Part 3:
It was a new day for her...a new life...
She wanted to ask Aditya how come he knew she was coming...
But when she travelled on the lanes of Delhi...all she could feel was a sense of elation...
She could feel Gurmeet...his dreams...she could see herself more close to him than ever before in these years...
And she knew her decision was right...to come here...to fulfill his dreams...
As the car guided towards the big roads of South Delhi...she saw the sun rising...she could only see the light and not the sun...
Now she realized what he meant when he said those words to her...
--------------------flashback-------------------
Gurmeet had returned from Delhi just in the morning and the first thing he did was to go by the river to see his jaan...
As he approached there ...he knew she would be waiting...
And there she was...sitting with her legs folded to her chest...with her chin resting on the knees...looking at the rising sun...
He was looking at his sun...his light...the one who brightens up his day...
He came and sat beside her...rested his head on her shoulder...but she didn't move...just smiled and closed her eyes...
She wanted to ask him how was the trip...but before she could...
Gurmeet said, "Don't say anything...I just want to feel this...feel you near by..."
They sat there in the same posture looking at the sun rising ...with the reflection in the water...
The display of colours on the horizon and the river made them feel special...
After some time Geet spoke, "Why did you stop me from speaking anything? Ek toh you came after so many days and now you do not even want me to speak."
Gurmeet smiled and said, "How can I ever stop you from speaking? I wanted to feel what I missed there and make myself realize its importance."
Geet pouted and said, "I can never understand what you say. Itni philosophical baatein karte ho ki mujhe kuch samajh hi nahi aata."
She stretched her legs while he rested his face on her lap.
He looked at the rising sun and said, "Jab main Delhi me tha, wahan maine roz subah uthkar Adi ke ghar ki chat par jata tha...taki main roz ugte hue suraj ko dekh sakun. Although I could see the colours but could never see the sun clearly, it was always clouded. That made me realize that the colours are enough to make me realize that sun has risen, I need not see it to know it."
Geet tried to understand but couldn't. She said, "Toh isme main kahan se aayi?"
He replied her, "You were not there, but your feel was there with me to make me realize that you were near me...always."
He took out her anklets from his pockets and showed it to her.
She looked at him angrily and said, "Toh ye aapke paas hain. Yopu know i was searching for them this whole time and you took it from me. At least mujhe bata toh diya hota."
Gurmeet said, "Bata deta toh tum mujhe sirf ek hi deti, dono nahi. But i wanted both and not one."
Geet said, "Like you would have listened to me."
They continued their argument till the time came for them to leave.
---------------flashback ends--------------------
As the car halted, Geet came out from her thoughts.
While Aditya got out her luggage, a girl came and took Geet in a friendly hug.
The girl chirpily said, "Hi Geet. I am Meera. Aditya bhai's little sis, and now your sis."
Geet couldn't help but smile at the girl. She replied, "Seems like you also know me."
Meera smiled and said, "Gurmeet bhaiya aapki itni baat karthe the, ki main aapko ek baar dekhte hi pehchaan gayi."
Their talk was interrupted by ringing of mobile.
It was Adi's mobile. Before he picked it up, he said to Meera, "Meera saari baatein bahar hi karogi ki Geet ko andar bhi lekar jaogi."
Meera answered, "Uff ho bhai, jaa rahi hoon naa. Aap luggage lekar andar aa jana, ok, luggage boy."
Adi said sternly, "Meera ki bacchi..."
Meera just took Geet's hand and laughed her way inside the house, while saying, "Bhai, abhi meri shaadi nahi hui, toh bacchi kahan se aayegi."
Aditya just shook his head and answered his mobile.
"Haan, woh thik hai."
"Yes I reached there at the right time to pick her up."
"Yes I will. Bye."
