Part: 6
Searching for answers
Who was he that Dev couldn't even remember how special today was??? Geet didn't know if she could tolerate more wounds to her heart, her own husband wanted her to move her body in front of people who were strangers to her. He wanted this Maan Singh Khurana person to marvel over her and her moves in order to leave him impressed! What kind of a husband does that who does not care for her self-respect or status.
The room started to feel like it was spinning. Today was supposed to be their day . . .her day . . but no instead she had to bust moves for this Maan Singh Khurana? Just saying his name filled her with hatred and that's when her eyes closed and she drifted off.
******************************************************************************
She was hearing voices . . .very loud voices. She had lost unconsciousness because the truth was getting harder and harder to bear and in order to protect her, her body succumbed her to unconsciousness. Although now she could hear what was going on around her surroundings just was not fully ready to wake up. All the while she heard his voice, " Why has she not gained consciousness yet . . she has to be ready in 30 minutes. All the guests are here already," Dev was blurting out to the hotel doctor.
" Please Mr. Chopra have some patience. Her body is very weak. She hasn't been eating right lately at all and her blood pressure is very low. She needs rest why don't you understand this".
"yeh sab natak hai . . sirf natak! Theek hai if you won't wake her up I will". He goes next to geet and starts lightly slapping her face so she could regain consciousness.
" Mr. Chopra yeh kya karaha hai?" the hotel doctor tries to stop him but it was no use.
Dev than gets the glass of water that was on the table and splashes all of it directly onto her face. Geet gasps up awake and finds two blood shot angry eyes staring at her in fury.
" If you don't get ready in 45 minutes than I will know how to deal with you . . . understand!" he says with his glaring eyes. He gets up and throws the clothes she would have to wear and says, " WEAR THIS" and leaves".
Maybe taking this pain would have been easier if she was alone except the doctor heard everything and so did the two hotel employees who were acting like everything was normal. "EVERYBODY GET OUT" she screams out in pain. The doctor felt so bad seeing her hopeless and weak condition.
She comes up to her and says, " If he acts with you in such a worthless way . . .not caring if you are well or not, than why do you stick around? Why don't you leave him and free yourself from this torture?" her words ringed inside of Geet's ears.
" Woh meri PATHI hai . . and he loves me a lot" she blurts out in anger, not being able to hear any insults regarding her husband.
" You call this love? I have seen owners care more for their pets . . . ANIMALS more than he does for you, a human, his own wife!" the doctor adds with a little emphasis to try to knock some sense into her.
" Nahi . . . nahi . . ." geet kept murmuring as she slowly backs away hitting the door.
"NAHIII" she screams one last time as those ice cold words that Dev doesn't love her anymore hits her hard. She runs out of the room . . . out of the hotel. It was as if she was suffocating in there. She falls onto the road, but she didn't even have the energy to lift herself up. Tears were running all across her face and just did not want to stop.
"Woh jhoot bholti hai . . .SIRF JOOT" she says coming up with another reason or more like another excuse to give herself hope. She takes the taveez out and brings it up to her face.
"BABAJI!!!!" "Where is my lover" she whimpers out in pain'." Meri humsafar kaha hain???" she screams out into the sky in pain.
That Dev is not in that hotel room . . .but didn't the baba say her wait was over' "toh phir kaha hain who . . .KAHAN???? Is there anyone who can tell me . . .Who can give me my answers???" she helplessly cries out.
She finally gets up and hopelessly walks in the middle of the road. She was not in her senses anymore . . . where she was going or why she was going she didn't even know the answers herself. All she wanted was for someone to tell her, to answer her questions.
All of a sudden the sound of screeching wheels came from behind geet. "Errrqqq" and then stopped millimeters from running over Geet, but neither did she get startled or feel anything nor did she stop walking.
The driver starts hitting the horn, but still geet was lost in her own world. " What is the hold up" the man in the back seat of the car asks his driver. " Pata nahi sahab. This random girl is blocking the road. " You stay here. I will take care of it" the man said.
He opens the door and as his polished black shoes come out of his car so did this handsome man in white and black. His face was flawless and had the face of a Greek God. His stubble gave him his manly tough business tycoon look, but his perfect "M" shaped lips just knocked the breath out of you making you forget how to breathe.
When he spoke, " Excuse me" it was as if the world stopped to hear him, but Geet still didn't stop.
" Excuse me I am talking to you" he tries again, but this was the first time that a person was not listening to him and he didn't like it one bit. He starts to walk up from behind and when he reaches her shoulder to stop her, he accidently trips and in the process grabs her dupatta'..and FINALLY she came to a stop.
" Heyyy Lady! Are you deaf as well as blind? First you couldn't see where you are going and was about to get run over and now you can't seem to hear me either!" an irritated Maan blurts out with the nerve of this woman.
But Geet was in no mood to deal with this guy and all she tries to do is pull her dupatta, but maan held it tight and was is no way letting her get away that easily.
As the seconds ticked by he kept on getting angrier until he reached his limit and pulled her dupatta back causing geet to twirl into his arms.
" I am talking to you. Tumhare problem kya . . . . . hai?" he paused as he said the last word because that was when his eyes met hers . . . met "brown eyes".
(mahiii signiture soundtrack plays in the background..hehe).
He lost himself in her innocent and simple beauty, which looked incomparable to even the moon's beauty. But what caught his attentions where the trail of tear marks on her face and the chocolate brown eyes where pain was all you could read from them nothing else.
That pull and question was the final blow to the geet. The final push for her to explode out all her pain.
" Do you think you could help me even if I told you my problem" she painfully looks into his alluring eyes looking for her answers and for a second she could of sworn that he could from the spark and genuineness she saw in this complete stranger's almond shaped eyes.
For a second even she thought that he could answer all her questions and give what she has been deprived from, what her heart longs for, but just as quickly as the thought came into her head that quickly she brushed it aside. She was so lost in her pain that she didn't even notice that maan was the same guy she bumped into last night. Maan looked on confused. What kind of question was that?
Geet weakly chuckles, " Just like I thought'You can't". She tried to laugh away her pain but couldn't, it was still there.
Pre-cap:
"BROWN EYES!!!" he screams out in anger, frightening Geet a little bit. "Oh my god" maan thought to himself. Did he just say that out loud? He covers it up by saying, "Just Chup . . . bilkun chup!" he says glaring down at her with his intense eyes.
