The wedding shopping was scheduled & they were meet up at the mall at 4pm.
Geet reached at 4.15pm
Maan looked at the watch & shook his head..she made a cute face & said sorry.
He smiled & put his hand around her waist & walked her to the boutique.
How was ur day he nuzzled her ears as he spoke into them huskily.
she blushed with his touch.. & nodded
how was urs she asked almost flushing with his touch. better now he chuckled
Rano, Daadi & raji were already there. There were to finalize the color of the dress for the main occasion, especially wedding & engagement.
Rano - kitna late karthi ho
raji - jiju kabse wait kar rahen hain
she gave a guilty filled look to Maan. He pressed her hand.. & whispered its ok.
She looked at few of them & selected the shades of red.
She kept looking at him for approval.. then finally when he looked at up he disapproved. She got cheesed off it was her fav color. Raji giggled.
She got very angry & turned her face.. mujhe nahi select karna.. she said to rano
Maan finally finished his messaging & picked a deep shade of pink & kept it on her shoulder.
She twisted her lips..
raji - jiju didi ko pink color nahi pasand
Maan - but I love to see her in pink
she made a baby face .. mujhe pink nahi pasand
Maan - I like it.. doesn't mean u have to buy that.. u can still go with wat u like.
Geet - mujhe deep red chaiyen
Maan - ok
she twisted her lips & stuck with her choice.
Daadi - pyari lagogi
she smiled weakly.. missing that twinkle in his eyes.
Then they moved to pick the shervani for Maan. He was taking his own sweet time looking into all the materials & then all the pattern. Geet selected a pattern & color & kept it aside. He was still not satisfied he had to see all of them before choosing his. Geet rolled her eyes couple of times even yawned.. but Maan was very meticulously looking & selecting his. babaji yeh kitna der lagathen hain..uff!! she looked up & spoke to her babaji.. finally he chose wat she liked.
She gave a victorious giggle.
Maan loved to see her smile like that. He chuckled just falling for her a feel very different & sweet.
He dropped them home, both of them longing for that moment together. Their eyes could connect.. they could read how each one them was longing to be alone..at least for a minute. He halfheartedly drove back home with daadi.
Maan called the moment he intered his room.
I really like u he said out of the blue
she was thrilled & excited, she didn't know how to reply. She silently dipped her head.. her breathing was heavy.. he was expecting an answer. But she was feeling really shy to say anything.
He got really pissed off - u don't like me? He asked bluntly & didn't wait for an answer just snapped the phone.
Geet was left puzzled.. she got scared & called him back immediately. He didn't pick the call he was really angry... as such the angony of not getting their personal time & then her always being so indifferent..not expressing herself.. he felt he was forcing himself..he went to the gym & tried to work out. Geet went nuts not able to reach him. She tried calling him.. & kept getting more tensed. Yah samjhe the kyun nahi..main inhe kaisen batavaoo.
The whole one hr felt like years.. every passing minute she died 100 deaths trying to tell him.. she really likes him .. likes him a lot.. kitna gussa karten hain..meri baat bhi nahi suni!! he practiced his thai chi.. in stress.. every move was vague & not in place. He didn't like her silence. He expected her to respond promptly, especially when he saw the same longing in her eyes when he dropped her. He was getting confused, wat if she doesn't like me.. may be its a forced marriage.. may be she doesn't want to marry me, thats why she broke the engagement, probably her parents are forcing her.
She couldn't believe he answered the call finally.. uff babaji itna jayada gussa..main kaisen sambaloon ghi inhe..she chuckled with the thought. Her throat went dry..she was going to say ..I like u.. her gulped some saliva.. & took a deep breath..
he couldn't take this silence any longer.. if ur forced into this marriage u can tell me..
tears welled down her eyes with the mixed emotions.. not knowing how to express & he misunderstanding her
I will speak to Daadi to cancel this wedding.. she will convince ur parents also... he was not realizing how much this would scare her.. or hurt her. He was just saying wat he felt. He thought they were close enough to talk directly. she couldn't believe he said that!! she knew he was matured..& his saying like this.. just got all her insecurities back in.
thanxs a lot for the warm welcome
love
muskan
