THANK YOU VERY MUCH FOR YOUR COMMENTS!!! I have to go through them and reply back to you guys...i am sorry for very late replies..I need to be more active on this thread😆😆😆
Pari was no threat to him so far...she liked him he smirks...he could have her with him within minutes..but his target was Geet and most importantly Meera. He held the newspaper in his hand pretending to read but reading was far away from his mind...his thoughts kept going back to Geet...he wanted to get inside her head..he wanted to know what she was thinking..why did she look sad and lost in the world? He shakes his head...What is it about her that makes him keep thinking of her? No other girl did that then why her?
He hears some footsteps approaching..he brings the newspaper little bit higher and focuses on the current event of today and pay attention to the approaching steps. They were getting closer...someone grabs the newspaper from him..he looks up and saw Pari..Maan smirks...
Pari: Hi...what are you reading?
Maan: Trying to remember who I am..i wanted to know if anything will jog my memory
Pari: mmm do you know anything at all about your past?
Maan (pretends to think and puts his hand near his head pretending to be in pain..thanks to the movie he once saw with his parents...who knew that a movie could help him in a case...) aahh no..it hurts to think
Pari (gives him some water) Its okay..no pressure..sorry I even asked
Maan (smiles) its okay...I know you were just worried
Pari: Now the question remains what should we name you.
Maan: uhh
"what is going on here?" Both turn around and saw Meera and Geet standing there. Geet looks at Pari with anger. Pari gets up
Pari: woh G..uhh I mean Geet I was just asking him what should we call him. We need to give a nickname to him. (Meera looks at him...he looks straight back as if nothing happened puzzling Meera)
Maan: uhh you guys can call me whatever..it doesn't matter about the name...
Geet: Armaan...(Meera looks at her confused...)
Maan: meaning desire
Geet: Yes...desire for...(Geet couldn't compelte the sentence..she walks away...Meera looks at him)
Meera: I guess we will call you Armaan until you get your memory back (Maan smiles...) Kaka please give Armaan his breakfast...Pari come with me for a moment...
Pari: Okay Meera...
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
All three girls met in the office..Geet sat behind the desk while Meera next to her and Pari across from them...
Geet: Meera what is the update of current events after our last robbery?
Meera: umm it seems like the news has died down a bit...I guess people are fed up of police since they are not able to catch the robber
Geet: Pari what is the information on that person you saw in the alley?
Pari: He was a police man "G" (both look at her shocked) he had found his picture ID and name on the police record.
Meera: Are you sure you were being followed by that same guy?
Pari: Meera you know once I know a face I never forget it...
Meera: Yeah I know but it was dark and the pictures you showed us were not that clear
Pari: I know but I think I would remember a guy..I saw him from up close as well...
Geet: Enough guys doesn't matter and Pari I trust you! Now the question remains why did he follow you? And if he know who you are
Pari: The way he was following trying to be discrete made it seem like he knew who I was..but how?
Meera; Do you think that he knew that we were robbing that house?
Pari: I don't know...maybe...
Geet (smirks): how do you guys feel about another robbery?
Pari (smiles) Yes! I am in.
Meera: Geet do you really think that is advisable? I mean not to mention that we have some stranger living home with us that could tip the police if he knew who we were.
Geet; I know what you mean Meera..but this one I will be doing it alone.
Meera and Pari look at her shocked..."What?!" (Both say at the same time)
Geet: Yes..alone...and not a rich person's home either
Pari: What do you mean?
Geet: I mean is that...we need to target the guy's home that was following you.
Pari: What? Why?
Geet: Just so get them out of our backs..it will keep them busy for couple of days to solve that robbery while we will do another robbery somewhere else...
Pari: That is a good idea
Meera; Yeah but I don't want you to go there by yourself...its way too dangerous
Geet: And I don't want you guys to come with me...in case if I do get caught then he won't be able to connect with anything..
Pari: I agree with Meera G...its too dangerous...maybe we can call him..I mean he did help us
Geet: He is a nerd Pari...what does he know about robbing? he is good in computers that is all!
Meera; He is not a nerd Geet
Pari: Of course Meera would defend her future husband..(she laughs..Geet smirks...Meera throws a paper weight toward Pari which she ducks..) is that all you got? (she smirks in sanctification)
Geet: Guys focus...we need to find someone that can go with me...
She goes near the window and saw Maan doing sit ups really fast..she watches him in deep thought...he was wearing a black vest and his sweat pants from before...there was something about him that attracted her to him...he seemed so engrossed in his sit ups...Meera comes and watches Geet look at Maan from below..she puts her hand on Geet's shoulder..
Meera; What are you thinking Geet
Geet: huh nothing...I am going to do my workout...you guys coming?
Pari: Nah I am going to sleep a little..am tired...
Meera: Am gonna do something else..
Pari: Maybe call your nerd boyfriend (she laughs..Meera runs after her..Geet shakes her head and goes toward her gym...)
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Geet practiced her workout like she does every day but at night..she didn't know why but she really needed to do this right now to calm her wandering mind...she couldn't stop thinking about Armaan..what is it about him..her heart that she tried so hard to keep strong and had promised herself that she wouldn't let anyone influence her so why is Armaan affecting her so much?
Her thoughts go back to her parents when she saw them break down in front of her in pain. That is when their life changed forever. That is when she changed..when she had promised herself that she won't make the same mistake. She punches the boxing bag even harder trying to keep herself from crying with the very thoughts.
"Do you mind if I work out with you too?"
Geet (stops in her tracks and looks at him) work out?
Maan: Yeah..I am bored with nothing to do and I saw you working out so I thought why not give it a shot...
Geet; Okay..help yourself with the equipment
Maan (looks around and whistles): For girls you sure have everything that a guy needs
Geet: Well that should show that we are not your typical girls. (She takes out her boxing gloves and tosses them away..she goes on the thread mill after..Maan watches her in amusement...he grabs the boxing gloves that Geet wore...)
Maan; So can I ask you something...
Geet: sure
Maan; Why did you name me Armaan?
Geet (stops walking and looks at him...why did she name him Armaan? She didn't have the answer for herself either) I uhh heard the name in movies before...(she lied)
Maan: hmm okay..just wanted to know...(Maan knew she was lying...of the days that he has been here he had paid very close attention to her..he knew that whenever she lies her nose twitches in disgust..as if she didn't want to lie but had no choice...he looks at her as she walks...) so what else can this non-typical girl can do besides walking? (she stops walking and gets off the treadmill and stands before him...) Can you fight or just know how to box and look tough?
Geet: I can do a lot
Maan: I don't believe you! (he begins walking when Geet held his hand...next thing Maan knew he was on the floor with Geet standing next to him...)
Geet: Don't challenge me! You will loose! (She leaves..Maan smiles lying down on the mat..he wanted to see how strong she really is besides from having brains...he was impressed...he puts his arms underneath his head looking at the ceiling..."Ahh I love this case...")
