MG ff: Teri Meri Prem Kahani#2 (prt-29, pg 100) - Page 36

Maan: I have to go to office, raaste me mai tumhe ghar drop kar duga.

Geet: Lekin mujhe bhi to aapke saath office aana hai.

Maan: Nahi tumhe aaj office aane ki jarurat nahi hai, I can take care of the meeting.

Geet didn't say anything as she sensed that he was angry and if she says anything then it would make the situation worse; moreover she didn't want him to get angry with her. So she agreed. Both drove to the Khurana Mansion first, Maan dropped Geet there and then headed to KC. Maan came to his cabin and seated angrily on his chair. He frustratingly slammed his fist on the table.

Maan (enraged): Why I am not able to control myself?...Why?...Why?

He ran his hand through his hairs. He was angry as he wasn't able to comprehend any of the answers that his heart was continuously echoing. It seems to him that nothing was under his control, everything his slipping from his hand; his peace, heart, mind, tranquility, everything. He was feeling as if his heart was mocking at him. He furiously ran his hand on the table throwing everything. Thankfully, his cabin was sound proof, otherwise his office staff would be on a shivering trip without any fault. Maan stood up from his chair and went towards the window.

Maan (determinedly with raging eyes): Bas ab or nahi. No one can control my life. I won't let her affect me. Now everything will be professional between us, just professional.

Then he heard a knock and Adi came inside his cabin. His eyes popped out seeing the messy cabin. He started shivering.

Adi (frighteningly mumbled): Mu'mujhe ch..choood dijiye Yaaamduut ji.

Adi was so scared that he didn't even listened Maan's voice.

Maan: Adi'. Adi (angrily) I am talking to you, tumhara dhyan kaha hai?

Adi (stammering and shivering): I'I'aam ss..sorry Sir.

Maan waited for some time for Adi to speak, but poor Adi was so much scared that he forgot why he came here. Maan was so much frustrated now.

Maan (thought while rolling his eyes): Waha wo Geet or yaha ye Adi, ye dono milke ek din mujhe pagal kar dege.

Maan (sternly): Adi why are you here?

Adi (coming to senses): Sir w'wo project p..papers par aapke s'sign chahiye the.

Maan took the papers and signed them.

Maan: Send someone in to clear this mess.

Adi: Ok Sir.

With that Maan marched from there. Now Adi was alone in Maan's cabin. He observed the cabin carefully, he saw few drops of dried blood on the table glass. He gasped, he for once thought to tell Geet but stopped as she would be very tensed. So he decided to tell all this to Vicky. He called Vicky and told him everything.

Back to Geet, she was sitting in her room and was thinking about their close moments. Her cheeks turned beet root reviving all the beautiful memories of their closeness.

Geet (to herself, smiling): Thank you Babaji. Ab mujhe yakeen ho raha hai ki Maan Sir ek na ek din mere pyar ko samajhege or mujhe apna lege. Bas Babaji wo din jaldi le aaiye.

She then looked at his photo on the table. She moved to take that photo but she found a file lying under the table. She took the file and opened it and was surprised to see that. She then put the file in the cupboard.

Back to Maan, here Maan was sitting alone in his private room in his office. Vicky, after knowing that Maan was hurt, barged in the room with a first aid kit. Maan was sitting on the couch with his eyes closed. He heard someone barging in the room but didn't open his eyes, as he knew that only Vicky could dare to do that. Vicky came to him and looked at his hand had scratches and blood was oozing out of them. He heart bleed, he could bear anything but his Bro hurting, never in this life time. He bent on his knees and took his hand in his. He applied antiseptic cream on that.

Vicky (painfully): Bro aap aise kyu karte hai? Agar kuch problem hai to mujhe bataiye, hum dono milke solve karege.

Maan didn't say anything, nor did he open his eyes. Vicky continued again.

Vicky: Bro aapne kabhi socha bhi hai ki aapki aisi halat dekh kar Dadima ko kitna dukh hoga. Or Bhabhi, wo kitni hurt hogi aapko aise dekh kar.

When Maan heard him talking about Geet, his anger instantly rose, neither on Vicky nor on Geet, but on himself, that why he was reacting in such a manner. Reacting like this would only prove that she affects him, and he wanted to falsify everything that proves her effect on him. Maan stood up from his chair, Vicky too stood up.

Maan (blankly): Lets go Vicky. Aaj tumhara first day hai. You must be tired.

Maan marched from there leaving Vicky to follow him. Vicky looked at Maan trying to comprehend everything. Now the picture was clear to him.

Vicky (to himself, smiling): Bro aap chahe jitna bhi na kar lo, jitna bhi chupa lo, lekin aap is baat ko badal nahi sakte ki aapko Bhabhi se pyar ho raha hai. The Great Maan Singh Khurana, who hates love to the core, is falling in love with his wife. Intresting Bro.

Vicky quickly followed him and both headed for home. Back to mansion, here Dadima was busy in reading some magzine, while Geet was busy in the kitchen. Maan and Vicky came, Dadima smiled and came to them.

Dadima: Aap dono aa gaye. Vicky beta Maan ne aap se jyada kaam to nahi karwaya.

Maan: Dadima you are supposed to say ki aaj Vicky ne kuch kaam kiya bhi ya nahi.

Dadima chuckled while Vicky pouted.

Dadima (to Maan): Achha hi hai, nahi to aap ise bhi apni tarah workaholic bana dege.

Vicky smiled and gave a high-five to Dadima. Maan rolled his eyes and went from there. Dinner went well. Maan didn't talk much to Geet, she didn't bother him as she thought he might be tired. Next day, Maan went to office early, while Vicky and Geet came later. Geet sensed a change in Maan, as he didn't talk much to her and whatever he talked was only related to project, but she shrugged it off thinking he might be busy as it was an important project. Then she remembered something and went to Maan in his cabin. She entered his cabin thinking how to start the convo. She wasn't sure whether he would agree or not. Maan sensed her when she entered but didn't look at her for once. He even sensed her reluctance, but didn't say anything.

Geet: Umm..Maan Sir'wo mujhe aaj half day chahiye.

Maan (looked at her): And may I ask why?

Geet: Wo..mujhe kuch important kaam hai.

Maan suspiciously looked at her. She continued.

Geet: Wo..I am not well, mujhe doctor ke paas jaana hai.

The moment he heard she was not well, he got anxious. He felt that his heart was melting inside. But he soon controlled himself.

Maan: Hmm..

Geet became happy but didn't show that to him. She moved from there and when she was about to step out of the cabin, she heard Maan's voice.
