PART - 25
Next evening as soon Maan arrived to his room,Nurse trying to gave him instructions of changed medi.of her.
'sir apko mam ki ye medi ki bare me...',but before she complete,Maan stoppd her showing his hand.
'no need to tell me sis.i know about her all medi.and on what time have to given. You can leave now. Mam ne soup piya?',Maan's voice is flat and he said without looking at her.
Nurse nodded no and he signled her to go. Maan straight went to washroom for a change.
'mam i must say you r so lucky that u have a husband like sir. He loves u soo much. Did u know how much he cried for you when you are laying on a death bed.'Nurse innocently reveled all the truth in front of her,but its very hard to believe for her.
'you are right sister. He loved me so much. Aisa pati shyad hi kisi ladki k bhag me ho.,holding back her frustration and tears,she said coolly. Her eyes was struk like stone having no courage to live at all.
Nurse leave and Maan come out of washrrom while rubbing his wet hairs with towel. She was half laid on her bed. Maan broke the silence btwn them.
'nurse gai?',he wants to be comfortable with her but its not so easy for her.
Geet instead of answering her raised another question. Nurse's words needled her at most.'Maan aaj hi mujhe pta chala ki tum bahut achhe actor b ho.',she siad in a taunting way.
Maan glanced at her amusingly.'sorry.'he was confused.
'ha abi mujhe nurse ne bataya ki kaise tumne sabke samne rone ki acting ki jab me hospital me thi.',she snap back coz her concious mind is not ready to believe on him.
Maan who is feeling very strongly for her not ready to take her false alligations and quickly ans her to prove himself.'i was not pretending,i geninuely feels to...'suddnly he stopped himself. He dont want to accept in front of her coz he himself dont know what's going with him these days. Moreover he knew if he tells,then will nothing change. The pain,the wound he gave her was for lifetime and uncurable. Her taunts and bitterness which is come out time to time is natural. Although he feels hurt at the momnt but he knows it was nothing in front of her sore.
Annoyed by his words,she stare his face and trying to studied it.'Really?and you want me to believe on it?',she said stiffly.
'its up to you,but from now i dont want to argue with u anymore,'he ans her in a polite manner.
'why? No need to pitying on me. Dont think ki agar main injured hu to...,she wants to know why he is behaving so well with her. What are his intentions?why he is turning soft?
Maan cuts her words.'i m not pitying on you. Bas ye samjh lo ab main or ladna nai chahta.',he confirmed shortly. But before he carry on his talking Somya entered in their room with a bowl of soup. Hearing her foot steps he shut his mouth.'bhabhi main aane hi wala tha soup lene k liye',
'pata hai pata hai,tu aajkal kuchh jada hi possessive ho gaya hai Geet k liye.,she teased him with a smile and sat near her. Geet unable to eat anything at her own. Somya start feeding her like to a baby. After sipping 3 - 4 spoons she denied to intake more.'sweety no more tanturms.be a good girl and finished it',Somya ordered her in authoritive voice.
'pls bhabhi i wont take it any more.'she annoying childishly.
'Geet finish it or else i call mom here right now. Then she feeds you with her scold. Or tu khada khadda dekh raha hai bol nai skta apni biwi ko.kaise bachho jaise nakhre kar rai hai.',Somya trying to threatened her on name of Arpita,so that may she gulp remaning soup.
Maan get numb.how he can ordered her.'Geet pls pee lo,its good for you.'his tone is pleading rather then commanding.
Geet glance him once and then finish the whole bowl quickly.
'wow iski ek baar kehne pe hi pee liya.good girl.',,she teased both while cleaning her mouth with a soft napkin. Due her wounded condition Geet get spl attention and pampring from all the members of the family. Everyone is trying to fulfill her needs before she demands.
After doing dinner Maan again come to his room to gave her medi. Geet was still thinking about the convo they indulge before its been intrupted by Somya. She wont understand he reason behind his soft behaviour. Maan went to her and help her in sitting. Although his touch disturbs her but she dosnt have any choice rather then taking his help. Maan gave her medi.
'Maan u said that u dont want to fight with me anymore. Why? Ab konsa naya game khel rae ho?',she enquired as she is suspecious about his changed behaviour.
Maan glance in her suspecious eyes. Both glance briefly,then he looked down again and put medi.in her mouth. He gave water and she gulped. Maan put aside the glass and stood up. Geet again raise her que. Her mind want ans.
'its too late Geet and nt gud 4 u.',he clenched her shoulders firmly,made her lay again and tugged under soft duvet.
'good night Geet.',,he softly wish her and turn off the lights.
Both laid but sleep is far away form their eyes. They were together but still have long distance to covered. She intrigued him. She had a temper but her gestures tempt him furiously. On the other hands her head mashedup with his wired behaviour.
Next day Maan get ready early in the morng coz he has to attend a meeting,so Samarth summoned him in a office. He is only waiting for nurse to come.
'Pls try to came as early as possible.take care of her.',Maan instructs her.
'sorry sir.'she apolozise. Maan is moving forwrd towrds the door when she stops him.'pls wait sir i need ur help. Sir bed covers change karne hai.so pls can you carry her?she suggest.
Both felt awkward. Reluctantly he lifts her and snuggled her. She shivired badly and Maan senced it. He look down at her pale and scared face,having a mark of that day.
'sister pls do it fast.',He odred her. When she done he placed her on bed again and she take a relief breath. Maan's guilt increased and he moved without meting her gaze. Nurse stopped him again and asked for help. He realy wants to escape from there but situation strucks him.
'sir i need ur help. mam ko sponge bath dena hai',,her simple req felt him like someone snatch the earth bneath his feet. His eyes widned and voice struck in throat.
'ha to wo apka kaam hai isliye apko appoint kiya hai.',his voice flattred and jaw stiffned. He felt suffocation like his neck is strangled hard.
'yes sir but mam k clothes change krne hai.so i need someone's help.aap inke husband hai isliye aap se kaha.
Maan glance at her teary eyes,which are wet from the corners. He can easily guessed how she is feeling right now. Her all bitter memories turn green in just one sec. When his touch is as detestful for her,what happnd if he do what nurse wants from him. How he can gave her more pain,he is only thinking. Nurse approach him and Geet turned her eyes off,dont want to face the humilation again. Maan's mind thinking how he made an escape form this sit. He excused nurse and leave room as quickly as he can do. He ran in whole mansion in search of his mother,but she was not available. Then he invaded in his brother's room. Somya was there,and he sighed. Maan clenched her wrist and dragged her with him. He dosnt even tell her the reason and stop only when both reached in his room.
'ye karengi apki help.'he said breathlessly.
'can any body tell me whats going on here?',Somya questioned him.
'mam maine sir se bola ki Geet mam k clothes change karne hai to ye apko bula laye.'nurse found his behaviour wiered and told to Somya.
'ye kaam to tu b kar skta tha na?',she reading his tensed face.
'bhabhi meri ek imp.meeting hai main late ho raha hu.aap pls Geet ki help kar do.',he lied to tackle the sit and leave from there. Somya help her happily.
Whole day Maan wont came back home as he is avoiding their proxcimity. Dont want to make her feel disgust with his presence. In eveng when he came back Geet was already taken her meal. Nurse leave and both are now alone in their room. Being an snooty Geet cant sit idle until she get ans of her all queries which are troubling her mind for past sevral days.
'Maan wanna ask somthing? What you want to prove?',she grabbed his attention and he looked her confusingly.she tightned her fists and collect her whole courage. Breath sharply and asked stiffly.'i mean the person who dont think for a sec before torning off my clothes that night,today pretending being so innocent in front of others why?.'her words needled him like an sharp arrow,but she herself dont remained untouched too. He hurts and his hearts bleeds but she was not in different situation. She hurt herself too by remebring the images of that night. A drop of tear escaped from the corner of her eyes. Maan looked down,as he have no clerifications of his deeds. Geet glancing at his faded faces but he stand silent. He left the room with his agony.
Maan went to terrace and shout loud as much he can and hit his both hands against the sharp edges of railing sevral times in order to hurt himself. He only asking himself why he commit that sin why why why? Meanwhile Somya who is looking for him to invite him for a dinner came here on terrace. She went near him. Suddnly she noticed his both hands were bleeding badly. She feared for him.
'Maan ye chot kaise lagi?',she asked worridly. He stick silent but when she confront him bossily,he confirmed shortly.
'no need to worry about that.',he ans flatly.
'r u mad or somthing?itna khoon beh raha hai or keh raha no need to worry.chal mere sath.',she dragged him with her to his room. Geet too noticed his injured hands and her heartbeat raised. Oozing blood from his hands made hr disturb. Somya made him sit on a bed nd search first aid box.
'bhabhi left drawer me hai.',Geet told her instantly.
Somya found it the place she tolds her. He quickly cleaned his wounds with antisecptic.'Maan maine kuchh puchha tujhse ye chot kaise lagi.',she asked him again,but Maan act stubbornly and zipped his mouth he sat like a life less body having no sence at aal. His eyes were blank.'fine dont tell me,lekin jab papa puchhenge tab to btana hi padega.'.she fed up with his annoyer behaviour.
'bhabhi mujhe bhook nahi hai.'he denied of taking his meal and facing family memebers.
'tum dono ab chhote bachhe nahi ho jo main khana le leke dono k pichhe bhagti rahungi.kabi ye to kabhi tu akhir laga kya rakha hai tum dono ne? Neeche nai aana mat aa.main tera dinner yahi bhijwa deti hu.waise b papa k samne sce create hone se to achha hai.',her patience give up,while handling two stubborn kids in a house. She burst on both as both doing tantrums and she felt tired of handling these two's annoying attitude.
Somya send his plate,but Maan not touched it. He slept without eating anything.
Next mrng Maan wake up early again coz he is concious about her medi.schedule. He stood up and wake up her too,with a smile. He wished her good mrng. Geet was shocked even more. How can he behaved so normal,sply what ever is happnd last night. Maan hurts but he accpect her bitter words and taunts as a part of his punishment so he dont think of complaint. He offered her a medi and she is gazing his face only. His dark intence eyes only reflects care and concern,having no hidden intentions at all. Geet denied taking the pills.
'Geet medi.leni to zaruri hai na',,he conviencing her like adults do with child.
'no,actualy maine to abi brush b nai kia.',she gave her reason.
'no prob.main yai krwa deta hu.',he made a move to washroom and bring small tub.placed paste on her brush and helped her in cleaning her mouth. Aftr that he dried her mouth with a small soft cotten towel. Geet again denying.'now what?',
she felt hesitated to tell him and asked for Somya.but it was too early so Maan wont disturbs her. Seeing no other option she tells him only.'i want to go washroom',she felt very hard and uncomfortable in taking his help but Maan lightened the sit.
'its ok.come.',he scooped her in his arms and take her to washroom. He left her inside and waits for her.'when u done call me,i 'll waiting for you there.'
when she was inside Maan brings some fruits for her and made them cut into a small pices. Meanwhile She called him and he bring her out. She take her medi.and Maan placed a piece of apple to her lips.
'eat it too,khali pet medi.nai lete.',Maan forced her to eat.
'now who told you this?',she raised her que.again.
'doc ne kaha hai.now c'mmon eat this.',Maan said in a authoritivly manner.
Geet dont understands how to react. She taunts him and said many bitter words still he cares for her. The smaal small works he do for it made her head spin. She never except any favour from him,not even in her imagination. It bcom so scary and wired for her.the person who loves to hurt her,today care 4 her evry single need,is dont digestable for her. She saw him amusingly. Suddnly she noticed his dinner plate which is laid on table untouched. Unknowingly her heart felt guilty. She blamed herself for his wound and sleeping empty stomach last night.
'ok i'll eat if u gave company to me.',,Geet wants him to eat somthing.
'no ye pura tumhe finish karna hai.',,he forced and denied her offer.
'i wont trust u.pata nahi kya kiya ho tumne in fruits k sath.',she know how to make him eat with her. Her words seems taunting and hard but having a hidden care for him.
'nai Geet trust me maine kuchh nai kiya hai ye bilkul safe hai.'he clearify himself but she wont agreed.
'to firr darr kyu rae ho kha lo.',,she raise her brows in a que.manner.
Maan wants her to eat so in order to clear her doubts he also eat with her. Both felt immence satisfaction seeing other eating properly. Geet felt as she repent finaly,coz she had a doubt that Maan got these wounds by hurting himself bcoz of her alligations and taunts and also slept without eating anything.but as he ate she felt peace. Reason was yet to be understands for her too.
