He preferred she did something useful rather than taking care of house hold kiosk. More over it was KM they had so many people to do all that. Thats when she decided to get back to her work. She was so scared to seek his permission. But he always had surprised her.
Jo wo mujhe she cleared her throat nervously.
He went around the table & took his file kya hain Geet he asked getting impatient now
she knew he was going to burst out like a volcano now, then well she had also made up her mind to give it back to him this time.. aur nahi tho kya.. wat was she supposed to do in KM.. but she was left awed when he just agreed with a nod. Without even a twitch in his expression.
Actually she saw a kind of appreciation in his voice.. no..she can't be wrong in reading him..he did kind of showed his appreciation in the way he said umm.
Well that was it. Her life had changed beautifully. No nok-jhok ..no sulking, the time in her office was pure bliss. Her life began to shape up a bit. Things began to seem colorful & hopeful yet again. Gradually the void that was between them seemed normal. Probably attributed to their private space now. God how much space does he need, she wondered.
They probably were together every now & then.. to be precise 3-4 times a week. She chuckled.. actually was more than healthy. Initially she used to wait for him to call .. & the way he approached was cute. She laughed on her own thought of calling him cute.. Maan Singh Khurana cute. Aur nahi tho kya. .. how could she forget the very next night after their first night. Maan had called her name loudly.
Geet.. he called
she was in the kitchen then
oh god it was embarrassing, exciting.. the thought itself made her knees melt. She wanted to run to him, but Daadi, pami ma, anni every one was there how could she. So she slowly made her way to their room. He was so confused yet again..
I was shy & he looked really cute with those red hue on his cheeks. .. he could say nothing but ask for water
water.. wat he actually called out for water
he called again.. for coffee this time.. & .. she could so much understand his plight now
Maan wondered wat to ask now.. when she sweetly locked the door behind. He instantly wanted to protest but his heart betrayed. He probably blushed.. can u believe.. Maan Singh Khurana actually blushed.
They both stood watching each other & looking down, kind of awkward scene, with thudding heart beats echoing the room both clearly aware of their state. When he couldn't say anything.. she dipped her head & said meekly main change karke aathi hoon. & it has been like that ever since. He would call her for coffee or water & she would sweetly oblige by going straight to the wash room & change into the night gown. It had become some norm.
Another fresh layer of tear formed..remembering how many nights in between she had waited he would call but he didn't. She never knew how to go to him & express she wanted to be with him. She had to wait for him to bless her that sweet moment & don't know when she stopped waiting.. sadly stopped wanting... & don't know when there was nothing for her in their sweet togetherness.
Even last night they where close. Her heart was longing to hold him & confess to him her fear of losing him for ever. All the while he was in her, she wanted to hold the moment together. Wanted the clock to stop.. wish the earth just stopped.. stand still he be hers.. just in all sense. For the first time she had held him really tight in her embrace not fearing his reaction. To her surprise yet again, he didn't say anything. He just laid their on her resting his head on the crock of her neck panting not realizing her tears didn't seem to stop. She so much wanted to hide her state. Actually she did quiet well.. thats why ' so far it was just another normal day for Maan today.
Her heart almost stopped this time not in any hope but in fear, fear of unknown. She took a deep breath & straighten herself when she heard a click at the knob. Her eyes began to flutter rapidly & fluttered again again & paused when finally their eyes met.
His first reaction was a smile & then probably he remembered his meeting
Geet yeh office hain, yanha kya kar rahi ho? don't u have office today?
Ji wo.. her hands were shaking to give him the papers that he didn't even notice.. he just stood near the door holding it open for her as he spoke
jo bhi hain we shall talk at home
she dipped her head & looked down clearly her posture depicting denial. He took a deep breath controlling his anger that was very natural with so much going on his mind.
Plz don't be kiddish. Yah office hain plz Geet.
There was so much going in her mind. It was a very strong step she had taken. It took everything in her first to come to this conclusion & then to work towards it. It seriously was not a joke. Being a girl to speak to a divorce lawyer all alone, get the paper ready & worst of all be here infront of him with that. She could have send it in a mail but no, she thought that won't be right. She was not running away from this relation. She was seeking life. She wanted a complete life & she definitely won't get it by running away or hiding out. Wat ever it is she has to face it.
She had tried million time speaking to him at home but he never had time for a serious talk. They did talk to each other every day. Probably even smiled at each other.. her mind wondered, when did they smile each other last time.. she snapped back to reality when she felt his hand on her shoulder guiding her to the door.
Geet I have an important meeting now.. jo bhi hian we can talk it at home
she slowly inched out of his hold not wanting her behavior impose any rudeness.
he closed his eyes in frustration.. he greeted his teeth as he spoke plz don't create a scene here.
Her heart felt burden with millions of unanswered questions.. choked with emotions. Can't he feel her pain forget feeling can't he atleast see her restlessness & wat does he mean by always accusing her of being childish.. oh god when was last he seen her doing anything childish, thats if he seen her. Bachpana tho na jaane kanha kho gaya. Why is he so scared she would create a scene! is that all he knows abt her in all these years of marriage. How many instances she has kept quiet on this pretext.
Even today coming to office was not her option but only choice he had left her with because she couldn't talk to him at home. By the time she would gather courage to speak he would either dose off or an impt call.. or some meeting wo sab kam the ki saasu ma & her complains. So hear she was today after waiting a whole one month to get his appointment.
Precap
wonder if Geet will manage to speak up.
