MG FF- ABHI NAHIN AANA THREAD #2 - Page 4

He paid the bill and dropped her in front of her college. She ran inside to the parking waving him a quick bye. He checked the time... already 10 minutes past 7. He sighed... he had to get to some stupid party!!!

Geet rushed home only to find her dad waiting for her restlessly.

"Geet...where were you? Do you really want to go or not?"

Geet knew mohinder was a little mad at her or else he would never address her as Geet. she didn't even speak anything, rather rushed to her room to get ready. She took a quick shower and stood in front of her wardrobe, trying to select a perfect party wear. She breathed n sharply... that khurana guy was going to be there. She shook her head and dropped the towel she had around her head on the carpet. She put on a knee length off shoulder gown and hurriedly combed her wet hair. Nisha came in to check and what she saw made her blood boil.

"ye kya pehen rakha hain? Do you even know how to dress for a party?", she screamed at Geet.

[what are you wearing? Do you even know how to dress for a party?]

She rolled her eyes and murmured to herself, "she started again!!!"

Stop murmuring and change into this..."

Geet looked at the grey georgette sari that nisha had shoved into her hands and made a face, "Chachi...sari??? ewww its so old fashioned!"

"shut up.. or else I will make sure you are grounded for a week now.."

"but Chachi..."

"parkati... do as I say!"

She made all kinds of faces... sari and for Geet handa? Definitely not. But then nisha was stubborn as well. Geet came out wearing the sari and nisha just couldn't stop admiring. She pulled her and made her sit in front of the mirror, "dekha kitni pyaari lag rahi hain meri parkati..", she took the comb and brushed her hair and made a face, "bas ye baal thoda badha le parkati am telling you...zyada khubsurat dikhegi..."

[see how pretty my parkati is looking... just that grow your hair a little longer you will look even prettier.]

Geet managed to bear all that drama keeping her mouth shut just so that she could go to the party and teaches that khurana a lesson. Mohinder was awed seeing his daughter in a beautiful sari, descending down the stairs, looking more beautiful than a fairy. He had never imagined his daughter like this and then his eyes fel on nisha having a wide grin plastered on her face. He laughed... nisha is the only person who can make Geet handa do things beyond her will. He smiled at nisha, appreciating her for the hard work and hugged Geet, "you are looking beautiful princess..."

Geet twisted her lips, "I look like a ragged beggar..."

She shut up instantly seeing nisha glare at her and looked away. She was totally uncomfortable in that outfit but then she couldn't have done much. nisha probably had kissed her more than 1000 times before they left. She sighed and braced herself to meet that jerk and make things even between them as they neared the venue.

There was a huge crowd waiting to see a glimpse of maan singh khurana as he stepped down his car. There were corporate leaders, fashion divas, press and lot more. Adi handled them with the security as he walked in with pride oozing out of his every move. His sense of dressing, his way of speaking everything seemed to scream out his sky high reputation in the society. He talked to a few people and the press and then his eyes fell on arjun. He smiled and hugged him. they had a little chat here and there when arjun got a call from his dad. He excused himself and walked to the other side while maan held his drink and stood with adi at a corner, watching everyone. Adi was briefing him of the projects they were handling, the clients present at the venue and then of the handas who had just arrived. He rolled his eyes...handas! he was reminded of the meeting in Paris... he could vaguely remember adi telling him of the handa daughter going there. He had refused to meet her. he was or say is probably too busy with Geet in his thoughts to think of anyone else. It was anyways good that he didn't meet her or else he would have been cursed for insulting a woman. But then he had read the received document and Mr handa had personally called him to look into it. he sounded quite proud and happy that day. He sighed and looked at the time. It was just 8:30... he had left Geet in her college just an hour earlier but he missed her. he wished if she was there...he wished he could see her and thats when he heard some faint whispers which eventually grew louder. He wondered what was wrong...everyone's attention seemed to be focussed at one point.

Adi adjusted his specs, "I think its the handas sir..."

He sipped his drink and waited for the crows to move away a bit. Not that he was really interested but someone else managed to catch everyone's attention even in the presence of maan singh khurana was definitely something he was looking forward to. Adi went ahead to check on what was going on and came back smiling. Maan looked at him quizzically.

"Miss handa has come sir with her father today..."

Adi was totally impressed with Geet in that brief meeting in Paris and he was extremely happy to see her here as well. not adi but even others were awestruck seeing such a beautiful girl being the heiress to all the handa properties. She looked absolutely stunning in that sparkly gray sari with the backless blouse and her demeanour was something too attractive.

"Miss handa is here?", maan was surprised. He might get to see her today...as if he cared! His heart was stuck with someone else and one other seemed to hold his attention for a long time. The crowd cleared a bit and adi went ahead to greet Geet. she knew how to speak to whom and seeing adi there, she was sure that khurana fellow was there. She shook hands with him as they spoke and walked around slowly, away from the crowd and thats when adi saw maan looking at them. He couldn't even read his expression.. was he shocked? Or was he happy? Or what? He was confused and so was maan. He had never imagined Geet to be here and like this... she looked absolutely stunning in that beautiful sari... probably he had just forgotten to breathe. They came nearer when adi spoke up, "sir... this is Miss handa.. Geet handa.. and ma'am..."

Before he could speak further, someone called him from behind. He looked back for a moment and Geet totally jumped on him, hugging, surprising all around who saw them.

"ohh god hotshot... I didn't knew you'd be here.. tumne mujhe bataya nahin you were coming?"

It took him some time to register the fact that the beautiful angel standing in front of him was none other than Geet handa herself... he spoke mentally again, "Geet,,,Handa!"

Geet was totally thrilled to see her hotshot there and she didn't even knew why she was so happy about it all of a sudden when she had just seen him an hour back. She was scared to attend a boring party for she didn't know anyone well but then seeing her hotshot there gave her the boost to walk ahead. She looked at him, all lost and in a deep thought.

He was reminded of the time when adi told about miss handa who had come to see him that day in Paris.. he was even told that she came to visit him the next day as well but he had already left. He could very well remember taking her out on her birthday, their dance, their kiss... he stilled for a while! how stupid was he to have not thought of asking Geet who she was and not meeting miss handa that day. And here she stood in front of him... smiling, making him skip a few beats here and there, looking absolutely marvellous. Her voice broke his chain of thoughts.

"hey can you please stop staring at me like that hotshot... its embarrassing."

He snapped back to reality and looked at her blinking his lashes and took the liberty of pulling her closer by her waist, "no no... you look absolutely beautiful sweetheart..."

People saw that instant flare in them and burned in jealousy while mohinder was quite happy that Geet was going well with maan khurana.

"stop trying to make fun of me okay... can you believe it.. Geet handa and in sari??? Yuck... disgusting..."

They walked to a lone place casually... too casually for others.

"not at all Geet... am being honest with you. You are looking too beautiful."

She couldn't help but look at him hearing that honest confession from him. he is the only person who called her beautiful.. not once but twice now. He looked so honest that she had to believe it. they spent the whole evening together, away from people, away from everyone around. The ones who were supposed to get msk's attention were let down so badly and tthey cursed Geet for that. but then the duo could care less. They loved the time they spent together. arjun was surprised to see them so close. Even he wanted to grab Geet's attention but he was held up. He was this weakness for the paparazzi and he couldn't even avoid clients. Maan checked the time and decided to leave. She made a baby face.

"sorry sweety... I have to catch a flight early morning tomorrow... have to leave"

"kahan jaa rahe ho? Aur mujhe bataya kyun nahi?", she literally screamed at him, not wanting to be left alone in this party. She seemed to forget about the khurana guy altogether.

[where are you going? And why haven't you told me yet?]

Ohh boy, he was totally floored by her dominance. He absolutely loved the way she was getting angry... it felt all so cute and everything jut for him!!! he leaned closer and placed a peck on her cheeks, "going to Bangalore for a few days baby... got something important.."

She turned away angrily, "yeah right and here I was thinking of us going for coffee tomorrow after my college...how dare you keep busy when you are with Geet handa? "

He felt he'd faint right there. He was loving this dominant side of hers so much. he had never experienced being dominated by someone but with her things had always been different. He wanted to kiss her sugar sweet mouth right there... his heart was beating so fast just with her words, he wondered what it would be like to discover the secrets of her heart.

"then come with me!", he spoke huskily, into her ears. she shuddered a bit and shot him a glare, "yeah then you attend classes on my behalf hotshot..."

"come on Geet.. I will be back in a week.. I ever knew you'd miss me so much already... Geet handa! The offer is still open babe... come with me then.."

She twisted her lips and walked away, "remember hotshot... Geet kabhi kisi ke peechey nahin jaati... log Geet ke peechey aate hain...bye"

[remember hotshot... Geet never follows anyone... people follow Geet...bye]

Her attitude was cold, ruthless but even in that he didn't how he seemed to find pleasure... may be because it was only for him... just him.

------------------------------------------

He didn't even realize when his days seemed brighter... or nights excitingly sleepless. One week in Bangalore... and he was in bliss unlike other times. There were women throwing themselves at him but he didn't even look at them. He was probably going crazy he thought because nothing but Geet seemed to occupy his mind. they have hardly met 10 times and she seemed to have gained controlled over a part of his life. he would time and again remember their meeting in the bar in Paris where he had advised her on her project and who knew she'd use it against him. adi somehow realized that maan had changed a bit... tiny mini bit but he did. She had called him once in between and he just couldn't hide his happiness. He didn't know what was wrong with him... he hadn't ever felt something like this in his entire life and he didn't knew what was the feel but whatever it was... he loved it. he wanted to sit with her on a coffee shop and listen to all of her talks... her bitching about girls... her swearing at people..he was just too excited to get back to delhi and meet her again.

But things were different with Geet. she became even more focussed on her career. Though she liked spending time with her hotshot but that was it. it was limited to the time they were together. she even took off from college and accompanied her dad to meetings, learning his way of working, dealing with people... there were times when she'd highly disagree with the opinions of the clients but since she wasn't directly involved in the office matters, she had to keep her mouth shut. She was just an apprentice and somewhere she had started feeling suffocated with that 'apprentice' tag around her. she wanted to get directly involved in the office matters... mohinder knew that well but he wanted to groom her well.

That evening Geet came back with a real bad mood and threw the files on the table. Nisha ran out hearing the noises and saw Geet totally red.

"Geet.. kya hua beta? Sab theek tho hain...?"

[Geet... what happened beta? Is everything fine?]

Geet didn't even bother to answer. She ran up to her room and shut it with a bang. Nisha was a little worried seeing Geet so angry. It was just the matter of seconds when mohinger came in calling for Geet.

"Geet apne kamre mein hain, " nisha replied, "kya baat hain bhaisahab... kuch hua hain kya? She is too angry..."

[Geet is in her room...what happened bhaisahab...did something happen? She is too angry...]

Mohinder sat on the couch and gulped down the glass of water. Nisha sat beside him, waiting for him to answer.
"I disagreed with her on a proposal made by a client. Apparently she had some issues with that but I disagreed... "

Nisha sighed, "she has to learn a lot. She is only a kid bhaisahab...and kids are highly impulsive. Give her some time to calm down and understand your point of view..."

She saw a forlorn father all of a sudden. She leaned closer and pressed her hand on hers, "aap aur kitne din chupayenge ye baat bachon se? They have to know it right..."

[for how long are you going to hide this thing from the kids? They have to know it right...]

He looked at nisha and then looked down, "I don't want to burden my princesses with anything now nisha..", he breathed in sharply, lifting his spirits, "its just a minor heart problem jo jald hi theek ho jayega... so don't stress yourself. Jaake zara dekho madam ka gussa kum hua ke nahi.."

[its just a minor heart problem which is going to be okay soon... so don't don't stress yourself. Go and see whether madam has calmed down or not]

"but bhaisahab... how long are you going to hide it? its worrying me a lot..."

"nisha... don't worry about me. I bet I can live enough to see both my princesses getting married and settling down happily... go and check on Geet."

Nisha sighed and went to see Geet. she knew mohinder's biggest dream was to see his daughter's getting married but then his health was worrying her as well.

Maan landed in delhi and the first thing he did was to rush home and hug his mom. Avantika was surprised to see maan so happy... genuinely happy...in fact very happy.

"maan...kya baat hain beta...itne khush lag rahe hain aap aaj?! Kaam kaisa tha?"

[maan whats the matter beta... you look so happy today! How was your work?]

"am okay ma... I am happy... but honestly I don't know why!"

Avantika sat on the bed while maan lied down on the bed, keeping his head on her lap, "I feel so light... i.. I really don't have a real strong reason to be... but I am happy."

Avantika knew maan would only lower his barrier when he connected himself too emotionally to someone.

"do you want to tell me anything about it?"

He thought for a while and then shook his head for a no, "nahi... I will tell you when the time comes."

He kissed her cheek and ran to his room. He couldn't wait to speak to her..see her. gosh... he was actually being a despo. Geet was right... but then there was this fact as well that no other woman had ever made him feel like this... imagine..The Maan Singh Khurana going after someone so desperately... but then thats what 'certain feelings'(wink wink) do to you right! he hasn't seen her for one whole week... he instantly dialled her number.

Geet sat in front of her laptop, checking some documents from the office, totally irritated. Her dad didn't support her...in front of the clients!!! She had never felt this let down before. She thought at least her dad would be right beside her no matter what and this rejection was a huge blow to her big fat ego. She pressed the keys mercilessly until her phone buzzed. She was even more irritated. She was in no mood to talk to anyone. She ignored it not even once checking the caller. There was silence for a while and her phone buzzed again. She was just too irritated.. she picked the phone to throw it away when her eyes fell on the caller id. She didn't know why she just couldn't proceed with her action. There was this unknown trust building within them that she decided to speak to him.

"hello...", she spoke angrily.

Maan wondered what was wrong with that tone of hers, "hey Geet... you okay? You seem too angry sweetheart.."

"you bet I am hotshot... this is too much. honestly... I wont even feel guilty if I murder someone right now."

"woah... calm down tiger... baat karni hain?", he asked her calmly. He knew she was upset about something.

[woah... calm down tiger... you wanna talk?]

She sighed, "hmm...not now..."

"will be waiting in the coffee shop... the same place where we had been last.. in 15 minutes!"

"I said not now...", she shouted but then stopped midway, "...hey are you back?"

"umm... I want to see you there..in next 15 minutes and we can speak."

She looked at the time and then shut the laptop angrily, "am coming..."

She disconnected the call and threw away the pillow angrily, that she held. Nisha just entered and saw her setting her dress.

"Geet... shaant ho ja beta... you should think..."

"am going Chachi...", she spoke, wearing her watch and keeping her purse.

"but Geet... its already 8 now..where are you going at this time? I know you are angry but.."

"bye Chachi...dont wait for me...", she was in no mood to listen to anyone. She didn't even hear nisha and walked out. Nisha was worried as to what Geet was upto.. she ran after her, "geet...stop... you are not going anywhere now. Geet..."

Geet heard none. She ran down the stairs and walked across mohinder who was watching tv after changing. She didn't even look at him, nor did he stop her. nisha ran down shouting for her and she just walked away.

"don't stop her nisha...let her go!", mohinder intruded.

"but its already 8..kahan jaa rahi hain bataya bhi nahin... I am scared for her..."

[but its already 8... she didn't even say where she was going... I am scared for her..]

"jaane do usey. She needs to clear her mind and think rationally. Gusse mein business nahin chalaya jaata. I know she will be fine. Lets have dinner. Am famished!"

[let her go. She needs to clear her mind and think rationally. Business cant be run in anger. I know she will be fine. Lets have dinner. Am famished!]

Nisha sighed... she knew mohinder's motive behind this little harsh demeanour but then she was really worried for Geet. she served dinner for mohinder abut couldn't eat herself.

Geet drove out angrily, speeding up. Everything in the office played in her mind... how could her own dad oppose her like that? cant he see the profit the company shall gain from this? And he was so harsh to her in front of the clients... she almost missed hitting a car and stopped right in front of the coffee shop. she carried her purse and ran inside, knowing exactly where her hotshot must be sitting. And she was right. he was sitting at the corner most place... is favourite and the same place where they had sat last.

He looked at her... for the first time feeling something within him. she looked so pretty... but her anger filled face spoke another story. He was worried seeing her this angry. She pulled the chair roughly and sat with a thump. How he had wished the first thing he'd do is to hug her tightly but then seeing her this upset...he knew there must be definitely something wrong. He ordered her favourite Americano and held her hands softly.

"Geet... calm down. Things can never be sorted out in anger!"

She looked up at him instantly... how does he know when to speak what? She was awed by this ability of his! She took a sharp breath in, trying to calm herself. She was seeing him after one whole week. She was happy...of course she was. But then she didn't even try to give him a weak smile. She was upset and there was no hiding.

"phew... so when did you come back?"

"aaj hi lauta hoon... reached home at 5... how was your week?"

[came back today itself... reahed home at 5...how was your week?]

"hectic... I am assisting dad in his work along with college... its tiring."

He smiled and spoke genuinely to her, "miss busy handa... you seem to learn a lot lately hmm..."

The waiter served their orders and left. The whole evening they talked about everything except the reason why she was upset. He didn't ask and she never bothered to answer as well. they spoke everything except the bitter things... they spoke of their college... their work... their lives and Geet seemed to calm down a bit... a lot of it!!!
