Chapter 69
Maan packs everything up to leave for London. All night, he couldn't sleep with just the thought of going away from Geet, his daughter and his little brother but he has no option. Geet wants divorce from him. He still can't cope with that idea. I know what I did was unforgivable but divorce? I guess I am meant to live alone and repent for my mistake. I don't deserve a second chance. I have to leave before any drama occurs not that anyone would notice him going.
"Sir, someone came to see you"
"hmm I will be there in few."
Geet woke up feeling happy. She was feeling light after speaking with Meera. She knew what she had to do. She had to go to Maan and let him know how she feels whether he accepts it or not.

dil mera
dekhne laga tha ek sapna naya
chah raha tha
woh jodna har tinka
mere tutte hue ghar ka dobaara
She quickly got ready to go meet him before he left for work. She was feeling nervous with worry but she knew after today she won't be sad again. She picks up Anamika in her arms getting her ready as well. She kisses her stomach making her laugh.
"Today I will go tell your stubborn father my feelings. Wish me luck baby"
Anamika giggles and cooes with happiness. Meera comes inside the room looking at her with a big smile.
"here give me this little angel and you go and confess your feelings for him"
"I am feeling so nervous Meera. I don't know how he will react or say"
"Don't be. I am sure he loves you too. Just speak your mind okay. Now go before he leaves"
"okay."
Geet hugs Meera before leaving the room with a smile. "babaji please don't let anything go wrong."
Maan sat opposite of the lawyer who came to get divorce papers ready. He wanted to settle everything before he left. After that he won't have any connection with anymore no matter how much it hurts him.
Mr. Khruana, under what basis are you filing for divorce?"
"Make anything up but don't make my wife look bad."
"What about the custody of your child?"
"Geet will have full custody of Anamika starting today. I will ONLY meet Anamika whenever I am in town. I will send money monthly for Anamika which will be used for her. Her mother, Geet, will decide where and how money should be spent. Also, I have created Anamika's college fund, where I will also deposit money for her future education."
"Okay sir. Your divorce won't be finalized until next month. In the meantime, I will begin the process. Until then, here is the ruffdraft copy"
"Thanks. Call me as soon as it is ready."
Maan gets up to show the door when the last thing he expected was standing there Geet. She was in tears. He knew she listened to the whole conversation about divorce. But why was she sad? Was she not happy I am doing what she wanted me to do?
Geet comes near him with tears looking at him with disbelief.
aankho mein chuppa kar
saanso mein dabaa kar
khud ki bhi nazaro se chuppa kar
dil mein dabb kar
rakha the yeh khawaab
kuch pal pahle tak
lag raha tha keee
sab kuch hi toh ,phir se hoga mera
jab kal hoga naya savera
par ab iss pal mai
kitna hu mein tanha yaha
kyu uss ek pal mein
badal gaya mera janha
ab to
mera khud ka saaya bhi
mere saath nahi de raha
Did I hear him right? Divorce? Why? What have I done now? What did I do to deserve this harsh punishment? Do I not deserve any happiness in my life? First, I was deprived of fathers love. Then I my mother died leaving me all alone in this world. Maan came into my life tortured me making me hate myself for even being born. I had wished so many times that why couldn't I had died along with my mother. Later, he gave me hope in form of my daughter. I started to live again. I starting to hope that maybe just maybe I could have a normal home like everyone else. I was willing to forget everything and move on with him whether he felt the same way about me or not. I was willing to move on with him only for him and my daughter. Now, he is giving me pain again by mentioning divorce? Can this be true?
I could see him surprised, maybe I came on a wrong time. Maybe I wasn't suppose to know about this until later. I wanted to ask him for this abrupt decision but nothing could come out of my mouth. My heart was breaking in million pieces as I looked at him for an answer. Even he couldn't look at me directly. We came face to face under these circumstances What kind of game is bababji playing with me? I guess the history has to repeat itself. My daughter will also grow up without her father just like I did. I should've known that we are not meant for any happiness in our lives.
I can't believe she is here in front of me. I wanted to hug and kiss her endlessly but couldn't. I had to stay within my limits especially since she doesn't want me in her life. I mean why would she after what I have done. Then why isn't she happy? The tears in her eyes are of disappointment and pain. Have I made a mistake in this? Is there more to this? She is walking away from me. Should I stop he? Do I have that much of right on her?
Geet walked back to the house in tears. If this is what is meant to be then she will accept it. She walks to her room lifeless. She saw Meera putting Anamika in her crib. Geet runs towards Meera and hugs her tightly while crying.
"Geet what happened? What did he say?"
"he wants divorce from me"
"What you can't be serious. How can he do that? No that is not possible. I will go and talk to him"
"no, leave it. I guess I am not meant for happiness Maybe I did something wrong to deserve this. Meera don't tell anyone about this. I would like to be alone right now"
"But Geet"
"Please Meera."
"Okay. Let me know if you need anything"
Geet drops on the bed crying until her stomach was in pain. Maan paced his room back and fourth rethinking about his decision. Did I do this right? Her eyes they never lie. I knew she was hurt by this decision. Why? Why was she here? Maybe I am thinking too much into this. Maybe I should forget and move on.
He calls up his lawyer "Cancel the divorce...I want to wait for a little bit" He hangs up the phone. I can't make a hasty decision without knowing the facts. I can't.
He runs out of the outhouse toward the mansion. I have to talk to Geet to know how she is feeling. If she could give me another chance. This decision was really hard for me and I want her to know that. She is everything to me. I want to heal her pain and as well as mine.
He opens the room door to see her crying on the bed holding her stomach. He runs up to her with worry and pain. She is in this mess because of me.
"Geet are you okay? What happened?"
sun ke uski woh chah
lag raha hai
ho jauga barbaad ab mein yahaan
dil ke tudke hue hai haazaro
par kyu ab bhi
yeh paagal di de raha hai duhaai
ke na hogi mere pyaar ki ruswaai
ke jo duniyya
apne khawaabo mai
meine hai basaayi
woh nahi hogi paraayi
hai ik nanhi pari
jo hai roshni ban kar meri zindgi mein aayi
woh karegi mere har sitam ki bhar paayi
aur mitta degi har deewar
jo hai mere aur meri khushiyoon ke bicch aayi
She looks at him and pushes him away. He looks at her hurt. "Go away. You gave me this pain and now asking what happened?" (She hiccups while talking. Maan grabs glass of water and holds it near her mouth. She pushes it away making some of the water drop on the floor)
"I don't want anything from you. Go away. Don't show me this fake concern of yours"
"Geet. I am not faking. Believe me"
"Believe you? I don't know what to believe anymore. I don't know why I am even here. First, you put cameras in this room to keep an eye on me. (Maan looks at her shocked) I thought ohh maybe he did that to make sure if I was safe, to make sure nothing is bothering me or Anamaika. But I was wrong. You only kept the cameras to see how much pain we were pain. I had forgotten you love to see me in pain. It gives you peace. Right?"
"Geet...I"
"No. Don't talk. Its my turn. No matter what you have done in my past there was one thing I was grateful to you for. Anamika. I heard from everyone how much you have changed, how you took care of us while in the hospital. I was a fool to think the same. I must say you put on a great act in front of everyone. You really fooled me and everyone with your acting. You are, after all a king. A king that can do anything at anytime. A king that has the rights to play with anyone's feelings without caring. Am I right?"
"No.."
"Why am I even asking you. That is who you are. You love to give me pain. I am surprised you didn't kill you daughter yet. You always wanted a boy right? She is right there go kill her and than kill me!"
"GEET!!!" (he slaps her and holds her arms tightly with anger) "How can you think that? Huh? How can you think that I would want to kill you and Anamika? I am alive because of you too." (Anamika starts to cry. He holds her in his arms with tears) "I can't imagine my life without you too. Only I know how hard it was for me to stay away from you guys all this time. The cameras were there so I know you too are safe. So I feel close to you guys." (Anamika puts her head on his shoulder as she sleeps peacefully) "But no matter what the distance was still there between us. I was afraid to face you. I know I have given you both a lot of pain. I wanted to make you guys happy. I knew me staying far away from you will make you happy. I was accepting my punishment. Whenever I came near you, I gave you nothing but pain."
"Yesterday, after the party I realized how wrong I was. I don't think I can stay away from you too any longer. I wanted to talk to you about giving me another chance but maybe I didn't deserve it. I heard you talking about divorce. So I decided to give you one if that makes you happy" (He puts Anamika inside her crib)
"I am going away far from you Geet just to make you happy. Tonight, you will not have to see my face anymore Geet. If you still want a divorce than I will happily sign it for you"
Geet claps with a smile.
"Nice. Good to know that you can still make a decision by yourself without asking the other person. You promised to stay away from me and not show me your face for my happiness and not you are deciding to go away for my happiness. Nice. Now, divorce also for my happiness. You are really great. You give pain and you take away pain. Nice. Everyone should learn from you"
"Geet," (He looks at her with pain)
"Enough Maan." (She holds him by his collar) "you can be really stupid sometimes. I don't even know how you manage to run your own company. If you had stayed and listened to the whole conversation than you would've known what I really wanted."
"What are you saying"
"Doesn't mater anymore. I was a fool to come to you in the morning hoping we can start a new life together. I was willing to forget everything but no I was wrong. You want to leave right. Than leave. Go away. I don't care..."
"who is leaving?"
Both look toward the door to see Vicky standing there in his school uniform. Geet goes up to him with tears...
"Say bye to your bhai Vicky. He is leaving today forever."
Vicky looks at him with tears and hugs him.
"You can't leave...please don't leave. Is it something that I did? I promise I won't bother you anymore. I will get good marks. Please don't leave..." (Maan puts his arms around his shoulders trying to calm him down. He looks at Geet who turns her head away in pain. Vicky holds his hand dragging him towards him room) "Look you can take all my toys away. I don't want any. I don't want to play but just promise don't leave me..."
Maan hugs him and picks him up in tears.
"How can I leave you Vicky. You are part of me." (He sees Geet standing there looking at both) "Geet forgive me. Let's start a new life together somewhere far away. Lets get to know one another like we should've. Lets all four of us move. Would you move with me Geet?"
