" I'm so sorry ...I was stuck in meetings that's why couldnt came ..." he said sadly...
" you didn't even call..."
" I was so busy you know na...this new project taking troll of me ..."

" ...don't you have time for me " she asked hurt by his behaviour...
" Geet I thought you understand me ..you know how busy I'm still I came today just to meet you and you talking like this ...I know it's your workless friends right ? ..." She didn't like him talking about her friends that way ...
" nehi woh " ...
" forget this look what I get for you..."
he gave her a box happily... she opened it and saw a beautiful neck chain with a diamond pendant... he eagerly waiting for her reaction ...
" I brought this for you ..." He picked up the chain and made her wear it ...
" wow you look beautiful.. aj yehi pehenke jana college main ...everyone should know your boyfriend is one in million ...".
she tried to smile but that didn't reach her eyes but next moment he gives her a bunch of roses...
" and also this for my most Beautiful girl " her favourite roses she hugged him tightly finally feeling happy that he actually thinks for her and love her...

" what are you wearing ...? kitni baar kaha tumse yellow don't suit you at all its makes you look pale " he said frowning.. clearly disappointed with her choice ...she looked at herself ...is she looking that bad but her mother said she looking like a flower...

" so what will you eat ? "
" hmm Burger ..you know yahatin ki burger bohot yummy hai ek baar khaoge toh ..."
" Burger hell no " He cut her in mid ..." Geet how many times I told you , don't eat junk foods ...you already gaining weight ...do you know how ugly you will look if you gain more ...now you should start dieting...let's eat something else..." he ordered something not caring to look at her gloomy face ...

" again you messed up ...who told you to wear this white dress and more of this red duppata ...how many times I told you red makes you look fat ...pheli impression hi kharab kardi no wonder Mom reacted that way.."
she couldn't believe he actually blaming her ...there his mother literary insulted her ..her parents in some angel that too in front of him he didn't open his mouth to defend her other than trying to distract his mother to change the topic and their he is blaming her forget about sorry ...
" no wonder Mom rejects you...you actually deserve this rejection..." saying he starts the car...in whole journey both keep quiet..when she about to enter her house he hugged her ...
" hey Geet don't worry I love you ..and I will convince Mom at any cost ..I will take you to Mom that way.. that she won't be able to reject you I promise ..."
she came out from his embrace and told simply..." you don't have to ...it's over "
he laughed clearly not taking it seriously ...she took off his neck chain which he gave in her birthday...
" I don't deserve it " she gave it to his hand " I am capable of doing something better in life other than become your beautiful trophy wife ..."
" Geet I understand you are hurt but "
" Good bye " ...
" you are rejecting me ...are you out of your mind ...no one can love you or understand you like me ..you would be nothing without me ...I'm your Only One ...you would never find someone better than ..."
" i m only taking this biggest rejection as a blessing..." saying she went to house with high head no tears came of and surprisingly she felt better ..." *****************************************
After 5 years
" Its old saying there is a woman behind every successful man but surprisingly in my case they are two... one my Dadima and other my wife Geet ...My Dadima alone brought me up to face the world , always guided me to go further ... my wife who came my life when i was nothing ...when i thought i can't achieve anything she gave me courage ... held me at every step trust me like no one need ...help me to overcome my fear to become more strong and now only because of them I'm here .. Thanks everyone to come here to our reception to give us blessing..."
All clapped and Dadima hugged them wiping happy tears ..." hamesha khush rahiye "
All came and congratulate them ... after sometime she heard Maan saying .. " Geet please chalo na bhag jate hai piche ki darwaje se ..." He hold her hand to drag her toward back exit ...
" Maan yeh aap kya kar rahe ho...hum apne reception ko aise nehi chorke ja sakte..." but she knows how stubborn he is " aree Dadima ke baree main toh socheye "
" Dadima would be more than happy ...Dadima ko toh bas abb grand children chahiya aur hum uske preparation hi karne ja rahe hai ... "
Geet blushed at his remark ..." oops this red shy wife I so want to eat you right now " ...He gave a small kiss to her check and start nuzzling her neck ...
" Maan stop it ..we are middle of party ..."
" no you won't till you agree of my escape plan...and trust me baby I don't mind doing this PDA ..." ..he was about to kiss her again when someone came to congratulate them...
" congratulation Mr and Mrs Khurana ..wish you both a happy married life " Geet smiled ...
" Thanks Mr Chopra ..."
just then Maan got a call and went from there ...
" you looking gorgeous in this saree Geet " Dev said honestly as soon as Maan went from there ...Geet looked at him surprised...' red makes you fat' She shrug of that memory...
" thank you " she simply said ...
" I'm really sorry ..."
Geet don't get why he saying sorry ..." that night I didn't take stand for you and then Mom rejected you I simply stood there ...I hurt you so much Geet I'm really sorry .. please forgiv..."
" you don't have to say sorry Dev its 5 years and I moved on ..."
" I know its 5 years but still that night .. you must be cursing me remembering that ..."
Geet stop him " I never cursed you Dev and why should I even I m thankful to you ...if you didn't take me to meet your family I would never know how you people are and how much I deserve better ...I was living in illusion called love... I totally forget myself .. start doing everything as per your choice you used to control my food , dress , friends in fact everything in name of boyfriend ...i didn't even realise when I lost my self respect also...but that night changed everything i got myself again and I will always thankful to you for that "
she looked at Maan is talking to Dadima about something and a smiled came automatically... Dev noticed and said slowly ..." you love him !!"
" yes I love him more than anything..." she said without taking eyes from her husband who now taking Dadima upstairs ...
" he is lucky..."
" we are lucky to have each other "
" Geet I'm happy for you but please be careful your husband achieved so much in small time ... you know it's business world and money can change..."
" I am proud of my husband..you know Dev you always told me in business connection is more important but the truth is only hard work needed nothing else ..you were already a business man I mean you got it from your father but Maan had nothing he started with zero but today he is where no one can ever reach him... only because of his hard work ...he told earlier that i helped him in every step but truth is he helped me to know myself better to trust myself ...never doubt at my capability always treat me as equal not some trophy or a beautiful furniture... I'm glad to be his strength not weakness ... my husband can't be compare to anyone ...he is my Only One ..."
" hey baby let's go to dance floor " Maan said as leading her to dance ...
something pinched at Dev seeing Geet more of all hearing her side ...first time he felt he lost something...
" I hate this man " Maan said angrily...
" Maan "
" what ? "
" I love you " she gave a kiss to his check he melt right there but still asked ..." do you regret this life with me "
" you are my only one... I'm blessed to have you in my life ...thanks Maan for letting me in your life " she hugged him feeling content ...
" I love you too ...thanks for coming in my life ...and being with me as my strength "
