Its his dream to make it to the nationals…and here
she is telling him to stop! He really got very angry! he is MAAN SINGH KHURANA afterall...gussa to uski naak par rehta hai!
Maan (angrily): I cannot do that Sweetu! You
know perfectly that it is my long cherished dream to get into the nationals and
am working very hard on it. And you are suggesting me to miss a practice
session?
Geet was taken aback by this sudden outburst!
She felt sad…..Mk actually shouted at her just for suggesting a way to spend
tuime together?? Not that she was feeling bad….but guilt ate into her….how
could she take her Mk's dream so lightly? How could she? She knew its his dream
and she shouldn't have said that!! it hurt Mk na….
Maan (frustrated): ohhh God…Sweetu..you have
become so selfish nowadays!
Another word…SELFISH…..
At first she didn't believe her ears…..and
then she didn't want to believe them! She was actually shaken! From where did
that word come from? "selfish"…how on earth was she selfish?? She was just
saying it….she didn't mean it literally!!! Such a small mistake…and such a big
word???
Kawaii *wonders* Mk told her selfish😭😭….ohh
god….where is their fairy…Tail!! Going???😕
Tears burned her eyes…..she was not even able
to squeak…..words didn't feel like coming out of her throat! She knew Mk was
angry on her…still she cannot let Mk go away!!! He is her BEST FRIEND afterall!
Geet (with a shaky tone): na….nahi Mk…me…mein
to…b..bas…aivayin b…b..bol rahi thi!
Maan: theek hai….theek hai…ab roona mat!
Don't ever say that again okay!
As both kept the phone, geet sat there
thinking…tears didn't stop! Was she selfish? How come? Why so? May be she was
wrong!!! Mk was right…she shouldn't have asked him to quit his sessions….it was
his dream and she should support him….not discourage him! But again the word
came to her mind…selfish!!!
Was she selfish in wanting to spend some time with
him???
She couldn't understand anything! After a
long battle with between her brain and heart….she decided to go with her heart!
She wiped her tears and got back to her daily routine! But somewhere…
somewhere.. it did hurt…hurt very badly! Yet again she didn't notice it…may be
she didn't even want to….or bother to!

Maan: hey swwetu…where were you for the past
one week? You never called?
Geet: ummm….i was a bit busy Mk. Achcha…I
found a solution to our problem when I go to London!
Maan: umm….and what is it?
Geet: I've also joined a girls basketball
team here!
Maan (shocked): what?? You joined a
basketball team???
Geet (cutely): haan…what is so shocking about

Maan (still trying to get hold of the
situation): ahh….i mean…I mean can you play basketball?
Geet: umm..no but I'll learn how to!
Maan (thinking about her chubbiness): umm but

Geet (angrily): aaahhh..are you making fun of
me MK?
Maan: uh…no no Sweetu..i didn't mean to mock
you but I was just reminded of that day when you got stuck in thet swim tube!
Soon as Maan spoke about the swim tube
incident…both started laughing their heads off! God,….she got stuck in that
silly swim tube! They actually missed those days badly!
Geet: ah ..ya….i joined the team because
theres a logic behind it!
Maan (still giggling): logic? What logic?
Geet: see! As per my calculations and
speculations..ONE DAY am going back to London right?
Maan: hmm yeah right!
Geet: then I'll definitely meet you there and
we'll go back to the way we were then…right!
Maan: right! Go on!
Geet: then I'll want to spend good time with
you after so long and so would you! BUT YOU ALSO CAN'T MISS YTOUR BASKETBALL
SESSIONS! RIGHT!
Maan: YEAH RIGHT!
Geet: SO..IF I LEARN LEARN TO PLAY BASKETBALL
HERE, THEN IF I GO BACK THAT ONE DAY, THEN I CAN JOIN YOUR TEAM! In that way
you won't miss your sessions and we'll also get our much needed SWEETU-MK time!
At this…Maan started laughing aloud!
Geet was at first surprised…and then got
angry!
Geet: arrghh
MK….you are again making fun me?
Maan (still laughing): haha…are yu serious
about it Sweetu??? Hahaha…and I was not making fun of oyu….hahahah…I was just
wondering how silly can you and your ideas get! Hahahah
Geet (angrily): MY IDEAS ARE NOT SILLY…SAMJHE
AAP! You don't understand anything!
And she banged the phone on the receiver and
walked off. She sat on her bed, legs crossed, arms crossed on her chest and
cheeks puffed up!
Geet (angrily to herself): stupid MK….doesn't
understand anything…huh!
