Part 85
Maan politely takes it but doesn't drink
The girl finds it interesting
Thoda peeche padti hai ki piyo piyo
Maan thoda bahana karta hai, topic change karta hai
Girl ko laga ki iske mazze lete hain
Kab tak nahi piyega
Pine ke baad what will he do?
Maan idhar udhar ho leta hai
Thodi der baad wo for aa kar chipak jati hai, aas paas ke logo ko bhi involve kar leti hai ki
‘Let’s all drink to this!’
‘Cheers!!’
Atee hi ho rahi thi ki wo glass lekar almost Maan ke muh mein daal degi
Achanak another hand comes and snatches away the drink and hands a glass of juice instead
G- I am sorry… he can't drink…it’s my fault
Girl-Who are you?
G-Oh hi. Dr Geet Handa. Nice to meet you
Girl is like what the hell! As of this info is any useful
Girl(loudly)-And why can't he drink... pray tell
Girl ka aim hai koi to zaleel hoga aaj ki raat
G-Coz he is supposed to drive me back to the hospital…and he can't drink and drive
Girl-Well then maybe you should toast in his place
Girls taunts annoyingly
G-Oh I can't. After all I am a doctor, I have to be on duty…can't drink and operate on people. It’s a big no-no
Geet says in condescending voice as if explaining to a child
The girl is fuming
Girl-Then why don't you just drive yourself away from here.We are having fun with Maan here
G-Oh I would, but like you I don't have a license and need Maan to drive me around
Geet smiles after throwing the sweet dagger at the girl
Girl -humph!!
The girl walks away fast
Maan is impressed
M-I didn’t expect you to be here
He says to Geet
G-Well you look so handsome in a tux. I thought I'll come and see the live thing
She says with her usual dry humor
He smiles at her wit
M-And who did you come with?
G-Moi? I am with the ah… medical staff…
Maan raises his eyebrow
G - Well no one was checking for invites if you come in through the kitchen
He laughs and half hugs Geet bringing her along for a round
Geet reaches out and straightens Maan’s bow tie (it became crooked when that woman was forcing him to drink)
She frowns and shows her finger to him
Her nail is little discolored
M -Kya hua?
G-This is my special nail polish
Maan is surprised and looks back the innocent looking glass of champagne he had been offered
G-It’s probably not that affective …maybe Viagra level
Glass ki cheena jhapti mein a drop of the champagne fell on her finger
Maan reaches for the glass.
M-I wonder if we should let it go to waste or not....
Geet raises her eyebrow
G-Well I don't actually have night duty today… but...
Maan puts the glass back and let's it spill
M-But we don't need it
He completes his sentence with a mischief ladden smile
+++++++++
Geet has moved in with Maan
And uska naya hospital (where Maan got her the interview)waha par kaam chalu ho gay hai
She has built a very good rapport and image very quickly there
Idhar Maan ki maa 1-2 baari faint ho chuki hai
Mom has grown even more hot tempered
Maan par chillana, throwing things around…tantrums …sab bhad gaya hai coz she doesn't feel good and Maan didn't listen to her
Mom ki family (the person she married & her step kids) bhi uske tantrums zyada sunte nahi
Bass Maan hi Mom ki sunta hai coz she is the only family he has
Mom will regularly call him at oddest times or drop at Maan’s place or office unannounced. Jab bhi mom ka mann kare
+++++++
Geet had reached home and was going to enter the home when she hears the usual yelling and things falling
Geet andar aayi
Mom- Ye lo! Bas isi ki kami thi! Huh!!!
Keh kar she leaves
