CHAPTER 4
"Of course I remember you Chaashni," Maan said, reading the
bewildered expression on Geet's face.
"Errr... I... Ummm Hi Mmm-Maan Sss-Sir," Geet replied
gulping hard, not really knowing what to say.
"Oh please!!! Skip the formality Geet," Maan said,
leaning against his table, in front of Geet. "We're not in class. So!!! It's
Maan for you" he told her. "Like it has always been,"
he added.
"Errr... Yea. I mean ok," she said meekly. Ok!!! So he's not mad at you. Chill!!! Or
could it be that he suffers from split personality disorder, she thought
worriedly. Some time back, he literally threw her out of his class and now he's
being all good???!!!
"You're a grown up girl Chaashni," Maan said scanning her
from top to bottom. "I swear I didn't recognize you,"
he confessed. "If you didn't tell me your name, pakka main tumhe pehchaan nahi
pata,"
he told her.
See!!! He didn't recognize you, Geet
realised sadly.
"I
really can't believe we're meeting after so long. I mean I didn't think we
would meet after..." He stopped as he thought about her.
Great!!! He is still stuck at her,
she thought miserably.
"Ummm
Maan, woh Sam aur a..." She tried saying but she was cut by him.
"I'm over that phase Geet!!! Let's not talk about that. Please!!!"
He urged her.
Of course he's lying!!! Didn't he just
think about her??? Liar!!! Geet told herself.
"Yea
sure!!! I...I understand," she replied. As if I was dying to talk about her. "I... I would have never thought,
not even in my wildest dreams, that, that you'd be here, as my Professor,"
Geet said after few seconds. "I mean... Singer se seedhe professor???!!!
What a radical shift!!!" Geet laughed slightly, trying to lighten
the atmosphere but he stiffened. She noticed that. She wondered why.
"Aisa
kyun kiya Maan???" She tried asking.
"What
did I do??? Kuch bhi toh nahi," he chose to ignore her question.
"Woh... Didn't you want to become a singer... I remember you had got a
break. Sa... I mean she did tell me, toh phir yeh sab???" Now she
was curious as well.
"Geet
please!!! I told you I don't wanna talk about that phase of my life,"
he reminded her.
So it had to do with Sam, she confirmed her doubts. She wondered what could
have happened though.
"Y-yea.
I remember," she replied.
"And
waise bhi, Professor na banta toh apni Chaashni se dobara Kaise milta,"
he joked, winking at her as he poked her dimples. Well, some habits never die.
"Please Chaashni mat bulayiye. Already sab ko Mera asli naam pata chal
gaya ab Chaashni keh ke embarrass mat kijiye. Sab mera mazaaq uraaenge,"
she explained, in a complaining tone.
"You've
really grown up Chaashni... Oops I mean Geet," Maan teased her.
"Yeh
kya grown up grown up laga rakha hai???!!! Of course I'm big. Hamesha toh bachi
nahi rahoongi na," she replied irritatingly as she stood on her
feet. I'm NOT a SMALL girl Maan!!! Na tab
aur na ab, she wanted to scream out to him but her voice died inside.
"Woah!!!
I guess I triggered the wrong chord. Ok fine!!! Nahi bulaaoonga and yes you're
not a kid. Itna toh dikh hi raha hai mujhe," he said.
"And tumhein dekh ke, I'm sure all guys line up after you, haina???" He
said with a wink.
Yea!!! All... Just not you, she
thought with a shrug.
"Kuch
bhi!!! Ok I'm going, I have quite a few questions to answer," she
told him realising her friends must be waiting for her with their oh-so-many
questions. "So see you," she added making her way towards the
door.
"Areh
Chaa... I mean Geet, wait," Maan stopped her from behind. "Wait
for me in the evening. Coffee pe chalte hai. Issi bahane we'll catch up. Kya
Khayal hai???" He suggested.
"Errr..."
Geet hesitated. Itna kya soch rahi hai
Geet!!! It's NOT a DATE!!! Just a casual coffee. Coffee peeyo baatein karo aur
ghar chalo. It's not a big deal. Haan Bol de. "Ummm o-ok," she
replied.
"Good
so my last lecture finishes at 4 pm today. I'll wait for you in the
parking area. Meet me there. Ok???"
"Hmmm,"
she nodded positively. Yeh kya kardi
Geet??? Apne doston ke baare mein nahi socha??? You go home with them daily. Ab
Kya bolegi, she kept thinking, cursing herself for accepting on the spot as
she made her way towards the canteen.
*****************
"What???"
Geet asked as 5 pairs of eyes eyes her.
"Don't you think that we should be asking that???" Jiya threw
her question back at her.
"Errr...woh...,"
Geet fumbled.
"See!!! She's at a loss of words," Sid remarked.
"Abhi
bhi dekho toh how she's hesitating," Dhruv added, looking at her
accusingly.
"Haan
Geet!!! Aisa kyun kiya???" Nikki said her part. "Tumhaara
Naam Geetika hai aur yeh hamein aaj pata chala, woh bhi Professor se. Hum toh
Tere dost hai na," she complained sadly while all looked at her in
disbelief. Was she serious???
"Areh!!!
What's in a name Nikki???" Vicky seizure this opportunity to
divert their attention. He, definitely, didn't want to be grilled next. "Don't
you know what Shakes..." He continued only to be cut off by Pari.
"Do
you know Dreamy from before Geet???" Pari asked
straight-forwardly.
"Eeerrr...
Woh..." She didn't know how to say it but the sooner she said, the
better. "Errr... Actually... He used to be Sam's boyfriend... So...
Issiliye..." She said in a low voice.
"Ohhh"
all sighed.
"Issiliye
you reacted like that on seeing him," Jiya concluded.
"React
se yaad aaya... Oye lafandar, Tu kyun hairaan ho gaya tha???" Pari
asked, eyeing him suspiciously, causing all to draw their attention to him.
"Woh...
Actually... The professor... Woh... He's my Bro..." He replied.
"What???!!!"
All exclaimed.
"Chal jhoota. Maan ka koyi Bhai nahi hai," Geet said
immediately.
"Maaannn???!!!" All looked at her.
"Mera
matlab Sir... Maan Sir!!! Unka toh koyi Bhai nahi hai," she said
*correcting* herself.
"Wohi
toh!!! I clearly remember he told me that he's the only child of his late parents...
Toh yeh Bhai kahan se paida huwa," Pari added pointing towards
Vicky.
"Tere
Paas to Khuranas ka tag bhi nahi hai," Sid added referring to his
surname.
"Well,
biologically we're not brothers yet we are brothers," he said.
"Matlab???"
All quizzed.
"Basically
we're first cousins on the maternal side. His mom and my mom are non-identical
twins. Aur shaadi ke baad, mom and dad settled in the UK. So, I only knew him
through Skype conversations and the rare visits we made to India. And then kuch
5 ya 6 Saal pehle, when he came to UK for his PhD, we kinda got close.
Initially thoda akdu akdu sa rehta tha... Pata nahi kyun," he
remarked as all listened to him keenly.
But Geet knew why... Of course it was
because of the Sam fiasco. But she knew better than to reveal.
"2
years back, when my Dad passed away, Mom decided to return to India. So hum
wapaas chale aaye but Bro stayed back. He said that he didn't like it here. Aur
phir few months back, jab unke Dadima bimaar pad gayi toh Mom aur mein Khurana
Mansion mein shift hogaye because unke Paas aur koyi nahi hai. So on her
insistence, we started living with her. And yehi kuch hafte pehle, after much
persuasion from Mom and Dadima, Bro decided to return. Dadima didn't want to
entrust Khurana Constructions to anyone except Bro. So, because of that he
agreed to return after much convincing but on the condition that he'll continue
with his lecturing work at the same time to which Dadima agreed. Actually KC
toh bas ek bahaana tha. Dadima wanted bro to be by her side... Issiliye unhon
ne aisa kaha. But I swear Bro didn't mention that he will be providing his
assistance here. Although he knew that I study here. I guess he wanted to
surprise me... Maybe," Vicky concluded as he finished with his
long story, mentally making a note to ask him about that at home.
"Tera
Bhai toh Jack nikla lafandar... Unlike you obviously," she
taunted. "Professor, Business Man aur woh bhi tha na... Singer!!! By the
way... Singer se yaad aaya... Unhone woh kyun chora???" She inquired.
"Mujhe
Kya pata yaar???!!! Teri tarah Sab ka biodata apne sar mein leke nahi ghoomta
main. Aur bhi zaroori Kaam hai mere," he replied, playfully
winking at the girl who was sitting around the table in front of them.
"Tere
kaunsi zaroori Kaam hai, hamein ache se pata hai," Dhruv said as
he caught sight of what he did while the girls just rolled their eyes at Vicky.
Kabhi nahi sudharne waala yeh...
"Well!!!
I guess we should make a move... Chalo... Geet ke yahan chalte hai and then
dinner ke baad apne apne ghar chalte hai. What say???" Sid
proposed while Geet choked on her drink.
"Aaram
se Geet!!!" Jiya said, patting her back.
"Woh...
Ghar kyun chalenge abhi??? I mean we have our Human Resources Management class
in 15 minutes," Geet reminded him. Baaki ka baad mein dekhenge. "So, class mein chalte hai... Chalo
chalo chalo," she said, standing up.
"HRM
ka class cancel ho gayi Geet," Nikki informed her. "So
for today, we don't have any class in the afternoon."
"Oh!!!"
"So!!! What are we waiting for??? Let's get going," Dhruv
said as he got up.
"Errr
Dhruv... Woh..." Geet hesitated, gulping hard.
"What
happened???" Vicky asked.
"Actually
tum log jaao. Nikki aur Jiya ke pass chaabi hai. Mujhe kuch Kaam hai," she
said trying her best to avert their gaze.
"Kya
Kaam hai??? As far as I recall, we don't have any pending assignment," Jiya
reminded her.
"Woh...
Maan asked me to have coffee with him after class so I am waiting for him," she
said in one go.
"What???!!!"
Six persons exclaimed, as they registered what she just said while Geet
nervously flashed a smile at them.
