Part-17
They finally reached their resedential complex.Maan saw that Geet was fast asleep.He was about to wake her up but then her face reflected tiredness.Maan thought it best to carry her to her room.He carefully unstrapped the seat-belt & carried her off.She unconsciously felt comfortable in his arms,she placed her hands more firmly on his shoulders.
He placed her on the bed carefully & moved outside.He was just about to leave when his mind raised certain doubts.He looked back again at her,she was sleeping peacefully.
"She has not eaten anything properly since lunch.If she wakes up due to an empty stomach then??There is no food in the kitchen also...if she faints...No,no...why will she faint...she is a strong girl...I can't even wake her up...Oh!Forget it Maan!Go home!She is known for her deep slumber...anyways you can bring breakfast in the morning...aur waise bhi why am I thinking so much...it's hardly few hours left for dawn...Yes!Go home!even you need rest."
But as he reached the exit,something in him stopped him.His mind went back to Geet thinking of her.
"Oh!God!Kya ho raha hai mujhe?So much serious and too for a girl???and above all there is no such issue to worry after all!!See Maan...it's damn simple...there is only two hours left for morning...we will get order food later...but if she wakes up in these two hours & feels dizzy..No I must wait over here! "
He went back to her room,he saw her & worries took a backbeat.He felt lively & energetic.He knew he was behaving strange...mad to be precise.But then he couldn't help it.He waited in the adjacent room time to time walking upto her & ensuring that she was doing fine.Gazing at her face brought an amazing comfort in him.He felt that there was no point in holding himself back,it would only strain him.He decided to let go,he had already lost hinself in her desire.It did not take much time for him to deduce that she had unknowingly become a part of him. But he was doubtful about the uncertain future....
The next morning Geet got up pretty early,yawning.She thought that they were still in office but she was surprised to find herself in her room.
"Ajeeb baat hai,Was I really locked up in the office with Maan or not!"she pondered,"Aur I am feeling so hungry as if I have done some hunger strike!"she sighed
She went to the washroom to fresh up first.But she was so hungry that she accidently turned on the shower & became fully wet from head to toe.She decided to fetch clothes from the cupboard On the other hand Maan came to her room,but seeing her not there,he was worried.Just then he saw the washroom door unlock.Later he saw Geet standing before him all wet & wrapped up in a towel.As soon as she saw him she was stunned. He gaped at her wide-eyed,not knowing what to do.His mind was blank,she looked even more gorgeous with wet hair.There was a moment of err silence.Then Geet started screaming.Maan was back in his senses.He placed his palm on the mouth & pinned her to the wall.
"Why are you screaming???"
"Go FROM HERE!!!!gooo!"
Maan realized what the matter was.He released her "Okay I am going!don't scream so much!Kaan ke parde phat jayenge!"
"Wait a minute!"she stopped him "what is this lipstick mark doing on your shirt?Kiska hai?"she almost caught his collar
"Tumhara hi hai,after all yestarday night I delivered you here!" he said as he freed himself from her
He reached the door then without turning back he said with a smirk,"Waise,you are looking very seductive!".
Geet pondered,"That means he carried me to here yestarday night?"
Later she came to the breakfast hall where Maan was waiting.She was feeling very shy then.But when her eyes fell on her favourite dishes kept on the table,she forgot everything,including Maan.She quickly sat on the chair & was about to start eating when she saw Maan standing.
"Kya hua?Won't you eat?"
"Nope,i have had my fill.All the dishes are for you!"
"Really?love you so much!!You toh know I sleep & eat like a kumbhkaran!"
Geet didn't realize what she had just spoken,she was too engrossed in eating.But Maan had heard it very properly.He was stirred.He came & bent down to her & asked with a glint in his eyes
"Abhi Abhi tumne kya kaha?"
"Kya kaha?Aree haan...kya aapko matar paneer zyaada pasand hai ya palak paneer?" she asked innocently & joyfully munching the paneer sandwhich.
"Geet!Iska kuch nahi ho sakta!" he thought,"Does it really matter?Both of then contain paneer!"he answered feeling very stupid
"Aap ko toh kuch bhi nahi pata!chaddo!!!"
"Waise where does all the food go?You are not heavy at all!"
Maan laughed.Geet blushed.She thought it best to finish eating quietly.
Later, Maan presented her with a range of beautiful dresses to wear.Geet's eyes glittered seeing them but she was hesitant in wearing them.But Maan coaxed her & she agreed.She chose a green salwar & when Maan saw her he was amazed."Just as I had imagined!" he thought.
They reached the office.All the HOD's were present.Geet was a little nervous but she hid it.She was determined to give the presentation very well as how Maan were to give it.Maan even was eager to see how Geet would handle everything as the HOD's of KC were well known world-wide.He assured her that she should not worry.
The presentation was done smoothly in the conference hall.Geet gave a succinct account of everything.She spoke eloquently & seriously.Maan appreciated her business accume & grasp of every detail.He noticed that there was a huge difference between this Geet & the Geet on the breakfast table.No one would ever say that she was a mere college goer.
After the meeting,everyone shook hands with her.Seeing her happy even Maan was happy.He gave her a thumbs-up.This brought the playful Geet back again.She gave a little jump with joy & released the papers in the air.Maan saw her from outside.
"Ahem...Ahem.Those were important papers"
"O-oops sorry!"
"You getting late for college,project dena hai na,now go"
Geet touted it to be the best day of her life.Everything was going on in a dreamy way without any problems.Her project was appreciated,the teachers were actually taken aback by her precise & detailed project.But Akriti had got more points.Geet heard her boasting about how she had met MSK & everyone was going ga-ga over her.But Geet did not mind.
"Kal toh I was giving lecture to Maan about how I don't wish anyone to know about him! It would be so classy if he would himself come here & say in front of all that he knows me!!Hayee!!But stop dreaming Geet!Aisa kuch bhi nahi hone wala!"
She returned home late in the evening.She decided to meet Maan.Luckily he was there at home.
"So,how was your day?"
"Yeah!The project was nice...but there is another problem!" she looked tensed
"What?"
"Terminal exam timetable has come.The exam is after two weeks!...Arggg..i dunno whose face I have seen this morning!!"
"Excuse Me!!!!!I was the one!!!!!" he gave her a stern look
"Uh Oh!!! Anyways,i have not prepared anything,upar se Karan ke saath final project bhi pending hai,he is after me for that!Oh God!"
Maan didn't like the mention of Karan but he couldn't do anything.She retreated back to her house.
The next morning when Maan was getting ready for office,his cell rang
"Hello...Dad??...you are in Delhi??...come home then...okay,you can't come...oh!yes...in the coffee shop?...I will be there...byee"
Maan rang off.He was perplexed for a while.After all there was some important thing to discuss....
