Hi Friends. Missed me. Well I missed you guys a lot. I am really for such a late update but please bear with me for next two weeks. I am very busy at office with loads of travelling. Hence not able to even come online.

Here is the next update and I will try to give another one as soon as possible.

Also apologies to all my friends who FFs I read. I know I am quite late and need some catching up but it will take time.

Love you all and hope these days will be over soon…sigh.

VERY IMPORTANT: No PMs for this update

Chapter 36 – Woh Hain Zara Khafa Khafa

It has been two days since Maan avoided Geet. It is not that she did not try. She even came early next day morning but Maan was not ready to relent this time. He did not know if it was right or wrong, but he felt he had that much "haq" on her that he could let her know what he felt and that too when she hurt him so badly.

Geet was beyond restless. Next day itself, she had gone to him with cup of coffee and a bright smile. But he ignored her smile completely. She tried to talk to him but he cut her briskly as he took the appointment paper – "Koi aur baat bhi hai? Anything important"

(Is there anything else? Anything important)

"Nahi Sir…woh I just want to say Sor"

"If it is nothing important I am a little busy."

With that Maan picked up the phone and asked Adi to come to his cabin.

Woh hain zara khafa khafa

To nain yun churaye hain ke ho, ho, ho

Na bol du to kya karu

Vo hans ke yun bulaye hain ke ho, ho, ho

Geet left dejected and this continued the whole day. Every time she tried to utter even a single word more, he will curtly cut her. He even left home early with others not giving her a chance to talk to him since last two evenings.

Geet's restlessness kept on increasing. She felt sad at his ignoring stance and felt more and more miserable realizing how important he has become to her. She went through so many emotions during these days from sadness to anger to self rebuke to simple yearning. She didn't even realize but how her heart had started expecting…how it had started expressing her "haq" on him

"Dusht Daanav kahin ke….samajhte kya hain apne aap ko…dekha Babaji…dekh rahe ho na…kaise tewar dikha rahe hain…kya karoon…kaise manaoon unhe"

(Devil…what does he think of himself…see Babaji….you are seeing right….how he is being difficult….what should I do….now how should I pacify him?)

Hans rahi hai chandani

Machal ke ro na du kahi

Aise koi ruthata nahi

She sat down in a huff on her chair when a drop of tear made way from her eyes.

"Aaj mana ke rahungi…don din ho gaye…lekin aaj nahi jaane dungi unhein."

(Today I will talk to him…it has been two days…today wouldn't let him go.)

Maan glanced at her through the window. He had been privy to her thoughts via myriad of emotions on her face….her ever expressive eyes told everything she felt. But this time he was firm in making her realize her mistake so that she comes out of the self demeaning mode. He only knew how he stayed away. During the day, he would just act to be stone faced and then in night his restless heart will not let him sleep.

He saw her muttering to her Babaji and then her tears. They split his heart. He got up to go and talk to her but then with great difficulty sat down. He looked at the card she had given to him and his own eyes got misty at her pain

"Kyon…khud ko itna tadpa ti ho aur mujhko bhi Geet….saha nahi jaata par tumhaare bhale ke liye yeh dard bhi sar ankhon pe."

(Why do you trouble me so much Geet and yourself too…it is so hard to bear this but for your benefit I will even do this happily.)

Yeh tera khayaal hai

Kareeb aa mere hasin

Mujhko tujhse kuch gila nahi

Baat yun banaye hain ki o, ho, ho

Woh hain zara khafa khafa

To nain yun churaye hain ke ho, ho, ho

His self talk halted when he got a call. He was surprised to hear Geet's voice "Sir, Mr. Chopra called and ask for an urgent meeting at 7:30 PM tonight."

Maan's eyebrows furrowed in thought "Lekin Mr. Chopra is out of country then…."

"Hmmm…ok ask Adi to stay back."

"Yes Sir"

7:30 PM

Geet entered Maan's cabin and started playing with her pallu. Maan just observed her but then her tinkling bangles started to melt his heart he asked her "What is it Geet? Is Mr. Chopra here and where is Adi?"

"Sir…woh…sorry sir…actually I lied. I am sorry but there is no meeting and Adi sir left for the day."

Maan was astounded and he got up abruptly. Somewhere in his heart he was happy that Geet took this much liberty with him but outwardly his eyes glowed in anger.

Geet almost cowered but then started speaking quickly "Please sir…I know this is wrong. But aap mujhe mauka hi nahi de rahe the to let me say anything. And, you can leave immediately after this. I promise I will only take few minutes."

Maan folded his arms over his chest and seeing him silent Geet continued "I am sorry sir for what happened that day in the hostel. I have even told sorry to Meera because I know I had hurt her a lot too. I have promised her that I will try my best not to…."

Maan was finding it so difficult to control his emotions. He did not know any longer what he wanted. Was it just hold her in his arms or to shout at her…how to explain to her what she meant to him. He turned around facing outside not able to hide his feelings any more.

Geet saw his back and sighed. Her eye became teary as she realized the depth of his hurt

"Maan sir…main jaanti hun ki meine aapko bahut dukh pahunchaya hai…hai na. But believe me sir…believe me that I did not mean to. I can't even think of giving you pain…I just. My whole life, people around me have taught me a certain way of life. And now, everything is so different.

Meera is right. I am not the same person. How can I be same when I have her, you and people like Daadima and Mrs. Dixit in my life. I died the day Daadima found me on the road and got a rebirth in the hostel and in this city where I found a sister, a grandmother, a mother like figure, a friend like you, Pinky, Adi, my friends at hostel…..I am surrounded by so many people who have taught me a new way of life, then how can I be same person.

I just need some time sir. But I promise to you like I promised to Meera, I will try my best to recognize this new person in me. I will try to truly move on. But I need some time sir. I can not unlearn everything I learnt in my 19 years of life in few months.

Please sir, app mujhe naraaz mat hoyiye. Aapke sahare ke bina mein yeh ladaai nahi lad sakti. I can't even think of moving a step without you by my side sir. Please apne dost ko maaf kar dijiye. I promise ki mein aise shabd phir kabhi nahi kahungi"

Aaise mat sataiye

Zara taras to khaaiye

Dil ki dhadkan mat jagaiye

Maan drank his tears as he smiled and finally turned to face her. How could he not support her…be with her and especially when she was asking him for it with so much faith.

He moved ahead and gave a small smile. He extended his hand "Pakka wala promise Geet. You will try to move ahead and not think like that. You speak what you think Geet. I don't want you to hide your feelings but just promise me that you will sincerely and genuinely try."

Kuch nahin kahunga main

Na ankhdiyan jhukaiye

Sar ko kandhe se uthaiye

Aise neend aaye hai ki hmm,

ho

Geet smiled and put her hand in his "Promise Maan Sir…pakka wala"

"Ok…ab is baat ko yahin chodte hain aur ghar chalte hain…I hope I can drop you…I mean I hope you have no problem with it as I am also just leaving."

"Well problem toh nahi hai but I will still only come if you agree to my condition"

Maan looked at the cheeky smile she was giving and asked slyly "condition…haan…ok bolo"

"You did not have your lunch and didn't even have any snack in the evening. My mom used to say that if one doesn't eat proper meals they get stomach ulcers when they grow old."

She looked down as she continued softly "As a friend, you also promise that you will try to have your lunch and never miss your snacks. Aapko apni tabiyat ka khayal rakhna chaiye Maan sir. Abhi nahi lekin aage jaake you will know its effects."

Maan was in awe at her concern for him. She really cared for him unknowingly and he sighed as he came very close to Geet and lifted her face with putting his finger under her chin "Bahut fikar hai tumhein mere budhape ki…hmmm….well dear friend, I will try my best and aayinda khayal rakhunga."

(You are very worried about my old age…hmmm… well dear friend, I will try my best and will take care in from now on.)

Geet blushed slightly "Gussa honge tab bhi…I mean koi apna gussa khane pe thodayi na nikalta hai..hai na"

(Even when you are angry….I mean you should not take out your anger on your food.)

Maan laughed out loud "Acha baba...kaha na aage se khayal rakhunga…ab ghar chalein…mujhe bahut bhuk lagi hai."

(Ok…as I said I will keep it in mind from now on. Now let's go home as I am very hungry.)

Geet smiled and said "mujhe pata hai…chalo" but not before moving to her cabin, picking her bag and taking out a banana. "aaj aap pura kha lijiye"

Maan smiled "acha…aur tumne lunch kiya hai"

(Really…and you have had your lunch?)

Geet did not answer him but the way she tried to steal her eyes, he knew the answer. "Pagli"

Maan opened the banana and gave half to her "fifty-fifty"

Geet took it shyly as they moved towards the car.

As they sat, Maan wanted to ask her why she did not have her lunch. "Is she ready for these questions though? Shayad Meera is right. It is not about what she feels about me. It is all about what she feels about herself."

He looked sideways at the girl who was looking outside the window with a small smile on her lips. He knew that she had been very restless while he was angry at her and is probably thanking her Babaji for making everything fine.

"Jhalli"

Suddenly car came to a screeching halt throwing Maan a little on the side and Geet in front. Instinctively he held her bracing her fall as she jerked backwards towards the seat.

"Sorry sir, a stray dog came in front."

Driver started the car as Maan looked at the girl hidden in his arms like a scared kitten.

"Tum thik ho Geet?"

Geet felt lost as she found herself so close to his thudding heart. Her own heartbeats rose as a blush spread her entire face. Even in the dim light, Maan could see the redness which spread even her neck and shook his head "Kya karoon mein iska…khud ke dil ki baat samajhti nahi…yeh kahan se samjhegi ki mera kya haal hai"

(What should I do with her…she doesn't understand what is in her own heart then how the hell will she understand what is in mine.)

Geet somehow controlled her racing heart and tried to come out of his embrace. She yelped slightly as she felt the tug on her hair.

Maan noticed his shirt getting parted as her hair was stuck in it.

"Mein karta hoon"

(Let me do it.)

He gently untangled her hair as she looked sideways. Holding on to her soft tresses just a little longer then required, he finally freed them as she sat upright embarrassed at what had happened.

Finally car stopped at her house and she just managed a meek murmur "Thank You sir" as she walked away.

Woh hain zara khafa khafa

To nain yun churaye hain ke ho, ho, ho, ho

Woh hain zara khafa khafa

To nain yun churaye hain ke ho, ho, ho

(Ho, ho, ho, ho, na bol du to kya karu)

(Vo hans ke yun bulaye hain ke ho, ho)

Maan sighed seeing her get in safely.

"Tumne mujhe aaj mana hi liya Mishty…apne pyaar ke haath majboor hoon….lekin I promise that one day I will remove these self demeaning thoughts permanently which you harbor inside your heart."
