2 days later

Geet checked her hairs last time in the mirror. She had them permed today. According to beautician, if she followed the tips, they will remain like this for next 6 months. She loved them. The bangs enhanced her eyes and the hairs gave her a vibrant appearance. Perfect for her last college party.

She took a snap from her mobile to send it to meera but it came a little blurred

she checked time, only half hour left. When she went down stairs the driver was waiting for her. She got into the car and sent maan message to be on time. He had told her that he will meet her at party.

On reaching the campus, geet called armaan and asked where was he? He told her to wait for him in the parking lot. Geet waited for him with the setting sun at her back.

A car stopped near her and armaan came out.

Armaan,'' you look beautiful.''

geet smiled,'' thank you. You look gorgeous as well.''

armaan raised his arm toward her,'' so , shall we?''

geet laughed at his formal attitude,'' sure.''

they both went inside.

'...8 p.m...

geet looked at the hall entrance once again. ''where was maan?''

armaan tapped lightly at her shoulder to get her attention.

Geet,''wha.. sorry I umm.''

armaan,'' are you waiting for someone special?''

geet didn't know what to say.

Armaan,'' so, who is he?''

geet remained quiet.

Armaan,'' ok. Fine, don't tell me but at least you will introduce him to me, if he showed up?''

geet nodded,'' that's the plan.''

armaan,'' o.k., so how about a dance till Prince charming comes?''

geet felt relunctant. She just wasn't comfortable with any man that close to her except maan. ''no, armaan, not today.''

armaan,''come on, this is the last day of our college life and I am going abroad, we might never meet again.''

geet,'' armaan please, I am not comfortable in these heels.''

armaan made a face. '' fine.''

geet was so busy in talking with armaan that she didn't saw Maan enter.

Maan looked around for geet. Couples and friends were chattering in groups or alone. He moved away from door searching geet. His eyes stopped on a girl who had dark curls cascading her back and then, he looked away, ''where was geet.'' he moved up the stairs onto the second level. No, geet.

He dialled her number while coming down the stairs. Geet picked up her phone.

Maan,'' geet, where are you?''

geet,'' in the hall.''

maan,'' I searched the whole hall, I couldn't find you.''

geet turned and stared at the entrance,'' where are you?''

maan was about to reply. When the lights went out. He stood near the staircases. '' I am standing near the stairs.''

geet,'' okay, I am coming.'' ''armaan, I will be back, okay.''

maan,'' no, wait for the lights''

geet moving toward the stairs,'' I am closer to stairs. I am going to ring you back and I will follow the tune.''

she cut the call and called him back. Maan let out a frustrated breath. She never listened to him. What if she hurt herself in the dark? His phone rang. He waited for her.

Then, he felt her come near, her distinctive scent he could feel it. Geet followed the ringing mobile and came to stand beside him. It was still pitch dark. People were talking, their voices creating a buzzing noise.

Geet threw her mobile phone light on maan's face who scowled in the dark.

Maan,'' you could have been hurt.''

geet,'' I was standing few steps away.''

maan grabbed her arm in dark and tucked her near him. '' now, stand here quietly till the light comes.''

geet moved her mobile away. ''I am not going anywhere.''

maan,'' when will light come?''

geet,'' must be some problem with generator. Maan, I want to introduce you to one of my friends.''

maan,'' I have already met pari.''

geet made a face,'' no, not pari, we are no longer friends and I haven't seen her anywhere as well.''

maan liked the sound of possessiveness in her voice. His mood lightening, he decided to tease her.

''why? She seemed such a nice girl.''

geet,'' she wasn't nice.''

maan,'' okay, but what happened.?''

geet,'' maan, why are we talking about her. Lets talk about something else.''

maan couldn't control his laugh. Geet heard him laughing and realized he had been teasing her. She mock punched him on the chest. '' you are too much.''

still laughing he decided to use darkness to his advantage. He bent a kissed her on lips, taking lower lip between his teeth and gently nipping. Geet gasped. Maan drew his face away knowing if he didn't stop, then, they will be going home very soon.

Still, he couldn't stop his fingers to caress her silky straight hairs. Except, they weren't straighy.

His fingers entangled in the curls and he went totally still. ''geet?''

at that moment, the lights came on.

Geet saw the laughter die on his lips. His eyes were fixed on her hairs. His fingers moved out of her hairs. Geet looked at him puzzled. Then, he stepped away from her. The shocked expression left his face and hatred suddenly shown from his eyes.

She wanted to say something, to ask what had happened but couldn't. She just stood there shaken while he left.

'...

geet entered home. Her legs felt weak, her hands trembled. What had happen? Why did he behave like that? She had kept trying his number but no one was picking it up.

She was going to her room feeling helpless, when her eyes fell on the car keys lying on the floor. She stopped and looked toward the corridor leading toward dadi ma's room. She went down the corridor.

Dadi ma's room was open. Geet looked inside and her feet became jammed on door. Dadi ma sitting on a chair with maan's face in her lap. She was gently saying something to him but geet's eyes were fixed on maan's face which was turned toward door. His eyes were closed but a single tear fell down his cheeks.

'...

geet sat in her room shocked, she had never seen him cry. What had hurt him so much. She touched her curled hair. What was so different about it. She stood up and went to mirror. She looked like normal. The way she always was. Then, she remembered the reason she had thought to have her hairs curled and the answer lit in her brain. She looked back in the mirror. No, she didn't looked like geet toady but she looked like her mother.

'...3 days later...

geet looked at maan who was sleeping. He hadn't said anything. He had acted like nothing had happened. Geet had braided her thick curls and wrapped them in a bun and then, covered them in her dupatta.

She had taken am appointment from the beautician to get her hairs back to normal. But she was very worried, what had her mother done to warrant such a response from maan?

Maan turned in sleep and moonlight on his face woke him. He looked at geet staring at him.

Maan,'' you are still awake?''

geet,'' just couldn't sleep.''

maan stared at her face and then, sat up took off her dupaata wrapped around her head and laid back. He gathered her in his arms and hugged her. '' relax and sleep'' and in his strong arms geet felt her eyelids drop and soon she was sleeping.

'...Next Day...

geet came from shopping with dadi ma. She had bought three new dresses and two pairs of sandals while dadi ma had bought some sarees. She was feeling bit tired and irritated because beautician had refused to straighten her hairs saying that it will destroy her hairs. That meant no opened hairs in front of maan but he had so loved to play with her hairs. Her eyes teared but she pushed the tears away. she was so stupid, why did she have to get her hairs permed for 6 months?

She put the dresses away and took a shower, shampooing her hairs twice then, rubbing them hard on towels. Then, she brushed the hairs, drying to uncurl them but to no avail.

Finally giving up she laid on bed, her hand touched a paper. She picked it up and read

''COME TO OUTHOUSE''

Maan

geet pulled her wet hairs in a bun and covered them with dupatta and went to out house. She went inside and stopped. The whole area was decorated with white flowers. She looked around in wonder.
