SS-Life partner,CHAPTER12-PG142DEC.9 - Page 12

Geet was checking herself in bathroom mirror. She was wearing a long loose top ending below her knees with shorts which were not visible under the long top.Her favorite white top was no longer white due to its encounter with the dust settled on the pipe during her ninja activities.It seemed like she was wearing it since last week..Her hair were complete mess,half clutched and half loose touching her cheeks.She had not washed her face since morning."No wonder that kid in drawing room thought me as witch" she mumbled to her self while brushing her hair.She tied her hair in a pony and squeezed some of face wash from the tube on her palm..Her nostrils filled with fresh lemon fragrance of the soapy liquid as she rubbed her face with her palms.Fragrance felt extra refreshing to her as compared to smell of "Dettol hand wash"whose bottle was about to finish due to continuous use by geet..After completing her refreshing process she gave final look to herself in the mirror..

"now you are looking like a decent witch"she said to herself with a wink. Sound of footsteps coming closer to her room made her run from bathroom and hid herself in the blanket.She was so sick after all.

Rano opened the door and entered inside with a lady and two kids behind.

Geet,her mother called her.Geet brought her face out of blanket with an expression like she was perturbed from deep slumber.

Yes mumma..she said in lowest pitch ever heard from her mouth..

geet..look who is here to meet you,Rano replied pointing towards lady.

Lady was dressed in green colored saree .She was carrying cute baby in her arms. It was a girl child actually clearly told by pink laced frock and matching socks adoring the little doll.She was a barbie doll indeed with prominent brown eyes like her mother and rosy chubby cheeks.Geet suddenly felt the urge to kiss them.Mischievous boy was holding the corner of her mother's pallu looking at geet with wide eyes,hiding himself completely behind the lady. May be he was still scared from witch.Lady was pretty enough to catch your attention with minimal make up.

Hello...i am kiran..she said with a pretty smile..Geet felt like sugar melting in her ears..She had sweetest girly voice.Voice which Rano always wanted to hear from her daughter..Maan is my younger brother..lady continued the symphony.

hello..i am geet..geet tried to bring some sugary effect in her voice but failed miserably.Voice came out like cuckoo singing with a "sore throat" ..she jolted upright on the bed still covering her messy top with aid of blanket and made some space for lady to settle down near her..

Kiran perched on soft mattress.."aunty told me about your health,what happened???Is it fever"she asked in a worried tone and touched her forehead with back of her right hand while holding the baby in her lap with left one.Her touch was motherly.

"no..no..not fever..actually...Geet did not want to tell her about loosemotions but genuine worry in Kiran's eyes could not let her lie..actually my stomach is upset...she said in a whisper and looked at her mother.Rano answered her with another disappointed glare.Geet pouted her lips in response.Kiran smiled looking at her pouting face.."Its completely okk,,,you know changing weather..it generally causes such problems"Kiran said assuringly.

Baby doll in her hands caught geet's attention."Can i take her"??she asked with hesitation.

Sure..sure..let me introduce you first,,She is Aaravi..Kiran said placing her in geet's lap..Geet held her with immense care..Aaravi smiled to her showing her gums very cutely.Cute gesture of little creature made her kiss the cheeks quickly.she again gave a gummy smile...

Aaravi..she is your maami..Kiran's voice made aaravi look towards her mother...maami loves aaravi alottt..right...aaravi responded to her mother with a babyish squeak and looked towards geet.Geet was amazed by her little gestures..She was so adorable.Geet touched her just below the chin and baby giggled again.She repeated the act and it ended with more giggles..."mumma..look..she laughs when i touch her here"..Geet yelled to her mother with excitement.She was so lost in baby that she forgot the presence of Kiran there and was back to her normal self.Rano's angry glare made her realize her mistake.."sorry.."she said biting her tongue..

"No..its fine..geet,,don't be so formal with me..i am also your di from now.."

ofcourse di...geet replied with a toothy grin.

Little boy pulled Kiran's pallu to get desirable attention.."oh..yes,,geet,,,i forgot to introduce you to my elder son"Kiran said while bringing the boy at front who was hidden behind his mother till now"He is aarav..he is in..."

"No..mumma..i will shpeak to maami myshelf"boy cut in between,,

ohk..ohk..you tell her yourself..Kiran said pinching his cheek..

"hello..maami..i am aarav..i am five years old..i am in ..umm..umm..L.K.G..Aakshat is my besht friend..will you be my friend'he asked cutely bringing forward his hand for a hand shake.

Geet smiled at little gentleman and shook his hand.."ofcourse aarav,,i will be your friend"

Aarav smiled in response"maami can i play with your bunny"??he asked pointing towards pink bunny at side table whose neck was often used by geet to release her temper. Bunny was not a living thing still looked like dead due to breath choking.

why not aarav,,sure..Geet gave him the bunny..

Thank you maami...i love you alot...i will tell papa that maami gave me her bunny when he will be back..

Back..where is he???geet asked to kiran..

My husband is in AMC{army medical corps}.He is generally posted at different places. I and my kids lives with my mother in law in our native house...actually my mother in law's health generally remains unstable..There should be someone to take care of her,,,Kiran replied with sadness,,

ohk di.,.he is coming for wedding na..geet asked.

yes..yes..he will come surely for the marriage of his dear brother in law..excitement was back to kiran's voice.."you must rest now"she said taking aaravi from her lap."we should leave,,get up aarav..say bye to maami"

aarav hugged and kissed her on cheek.."you are sho shweet maami..aarav loves you..byee"he whispered in her ear..Geet kissed him back..."wow..he is kissing the witch who was scaring him so much few minutes back"Geet thought in her mind and smirked lightly..Before leaving the room kiran gave her motherly hug and instructed her to take care.Rano took the trio to show another rooms on first floor.Kiran put aaravi in pram near the door and walked behind Rano while pushing the pram and holding aarav's finger.Aarav turned his head back and gave a flying kiss to his maami.geet caught the kiss dramatically from the air.

******************************

Geet adjusted herself in the bed.Kiran and her mother's chatters were audible to her from room near by.Chatter was interrupted with vroom vroom sound made by Aarav."he must be playing with some toy car"she thought.Suddenly her eyes caught the site of Aarav running and pushing Aarvi's pram with full force using it as racing car through half opened door of her room.."oh my god..stairs..he may fall along with aaravi"..Thought made Geet jump from bed as she sprinted towards door and yelled "stop aarav..stop running.."Sudden scream of geet startled the little boy and his hand loosened the grip on pram's handle near the top most step.With in the fraction of second,pram was tumbling down the stairs.Geet lost her mind at the dreadful sight.She has to save aaravi anyhow.Only way was to reach at the base before pram and prevent aaravi falling out of pram on floor..She immediately straddled her legs on stair's wooden railing with her derriere facing the floor and hands catching the railing tightly and slid down swiftly.It was her regular way to come down without using stairs.She tried to catch tumbling pram with one hand while sliding down but could not succeed.Instead her hand pushed the pram and it landed on the floor with a thud sound before geet could reach at floor. As geet's feet touched ground,she saw something pink falling out from pram.She screamed at top of her lungs and closed her eyes not able to bear dreadful sight.Tears was rolling down from her closed eyes regularly.

she felt her father touching her shoulder and calling "geet"..".geet".She opened her eyes and hid herself in his chest."daddy..th.at..ba..ay..i..tried but.."she spoke while sobbing hysterically

"baby is fine,,geet..baby is completely fine"he said cupping her face.."look"he pointed with his index finger upwards.Geet looked up.Kiran was standing there with aaravi safe and secure in her arms.Near her,Rano was standing holding aarav's hand with a killing look in her eyes."then what was that pink thing??"she mumbled and looked down to find the answer.Poor pink bunny was lying down near pram.Actually Aarav was giving ride to her bunny in pram.Realization hit her and calmed down all her anxiety.Pink bunny is officially dead today,she thought and grinned foolishly looking upwards towards Rano and kiran. Kiran smiled back but Rano glared at her with immense anger.

"Daddy..why mummy is looking at me like this"She whispered in her father's ear.

"Beta..girls usually demonstrate their cooking skills or painting skills or any other creativity before marriage to her groom or in laws but you are first prospective bride who had shown her "ninja skills"

he whispered back.

oh my god..everyone has witnessed my sliding stunt..she asked incredulously.

unfortunately yes. Mohinder noded..look at Maan beta..She turned her head sideways and saw maan standing there with his mouth wide open.."He must be thinking that he is going to marry some monkey woman"Mohinder smirked saying this. His words made geet laugh out loud but somehow she suppressed it.

"now what daddy"..

nothing..lets close your would be hubby's mouth..come...Mohinder caught geet from shoulder and made their way towards drawing room area.

Maan came out from astonishment when he saw father daughter duo coming towards him.."actually she was NCC cadet in college so could not control herself"Mohinder tried to put some rationality behind her act.

"wow..maami..you are jackie chain" Aarav yelled hugging geet's waist from behind. Meanwhile Rano and Kiran also came down to join the group. But strangely Maan was still looking lost. His eyes were fixed on Geet. She felt conscious under his gaze"oh i must be looking beautiful"she blushed in her mind,,But her blushing subsided when she found his gaze not at her face but little below.."oh my god..this pervert..he is ogling at my curves""but his gaze was fixed a little more down"what is there on my stomach"she thought in her mind and looked down to find the object of his interest.Her eyes widened on the revelation..His eyes were fixed on the images of shinchan printed on her long white top.They were "not so decent" images with shinchan's nickers down to his ankles in both,showing his bummies prominently. In one image he was showing some peculiar ski-ing move in the sea and in another,it was simple act of showing painting skills on the bums.

Geet turned her head first towards her mother and then father and pointed with her eyes towards the images. "Embarrassment" was an understatement for the Handa couple. It was regular affair for them to watch their daughter clad in this "cutiecool" (as mentioned by geet to them) top but they had never thought even in their dreams that it would bring this much embarrassment for them some day. Till now kiran had also noticed the weird clothing of hers but somehow she managed to suppress the laughter. Most amazed person among the group was little aarav. He had never seen any "elder"wearing his favorite cartoon character's shirt. His love for his newly found maami had touched the highest peek now."wow maami..your tshirt is sho cool...look mumma..shinchan...you will buy me same na..pleasshhh"'he asked her mother with ample excitement in his eyes. Kiran sshhed him and dragged him away from arm with her.."Auntie let me help you with lunch"kiran said to Rano .Rano found an excuse to leave the embarrassing situation. Mohinder too made some excuse and left.

It was geet and maan left at the place.Geet's cheek were crimson.First sliding stunt and now shinchan,she had shown her true colours to him.. Maan was speechless . He cleared his throat and asked her to sit to ease the situation. But fate was not in geet's favor that day as her stomach ditched her again and screamed to ease the pressure. She was not at all in the condition to sit and chat."Pooping in pants" will ruin her little left over modesty"she thought.

"Wait ",she replied and ran to adjoined toilet clutching her stomach. Maan was again surprised. He sat there shuffling the newspaper."Characteristic crackelling sounds"of upset stomach coming from the toilet cleared the reason behind his would be wife's running act. Geet was sitting in toilet and trying hard to suppress the annoying noises but all went in vain.
