LOVE IN THE AIR
Dejected, Maan left the hall leaving the happiness to fill the room. Quietly, entering his room, he picked up his file and was about to leave, when he saw Daadi coming towards him. Masking, his sorrow he gave her a slight smile, unable to control his feelings after all. " Maan.dont try to fool me. I am you Daadi. I know you in and out, are you upset bte.? Asked Daadi, caressing his face.
" No Daadi, why will I be upset.? " he said, looking away.
" Anyway, I am late for office n I have some work. So I will see you later. Bye Daadi. " he said, and hurriedly left the room not wanting anymore questions.
He hurried through, the corridor and strode down the stairs unwillingly only to get shocked as Geet was resting her head on the Yash's shoulder, looking happy. His heart pricked at the thoughts, sabotaging his feelings. Shrugging them away and controlling his emotions, he walked as fast as he could towards the door, only to be stopped by her musical and charming voice.
" Maan.? " she called out. He unwillingly stopped and turned around to see her standing behind him with a dazzling smile. Lost in her beauty, he stared at her with unconditional love, yet he couldn't get rid of the thoughts running in this mind about Geet and Yash. Getting a cold response, Geet cleared her throat to gain his attention, that's when he snapped out realizing that he was ogling at her. Composing himself, he smiled at her.
" Yes Geet.? U need anything.? " he asked pretending to be smiling.!
" No, actually I wanted to Introduce you to Yash " she said, pointing in his direction, signalling Yash to come forward. Yash, who looked like a simple outdoor guy, came towards them hurriedly and stood their with his hands around Geet's shoulder, adding to Maans miseries.
" Maan, this is Yash and Yash this is The Maan Singh Khurana aka THE MSK " Geet said giggling in her usual avatar. Maan faintly smiled seeing her laughing whole heartedly. Despite the introduction, Maan was restless as to Geet not mentioning who Yash is. His thoughts were broken when Yash held out his hands for a handshake, shrugging off all his thoughts he shook hands with him into a firm handshake.
" Maan Singh Khurana " Maan said in his usual, MSK attitude.
" Yash Malhorta " he said, smiling to which Maan gave his fake smile. Before Yaah and Geet could say anything, Maan interrupted them excusing himself out on the pretext of some important meeting, avoiding the torture once and for all. Totally depressed with the proceedings of things, Maan decided to visit his other office in London, trying to get away from his nightmares. One thing that had him worried was Daadis reaction. Later in the evening, as Maan broke out the news to Daadi, she was furious initially but being the ever sweet Daadi, she stood by him understanding his turmoil owing to the fact that Yash was in the same city, which would result in Geet spending more time with him.
It wasn't long after a quiet dinner at the mansion, that Maan left towards his room to finish up his pending work before he leaves for London, for a month. Although leaving, but his thoughts were not ready to give up on the questions his mind was shooting at him. Who was Yash ? How was he related to Geet, were the questions bothering him the most, yet he wast brave enough to question her. His thoughts were yet again, broken by a knock on his door.
" Maan.? " Geet called out, surprising him. He smiled, granting her the permission, while she glided into the room.
" Hi Geet.! How Come you are here.? ' asked Maan, trying to mask his emotions well.
" Actually, I came to you to apologize about all the mess last night, it was way too much I know.! " Geet apologized.
" Geet.! Please, don't apologize. It wasn't your fault completely. We both acted a bit immature. " said Maan, finally smiling.
" no but, it was me who started it right.? Actually... "
" Geet.! Forget it, lets just forget that we even behaved that way. "
" if you say so. " she said looking away, noticing his half packed bags.
" Are you going somewhere.?? " she said, looking back at him surprised. Well, there he was; what was he supposed to say.? He is going away cause he can't see her with someone else.?
" Yes Geet.! I am going to London, for some work. Some important work.! " he said, gloomily owing to the reason for his sudden departure.
" ohh ? All the best, I hope you have a nice trip, and come back soon " she said with a smile
" Thanks Geet.! " Maan smiled, shocked with her last line, asking him to come back soon.
" How long are you going for.? You remember, we met for the first time on our flight to London. " she said, giving an enthusiastic smile .
" I am going for over a month or so. Of course I remember our first meeting. How can I forget that.? You were praying and all cribbing.! Adorable like always. " he said smiling, remembering the old days, while she was standing with her mouth hanging open.
" You are going for a month.?? Why.? " she asked., to which he obviously had no answer.
"Some important work has cropped up Geet. I have to go,the staff cant take care of it Geet. " he said, hiding his pain n looking away.
" Should I tell him, what I had come to tell him.? " she thought, while Maan got busy in his file.
" when are you going Maan.? " she asked expectantly.
" Tomorrow morning " he said, not looking at her, to which her face fell even more. How will she tell him now.?
" Oh.! " Was all she could say.
Precap : What was Geet going to tell Maan.? Will she now.?
