Part 11
In the month of December, where the snow have spread its feathers in the entire city, and the Christmas spirit was all over the cold climate, people were in the mood to celebrate as Christmas is around... Khurana Constructions is not an exception, except a few...
Geet: And on the evening of 14th there is a Christmas event in Umed Khurana's Place. The Christmas party of Salon "Royal Residence" is in the afternoon of the 19th. And the following evening is the Christmas party of the HR department. And on the 22rd is...
Maan: I WONT GO... WHO THE HELL DECIDED WE NEED CHRISTMAS EVENTS AT ALL?!
Geet: The whole world is getting more and more excited about Christmas. But my boss is getting more and more angry. Hmpf... after all he is a Vampire...Christmas in India isn't connected to any religious feeling. But it seems that it's bad for him anyway.
Maan: A party on 24th? Which idiot came up with this?!
Geet: Idiot? It's the party for the charity organisation supported by congress man Patil... of course President Khurana and the manager will be there but you...
Maan: I won't...
Geet: Last year when I wasn't his secretary, I wondered why the director was never seen out socializing during December, but this year will be different. I am his secretary! And it is my duty to take care of his well: being! I wonder how much an Indian style Christmas could harm him... It's impossible that the people's religious piety is what's keeping him shut inside, and yet...
Geet remembers the incident happened during their Church turned restaurant visit, and the effect of that on Maan. Her thoughts drifted to how she was ready to offer her blood and the way Maan sucked her blood. Geet blush with her thoughts...
Maan: Ms Handa?
Geet: Yes sir!!!
Maan: Take care of these materials here... These documents have to be ready by tomorrow. Make a very clean copy of this paper here. Take these documents and make a data sheet of them.
Once Geet is out of Maan's cabin... Now's not the time to think of such things... after all, maybe he doesn't go out because he has too much work...Geet follows the instructions of Maan... It was by chance that I learned the Director is a Vampire. It's been three months since he threatened me to make me remain on my job. But I am doing my best in my work as his secretary and I feel that he's beginning to trust me a lot more than before on the important issues. Maan sir is selfish, arrogant and ruthless but he values me as a secretary. He understood the reason behind my look. He was able to understand the feelings of insecurity towards my looks too... I don't want to betray his trust.
Meanwhile a girl enters the office,
Girl: Hai Maan!
Maan comes outside and escort the girl inside his cabin...
Geet: I don't need to become like them. I know that they are his Meals. I don't want to indulge in such feelings... and that won't happen again. I won't let him be in such danger again that he'd need my blood. I WILL PROTECT THE DIRECTOR AT ANY COST! (Geet with a determined look)

Geet: It's Sunaina's turn today... he's taking his meals once every four days now... let's see, next is... (Our very dedicated Geet Handa have made a Schedule for Maan's meals too) What??? No meals scheduled right before or after the Christmas?
Same time, Sunaina and Maan walks out of his cabin together.
Sunaina: But why can't we meet? It's Christmas!
Maan: I told you, I'm busy.
Sunaina: Well then, make that secretary you're so proud of to adjust your schedule!
Geet: What!!! So Proud??? She stood there as if she heard nothing...
Seeing Maan being silent, the girl said: Okay I understand. I am sorry.
Maan: Good girl!
Once the girl is gone... Inside Maan's Cabin
Geet: Director! Do you have any meals arrangements for the period around Christmas? (Maan looks straight at Geet) Excuse me for bringing up this, but after the 20th, you have more than a week without any scheduled Meals and...
Maan: I don't have plans.
Geet: Eh???
Maan: I don't meet with women around the Christmas. If I do, they inevitably start thinking they're special. It's a bother.
Geet: But if you don't have any meals...
Maan: I can hold out for one week.
Geet: Then you'll spend Christmas with your family?
Maan: Why the hell would I?
Geet (shocked): Then you'll be alone for Christmas? That's right... he has nobody...
Maan: If I say I would, then what would you do?
Geet: Me?
Maan: You work every day with me, until late night, so you can't have any time left for dating. Then what are your plans for Christmas?
Geet (With one of her Stupid Expression): Ah... fortunately, a few days ago, the President asked me about my plans and I already had some things planned... he he...
Maan: But I bet, she'll spend it with her mother... (Maan give her a straight look) speaking of which... I decided to attend the party of Congress man Patil...
Geet: Patil?
Maan: And you're coming with me.
Geet: THE CHARITY PARTY ON 24TH? WHO??? ME?
Maan: If I ask anyone else, it'll only be trouble. (Maan with a smirk) I'll choose your clothes for the event. You'll be my partner for the evening, so we have to do something about your looks!
While Geet was fuming hearing his comments...I told him I had plans... but you... you...
Once Geet is back to her home, she said what happened in her office today to her mother,
Geet: and that's what happened. I m sorry mom. He's pestering me to because he is going to spend Christmas alone.
Rano: Don't worry about me. I'll spend it with the people from my shop.
Geet: That darn director, he's terrible...
Rano: don't you feel sorry for him instead?
Geet: what? Do you? Why does he have to but in such an important holiday...
Rano: I know what you mean, but.. (Rano serves her dinner) he says he hates Christmas but still makes you go to a Christmas event with him, you know he's acting like a child, isn't it cute?
Geet: No...(Rano reminds her to have her food) Not cute at all... but she has a point... he keeps saying how much he hates Christmas events... but I'm sure he just wants to annoy me... director...
