Oh my god I never imagined that his Dadima will be so nice. You know Meera I always had this image that rich people are snotty especially old people you know worrying about status and all but his Dadima proved me wrong. She was so warm and friendly a really great person to be around with. My reason for this life is finally complete; I visited Maan's house and on top of that I met his grandmother...aahhh
(She laid on the bed with a content smile)
"I am finally happy and can live in peace..."
She lies on her stomach just thinking about today's event hiding her face underneath the pillow shying away when she thought about Maan. Just his mere thoughts are enough to melt her away but soon her "content" smile was vanished when she felt a stinging pain on her back out of reflex she screams in pain gently rubbing her back trying to sooth her pain
What the hell was that? (she looks at Meera who was holding a ruler in her hand ready to smack her again) What was that for?
Meera: Your life is complete? You can live in peace now? What the eff is all that about? (she raises her ruler again to hit her making Geet hide under the blanket. Meera angrily pulls the blanket) Look at me?
(Geet looks at her like a little baby)
Geet: What did I say?
Meera (sits on the bed holding her head in frustration) ugh I can't believe i roped myself in this mess. (she looks at Geet with anger) Are you seriously telling me that you are going to be happy for life without getting the person you love? You STILL have a lot of work to do in order to reach that "happy" phase. You still have to make him realize your love...
Geet: lllooo lllooo lllove? (she started to stutter) You know I can't even talk to him properly then how can I confess my love?
Meera; That you have to figure out how? And believe me I will not leave you alone until my goal is complete and you know me pretty well.
Geet: But Meera we don't talk, we are the complete opposite and on top of that look at me
Meera: I don't care if you are not going to do it than I will. I won't have any hesitation in telling Maan that you love him and think only about him 24/7. I will even show him the pictures you took of him secretly on college campus (Geet looks at her shocked)
Geet: you won't
Meera (laughs) ohh yes I will and don't think I don't know where you kept your scrapbook filled with his pictures either (She shows Geet the book that she kept hidden under the mattress...Geet gets up from the bed trying to grab them from her hand) if you don't do what I say then there is no guarantee what I will do with this book or who will get it (she winks)
Geet: Meera ki bachi I am going to kill you! (she grabs the same ruler that Meera used on her and runs after her..Meera quickly opens the room door bolting down the stairs as Geet chased her. Geet's parents didn't pay any attention at all since this was normal between the two.
Meera opens the front door only to be stopped by the very last person she had hoped to see here at Geet's house. Geet, who didn't pay attention to her surrounding, runs toward the door entrance with the ruler still in her hand.
Meera looks at Geet with fear "ohh god if she only pays more attention to what is going on." She looks at the person standing in front of her with a small smile while looking at Geet with fear. Meera slowly starts to move to the side when Geet stood in front of her huffing and puffing trying to recollect herself not paying attention at all to the person standing behind Meera..her main focus was the book in the hand..
Geet: Give me the book Meera...you know I can't let anyone at all see it...(Geet grabs the book from her hand with victorious smile; Meera motions her to look with her eyes..Geet looks at Meera and then follows her eyes that is when it hits her...Out of reflex she drops the notebook on the floor.) Maan
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Maan was on the way to meet his friends when he realized he had forgotten his wallet at home. Quickly he made a U-turn not knowing what awaits him. Before he could enter the house he heard his Dadima talking to someone..he rolled his eyes nothing new in that..she would be throwing kitty parties but as soon as he was about to enter he saw completely different scenario. "Is that the same girl Geet? What is she doing here?" (he quickly hides behind a pillar that was big enough to conceal his big broad muscular body *Simi fans herself*)
"We got this shirt for Maan" (he heard someone say...)
Maan (st) A shirt for me? Why? (Then he heard his Dadima laughing talking when the someone (as he couldn't recognize who's voice belonged to whom) explained the situation happened at the mall...Maan made a fist with his hand trying to control his anger...)
"What was the need to say that to my Dadima? Great now she will definitely make fun of me for this..." (he just stood there listening to every single conversation...As soon as they left Maan entered the mansion pretending as if he didn't hear or see anything...he proceeded to go up the stairs for his purse knowing very well his Dadima will stop him any minute now)
Dadima: Maan beta (Maan smirks as he quickly turns around) you just missed your classmates
Maan: Classmates? Here? why?
Dadima: Two girls they were so sweet. One of them even brought you a shirt to apologize for the mess she made yesterday
Maan: Dadima I don't have time for this. Anyways I am getting late.
Dadima: Wait (Maan stops) at least take your shirt with you...she was really sorry
Maan (looks at the shirt) this is not even my style and who wears a buttoned up shirt to college?
Dadima: Maan I know you are young and at a time where you don't appreciate anything but don't insult anything if someone gave them to you as a gift.
Maan (sighs) Okay Dadima can I go now? I will keep the shirt. Happy.
Dadima (smiles) By the way how do you know the girls?
Maan (pretended he doesn't know which girls she was referring too) who?
Dadima: the girls that came here to apologize?
Maan: I don't know..Dadima I am popular at college I don't have time to think about girls or pay attention who comes to see me..anyways I am getting late..talk to you later (Maan throws the shirt on the bed..."first she drops all her food on me and then she comes to my house embarrassing me even more?" (he picks up the shirt holding it against his body...)
"hmm the shirt seems it will fit well" (he looks at it remembering her brown eyes looking at him with innocence...he comes out of his thoughts realizing what he was doing. He grabs the shirt stuffing it in his closet without looking...he goes to his table to grab his wallet when he realizes about the presentation due on Monday, which was one day away. He grabs his work knowing what he had to do whether he liked it or not...)
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Maan looks at the ground where the book laid closed on the floor. It was a purple fur book with hearts and flowers covering every inch of the book. He noticed a picture popping out of the book which caught his attention, even though he couldn't see the face there was something about it that seemed familiar. Geet eyes almost popped out of her eyes with fear and nervousness when she noticed one of Maan's picture was half way out of the book.
She saw Maan slowly bending down to pick it up when Geet kicked the book down the stairway of the entrance away from him causing it to fall open upside down below the stairs. Meera hits her head with annoyance and decided to leave the two alone...Maan looks at Geet with anger who looks down not knowing what else to do but to mentally curse herself once again for acting stupid. Both just stood there not knowing what to say or do.
"Woh...uhh..." (Geet tried to formulate a sentence but nothing came out of her mouth. In front of Meera and her mom, Geet could talk for hours and hours but when she is around Maan she suddenly forgets how to talk)
Maan (sighs) I know we are supposed to be working together for our project and it's due on Monday. So I decided to finish the project for the both of us. This is your copy all you have to do is present the slides with your name on it.
Geet (looks at the binder in shock) But...we...I mean...us...project
Maan: Don't worry I wont tell the professor only I worked on the topic. This will be easier since it will take you ages to come up with a proper sentence. (Geet shuts her mouth in pain after hearing him)
No offence...(he was about to turn around) by the way tomorrow I could go over the slides for an hour or so to practice so that way the professor don't suspect anything. Here is my home address if you decide to come...(he notices the book on the ground he was about to pick it up but decided not to after seeing her reaction.)
Geet just stood there seeing him walk away from her house. Meera comes out of her hiding shaking her head...
Meera: See this was what I was afraid of...he thinks you can't talk properly now you even lost the chance to get close to him. Even snails are faster then you Geet.
Geet (pouts) So what will I do?
Meera: well it looks like you have one more chance tomorrow night. Don't screw up this time.
Geet: But...
Meera: No buts! Come on we have a lot of work to do
Precap: What will happen now? hmm
