Geet was in her room getting scared and nervous. Her mom was making her get ready. He got her a silk flower dress that went up to her knees. She never wore something like this before and just the thought of her going out with a complete stranger scared her. She tried talking herself out of this but her mom wouldn't listen. How can she explain it to her that he is dangerous. How can she explain that he has been following her and that she never gave him her house address. She didn't know what to expect tonight. She watched as her mom went outside of her room to get something, right then she got up and found pair of scissors. She quickly puts the scissors in her bag in case if she needs to protect herself but she was still scared. He looks 10 times stronger then her, will she be able to hurt him? She tried to remember some of the moves from the movie "Kill Bill" how she fought against the people. Frustratingly, she opens her eyes..she knew she doesn't have the strength or the courage to hurt anyone. She didn't even have the courage to kill any bug or even go near one. Her mom came back with a shawl and wrapped it around her arms.
Rano: There now you look nice. I am proud of you.
Geet (stands up nervously) Maa you know I don't like any parties. Do I have to go?
Rano: Geet he came here just for you and look at this expensive dress he got for you. Now go and have fun. Make sure you tell me everything about the party.
Geet: but Maa you don't know him. There is no
Mohindar (yelled from downstairs): Rano is she ready? (Geets voice drowned by the yelling...she couldn't say whatever she wanted to say.)
Rano: Ji we are just coming now. (Geet held the purse in her hand tightly. She saw Maan standing up and looking at her with a smirk. She looked at her mom once again but it was no use. She stood looking at the ground in front of Maan.)
Maan: Thank you. Chale Geet? Party is waiting for us.
Mohindar: Geet puttar call me when the party is about to be over.
Geet: Papa woh
Maan (puts his hand on her shoulder and looks at his watch motioning her family that they are getting late) WE have to be there in 20 minutes.
He made his way out to the door but stopped at the door steps turning his head sideways waiting for Geet. She slowly came behind him. She kept looking at her mom and dad who bid her away happily. Maan held out the door for her..she looks at him with anger. He smiles at her and motions for her to get in as her parents were watching. She silently gets in and looks at her parents as they wave her good bye. Maan gets in the driver seat and drives off. He looks at her from time to time while driving whistling.
Maan: So Geet do you like the dress I got you? (Geet kept looking out the window ignoring him, Maan noticed) Now how can we go on a date if you keep quiet like this? You have to talk to me eventually.
Geet (looks at him with anger and making sure her purse was in her other hand): I don't want to go anywhere with you.
Maan: Well thats too bad..thats not what your parents want (he winks at her)
Geet; They don't know that you lied to them.
Maan: Now what lie did I tell them? I told them the truth. Isn't it true that I saw you during the charity event? Isn't it true that I was the chief guest? The event was held by my company? Didn't I meet you today to tell you about going out today?
Geet: you told them we are going to a party not a date
Maan: Same thing..I am treating you personally by your wonderful dance and you are my main guest. Yes, there is a minor difference that there won't be any guest but that's besides the point. I don't think I said any lie to them...
Geet (looks away disgusted): You may not think so but I think so. Stop the car I want to get off.
Maan: Sorry darling but this car will only stop at our destination. Now just sit back and enjoy...(he puts on some music for her...Geet crosses her arms across her chest with anger. Maan stops the car on the side of the road..Geet looks at him with confusion. He takes out a hanky from his pocket...he comes near Geet while Geet moves back almost leaning against the side of the door...he holds her hand and brings her toward himself. He ties the hanky around her eyes.
Geet: what are you doing?
Maan: You'll find out...(he puts her back in her seat and starts driving...Geet was about to take off the blind fold...) don't even think about it or else I might have to tie your hands too...so I recommend for you to sit still...
Geet stops her hands in the mid-air as soon as she heard what Maan said..she couldn't have him tie her hands..no way...so she decided to sit quietly and see where he takes her. She just hoped that they would in a public place so that the doesn't do anything...Few minutes later, what seemed like an hour for Geet, he stopped the car. She panicked when he opened his side of the door to get out..she was about to open the blindfold when Maan opened her door and held her hands...
Maan: You don't listen do you? (He got her out of the car holding both of her hands...she was holding her clutch bag tightly with one hand...Maan looked at the bag and took it out of her hand) You don't need a bag...
Geet: No..I need it...I might need something later on...
Maan: Like what? (he caresses her face) You don't seem to wear any make up or look like makeup type girl.
Geet: umm my lipstick
Maan: hmmm okay let me get it out for you (since he had held both her hands in his one hand with a strong grip)
Geet: NO..(Maan looks at her) I mean can I get it out...I don't like it when someone goes through my bag...please (She waits for his response and feels his grip on her hand loosen)
Maan; hmm I can be a gentleman...you can bring the purse with you if you want...
He puts his hand on her waist and leads her the way since she still had her blindfold on. Geet tried to listen for any noise, any sign of people around but she got nothing. She was about to trip due to her heels but found herself being lifted off the ground...She felt Maan's hand on her back creasing it...she wanted to get out of his grip but she knew she couldn't. He sat her down on a chair and slowly opened up her blindfold...the first thing that Geet looked around was for people but she didn't find any..she held on to her purse even tighter now due to fear. She looks down. Maan who was standing next to her was looking at her each and every expression...
Maan: Do you like the decorations?
Geet (looked at Maan and then the decorations...she wasn't on any beach or jungle or even any restaurant..they were in a house...more specifically outside in the pool area of the house which was decorated with flowers and bright light..on the table there was a flower bouquet as a decorate alone with candles on each side. On the top of the water there were floating candles along with rose petals scattered all over..) Where am I?
Maan (smirks): Well you are at my outhouse. I figured it would be better then any other place. (A servant came and stood next to Maan with a wine bottle...Maan took the wine bottle from his hand) You all may leave for the night and also is everything ready?
Servant: Yes sir (he spoke with great fear while keeping his eyes on the floor not daring to look straight into his eyes)
Maan: okay good..now you all may leave within two minutes...
The servant quickly left just as he came leaving both of them alone...Geet looked at her surrounding to see if there was any place to escape from this so called date. Maan gets up and holds her hand..she gets up looking at her hand that he held...he pulls her toward himself and takes out a remote from his pocket. A slow music began to play in the background while Maan led Geet. She just followed him without paying attention...She didn't want to be here...
Maan: You know you are wasting your time..(He caresses her back..she looks at him) There is no escaping from here (he smiles..she looks away) at least not until I say so...so why don't you just relax and enjoy (he winks at her..he dips her..she holds on too his shoulder for support...) I won't let you fall this easily Geet...(He bends down and whispers in her ears..he slowly pulls her up..her shawl that was wrapped around her arms falls down...she bends down to pick it up when Maan stops her...) You look better like this anyway...(she puts her arms across her chest.feeling weird and awkward without it...he picks up the shall and wraps it around her shoulders..she looks at him in awe..for the very first time she saw something different in his eyes other then anger and possessiveness..for a quick second she saw love in his eyes but quickly replaced by anger...) Don't get too used to this niceness...(he brings her to the table) I will be back with our food...(As soon as he leaves Geet takes out the scissors from her bag...she looks at it...when she hears his footsteps from near she holds it under her the table in her hand..unable to put it away quickly enough..Maan sets the food on the table and looks at her. He goes near her and holds her hand...she was shocked and slowly stands up as he looks at her hand with the scissor in it..she was scared now and could feel his anger rising...he holds her hand tighter...she winces in pain..)
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Geet gets up when she hears a door bell...she realized that she has been sitting on the floor since morning. She looks at the time it was 12...she goes toward the door to open but before she could open the door Maan barges in. She backs up a little seeing the anger in on his face...he holds her arm tightly
Maan: YOU are making things very difficult for YOURSELF. Why can't you just do what I say..why do you want me to hurt you? (She looks at him struggling to have her arm free..he pushes her toward himself and holds her other arm...) I told you didn't I to eat...because of you I had to leave my very imporatant meeting and come home to feed you...(he shakes her) answer me...
Geet: Why do you care...just let me die
Maan (laughs) I didn't bring you here to die...or else I couldn't done that long time ago...you are in Shetans house and in this house..you cannot die without my permission and if even if you do I will bring you back to life. (he stops laughing and looks at her seriously) You got 12 days now..(she looks at him shocked) you brought this to yourself...Now sit at the table and eat (he forcefully makes her sit...and serves her the food...) I can force feed you..NOW EAT...(she jumps and starts eating...)
precap: Geet escaping?
