PART-28

Maan walked on right in the middle of the hall and stood in front of Meera. He knew he was answerable to all but he had to answer his geetu first. His geetu had waited for many years. It is time to give her back what had always belonged to her hoping she accepts it...his heart.

Maan:"I know Meera you have a lot of questions in your mind and somewhere Geet is answerable to all of you. But it had been all because of e. It was I..."

"MAAN!!!"

A loud gasp from Geet stopped him from as she came and stood in front of him glaring down him. Maan found his old cute geetu hidden behind today's Geet Handa.

Geet:"Maan, I have waited enough. Before you utter another word I want my answers. This had started between us so today also it will be only between us. I will answer my friends later but you have to answer me first. "

Maan:"What do you want to know?"

Geet:"Come with me."

Geet turned towards her friends and said," Guys I will come and explain you everything. But right now I and Maan need to talk. And please remember that we are here to enjoy sangeet for Adi bhai and pinky, so don't ruin things for them. You guys continue. I will be back."

She took the stairs leading upstairs while Maan followed her quietly. It was so unusual to find Maan Singh Khurana follow someone obediently.

Geet did not stop on the first floor but continued walking till she reached the terrace. She stood near the edge when Maan cleared his throat loudly.

Maan: "Geet..."

Geet:"What were you about to do downstairs Maan?"

Maan:"I was about to do what I have should have done Geet. You had answered and explained on my behalf for years. I.."

Geet: "hmm. So why so much concern Mr. Khurana? After all I am the s**t who threw myself at you remember?"

Maan:" GEET!!"

Geet:" Or do you have some new lucrative offers for me Mr. Khurana?"

Maan flinched finding his sweet and innocent Geetu turning so cynical. He knew he was the cause still getting a hold on his emotions Maan said, "Geetu I know I have hurt you..."

Geet:"HURT!! You have no idea what hurt is Maan. I had loved you. In spite of everything I had loved you. I had accepted all your conditions and had lied to my friends for you. Till today no one knew about you. But what did you give me in return? You called me a bloody wh**e...you humiliated me and made a mockery of my love...and now after four years you get time to come to me. You didn't search for me. It is only when we happen to cross our paths you find time to confront me. You are a coward Maan Singh Khurana...you are a bloody coward..."

Maan stayed quiet. A part of him thought to walk away without explaining. He had always done that. Whenever he was wrongly judged he never explained himself. Inside his tough exterior still that little boy existed who wanted his acceptance in his own family no matter if he is a winner or looser. Maan however knew that he cannot walk away now. Geetu is too precious and he can change himself if he can get her back into his life again.

Maan sighed and spoke," Geetu, I know I have done a lot of mistakes. I won't say sorry because sorry won't suffice the pain you had gone through in these few years. But can you just not listen to me for old times' sake? All I ask from you is to listen to my side of story. I promise I won't force you to be with me after that. But please, I beg of you to listen to me."

He was The Maan Singh Khurana, richest man of India. He is someone who can buy anything and everything yet today he was a beggar in front of this one girl. This one girl had the powers to bring him onto his knees. Geet watched maan intently. She knew he was sincere.

She was reminded of samaira's words I can't tell you the reason Geet. I had promised Maan I won't. But when he comes to tell you the truth do listen before judging him. All his life everybody had judged him without a fair trial. Even yesterday, Dev did not give him a chance to explain himself and bashed him. Dev is right in his reaction as your brother, friend yet in all these he stopped being Maan's brother. Don't repeat that Geet, please. Whether you decide to walk with him or away from him will be yours decision completely and I won't try influencing that. But listen to him, let him try at least.'

She said in a cold voice," Okay Maan, go on. Tell me what was more important than my love that you could hurt me so brutally..."

Maan raised his head slowly and stood up. He looked straight into her eyes and started telling her the entire story of how he was blackmailed to hurt her and leave her, how in spite of not having anyone beside him maan never ever stopped trying and how finally he turned into a ruthless monster. At last he said," I know Geetu, I have wronged you. I don't deserve to be with you after hurting you. But the truth is that it had always been only you. I would have left my house that day had that sorry excuse of human being not threatened me with your future, your family's future. I could still remember how bad you felt just knowing you were the reason your parents took loan. I could imagine how bad you would have felt knowing your family got destroyed because of our love. I was just a no one then. I did not have the power to fight against The Abhisekh Khurana."

There was an eerie silence again. Geet was amazed to see tears in maan's eyes. This maan who had always been a pillar of strength for everyone showed his vulnerability to her and that awoke the tenderness she always felt in his presence. Geet was about to raise her hand to wipe off the tears when she remembered her own ordeal and steeled her heart again.

Maan saw every exchange of emotions in her soulful eyes and sighed. He spoke again," Geetu, I cannot undo what I have already done. I cannot return you back the four years which we have lost. I cannot take my words back. I had never meant a single word; I just pretended that I did. I know it hurt Geetu but you were not the only one. For the past four years I had not had one peaceful night. I was haunted every moment by your last look of utter disgust. I had drowned myself into work. I was as alone as you were. Sam became a good friend of mine. She was also burning in guilt like me. You were the most important, most precious to me in this entire world Geetu and to give you that kind of hurt had cost me a part of myself. It feels like I had lost a part of myself as well the day I lost you. Please Geetu, come back in my life. Please..."

Geet was also shedding silent tears as maan was. They both were burnt in love and such burns leaves marks in one's soul. Somewhere a part of geet rested peacefully knowing maan was not a cheater, that maan's love was as pure as hers. Yet the hurt was there.

Geet:"Why didn't you inform me Maan? Why u took all the decisions alone?"

Maan smiled though smiling took a lot of effort. He knew his geetu will ask him exactly this one question. He said in a low voice," I did not want you guilty Geetu. I did not want you to be ashamed of loving me because our love had brought your family in that juncture. I had seen how much you are adored in your family. You were the princess of your family. Only a person who had no family in spite of having one can understand how precious family is. I never wanted you to be in a position where you cannot meet your papaji's eyes Geetu."

Geet could not hold on any longer. For four years she had hold onto her emotions. She broke down crying bitterly and started hitting Maan with her tiny fists. Maan let her do what she wanted but when he sensed how vulnerable she was he gathered her in his arms. After four years they found the solace of each other's arms. Maan hel her tightly hiding her face in the crook of her neck letting his own tears flow again. Geet continued crying while maan tried soothing her patting her back.

Minutes passed by as both could feel her sobs subside and reluctantly he let her go. He wiped her tears off and she did the same for him.

Geet:" You look very bad when you cry."

Maan smiled and said," And you look like a small kid when you cry."

Geet:" Why, Maan?"

Maan:" Why what Geetu?"

Geet:" Why did this happen to us Maan? I have never ever thought badly about anyone. Then why did God punish me this way?"

Maan's heart ached to watch her be so unsure about herself knowing very well it was he himself who is the reason behind her insecurities.

Maan held her by her shoulders and pulled her close and stated in a firm voice," Listen to me Geetu. No matter what your decision will be about us but remember this always. What happened to us was in our destiny and maybe the work of a crooked man who wanted to destroy me. You are nowhere at fault sweetheart. You are the most innocent and beautiful person I have ever met Geetu. Your goodness radiates from your being. You can even inspire a bad man to be a better person. So never ever even for single moment blame yourself sweety?"

Geet's eyes watered again hearing soothing words from him. His words were truly a balm to her open wounds. Maan cold sense her being over emotional so he placed a tender kiss on her fore head and asked in an unsure voice," So Geetu, tell me. Do I have a chance to be with you again? Do you have it in you to forgive me for my sins and accept me back again?"

Geet sighed. Her heart knew she can never be with anyone other than the man standing in front of her. Loving Maan had never been a choice but a deep necessity like the intake of air to breathe.

Geet said in a low voice," I had always believed that trust is more important than love in a relationship Maan. In spite of you hurting me I could never really stop loving you. I did try to hate ou for initial few months but had failed miserably and then I had stopped trying. But maan trust is different. I can no longer trust you man. When I left you carrying my bleeding heart I could save only my love for you. I cannot trust you maan."

Maan:" You mean you have a fear that I will fall in love with someone else or cheat you or something?"

Geet:"Not that trust maan. I know you won't. I am the only one for you just like you are the only one for me. But the truth is I can still remember the hurt I felt by your words. That day something in me had snapped and I could never be me again Maan. I cannot trust you maan not to hurt me again? No matter what this fear that you can hurt me again will always be there maan. No matter what you do this insecurity will be lurking in the corner of my mind that maybe..."

Maan:"Maybe what geet? Maybe you are not the right choice for me?"

Geet:" Maybe I really never belonged in your world."

Maan:"You were the one to teach me that there is no such thing as your world and my world. We all have only one world and for me you are my world geet. This Maan Singh Khurana who can get anything he wants needs nothing else but you. You are my reason to be me Geet. You were the one to teach me to live Geet. Don't leave me when I have finally learnt it."

Geet: "But that Geet is dead Maan, and you have killed her."

Maan flinched with the intensity of her words and brought her close. He did not know what came over him but he held her face raising her chin a bit and kept his lips on hers. Geet resisted a bit but could not resist that passion inside her. She let go of her resistence nad soon her hands raised and went behind his shoulder as she fisted his hairs with one hand. Maan brought her closer probing her to open her mouth which she did. He explored the crevices of her mouth letting her sweet unique taste seep into his being. Soon Geet turned aggressive biting his lips trying to quench her need and punish him for his deeds. Maan opened hs mouth realizing she wanted so. Geet for the first time explored the insides of his mouth so intimately as maan pulled her closer not even allowing air to pass through. It was as if they had been merged as omne.

When they were both breatheless they let go of each others' lips as they sucked in the much needed air.

Maan pressed his lips lightly on her fore head kissing them and then he kissed her both eyes which were mirror to her soul. Licking away the tears that sprang from her eyes he said in the deep baritone of his," geetu I know I have wronged you yet strangely only I can make it right. I know the hurt is deep but I will spend my entire lifetime healing it. Whatever you say, deep inside you are still my old geetu and I will bring you back. I know you don't trust me now but one day you will trust me and I will make sure about that."

He left her and slowly walked away. Geet after years felt loved for, cared for by the man she had loved. But most importantly she felt alive again. Smiling softly she said to herself, " Maan I will wait for you to win my trust again. This is one a war I can win by only loosing myself to you."

The evening ended on a different note with few souls desperately waiting for a new dawn for different reasons.
