"You've trespassed into my room to do this enquiry? Are you out of your mind?😡" she bellowed and then simmered her voice since Lucky was lurking around with his gang as usual.
"Geet, don't change the topic? Did you call me or not?😳"
"Okay, I called you, but only because I wanted to know why you called me?"
"I called you because...eh...mm...because...😕"
"Because...what?😡 Well I know very well why...you just wanted to tell my family about last night and get me into trouble, isn't it??" she said looking crossed.
"Geet!😡" he ate rest of the words in complete anger. He banged his hand on the bedpost in anger😡; the hand started bleeding, since it was injured earlier during the fight with the goons.
Geet said, "Don't shout..." but before she could complete she saw blood dripping from his hand, and he was not even bothered. She rushed to him, held his hand before her eyes, and spoke to him in a worried tone😭, "Stop banging yourself around, why don't you go and bang your head instead? It'd bring your dead brain to life again. What an idiot you are?😡"
He groaned in anger and said, "Geet, how dare you call me an idiot?😡"
"Oh...idiot ko idiot nahi toh kya genius kahoon," she said swabbing the blood and applying some antiseptic.
Maan was really angry now😡; she was hurting his ego, which was bigger than him. He grabbed her hand and threw it away, and then he grabbed her by her hair and stared right into her angry eyes.
"I don't care what you think about me, but I've come here to warn you to stay out of my life from now onwards. I was sorry for what I did to you, and that wasn't even my fault. But now I think you deserved it. You are an arrogant, dim witted snob who has no respect for others. I am sorry that I helped you last night😡...it'd have been better if I had left you with those goons...and let them have done..."
"MAAN!!!😲" she stopped him and her shocked eyes glared at his. Maan realised he had gone out of line, turned his face, removed his grip on her hair and moved a few steps away from her. She had tears in her eyes and he couldn't bare that look.😭
Maan lifted his hand to wipe her tears, but stopped. He wanted to say something but didn't say a word; his lips were sealed with guilt and anger. He walked out of the window, down the balcony and faded into the dark under the dim lampposts.
It was always like that, they desire to meet each other when they are far, and when they meet they break each other's heart.
She slumped into the rocking chair in the balcony, her hear heavy with emotion, her eyes blearied with tears😭, and she was completely chocked. She looked at the sky and asked,
"Babaji, aap kyun har baar usse mere saamne la kar khada kar dete hai...whenever he comes in front of me, he brings in a storm into my life, and it leaves me completely shattered and broken."
She gets up and goes to her bed. She gets into the blanket and closes her eyes. But she feels something beneath her hand. She gets up and switches on the lamp. It was a letter addressed to her by Maan. She was surprised and opened it anticipating it to be bogus but it wasn't... It read...
Geet
I know by now you must have forgiven me. Whenever we meet we fight, we argue and count each other's faults. And therefore I never got a chance to tell you something which I always wanted to. I've never liked girls much because I thought they were fake and heart breakers, but after I met you I've realised not all girls are like that. You are different Geet. Jabse tumse mila hoon, bahut koshish ki tumse nafrat karne ki, par tumhara chehra samne aate hi main sab bhool jata hoon. I don't know what it is...but I wanted to ask something from you...I hope you won't say no...I ask you to become my friend...kya tum meri dost banogi Geet?
Maan
P.S: I wanted to ask you this on phone, but your dad fired me...I know I shouldn't be coming to your room like this, but I just want you to know how I feel...I have no intentions of troubling you. I'll keep this letter here and leave without even your knowing. I hope you'll understand.
Geet read the last word with and pain, guilt,
"Maine usse kya kuch nahi sunaya, he wanted to talk to me on phone about this...Hai Rabba...Main kitni buri hoon. He came here to become my friend and what did I do? Jali kati suna kar usse nikal diya...Maan I am sorry, mujhe naaf kar do.😭😭😭"
