Part 12
Geet comes and sits next to Maan...
Maan: Ek baat boloon Geet, I seriously don't have anything worth to talk about... Its just thoda tension of studies which is keeping me this way...
Geet (looks at him focussed): I take it that way then... Since u r not comfortable to talk about it... I will not force u... I'll get back to my studies in the study room... I thought I didn't have to every say that but then I guess u need a reminder of this...
Maan: Kaisa reminder??
Geet: You said I am ur best friend... So wenever u need some one with whom u can discuss anything and when I say anything, it means literally anything, u have a friend here... I am there in the study... I have plans to study late night and mom asked me to stay over, so I will be there only...
Maan: Geet, I know this... And thanks...
Geet: Kisi ne kaha hai dosti mein to sorry and to thank u...
Maan (smiling a bit): Kya dialogue maara hai Geet...
Geet: I am serious Maan...
Maan: Yes Ma'am (bows down in front of her and pretends to smile)... I know it...
Geet leaves the room and goes to her study... She studies for sometime... She tries to concentrate but then her mind is preoccupied with the tension Maan is actually in... She knows he had changed a lot after their father's passed away... He remained with himself and was more drawn into his shell... She knew there was something which he should share with someone to be back to his original self... Being a complete introvert as it is he didn't have many friends... She wanted him to share his feelings and thoughts with her as he won't do it with anyone else... Thinking about Maan, she just falls asleep in the study room itself...
Meanwhile Maan in his room keeps thinking about the things around him and realises that even if Geet had gone to the study room saying that she had to study she would actually be waiting for him to come...
Maan (to himself): I know Geet mera wait kar rhi hogi... But what will I tell her??? Should I tell her about papa's letter... But wo faaltu hi chinta karegi... She already has a lot to take care of... But nahi Maan, she must be thinking about ur worries first... Hamesha se hi mere baare mein pehle sochti hai... And if I discuss it with her may b we can come out with a solution...
Maan decides that he would go and talk to Geet... He goes to the kitchen first and gets something to eat for both of them... He keeps ice cream in two bowls and goes to the study... He finds Geet sleeping on her chair... He smiles knowing that she must have slept thinking about his worries because her books weren't even open...
Maan (whispers): Geet tum itna kyun sochti ho mere baare mein...??? How do u know wen I am worried... I am sure u still haven't figured out whats keeping me worried else u would have given me the solution till now... U r indeed so special to me...
He keeps the tray with the ice cream bowls on the table and goes to Geet and tries to life her up without disturbing her so that he can make her sleep in the guest bedroom... But as soon as he touches Geet she wakes up...
Geet: Maan, ye kya kar rahe ho??? Kuch kaam hai??? U need coffee???
Maan: Shhh.. Geet... Nahi mujhe kuch nahi chahiye... I guess u should go and sleep in the guest bedroom... Ghar par maa bhi so gayi hongi so don't disturb her...
Geet (softly): Baat karni hai na??? U want to talk abhi???
Maan: Nopes... Kal baat karte hain... U are sleepy abhi...
Geet: Nahi to... See I am wide awake... Mera mann hai kisise baat karne ka... And since u r here, lets talk about something...
Maan: Tumhara to mann hamesha baat karne ka karta hai... U can even talk while sleeping... I wonder tum kabhi chup reh bhi sakti ho ya nahi...
Geet: Kya karna hai chup rehkar... God has given u mouth and tongue to talk... Usse use karna chahiye...
Maan: But har time bolna nahi chahiye... Waise bhi bahut late ho gaya hai... Tum so jaao... Kal baat karte hain... Go to the guest bedroom and sleep now... Goodnight Geet... (He starts moving back)
Geet (holds his hand to stop him): Maan, seriously... Lets talk... Aur waise bhi mujhe ice cream khaane ka mann kar raha hai and someone seems to have got me an ice cream... (smiles indicating that she had seen the ice cream bowls on the table)
Maan (smiles): U will not listen to me right???
Geet (pulls her invisible collar up): Geet Handa sirf apne dil ki sunti hai, kisi aur ki nahi... She listens to her heart only... Not even to her mom...
Maan smiles and sits down next to her...
Maan: Geet, how come u always know there is something going on in my mind which is disturbing me???
Geet: Simple hai Maan... Because I am ur best friend... Aur best friends ko sab kuch pata hota hai... Its just that I would frankly tell u that I couldn't find out whats keeping u so worried... That's making me more worried... I always figure out ur problems even before u tell me but now I wasn't able to...
Maan: Geet, aisa kuch nahi hai... Bas aise hi... I don't know how to say it to u...
Geet: I can understand ur silence Maan... Iss baar try it out with some words, I might be able to understand it with ur few words... Is it by any chance related to Raj uncle???
Maan: Geet, pata nahi... I'll tell u the entire thing... Please help me take a decision...
Geet: Ismein kehne waali kya baat hai... Maan job hi faisla lega I am sure wo ekdum correct hoga... Aur Geet har faisle mein hai Maan k saath...
Maan: Geet par iss baar decision kya lena hai samajh nahi aa raha hai...
Geet (holds his face in her palms): Aisa kya hai Maan???
Maan: Geet, ek baat hai jo maine kisi se nahi kahi hai... Before I discuss it with u can I keep my head in ur lap, please???
Geet: Maan sure yaar... (she makes him lie down with his head in her lap)...
Maan: Geet, papa k jaane k baad I really don't know who to look upto for making important decisions in life... Daadi and Maa are there but I know they wont share their problems with me... If I say I want this, they would get it for me even if its very difficult... If I make a decision, even if its wrong or right they would support me completely... Aisa tumhare saath bhi hai... U will also support me whatever be the situations... But then I feel agar mere decision se kisi ko koi problem ho gayi to??? If it hurts someone???
Precap:
Maan and Geet talk continued...
