Part 12
plz leave me thoda lamba wala comment na..
not that one liner
He scanned her top & bottom.. umm so thats how she maintains herself.
He added bit of salt & ample seasoning to suit his taste.
She cleared the kitchen & went to the room while he spend his Sunday afternoon glancing through paper & surfing the TV channels.
****************
It was another get together at his place. Geet preferred to avoid the party. They were having a heated conversation while Geet came down to get her dinner. She smiled weakly at every one & went to kitchen straight to get her salad.
Azaan their parties official chef was taking out hot - hot crispy chicken from the grill. He smiled & offered her. One of her fav dish otherwise. She looked at it for a while.
wo diet pe hain pari said
MK raised a brow & looked at her.
He was already little tipsy & was in a cheesy mode. He trembled over few glasses & managed to reach near her. He took a yummy roasted piece standing rt infront of her. He indulged into the tangy flavour & pushed it closer to her nose, tantalizing her senses. She cupped the salad bowl closer dipping her head.
It was ok.. she could have it.. but then she fought back her urges. It was not religious or any norms holding her back it was her own will. All this years she learned pleasure & pain, salvation & bondage, everything is under the control of mind & to keep the mind in control the inner self have to be pure. Purity of food is most important in keeping the mind pure. Sour, sweet & bitter food excites the senses, increases instability in the mind causing anxiety & losing control. Its not the matter of just this time.. or just once but wat she feared was the anxiousness or restlessness that will follow.
She took her bowl & slowly walked back to her room leaving him with the tasty piece of meat which felt tasteless.
vicky (one of the frds) asked ' tum hi bolo Geet aaj kal sati hota hain kya?
Geet panicked even hearing that term. The color of her face faded
Rahul came beside her & walked her to sit with them
rahul's girl niti said ' bolo na Geet, how is it in our country?
sam added ' ladkiyan abhi bhi pati ko parmeshwar type manti hain na?
vicky - seriously!!!
Niti ' these guys r just making fun of all our tradition
Vicky ' bullshit no way sati!!!
Geet gasped sati
Maan fell of laughing almost choking with the chicken in his mouth.. she doesn't even know wat it means. Come on yaar half of the Indian society doesn't know wat it actually means he concluded finishing his chicken.
Geet continued to look at the bowl in her hand blankly
Rahul took the table cloth & put it around his head ' aacha tum hi batvo, kya tumhari jaisi ladki.. meri jaisen.. niti kicked him
ok..ok.. he corrected himself
MK jaisen.. iss bevden ..
dammit he is a dam shrewd, calculative benden ko
vicky added in all full on kamine insan ko aapna pati parmeshwar manegi?
Geet looked at him who was coolly chewing onto the meat
sam laughed ' trust me Geet I have practically spend my whole life with him.. but I won't trust him
he grind proudly.. well thats me!! the grt MSK
vicky laughed at sam ' off course !!! how can she
bachpan se saat hain, he still can't make up his mind to take those vows
Geet said painfully ' vows!!
darkness of it consumed her.
all that is garbage & no one follows it he said making another drink for himself
mano tho sab kuch, na mano tho kuch bhi nahi
thats all she said leaving every one to ponder
she reached into the room & kept the bowl aside like she lost all the appetite. She was not sure why all that disturbed her. Before she could think further she felt herself being turned around to meet his dazed confused eyes!!
bas!! he said fuming angrily hovering inches away from her face. His breath carrying the stink of chicken & alcohol.
She searched his eyes that reflected her own restlessness
bas.. na mano tho kuch nahi?
She didn't want to speak to him especially like this.. he was drunk holding her like that by her arms
she snapped away
he turned her with a jerk holding her arms squeezing in annoyance
answer me dammit
ask me when u r sober she stated simply turning her face side ways
by then vicky & rahul came up ' mk chodna yaar
his grip only got harder on her arm. She didn't flinch just stood their numb not bothering to look at him. He shook her wildly while his frds struggled to loosen his hold & took him away.
Thanks for the lovely comments
lots of love
