Another Cinderella Story S&DF || Ch12/pg55 - Dec 12 - Page 29

Around 10:00pm of night, after cleaning up the kitchen and all the orders that were done given by the trio Geet decided to go for a walk. As she stepped out the driveway she saw her neighbors come home from where ever they had gone to have a family-time out. They waved at her and she waved back at them with a sweet smile on her face ignoring the tiredness she was feeling from whole day long. As she walked on she missed the old family times her family, her 'real family' used to have. But now she is stuck with a step-mom always ordering and she herself roaming around, or relaxing and two steep-sisters who doesn't care about the world around them but themselves, surely gotten that from their mother.

Just when she was about to cross over to the other side, A car zoomed by her nearly knocking her down. She could swear that she didn't saw any car coming by when she looked on either side of the road before she crossed over.

Geet yelled, "Hey watch it, this is not a racing track! You could kill somebody at this high speed that too at this time of night"

While she was making sure she didn't get injured or got any scratches, the car reversed itself and planted right in front of her.

?: "Sorry you said something?"

Geet said, "Yeah, who gave you the driver's license? Didn't you gave exam and knew that this high speed at night that too in a neighbor hood can get you a ticket, double if you knock somebody down!" still looking at her legs and arms.

Finally she looked up to see who the idiot moron was, and her eyes got wide as she bit down her tongue and cursed herself for saying whatever she did. 'Cause the idiot moron whom she referred to was none other than Maan! She sighed and thanked God that she didn't called him "Idiot Moron" out loud.

Maan who was of course accompanied by Sufiyan, they both glanced at each other and back out the window.

Sufiyan yelled at Maan, "Dude didn't I told you I will drive, but no you didn't listen to me, thank God that this pretty girl is safe, what if something had happen to her?"

Geet raised her eyebrows and rolled her eyes.

Maan replied, "Well she is okay, at least she looks okay to me," leaning a little over the window and seeing that her bottom half was fine, "but right now she didn't liked that you called her pretty girl!"

Geet once again raised her eyebrows and just turned around and walked around the car crossed over and started walking ahead.

Sufiyan gritted, "Seriously!"

Maan asked, "What?"

Sufiyan replied in a rhetorical tone, "She mostly didn't like the fact that you said that she didn't liked me calling her 'pretty girl' which in other words you said 'she is not pretty!' "

Maan replied trying to make it all sense correctly in his brain, "Well, I didn't mean to say that."

Sufiyan grinned widely, "So you think she is pretty?"

Maan giving him a killing look, made a U-turn to catch up with Geet who had made a pretty good distance by now.

Maan admitted, "Well she is cute, can't deny that."

Sufiyan reminded, "Isn't she the same from that auditorium and than again today she came to meet us in parking lot?"

Maan spotted Geet walking, her back shape, which looked perfect with the moonlight and stars adding their faint glitter. Slowing the car he answered, "Yeah and the salad dropping girl too. I tell you she managed perfectly the first two times...when I seriously thought she was going to drop it."

Sufiyan eyed his best friend, "So you were checking her out at that time?"

Maan gritted his teeth "Shut up dude!" by now they were driving slowly right beside Geet, he added, "and the locker bumping girl too. Seriously, we need to find a new way to meet, this bumping thing is getting really harsh. I mean out of all the bumps, this one with the car could have seriously landed you in a hospital bed."

Geet, clearly hearing every word that was being said, rolled her eyes and mumbled a bit loudly, "Better option, how about we change our path when we see the other, that way we won't either bump into each other and neither we will have to come up with a new signature meeting."

Sufiyan rolling down his window complete, "hello again" to lighten up the mood.

Geet ignoring and thinking to herself, 'now seriously why would they want to follow me?'

Maan answered her as if she asked the question out loud "Actually we are not following you, we are driving beside you not behind."

Geet sighed and stopped in her tracks, which made Maan apply brakes too, "Did I ask any thing?"

Maan shook his head, "Nope, just thought to say it, if you were wondering you know."

Geet informed, "Well, let me tell you I don't like it when people, specially "Stranger" tell me something when I didn't say a single word."

Sufiyan gave a low whistle and mouthed 'O'

Geet continued ignoring Sufiyan, "And now I would ask a question...aren't you late now stalling 'beside' me while just minutes ago you were zooming at I don't know what speed with out caring whom you might kill, to go to which ever place you had to?"

Maan replied with out any hesitation, "Ehh didn't felt like going their, when I could be accompanied by an angle, and either ways I was going to your place only to meet that boring lady, but I will prefer your company over hers."

Geet looked at him and then putting her thoughts aside she replied, "Well too bad, so sorry...I don't feel like accompanying you, I right now prefer to be alone...so, cya," and saying so she resumed her walk.

Maan and Sufiyan glanced once again at each other, Maan smiled and pushed lightly on the accelerator'again getting on same level as Geet's pace.

Maan pushed Sufiyan back against the sit and called out to the other side, "At least give me your name! Other day also you didn't introduce yourself."

Geet still walking ahead and not bothering to look, "I don't give my names to strangers."

Maan gasped, "As I told you earlier, you do need to go to an eye doctor."

Geet retorts back, "And also as I said, your crazy fans should follow that advice and not me."

Sufiyan smiled and interrupted, "I like you better than other girls, we should hang out more often."

Geet looked down and smiled at him, "Would love to if your alone friend beside you is not their and you don't use that stupid line which you do to impress girls."

Sufiyan laughed looking at Maan at the first part and said, "What line?"

Geet replied, "You know your usual...'I am '"

Sufiyan completed, "...Maan Singh Khurana's best friend!"

Geet nodded, "That one!"

Sufiyan asked "How do you know I use that?"

Geet said, "Well firstly you used it on my friend and second whole school knows about it as in the morning you used it over the intercom."

Maan said bringing the topic back, "Hey hey, we were talking about me over here!"

Geet said, "Oh look, the superstar is jealous that people don't talk about him when he is around."

"Oh so you do know that I am superstar, I thought you didn't by the way you were talking to me."

Geet stopped once again in her tracks and Maan hit on his brakes once more, turning towards the car she said in a clear tone, "Firstly let me clear one thing, I am not one of the girls who goes head over heels to talk to you or to get your autograph. Second, stop dreaming that you being a superstar would mean everyone talks with you as if they are crazy to get you, or just lucky to meet you in their life!"

Sufiyan said making it official, "Okay now I seriously like you!"

Maan said ignoring Sufiyan's comment or criticism, he is not sure at the moment how that sentence refers to him, "Okay so what's the problem over here, you acting that you don't care, or are you showing that you don't care that you met a superstar, or that we met about four times and you didn't got my autograph? What is it?"

Geet seriously getting pissed off, "Firstly, I don't need your autograph; I already got it about 2 years ago! Secondly, I am not acting that I don't care, cause I really don't care!"

"Ohh so that's explains your behavior, you have my autograph already and so now you don't care anymore"

Geet said, seriously getting the annoyance over her head, "No that's not the reason, but trust me, I am telling the truth ' once upon a time I was exactly like those million of your fans, who will go crazy seeing you in person, touching you, or getting your autograph. But that was over 2 years ago now; it's not the same anymore."

"Oh really, so you used to be crazy for me, didn't think that would happen even in my dreams."

"Well, tell you what, you thought right, that would never happen in dreams or in real as it has already happened and I will say one thing, why in the world was I like those other girls?"

Sufiyan leaned back comfortably on his seat enjoying the conversation, as for a change he didn't had to tackle any girl away from Maan, but instead he was meeting some one who is complete opposite and smart than others. By now Geet was leaning on the window over the Sufiyan's side and Maan letting go of stirring wheel, had applied parking brakes long time ago, has turned in his seat facing Geet so Sufiyan would not come in his way.

Maan giving out a chuckle, "You gotta be kidding me, you are saying that when just today in the afternoon you had came to meet me!" emphasizing on the last part

Geet had so wished that this topic would not come out, but too late it already had and she is surely not turning her back as that would say that she was like others which she is not!

Geet said, "Don't get that in any wrong view."

"Really, so what am I suppose to get that as?"

"Firstly, sorry if it hurts you; no matter what, I never wanted to see you or face you again! The only reason I came was because my friend had nagged me since morning to come," turning to Sufiyan and smiling, "by the way that's the same girl you tried to impress."

Sufiyan on the spot started thinking of any girls recently in last two days he might have tried to impress, but only one could come in his mind, the one whom he spent valentines night along with prom night with, but before he could know more about her she and her friend had ran and made their way out of the hall.

Maan looked at Sufiyan with confused face than at Geet who continued, "and the second reason of me coming their, was that you had called me!"

Saying so Geet turned around and made her way back towards her house as it was getting late and it was about time Tanya and Sanya were going to reach home and she surely didn't wanted to do anything more but just wanted to flop down on bed.

On the other side she had left thinking Sufiyan and confused Maan behind in the car. Sufiyan still trying to think of someone but only one beautiful face covered with white mask would flash in front of him. And Maan was thinking when he had called Geet to meet him out in the lot near the fountain.

They both turned around when they heard a car honk, in time to see it stop beside Geet. The car belonged to none other than Tanya and Sanya.

Sufiyan asked, "What are the twins doing over here?"

Maan asked, "How do you know about them?"

Sufiyan replied, "Dude, remember prom night? You were too busy dancing that you didn't noticed, but it was this twins who had dropped the bowl of marbles!" he added, "on purpose."
