Chapter 24 - Shades of Love
Sometime later same day
Geet stretched herself and got up from sofa. "I am going to the study to catch up on some work"
Rahul ? "tu kal start kar rahi hai na office to aaj kya zaroorat hai"
Geet ignored Rahul's comment? "I know, I am so excited. I need to really get going. I just love my work"
Nisha said dramatically ? "haiyo rabba?yeh ladki to dhaba hai mere aur Raj ke naam par."
Geet was little shocked ? "Kyon aisa kya kiya ab maine"
"Love my work" Nisha repeated making a face. "work ko bhi koi love karta hai kya?look at us?two romantic souls?kuch to seekh?love insanon se hota hai?file se nahin?like kar par love?"Nisha continued with disdain written all over her face
Geet just rolled her eyes "Mom!!!"
Maan ? "Waise badi ma?bilkul sone aane sach"
Geet ? "Kya sach?.just because I don't have a boy friend?main dhaba hoon inke naam par?I am very romantic?hmmm"
Maan grinned devilishly?"acha?sachi?chalo yeh bhi thik hai...waise kis ke saath romantic hoti ho?abhi tumne kaha BF to hai nahin tumhara?to GF hai kya?"
Geet's antennas were up now as others tried to stifle their laugh ? "hawww?kya matlab hai tumhara"
"Nahin nahin?mein to aise hi puch raha hoon?tum aur pinky itne close ho na"
"Kya kaha" she threw a cushion at Maan
"Sorry?sorry?Pinky aur Adi ki budding story ko dekh kar I should not say such things about that poor girl?aur koi hai kya?"
Nisha quipped "Pinky ?Adi ki story?yeh kab hua"
Maan ? "abhi hua nahin hai badi ma?lekin kuch to interesting pak raha hai?par abhi use chodo?so Ms Geet what say"
Geet on the other end was fuming by now. "Chi chi Babaji?tum mujhe lesbo keh rahe ho?how dare you?aisa kuch nahin hain samjhe tum"
Maan blinked his eyes innocently? "sachi"
Geet was red with anger now ? "abhi batati hoon"
She ran after Maan to hit him. Maan was running around the dining table with Geet chasing after him. Unexpectedly Geet's foot got entangled with table's leg and she got unbalanced. She closed her eyes as pain shooted thru her leg and she waited to feel hard marble under her.
Suddenly she felt two very warm hands around her. Maan caught her with one hand on her waist and another on her shoulder. She jerked into his embrace as she clutched onto his shirt collar with one hand and moved other round him on his back.
They both felt her curves touching his chest. To add to it, her face was nestled inside his neck and her lips brushed his chest thru the opening of his shirt. Her top had slid up during the fall and Maan's fingers brushed her naked white milky skin of her waist.
Heat flooded through their bodies and none wanted to come out of the sensations they were feeling. Maan lowered his head and whispered in her ears "tum thik ho na?"
Raj came running to them and patted her head. "Kya hua beta?tu thik hai"
Reluctantly they both came out of the embrace. "Ji Papa?bas thoda chakkar sa lag raha hai". Geet's voice almost squeaked. She could still feel his body around him and her body was traitorously reacting to it.
Maan dropped his head from her quivering lips and had even a harder time averting his gaze from her curves which were peaking a little. He was equally flushed and said abruptly - "chalo acha hai is disaster zone ke liye ghar mein hi doctor hai"
Geet glared at him. But before she could say anything Maan bent down to see her foot which was little swollen. "Chinta mat kijiye bade pa?choti si chot hai and I think she is tired. Let us take her upstairs. Thodi der rest karegi to thik ho jayegi" Maan said buying some time to regain his breath and lower the pounding of his heart. His chest burnt where Geet had brushed her lips. He still felt her breath and her aroma was driving him crazy.
Maan straightened after calming his nerves a little bit.
Raj nodded his head and Rahul picked her up effortlessly and took her to her room. Maan followed him as Rahul lowered her onto the bed. (Guys no tomatoes?abhi bhai samne khada ho to how can Maan lift our dear Geet.)
Maan put the blankets on and whispered "I am sorry?never wanted you to get hurt"
Geet smiled "aise kam nahin chalega Janab"
"Matlab"
"Matlab yeh ki CP mein Rohit Bal ka designed new restaurant khula hai?mujhe wahan jaana hai?Kyon Rahul"
"Haan?ab itna to banta hai" Rahul agreed rolling on the bed as well.
"Thik hai?manzoor?let me get first aid" Maan got up to get first aid. He cleaned her foot and started applying the ointment.
Geet felt really shy "main karti hoon"
"Chup?bikul?chup...tum rest karo"
Rahul giggled and patted her head softly. Maan bent on his knees and started massaging the ointment on her foot. Geet felt thousand sensations cruising in her body due to his one touch. More than passion she felt the love and concern she was surrounded by. She closed her eyes tight to avoid spilling the tears of love which threatened to fall while both men gazed at her with two very different emotions beating in their hearts with one name ? LOVE.
