INTRODUCTION( past of Ram and Vikram)
Vikram and Ram were childhood friends. They were neighbors. They completed their school together and they entered together in college too.Ram’s mother expired when he was fifteen years old.he was only son of his parents. Vikram’s mother Savitri Khurana gave him the love of a mother and Ram always respected her as her mother. Vikram had a sister too and Ram loved her like his own sister. Her name was Sujata.Though both families were not too rich but they were doing well. they all lived like a family. Ram’s father fell ill after his mother expired as he couldn’t wear the loss of his wife. Both Vikram’s father and Ram’s father were in same construction business. Ram’s father couldn’t concentrate on his business so gradually it went down.Vikram’s father morally supported his friend but all went in vain.He too passed away when Ram was in college. He was all alone now in this world But Khurana family supported him well in his bad phase of life
Ram and Vikram both had knowledge of their family business. They were planning to do MBA in business management after their graduation so that they can manage their parental business.
It was there third year in college. And they met two new enteries-Those were Priya and Neha. Both girls were good friends from school.Ram and Vikram saw them and instantly fell for them.They tried to be their friends, Neha and Priya didn’t need new friends so didn’t give them any importance to both boys were later all became friends.
Once Ram and Vikram talked to each other and told about their love. Thank God they didn’t love the same girl.Ram loved Priya and Vikram loved Neha.and they proposed them .to their surprise they got yes in return as girls were too feeling for them
Ram and Vikram completed their graduation and took admission in MBA. Till they completed their MBA ,Priya and Neha too completed their Graduation. During their MBA both friends decided to start a joint Venture with the name KMC-ie. Khurana Malhotra constructions. Vikram explained his father about their plan and he supported them with all his capacity and merzed his business too with them. Soon Both friends laid the foundation of KMC.Ram had a office which his father used as his office .He opened that office and both started their work from there only.Vikram’s father introduced them to his clients.and they started to get small works.Both were hardworking so output of there hardwork was taking shape.
Vikram’s father wanted Vikram to get married and then he came to know that his both sons were in love and he without any delay talked to girls’ parents.Neha’s parents were ready but Priya’s parents were not as Ram had no one and his business too didn’t exist they only knew that he was working with Khuranas but Vikram’s father made them realize that Ram was partner with them and was a hardworking guy and was going to get success. Priya’s parents were not much convinced but seeing their daughter’s love for Ram they got agreed.
Both friends got married to two best friends.Life was going on smoothly. Sujata too got married to an NRI and was now settled in US
After one and half year neha got pregnant and all were happy for Vikram and Neha.
Once Savitri asked Priya-Priya when you will give good news to us. Is maamle me apni friend ka saath nahin dogi.
Priya shied at this but Neha found some sadness in her eyes.she asked when Her MIL wasn’t around-Priya what happened ? why are you sad?
Priya-Nothing Neha .I m fine.
Neha-Priya I m your friend. Tell me what happened.
Priya-Neha we have stopped using any protection from last six months .still I m not conceiving.
Neha-Arrey ! isme itna pareshan hone wali kya baat hai.kabhi kabhi ho jata hai. don’t worry sab theek ho jaayega,and Priya nodded at this.
It was 20 February 1987
Neha started to get labor pain. Vikram called Ram and asked him to take out the Maruti 800 which they bought recently.Ram drove them to the hospital. There she gave birth to a boy.All were very happy to get that news. At the naming ceremony Sujata couldn’t make it so Neha asked Priya to name her son and Priya called him Maan-The pride of two families.
Maan was growing under the love of his dadi and two mothers.Priya still couldn’t conceive.She loved Maan as her own son.Maan used to call her chhoti maa.Maan was now the apple of their eyes.he was little bit matured as compared to his age.
Their business was doing very well and they were doing their work with honesty.By this their margin of profit was not much but they had earned a name in their business.They started to rebuilt their old houses,Though both were neighbors so they did their renovation together .and there stood two mansions after two years-KM(Khurana Mansion) and MM (Malhotra Mansion)
Neha and Vikram forced Ram and priya to go thru the medical check up to know the reason why priya wasn’t able to conceive. But their all reports were normal. Gradually Priya lost all the hopes to be a mother, and gave all her love to Maan
Maan was six years old when his grandfather passed away from a massive heart attack.Maan was little bit shocked to lose his daddu as he loved him too much.he became introvert after that.
After few days Vikram asked Neha for planning the another child but Neha refused by saying-Vikram.I don’t want another child.You can see Priya, how sad she looks always. If we plan another child her inferiority complex will increase only.I will plan my second child only after priya conceives. You know their reports are absolutely normal.
Vikram knew it if Neha had decided something ,no one could force her to change her decision. Somewhere he too felt bad for his friend.Maan was again becoming normal .he was coming out of the sorrow of the loss of his daddu.
Maan was seven now. He was in class one .one day Priya and Neha were chatting In KM while savitri was listening to their talks. Suddenly Priya fainted and Neha and Savitriji were worried to see her. They called Dr.
Dr. arrived and after checking her up she declaired- She is pregnant
And Neha and Savitriji couldn’t believe it-Are you sure?
Dr.- off course Mrs.Khurana
Savitriji nasked Ram and Vikram to come home immediately. They were worried at this and soon reached KM.There they found Neha and Savitriji preparing sweet dish.
Vikram-Maa what happened?
Neha-Vikram I m going to be badi maa
Vikram and Ram looked at Neha with confusion-Badi maa?
Neha-Hmm.. look there.. and both looked where she asked them to look-Priya was sitting there with her flushed face.
And they both got it .
Vikram hugged his friend tight-Ram I m so happy for you. We were waiting for this news.
Maan reached home and found everyone happy-Maa kya hua ? why are you so happy?
Neha lifted maan in her lap and told him giving a hard kiss-Maan soon you will get a doll for you to play with.
Vikram-How do you know that it will be a girl .
Neha-No.. I know that we will get a girl .
Maam-When she will come?
Neha-she will come on your next birthday.
Maan-You mean she will be my birthday gift?
Neha-Haan baba.
Savitriji-Neha I know that you are very excited but why are you giving him false hopes.Maan she will not come exactly on your birthday. She will come around your birthday.
Maan-Okey.but if she comes on my birthday then she will be my birthday gift.
Priya-Maan whenever she comes she will be your doll only. par tumhari maa ko pakka thode hi pata hai ki doll hi hogi.It can be a boy also.
Neha-Okey baba you all are right.Ladka ho ya ladki.koi phark nahin hai.but still I know that we will get a girl.
All laughed to see Neha’s craziness.
Precap-Past continues
Part-2
All were taking care of Priya as she was having some problems in her pregnency.It was fourth month of her pregnancy. Neha was forcing Priya to eat some fruits.But she was not interested at all.
Neha-You know Priya If you will not eat them our doll will born weak, and I dion’t want my daughter to be weak.You know I m thinking something.
Priya-What?
Neha-Priya if you have a girl which I m sure you will have,I will make her my D..
before Neha could complete her sentence Priya shrieked-AAhh
Neha-Kya hua?
Priya-I felt the movement.
Neha-Really? and she put her hand on her stomach-Hollo Gudia
And she too felt that movement.
Both friends giggled to see each other.
Neha-Priya Now I m sure you will have a girl.You saw when I said Hello she responded.
Priya-Neha Yaar you are really crazy.Itni pagal to tum tab bhi nahin thi Jab Maan aane wala tha.
Neha-Now that’s a secret between me and my doll.
Priya-What secret?
Neha-Hmmm… No now I m not in mood to tell you.
And both got busy in their talk.
At night Neha was talking to Vikram-Vikram.You know ,today priya’s baby moved and I felt her.
Vikram-Wow.that’s good news.
Neha-Vikram I have decided something.I will make Priya’s daughter my DIL.dosti ek rishte me bandh jaayegi to achchha rahega na.
Vikram-Not a bad idea.
Savitriji who came there for some work listened to them and said-Neha Let the baby come first.We don’t even know if it will be a girl or boy.And why are you in such a hurry?It’s not that I don’t like your idea.It will be a wonderful relation between all of us.But It’s not good to bind two persons in a relationship.Let them grow first.and then let them decide what they want. May be after growing up they won’t like to accept your decision. ya phir unhen koi aur pasand aa jaaye.Think about yourself , You love Vikram but what would you have done if your parents already had decided someone else for you.
Neha thought for some time “I think you are right maa,It is too early to say something.
Savitriji-Let them grow like two indevisuals and see what they want.
Vikram and Neha nodded at this. And left it on time.But neha silently prayed God to fulfill her wish.
Priya’s delivery was due on 5th march 95.Means two weeks after Maan’s birthday.Maan heard it and was sad to know that doll wasn’t coming on his birthday.
Time was flying very fast. KMC was a well known construction company and their business had it’sbranches in other countries too and it was easy for them to handle as both friends were very cooperative to each other .Ram and Vikram were taking care of their business in abroad turn by turn . one of them used to go there when they were needed there.
Maan’s 8th birthday was after six days , and Vikram had to go to see their business in Dubai as Priya needed Ram at this stage of her pregnancy. Dubai is known for shopping so Neha couldn’t stop herself from going with Vikram. She asked Priya if she was comfortable and Priya assured her that she was fine.and Neha after being assured about Priya .left for Dubai as she wanted to shop for the doll too.
It was 18th feb. and unfortunately Vikram and neha’s stay extended in Dubai for two day that means They will not be able to come on Maan’s birthday.Maan knew about it and he was hell angry on his parents.
Neha talked with Maan and he cried on phone-Maa you lied to me .First you said that doll will come on my birthday .But she is not coming on my birthday. Now you are saying that you too are not coming here on my birthday.Then why did you go? I will not cut the cake if you and dad are not here.you always tell a lie, and Neha was sad to hear her son.
She talked Vikram-Vikram I think we should go back.Maan is very sensitive. He is hurt that we will not be there on his birthday. He is refusing to even cut the cake without us.
Vikram “Neha I will try to complete my work as soon as possible but earliest we can leave on the morning of 20th Feb.We will reach home by the evening.
Neha-No problem Vikram.I will tell Ram to arrange a small party on 20thevening. Maan will be happy if we reach there on his birthday.
Vikram informed Ram about the same.And Ram told Maan about the arrival of his parents on his birthday.
It was 20th Feb.Ram had arranged a small party in the evening. Maan was happily waiting for his parents.
But that evening Instead of his parents their dead bodies arrived at KM as the plane by which they were returning caught fire while landing due to some technical defect. The fire was so out of control that inspite of using all the available resources no one could be saved.
Ram brought the bodies of his two friends at home. Maan couldn’t react at all .He saw his parents lying on the floor covered in white clothes.He was crying to see his parents.Priya who herself was in such a critical condition was trying to handle Maan.She didn’t have the time to mourn on her friend’s dead body.
Maan –Choti maa .I killed my parents.
Priya-Maan why are you saying so?
Maan.Choti maa agar main zid nahin karta to maa papa aaj nahin aate na, wo kal aate.But I forced them to come today.I m too bad.I killed them.
Priya “No Maan .How can a son kill his parents. You know God needed them for his help that’s why he called them.You didn’t do anything .If your maa see you like this she will be angry on you. She is watching you from there,and she signaled up .
Priya too was finding it difficult to pacify that eight year old boy.
Savitriji was in worst condition.She lost her whole family in few years.Only Maan was left. But she had to be strong for her grandson. She came near Maan-Maan.. be strong beta.
and Maan hugged hid dadi-Dadi.. maa papa kyun chale gaye.I m too bad na .First daddu and now maa papa.They don’t love me.
Savitriji-Nahin beta. Every one loves you but we have to face life. Ma papa were coming here for you only and they lost their life .Now it’s your turn Maan to perform your duty for them.Be Strong Maan. Your parents need you at this time.I know they have left us but they will watch us from the house of God.
And She prepared Maan to do the last rituals for her children and Maan’s parents. As they were ready to leave for the cremation Priya held her stomach and Cried-Raaamm
All looked at her. Her water broke because the atmosphere had forced her BP to shoot.
Ram saw her –priya what happened.
Savitriji-Ram I think It’s time to go to hospital.
Ram-But maa there are still two weeks.
Savitriji-It happens Ram. Aise atmosphere me ho jata hai.
Ram-Maa Right now My friends and my son needs me. Please you take her to the hospital. We will come there after the cremation.
Savitriji was having tears in her eyes seeing the loyalty of two friends-Theek hai beta.I will take her to the hospital.
Ram “Priya I m sorry .Please.. Right now that is more important for me.
Priya-Ram don’t worry, Maa hai na .We will manage.You take care of Maan.
Ram nodded and they all left from there.
half family was going to bid a last goodbye to their two family members and half family was going to welcome a new member in their family.
Precap-Doll arrives as Maan’s birthday gift from his parents
Part-3
Priya was in labor room When Maan and Ram reached the hospital after performing all the rituals. Maan was very sad .Savitriji Held him close to herself and hugged him.
Priya was suffering from pain and her loud voice could be heard outside of the labor room too. Ram was looking tensed and Savitriji assured him that all will be fine soon.Maan got scared hearing the loud sounds of Priya and asked-Dadi why choti maa is crying?
Savitriji-Kuchh nahi beta. our new family member is coming. She will be fine in some time. And few minutes later all heard a cry of a child.They were relieved and sighed . some time later a nurse came and informed them-Congratulations Mr. Malhotra.Mrs. Malhotra has given birth to a girl.
Ram and Savitriji heard that and smiled with tears.
Ram-Maa dekha aapne. Neha ka sapna sach ho gaya.
Savitriji-Haan Ram, but see the irony that she herself is not here to see that dream turning in to a reality.
They were waiting for Priya to be shifted to the private room. Soon they were informed that they could meet her.
Savitriji-Ram you go first.
Ram “No maa we all will see Neha’s dream together.
They entered the room and found priya lying with her closed eyes.Hearing some sounds she opened her eyes and found her family in the room.She wanted to cry but controlled to see Maan there.
Priya-Ram , Maa Neha was right .We got a girl.
Savitriji-Haan beta.We all are very happy today.
Priya-Maan come here.
Maan came near her and she signaled him to sit on the bed near her.
He set near priya and Priya signaled Ram to get the baby as she was lying in the cribe.Ram lifted the baby and she was really looking like a pink cotton doll.He kissed her daughter and gave it to priya.Priya took the baby and kept her in Maan’s lap.Maan looked at the baby first and then at Priya.
Priya-Maan This is your doll.Neha told you that you would get a doll on your birthday.when God denied it she went there with your papa and fought with him to send your doll at your birthday. And God agreed and he sent your doll. Aaj se ye tumhaari doll hai. She is sent by your mother to you.It’s your birthday gift from your parants and now onward You will have to take care of her Maan.
Maan looks at the baby and then with his one hand he caressed her cheek-Choti maa ye meer liye hai?isko maa ne bhehja hai?
Priya-Hmmm. ..and she kissed Maan at his temple. She was having tears in her eyes.she lost her best friend, supporter, sister and well wisher today but she knew that she had two children now to take care so she controlled herself .
Maan smiled to see his doll. He bent down and kissed on her cheeks-Choti maa she is so soft and cute.She is too small too.See her hand are so little.He kept her one finger on her palm as he thought that his finger was bigger than her palm and was shocked to see that his doll closed her hand in to a fist holding his fingers .
Babies are used to keep their hand in the form of a fist but Maan thought that she held his hand-Choti maa see she likes me. She held my hand.
Priya-Haan Maan.She likes you.Maan ek baat maanoge meri?
Maan nodded at this
Priya-Please call me Maa.Neha nahin hai hamaare saath to main ab chhoti maa nahin hoon. I m only your maa for you.
Savitriji was so emotional to see that all .She caressed Priya’s head-Why not Priya? He will call you maa. And she took baby in her arms from Maan.She too kissed the baby on her temple-You know Priya aaj hamaare liya sabse bura din tha jab humne apne dono bachchon ko kho diya.per dekho kismet ko bhi kya manzoor tha ki aaj hi God ne hammari zindagi me ye khusi daal di.samajh me hain aa raha ki hum royen ya khush hon.
A nurse came in to the room and said-Mrs.Malhotra baby is born two weeks before the due time so it’s week.Please take care of her well and don’t let her cry more as she will be weaker because of the wasting her energy in crying.
Maan was hearing that all with full attention as it was related to her doll.
As Priya’s delivery was normal so Savitriji and Ram asked about the discharge of Priya.Doctor advised them to wait for two days .
Savitriji-Ram I was thinking that priya can shift to Km for some time so that she will be taken care well You know that baby is premature and is weak so I can look after both of them .and I think Maan too will be normal soon if he find them around him. I know he has lost his parents but still he is a kid and I don’t want to see him sad.
Ram too found this idea quite appropriate so he too got agreed.
Maan though was suffering with the loss of his parents, still he was a kid and it was his birthday too.He accepted the the doll as his birthday gift as her mother made her words true that the doll will arrive on his birthday.But he didn’t forget the fact that he was the reason for the loss of his parents.
Maan stayed with his doll as he didn’t want to leave her. He started to call Priya as maa. Whenever baby cried due to hunger he was restless as he heard whatever the nurse said.
Maan-Maa see she is crying please use chup kariye na. ye kyun ro rahi hai?
And Priya had to console him-Maan don’t worry.she is hungry and this is her way to tell me that she is hungry,she will be quite after getting her feed.
and Maan found her words all true, After priya fed her with milk she was calm and maan’s smile came back.
After two days Priya got discharged and was shifted to KM.Maan was happy to know that for some days the doll was going to stay with them. Ram and maan performed all the rituals for Vikram and Neha.
After 11 days of their death, Maan joined his school and Ram started to look after their business as he was all alone now to handle that big business.
Sujata “Vikram’s sister too flew down to Delhi from US after hearing the sudden demise of her bhaiya and bhabhi. She had two children.elder one was a girl who was one year older to Maan and the younger one was a buy who was one and half year old. She entered Km and found everything quite there. Savitriji saw har and Sujata embraced her mother.Maa ye sab kya ho gaya.
Savitriji consoled her-Calm down Sujata.I know we are going through a suffering phase.Jo bhagwaan ki marzi. Itna sab kuchh ho gaya. And we couldn’t even mourn at the death of Neha nad Vikram.
Sujata was confused-Maa what are you saying?
Saviriji took her to the room where Priya was lying with the baby.
Savitriji lifted the baby in her hands and said-See Sujata. This is the reason that we couldn’t even mourn for our children. You know this baby is the dream of Neha. She always wanted Priya to give birth to a girl and she was sure vtoo that Priya would give birth to a girl. She was born on the same day when my children left us.samajh me nahin aaya ki kya Karen.
Sujata was amused to see the baby.she took her in her arms and felt an attraction towards her-Maa you are right.This is the gift of bhabhi to all of us.Her dream turned in to reality.I know where ever bhabhi is.she is watching all of us.she put the baby on the bed and hugged Priya. Both cried for some time.
Maan came there ,and found Sujata. He ran to her-Bua. Maa papa mujhe akela chod kar chale gaye.
And he started to cry.
Sujata– I know Maan but your mother has sent you the doll as your gift. So your mother will be sad if you cry like this.This baby will always remind you that your mother is with you. So take care of her well.aur hum sab hain na.priya bhabhi hain ab tumhaari maa. And maan always remember one thing that your dadi is too your responsibility. agar tum aise cry karoge to wo bhi royengi and you know that she is old and you are quite strong boy .please beta sambhaalo apne aapko.
And in those days maan came to know that he had so many responsibilities. He had his dadi and his doll to take care of them.a child suddenly became a grown up child.
The family was ready to support each other to overcome the loss they had faced.
Savitriji was taking full care of Priya.Maan always left for school after watching his doll. He always kissed her before leaving and in the evening it was his first job to come to see his doll.some time he found her sleeping and sometimes awaken. whenever she was awaken Maan was much happy .he played with her. And he found it amusing to see her throwing her legs in the air continuously.
On her naming day Sujata named her as Geet . Priya had already told her that Neha wanted to call her doll with this name only and Sujata gave full respect to her bhabhi.
Few days later Sujata too went back. Geet was one month old .She had started to smile and she used to move her eyes at every sound.Maan was much happy with her response. Once Maan came from school and found Geet was crying and Priya was in washroom.He got angry to see her crying and he lifted her in his arms and he was surprised to see that Geet instantly stopped crying and she snuggled closer in his arms.
Priya came out and saw maan holding Geet.
Maan-maa why did you go leaving her alone?
Priya-sorry Maan .she was sleeping when I went to washroom.
Maan-Ok.Maa see she stopped crying when I took her in my arms.
Priya-It’s because she now recognizes you. She can recognize you with your smell.
And Maan was super happy to know it that his doll has started to recognize him.
Precap-I will move ahead with some tiny miny leaps
Kya uljhan hai zindagi
kabhi milne ka
toh
kabhi bichadne ka khel hai zindagi
abhi uski zindagi main khushi aayi bhi nai thi
ke
usse pahle uska
rah diknane waala haath chhut gaya
kyu aisa hua ,uske saath
ke khilne se pahle
uska maasom bachpan zindagi ke bhawar main fas gaya
kya aisa ho sakega
jab aayegi uski pari
bhar degi woh uske jeevan ki har kami
kya uski masomiyat,is maasom ko lauta laayegi
jo ho gaya ha akela,
woh ban sake uska sahaara ,isse is kaabil banaayegi
ab yahi ha dekhna
ke uska masumiyat kaise is maasom ko lauta laayegi
(Thank u so much Nishu –9n9i9s9h9u9 for this heart touching poem)
Part-4
Geet was being more responding with each passing day.Whenever she watched Maan she used to give him a smile.her eyes moved with maan until he was within her sight. Sometime she used to cry when he was out of her sight and he had to come back to make her calm.He had to pick her in his arm and she was all quite to find him near her. She didn’t need Priya except when she was hungry.and Maan was loving all these moments .
It was the day when Priya with Geet was shifting to MM. Though Maan didn’t want them to go but he knew that they had to.But he asked his dadi to keep a room for his doll in KM too.and she agreed
Geet’s room in KM
Priya shifted to her house but Maan’s routine was unchanged.He used to go MM before leaving for school and Came there too after returning from school.Geet was getting used to see him daily. Whenever Maan kissed her she would held sometime his face and sometime his hair to bring him close to her mouth and she loved to eat his nose and chin with her toothless mouth and Maan felt tickled .He always laughed to see her doing that.
In MM he helped priya to settle his doll’s room too.He kept it totally different with her room in KM
Geet’s room in MM
Whenever Maan returned from school he always found Geet waiting for him.Some time she would clap to see him to show her happiness. Some time she would raise her hands asking him to take her in his arms. And after he took her in his arms she always kissed him on his cheeks
Geet was growing fast. She was able to crawl on the floor now. And she could go behind maan where ever he went.
Geet was eight months old.She started to talk in her alien languages.She always tried to earn everyone’s attention towards her by talking in an unclear yet loud voice .She wanted to talk to everyone when didn’t get a desired response she was angry on them
Maan heard her talk and said to priya-Maa ye to bilkul Parrot ki tarah taay taay karti hai.Aaj se main isse Mitthu kahunga.and He called his doll by a new name –Mitthu means tota(parrot)
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
Ram was too much busy in business .he was missing his daughter’s cute moments.Whenever he got time he tried to spend time with his family.He only wished the kids to grow up fast as Maan will be able to help him in business.
Geet’s first birthday was approaching. But all were quite as it was Vikram and Neha’s first death anniversary too.So ram and Priya decided not to celebrate it.Maan came to know about it and he said-Why we should not celebrate her birthday.It’s her first birthday.
Ram-Maan It’s your birthday too beta.
Maan-Nahin papa.I will not celebrate it ever from now.I lost my parents at this day and some where I was responsible for it.So I don’t have any right to celebrate it.For me This day will only be remembered for my parent’s death and Mitthu’s birthday.
That was day of mixed emotions for everyone. First they were going to perform puja for the peace of souls of Vikram and Neha. All were sitting there but Geet was not going to sit quitely.She didn’t start to walk independently but could walk with the support of furniture or someone’s hand.She was crawling from here to there during puja.Priya was busy with in helping preast.and Ram and Savitriji were unable to handle her.Finally Maan made her sit in his lap and while paying homage in the hawan Geet held his hand as she found it quite funny to put something in fire with the help of a long handled wooden spoon.thus Geet and Maan paied their homage to their dead parents.Savitriji was looking it quietly but said nothing to anyone.
Maan decorated a small area to celebrate Mitthu’s birthday and Geet found it so interesting that she was following Maan everywhere. She was very happy to see him doing the work with so much interest. she was playing with the balloons which were lying on the floor. Unknowingly she fell on a balloon and it burst and Geet got scared when she heard the loud sound.She started to cry but Maan distracted her by showing other decoration and she forgot all.
It was time to cut the cake.Geet saw the cake decorated with a beautiful candle and she clapped to see that.They were celebrating her birthday in Km .Ram blew the candle off and Geet too tried to blow it making others laugh at her attempt. Then priya helped her to cut the cake.All sang the birthday song for her and she too sang it in her special language while clapping her hands during the song..Savitriji fed her with cake, she ate it and liked it’s taste very much.Then Priya told her to fed all with the cake and Geet did it with her mother’s help.With her small hands she fed everyone and found it really funny and shared everyone’s cake
Thus the day which started on a gloomy note ended on a happy note
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
Time was flying fast Geet was able to talk in her not very clear voice but could make others understand what she wanted.Once she was watching T.V. .Advertisements were being shown.Geet was waching them very carefully as she they were loud and had some jingles. Just then she saw a Barbie doll add and she liked it and she asked Priya to take that.she wanted to take it from TV itself but that wasn’t possible and it was hard luck for priya that the add was being repeated after every second or third act.Geet started to cry to see her mother not trying to pick that doll from the TV.Priya tried to make her calm by saying-Geet I can’t get it.I m going to call your papa He will bring in the evening.But how could that small girl understand her mother.
Not seeing any other option she called Ram but he didn’t pick the phone as he was in some important meeting.Then Priya told her – if you will stop to cry then an fairy will come and give you that doll otherwise you will not get it,and Geet instantly stopped to cry.
For her good luck maan returned from school and geet waiting for some one-Mitthu Kya kar rahi ho.
Geet-Pali ta wet kal layi hoon(waiting for pari)
Maan –Kyun?
Geet-Alle.. wo mele ko dol la te degi na(she will bring a doll for me)
Maan asked Priya about what Geet was talking and Priya told him the incident. Maan went to the market and brought the doll for her.Geet was too happy to see it.He kissed on his face numerous time-.Tank u cho much. Alle.. aap to meli pali ho(Thank u so much. You are my pari)
Maan laughed to hear that-No Mitthu.pari to ladki ko kahte hain.
Geet-To Lalton to tya bulate hain(What will we call to a boy like pari)
Maan-Ladkon ko angel kahte hain
Geet-An ann andil?(angel?)
Maan-Haan.

Part-5
(Four years old Geet)
Geet was four and half years old now and Maan was 12and half years old. Geet was old enough to go to school.Ram got her admitted in same school of Maan. On the first day of her school she was very happy as she was wearing the same clothes which her angel wore.She was happy that she was going to stay with her angel.
Both reached the school. Maan took her to her class and asked her to sit there on a seat. She set there but she still was holding his hand. Maan Settled her and was about to left but he could not as Geet tightened her hold on his hand-Angel.. Aap kahaan ja rahe ho?
Maan-Mitthu I m going to my class.
Geet-I too will go with you. Mujhe yahaan akele nahin rahna. Aap ne kaha tha ki hum ek hi school me rahenge.?
Maan-Off course Mitthu hum ek hi school me hain but our classes are different.We sit in the class according to our age.See yahaan sab tumhaare jitney chhote bachche hi hain.No one is of my age.
Geet-par agar mujhe akele darr laga to?
Maan-Main hoon na.If you have any problem tell your teacher.I will meet you in lunch break.We will have our lunch together.One more thing Mitthu -Rona nahin…please. He kissed her cheeks-We all have to study na. The children who cry more are called weak,and My mitthu is strong… hai na…
Geet-Angel I m strong. I will not cry.aap aaoge na mere paas break me.
Maan-Sure mithu.Try to make some friends here.
Geet nodded at this and kissed him.
Maan too pecked her and left,but he himself was feeling heavy in his heart for leaving his doll alone.It was first time that Geet was going to stay alone and he felt his eyes moist. He went to his class but his mind was only with Mitthu. In break time he was going to her class , one of his friend called him-Maan where are you going.aaj lunch nahin karna kya?
Maan –Not today I have some work.He went to Geet’s class and found her waiting for himself. He seeked the permission of her class teacher and went near her.
Geet was happy to see him.She lifted her arms asking him to lift her. He smiled and lifted her .She kissed him and said-Angel.I didn’t cry. Sab ro rahe the.mera bhi mann kar raha tha rone ka par aapne kaha than a ki rone wale weak hote hain to main nahin roi.
Maan-Good girl. My mitthu is strong.With the permission of her class teacher they had their lunch in geet’s class. He helped her to eat her food neatly. Geet’s C.T. suggested Maan to leave Geet alone in class as it will help her to come close to her class mates. And Maan agreed to it. He knew it to be come.Now he had a big task in hand to convince Geet for this.
He asked Priya to convince her and she did the same by saying If she didn’t want her angel to be scolded by anyone at school because of her then she should stay in her class and should not disturb him in study hours. And she instantly agreed as she didn’t want her angel to be scolded by any one.She cared for him as much as he cared for her.
Next day Geet told Man that she will not cry and will have her lunch with her friends.Saying this she kissed him and set in her class. Maan too went from there.But Maan used to go to her class to look her if she was fine or not. But he saw that Geet was perfectly trying to mix with all.
Few days passed like this. Geet was happy now in her class and she shared all her experiences with her angel.
The Almanacs were given to the students. She told Maan while returning home about it. He also told that It was given to him too and told her that he would fill up the required information in her almanac. He took her almanac. In the evening she went to KM. Savitriji was sitting there-Geet come . how are you?
Geet set in her lap-Fine dadi.
Savitriji-How is your school?
Geet-Achchha hai. Dadi red wala halwa khana hai.
Geet loved the carrot halwa made by Savitriji.Maan too liked that a lot.
Savitriji-Why not ?. tum Maan ke paas jaao hum thodi der me laate hain.
Get-Thank U dadi.She gave a hard kiss on dadi’s cheek in advance for the halwa and ran to Maan’s room.She saw that Maan had already filled the information in her almanac on student profile page. His almanac was too lying there. She held both almanacs in her hands..Maan remembered some work and went to talk to dadi. She opened the both almanacs found everything different except one information. Her eyes stuck there. It was their DOB. She noticed that on both places 20th February was written.her child mind wondered-when everything is different ,why this no. is same.Maan returned to the room,she wanted to ask Maan but Dadi brought halwa for both of them and she forgot everything seeing her favorite dish.
Days were passing like that.Geet forgot about that same no. thing. Once teacher was telling them about their birthday.
Geet asked-What is this?
Teacher took her almanac and opened it.She showed her where the date of birth was written-Geet Date of birth means the day when we celebrate our birthday.
Geet remembered something-But Maam.wo to sabki same same hoti hai.
Teacher-Who told you?
Geet-I saw it in angel’s book.unke paas bhi aisi hi book hai na.usme bhi aisa hi no. likha hai yahaan .(Everyone in school knew now that Maan was her angel )
Teacher laughed to hear that innocent soul-No Geet.. It means that your angel too was born on same day.You both have your birthday on the same day.
Geet was confused to hear that. She was a child so didn’t remember her last birthday so well.But she was now happy to know that she and her angel shared the same birthday.
While returning from school She wanted to ask Maan but forgot because Maan started to talk to her about her friends and studies and she explained her what she did with her friends.Who is still crying in class or who fell from the chair.and while telling all this she slept in his lap.Maan smiled to see her and petted on her head to make her sleep.
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>.
Geet was such a cute child that everyone always forgot their tension after listening to her talks.Ram Didn’t have time during the day but after returning from office he was all engaged with his kids.Geet used to sing the rhymes which she learnt at school. Sometime she wasn’t able to pronounce the words correctly and used any random alien word. all laughed to hear that strange word from her mouth.
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
Her birthday came again.. Khuranas and Malhotras never celebrated her birthday with pomp and show. It was always a family affair as it was the anniversary too of Vikram and Neha.In the morning they always used to perform puja first for them and after that in the evening birthday was used to be celebrated. They didn’t set the ritual of wishing at 12 at night because of that shradh puja.
In the evening Geet was ready to cut the cake but this time something has changed. Geet looked at the decoration on the walls. She found only her name on wall.and on cake too it was written Happy birthday to Mitthu. Geet looked at all.
Ram-Geet kya hua beta .Kya dekh rahi ho.?
Geet-papa iss cake par aur wall par angel ka naam to hai hi nahin.
All were stunned to hear that from her mouth.
Priya-Geet ye kya kah rahi ho?
Geet-Mamma aaj to angel ka bhi birthday hain na to cake bas mere liye hi kyun?
Maan-Mitthu who told you?
Geet-Angel I know it. wo hamaari school wali book hai na jo dono ki same same hai usme dekha maine. Teacher na bataya ki jin ki date same same hoti hai unka birthday bhi same day hota hai.To hum dono ki date same hai to birthday bhi to same hua na.
Maan-Mitthu main apna birthday nahin celebrate karta.
Geet Kyun nahi karte angel?
Maan looked at his dadi.How could they tell her the reason behind that.
Maan-Bas nahin karta.
Geet-To main bhi nahin celebrate karti.aap cake nahin cut karoge to main bhi nahin karungi and she went from there set on a chair crossing her hands on her chest.
Maan-Mitthu aisa nahin karte na.Come on
Geet-Nahin Nahin Nahin
Maan helplessly looked at all. Savitriji was blessing Geet in her heart. May be his grandson is ready to cut the cake today. After all for her he too was a kid. Ram and Priya too wanted the same so they didn’t try to convince Geet this time.
Maan –Mitthu meri baat nahin manogi.
Geet-Aap bhi to meri baat nahin maante.Angel please hum dono ka birthday hai na aaj.agar aap nahin manoge to main bhi apna birthday kabhi nahin celebrate karoongi.
Seeing no other option Maan got ready.His Mitthu was more important than any other thing in the world.
Maan-Okey Mitthu I too will cut the cake. All were very happy to hear Maan and geet hugged him .she started to jump with joy.Today she and her angel were going to cut the cake together Elders were feeling their eyes wet to see the kids.Maan took Geet with him and came near the cake.
Geet-Arre pahle angel ka naam to likho.
Ram-Geet wo kiase Karen.cake to market se aaya hai na.
Geet thought for a minute and said –Wait.Main abhi aati hoon she ran from there and returned with some packets of gems
She asked Ram to open them and then she wrote her angel’s name on the cake with those gems balls with the help of her parents. Maan was watching them silently .Savitriji had the tears of happiness for her grandson in her eyes. Angel was written successfully on the cake
Geet- Ho gaya. Ansel see it. Cute hai na.
and Maan nodded to her. She held his hand and then both blew the candles and cut the cake together . Then both fed the cake to each other.
Today it was the occasion for double celebration because Maan cut the cake after six years.
Geet-Ab se hum har birthday par ek hi cake cut karenge. Hain na papa. Aap agli baar angel ka naam bhi likhwana cake par.
Savitriji came near Geet and Kissed her with all her love and blessings.-Priya See this doll. May be Maan is angel for her but she is the real angel for all of us. I had lost all the hopes to see Maan celebrating his birthday.but this small soul made it possible for us. May God bless you with all the happiness Geet.
Geet didn’t understand a word whatdadi saidAll eyes were full of tears today.
Dadi hugged Maan tightly-Happy birthday Maan. I m so happy today.
Maan too was crying silently remembering his parents. Geet came near him and wiped his tears-Ro kyun rahe ho? Birthday par koi rota hai kya?and she gave numerous packs on his face in effort to make him smile. Finally maan laughed-Mitthu stop it. Gudgudi ho rahi hai and Geet giggled at this.
Ram and Priya too blessed both the kids.It was the best day in the life of family after Vikram and Neha left them.
Precap-Some more incidents and Maan completes his school.
Part-6
Maan and Geet after cutting the cake spent some time together and later Geet slept there itself.
(Geeet had her one room in KM too ,so it was very common for her to sleep there. In MM whenever she used to wake up in the middle of night .always went to her parents room to sleep with them.but in Km she always went ot Maan’s room to sleep with him, as their rooms were side by side. He always left his room open whenever Geet slept there and in morning he always found her sleeping on himself as she was used to sleep on Ram in her house.)
He tried to move her from himself but she didn’t as she loved being pampered by all.
Maan-Mitthu wake up it’s morning but she didin’t move. Maan knew that she was pretending to be slept.He started to tickle her in her stomach and she couldn’t pretend more then as she was sensitive for tickling and she got down from him and started to roll on bed because he was still tickling her.
Geet-Angel nahin please gudgudi hoti hai.
Her laughter were filling the room.
Maan- Open your eyes and get up we have to go to school
Geet-Angel-Roz roz school jana zarooro hota hai?
Maan-Yes Mitthu . jaise paap roz office jata hain aur maa takes care of us daily like that only It’s very important for us to go to school.
Geet-is it?jab aap bade ho jaaoge to aap bhi roz office jaoge?
Maan-Yes.
Geet-Phir mere saath kaun rahega?
Maan laughed to hear that- Mitthu Then you too will grow up. You can not remain a kid forever.
Geet- Sachchhi …main bhi badi ho jaaungi?
Maan- Haan .ab jaao aur jaldi se ready ho jaao.
Geet- But angel you didn’t give me the morning kissy
Maan shook his head- Never forgets anything. Geet giggled and Maan kissed on her cheeks-Good morning Mitthu.
And geet like always gave so many packs on his face-Good morning angel and she ran as Priya had sent one servant to bring her back to get ready for the school. In the way She wished Dadi good morning. And savitriji packed at her temple-Good morning Mitthu.
Geet-Dadi call me Geet. Only angel can call me Mitthu.
Savitriji”But I m dadi so why I can’t call you Mitthu.
Geet-I don’t know . But No one other than angel can call me Mitthu.
Savitriji felt an authority for Maan in her voice and said– Okey baba hum aapko geet hi kahenge. And Geet smiled -Bye dadi.
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
Whenever Savitriji needed to go for her health check up priya always accompanied her. When Geet was at home she used to take her with her and maan used to spend that time at office with Ram . as no one other that servants was at home at that time and Ram never left Maan alone at home. but now Geet had started to go to school so this time she too went to office with Maan. All was so amazed to see such a cute doll at office. Soon everyone knew that she was their boss’s daughter.Maan always behaved nicely at office as he knew that it was a work place but Geet was here for the first time . she found it very new experience. So many people working seriously She went to see to peep in what they were doing and soon office was filled with her talks. Everyone was paying full attention to her as she was too cute to ignore.She involved Maan with her too. And today every one noticed the difference in Maan’s behavior. Normally he behaved as a son of owner but with Geet he was a normal child.They could even see him becoming horse for Geet. And running around in work area on his hands and knees. All were experiencing happy waves in atmosphere and all were clapping for both the kids
Ram came out of his cabin hearing the noise and saw what was going there-Ye sab kya ho raha hai? Don’t you all have any work today?
All got back to their seats. All were scared to see him in that mood.
Geet watched that and said-Hwww.. papa app itte bade bade logon ko bhi daant dete ho par inhone to kuchh bhi nahin kiya . main hi in sabse baat kar rahi thi.aap please inko may daanto. Ye sab bahut achchhe hain. Mujhe bahut pyar se baat kar rahe the phir aap kyun daant rahe ho? Inki koi galati nahin hai.app in sabse sorry bol do papa..(you are scolding such grown up people. But they didn’t do anything.Iit was me who was talking to them. They all are very nice and were talking to me nicely. Then why are you scolding them.You should say sorry to all of them)
All eyes popped out to hear that. Ram too was surprised to hear that. Maan was smiling at her mitthu
Ram-Why I should say sorry to them?
Geet-Papa.. mamma kahti hai na ki jab humse koi galati ho jaaye to hume mafi maangni chahiye. Ab aapne bhi to galati ki na issliye?in logon ko aise he daant diya.
Ram -( ST) First time she is in office and she is hell bent upon to ruin my image in front of my employees. Now what should I do if I won’t say sorry she would take it in wrong way and would blame priya to teach wrong things.
Geet- Papa kahiye na sorry…
Seeing no other option he said sorry to all and all were shocked to hear their strict yet kind hearted boss sorry that too by being forced by a small girl.
Geet then kissed ram’s face-Good boy.
Ram –Thank u maam..Man laughed at ram’s condition but he slapped on his head for teasing him.
All giggled at this but Ram glared all as he was warning to see them later. all instantly engrossed in work.
Geet-Jab kabhi bhi papa aap sabko daantenge na to aap mujhe batana. Ok?
All nodded at this and Geet said-Papa bhookh lagi hai
Ram took them to cafeteria and ordered food for them. He helped geet to have her food and staff was amused to see how Ram was too behaving like a child with them while eating food.
In Ram’s cabin Maan helped her in her homework while completing this own homework Later Geet slept in Ram’s lap and Maan completed his home work.Priya called Ram at office to inform that she was back at home and savitriji too was fine. Her reports were fine.Ram too was tired today because of work and handling Geet. So he too decided to go home with them. He picked up geet and moved towards the lift.Some employee asked him to help in carrying Geet till the car but Ram said- No thanks. She is my daughter and I can carry her.
That employee smiled and nodded.
All reached home and Ram narrated the drama which Geet created at office.Priya smiled when she heard all-Bachchi hai ram. She doesn’t know the difference between different people.
Ram– But Maan never behaved like her even when he was a little kid.
Priya- Every child has different nature Ram.maan has seen a great loss at this tender age . It’s going to have an effect on his whole life.
Ram- Hmmm.
After that day whenever Geet went to office Ram was lenient towards his staff as he didn’t want to say sorry to them as her daughter compared everything with the knowledge that she had about the life.and For employees that day always used to be proven as a celebration day in office.
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
Geet was in class four and maan was in class 12 that meant it was his last year in school.Though Geet was only ten years old but her beauty started to catch eyes of the boys. All in school knew about Maan and Geet so no one dared to tease or trouble Geet.A new boy had joined the school in eleventh class and didn’t know about geet and maan. He was attracted towards geet’s beauty.He found her very cute. Though his intention wasn’t bad at all. She was a cute kid for him. during breaktime Geet was going through the corridor he talked to Geet- Hello sweety. What’s your name?
Geet-Geet
Boy-Wow cute and musical name. He wanted to pull her cheeks but before he touched her cheeks got a hard blow on his face. The boy was stunned at this he looked at the source of that blow. He found Maan standing with a fire in his eyes.
and Geet hid behind Maan and called-Angel
Boy-Maan what happened.why are you so angry?
Maan- How dare you to even think to touch her?
Boy-But I didn’t do anything. I just wanted to admire her cuteness.nothing else.
Maan- Don’t even think that in your dream too. She is Mitthu not any other girl. Noone can behave like this with her.
Maan’s other friends too came there and told that new boy about Mitthu. After listening all he understood and said sorry to Maan and Geet.
Geet then smiled to see him.The boy asked maan- Can I be friend to her?
Maan looks at Geet she was now normal and he nodded as he knew that it was his last year in this school and he won’t be here to protect her for ever. He even didn’t want anyone to keep enimity with geet.So he allowed that boy to be friends with Geet but warned him to be in limits.
Boy-Hi Mitthu. I m Varun
Geet-call me Geet. No one calls me Mitthu. Sirf angel hi mujhe Mitthu bulaate hai. “Varun smiled at this and he shook his hand with Geet . He again said sorry to Maan. Maan too left it there.all were friends now.
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>.
Academic year for Maan was going to end at he was going to appear in board and they were provided long leaves to prepare for exams.Geet was now mature enough to understand the need of time but she was feeling bad that she was going to miss her angel at school.
Gradually she settled herself according to the condition.she still used to tell everything to her Angel related to school.
Maan appeared in his exams and did well.after that he appeared in entrance exams and he got a seat in DCE(DELHI COLLEGE OF ENGINEERING) for Civil Engineering. He was going to help Ram in his business so that was the most appropriate option for that.
Ram asked Maan to come at office after college hours as it would help him to understand their business Maan agreed to him and started to spend sometime at office too. He had started to participate in office meeting to observe the procedures and he started to convert in a boss for the employees. But one person was getting affected by this. It was Geet. She missed her angel. She knew that he had some responsibilities but she was still a child.she found another way to cover that loss.She too strated to to go to office after her school to spend some time with her angel. Though Maan too was missing her but he didn’t have option. He too liked the idea of geet coming to office. He helped her in her studies with his own studies and some office work. Ram hadn’t burdened him with the work .But all these things were going to help him in foreseeing the business. Maan was still fulfilling Geet’s all demands no matter how much he was busy in studies.
Precap- Maan completes his degree and ram wants him to go to abroad for his higher studies. Will Geet agree?
Part-7
Four years later
Maan was 22 and geet was 14. His B.tech.. was completed and Geet’s class 8thfinished..Maan was having break after completing his degree and he joined office for two months. During those two months maan worked as a partner of Ram.Geet too was growing. She was the only one after Ram who could enter in Manan’s cabin without any permission or without any knock. And Maan too never got annoyed at her no matter how important topic he was discussing with any one -Be it Ram or any other client. All could get the glimpses of Maan only for those moments when Geet was in office. All the clients felt amused to see him in that form because for them he was Maan Singh Khurana..the upcoming businessman who wanted perfection in every field. Ram too was so much surprised to see him as he remembered his friend Vikram. Maan was a Xerox copy of his father who was very hard working and a very nice human being. Ram was satisfied to see him as his friend would have felt proud of his son if he was alive today..
Ram was sending Maan abroad for his higher studies. He was going there for three years. Two years for MBA then one year to work in KMC’s foreign branch to gain the experience to handle the office independently. But Geet couldn’t take it. And she started to protest-Angel aap mujhe chhod kar hain jaa sakte . I can’t live without you.Maan too was finding it very difficultto go leaving his mitthu here. He hugged her and she started to cry. Maan couldn’t see her crying so he pleaded her to stop- Mitthu please chup ho jaao. You are a strong girl na.
Geet- No . I m not strong. I m very weak girl.. Angel wahaan padhne jana zaroori to nahin na.yahaan bhi to aap MBA kar sakte ho na.
Maan- Mitthu papa wants me to go there. It’s a dream for all of us.I will come back in three years
Geet- But MBA is a two years course .phir teen saal kyun.
Maan- Papa wants me to see the business there independently because he thinks it will help me in take a hold on business.
Geet-I too will come with you.
Maan No Mitthu we both can’t go. Your studies are still incomplete. and if you come with me them who would look after dadi, ma and papa. One of us should be with them. If we both will go away from them how would they live without us?
Geet – Main nahin rah paaungi angel. ek aap hi to ho jo meri har baat sunte ho. Mujh par gussa bhi nahin hote.(Ii will not be able to live without you angel,,it’s only who listens to me,,and never gets angry on me)
Maan-Mitthu you will have take care of our family in my absence. Please behave like a matured girl.
Geet-AAp mujhe bhool jaaoge wahaan jaakar
Maan-It is impossible mitthu. How can you think like this? Don’t you have trust on your angel? No one in this world can force me to forget you. I have an idea..
Geet-kaisa idea angel?
Maan gave her a diary which was pink in color-Mitthu ye tum rakho . Tum isme apni har wo baat likhna jo tum mujhse kahna chahti ho .aur main to aata rahunga na. jab bhi holidays hongi. Phir hum skype se roz baat karenge. Tum mujhe phone bhi kar sakti ho. Jab chaaho,jitni der chaho.din ho raat ho kabhi bhi.Mitthu we all come at this stage one day when we have to decide against our heart.(Mitthu keep this..you can write your every feling which you want to tell me..I will be here in holidays and we can talk on skype.you can call me anytime may be it’s night or day)
Geet heard him silently whatever he said but she was not ready to understand that. she threw the diary on the floor-No no no..I don’t want you to go leaving me alone. Angel please try to understand..You have to do MBA then join any top college here..why you want to do that from there only..and she ran crying from there.
maan-Mitthu listen to me ..please..
And he sat on the bed with wet eyes-His Mitthu was crying ..and this time he was the one who was the reason for those tears in her eyes..
He decided in his mind and left from there.
Geet ran from there and on the way she met with Savitriji .She saw Geet crying and she asked-Arrey Geet ! what happened beta?
But Geet did not stop and went from there ..two minutes later she found Maan running after Geet-Maan what is happening here? Just now Geet went from here crying and Now you?
Maan- Dadi I m coming in few minutes..
Savitriji shook her head and she knew that Geet was upset because Maan was going …
Geet reached crying in MM.And she talked to Ram too- Papa . studies to yahaan bhi ho sakti hain na. Phir angel ko itni door kyun bhej rahae ho?She was still crying
Ram signaled her to sit beside himself . She sat and he took her in his embrace and wiped her tears and kissed her temple-Geet beta ye zaroori hai. Everyone doesn’t get the opportunity that your angel is getting. Everyone dreams to complete higher studies from that university .Do you want to stop your angel from fulfilling his dream that too because you don’t want to live without him? Geet…sometimes we have to sacrifice our happiness for the happiness of our loved ones. . He does everything you say, don’t you think that he too should get his share of happiness. Isn’t it your responsibility now to do something for him? It’s his dream too not only mine. Try to understand Geet that he too needs support from you. If you will keep crying like that then how will he manage there. kabhi kabhi hume apni khushi ke aage uski khushi chose karni padti hai jisse hum sabse jyada chahte hain.. Agar tum jyada zid karogi to ho sakta hai ki wo na jaaye par tum usko udaas dekh paaogi.? you always would feel guilty yourself for not getting his dream fulfilled. You are not too mature Geet but jab aur badi ho jaaogi tab tum samjhogi. Geet jo hamaare apne hain jinse hum pyaar karte hain unke liye hume kabhi kabhi takleef uthaani padti hai taki wo khush rahen. What do you think, Me mamma and dadi are happy that he is going ? No geet but we know that it is the best opportunity for him. he will be back soon aur tum dekhna you will feel proud of your angel then.
Geet listened to her father and understood his POV. She put her head on his chest-Papa..I think you are right.. I should not be an obstacle in his life..Now I will not say a word. I don’t want anyone to say that I did not let him achieve his dream. I will manage without him for three years
Ram kissed on her hair-mera bachchha..you are so understanding..Let’s go and inform to Maan
They got up to go but found Maan and Priya standing at the door of the room. They had heard what Geet said.
Geet wiped her tears and came near Maan- Angel..I m sorry ..I was being selfish..papa told me that we should not stop anyone to get the dream, specially when he is our own I m happy now that you are going to achieve your dream..
Maan-No Mitthu I m not going leaving you.I will join any IIM here in India.I can’t see you crying like this
Geet-No way Angel..I said na that I m sorry for my stopid behavior..Now it’s my wish too along with all of you. I will not cry again. I promise and she again wiped her tears..
Maan cupped her face-Are you sure?..Promise me that you won’t cry.
Geet took a deep breath made herself determined and said-Promise Angel..I won’t cry
Maan packed her both cheeks and said-Thanks Mitthu..you don’t know how big burden you have removed from my heart. It’s tough for me too to go but we have to do that sometime. And I promise you to come here on our every birthday. We will celebrate it together No matter where I m..
Geet put her head on her chest and circled her arms around his waist– I know Angel and if you are not with me on our birthday, I won’t celebrate it.So If you want me to celebrate my birthday .. you will have to come here for me.
Maan smiled and threaded her hair-that day never will come..may be I m away from you Geet but don’t think once before asking me for anything.
And he said to Ram and Priya-Maa..papa..take care of my doll and dare you both try to scold her for anything I will come leaving everything from there.
And geet giggled to see her angel scolding their parents.
Geet-Angel can I sleep with you till you are here ..Please please please..
Ram-Geet you will only trouble him nothing else
Geet-Promise I will not..
Maan-OK Mitthu you can sleep..
Geet-kissed all over his face –thank u Thank u thank U angel..You are so..so..so sweet.
And all three shook their heads at her childishness
Maan and Geet returned to KM as Geet was going to sleep with maan for few days as he was going abroad. Savitriji saw them coming back together and a smile crept on her face seeing them normal.Geet and Maan reached Maan’s room and Geet found the diary on the floor where she threw it. She picked it up cleaned with her dress and said to Maan-I m sorry angel..I did that in anger..really sorry for throwing it.
Maan -Hmm it’s ok
Geet-Are you angry with me for behaving like that?
Maan-No way Mitthu.How can I be angry with you? It will never happen..
Geet -Schchi? You are not angry..thank U angel and She sat there on his bedwith crossed legs.The diary was in her hand- waise to main aap ko saari baaten phone par bata hi doongi phir bhi isme likh doongi. I will right the things which I won’t be able to tell you on phone..and I will give this diary to read you after three years on your return .Will you read it then?
Maan-haan Mitthu.I will read it…and now it’s very late..ab so jaao ..
Geet-Nahin I want to talk to you..I don’t want to sleep
Maan-Mithu I m not going tomorrow so we will talk later ab so jaao and he made her lay in bed ..covered her with the duvet and caressed her head with her fingers. Soon she slept holding his hand ..Maan was feeling sleepy so he kissed on her temple and he too laid on the other side of the and slept…
Precap-Maan leaves and Geet starts to live withoutt her Angel…
Part-8
Preparations for Maan’s departure started and Geet though was feeling very low in her heart but she was keeping a brave face forward for all as she did not want them to know that she was crying from inside..She was cherishing every moment which she was spending with her angel.Maan too was not leaving any stone unturned to fulfill his Mitthu’s demands and was pampering her a lot. He could not see a crying or sad Mitthu.he did whatever Geet demanded.
It was the day Maan was leaving..Gee came and handed over a packed gift to Maan..
Maan-Mitthu what is this?
Geet-Angel .this is for you..have a look and tell me if you like it?
Maan unwrapped that and found under that wrapper a very beautiful picture of Geet and himself..
It was taken on the festival of Lohdi …Geet had made that framed in a simple and bright red and black frame…
Maan smiled to see-It’s so beautiful Mitthu..I like it..
Maan kept that photo frame in his bag.They settled in the car..Ram drove the car to the Airport. They reached Airport..and Now it was time to be apart..
Maan settled his luggage in the trolley .He was feeling very heavy in his heart..He bent down to take the blessings of his elders. First he took the blessings of dadi..She caressed his hair and said-Maan take care of your self..
He stood and dadi hugged him .then she kissed on his head…Maan felt tears in his eyes and he said-Dadi please apna khayaal rakhna I want my dadi safe when I come back.
Dadi smiled-Maan hum yahaan sabke saath hain so don’t worry about me.
Then Maan took the blessings of Priya.
Priya too kissed on his head-Maan mere bete ka achchhe se khayaal rakhna..mujhe mera beta bilkul aise hi wapis chahiye jaise abjhi ja raha hai..
Maan-maa..don’t worry..aapka beta sahi salaamat wapis milega aapko.
Then he came to Ram and He bent down but Ram did not allow him to do that and hugged him tightly-Maan today you are going to fulfill the dream of all of us. I wish you all the best for your future. You are going to take your first step towards your future.I will pray to God for your success.
It was now turn for Geet. Maan came near her. She was standing with her low head. Maan cupped her face in his palm. Geet tried to smile but her lips did not support her. Her lips were trembling and her eyes welled up and tears rolled out of her eyes.Man looked at her and he wiped her tears with her both thumbs and shook his head signaling her not to cry. He kissed on her both cheeks and then forehead.
Geet held his hands on her cheeks and removed them . Next moment she hugged him very tight.Maan too took her in her embrace and patted her back for some moments.
Then he again kissed again on her hair and parted her away from himself-Mitthu..control yourself .I will be back soon.. I will keep coming on our birthdays and holidays too..and Listen..I m giving you the responsibility of dadi Take care of her.Rakhogi na unka khayaal .mere liye?
Geet nodded-I promise Angel.I will take care of her…Par mera khyaal kaun rakhega?
Maan smiled and said-Tumhara khayaal meri mitthu rakegi.. I don’t like to see my mitthu in tears.so please see me off with your smile..i want to take my smiling Mitthu with me not this crying baby
Geet-Angel..I m not a crying baby..
Maan-achchha? Then show me your smile..
And Geet smiled and Maan kissed her cheeks-That’s my Mitthu..and they again hugged each other.
It was time for Maan to leave. He tried to be apart but Geet s arms were tight around him as she did not want him to go.
Priya came ahead and made Geet apart from Maan. Geet held Maan’s hand.
Maan put his laptop bag on his shoulders and started to move with the trolley of the luggage As he moved his hand slowly slipped out of her grip.
All were looking at Maan moving..Suddenly Maan stopped and turned to see them for the last time before going in.All waved their hands at him
Maan looked at his Mitthu ..she was still in Priya’s arms.and was wiping her tears. He too could feel his eyes wet but he did not want to show his weakness to them . he turned and swiftly entered in side of the launge..As soon as he disappeared from their eyes.all felt emotional and Geet’s condition was worse. She hugged Priya and started to cry..Priya tried to console her. All were elders and were mature. They could understand the need of the time but Geet was not that matured though she agreed for the happiness of her angel still it was very tough for her to live without her angel.
Dadi saw them and said-Geet-if you cry like this I will tell Maan and you know if he knows that you are crying badly he will come back..Do you want that?
Get-nahin Nahin dadi. Please don’t.. she wiped her tears and said-See I m not crying..
Dadi patted her cheeks and said-That’s our Geet..
And all returned to home. Ram was driving the car priya was beside him and Dadi was sitting on the back seat..Geet’s head was in her lap.all were silent ,,dadi’s hand were caressing Geet’s hair…
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
All reached home and entered KM..it was sounding empty after Maan left
Ram-maa aap yahaan akele kaise rahengi..I think aap ko MM me shift ho jana chaiye..
Dadi-Ram..it’s ok beta.. I m fine here..It’s the matter of three years not of some days..so I can’t shift there..Someone is needed to look after this house too…
Geet had now some how controlled herself as she had now the responsibility of dadi and she did not want to break her promise which she did to her angel-papa you don’t worry..I will stay with dadi ..after all angel has given me her responsibility.. sometimes we will sleep here and sometimes in MM..hai na dadi..
Dadi smiled-..Haan.. ye theek rahega..and Geet slept with her..Ram and priya left to MM..
Geet and savitriji spent some time talking about Maan and Geet was always ready to talk about her angel. While talking about Maan Geet did not know when she slept. Savitri ji caressed her hair and thought-I don’t know if Neha;s dream will be fulfilled or not..I will be the happiest person if it happens..Once maan’s studies are over I will talk to him to know what he feels about you..But I will not force anyone for that. I want my all children happy ..
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
Maan next day reached London. Ram already had arranged a small house for him there . He took care of everything which Maan needed. Maan was happy to see that small house..He settled his stuff there and then he called back home..
He called at landline of KM to call dadi but he was surprised to hear the voice of Mitthu-hello
Maan- Mitthu
Geet was so exicted to hear his voice –ANGELLL..you reached there?
Maan-Haan and you here so early morning?
Geet-You forgot angel..you gave me the responsibility of dadi na..so I was with her only. Ab se main dadi ke saath hi rahungi..
Maan-Hmm..How are you mitthu?
Geet-achchi hoon but aapke bina achcha nahin lag raha..kab aaoge aap?
Maan laughed-Mitthu I have landed here just now..and you are asking me to come..I will come soon Mitthu. waise ek baat bataaun mujhe bhi achchha nahin lag raha but I have to stay here…Now give the phone to dadi..
Geet shouted on receiver-Daadddiii..Angel ka phone hai jaldi aaiye
And Maan shut his ears hearing her loud voice-ye mitthu bhi na..kabhi badi nahin hogi..
Dadi came and talked to Maan for some time and instructed him so many times. Geet put the phone on speaker..Maan was emotional to hear that old lady and made her calm-Dadi stop worrying about me..and you take care of yourself…aur iss mitthu ka bhi dhyaan rakhna..bilkul bachhi hai ..
Geet-Angel I m not a kid ..I m a grown up girl
Maan-Yes I know how much grown up you are..
Geet pouted and dadi smiled to see them behaving like that.
Dadi-Now will you both stop?
And Geet stopped.
Dadi-Maan apna khayaal rakhna aur phone karte rahna.
Maan-Ji dadi and now I m going to talk maa nad papa..
Dadi-theek hai beta
Then Maan talked to Ram and Priya.and made them assured that he was fine there.and he also told Ram that he liked the house very much.
Ram smiled to hear and said-Parents always think best for their kids.. No matter how grown up they are. Take care Maan …
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
Maan joined his M.B. A…
He found the campus very nice and he liked it..
Geet too started her studies and she was turning in to a good student.she was in 9th standard and it was little tough than whatever she studied till now..sometimes she found something very difficult and she never hesitated to call Maan to solve her problem ..he too very patiently solved her every problem ..he never got annoyed at her no matter at what time she called him…
He could be seen busy on phone even between his classes..some batch mates found it strange but he never cared for them…she sometimes even called him when he was in deep sleep but it was his mitthu and he could not ignore her at any cost..
One day he was busy in his call which was from mitthu..he was listening to her very patienrly and a soft smile was playing on his lips while listening to her…She was like his stress buster.. He ended his call and turned.
He heard a voice -Hello Maan.
Maan turned and looked at the source of that voice ..It was a beautiful girl who was smiling there..
Maan-Excuse me ..Do we know each other?
girl-How will we know each other when you are never free from your phone?..whom do you talk so frequently..Is it your girl friend?
Maan laughed to hear that word-No way..she is mitthu..
Girl –Mitthu?
Maan-Yes My mitthu ..and he smiled
Girl-Okk.. it seems she is very special for you?
Maan-Yes ,,very special ..or you can say most important and priceless for me
Girl-Oh Okk..BTW…I m Ria.. Ria from Delhi ..your batch mate
Maan –I m too from Delhi..and they shook hand.
Ria-You are very handsome and smart Maan…Can we be friend?
Maan-Yes..why not
So now Maan and Ria were friend .
Soon in there one class they were asked to do a project and Ria and Maan were partner in that project,.. During the working on the project Maan found Ria a very intelligent a and very practical girl. She was a girl with a good presence of mind..she took every decision after a lot of thinking and it was paid too as their project was declared the best in the batch..
In other words Maan was impressed with her.. She was a perfect package of beauty with mind..
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
Geet too was spending her days in school and she was getting more busy in studies but her routine talks with her angel were going on without interruptions..
One day she found the diary in her closet which Maan gave her,,She took it in her hands and she thought to start to write it..(you will read the content of the diary with Maan)..there was nothing much to write in it as she was talking daily to her angel..and her demands were too were fulfilled either by Ram or Maan.. as online shopping was a much easier way to shop so her demands were being fulfilled by Maan very easily..
Geet was taking care of dadi well too as she was her responsibility and dadi was so happy to see her behaving in that manner…Though Ram and priya too were very careful about her..They were taking care of every need of her be it medical need or emotional support..They did not let her feel that she was not their mother.
The festival of karwachauth arrived and Geet too was inspecting everything this year as Maan was not with her. On other occasions she was always busy with Maan so she never gave a look what was happening in the house..She never took any interest in all those customs which were not related to her.. but this year she was free so watching her mother doing the preparations for the fast.
Geet saw her applying Mehandi on her hands ..she found it very exciting and said-Mamma..I too will apply mehandi on my hands..
Priya-haan haan..lagwa lo.and she asked mehandi girl to apply mehandi on Geet’s hand..
Geet saw Ram’s name on Priya’s palm in Mehandi..
Geet-Mamma aapne papa ka naam kyun likha hai..Ye to brides ke haath me likhte hain na jab shadi hoti hai..
Priya-Haan Geet ..you are right but this is the festival of karwachauth ..ladies keep fast for the long life of her husband..
Geet-mamma is it true that a fast can make someone’s life longer? Then she asked dadi-.Dadi..you never keep this fast for dadaji..?
Dadi-No… I kept..
Geet-then why did he die too early..
Dadi was surprised at this question. She knew that Geet was on that stage of the age where this curiosity was obvious..She looked at Priya and priya said-nahin Geet..aisa kahte hain..I know that it cannot make anybody’s life longer..But this is a tradition and we ladies keep fast as a token of thanks to the person who takes care of our every need..He works hard for us..he always keeps us away from the harshness of the outer world without whom we are not complete..he is a very essential part of our life.
Geet thought for some time and said-Then write the name of the angel on my palm too.
Priya was shocked and Dadi was again surprised to hear that.
Priya-Kyun?
Geet-Oho mamma you said right now that why you keep this fast for papa ..jo abhi aapne bataya .angel bhi to wahi sab karte hain na mere liye..so why I can’t write his name on my palm… and I too will keep fast for him
Dadi felt so good but she knew that Geet was saying it out of the curiosity .she was not matured enough to understand the importance of that fast. She did not say a word and waited to hear what Priya was going to tell Geet.
Precap- will Geet keep fast for her angel?
part-9
Geet thought for some time and said-Then write the name of the angel on my palm too.
Priya was shocked and Dadi was surprised to hear that.
Priya-Kyun?
Geet-Oho mamma you said right now that why you keep this fast for papa ..jo abhi aapne bataya .angel bhi to wahi sab karte hain na mere liye..so why I can’t write his name on my palm… and I too will keep fast for him
Dadi felt so good but she knew that Geet was saying it out of the curiosity .she was not matured enough to understand that. She did not say a word and waited to hear what Priya was going to tell Geet.
Priya -No Geet..kids don’t keep fast ..when you grow up then you can keep fast for your husband ..you will love him so you can keep fast for him only
Geet-But Mumma ..I love angel na and he too loves me.so what’s the problem?
Priya-No Geet not this kind of love..that love is of different kind..you can’t keep this fast
Geet-But mamma pyar to pyar hai aisa ya waisa kya ..
Priya-No Geet ..only one person has the right on that love..and that person only keep the fast
Geet-Mamma then who will keep fast for angel..
Priya-His wife will keep fast for him..
Geet-Do you know who his wife is?
Priya-No . .not now..
Geet-It’s ok Mamma till his wife doesn’t come ..I will keep fast for his long life..
Priya helplessly looked at savtriji. Though savitriji was feeling good to hear that but she knew that Geet was a kid and joining the facts innocently.. she knew it too that Geet was very small for all these things so sj
he helped priya by saying-Geet.beta,,Let me first ask Maan ..let’s see what he says..If he knows that his mitthu is keeping fast and not eating anything for full day he will be angry. So let me ask him first ..then you will decide ..OK?
Geet-Okk dadi..Love you..you are the bes…t and she kissed hard on her cheeks as if she got the permission from dadi to keep fast.and priya got a sigh of relief seeing geet agreeing ..
Mehndi was done and dadi helped Geet and Priya to eat their dinner…
After dinner Geet went to her room..
Mehndi was wet and Geet was feeling uncomfortable in sleeping..so she decided to watch TV…while watching TV Geet was thinking about what dadi said about asking for the permission of Angel to keep fast. Then her childish mind started to put it’s POV..
She never saw her mother asking his father if she could fast or not.. It was her decision to keep fast so why she needs permission of angel?.Should she ask Angel for the fast but then she again thought -No what if he really gets angry on me for keeping fast as I will have to fast without having anything for full day..so she dropped the idea to ask her angel.and she was in dilemma to keep fast or not
soon she got tired of thinking and nothing interesting was coming on TV so she got bored .and called one of the servant…she came and Geet asked to fix the hands free speakers of the phone in her ears..After she did ..Geet asked her -aunty when this mehndi will dry? What should I do after it’s dried?
Servant-Baby..wash your hands after it’s dried..and put some oil on your hands to get a darker shade of the mehandi.
Geet-Okk ..Now you can go and servant left..
She preesed one key in her phone and called her best friend. Her friend picked up her call-Hii Geet..what’s up?
Geet-Nothing.Sneha I was getting bore so thought to talk to you. how are the preparations going on in your house for KC.
Sneha-they are going very well..Geet should I tell you a secret?
Geet-haan haan ..bata na..
Sneha-You know di is too keeping fast tomorrow..
Geet-Really? But my mamma said girls can only fast for their husbands.
Sneha-Yesss but Di is keeping fast for her boyfriend..
Geet-Haww,,di ka boyfriend bhi hai?
Sneha giggled -haan and you know she was saying that she will fast for sure as she loves him very much..sirf husband hi kyun hum jisse pyar karte hain uske liye bhi to fast kar sakte hai na..
Geet-But..Sneha how will she break her fast because her BF would not be there to break her fast..
Sneha-wo to mujhe nahin pata.. I m sure she will get some way to break her fast..Aur haan kisi ko batana mat ki maine tujhe ye sab bataya hai…Okk Geet bye. I m feeling sleepy..
Geet-Bye Sneha ,,Good night..
And geet thought for some time and she determined in her mind if Sneha’s di can keep fast then I too will keep fast..I will not tell anyone that I m fasting ..jiase di rakh rahi hain chupke chupke waise hi main bhi rakhungi and she giggled at her own thought…
After removing her mehnadi she went to sleep but the thought of the fast was making Geet excited..she was not feeling sleepy and suddenly she was sad..and thought-I m hiding it from everyone ..even from angel too..and then her eyes fell on the pink diary.
She opened it and started to write in that.. But this time she used red pen to write…
Next morning Priya was fasting.and Ram too was fasting..(I love the hubbies keeping fast for their wives because my hubby doesn’t do it for me)
Geet woke up and her main target was to save herself from eating anything and it was very tough to ditch her mother or dadi as they would not leave her without making her eat..She came out of her room and priya asked her to have BF..Dadi too was there as Priya had asked her to sleep at MM last night.
Priya-Geet come and have your BF with dadi..
Geet-Okk Mamma..abhi aati hoon..she came where Dadi was sitting ..she too sat there..aand the BF was served..suiddenly Geet said- OH no..
Priya-Kya hua Geet?
Geet-Mamma.. Sneha called me few minutes ago..her science copy is missing and she needs some notes very urgently..Mamma can I have my BF in my room..please mumma ..Please..
And priya smiled to see her-Haan haan theek hai ..and Geet rushed to her room.Priya asked one servant to give BF to Geet on her room. Priya and dadi took a deep breath as they thought that the thought of fast was skipped from Geet’s mind…
Servant gave BF in her room and she took it but kept it hidden under her bad..after some time she searched a polly bag and transferred the food in it. She waited for some time and around the lunch time came down with her school bag and said to priya-Mamma I m getting bore here..plese ask the driver uncle to drop me at Sneha;s place..I will be back till evening..
Priya asked her about lunch and she informed her that she would be having lunch with Sneha..Priya and dadi were busy in preparation of puja ..so priya asked the driver to drop her at Sneha’s house..
Driver dropped her there and he returned..Geet after he left came out of the gate and saw a street dog there. She took out the pollybag from her bag and kept the food in front of the dog. Soon there were two more dogs and all ate that food. Geet smiled and went in to Sneha’s house.
Sneha saw her and got happy..she took her to her room but today Geet was more interested to meet her di..
Geet-Sneha let’s go to Di’s room.
Sneha-Why?
Geet-I want to see her keeping fast..
Sneha-nahin wo gussa karegi
Geet-nahin karegi
And she dragged Sneha to her sister’s room.
Geet-Hi Anu di
Anu Hi Geet how are you?
Geet-Fine di…
After some time Sneha’s mother came and asked them to have lunch. Anu made excuse of heavy BF so she avoided lunch..and Geet said that she had have her lunch at home so was not feeling hungry..Sneha went to have lunch. And Geet was with Anu
Geet-Di..do you know something about KC.. Anu was shocked to hear-why do you want to know
Geet-bas aise hi di..achchha aapne kabhi fast rakha hai kisi ke liye…
And Anu’s face was colorless..and she Stuttered…N..nahin to
Geet-arrey di why are you scared ..I was just asking..and Anu saw here and there..and suddenly Geet asked kahin aisa to nahin ki aapne fast rakha hai..
Anu-No Geet..
Geet-Di please boliye na …I promise I won’t tell any one..
Anu then looked here and there and said-Yes I m fasting today..
Geet was excited now as she was not alone who was fasting chori chori..she did not ask for whom she was keeping fast as it wasn’t the topic of her interest…she further asked-.Di How you are going to break your fast..because I have seen Papa breaking Mamma’s fast..actually she wanted to ask about how to break the fast in the absence of the concern person…
Anu told her that a girl can break her fast by seeing the photo of the concerned person in his absence..
And Geet got happy to hear that. She was relieved now..after spending some time with Sneha she returned home and it was evening and priya was getting ready for the puja. Geet saw her and she kissed her-Mamma you are looking beautiful..and priya patted her cheeks lovingly.
It was the time for Moon to rise..
Priya and ram with dadi and Geet went to the terrace to break the fast,,Both broke each other’s fast..Geet looked with curiosity. She went down and went in the back yard. She looked at the moon closed her eyes and turned to come in side of the house closing her eyes..and she opened her eye sin front of the palce where Maan’s poto was hanged on the wall.. She looked at his photo and gave a cute smile to his angel- I did It.. I did it ..I did it…please angel gussa mat hona..I wanted to do this for you…and no one was allowing me to keep fsat issiliye jhooth bolna pada.. I m sorry..
And she happily had her dinner with her parents and dadi..
After dinner she again wrote her diary with the red pen and slept
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
In London
Maan was studying with his full concentration He wanted to excel here too like he did in India.. His friendship with Ria was on the good track…
Maan was already impressed with her personality. Ria too was finding him very nice.. he was aperson with good looks, good body and good heart. He cared for his loved once she had witnessed him talking with his family on phone for hrs.. though he was not that caring for his friends ..he always maintained a good distance with them never mingled closely with them,
With Ria he was little open as they had worked on some projects so some how she could see his this caring side towards his loved ones.
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
It was Maan and Geet’s birthday
and Maan came home for the puja for his parents and birthday.\
Geet was super happy to have her angel back. he had brought so many gifts for her from London and Geet almost made him fall on the ground when she hugged him by jumping on him out of the excitement.
He was there for few days only and she never left him alone..she talked to him endless and put much demands ..Maan was happy to fulfill her every demand…
Geet was still the same with Maan.. while chatting with him she used to sleep on is bed and Maan took her best care… he always had a feeling of happiness being Mitthu around him. She was the sole reason for his smile. He was a different person when he was with Mitthu… He had settled in London and he made some friends too but It was his mitthu who made him always a different person..
Maan and Geet did Puja in the morning and cut the cake which had the names of Angel and mitthu on it…
They spend the full time together and after two days Maan returned as his studied were waiting for him..This time Mitthu was well controlled as she knew that it was not possible for her angel to stay back..
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>.>>>>>>>>
Geet paased her 9th claas and maan was done with his first year of MBA… Maan and Ria were the toppers of their batch..
Now Ria saw one more quality of Maan ..he was the best match for her in every sense…
Maan went home back for a month and happily spent his time with his family.. with doing some work in office too..
With the staff Maan was like a boss only ..he helped Ram in office and Geet with her studies as she was entering in 10th standard..
After spending his vacations he was back to London..
And their routine was the same this year too..
Geet kept fast for her angel and hid it from everyone..
And Maan went back to India on their birthday…Maan hadn’t tell Ria that he was the owner of KC..he never told anyone about his original Identity..
His second year of MBA and geet’s 10class exams were over.. He went India back in vacations
Dadi thought to talk Maan about the marriage as he had finished with his studies ..He was in his 25th year..so it was the right age for marriage..
Dadi-Maan now you have finished your studies and now I want you to be settled..actually I have selected a girl for you
Maan-what ? Dadi please ..Not now..
Dadi-haan to hum kahaan abhi shadi karne ke liye kah rahe hain ..abhi to uss ladki ki studies bhi puri nahin hui hai..
Maan-which girl dadi?
Dadi-wo..Maan humne ek ladki dekhi hai..bahut pyaari hai innocent hai..lekin bas age thodi kam hai abhi..aapse 7-8 years chhoti hai ( she did not want to talk about Geet with Maan directly. She wanted to hear his view about that )
Man-What are you saying dadi..If that girl is this much younger to me then she must be around 16 or 17..No way dadi..she must be of the age of our mitthu…and you know na how she is..she is a kid dadi ..how will you feel if some boy of my age marries our mitthu..I won’t tolerate it dadi..I can not think of marrying our mitthu to such an older boy and even I too can’t marry a girl who is too younger to me. I want my life partner to be mature and be of my age so that we don’t have a problem in understanding each other.. I m sorry dadi..but I can’t marry that girl..
And Savitri ji kept quite as she knew his views about the marriage with a much younger girl. So she did not tell him that she was talking about Mitthu only.She never objected when Vikram married to Neha so she thought to not to force maan for fulfilling neha’s dream..she could not make her childrens’ life miserable for the person who was not alive..so she left it on the time ..She believed that our destiny rules us and no one could fight with it..
Precap-Prorposal
Part-10
Maan out rightly denied to marry a girl who was too younger to him. Dadi did not force him and she even hid her wish in her heart.
This year Maan did not spent a long time in vacations in India because this time he had to come back earlier as his MBA was completed and he had to take care of their KC branch in London.. and he joined the KC branch of London as the in charge of the office. He did not need to learn the work because he was already working with Ram in vacations.. He joined KC branch in London and to his surprise Ria was there as she got the job in KC. She too wanted to join some other company before joining her father’s business. She too was shocked to see Maan there as the in charge of the branch. Then she came to know about the original identity…
In office Maan always behaved professionally with everyone.. Even with Ria too. He never gave her any benefit for being his friend..But after office time they were like friends and talked very naturally some times over phone and sometimes by meeting in personally.
Being the owner of Khurana added one more feather in Maan’s cap for Ria..She could not think anything best for herself..
Days were passing Like that..Geet was in 11th and doing hard work ..She wanted to pursue architecture as their family business was of construction so she joined the coaching classes . she too wanted to do her graduation from IIT like her Angel did..
Maan was handling KC in London very well..Ria too was learning the management and getting perfect day by day..
Mean while Ram got one project in London and he gave the responsibility to Maan to handle that project..and Maan accepted the challenge.
It was time for Maan to go to India for the death anniversary of his parents and his and Mitthu’s birthday…Ria wanted him to spend his birthday with her but he clearly told her that it was not possible in any case as he never gave any importance to his own birthday. For him it was his parent’s death anniversary and Mitthu’s Birthday only..
He went to India and came back after a week as the new project was going to start.. It was going to take few months more than he planned to return to India..That meant that he was not going to India at his scheduled time..though Geet was pouting and cribbing hearing this but Maan pacified her by bribing her with lot of gifts and chocolates and Geet grinned to see such tasty chocolates in front of her..Maan was looking at her on skype that time and he kissed her cheeks on the skype seeing her so happy
Maan got little busy in the work and was not getting time to talk to Ria properly..Ria understood his work and did not say a word..
Geet paased her 11th class with nice grades and she joined class 12th.. Her class was the senior most class in the school now. Teachers were expecting a lot with her as she belonged to the family of Maan who was the topper of the school so all were expecting the same from her too. She was working hard not for them but for her angel as she did not want him to feel bad because of her..
One fine day ..
It was weekend and Ria invited him to spend the weekend together ..Maan was at home that day and did not have much work so he went..They had lunch in some restaurant..and after that they decided to walk for some time on the road as the weather was pleasant..
While walking on the road Ria held Maan’s hand ..Maan was startled with her effort..he stopped and looked at her..
Ria was looking at her with deep eyes.
Maan-What happened Ria?
Ria-Maan..I love you..
Maan-What are you saying Ria?
Ria-yes Maan I really love you..Infect I started to like you when I saw you first time at university..and in those two years I found that no one other than you is made for me ..I really love you.
Maan though liked Ria but he never looked at her with this prospective and he said-Ria I never thought you about like this ..yes it’s true that I m impressed with you ..You are intelligent beautiful and matured too ..but..
Ria-Then what else do you want from your wife? I think we make a perfect match.No one can suit better to us other then me and you
Maan thought for moment..Ria was right ..she had all the qualities of a perfect woman..and then he remembered his talks with dadi on the topic of marriage,..he remembered that he told dadi that he would only marry a girl who would we having the qualities which he needed in his wife..and he found that he always praised Ria for her some qualities..
Maan-Ria..I don’t know if I love you or not but I accept your proposal. You are right. you have most of the qualities which a man can ask for his wife..
Ria was surprised at this ..She was little disappointed that he did not love her but she had the trust on herself to make him fall in love with her. She came near him and hugged him-Thank U Maan..I m so happy..and I m sure that one day you would love me too like I love you..and Maan smiled at this …
Ria was too happy to know that Maan had accepted her proposal . Maan asked her to go as they were getting late .But Ria held his hand-Maan abhi abhi hamara rishta pakka hua hai to ek dusre ko kuchh shagun to dena hi chahiye na..
Maan was confused at this and next Moment he saw Ria coming near him ..she tip toed on her foot and brought her face near his ..and Maan knew what she was going to do..he was starring at her..Though he had accepted her proposal but he needed the time to feel like Ria was feeling for him. He wanted to stop her but was in a fix if he should stop her or not. Before he could react to her action Maan’s mobile shrieked. He moved back from her and looked in to his phone. It was mitttu.
A smile crept on his lips seeing her name on the screen he picked up her call and before he could say a word he heard mitthu on the other side-Angel ..I m so so happy ..you know I have been selected as the Head Girl of the school..
And Maan was happy with that news-Wow Mitthu congrats and he gave a hard kiss on the phone to Mitthu and she giggled hearing that kiss sound-Thank u angel..and You know what I m eating now? Our fav.red halwa made by dadi…Umm it’s too yummy..
Maan-That’s not fare mitthu akele akele kha rahi ho?
Geet-Then what can I do..aap wapis aate hi nahin.. When are you coming back angel?
Maan-Mitthu it will take few months more…but I promise I will finish this project before your birthday
Mitthu-Angel not only my birthday but our birthday..
Maan-Oh haan ..our birthday ..and after that she told him about her demands and he happily obliged her by ordering them on line..
Maan forgot that one person who proposed him few minutes ago was waiting for him to finish his call. Ria was looking at Maan talking to Mitthu..
She was always surprised to think about Mitthu ..the time when Maan talked with Mitthu he was a totally different Maan,,a little jolly and a naughty Maan..she could see a constant smile on his face whenever he talked to her..
Maan ended his call and turned to Ria –Sorry,,wo mitthu ka phone tha..you know she is selected the Head girl of the school..and maan talked for some time about mitthu..Her proposal took a back seat and mitthu was his priority
Ria-Maan isn’t this name Mitthu sounds like a kiddish name..
Maan laughed at it-..Haan she is a kid only at least for me she will ever be a kid..Her name is Geet and only I call her mitthu no one in the world can call her with that name.
Ria-Really?..What she does when someone calls her mitthu?
Maan-Nothing..bas..she will stop that person from calling her mitthu and will say-Only my angel can call me Mitthu and Maan laughed remembering the face of mitthu when she used to hear this name from someone else..
Ria-Maan.. When you are going to Introduce me to your family?
Maan-Ria..My cousin’s marriage(Daughter of Sujata-Maan’s bua) is scheduled in the next month.All are coming to attend that ..I will take you to meet them at the marriage.
Ria-OK..Maan..Can I ask something?
Maan-Haan pochho.
Ria-what is the relation between you and Mitthu?
Maan was little shocked at this- relation?
Ria-yes I mean there is always a relation between two people ..blood relation, or friendship or something else
Maan-No our relation can’t be bound in some name .our relation is too sacred. it is not of this world..It is tied by the God..You know Mitthu was born on the day when my parents left this world..and my mother always used to say that I would get a doll as gift on my birthday..and I got her on my birthday.she is the sole reason for my smile..My life has one mission to keep my Mitthu from every single sadness of the world..I can’t see a tear in her eye..
Ria was little shocked to hear it..before she could ask more maan said –it’s getting late Ria..let;s go and both left for their respective homes… Though Ria had proposed Maan and he accepted too but she did not like the way Maan neglected her for the call of Mitthu soon after the proposal. She wanted to ask more about Mitthu but time did not help her…She thought for some time and shrugged her thought saying that he was thinking about her emotionally as she was born on the day when his parents died..he only thinks about her like an any elder of the family thinks about the younger one..
But she was happy that the most handsome man of the university who was the owner of a big company in India and abroad too was going to be her forever..
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
Maan was always like boss in office with Ria and Ria too never cribbed for that as they had to maintain the decorum of the office..
One month passed but there was not much change in Maan’s attitude with Ria..he was behaving with her only like before .he had accepted her with his heart but he was not feeling to behave with her romantic as he found it very uncomfortable..he always maintained a distance between them..Ria understood that he was only like this..May be he was the man of some limitations..may be he wanted to be open with her after the marriage..So she too decided to wait for him as she did not want to ruin the relation for such a minor issue..but she started to feel little uncomfortable whenever she saw him talking to Geet.He always forgot everyone around him while talking to Mitthu .How much she wished him to behave with herself like he was behaving with Geet..She was little curious to meet Geet now..She wanted to see the girl who had done a magic on Maan. She was waiting for the marriage of Maan’s cousin so that she could see Geet..She was more interested to meet Geet instead of meeting his family..
The Marriage approached But it was bad luck for Ria that her father faced a heart problem and she had to rush India to see him..she was going to miss the chance to meet Geet.
Maan asked her to take care of her father well..he also asked her to call him if she needed any help in India..
Ria left for India and Ram. Geet, Priya and Svitriji reached London to attend the marriage of Sujata’s daughter Somya.. Geet as always did not bother where she was and who were looking at them She ran to her angel as her eyes fell on him and hugged him tightly.. maan to reciprocated her hug. Maan took the blessings of his elders and all proceeded to the house of Sujata where she was waiting for them with her family-.Husband Aditya, daughter Saumya and son Mohit who was one and half year older to Geet..
She welcomed her Family . Though Geet knew Saumya and Mohit very well as they used to go to India once in a year..but this time they were meeting after two years as Sujata was not able to go there as Aditya was not well…
Sujata-Geet to kafi badi ho gayi hai aur bahut pyari bhi lagti hai..all smiled to hear this and Geet grinned at this-Thanks Bua ji..and her smile attracted someone and It was Mohit.He looked at her after his mother said that about Geet..She was right..Geet was really looking beautiful and cute.
They were shown their rooms..her House was quite big and had so many rooms so everyone got an independent room..In the name of the family Sujata ans Aditya had only these five members as Aditya was the only son of his parents and they were no more. They had settled in London years ago so they were not in touch with their other relatives in India..
They all settled in their rooms..
Precap-Maan moves India with Ria
Part-11
Next day rituals for the marriage started.. At first day only puja was held for the marriage to be completed without any hurdle..Priya and sujata were like friends so Priya shared Sujata’s work to make her relaxed and got busy in arranging for the marriage rituals..the groom’s family too was Indian and were settled in the same locality where Sujata’s family lived..
Geet was observing Saumya. She was blushing again and again in the name of the groom.
Geet-Di why are you blushing this much. You knows Jiju much before your marriage..You were friends na.then why this shying whying? He lives in the back lane only..so you could have met him daily?
Saumya-Buddhu Geetu..you won’t understand what is feels when we go to marry..That feeling is totally different..You too will feel the same when you would marry..
Geet-really? I don’t think so. I don’t feel that I can shy for anything
Suamya-I will see..when your time for marriage come..and she pulled Geet’s cheeks.
Geet-Di it hurts.
Saumya laughed to see Geet’s cute cribbing face..
Mohit came there and sat with the girls..
Geet-Mohit now you will feel bore after saumya di leaves for her new home..
Mohit-yes..I will miss her
Geet-why you will miss her? You can go to her home whenever you want..
Mohit-No Geet it is not possible..after marriage a girll has new responsibilities we cannot disturb her for every time..she has to be settled in her new house.
Geet-really? Then I would never marry because I can’t live without mamma papa dadi and Angel even for a day..
Mohit-let the time come. Daud kar jaaogi apne dulhe ke saath…hai na saumya di?
Saumya nad Mohit laughed at this and Geet got irritated-Ok..you will see yourself..If I have to leave my family then I won’t marry ever..and she left in a grumpy mood from there.. but she cheered up seeing dadi bringing her fav.red halwa..dadi came near Geet and handed over the bowl to her..Geet was to eat but she remembered something-Dadi where is Angel?
Dadi-he is out with Ram for some work.
Geet-it’s ok dadi I will eat halwa when he comes back..
Dadi-Geet I have made it in large quantity..you can have it and I will give you again when your angel comes
Gaat-I know dadi.. but Angel hasn’t eaent it from long as he is here from a long time..so I will eat it with him..i always eat it alone in India but here we will eat it together..
Dadi-Okk.As you wish
but in her heart she was little sad- how I wish it to be true for the whole life..she kissed on Geet’s head and Geet grinned in reply. Dadi left back with the bowl…
after half an hour Maan returned and Geet asked Dadi for the red halwa..
savitri ji gave her in a bowl as she knew that they always shared halwa..Geet took the bowl and came near maan and forwarded the bowl towards him.maan saw that and he smiled -wow halwa.
And he started to eat and Geet pouted at this
Maan-Kya hua Mitthu?
Geet-You know I did not eat it because I was waiting for you..i always eat it alone back home but thought to share with you like before and you started to eat even without asking me..
Maan-Aww..I m so sorry..come on and he filled the spoon with halwa and brought it near her mouth but she was showing her fake anger to him..
Maan-Okk if you don’t want so I too wont eat but Geet instantly opened her mouth to take that halwa in her mouth..
Maan smiled-That’s like my sweet mitthu..
Dadi was watching that and she smiled to see them ..her old heart wanted to capture that scene because she knew that one day this memorable time would come to end after Maan’s marriage.
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
Next day was haldi..
Saumya was sitting there with a sweet smile on her face..Mohit and Geet were teasing her..and she was blushing and her face was glowing with that blush..Mohit was enjoying the company of Geet..they were of same age and every time used to be with Maan and Geet when His family was in India for vacations. .Maan used to take good care of both that time..
Geet’s hand were full of haldi as she was again and again applying it on saumya’s hands and face,,she was liking it a lot as it was fun for her..
Suddenly Mohit thoughts went naughty..he asked his Mom-Mom you say na that if haldi is applied on some girl other than bride than she too gets married soon
Sujata-yes..but why are you asking it now?.
Mohit-Mom you know yesterday geet was saying that she would never get married if she would have to leave her family for some one else so I m thinking to aaply it on Geet so that she too gets married soon..and she will be proved wrong about whatever she said yesterday..
And Geet was like Nooo.and she ran from there to avoid mohit as she did not want him to do that.
She saw maan and ran towards him as he was the only savior of her who could save her from Mohit..she reached near Maan and stood near him holding his hand
Maan’kya hua Mitthu?
Geet-Angel please save me from mohit .He is teasing me..
And maa saw Mohit coming towards them but maan asked him to stop and mohit cribbed- Kya bro ..you always protect her from everything..
Maan-when she is saying no then why are you forcing her..leave her..and Mohit went back with a pouting face..
Geet then looked at maan and her eyes got wider in shock..
Geet shouted-Angel..Oh no ..she was scared and she put her hand on her face to avoid his anger
Maan-Kya hua? Why you are scared?
Geet pointed at his hands and then at his face..maan looked at his hands and found a lot of haldi there while talking to Mohit he did not new when he touched his hand with is face so some haldi was there too..
Geet-I m really sorry angel and she tried to remove the haldi from his face but her hands were already full of haldi so instead of removing that haldi she rubbed a little more on his face..She was ready to cry but Maan started to laugh to see her and she was little surprised at why he was laughing instead of being angry..
She was looking at him with confusion
Maan-Look at you self mitthu your whole face is covered with haldi..and he rubbed that haldi from her face but it left it’s marks on her face and seeing Maan’s face Geet to started to laugh madly- angel aapke face par bhi lagi hai bahut saari haldi..
Maan -Is it? Ok I will be back after cleaning my self and you too go and change yourself. Your whole dress is messed with haldi..
Geet-ok will be back soon..and both went to their respective rooms to clean themselves..
Dadi met with Maan on his way back to his room.
Savitriji-maan what happened maan? How come you are covered with haldi
Maan-what to say Dadi..ye Mitthu aur Mohit aapas me lad rahe the ..and I sorted out their querral and see what I got in return..mitthu ke haat hi saari haldi mujhe lag gayi..
Dadi smiled to see him-It’s ok..jaao aur change kar lo
Maan-Ji and he left..
Dadi released a deep sh\igh and left for the place where ritual was bring performed.
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
In the evening it was time for the mehandi.. two girls were applying mehandi on saumya;s hand..I t was not India so It was not easy to arrange more girls to aaply mehandi..so there were only two girls and they were busy to decorate Suamyaa’s hand and feet..
Geet waited patiently for her turn to apply mehandi in her hands..after hrs Saumya was done with mehandi and geet sat in front of those girls..and she too asked them to apply it on her hands and as well as on feet too.
She was so excited for that..her mehandi was done too.
Then Sujata and priya too were settled in front of the girls for the mehandi..
It was dinner time and Geet was feeling hungry but she was having mehandi on her hands..she was roaming here and there..she searched dadi but she found her helping Saumya in her dinner..
She was sitting in a corner to wait for dadi to be free from saumya so that she could have her dinner too.. her face was telling the story of her stomach it was making so many grumbling sounds..
She was really very hungry and she saw his angel coming towards her with food in her hand
Maan-Hungry?
Geet-Haan
Maan-come I feed you and Geet was so relaxed to see food and she strated to eat food from her angel..Mohit too came there with his food-Bro you pamper her a lot..she will face lot of problems later because of your pampering
Geet-Why ?
Mohit-It’s very obvious Geet.. Soon Maan bro will get married to someone and then he will not be able to take care of you like this…and Geet’s mouth and Maan’s hand stopped at this..
Maan-Mohit what are you talking?
Mohit-Am I wrong Bro..today you don’t have anyone in your life but one day you will have your own family ..then how will you do this to mitthu..And I don’t think if your would be wife will accept this..I mean she will need your attention too
Geet-Is Mohit right Angel? and she gulped her saliva fearing to imagine what Mohit said
Maan-No Mitthu..he is wrong..No one can be able to do that.. I will be always there for you..(To Mohit) stop scaring her Mohit..and dare to say that again ever..
Mohit-I m sorry bro..
But Geet was still not convinced she was only thinking her angel leaving her after his wife comes..Maan noticed that fear on her face and said- Mitthu don’t give a thought to what he said.it will never happen in my life..I will be always there no matter who comes in my life..and never think this even in your dream..Ok?Don’t you have trust on your angel?
Get having some tears in her eyes nodded in yes and Maan wiped her tears and took her in his embrace to make her calm and Mohit shook his head at this..maan glared at him and he disappeared from there..After being in her angel’s arms for few moments Geet was alright..smiling and chirping..Maan started to feed her again..geet smiled and ate her food.
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
Next day morning..it was the day for marriage
All got up early as marriage was to be held at the day..ladies inspected the mehandi of Saumya . it was giving a dark shade..and ladies teased her that her husband would love her too much and Saumya blushed..
Saumya-Geet show me your hands ..and Geet showed her hands to saumya
Saumya_wow Geet your hands have darker shade than my hands.
Geet-So what?
Saumya -arrey buddhu yout husband will love you madly
Geet-No way di I told you yesterday na that I won’t go away from my family .I can’t live without them..
All ladies laughed at her statement and Geet was annoyed at this-why are you laughing? I m saying true..and she hugged dadi-phir dadi ke haat se bana red halwa kahaan milega mujeh..issliye shadi cancle
Savitri ji kissed her ckeeks-Aww.halwe ke liye shadi cancle?
Geet-Not only for halwa dadi.. but for all of you..I will not go anywhere leaving you. And Savitriji laughed little sadly again listening to her..
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
Saumya was ready in her bride attire..
Geet looked at her and said-Dii you are looking so pretty..
Sujata-haan Geet every girl looks pretty in bride’s attire..
Maan came there and gave an admiring look to Saumya..
Geet-Anget she is looking gorgeous .. hai na
Maan – Haan saumya your are really looking beautiful..
Saumya-thanks Bro
Maan-Let’s go now… all are waiting for us
And all came out of the house and proceed towards the venue.
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
Rituals started and after some time dadi asked Geet to hid the shoes of the groom..
Geet-Why? Hum kya krenge unke shoes chura kar..how will he go back to his home without his shoes?
Dadi laughed-Geet it’s a ritual.. Go.. you will have some fun
Geet-achchha
Savitriji-But take someone else with you..
Geet-Ok
And she approached to her only source of support-her angel but maan denied it saying that Saumya is her younger sister so he cannot do that.
Geet=Is it?
Maan nodded
Geet-but Mohit is younger brother so he can do tha ..hai na
Maan-haan and she went to seek Mohit for the help ..
Mohit readily agreed and they both hid the shoes of the groom..
And Geet enjoyed a lot while playing that game and she kept Mohit with her to keep the shoes safe with them..and Mohit was happy to see that he was getting her closeness in that way as she never gave the importance to him.She was always with Maan in India and he was her temporary friend for her there..
He somehow was liking her chirpiness and innocence because she was so near of him for the first time without Maan..At the time of vidaayi they had to give the shoes back to the groom. Mohit made him wear the shoes by his own hands..and in return they got money as the shagun. Mohit gave half of the money to Geet but she said-What will I do with this money..You keep it..I only did it because dadi asked me to do it..I don’t need this money..I ask Angel for everything that I need so it’s useless for me..and Maan asked Mohit to keep that money as Geet was right..
Mohit-But bro we did that ritual together..
Geet-It’s ok I will keep one note from that money..Is it ok now? Enjoy with your friends Mohit..and Mohit was so impressed with her innocence again
Soon the time for Saumya to leave her parents came and she started to cry
Geet knew that girls used to cry when they left their parents but why Saumya di was crying ? She was going only in the lane behind her parent’s house..
And soon one song echoed in the heavy atmosphere-
Ek dusre se karte hain pyaar hum
Ek dusre ke liye bekaraaar hum
All were surprised and looked in to the direction of the sound..it was Geet who was playing the song in her phone..
Priya-Geet ..what are you doing ?
Geet-Mamma I can’t understand why you all are crying? Di is going only in the back lane..she can meet her parents daily..so why this rona dhona..And see di kitni cute lag rahi hai..her makeup will spoil with crying and pics will not look good..
And all including saumya maan and the groom smiled at that and the heavy atmosphere turned in to a pleasing one..and Saumaya was sent off with a smile on her face..before leaving Saumya kissed on Geet’s cheeks-you are an angel of our family.
Geet-No way ..i m not the angel. Did you forget? He is the angel ..and she pointed at Maan
Saumya-haan but he is only your angel but you are the angel of our family..
And Geet grinned at this-Thanks di
Next day of the marriage they planned to see the city and all enjoyed that trip a lot..Mohit had fallen for Geet but he did not show it..
Next day they were retuning as It was Geet’s 12th and she could not miss her school and coaching classes for more days.
Mohit-Geet I will miss you..will you miss me?
Geet-Why? we always meet every year..so why I will miss you this time. Is something special this time??
And Mohit smiled at this-Yes you are right we meet every year..and off course ..nothing is special this time..
Next day they all left from there..Sujata and her husband with Mohit came to the airport to see them off..
Geet cribbed again to Maan to come India back soon..and he told her that he would be back around December and Geet took a promise from him ..and he promised her to be back on time..
Maan seeked the blessing from all the elders and then they left to enter the launge of the airport..
Maan Sujata and her husband too returned back to their respective places..
Precap-(Old one continues)..Maan returns to India with Ria
Part-12
After a some days Ria returned from India …Her father was fine by then..
Geet in India got busy in her studies as it was crucial year for her in academics.. She might be childish at some times ..immature too at other times but when it comes to study she was a brilliant student..she wanted to do architecture and she had the fingers of an artist which was going to be a bliss for her in her future studies..
Ria and Maan’s relation was at the same level..Maan ready for the marriage but couldn’t come close to her ..Every time Ria tried to come close to him he was little bit uncomfortable and he thought it to be his consciousness or his moral values which did not allow him to come close to her..He every time felt a thin line of hesitation between him and Ria
And for Ria..it was his gentleman gesture who did not allow him to come close and she understood it well that some persons are not so open in relations..so she was ok with that as she could wait for him till they were married with rituals..
But Maan was an honest person and gave her his sufficient time once they were free from work..
Geet’s coaching classes to were on full swing and she was so busy in her studies..but one task she never forgot to do and that was ..talk to her angel…whenever she had a doubt in her course she never hesitated to call him to seek the solution and poor Maan he had to keep all the books which she was reading in her syllabus..he needed them whenever she called him..he always solved them and mailed to her..
December was nearing..and the time for Maan to return back to home.. Ria too was coming back as she had completed her contract of Job with KC..and now she was all prepared to take care of her father’s business,… She was the only daughter of her parents..
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
It was evening and Geet with dadi Ram and Priya was in KM..They all were chatting..
Geet found something very unusual..she noticed that everyone was very happy and was chatting in an jolly mood..
Geet-what’s the matter..Is something different today? You all are looking very happy?
Dadi looked at Ram and Priya and said-nahin to.. we are always happy because we have a cute little angel in our life..and she pulled Geet’s cheeks with love..and Geet grinned..
The bell rang on the door..A servant came to open the door..but Dadi asked Geet to open the door..
Get opened the door and her eyes were wide to see him at the door..her eyes filled with surprise, happiness and excitement-Angelll …Aap?..OMG..I can’t believe it..and she without thinking jumped at him..Maan smiled at her gesture .He was expecting only this welcome by Mitthu so he happily took her in his arms-Yes I m back..and he kissed on her hair..She remained in that posture and was not in mood to come down..
And the Family shook their head at her childishness.. she even did not let him come in..and she was hanging on him at the door itself..Finally Maan came in holding her in his arms..an she had clutched him in her excitement seeing him back..he came where all were waiting for him..He tried to make Geet stand on her feet-Mitthu leave me..I m not going anywhere now..
Geet came down and stood on her feet..Geet looked at all faces..They were not looking surprised..It seemed they all knew about Angel’s coming back..
Geet-You all knew it na that he was coming..mujhe kisi ne nahin bataya..
Ram-If we would have told you then how could we see your this surprised reaction…and second thing we did not tell you because you would have burnt our ears with your nonstop inquiry about him ..Angel kab aayenge ..kitni der me aayenge ..abhi tak nahin aaye .etc etc..so we thought to keep it surprise for you..and all laughed at this and Geet pouted at this..
She sat there in a grumpy mood seeing everyone laughing at her..
Maan took the blessing of his elders. They blessed him and hugged him with love. All were very happy seeing him back..He had returned after transforming himself in to a perfect business man..He dedicatedly learnt there what he needed to learn..Now he was all ready to handle the post of the MD of KC
After he settled comfortably in the living room..Maan saw Geet still in that grumpy mood..he looked at her and smiled to see her like that..He got up from his seat and went in the direction where his luggage was kept..Geet was looking at him with the corners of her eyes Maan turned and looked at her and found her looking at himself only..He raised his eyebrow and she turned her face from his side showing him that she was angry. After few second one pair of anklet was swinging in front of her eyes. She looked at it and snatched it swiftly-Wow..so beautiful…and in seconds variety of gifts were being spread on the table in front of her.
Dresses, anklets, make up kit and lot of chocolates..Geet’s eyes started to twinkling with the pleasure..
One thing that Maan never forgot to bring were the gifts for her..
Dadi- you never bring any gift for any of us..always for Geet only.. why ?
Maan-Sorry dadi, maa and papa.I was helpless..I bought do many gifts for all of you..but no space was left for them in luggage as they were already overloaded with mine stuff and mitthu’s gifts..
Dadi – So what? You should have reduced the no. of her gifts itne saare to hain ek do kam ho jaate to kya hota ..At least we too could have got some for ourselves
And Geet was so happy to see them and saw to all with some pride-See .. He loves me more than you all,,that she couldn’t control herself again from hugging angel to say a thank to him..
Maan-It’s still not done Mitthu..My biggest surprise is still left for you..
Geet-Really..what’s that? Mujhe dekhna hai abhi..
Maan-No that’s not possible.. I will give you that surprise later..I want to see your reaction at that..
Geet-It’s ok..Angel..I know if you have selected a surprise for me then it would be only the best..I would like that definitely..when I m going to have that surprise?
Maan-Very soon..
Geet-Ok..I m going to keep all these gifts in my room..I will be back soon and she asked a servant to help her in carrying gifts to her room in KM..
After she went..
Dadi-Maan now what surprise is left for Geet?
Maan-Dadi.Maa papa .. I want to tell you something..
Ram-Haan bolo na
Maan-papa.. You know Ria?
Ram-yes,,she is the same girl na who completed her MBA with you and was working in KC branch in London?
Maan- Yes papa.. what do you think about her?
Ram-She is nice girl..I have met her few times when I went there..well behaved and mature lagti hai
Maan smiled to hear that- we have decided to marry each other..if you all ready to accept her
Ram and Priya-what?
Maan-Yes.. Is something wrong?
Ram-Nahin Maan..I m so happy to hear ..I think she is a perfect match for you..(To savitriji) maa she is a perfect girl for Maan..If we would have to search a girl for her ..we couldn’t have..
Priya too was happy to know- If Ram is saying this then I m sure wo achchhi hi hogi..we want to meet her as soon as possible..
But dadi was silent..and she hummed only
Priya asked her-Maan what do you think? I think we should meet her family..
Dadi looked at all faces ..Ram and Priya’s face were beaming with pleasure..Maan too was smiling seeing them happy..
Ram-Maa you did not reply..don’t you like it?
Dadi-when my family is happy then what more I should ask for . Maan…Are you sure that you like her?
Maan-Haan dadi…she is the perfect one for me ..she is the girl who gets fit in my every expectation..aap milengi to aap bhi khush ho jaayengi..
Dadi-Ok then..I only want my family to be happy.. I think you should bring her here to meet us..
Priya-I can’t believe it..Ram we all are going to be in laws..
Ram-haan Priya..we are going to be promoted..
Maan saw Geet coming and asked everyone to keep quite as he wanted to give her surprise by bringing Ria to KM..
And all were quite when Geet reached near them.
Geet- what you were talking about ..
Maan-Nothing Mitthu..I was telling papa about the work at London..Did you settle your things..?
Geet-Yes angel..they all are so beautiful.. I loved them..
Maan-Hmm..I know your choice very well so I bought everything according to your choice..I knew that you would like them..
Geet gave him a sweet smile as a token of thanks to him..
All had their dinner at KM itself..
Geet-mamma I m going to sleep here..I want to talk to angel..
Priya-Geet you had wasted your today without doing studies,, Your pre boards are starting next week..so try to finish your studies ..
Maan-maa you don’t worry.. I will help her.. Now I m back so you don’t need to worry..I will make her to finish her studies..
Geet-Thank u angel..( To Priya-)Mamma now stop scolding me ..I have my angel back..I m going to stay here only ..
Priya- Haan I know why will you listen to me now..but Today Maan is tired so start your studies with him from tomorrow..Let him sleep peacefully today ..tum yahaan rahogi to usko sone bhi nahin dogi..
Maan-nahin Maa it’s ok..If you take her from here she is not going to study at all..at least she will do some studies here..so let her stay here only..
And ram and priya had to surrender when Maan himself ready to let her disturb himself..
After spending some time together they all dispersed for their destinations..
Ram and Priya to MM..dadi to her room and Maan and Geet to Geet’s room as she had already asked the servant to bring her school bag to KM..
After chatting for some time and answering Geet’s unstoppable questions Maan asked her to proceed with her studies..
She started and Maan too looked in to her book to see how she was studying and he was satisfied with her studies..
Maan-Mitthu..I m thinking ..that you should do your architecture from my college where I studied MBA..You know It’s a very reputed institude ..
Geet suddenly became serious-No ..I m not going anywhere for study leaving all of you behind..I can’t live alone without my family..
Maan-But Mitthu ..it’s a very prestigious institute..
Geet-May be..but I m not going..I will not be able to survive there..she was looking scared,,Please angel..don’t say it again…It would be your first wish which I m not going to fulfill..Her eyes were wet with the mare imagination of living alone far away from her family…
Maan looked at her and he was shocked to see her.-.Mitthu..why are you crying?
Geet-Angel…I w..will not go anywhere ..Please don’t think about it..
And Maan took her in to his embrace to console her-It’s ok Mitthu..I m sorry ..please chup ho jaao..I will not say it again..I promise. Though it’s my wish to send you there but if you don’t want to go..then leave it.. chup ho jaao..and he wiped her tears..and kissed on her cheek..I m sorry..and he held her ears to make her smile
and she smiled seeing him holding his ears
Geet giggled and suddenly she held her phone in her hand clicked his picture in that pose..
Maan eyes got wider-Mitthu what are you doing? Why are you clicking my picture?
Geet-Angel ..I will show it to all..They have never seen you like this,,kitna maza aayega na..
Maan-No way..if you are going to show it to any one ..then I will be angry on you?
Geet-Really? You and angry ..that too on me..Impossible angel..
Maan knew that she was right and this trick would not work on her.. so he pleaded –Mitthu ..please ..I request you…if anyone sees it thay will not listen to me anymore..Do you want your angel to feel embarrassed in front of any one?
And it worked
Geet-No way ..angel ..I would never want that…Ok..I won’t show it to any one..ok?..but I m, not going to delete it..I will keep it with me forever..Is that ok with you?
Maan-Yes ..thank u so much mitthu..now start your studies..and Geet started to study she asked for some solutions and Maan helped her to solve them..he settled in bed and started to read some book.. if he had continued sitting near her she wouldn’t have started her studies..Geet got busy in solving her problems..
After some time she turned to ask Maan about some confusion and she found him sleeping with the book in his hand. She smiled to see him sleeping like that..she knew that he was tired so she took the book from his hand and kept it on the side table,, and then she covered him with the spread, He was little heavy for him to move so she did not try to do that as it would make him awake.. she knew that he would adjust himself when he would wake up in the night.
She again got involved in her studies and after one hour she too slept on the same bed ..covering herself from the same spread..It was not new for them as they were sleeping like that from there childhood and the distance of these three years could not change their relation..which was far from anybody’s imagination..That relation did not have any name …
They were simply..Angel and Mitthu..No one except their family could see the serenity and purity behind their relation…
Precap-Geet meets Ria
Part-13
It was Morning…dadi came to Geet’s room to wake her up as she had to go to the school and her eyes feel on the bed..Maan and Geet were sleeping there. A smile spread on her lips..she came near them and sat on the edge of the bed..She looked at Maan who was sleeping peacefully without any worry..
Dadi-(ST)-I hope you could understand Maan.. you don’t know that you relation with Mitthu is going to change from now..The day that girl Ria enters in your life officially You would not be able to keep your mitthu with you…You will have to be apart from her..you will get a family for you but Geet will lose her angel that day because no one can understand your relation with Geet. we all as your family understand you both but no outsider can understand this..I thought that with the time you would change your mind set about the age difference but today I have lost all the hopes..Ram and Priya too think that Ria would be a perfect girl for you..I even can’t say to them about your and Geet’s proposal.. I don’t want to bring a storm in our peaceful life by the starting these talks..She is not n the age of marriage right now.. So I have to keep quite by hiding that wish of your mother in my heart.. I don’t know what is going to happen now…
She caressed then Geet’s head and called her-Geet..wake up it’s morning you have to go to school.
Geet stirred in her sleep and came in her lap-dadi I just slept..it’s t too early to wake up..I want to sleep more..
Dadi-Geet it’s 6 in the morning ..and you have to leave for school at 7..ab utho jaldi..
Geet-Oh no It’s 6? Itni jaldi..abhi abhi to soyi thi main.and the conversation made Maan awake-Good Morning Dadi..
Dadi-GM Maan…Geet utho beta..otherwise your mamma will not allow you to sleep here again.
Maan looked at Geet and smiled-Mitthu..GM..get up. he moved his fingers in her hair and kissed on her temple.
Geet smiled-Gm Angel…
Maan made her to sit in on the bed But Geet was in no mood to wake up so threw her head on his shoulder..Maan held her with her shoulder and got up taking her with him..He brought her near the washroom and made her stand in washroom .-.Go mithhu and get ready..you are getting late..
And she stamped her foot on the door and Shut the door of the washroom loudly..as she was still feeling sleepy..Maan and dadi smiled to see her behaving like that but they knew that she was fully awake now and would come down after getting ready..
Maan too left for is room to get ready..Dadi shaking her head went from there..
45 minutes later Geet was down ..she was ready to leave for the school. .Priya and Ram too came there as Priya had already asked dadi If Geet was ready or not..she was there with Maan’s fav. dish in the Breakfast.
.All had their breakfast .. After the Breakfast Geet left to school..
Ram was ready and Maan asked him –Papa you too are ready this early..Are you going somewhere?
Ram-haan..I have some urgent meeting..a But before that I have to go to office..
Maan-papa I too m coming with you to office
Ram_it’s ok Maan..you have returned yesterday only..so take rest for few days..
Maan-No papa it’s ok I m fine..I am coming with you ..just give me few minutes..
And Maan in few minutes ready to leave..
Priya-Maan we all want to meet Ria as soon as possible..
Maan smiled –Ok Maa..I will try to bring her here in one or two days..
Priya- Ok..
Ram and priya gave him a teasing smile and he too smiled back ..dadi was ok with that ..
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
Maan called Ria to tell the decision of his family about their proposal and she was too happy to hear that..
Maan told her that they all wanted to meet her..and she told him that Her father too was ready as he knew Ram as a successful businessman and Maan too was not unknown to him as he was already Partially active in his business..
So Maan decided to take her to his home at next day… and he called back home and told dadi and priya about the same..
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
Next Day..
Ram was back early as they were waiting for Ria to meet..
Maan brought Ria at KM..she came there by her own car.
And at first sight all liked her..she was really a beautiful girl and there was no doubt in that..Ram and Priya liked her at first sight..Dadi too liked her,, There was nothing in her which could be rejected at the first meeting..Ria too found all of them quite gentle and nice…
Maan-Maa ye mitthu kahaan rah gayi? She is still not back from school?
Priya-She is back ..just will be here in minutes..
Priya chatted with Ria..and Ram to talked to her about her interests and her business..She politely responded to all of them…
Geet was still not there ..He called her on phone ..it was ringing but she was not picking it..Full bell passed but she did not pick that..
Maan-papa she is not picking up the phone..where she is?
Priya-Maan she is at home only ..aa jaayegi
Maan-Ok I m calling her again… He got up from his seat and started to move from here to there..Ria was looking at him..why he was tensed..all were saying that Mitthu was at home still he was worried..
Me again called Mittu and again the same result..and the bell was passing but phone was unattended.Then he again dilled her no. as he dialed and put the pone on his ear..Soon he felt a hand on his eyes and a voice fell in his ears-Angel..
But Maan was little tensed for not picking the phone so he removed her hand and asked with a little scolding-Why you were not taking the call..Geet frowned hearing his voice.
Maan-Bolti kyun nahin..I was tensed phone kyun nahin utaya?
Geet showed him her phone.. screen was still showing… Angel calling
Maan-It was with you still you were not taking me call..Why this phone is on silent?
Geet-Oho angel silent par nahin hai..maine kar diya..aapko ek dum se surprise dene ke liye..I was coming here only na so I did not pick that..I m sorry..she held her ears..
Maan shook her head at her-Grow up Mitthu..
Geet-No.. I wont..and she showed her tongue to him
And Ria was looking at both of them..she had already seen Maan when he was in London..he was always busy in Mitthu whenever she called. She was facing Geet’s back .so she could not see her face ..
Maan-Ok..Mitthu..You wanted to surprise me..see here I m having a big surprise for you and he turned Geet by holding her shoulder towards Ria
Ria saw Geet..She was beautiful and and there was an innocent look on her face..More over she wasn’t a child..she was a grown up girl..She always assumed her to be a child the way with the way Maan talked to her when they were in London..but she was not a child
Geet’s eyes fell on Ria..she looked at her and then at Maan..she was confused..Maan brought her near Ria.-Mitthu Meet Ria..
Ria stood at her place and forwarded her hand towards Geet.Geet too held her hand-Hi Ria di..
Ria-Hii Mitthu .. How are you?
Geet-Geet…It’s Geet for you..I m Mitthu for only my Angel..and Maan smiled to see Ria as he wanted to say that he was right ..Mitthu never allowed anyone to call her Mitthu..
Ria gave him a nervous smile
Geet and Ria’s hand were still joined..
Priya-Geet ..Maan is going to marry Ria..and Ria felt the grip of Geet loosened at her hand for a moment..before she could notice something else she saw Maan holding Geet again by her shoulder-Mitthu she is the surprise about which I was telling you that day..we are going to marry each other..Do you like her?
Geet looked at her Angel ..he was smiling and then she looked at Ria who was too looking at her..One more time Geet looked at Maan and then she blinked her eyes giving her consent-Yes she is beautiful. I like her
Geet one more time looked at Ria and said-Welcome to the family Ria di..and she hugged her happily..But Ria’s sharp mind was still in that moment when she felt Geet’s lose grip at her hand,
They all were settled again in drawing room and all were chatting…Geet was genuinely talking to Ria and Ria too was talking to her but she was still not sure what she felt few minutes was true or her own illusion..She noticed Geet for some time and she found her very normal. She found her smiling very genuinely..All of a sudden Geet asked Maan-Angel you and Ria di love each other?..Before Maan could reply Ria replied-yes Geet we love each other that’s why we are marrying
Geet-Ok..achchha tell me Ria di..how did angel proposed you?
Maan-What do you mean how did I proposed her?
Geet-haww.. that means you did not propose her..Still she is ready to marry you?
And Ria was thinking that it was opposite in this matter as it was she who proposed Maan for marriage
Maan-what rubbish Mitthu..and how do you know all this about proposing things?
Elders were listening to them smiling..
Geet-Ai lo ..what is a big issue in that..haven’t you seen it in movies..Hero proposes the heroine with coming on his knees and gives a rose to her asking her would you be mine forever..I love that..so dreamy
Maan-shut up Mitthu..It happens only in movies not in real..
Geet-No no..angel..It happens in real too..It happened with my friend’s sister..Her fiance proposed her like that only..and I love that ..I want this to happen with me too..I will marry only with the guy who will propose me in a perfect dreamy way..Just like a prince does for his princess.
Maan’s eyes pooped out..even all the family members were shocked to listen her
Maan-What the hell you are talking Mitthu ?..Shut up. You girls talk this in school? Do you go to school to talk such crap
Geet-Kya shut up.I was telling what I feel. Why you are getting angry on me? and she sat near dadi in a grumpy mood..and she put her head on dadi’s shoulder
Ria felt that with the entry of Geet everyone’s attention was on her only. she was feeling like she was not present there..
But se was happy for one thing. Maan did not fit in the frame of that dream man whom Geet was talking about..a little doubt which rose in her heart about Geet was removed with that childish wish of her
Dadi caressed Geet’s cheek-Maan ..she is not a kid..she is going to finish her school..Let her speak na what she wants to say…
Priya-Maa leave it..maan is right..she is not in the age to talk such things..she is quite young..aap ne bigaad ke rakh diya hai isko..and Geet snuggled more in dadi to show her protest.
Dadi-Don’t scold her Priya..she is my angel..
.Maan Looked at Geet and saw her nautanki..He shook his head and sat near her and put his hand on her shoulder but she jerked his shoulder to remove his hand..
Maan-Don’t want to talk?..Ok..as you wish..waise I was planning to have some golgappe..but now you are not talking to me so leave that..
Geet removed her face from dadi’s shoulder-nahi ..I m talking to you..kisne kaha main gussa hoon..
Maan-see Mitthu you are a nautanki..always do drama..and Geet giggled at his statement..
Maan laughed to see her reacting bthat way ..he knew that Golgappe were her weakness..and Geet too laughed in return
Then the talk again came on Ria.
Ram-Ria we want to meet you father as soon as possible..
Ria-Ji uncle but he has to undergo his heart surgery in few months..
Ram-It’s ok Beta.we are too not in a hurry for the marriage..but we want to meet him..I know that he is aware of us still it’s good to meet for the elders to meet and fix the alliance..
Ria-Ji theek hai..Aftersome time she asked to leave as it was getting late.
All nodded and she was ready to leave..
She wished them Ram asked Maan to leave her to her car..
Geet-I m going too
Priya-No..tum yahin raho..and Geet half heartedly said-Ok..
Maan went out to see Ria off to her car
Maan-So you are happy?Did you like my family?
Ria-Yes..they all are very nice..No one can say that uncle and aunty are not your parents..
Maan-They are my parents..Only difference it that maa hasn’t given me birth from her tummy
Ria-Hmm..and she bid him Bye and left in her car..
Maan came in and all praised Ria..Maan smiled to hear as he had chosen a right girl for herself..
Geet-Angel..I m ready.
Man-Ready? For what? He smirked
Geet-Haww aap bhool gaye..wo hame golgappe khaane jana tha na..
Maan-Nahin .we are not going..Like you I too was pretending to make you talk..you were showing fake anger and I too made a fake promise ..So I m not going..
Geet-Angel that’s not fare..you are not like me.. hai na..you can’t make a fake promise..please please chaliye na..
Maan-No
And Geet threw her all time favorite weapon..She kissed on his face –please chaliye na
Maan-No..
Geet tried one more time she held him from his back and put her face on his shoulder-Please na … mere muh me paani aa raha hai.please
Maan-Ok baba chalo and Geet almost leaned him kissing on his face again and again-Thank U.
But one person was shocked to see him with her in that state… it was Ria who forgot her phone there and came back to take that..Maan who never felt easy with her in coming close was so closed to geet ..Even she was kissing him too and he was happy with that..
Dadi saw Ria-Arrey Ria what happened? Did you forget something?
Ria-Ji Dadi I forgot my phone here..I m sorry ..
Ram-It’s ok Ria..why you are saying sorry? Come in
She came and picked her phone from the table near the couch and again left bidding a bye to Maan..
Geet-Ria di we are going to have golgappe ..would you come with us too?
Ria-No Geet..It’s ok..I don’t like Golgappe..I think Maan too doesn’t like them..
Geet-You are right but he eats some for me as I like them a lot.but akele khana achchha nahin lagta na so he eats few for me..
Ria-it’s ok,…you both enjoy your golgappe..
Ria in her car and Maan and Geet left in another car..Ria asked her driver to go slow..She did not know why she was doing that and asked him to follow the car of Maaneet..Maan stopped the car where a golgappa vendor was standing with his food items
He asked the vendor to serve them he made sure that his hands were clean and he was wearing gloves..Geet started to eat the golgappe.
.she was enjoying them But Maan was taking very slow as he did not like them much..
Geet noticed that he was not eating so she made him eat one golgappa with her own hand.
.Maan took that but he coughed at it was so spicy as geet loved spicy golgappe and Maan always ate them with sweet chutney..
Geet patted her his back and then Geet asked the vendor to give him one puri dipped in sweet chutney and without water.
.Maan ate that and his throat felt relief from that burning sensation of spices..
Ria was looking at them from her car..she was not feeling good..It was not that she was feeling jealous with Geet but some where she was fearing of something which was not good for her..
Part-14
Ria was looking at them from her car..she was not feeling good..It was not that she was feeling jealous with Geet but some where she was fearing of something which was not good for her…
She asked her driver to move from ther,..he started the car and she left their looking at them until they were visible to her..
She was forced to think..she could not digest the fact that how could a boy and girl be so close ,,even they did not share any specific relation between them..She knew that Geet was the daughter of the friends of Maan’s parents..
She was in deep thought and then recalled her last two years with Maan..and the day when she proposed Maan and Maan said yes in few moments..that incident mada Ria sure that Maan did not have any such feeling for geet..it was only his care and concern for her as she was born on the day when his parents died..But her mind stuck on Geet and she thought about the frictional reaction of geet whaich she felt on her hand..but she got some answer too..she noticed that Geet did not react at anything abnormal after that one reaction..she was laughing naturally and she even expressed her choice of her dream man..and she knew that those expectations were not matching with Maan in any way..Maan was totally different personality from Geet’s dream man..
Her inner conflict was going on..she was struggling between her mind and heart..heart was saying that something was definitely there that was not good for her but her mind was saying that she was fearing uselessly as Maan was ready to marry her without any hesitation..even his family including Geet accepted her…but the only fact was disturbing her that Maan never was so open with her..as he was with Geet..he never told Ria if he ever thought of her as his sibling..then what was there?
She was tired of thinking and she decided to wait and watch for some time… but she was clear at one point that she would not let go Maan away from her..she loved him..and was perfect match for her…
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
Khurana Family met Ria’s father and fixed the alliance as her father had no objection ..It was their good Luck that Ria was getting such an handsome and well capable life partner..ow many girls are able to get such a perfect match for themselves
But the marriage was not going to happen soon as Ria’s father had to go under his heart surgery
Days passed as Maan was busy in work and Ria too was busy in work as well as for consulting the doctors regarding her father’s health..Maan was helping her in that matter..
One day Maan and Ria were sitting in some restaurant..they were out after so many days as Ria and Maan both were busy…
They had placed their order and were waiting for that..suddenly they felt a hustle bustle on table which was placed next to them..but Maan could not see who were they. as his back was facing that side. It seemed that it was a group of some girl students as they were talking very cheerfully and little bit in a girlish way..
Ria looked at them and her eyes fell on Geet..
And she said –Geet..Maan looked at her surprisingly-Mithu..and he turned towards them but Geet did not see him..
She was busy in her group
Maan was about to call her but Ria stopped her-Maan come on..why are you calling her? She is with her friends ..let them enjoy..it would not look good to interrupt them like this..She is not a small kid..
Maan-But what’s wrong if I ask her to join us..
Ria-Maan she is with her friends,,how would they feel if you call her..let her stay with her friends..
And Maan agreed as she was right..
But his ears were on heir talks..
It was the birthday of one of Geet’s friend,.she had brought them to thaty restaurant for a treat..It was their last year at school so she was trying to celebrate it in different matter..
Maan heard them talking..
One Friend-as we all have planned to celebrate birthdays in this way only but still I have doubt about Geet..(To Geet) Geet would you celebrate your this birthday with us?..You never celebrate it with us.
Geet- No way,,forget that..I will celebrate my birthday with angel only..Maan’s lips curled in to a smile hearing her..
Another friend-Geet but this is our last birthday in school,,we don’t know where we will be next year..
Geet-I know..but I m sorry..but I promise you to give you a treat for sure after my birthday..but birthday celebration ,,that will be only and only with Angel..
One more friend-that’s the wastage of time to force her..every year her answer is same..why you celebrate your birthday with your angel.?
Ria’s phone rang and she picked up her call..though she was talking on the phone but her concentration was on geet’s talks..But for Maan it was appearing as she was busy in phone..
Geet-because..he celebrates his birthday only for me..then how can I ignore it..mamma tells me that he did not celebrated his birthday for many years ..it was me who forced him to celebrate when I came to know about us sharing the same date of birth..he always takes care of me so it’s my duty to think about his little happiness, ,Right?..I know he will not celebrate his birthday if I m not with him..
Maan was little emotional hearing her and he looked at Ria.
.Ria too was hearing their talks but she showed him as she did not hear that and she was busy in phone..but her mind was working fast..
She thought in her mind-That means I never will be able to celebrate Maan’s birthday according to my wish..No way I have to do something about that..I m not going to be felt left away..I will surely made maan agree to celebrate his birthday with me..
Geet and friends celebrated the birthday of the girl and they all were enjoying it a lot..they rubbed the cream of the cake on the birthday girl’s face,,she was messed up with the cake and all girls were laughing loud..all presented there in the restaurant were looking at them and were laughing at the wat the girls wer behaving madly, it was looking like they all had joined them in the celebrations
Maan was surprised to see that.. He and Geet never celebrated their birthday with such enjoyment. because this day was related to his parent’s death too… though they always enjoyed their family moments but geet never mentioned that she celebrated the birthdays of her friends in that way,,he was so proud of her..Like him she too valued her family the most..and this made him feel more proud of his Mitthu..
The girls were tired of their enjoying and were relaxing in chairs.Geet looked here and there and her eyes fell on Maan and Ria
she excused herself and came near them-HI Ria di..How are you?
Ria- I m fine Geet..how are you?
Geet-ekdum mast di..angel why you were sitting quietly here if you knew that I m here?
Maan smiled-it’s not like that mitthu..i did not want you to disturb as you were enjoying with your friends,,
Geet called her all friends near them and said-you all know angel well. (Maan was senior to them in school) Meet Ria di..,his fianc..all greeted Maan and Ria..
Ria too greeted them and this time Ria became sure that Geet too was very normal and her reaction that day was not the matter of worry as she was happily introducing her to her friends..
Girls were leaving ..and Maan stopped Geet from going with them ..he asked her to come with him only..so Geet said bye to her friends ..and joined Maan and Ria for the time being..
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
Geet and Maan’s birthday was nearing and Maan’s parent’s anniversary too..
Ria had thought in her mind to make Maan agreed to celebrate his birthday with her..
Few days left in their birthday..
Ria said to Maan- My friends want to meet you..i want to keep a get together for them to meet you..how is the Idea?
Maan-It’s ok..you decide the time ..I will surely join you..
Ria-Thanks Maan..I will decide and inform you..
Maan-Ok..
And two days before their birthday..Maan was at home and his phone rang..It was Ria on the other side..
Ria-Maan I have set a get together on your birthday..I think it will solve our both purposes ..we can celebrate your birthday together and you can meet my friends too..Maan’s both hands were busy in some work on laptop so he kept the phone on speaker..
Maan-No way Ria..you know that I never celebrate my birthday..I only celebrate it for mitthu and for her happiness..it doesn’t have any importance to me..
Ria-Maan..I know but it’s the matter for once only..Can’t you do that for me..i have invited my all friends..please for me..next year you can again celebrate your birthday with Geet..I m really sorry .I should have asked you about this but you told me to inform the time only so I thought of this day..but now I have invited them so please be agree..it’s the question of my reputation..
Maan-I m really sorry Ria..you heard that all in the restaurant what Mitthu told her friends about our birthday..
Ria-Maan I did not hear that as I was busy in call..If I had have heard them I would not have invited them..I thought you would be agree with me..
Maan-I m helpless Ria.. I m really sorry..I will meet your friends but on some other day..if you say I personally will ask for their forgiveness for making you feel embarrassed in front of them.
Ria-Maan but..listen to me..
Maan-Ria will talk to you later right now I m busy in some important work..and he disconnected the phone without giving a thought to that. But he did not know that Geet was on the door and she had heard all the conversation between Maan and Ria..
She got scared .she thought about what Mohit said when she went to attend Saumya’s marriage.She thought-Was he right?..Will Ria di be angry on me for this?..
She got lost in her thoughts and returned without talking to Maan..
Birthday…
Dadi had invited Ria and her father to attend the puja.. they too were there on time..
Soon the priest asked Maan to sit there to perform the rituals of homage to his parents..He sat there and geet too settled beside him
Ria was shocked to see her there..Why she was sitting there? Why she was doing that ritual..They were not Geet’s parents .Only daughter or DIL could perform that rituals.But maan and Geet both did not share any of those relationship.she was not feeling good to see that..
Puja was done and Ria sat with Maan on the sofa-Maan why geet was performing that ritual with you?.. I mean ..
Maan-Why you are asking this Ria?..she is doing this since mom and Dad’s first anniversary ..she was only one that time..and that time nobody told her to do that..she herself did that..Like maa and papa my parents were like parents to Mitthu..

Maan noticed that and asked-Mitthu what happened? Want to say something..
Geet-haan..but promise me that you wont get angry on me.please angel..
Maan-Mitthu..it’s our birthday today ..why I will be angry on you?
All were hearing them..
Dadi-Geet beta what happened..why are you hesitating this much. Say what you want to ..
Geet-Wo ..wo..actually Angel..my friends want me to celebrate my birthday with them..I told them No but they are angry now as this is our last year in school..So..C.can I..?
All were surprised to hear that..but Maan had listened their talks in restaurant so he was not that surprised at that..
Ram-Geet you never demanded this so why now..
Geet-Wo..papa ..I will say them no..please angel..don’t get angry on me for that..
Maan-Mitthu..why are you so scared..Go and celebrate your birthday with your friends..
Geet –really? Are you not angry on me?
Maan-No..
Geet-Thank you Angel.
She kissed on his cheeks-Happy birthday Angel..
Maan-Happy birthday to you too MItthu..and he kissed her back too. Ria again was not feeling good to see them..
Geet left from there ..
Ram-But Maan.you have already placed the order for the cake and this was special as it is her 18th birthday,,
Maan-I know papa..but her happiness comes first for me,..If she wants it to celebrate with her friends then it’s ok..You know that my birthday doesn’t have any value for me..
(They celebrated their birthday in the evenings only as morning sessions were dedicated to the puja for Vikram and Neha)
Ria got a chance to put her offer in front of all–Maan if Geet is going to celebrate her birthday with her friends ..then you can join us ..i still haven’t canceled that party.
Maan-No Ria..i wont .
Dadi-what’s the matter Ria.?
Ria-Dadi wo I have arranged a party for Maan’s birthday ..My friends want to meet him..but Maan denied to go there..as he wanted to celebrate it with Geet,,bur now Geet is not with him so I was asking him to join me in my party
Maan-Dadi ..I m not going ..i will meet them some other day.
Ram-Maan..I think you should go to the party..she is going to marry you so she too has some rights on you.. What say Priya?
Priya-I think you are right..Maan tum jaaoge..
Maan-maa lekin..
Dadi-maan ..all are saying so I too think that you should go..
And Maan was now forced to go and he said Yes to Ria,,
Ria could not believe that her dream to celebrate Maan’s birthday could come true,,
She thanked Geet in her heart..
Precap-Maan in Birthday party..But??
Part-15
Maan went to the party with half heart..But Family told him to come as Ria was going to be his life partner and she had some rights on him and for her sake he was there to celebrate his birthday with Ria..
Ria was very happy to have Maan all alone with her..she was proudly introducing him to his friends..Few of her friends wanted to be clicked with Maan
and her other friends who were girl were jealous of her for getting such a handsome smart and billionaire fiancee..
They were done with the intro session and Maan requested Ria-Ria..please if we are done can we have cake cutting? Actually I m not used to it.it’s really strange for me
Ria-O Maan come on..don’t behave like this… After all it’s your birthday..You should be happy for having this attention
Maan was being impatient-Ria please..
ia saw him reluctant and she tried to divert his concentration –Maan my one more friend is yet to come..she is my childhood friend..Let her come first.. After that you can cut the cake …Please let her come once..please
Maan-Okk.but I will wait for few more minutes.
Ria-Ok baba..If she not comes in another 10 min. I will do what you say..Till Than may I have the pleasure to dance with the Birthday boy…and she spread her hand in front of him and he accepted as he did not want to act a spoil sports… After dancing for sometime Maan again said-Ria your friend is not yet here can I cut the cake?…He was now getting annoyed and he did not know why.. He was not with Mittu this year..Though he did not mind Mitthu celebrating her birthday with her friends,, he knew that she was a teenage girl and she can have her choice. He didn’t want to celebrate his birthday as it didn’t have any value for him. For him t was only his parent’s death anniversary.But family forced and .he was there for them and Ria only not for himself..
Finally Ria seeing him rigid to cut the cake called the attendant to bring the cake..As Maan was going to blow the candles her eyes fell on someone..Ria too got excited to see her ..She was her friend whom she was waiting but Maan was looking at the girl standing beside Ria’s friend..
Maan to himself-I have seen this girl somewhere but where?..and after giving the pressure on his mind he remembered where he saw her,,he saw her with Mitthu in the restaurant where they were celebrating the birthday of one of their friend..
Maan to himself-But what she is doing here?,,she should be with mitthu on her birthday celebrations..
Ria excused Maan and went to welcome her friend. She did not notice that girl . Maan was still not sure if he was right in recognizing that girl or not.Ria introduced her friend to Maan..
Ria after introducing him to her friend asked him to cut the cake..Maan excused himself for few moment..and moved from there..
Ria nodded and got busy in talking to her friend..Maan went where that girl was standing..the girl saw him and said-Hello sir..Aap yaaan? ..and Maan was now confirmed that he was right to recognizing that girl..and he asked her-What are you doing here?
The girl-Sir I too want to ask the same..what you are doing here? actually Ria di is my cousin’s friend so I thought to accompany her as I was getting bore at home.Just a minute..Is it your Birthday party? Are ypu not celebrating your birthday with Geet this year?
Maan-What do you mean?..Mitthu said that you all friend were forcing her for celebrating her birthday with you as this is your last year in school..what’s your name?
That girl-I m sneha..yes you are right..we ask her every year but she never agrees and this year was the same..we asked but she refused..
Maan’s heart feared hearing her-Are you sure.?.I mean what if you forget to go there..
Sneha-No way Sir,,I chatted with her few hours ago and wished her on her birthday..she did not say a word..
Maan excused himself and went little away. He called Geet. but she did not pick up ..Maan again called but the result was the same.he wiped his face with is hand as he could feel himself sweating even in the month of February.
He called Ram..he and Priya were at Km with Dadi to give her company as they did not want to leave her alone at this day..
Ram picked up the call-Hello Maan..
Maan-papa Mitthu aa gayi kya?
Ram-nahin to..kyun kya hua..Maan she is with her friends so relax..
Maan did not want to tell him as they all could have got worried..he one more time called Geet but she did not pick..
Ria-Maan..come..please cut the cake..it was you only who wanted to cut it soon and now you are standing there..
Maan-Ria I m sorry…I have to go..
Ria- what? Maan what are you saying?All are waiting for you to cut the cake
Maan- I m saying true Ria..I can’t do this now
Ria- Ok relax and tell me what happened?
Maan-Ria Mitthu lied that she wanted to celebrate her birthday with her friends..see this is sneha and she is mitthu’s friend..she is saying that Geet did not tell them about her birthday
Ria-Oh no..it’s ok Maan..jaldi se cake kaat lo then you can leave..even I too will come with you..
Maan being irritated-Ria come on..I m saying that Mitthu did not tell anyone that means she is alone somewhere and you are insisting me to cut the cake..How can I do that..I have to find her as soon as possible..I can’t cut this cake I m sorry..and he hurriedly ran out of the door..
Before Ria could stop him he was out of the party hall..Ria was looking at his retreating figure but could not react as she knew that he was not going to listen to her..she was feeling very bad,,the cake was kept untouched and she was feeling embarrassed among her friends..
One of her friend-What happened Ria why he left the party without cutting the cake,after all it was his birthday party..Ria controlled herself and said-Wo he got a call that her dadi is not well so he left..
and once again Ria felt herself rejected in front of Geet..and that was the first time that she felt a wave of hatred for Geet for making her insulted in front of her friends..but she knew that she could not do anything..she was feeling her eyes wet but she controlled herself and called off the party asking for the forgiveness from her friends..but she was hell angry today..and her object of anger was not Maan ..it was Geet for whom Maan left her party
Maan was in his car..he was not able to understand why mithhu lied to them..she never did it earlier..he reached home and found Ram.priya and Dadi sitting in the hall..
Ram-Maan what happened? Your party ended very soon?
Maan did not reply and asked Ram –Mittu aayi ya nahin
And now Ram got alert-what happened Maan? Why you are asking about mitthu again..you know that she is with her friends to celebr…before Ram could complete his sentence Maan ssaid-no papa she is not..she lied to us about her party..I saw her friend Sneha there and she told that Mitthu did not invite them and she is not picking up her phone..and hearing this all were shocked
Priya-what are you saying Maan? Let me check with her friends and she called her friends one by one and the response was the same that they were not with geet,,Infect they did not know anything about her as she never celebrated her birthday with them.
Priya –Maan you are right Geet is not with them..
All were tensed..Ram called Geet but she was not picking up the call..maan combed his hair in frustration. He was not able to understand why Mitthu did that..
And then Maan thought an idea and called at Malotra mansion..he called at land line. The servant picked up the phone..
Maan-Ramesh..jaise hi Mitthu aati hai mujhe batana..
Ramesh-but Geet baby is sleeping in her room..
Maan was shocked to know-What? Kab se?
Ramesh-bahut der hui..she returned from out and told that she was tired so wanted to sleep and asked all of us for not informing the elders as she wanted to sleep..she did not wanted to disturb saab and memsaab as they were with Dadi at KM..
Maan felt a wave of relaxation in is body. He closed his eyes and he sat on the sofe with athud…he felt as he got his life back after knowing that Mitthu was all safe..
Maan told the elders that Mitthu was at home and was sleeping..but all were still confused at why she did so..
Priya-ye ladki bhi na..Isne to jaan hi le li thi..I should talk to her that why she did that..
Maan-No maa..Please don’t say a word to her..After all it’s her birthday..and we should be happy that she is at home and all safe..wo kahin bhi ja sakti thi maa.but she did not..I think there is something behind her this behavior..maa please it’s a request..
Priya-Theek hai..tum kuchh kahan kahne dete ho mujhe..
He looked in to the watch..it was 10:30 pm..Maan asked Ram to bring cake along with dadi and Priya to MM..and he rushed to see mitthu..
He reached in to the room of Geet and found her sleeping there..his body and Mind were at peace seeing her sleeping peacefully..He looked in to her phone and found it on silent mode..he sat on the edge of the bed near her and caressed her hair with love..he pecked on her forehead and with that touch Geet opened her sleepy eyes- Angel..and she sat in the bed..aa gaye aap..party khatam ho gayi?
Maan-haan..and how was your party?
Geet’s eyes were opened fully now and she looked down saying that it was good and she enjoyed a lot..she slept after returning as she was tired..she was trying to avod to look in to his eyes..
Maan looked at her with thoughtful eyes-Mitthu you did not invite Sneha?
Geet seemed little scared- No I invited her.Why are you asking so angel?
Maan-because she was at my birthday party with her cousin sister..and Geet knew that maan was aware of her lie..
Geet-I m sorry angel..main aapse jhooth bola..and her eyes turned teary saying this..
Maan-That only I want to know that why did you lie Mitthu?
Geet-looked down and said-Angel that day I heard your and Ria di’s talk when you were talking to her on phone that you did not want to celebrate your birthday with her..
Man-So what Mitthu ? You too were telling your friends that you would celebrate your birthday with me only..What was wrong if I said that I would not celebrate my birthday with her? We always celebrate our birthdays together only.
Geet-Wo..wo..
Maan could see that she was scared of something..
Maan-kya hua Mitthu? Kya bat hai..is something else there behind your lie?
Geet-Angel..when we were in London ..there Mohit was telling na ki your wife would not like if you would keep pampering me..so I thought that Ria di would be angry on me because you were not ready to celebrate your birthday with her because of me..I was scared what if she would not allow me to be near you after your marriage..that’s why I thought to lie..I wanted you to celebrate your birthday with her
Maan was shocked to know this..a small sentence of Mohit had such a harsh impact on her..he felt a lump in his throat..he looked at her..she was sitting very calmly..
Maan-Mitthu did not you feel bad for not celebrating with me?
Geet- laga tha.. but I can do this for you ..You too do so much for me so why I can’t do this for you and Ria di..and saying this she smiled to see him..
Maan pulled her it to him..kissed on her forehead and said-Mitthu never do this again..if you do this again..I promise I won’t talk to you for my whole life Did you get it?..
Geet got scared to hear that-nahin nahin Angel..please don’t say this..What will I do if you are not going to talk to me..
Maan-Hmm.so be care full..By the way ,where did you go? I know you could not go to your friends
Geet grinned-wo paas wale ice cream parlour me thi..and was waiting for you to leave..when I saw you leaving..I came home as I knew that mamma and papa were with dadi..
Maan-what..kitni icecream khaayi?
Geet-only three and she looked at him if he was angry to hear this but he was smiling
Maan-Mitthu never do this again ..ok?
Geet nodded and again said sorry to him
Maan-it’s ok..Now come with me
Geet came down from the bed and both went downstairs. And the sight down stairs made Geet scared as all the elders were giving a glare to her. She hid behind Maan..Maan smiled and then brought her down with holding her hand..
Priya came near Geet-Why did you do that Geet..Do you know how scared we all were for you..
Geet-Mamma please ab aap mat daanto mujhe..I m sorry.
Maan-maa please don’t say anything to her..She purposely did that and he narrated all the incident to them..
Ram and caressed her face-I did not expect you this from you to lie beta. But I m happy that you think about others too..but Geet don’t do this again..
Geet hugged him-I m sorry papa..
Dadi caressed her face- Now don’t say anything to her..bahut hua..let’s do the most important work of the day..
she asked the servant to bring the cake and just than Ria too reached there..She thought to be there as she felt that it would look bad if she would not share their problems..but the sight in front of her again burnt her..They all were smiling and laughing after making her embarrase in front of her friends.
Maan looked at Ria-Ria..you here?
Ria kept her feelings aside and said-haan..actually I was worried for Geet so thought to come to see if she is at home or not.Where was she?
Maan-Ria actually Mittu did all that only for us..she had heard our talk on the phone that day and she thought that you would get angry on her because I was denying to join your party for her..she was scared of your anger..but I told her that you would never get angry on her as you know well about mitthu..Please tell her that you are not angry on her and in future too it will not happen..
Ria gave a nervous smile to him and came near geet and Geet gulped hard to see her face..She was not sure to see her face if she was angry or not
Ria controlled herself-No..Geet..you were wrong.Why would I be angry on you? I know Maan cares a lot for you..and he loves you more than anything in this world..so being as his wife I too would love you like he does..
Geet got happy to hear this-Really?You are not angry di..?
Ria-No..
And Geet hugged her-Thank u so much di..and I m very sorry to think bad about you..I m really sorry..
Ria-It’s ok Geet..
And the cake was there ..it was a special cake as Geet was celebrating her 18th birthday..Geet beemed to see that cake but stopped to see..the cake was having the no.18 on it.
Geet-Angel this cake has the figure of 18..you are not of 18 and she looked naughtily at him
Maan-Hmm.. did you forget when I turned 18 and papa brought a separate cake for you..How much you cried to see that separate cake and insisted to cut the same cake which I was going to cut..so The situation is still the same..I will cut this cake only..it’s my revenge from you..Geet grinned hearing that and she pulled Maan near him to blow the candles..both blew the candles and cut the cake..and fed eachother.
After that both fed all the elders and Ria too. but for Ria t that sweet cake was giving her a bitter taste..
And both took the blessings of the elders.. And now it was the turn of getting gifts.. Maan did not accept any gift on his birthday..as he did not consider this day as his birthday..it was a day of his parents death anniversary.But it ws Mitthu;’s birthday for him so always did the best for her…
Geet’s eyes got wider to see the gifts..priya gave her a diamond wrist watch..dadi gave her a heavy gold chain..and Ram gave her some shares of company so she was one of the partner in the company now like Maan and Ram..Maan was standing there silent..Geet gave him a frowned look as if asking about her gift..
Maan smiled and took out a box..there was a diamond set which was sleek and perfectly suited to geet’s age..it was having a pendant of the alphabet M..
Ria-Maan..does this M mean Maan?
Maan-No Ria-…M means Mitthu..
Geet-But Ria di is right too..it’s your names first letter too..so this means both of us..but soon she frowned at all
Geet-what is this? Everyone is giving me jewelery today…I don’t want them..and she pouted..and then Maan took out another box and Geet’s eyes got wider and her mouth opened unknowingly. It was apple I phone 6..Geet almost snatched it from him.-Wow i phone? Thank you angel..thank u so much.She opened the box and inspected it..she found that Angel’s mitthu was written at the back of the phone…
Geet-Wow Angel ths is so special ..You ordered it specially for me? and se hugged him feeling happy..it was like if she had found some treasure..Maan hugged her back-You liked it?
Geet-Liked it? Angel I love it..it’s so beautiful..now I need a wallpaper for it and she clicked a selfi of maan and herself..and set it as a wallpaper on the screen.
She showed it to all..and all liked that..
Maan smiled and tried to keep that diamond set back but Geet was Geet-Nahin ..wo bhi cahiye…aur muje abhi pahanna bhi hai wo..Her hands were full of gifts so she stood with her back towards Maan as indicating him to make her wear that and Maan did that happily..
Geet-Mamma dadi..it’s so cute na..
Dadi-Geet that’s not fare..you wore the gift Maan gave you but what about our gifts..unko bhi pahno..
Geet-Sorry dadi..I liked all the gifts but the gifts angel gave are the best..I will wear yours at some other times..
Ria could understand the bond of the families very well..But she was not going to lose hopes easily..
She said to Geet-Geet you got so many gift today..but it’s Maan’s birthday too..will not you give gift to him..
Geet looked at her and then at Angel-Ria di I never gave a gift to Angel as I myself is his birthday gift.. I was born as his birthday gift…Hai na Angel.
And Maan nodded his head .and said to Ria-She is right Ria..
Ria-Maan..I have something for you as your gift and she gave him a Rolex diamond studded watch..it was really beautiful..
Geet too looked at that and said-Wow Angel..it’s so beautiful…
Maan-But Ria I don’t accept gift on my birthday..I m sorry but I can’t take..
Ria’s face fell down hearing this and Ram and priya noticed that..they looked at each other and Priya said-Maan sometimes we have to change our decisions for our loved ones..Like you celebrate your birthday for Mitthu..and Ria and you too love each other and she is going to be a part of your life so I think you should not break her heart..kitne pyar se laayi hai wo ye gift..she will feel bad..next time do what you both want but this time accept it happily Maan..
Ram-She is right Maan..
And Maan accepted the gift but looked at Ria as if was asking something..Ria looked at him and she was confused to see him and finally she understood
Ria-Wo I m sorry..Geet..I m sorry I could not bring any gift for you..I came here in hurry to see you..Maan’s gift was in my bag..
Geet-O Di..chill..I got my fav.gift from Angel..so don’t worry..you can give your gift later..and Ria smiled at this..after spending there some time Ria returned from there ..She was feeling so bad and in some manners insulted too..The girl who was the reason for spoiling her party was happily celebrating her birthday with her fiancee,, But at that moment she knew that Geet and Maan were inseparable but she was not going to lose in front of that immature girl..She decided to get her Maan all for herself No matter what she would have to do for that..
She was in her car and was crying. This was the starting of hatred and jealousy for Geet in Ria’s heart..
Part-16
Month of Feb ended and it was the time for Geet’s 12th boards to start..As Maan was here now in India so he took the responsibility of Geet for studies..her coaching classes were over..and now she was self studying at home..
Geet started to study during the day and note down the doubts in a note pad and got them cleared by Maan at night..she was in KM for her exams..
Some time she got distracted from her studies but one glare of Maan made her sit again quietly on the chair..
Sometimes she was too busy in studies that she forgot to have meals and that time either dadi or maan had to feed her..Priya was never worried for her when she was at KM as she knew that Maan and savitri ji could take the best care of Geet..
Here Ria was becoming more and more uncomfortable with Geet being around maan and herself..Somewhere a seed of hatred had been sowed in her heart for Geet snce the day she felt humiliation infront of her friends on Maan’s birthday.but she did not show it to anyone. She knew that Geet was the apple of the eyes of the family. So saying anything against her would not work in her own favor. Keeping this in her mind she tried her best to talk in a very nice way to Geet. But at the same time she tried to keep herself away from Geet as much as possible..She interacted her only in some unavoidable conditions..
Though Geet did not accompany maan ever when he was with Ria and Ria was always happy finding Maan alone for herself..but when Ria was at Km..she always felt herself left out because Geet was the only center of the talks of the family members..
Geet was happy with Ria as she was a girl who always talked sweetly to her.. Ria always showed her good side with Geet in front of the family members .The family of Maan treated her well so she did not want to lose her control over her mind..She had made a good place in their eyes on Maan’s birthday by not reacting in a wrong manner for spoiling the party..she had a big logic behind her thought of progressing in this relation that Maan accepted her proposal without giving a second though so she was sure that there was nothing from his side for Geet.Her only problem was Geet stealing all the care of concern of Maan..and Maan always showed his best side for Geet not for her even once..
Geet’s exams had started so the meetings between Maan and Ria reduced as he was taking the care of Geet’s studies..
At weekdays usually Ria too was busy as her father was not well so she was at office and on weekends only Maan and Ria could meet..but due to the exams of Geet those meetings too were not happening..
One Morning of Sunday..Ria was at Km to meet Maan as he did not meet her since last few weeks..She was going out of the city for some work so she wanted to meet Maan..she found dadi infront of her..She wished her and asked about Maan..Dadi told her about him to be in his room..
She reached there and the sight of the room burnt her every pore of skin…There she saw Maan and Geet sharing the same bad though they were sleeping very soundly
.. and any one could see that they both slept while studying at night..but Ria never thought that they were this close to each other that they could sleep together without any thought..and family too did not have any objection at this,but for Ria it was really a shock..she stood there for some time thinking if she should wake them up or not..before she could move to wake Maan she saw Geet turning in her sleep and next moment her head was on Maan’s shoulder and Maan s hand came on her head and petted on her head in his sleep..Maan even in his sleep was careful for Geet
This was unbearable for Ria and she returned back from there without disturbing them…she met dadi in the way..
Dadi-Ria..where are you going ? you came just now..Is Maan still sleeping?
Ria-Ji ..Geet too is there..they are sleeping
Dadi was now confident that she knew about Maan and Geet’s relation very well and accepted it with open heart..so she said to her-yes…Nowa days geet s exams are going on so she might have slept with him..she is very much fond of Maan..she can do anything what Maan says to her to do…and both care very well for each other..I m happy that you understand it..Geet is the reason of Maan’s smile..he got her on the day when he lost his parents..I m really relieved now .Otherwise I was scared that no one could understand them ..Maan was right in choosing you as his life partner.. she caressed her face with love-I m so happy..
Ria gave her a smile-Thanks dadi..I m lucky too to have Maan as my life partner..He is very nice..Now I m going..I m getting late
Dadi-But why are you leaving without meeting Maan? Have breakfast with us..I m gonig to wakeup Maan
Ria-No Dadi..it’s ok…I think they both were awakened till late so let them sleep for some more time..I will meet him later..I m going out of City for some days that’s why I came to meet him..It’s ok ..I will talk to him on phone…Bye dadi.
Dadi-Bye beta..I will tell him that you came to meet him..
Ria-Ji …and as she turned her back towards dadi to go out and her expressions changed and softness in her eyes disappeared and her eyes started to burn with anger..she reached home and went in to her room..She shut the door behind with a bang.
She threw her sandals in the room -I don’t know what the magic that Geet has done on Maan. I can’t believe ..they were sleeping on the same bad..I know that there was nothing wrong but this is not good for me. I will have to stop this..otherwise she will not think twice before sleeping between me and Maan after our marriage.. No way…That I can’t bear at all..
And then her mind started to think-Should I think again on marrying Maan?.. I know no one in the family has a problem with them being so close to each other but what about me ? I cannot handle this..It’s just few months that I met her and I m not getting good vibes from Geet…I don’t have courage to see her between us..with being Geet around my life will be like hell..I think I should call off this marriage..Now I m feeling this bad only in these few days..what will happen after marriage..I will have to bear her every moment with Maan..
.and as she decided she heard someone laughing ..she looked here and there and found the replica of herself..
Ria-Who are you? And why are you laughing like this?
The replica-don’t you recognize me? I m your inner self..What happened? . You lost so easily?
Ria-what you mean I lost? I don’t think that I will be able to live peacefully with maan having Geet around us..I think it’s better to leave..I don’t want to be insecure for myself for my whole life.. There are many other rich and handsome guys in the world and each of them doesn’t have a Geet with them..and Maan right now does not love me too..he is only ready to marry me as we looks a perfect match for each other but there s Geet between us..I think it will be wise to call this marriage off.
Innerself with a smirk. Her voice was full of taunt- –Ria -The girl who impressed Maan with her intelligence and beauty is losing to a girl who is just eighteen years old and she even does not know the reality of the world
Comeon Ria..You are quite capable to keep her away..She is an innocent girl ..and you know she can do anything for her angel.. you saw that she sacrificed her birthday party only because of you.. so you can do something which can keep her away from Maan.. You have mind..Think about it.. I m sure you can find a way to get rid of her..Maan ..for whom the girls can die is going to marry you and you are putting your weapons down so easily that too because of that girl..Shame on you..You should fight for your right..You can not lose without fighting..If you are going to put down your weapons that Geet will win without even doing anything.. Will you let her win like this ? Will you ever be able to meet your eyes with you in the mirror?.Don’t forget that Maan does not love Geet in that way,,he is only possessive about her as she was born on the day when his lost his precious relations…that’s all..
Ria-But how will I do this?
Innerself-You are intelligent Ria..soon you will go to London for your father’s surgery..you will get enough time to think over it there..marriage can be called off even later..don’t lose so easily..till you come back from there you will have enough time to think over your decision..
Ria-I think you are right..I m not going to lose so easily. I will have to keep patience for this..I should not decide in a hurry…and she made herself determined to get Maan back in her life and only for herself…
After one hour she received a call from Maan-hi Ria ! Good morning..You came and went without meeting me?
Ria-yes I came but you were sleeping with Geet so I thought not to disturb you as I knew that you were awakened till late..
Maan-Thanks Ria..youa re so understanding..actually Mitthu was having some problems in maths to it took a lot of time to make her understand..and we did not know when we slept..
Ria smiled with a smirk-Comeon Maan Don’t thank me..After all I love you ..if I will not understand you than who will? So it’s ok..I m going out of town so will catch you later..Take care yourself and Geet too..Bye See you and she hung the call..She had found a way to think on her plan.
.(Keep Geet happy and accept her and all will trust you.. They all are so bonded with each other)
( Ria didnot know that actually she was thinking in a right direction but with a wrong intension)
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
Ria got busy in her work in office a she had to do lot of arrangements before leaving for abroad for her father’s surgery..Ria left for London with her father..That day Maan and family were there to see them off..Maan had talked to the dr. who was going to operate her father..he assured Ria and her father to join them there before his surgery…
After few days of Ria’s departure geet’s exams were over and she was now busy for appearing the entrance exams..
there was some time in her JEEE exam so Maan decided to see Ria’s father..and he went there and checked if he was fine or not..though he was not with Ria but Ram and Maan did not let them feel that they were alone there ..Ram was in constant tough with them..Even he too went once to meet them there. Ria’s father was much impressed with them and were feeling good to think about his daughter’s good luck..
Her father and Maan were talking about what was going in their lives..and he asked about Geet.How did she do in her exams?
Maan-she did very good..I hope she would get good score
Ria’s father- what she is planning to do?
Maan-She wants to be a architect
Rai’s Father-Good..from which college?
Maan-I wanted her to pursue her degree from the university from where I and Ria did our MBA..but she started to cry when told her about my wish..so she will do it from Delhi only..
Ria’s father-She is still a kid..
Maan smiled-Yes..she is and we all are responsible for that..She is the source of the lighting in our all lives..and Ria’s father gave a wide smile at this
Ria was listening all the talks and she too smiled with them…every news regarding Geet was important for her
Dr. decided to operate Ria’s father some days later as he was having High BP ..so it was going to take some time to be normal.( Don’t know anything about the medical terms so please ignore if I m saying anything wrong)..Maan spent few days with Ria..and Geet ..whenever she needed to talk to her angel called him and Maan like ever gave he due attention..Ria watched it quietly without reacting as she had decided in her mind that she would not lose so easily to Geet who was totally immature girl in her eyes..
She could see that Maan was committed and was fulfilling his duties towards her father as much he could..and that was quite satisfactory for her and was giving her the courage to work on her thinking what her mind suggested her to do to get Maan withour having Geet around..but right now she needed a cool mind to think about it.. First priority was her father at that moment..
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
Geet gave her entrance exams..and now they only could wait for the results of both exams…
Family decided to go on vacations to London.. By doing so they could meet Ria’s father too…
He had got operated till then and the surgery was successful..but he needed full bed rest for a long time as surgery was complicated..So Ria was going to stay in London for more than a month as she did not want him to take the tension of business..In India their business was being taken care by Sahil who was Ria’s cousin and was quite closed to them
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
Family was in London and they stayed at Sujata’s home.. Happiest person was Mohit to see them there..specially seeing Geet he was almost was flying with Joy..
Geet was looking prettier than before and Mohit’s heart skipped a beat seeing her.Glow of growing age was adding the beauty in her personality,,
but innocence of Geet and Maan’s protective nature stopped him to express his feelings in that way for Geet..He himself was not that mature..he was just 19+..so could not collect courage to give the voice to his feelings..He was a good friend of Geet and tried to be like that only..he decided to wait for voicing his heart..In his POV he might needed Maan’s permission to think like that for Geet..
They spent 15 days there and they enjoyed a lot spending their vacation in the city..Saumya and her husband too joined them ..They explored the city together and collected many memories in the form of pics..
And most happy was Mitthu who had her angel beside her ..he fulfilled all her demands so she did not care for Priya’s anger or Ram’s instruction to take care of herself..she did everything there which a tourist could do to enjoy..
The most she enjoyed was the wax statues of bollywood Stars at MADAME TUSSAUDS..
Geet did not leave any statue which she did not ask Maan to click her pics with
..Even she forced him to click his pics with some.
(Both Pics of Maan and Geet with wax statues are edited by Lakshmi..some times these girls have to bear my torture for editing the pics.. I love you so much Lakshu and Priya for being so patient)
And amidst of all fun and joy they did not forget to visit Ria’s father ..who was recovering slow from his illness..Ram and Maan were always in the touch of Ria..Maan was doing his all responsibilities towards Ria as well as his own family
Part-17
Family was back with the trip..Ria was still in London with her father as the environment was most suited for him there..he was recovering there very nicely
Geet’s result of her boards was out she as expected got the highest marks in her class..and three days later the result of entrance exams was out too..Geet’s AIR was under 100 so she was going to get IIT Delhi easily..
All were happy in the family…and happiest person was Mithu’s angel as she had proven herself and she proved too that she wasn’t a spoiled child of the family even after getting too much love and pampering..
That day Maan fulfilled her every wish fpr whatever she asked
Maan informed Ria as well as her father about Geet getting the admission in IIT Delhi..
Ria’s father was happy for that but Ria was ok..she did not show any excitement..
But she asked him-Maan you wanted her to do her arc itecture from our university then why don’t you tekll her your wish..
Maan-Ria I only said once but she started to cry and now ,..I don’t want make her cry again for my wish..Im happy only when I see her happy..so it doesn’t matter for me where she studies..
Ria-But Maan you do so much for her…can’t she fulfill your wish?
Maan-Ria .. I don’t do anything for her to get something in return…relations do not run on give and take rules..they run on love and trust only..
Ria listened to him and kept quite as she knew that more pestering would create a doubt in Maan’s mind..
Once or twice Ria came to India as some documents needed he signatures ..Her cousin Sahil was taking a good care of their business..Maan hadn’t meet him even once
As expected Geet got her desired course in IIT Delhi and she joined IIT..she got busy in her studies as Architecture was eating her good amount of time in making projects …
Sometimes she was very sad and cribbed for not getting time for anything…but all were there for her to support..whenever she was upset..dadi was there with her fav. red halwa or sometimes Maan took her to her fav. Street food.. and she always forgot her frustrations and cribbing..
Gradually she was adjusting in her new life…
Ria too returned with her father after spending few months in London..Her Father was perfectly fine by now..
But by then the auspicious time for marriage had ended so they all waited for the auspicious time to come for the marriage and the marriage was going to take place in the Month of Nov…(Present Month is September )
Ria so many times tried to hint Maan indirectly that he was a man and geet was a girl who was grown up too, so there should be a reasonable distance between them but But Maan never gave his ears for what she was talking ..He never took her seriously as mitthu was always the reason oh his happiness…He could not understand the actual reason behind her hints because he always thought that she was his family now and knew every thing about his family..He had seen at so many times that Ria accepted everything even she was not angry on geet on his birthday fiasco..She was seeing him and Mithhulike that since she entered in to this family and She never objected in a weird way…
But he did not know that she was feeling insecure..Finally Ria decided to share his feelings with maan but she could not say it to him directly that she was insecure..
she tried to talk to him-Maan..Don’t you think that you should behave maturely with Geet..She may be immature but you are not..anyone can think in some other way seeing you both..as she never see where you both are she anywhere hugs you or kisses you.. I think you should tell her to behave in a mature way as she is a girl and anyone can take it wrong..
Maan-Come on Ria..Have you seen her age?..she is very small..just 18..and for me she always will be my mitthu who held my finger tightly on the day she was born.. she is always that baby for me who needs me at every step..More over she is the reason of my every single smile.She will never grow for me…and most important fact is that I don’t live my life for others..we all are one family ..and you too are going to be a part of this family..you have yourself seen this that how much we care for each other..we are ready to do anything for everyone..we all supported each other at the time when we were passing thru with a tough phase.. we all understand each other then I don’t need any certificate from outsiders for our characters..koi zaroori nain ki har rishte ka ek naam aur certificate ho..You tell me ..Do you find anything wrong? Don’t you know me or Mitthu?
Ria gulped her saliva-No Maan..I didn’t mean that..I was just tinking about others..as Geet is a girl..why I will have a problem with that?After all I m going to be a part of the family where everyone is living the relations so perfectly even if there is no blood relation..itna pyaar to ek real family me bhi nahin hota..But I want to know Maan if you have started to love me or not…now we are together for so many years..
Maan-Ria..who ever is my family..I love them..you too are going to be a part of my family so obviously I love you too..after all you are going to be my wife and will be my responsibility after our marriage
Ria was little disappointed at this How much she tried to win his heart…she tried to be too good with Geet but Maan’s feelings were still same for her..- Things were still same between them..He loved her as she was going to be her wife not because they were in love and were going to spend their life …
Ria’s good side of heart received the defeat as Maan was not ready to listen her or to change his behavior about Geet ..Though she knew that Maan never had any feeling for Geet other than that elderly love but that was a hard fact too that Geet was first and foremost priority for Maan. The worst fact was that and he was still not in love with Ria…They were still in a relation of understanding not of love..She knew it well from earlier but was not ready to accept that..but this was a sufficient reason for her to feel insecure with Geet.. The date for marriage had already fixed and her insecurities were growing with the time..But she was not ready to back out..
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
Ria’s father wanted to throw a party to introduce Maan as his would be son in law to his relatives and friends..He invited Maan’s family..
Ram showed his helplessness in coming as he was going out of country for some business schedules..but he assured him that rest of the family would attend the party..
On the day of the party..Dadi’s BP shot up unexpectedly and Dr. adviced her to take bed rest for few days..Priya decided to stay back with her..She called Ria’s father and explained the situation and assured him that maan would definitely be coming and she would be sending Geet too along with him ..Ria’s father asked her to take care of dadi…and he was satisfied that at least Maan was coming…
Party
Maan entered in to the hall with Geet…Ria’s father welcomed them and took them straight to some of his guests to introduce Maan..
Ria saw Geet alone with Maan and huffed-On no..only Geet? Now she is going to stick with Maan like a magnet though out the party in the absence of their family.
.Sahil was standing near Ria
His eyes shone with some brightness when he saw Geet-Wow what a s##y and hot girl..so beautiful..who is she? Is she the sister of jiju?
His eyes filled with lust
Ria heard him and said-Shut up..She is Geet..she is not his sister but is the family of Maan..Don’t even think like this about her …she is not a girl of that type..and she is just 18
Sahil-So what di..see yourself..how beautiful she is ..who says that an 18 year old girl can’t be hot and s##y…she is more beautiful than you di..I can bet..
Ria knew her cousin very well..though he was her fav. cousin but he was a flirt and play boy too..She knew Maan too that how protective he was for Geet..but Sahil’s one sentence that Geet was more beautiful than her made her Jealous.
.
She heard Sahil who was saying with deep breathe-She is so gorgeous..I wish I could spend some time with her
Ria thought in her mind and said to him-Sahil I can do a favor to you but promise me that you won’t cross your line with her..
Sahil looked at her –you are going to favour me? What’s the matter di? Are you jealous that she is more beautiful than you?.
Ria-Cut teh crap Sahil..I just want you to keep her away from Maan when I m with him..only just keep her busy with you..No other thing..Got it or not..or you will repent for that..
Sahil-Come on di..I m here to help you always..Now let’s go and introduce me to them..
Ria-Come ..and both went where Geet and Maan were with her father..He smiled to see his daughter and said-here he is Ria..you can take your charge over your fiance..
Ria smiled to see them..and introduced sahil to Maan and Geet..
Sahil shook hand with Maan first and then to Geet ..Geet too shook hand with him but felt his hold little tight on her hand
she pulled her hand away with little force..
and Sahil gave her a forced smile
They all stood there for some time talking on some random topics..Ria’s father excused himself and joined some other guests..
Music started and Ria asked Maan for a dance and sahil too took the advantage and asked Geet for a dance ..Geet looked at Maan to know what se should say..but Ra encouraged her-Haan Haan Geet..Go and enjoy..
Maan-But she does not know him well Ria..so how can she?
Ria-Oh..come on Maan..she is a grown up girl..and if you will not allow her to enjoy then how she is going to learn to cop up with society..He is my brother not some unknown person..(To Sahil) go and take a good care of her..she should not feel odd..Got it.. and she warned him with her eyes to behave well with geet..
Sahil-Off course di..don’t worry..and he took Geet on dance floor with him..
Ria and Maan and Geet and Rahul started to move with the music..Maan was having his eyes on Geet every now and then..
Sahil started to talk to geet in a very gentle and nice way..he talked in such a way that Geet smiled at his talks..Maan looked at Geet and found her smiling at Sahil’s talks..He became relieved to see her comfortable with sahil.. When Sahil noticed Maan being careless for Geet he started to move away from Maan and Ria slowly while dancing..Geet’s milky white skin and softness was provoking him to feel her more .He pulled her little more towards him..Geet felt uneasy and she said-Excuse me..what you are doing? I m not feeling good..leave me ..I don’t want to dance with you..
Sahil instantly said –sorry Geet actually I saw someone was going to stamp his foot on your foot so I pulled you to save you from the push..I did not mean any bad.…Geet’s back was towards Maan so Maan could not see her reactions ..Sahil’s face was visible for him and he was smiled to see Maan
Geet after wards became quite alert with sahil as she was not getting good vibes..but she could not understand what he was doing ..it was her first experience that she was with some unknown boy to dance..No one behaved with her like that..She looked here and there to find her angel but she found him dancing with Ria..
Geet had reacted to Sahil in a rude way so he could not repeat his act again ..but her innocence and beauty was provoking his play boy’s nature to feel her more now..and he forgot all the instructions of Ria..
He saw a waiter passing by there he put his foot forward and the waiter stuck in his way ..the drinks in his tray fell on Geet.. and Geet felt like crying to see her condition..
Sahil-Oh no..what is this?..he looked at the waiter with burning eyes who was standing there with helpless eyes and was literally shivering-I m really sorry sir..I don’t know how I got struck in something on floor..Ma’am please I m really sorry..don’t complaint against me..meri job chali jaayegi..He begged with his folded hands
Geet’s soft heart melted hearing the pleadings of the poor man-It’s ok bhaiya…jaaiye aap I m not going to complain against you..and he left hurriedly from there without thanking her..
Geet looked at her self and then in the direction of Maan
Sahil-Geet I think you should clean yourself..
Geet-ya you are right..I m going to tell angel ..he will help me to clean.
Sahil-come on Geet..if you will go to them in this state all can notice you there and they will laugh at you..I think you should not bother them..
Geet was nave so said-Is it? Then what should I do..
Sahil-very simple..I take you to the washroom..you can clean yourself there..
Geet-Ok..and Sahil took her to one room ..where he showed her the way to the washroom.and closed the door.
Geet –Why are you closing the door?
Sahil-so that noone can see you in this state from outside. You can clean your self now without any tension
Geet moved to go in to the washroom but he held her wrist and said-Geet you are very beautiful and soft..
Geet removed his hand from her wrist- Excuse me..what are you saying..I don’t like such talks…please leave my hand
Sahil-Oh Geet really you are too cute and very childish and I m loving this ..I want to make you mature..I want to make you feel something exciting..I m sure you will enjoy it..comeon Geet..let me make you feel something new..and don’t worry no one can come here as the music is loud outside..He indirectly hinted her that there was no use of shouting..and he tried to hid his face in her hair but Geet did not feel that good and pushed him away..
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
Party Hall
Maan looked here and there and he found Sahil and Geet missing from the dance floor..he looked around to see them but they were no where to be seen..
Maan-Ria ..sahil and Mitthu are not here..where they can be?
Ria-yahin kahin honge Maan..may be feeling tired so taking some refreshments..
Maan-No they are no where to be seen..excuse me.main dekh kar aata hoon.and he left her there and went to see Mitthu..he searched here and there but did not find them..He heart felt restlessness..His mind worked fast and he swiftly opened his mobile and searched for Mitthu’s picture in it..He showed it to some waiters and asked about her..The waiter who poured the drink on Geet recognized her and told Maan whatever happened..
Maan-Do you know where they went?..
Waiter-Yes Sir..
Few minutes earlier…
Waiter was already feeling obliged to Geet as she forgave him for his misdeed. He forgot to thank her for her goodness. he saw Sahil and Geet moving away from the dance floor so he thought to thank her but he saw them going in to the room and decided to wait for them to come out as he knew that she needed her dress to be cleaned…
Present moment
The waiter signaled towards a room in which he saw them going in..Maan marched towards the room hoping in his heart for everything to be in control..Ria saw Maan going and she too followed him
In room
Sahil pulled Geet towards him forcefully when she pushed him away..he clutched her shoulders and said-Geet..don’t act to be so innocent… every girl likes it..and no girl can say no to me..I promise you will enjoy it..and he tried to grab her face in her palms to take her plum lips in to his..Those soft and juicy lips were provoking him since he saw her from close on dance floor..but the girly instinct warned Geet that he was doing something wrong with her so she tried her best to move her face away from him..she even tried to scratch his face with her nails Sahil winced at this and his grip over her face loosened and Geet freed herself from him and ran towards the door which was already locked.Sahil tried to held her shoulder to stop her from running but he could only grab the dress and it torn as Geet ran ..
Geet tried to open the door but Sahil again caught her..but this time Geet was successful in shouting-Angelll..and Maan heard her shout as he was coming there..he rushed towards the room and tried to push the door..but it was locked..Maan was a muscular man and here his Mitthu was in danger so nothing could stop him to reach him to mitthu..He tried two or three times and door was down on the floor..His heart sank seeing mitthu..
Geet ran to him and hugged him tight-Angel..
Maan cocooned her in his embrace..She was crying badly..
And behind Maan was Ria..She was so shocked to see the scene in the room..She could not believe that Sahil ignored her warnings.
Sahil-No jeeju..she is lying..I just brought her here because her dress got spoiled..when we came here she started to ask me some strange questions about man and woman relation..I warned her that it was some adult matter but she was so curious to know that closed the door and insisted me to tell..when I denied she tore her dress..before he could complete his sentence he received a solid punch on his face..He held his face due to the pain and felt something sticky on his fingers..he saw his fingers and found blood on them..his nose was bleeding He looked at Maan with horror..Maan was standing in front of him burning with anger..his eyes were red as blood was ready to ooze out of them..
Maan-Dare you Sahil to say a word like that about her…Do you think I m going to believe your crap.?and he grapped Sahil’s collar-tumhaari himmat kaise hui use haath lagaane ki..what did you think? She is alone here…main hoo yahaan .. and you touched her in my presence this is a shame on me…but I swear..Sahil I m not going to leave you now..and he punched few more times on his face and in stomach..and Sahil was folded in double with pain..his face was in blood..
Ria-Maan Please leave him..I m sorry on his behalf..He will die…please leave him
Maan-Such people do not have a right to live..in his anger he forgot everything ..he picked up the small table from there and was going to hit Sahil with it but one voice stopped her-Angelll…
He looked at Mitthu..he could see her shivering with fear
.He dropped the table and went near her..
He took out his jacket and covered her as her dress was torn from her shoulder ..
He wiped her tears and hugged her to himself to console..Geet hid herself in his arms..
Part-18
Maan-Such people do not have a right to live..in his anger he forgot everything ..he picked up the small table from there and was going to hit Sahil with it but one voice stopped her-Angelll…
He looked at Mitthu..Her eyes were filled with water..He dropped the table and went near her..He took out his jacket and covered her as her dress was torn from her shoulder and hugged her to himself to console…She was shivering with fear and hid herself completely in him..
Sahil was on the floor holding his stomach..Ria looked at him for once but could not go near him seeing Maan boiling with anger..She said to Maan-I m really sorry Maan..and she put her hand on his arm but Maan snapped it -I told you Ria to not send her with this Bast*** but you had so much confidence on your brother.. Didn’t you know how your brother was? He deserves punishment for his deeds. I m calling Police right now and hearing the name of police Geet clutched him more tightly and Maan came to the senses and thought about Mithu..If he would call police Mitthu would have to face humiliation. And Ria too pleaded
Ria-I M really ashamed Maan.. Don’t call the police..please think about my dad ..he hadn’t still recovered from his illness.. IT will be bad for even Geet too..Please forgive him for my sake .
Maan-What? Me and forgive him ? No way Ria…Infact I don’t want to see him around Mitthu ever..Not even in our marriage..I don’t want mitthu to see his face ever after this moment… You will have to decide Ria.. Now and here only.. You have to decide I can’t tolerate this man near us.. you have to chose among us..This man or me..Because I can’t tolerate him for even one moment.. I will be waiting for your decision..saying this he held mitthu carefully and left from there without looking at Ria..
Ria kept looking at the retreating Figure of Maan having Geet in his arms..She then looked at Sahil who was still on the floor.. She came near him and he said-Di please help me..
Ria helped him in standing ..as he stood straight with her help..She slapped him hard on his face..
Sahil eyes went wider and asked in a shocked voice-Dii?
Ria-Shut Up Sahil..How dare you? I warned you to not to do anything with her… I just wanted you to keep her away from Maan..and see what have you done? You spoiled everything. Why did you do that?
Sahil -I m really sorry di I couldn’t control myself..she was so tempting …I don’t know how I got tempted by her.. I don’t understand how Jiju has so much control over himself with her being around him..
Ria-What do you mean Sahil?
Sahil- I m saying it as I think they are too close to each other and I m sure they are not like bro and sis.. Am I right di?
Ria felt something in his heart hearing Sahil and he was not wrong actually…Maan and Geet were not like siblings but she said to Sahil- Shut your mouth up Sahil..just stop your crap.. I was already finding it tough to deal with him and you have pulled me back again.. Now I have to chose one of you.. I m sorry Sahil but I m choosing Maan over you..
Sahil-Di? What do you mean? Will you leave me?
Ria-Right now I have no option..I have to..You haven’t left any option for me..If I chose you now I will lose Maan but if I chose Maan I can convince him later to forgive you..But he is not going to listen to me now..
Sahil-Di he loves you na so he will forgive me..I will ask for his sorry..please di let me say
Ria-You still think that he will forgive you..No Sahil I know him..when there is the question of geet he doesn’t take a chance..
Sahil- and what about his love for you?
Ria feared this question-Leave it sahil…I have to make decision right now but don’t worry..let the marriage happen once ..then I will try my best to convince him to forgive you..at this time his confidence is required on me..If I ask her to forgive you. He will surely leave me because that Geet comes first for him even before himself..Now let me think over it..Now you go and take rest and one more thing Dad should not know anything about this. He cannot take it so easily..
Sahil nodded and left with limping feet..
But Ria was lost in her thoughts..some thing has started to cook in her mind..
>>>>>>>>>>
Outside of Ria’s house
Maan helped Geet to sit in the car but she was not ready to leave him She was still crying with fear ..and Maan was really feeling bad for her condition..He caressed her face and said-Mitthu..don’t be scared..nothing had happened..you are safe and I m with you..Don’t you trust me..I promise Mitthu… he will never show you his face.. Geet trying to hear him but was sobbing badly..
Maan-Mitthu we have to go home na..so let me drive..and please calm down..kuchh nahin hua hai..that was bad dream only..trust me mitthu. Do you want to stay here for whole night?
And Geet shook her head in a no
Maan_ok ..so to reach home I have to drive ..and you have to leave me for that…and finally geet left him and he closed the door of her side and sat on the wheels.. Geet continued to sob and Maan was again and again consoling her..after few minutes Geet’s eyes closed and she slept due to crying and tiredness..she was still in his jacket..Maan saw her sleeping and took a sigh of relief for her..
he caressed her face with love and his own eyes became wet seeing her .Till now he was controlling himself for her but she was sleeping and his mind diverted towards Sahil and Ria..
His eyes filled with hatred for Sahil and anger for Ria.. and he made his mind more determined to punish that Bas### for his deeds..
He stopped the car as they were home..He looked at Geet she was still sleeping..Maan came out of the car and opened the door of Geet’s side..He called her-Mitthu..but she did not respond..
maan scooped her in his arms and brought her in her room. He settled her in bed but her sleep was little disturbed and in half sleep she started to shout-Please leave me …Don’t touch me and she was pushing Maan away from her and started to call Maan-Angel..please save me..and she started to sob again..
Maan heart felt pain to see Mitthu like that but he tried to pacify her-Mitthu ! it’s me ..Angel..calm down and he tried to wake her up by giving her jerks and Geet opened her eyes.
Maan held her face in his palms-Mitthu we are at home..see this is your room.. But Geet hugged him tightly with fear as someone was going to catch her..Maan too cocooned her and patted her back to make her calm.in few minutes she was breathing heavily but calmly..She had slept again..
Maan made her sleep in bed again and his eyes fell on her torn dress.. He felt a pung of pain in his heart..he never thought in his wildest dream to see Mitthu in this condition..his anger and hatred on Sahil grew more.. but he had to handle Mitthu at that moment..He looked at his watch..It was quite late.. He did not want anyone to see Mithhu in that state in the morning specially the servants..She needed a change of dress..He decided to change it himself..He took out the upper of her night dress from her closet and switched off the light and changed her dress..
He made her sleep and covered her with the blanket .
.he got up to go but Geet held his hand tightly
she was scared even while sleeping..Maan settled beside her in the bed and slept there only as she was holding his hand tightly…
>>>>>>>>>>>
Morning..
Dadi entered in to the room and found them sleeping. She too was better now…She woke up Maan and Maan opened his eyes..he saw dadi there..then he looked at Geet she was still sleeping..
Dadi-Maan when did you come at Night?
Maan-Dadi we came around midnight..
Dadi-How was the Party?
And Maan remembered the night at party ..his palm turned in to a fist to control his anger.-it was OK dadi.. me and Mitthu got bore there so left little early..
Dadi smiled and caressed Geet’s face to wake her up but shocked to know that she was burning with fever
Dadi-Maan she is having fever..Did she eat something wrong there?
And Maan immediately put his hand on her forehead-You are right dadi she is in fever..No she did not eat anything there..
Dadi-Ok..and she tried to wake her up as she needed some medicines and for that she had to eat something first-Geet get up ..see it’s morning now..
Geet woke up and saw dadi infront of her..she recalled the night and after sitting in bed she hugged dadi and cried-Dadii..
Dadi-Kya hua Geet? Ro kyun rahi ho?
Geet-Dadi wo.. wahaan..and Maan cut her in the middle-Nothing Dadi she is sick na so she is crying..he did not want dadi to take stress after knowing the truth as she too was not well..her BP was too high last day..Geet looked at him and he signaled her to keep quite by shaking his head..and she understood..
Dadi patted her head till she was calm..she kissed her temple and said-I m bringing your BF ..You need to take medicine..Right?
And Geet nodded..Dadi left and Maan sat near Geet-Mitthu don’t tell anyone..they will be sad.and Dadi has high BP so the tension is not good for her..and you too try to forget that… it will never happen again.. . and never mention it even before your friends too..Right? Maan knew that she was too innocent to think in a mature way..so e needed to make her understand ..
Just then Priya and Ram entered the room Dai had informed them about Geet having fever..Priya hugged her-Geet how are you now? How did you get fever Did you eat or drink something chilled
Geet-I m sorry Mamma. I drank soft drinks and they were too chilled ..
Priya-Geet you are not a kid..you know na that winters have started then why did you drink..
Ram-Priya please..she is having fever and you are scolding her ..Geet was sitting there with low head and was listening to her parents..
Maan too supported Geet..Haan maa please ..don’t say anything to her..
Priya-Ok..but take care in future ..Ok?
And Geet nodded..
Dadi came there with BF and Priya made Geet ate some of it so that she could take the medicine. Ram called the dr and told about Geet and he suggested some medicines on phone ..Ram sent one servant to buy the medicines..
He returned in few minutes and Priya helped Geet to eat the medicines…
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
Ria was in KM to meet Maan.. Dadi welcomed her and told her that Geet was having fever and she was with Maan in her room.. Ria was more scared of Maan now… But she prepared herself more as she was there to tell him her decision
Dadi and Priya were in kitchen to look after the lunch…Ram had gone to office..Maan knew the real reason of Geet’s fever so he decided to stay at home with her..She may need him there with her..
Ria entered in to Geet’s room..
Maan looked at her then at Geet..She too looked at Ria and then lowered her eyes.. seeing Ria she again remembered Sahil and her eyes welled up..
Maan noticed her and lifted her face by her chin..and wiped her tears and looked at Ria with anger-You are seeing Ria what did your brother do with her..
Ria-Maan I m really sorry,. I m really feeling bad for Geet and she came near Geet and said sorry to her..
Maan-Ria.. I am saying it again to you that you have to chose one of us because I can’t bear is presence near any of us.. Such people do not deserve any sympathy or affection..such people cannot leave their habits..so It’s decided that I m not ready to see him again …and I mean it..
And may be Ria was underestimating Maan and his power…She heard Maan and decided to go with her decision of convincing Maan to forgive Sahil after their marriage..
She said-Maan You are right..I too think so..he was wrong and I have decided to go with you..I have told him to go from our life..
Maan was not sure is she was sure or not-Are you sure ..Just think one more time Ria… I m not going to forgive him in any case..
And Ria did something unexpected..She hugged Maan and Maan was not expecting it so he held her from her both arms to balance himself..It was looking if he too was hugging her back..Geet looked them in that position and she turned her eyes from them.. She did it unknowingly
Ria-Maan.. I can do anything for you After all I love you.. I can’t live without you..
Geet heard that and looked at them for a moment..
Maan took few second to understand what Ria was doing.. .Ria wanted to tell Maan and may be specially Geet that she loved Maan… May be she was feeling more insecure after listening Sahil about Maan and Geet..
Maan after few moments parted Ria away from him and said-Thanks Ria for favoring me..
Ria-Thanks to you too Maan for understanding me I was scared that you will be angry on me too because of Sahil. and will leave me too
Maan- I was angry on you Ria because you allowed Sahil to go near her ..But now you have realized your mistakes and that’s enough for me…
And Ria nodded in agreement… and she left from there after spending some time.. Priya asked her to stay for lunch with them but she did not and after talking to dadi about her health ,she left…
Priya brought Geet’s food in room and asked maan to go down stairs to have lunch…
Geet pleaded her mother not to force her to eat but priya was the one who was most strict with her among the family members..
She insisted her to have food
Geet-Mamma abhi to khaya than na..Now I don’t want to eat..I m not feeling hungry
Priya- Geet your second dose id due ..You have to eat something for that
..Geet looked at Maan with pleading eyes to save her..
Maan smiled and said to Priya-Maa you go I will have my lunch with Mitthu and will make her eat her food too…and saying this he took the food from Priya’s hand and forced her to go and have lunch with dadi..
Priaty after ensuring of Maan again and again left from there as Dadi too needed her food since she was too on medicines..
After Priya left Maan sat near her. He made a morsel of the food and brought it near her mouth..
Geet-Angel No please.. I don’t want to eat.. I m really full..
Maan-Mitthu.. maa is right you need food to have medicines..
Geet-nahin Angel please…
Maan did not want her to force and at the same time he wanted her to have her food..He cupped her face in his both hands and said-Mitthu.. I can’t see you like this..I want you to smile again..I want my that naughty Mitthu back.. For that you have to recover soon .Don’t you want to be fine soon?
Geet looked in Maan’s eyes..She could see care concern and love there ..She nodded to him and he in return kissed on her temple and then on cheeks..and Geet closed her eyes feeling those kisses on her face..May be Sahil heinous act had woken up womanly senses in her. She was feeling protected in Angel’s hands where as Sahil’s one touch made her feel yuck..And .unknowingly she reacted to those kisses.. First time she felt something else which she did not feel earlier when her Angel kissed her..because it was not te first time tat Maan was kissing her but se was feeling some difference today and what it was she couldn’t understand
Maan smiled at her and started to feed her and Geet without protesting started to eat.. her eyes were on her angel who was showering his love on her..and her concentration broke when she heard her Angel-wow that’s great Mitthu..You finished your food and he again kissed on her cheeks -That’s my Mitthu and Geet felt something in her tummy but did not know what it was..
After their lunch maan switched on the TV and asked Geet what she wanted to see..and geet took the remote from his hand..
Maan-ok Mitthu you watch the TV ..I will be back after some important call..I m here only just near you OK?
Geet looked at his face… and nodded..
Maan left from there to make his call
Geet was thinking about Angel.He was her Angel who was ready to sacrifice his Love (Ria) for her.. and he did not think once before threatening Ria to leave Sahil forever amile crept on Geet’s face thinking about her Angel.but then she remembered that Ria too loved him and she too was ready to leave her brother forever only for him as she loved Angel.. and while thinking about Ria and Maan she felt her heart beating little faster..and she did not know why it was happening with her
Geet had turned in to a mature girl overnight.. She leaned on bed post while thinking about angel and Ria..
She started to watch some movie and there was commercial break.so she started to surf the channels and she suddenly stopped at one as there was running a scene where villain was forcing a girl and Geet agian got scared and started to cry
and Maan who had just finished his call came there and saw her crying..he looked at TV and understood the whole thing..he swiftly turned the TV off and hid her in him to protect her..
Geet clutched him and Maan’s hold got tighter on her..He could feel her pain..He took his phone and called some one-Do just now whatever I told you to do..I want to see the results as soon as possible..and I don’t want to hear that you failed in doing that..Got it? And after hearing the person on the other side he smirked and said in his own mind-Be ready Sahil to face the consequences of what you did.. I will not let live you in peace..
He was still holding Geet in his protected arms and and waited for her to calm down..
and her sobs were reducing..Maan made her sit properly on bed and she was still clinging to him
Maan-Mitthu.. chup ho jaao please.. I can’t see you like this.. and geet felt some drops of hot water falling on her cheeks..she had stopped to cry and only was sobbing so she touched her own cheeks and felt some water there..it was not her tears as she had stopped crying..then she looked at angel’s face..and she saw tears in his eyes which were wetting her own cheeks.. She got alert and wiped his face-I m sorry Angel..please don’t cry.. I promise ..I will not cry again..
Maan-do you promise me?
Geet-Yesss I promise..
And Maan smiled to hear that- Ok I don’t want you to cry again for that man..He is no one to us Mitthu… and control yourself..If anyone in family knows about the truth they will be in pain Mitthu because we all love you.. and Geet nodded..
Maan-Now you take rest..sleep for some time..you will feel better..
And Geet did what he said..her eyes were on his face. She was constantly staring at him..Maan saw her staring and asked with his eyes-What happened
and she shook her head in a no..
Maan smiled and kissed her and asked her to sleep
She was watching her angel in a new light and it was making her feel different for her angel…She was unaware of the changes in her..
Part-19
Geet slept for few hrs and Maan finished his work some of his office work and some for sending that Bas#### Sahil behind the bars..
Geet woke up in the evening.Ram came back early from office. all were at Km today ..they had dinner together and Priya asked Geet to come with them as Maan was looking tired for taking care of her for the full day. He too needed some rest.
Maan looked at geet and asked-Mitthu Do you want to go?
Geet nodded in yes..
Maan-Are you ok now.. don’t stress yourself..Ok..
And Geet again nodded..
And Ram and Priya returned to their house with Geet..
Priye settled Geet in er bed and said-Gete today I m going to sleep with you
Geet-No Mamma I m fine..don’t worry…I slept for long earlier and m not feeling sleepy right now so you will be disturbed..
Priya -Are you sure
Geet-yes mamma don’t worry.. I m perfectly fine..
Priya-Ok then.. Good night and if you need any thing just call me..Ok
Geet-Ok .Mamaa please give me that photo album..I want to see that…
Priya lauged-Geet you are really crazy..how many time would you see that?
Geet-Mammaaa ..and she pouted in her famous style.. Priya took out the album from the closet and gave it to Geet-Geet Try to sleep early beta.. you are not well..
Geet-Ok Mamma ..and Priya gave her a good night kiss on her cheeks-Good night Geet
Geet -Good Night mamma.. and Priya went after closing the door of the bedroom..
Geet started to look in to the album..
this album contained her and Angels photographs.. and she always loved to see them.. She had always found those pictures her mood boosters. Geet was watching the pictures ..A smile appeared on her face seeing them..
she was recalling their all the captured moment..How much she troubled Angel for everything but he never said a word to her..always fulfilled her said or unsaid demands..Geet’s lips curled in to a broad smile.. while flipping pages of album she stopped at one pic.. It was the picture in which Maan was smiling… Geet caressed that pic with her fingers..Her heart raced little fast while doing that. Her hand stopped for a while on Maan’s face .she could not remove her gaze from his face as if she was watching him for the first time..and lost in her thoughts she took that album close to heart and hugged it …
And in his Room Maan in his sleeping state heard some sounds as if someone’s heart was beating very fast..He opened his eyes sat in the bed. He looked around for some but no one was there ..He still could hear those heart beats ..
but being unable to understand he shrugged his mind thinking it to be a sound of some clock..He drank the water and slept again..
Geet took out the pink diary which was kept under the mattresses of her bed..picked up her red pen and started to pen down her feelings whatever she wanted to…and while writing in the diary she did not know when she fell asleep
Geet opened d her eyes hearing the voice of Angel-Good morning Mittu..
She opened her eyes and found angel smiling in front of her eyes
… Maan saw her open eyes ..he checked her forehead first with the back of his hand to see if she was having temperature or not..She was fine ..Maan looked at her and found her looking at him only..
He smiled and asked -Kya hua Mitthu? Why are you looking like this.Are you watching me for the first time? .
and he ruffled her hair and she removed her eyes from his face hearing her sentence and said-Good morning Angel ..and while wishing him she slipped her diary under pillow quietly to hide it from angel..
Maan looked at the album on the side table and picked that in his hand.He opened it and looked in to it-Mitthu tumne abhi tak sambhaal kar rakha hai isko?
Geet-Hmm.. I love watching them..
Maan smiled at her and said-..Ok.. mithhu chalo.maa papa and dadi are waiting for you on breakfast..and Geet got down from the bed and went in to the washroom..
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
Maan and Geet came down where all were waiting for them .. all asked her about her health and she smiled in reply..It was Sunday… so they were not in hurry to go to office… they were in hall TV was on .. Geet was sitting with Ram on sofa..watching the TV.. Ram was flipping through the chennals..and he stopped atone of the news channels. Breaking news was being aired..The News reporter was saying- People do so many crime by hiding behind the big names.Despite having to much money they want more money and that too in a very quick ways… Last night the nephew of a well known business man was arrested for dealing with drugs mafia..His name is Sahil mehra . Sahil s picture was flashing on the screen…Reported further said- he is the Nephew of a Mr. Ashok Mehra..He was helping him in his business… Daughter of Ashok Mehra is the fianc of the heir of KMC.. Mr. Maan Singh Khurana ..who too are a well reputed family not only in this country but in other countries too… Everyone is shocked at this news..Why he needed so much money even after coming from such a reputed family..
Geet started to shiver seeing Sahil there but next moment she found Angel sitting near her ..He looked at her and shook his head in a no..He put his arm around her shoulder and caressed her there making her assured that he is there..He blinked his eyes at her..and kissed on her forehead..
All the family members were looking at screen with shocked eyes.. they were not understanding what was going there…
They heard the reporter-He was taken under arrest last night from Mehra house.. Police found a large amount of different kind of drugs in his car.. He was having some wounds on his body at the time of arrest… It was seemed if he had some fight with someone.. on asking about those wounds he could not give satisfactory answers to the police. So police is connecting those wounds to his drug dealing business…his crime comes under non bail able warrants..That means it’s not easy for him to come out of the bars..
Geet looked at her angel . His every act was having a different impact on her… she could see some satisfaction there.. She had become matured in some ways overnight..Some where she too felt good to see him smiling. He was so much disturbed for her from last two days… and now he was smiling and Geet felt happy too…
The servant informed them about the arrival of Mehras..Ria and her father came to meet them..Maan looked at them ..he wished Ria’s father and Ria..
Ashok Mehra who was looking too old today.. He was ashamed of his nephew’s shameful act.. He was there for asking a sorry to them as their name was to dragged because of Sahil-Mr. Khurana ..I m really sorry for whatever happened..I did not know that Sahil was like that.. He is like my son to me after his parents got divorced and married again leaving him alone..I could not expect this from him..I m really sorry..
Maan looked at Ria. She had nothing to say about Sahil..She had seen what he did with Geet and even Maan’s reaction on that too..but still she could not believe that Sahil could be involved in drug dealings..
Maan said to Ashok-Uncle.. everyone has to be punished for his irresponsible acts.. Sahil had done the crime so he had to be punished but that doesn’t mean that you all should be punished for that.. You did not do anything so why you are saying sorry.. The person who did wrong got the punishment..Please you don’t feel bad.. and nothing bad is going to happen with our name because of this news.
Ria could see some different expressions on Maan’s face as if he was very happy for what ever happened with Sahil.. Geet was standing with him. …
Ria knew that Sahil was never involved in such activities.. He was a Casanova and was always behind the girls. He never left a chance to get her for himself and most of the time he was successful in charming the girls but this time he eyed a wrong girl and result was Maan’s outburst.. That day she convinced Maan for not making the police complaint.. But today she could not do anything as police had arrested him with the proofs.. Some how she did not like those satisfactory expressions on Maan’s face and felt her inside burning to see Geet near Maan.. Her every step was proving wrong again and again for herself.. Though she herself did not want Sahil to behave Geet like this but right now she was not having any sympathy for Geet..She was worried for er brother.. She could see that Maan had handled Geet very well and she was now out of that nightmare. One more time she was feeling herself defeated..She had broken up her ties with her brother to win Maan’s trust but that was proven useless as Sahil was behind the bars for some other reasons and Maan had another reason for hating him…
She was unable to think positive whenever she saw Geet and Maan together..always a fear engulfed her mind for herself with Geet being near Maan…Sahil’s talks about Maan and Geet only increased her fear..
Precap-Geet back in college and realizes her love for her angel
Part-20
On the way back returning from Malhotra mansion ,Ria and her father met Sahil in the jail..
Sahil saw them and started to cry-Uncle please save me.. take me out from here..
Ashok-Sahil you did wrong .. I did not expect this from you. You really ashamed me. I know that you are little over pampered but you did this to us in return of our love? Why Sahil? You have enough money to fulfill your needs then why this drug dealing?
Sahil-Uncle I swear.. I did not do any thing.. I m sure someone as trapped me..
Ashok-Why anyone will trap you?Have you done something wrong with someone..
And this caught the attraction of Ria..She looked at Sail and Sahil looked at her-Can Maan do this? She had seen a satisfied smile on Maan’s face earlier.. so she had some doubt if maan was behind it or not..
Sahil pleaded to his uncle and after seeing him crying he melted .. He talked to the in charge of the police station but he informed that he was under arrest of non-bailable warrant .. they could not help them in that case as drug dealing is a big crime..
Helplessly Ria and her father returned from there..
After reaching home ria investigated all the guards but found no clue about how those drugs packets came in Sahil’s car..
No guard was absent or went on leave unexpectedly… (The person who was hired by Maan to accomplish the task was a professional who did not leave any loop hole in that plan)
Ria could not find any reason to doubt on Maan so she shrugged off her mind for thinking all that..and thought that Maan was satisfied as Sahil was behind the bars and he got an indirect punishment for doing that with geet..He was ready to call the police that day itself but she stopped him by taking her sick father’s name
But she was really feeling miserable on the situation.. more she was trying to win Maan’s trust less she was getting success in her that effort…
>>>>>
Geet after resting for one more day joined her college back.. Friends came to her and asked about her heath as they had been informed by Geet that she was not going to attend classes as she was sick..
It was free time for the friends as the professor was absent.. Just then one friend of Geet saw someone and said to all-Look at them…they are rally looking cute together and all the eyes went in to the direction where she was pointing.. A boy and a girl were passing through there..They waved their hands at them and went away
Geet-What happened .. why are you saying like this? They are looking like earlier what’s special?
Friend-Geet you don’t know .. it happened when you were absent..they like each other..
Geet-So what’s new in that news..They are friends na so obviously they like each other..
Friend-No Geet not that type of like it’s something else.
Geet-What else is there..?
Another friend-Geet They love each other
Geet-Arrey baba friends hain to wo k dusre ko pyar bhi karenge na nafrat to nahin karenge
All friends giggled at Geet’s talks and the the girl who was telling her held her head- Geet.. you don’t know any thing.. ye wo wala pyaar nahin dusra wala pyaar hai..
Geet-Dusra wala.. Love is love . what is first and what is second? She was really confused at what her friends were saying..
Geet -Say clearly na.. what you are saying ..first love or second love..I m hell confused
Friend-Geet they were friends but not any more.. they have recently realized that they love each other
Geet-And How did they know it? They know each other since long
Friend-Geet it happens when someone feels love for someone..
Geet-Do you know about it? how any one realizes that he or she is in love?
Friend-Geet when our heart started to beat little faster suddenly when you are close to that special person that means we are in love with that person. When that person makes you feel special and keep you above everything and that effort of that person makes you fall in love with him because he is the one who always keeps you in priority and such men are lovable Geet.. when he touches you and you feel some goose bumps or some butterflies in your tummy that tells you that you have fallen in love with him..
This hit Geet’s mind.. she remembered how she was feeling little different when her angel hugged her that day after coming back from Ria’s party. He was very angry on Ria di for letting her brother come close to her.He was ready to kill that Bas#### for his crime and he did not even think about Ria di that time. and after that she did not know what she was feeling but she felt something different for her angel..
Friend was continuing-When you are close to him and you feel that this is the place where you belong or feel peace.you are always safe there. that means you are in love..Jiske liye tum kuchh bhi karna chaaho bina apni khushi ke bare me soche.. that means you are in love with that person..When you want to keep fast on karwa chauth for his long life while hiding it from all. And that becomes a most precious moment of our life. That means you are in love.. when his smile brings a smile on your face that means you are in love
Geet remembered how she lied to angel on her birthday to not celebrating it with him for his happiness as Ria di wanted him with her to celebrate his birthday…After all Ria had the first right on angel as they were in love.. and then she remembered how she used to fast for his angel’s long life and hid it from everyone..
Geet wondered-Did all those thing show that I love angel..but how it is possible.. How can I love him ..Angel loves Ria di and this is Ria di’s right to feel love for angel…
and she asked her friend again-Can we stop ourself from loving any one?
Friend-No Geet..this is not in our hands..Pyar kiya nahin jaata …pyar to bas ho jaata hai..
Geet’s heart beated fast for an unknown fear. and she again asked her friend keeping her fingers crossed- what if we fall in love with someone who is already in with another girl?
Friend took deep breath and said-Then I must say that you are one of the most unlucky girls of the earth Geet.. if you fall for the one who is in love with someone else then definitely you are going to lose him..as you are trying to come between those two lovers and you will have to sacrifice your feelings for him..If that person comes to know that you love him he may get angry on you and will stop talking to you as he will definitely not like this thought of you as he already loves someone else and obviously he will be interested in spending his life with his love only
And Geet became little sad hearing this-That means I even can’t tell angel that I love her..He will get angry on me.. And nothing is wrong in that becauset it’s all my fault that I love him.No one other than me is wrong here… so I have to hide it from him..if someone in family knows that I m in love with angel then all will get angry on me.. No way Geet.. don’t share it with anyone..If you want angel talk to you forever then you will have it as a secret within you…
And masoom Geet decided to hide her love from everyone as she feared that her angel would be angry on her after knowing that she loves him..For her it was Ria’s right to love him..
In the evening Geet reached home and received a surprised welcome from her angel.. maan swept her off her feet and twirled her in the air
Maan-Mitthu I m so happy.. and Geet could not understand anything but her heart did a summersault in her angel’s secured arms
Maan put her on the floor after a quite long ride in his arms and hugger her tightly. … Her head was on his heart and she could hear his heart beats which were racing fast due to immense excitement..
She closed her eyes feeling heavenly there. Now she knew that this was the place where she always felt safe and secured..It was not the first time for her to be in her angel’s arms but today she has got a name for those feelings..
Maan then packed her forehead and said-Mitthu today we cracked a big deal and you know what is special in that?.. Mitthu you are the partner in that deal.Maan was looking excited-. I mean whatever profit we gain will be shared by you too.. From today you too are an active partner of our company..so congrats partner..he brought his hand in front of Geet ..Geet smiled and held his Hand..Her eyes were on angel’s face which was glowing with happiness..and Geet felt some peace in her heart seeing him happy.. she could not make him angry for her stupid feeling of love.. No way..
That moment made her little mature and she like always became that chirpy Geet for her angel-Really angel? Wow I m happy too.. but how will I work with you..I m still studying na..
Maan laughed-No Mithhu you don’t have to work..You are my special partner.. You know.. I will only work on that.. you will only sign the papers.. so don’t worry and do your studies like you are doing it earlier.. Ok?
Geet-That means ..I m your boss?
Ram and Priya too were there..and both smiled to hear their daughter
Ram said-Lo .. abhi to paper bhi sign nahin kiye madam ne aur khud ko boss samajhne lagi..
Geet-Off course I m the boss papa .. That’s why I m not going to work there..hai na angel?
Maan-Yess Bosss.. and he saluted her as she was really his boss
And Geet giggled at this and kissed on angel’s face and then hugged him-Thank u angel for being there for me..
and Dadi entered with a bowl of carrot halwa..and Geet’s eyes sparkled with joy to see that she snatched the bowl from her hand and started to have that but stopped after reaching near her mouth.. Her eyes fell on angel who was looking at her with frown..
Geet smiled and brought that spoon full of halwa near his mouth.
.He with a smile took that spoon in his hand and fed her with his hand.
.and then it was Geet’s turn to feed her angel..
and soon the bowl was laying empty on the table. Both were having a contended smile on their faces after relishing that yummy carrot halwa (Red halwa in Geet’s words). Though Priya too made that halwa so many times but Geet always liked it more when dadi made that
After that Maan showed her the papers
First Maan signed the papers-Maan Singh Khurana
And then he asked Geet to sign beside his signature and Geet too signed there-Geet Malhotra..
And after signing those papers her eyes fell on the place where they both have signed..
She found her name near her angel’s name and she smiled seeing their names on one paper side by side..
Precap-One more karwa chauth..but this time Ria is here..Who will fast for Maan.. Geet or Ria or both?
Part-21
Geet now knew why her heart and body were reacting differently at each and every gestures of her angel..That realization of love has made Geet mature and sensible.Her now sensible mind taught her that she was not right by loving angel as he was already in love with Ria di.. So she was trying hard to hide her feelings.. but she knew too that she could not stop herself from loving angel as it was not in her hand.. Now she knew this too that her love for her angel wan not a new feeling .. she was loving him since she was young..But she knew one hard fact too that she was only a kid for her angel who was dependent on him for her every need and he too did everything for her with giving it a thought..Her every wish was being fulfilled by her angel..and for Geet that was more than enough .. Her angel loved her immensely and it did not matter to her that his feelings were not the same for her as she was having for him..For her, angel’s love was everything for her.. so she too could do something for him by not making him angry or feel bad about herself.. His smile mattered a lot for her like her smile mattered for angel… She was aware of the facts How and when angel lost his parents and how much she was precious for him.. She was also aware that she was the reason of every smile on his face so how could she be the reason of anger or sorrow of her angel…
Days were passing like that.. Time for marriage of Ria and Maan too was coming close.. about One month was left for their marriage..and It was Geet’s masoom Ishq for her angel that she did not feel bad even once for it because it was she who was in love with angel and angel was already in love with Ria.. so their love mattered a lot for her..
One day she heard her mother talking about Karwa chauth.. she heard her telling Dadi that KC was nearing and they should ask Ria if she wanted to fast for Maan or not.. They were not married yet so they decided to leave it on Ria if she wanted or not.. But the name of KC had a special place in Geet’s heart and this time she was in love with her angel so it was more special for her.. But her innocent mind started to ask question to itself.. Priya had told her that it was a right of a wife or of a would be wife too fast for her husband.. This time Ria was here so logically it was her right to fast for angel.. A debate started between mine and heart ..
Mind asked- Was that right for Geet to fast for angel this year?
And Geet’s heart replied-Why not? If she keeps fast then angel would get the prayers of two people for his long life..
Mind again said-and what if everyone knows about her fast this year as Maan is physically present here for the first time after she started to keep fast for him.. How would she handle?
Heart replied-she will do like she did every year with seeing his picture.. that ways she could hide her fast..
Mind- and what if Maan notices that she is not eating anything..It’s very tough this year for her as her friend too is not with her whare she used to go to spend the day.. She has shifted to her hostel in some other city..
Mind-It’s Love my dear mind.. everything is possible in love
Before mind could raise a question again. Geet shouted- Shut Up.. Don’t make me confused.. I will do what I want.. I don’t need your suggestions..and she stopped to think over it..
Next day all were in KM and were talking.. Ram asked maan -Maan I m sure this time you too will fast for Ria.. Am I right?
Maan- Why would I? This fast is for girls na..
Ram in dramatic style- Onceee upon a time it was used to be for girls only but this is modern age Maan Babu.. Boys too keep fast for the long life of their better halves.. After all we too need them with us if we are going to have a long life..What would we do with that long life without them?
Geet too was listening to them .. A smile crept on her face listening to her father and she waited for the reply of angel
Maan- that I will see after marriage.. Not now..and I think Ria too will not keep fast.. She is a modern and she may not have any belief in that..
Dadi-Okk.Let’s check it.. I m going to call Ria to ask if she wants to fast for you or not..
Ram-Yes.. and if she says Yes ..you too will fast .. arrey kuchh to seekho apne baap se.. I m fasting for my wife at this age too and you are denying it when everyone feels excited for KC.. Shame on you Maan.. Maan rolled his eyes at the antics of Ram and Geet busted in to the laughter
..and Maan tapped her head and kept his finger on her lips and said-Shhh Mithu..Chup Bilkul chup..
and Geet kept mum but his finger on her lips left a very pleasant effect on Geet. His touch was producing some tickling sensation in her body..She stared at him with love filled eyes butt she gave a sweet smile to him..
Dadi called Ria to ask if she was interested in fast or not.. and Ria found it as an opportunity to melt Maan’s heart for herself.. She without thinking accepted to keep fast..
Dadi-Thanks beta.. I will send sargi to you with some one .. you have to eat it very early in the morning of KC and after eating that sargi your fast will start and till the moon rises you have to live without having a drop of water.. Got it?
Ria-Ji Dadi.. I will..
And dadi put the phone down with a smirk on her face-Now what maan? She is going to keep fast for you..
Maan thought for a minute.. He was struck between his heart and mind.. Heart did not want to fast as he did not have any high emotional attachment with Ria.. but mind said if he said no then everyone would have a doubt and would start to pop their questions up.. So to save himself with those questions he too said Yes..
Geet smiled seeing Maan accepting to have fast… and today her trust that angel loves Ria di a lot deepened in her heart…
On the day before KC dadi personally wanted to give sargi to Ria.. But one of her old friend was having a function of her grand daughter in law’s Baby Shower ceremony and she had invited her and priya with lot of love and requests.. So they were in fix on what they would do ..both the houses were in the opposite directions so for dadi such a long travelling was not possible..
They were discussing it in front of Maan and Ram and Ram gave a suggestion- Me or Maan could go but we too have a very important meeting.. and in this case only Geet is left.. I think we can send Geet I know she is youngest in the family but still it’s better to sand her instead of any outsider..Ris’s house is in direction of her college so she can manage with that.. Maa.. Priya..you both can prepare the dishes you want to send and we will send them with driver to her college and she will give them to Ria…
And this suggestion was approved by all..
On the eve of KC Geet reached Ria’s house and she felt little scared while entering that house. She was remembering the incident which happened with her at that night… But she remembered her angel telling her not to be scared and now that Sahil was behind the bar so she was not going to face him..She found Ria’s father in the Hall and she greeted him.. She told her about the purpose of her arrival . He asked her to go to Ria’s room directly as she was there..
Geet was about to knock on the door of Ria’s room.. but stopped as she heard Ria talking to someone on Phone-Yes Definitely sir we are meeting tomorrow evening.. what would you like to have in snacks? Veg or nonveg?
.
Geet was surprised to hear that as next day was KC. she heard again Ria after few moments-Good to know that you like nonveg snacks? Me too like it .. so we will enjoy our Tea time as well as will final our deal there.. Bye see you tomorrow at ### Hotel.. Geet heard the name of the hotel and then she knocked at the door
Ria-Come in..
And Geet entered -Hi Ria di .. How are you?
Ria was not much pleased to see her there as she remembered Sahil seeing her here but without showing any displeasure she welcomed her0Hi Geet I m fine How are you.. Me too very fine di.. ye mamaa aur dadi ne sargi bheji hai aapke liye and they have said sorry for not coming .. They are invited On dadi’s friend’s house for some important function..
Ria-It’s ok Geet.. and she took the packets of gifts from her.. Dadi had already narrated her about that sargi..
Ria-Sit geet..
Geet-No Di I have to rush.. mamaa is going to apply the mehendi on her hands .. So I too will apply it on my hands..Di will you apply mahandi on your hands as you are not going to fast tomorrow..
Ria startled at it-You heard what I talked just now?
Geet nodded-Yes.. I came exactly at that time di and I m sorry for over hearing you
Ria-It’s ok Geet..
But now Ria needed some excuses to manipulate Geet as she knew that she was not that mature so it was easy to handle her She did not want to make a ill reputation in her would be in law’s eyes.She knew if she did not handle Geet, she will definitely tell at home .. So thinking for a while she said-Wo actually geet.. That client has come from Kanada and he is going to finalize a deal with us.. But he is adamant to meet me at that time only and to finalize the deal at teaonly.. II tried my best but he is not ready to listen..Now papa can’t wear to lose this deal.. It’s a big contract.. You are getting it na Geet? I know that I have said to dadi ma to fast but I m really helpless.. I m not able to understand what should I do..KC comes every year Geet.. I can fast for Maan next year but cant bring this deal back to my father.. Geet please I need your help..
Geet looked at her.. Ria too looked back and found Geet quite convinced-Geet I request you.. please don’t tell it at home.. sabko bura lagega and U don’t want to hurt anyone there.. I m feeling struck between my two homes..
Geet-But Di.. angel is fasting for you … If he knows he will feel bad..
Ria-Geet .. I beg of you.. please don’t tell Maan.. I don’t want to hurt him . After all I love him.. It’s just my duty towards my father which I can’t ignore.. I love Maan a lot and I don’t want him to know this.If he comes to know he will really feel heartbroken … This is our first KC as a couple. I don’t want to hurt him.. Please Geet.. help me to manage this year.. Do you want your angel to be sad ?
And Geet innocently shook her head..
Ria-Thank U Geet.. I m so grateful to you for helping me..
And after spending few minutes there Geet left..
She was lost in thought while returning home… She was recalling what Ria said to her and Geet never in her dreams could hurt her angel..Next day was his life’s very important day. He was goinfg to fast fpr Ria Di. She had to help Ria di.. she was feeling so helpless that time..
Geet reached home and dadi asked her -Geet.. you are back.. de diyana sab Ria ko?
Geet -Ji dadi de diya..
Dadi-Geet priya is sitting with that mehandi girl.. I know you too will apply mehandi like every year
Geet smiled and nodded..
Dadi -tum jaao main tumhaare lye kuchh lati hoon.. You must be feeling hungry.. and Geet went where priya was sitting.. Mehandi was almost done and she gave a smile to Geet- Geet aa ja beta tu bhi lagwa le.. I know you are not going to listen to me like every year.. So this Time I have decided to not to stop you from applying mahandi.. Come and sit in front of this girl..
While Geet was sitting in front of the mehandi girl and she was applying mehandi on her hand..Maan and Ram came and Maan saw her sitting in front of the girl-Mitthu why you are applying mehandi? You are not fasting tomorrow..
Geet looked at Maan and felt bad for him but asked-Why I can’t apply? I like it and I do it every year. Ask dadi or mamma..
Dadi- haan she is right Priya you remember when Maan was not here that time what Geet was demanding..
And Priya too remembered that Geet wanted to fast for Maan.. and she laughed remembering that with how much difficultu she had convinced her not to fast.. she was going to tell it to Maan Geet shouted loudely-Dadiii Mujeh bhookh lagi hai .. you did not bring any thing for me,… jaldi jaaiye na.. and she made a grumbling face and maan imedietly asked-You are feeling hungry? Me too feeling hungry.. Dadi mere liye bhi lana kuchh khaane ke liye..
And Geet thanked her stars that she made everyone stop for telling angel about her demand of keeping fast for him..
And servant reached there with some food and Maan fed Geet as they both were hungry and Geet’s hand which she used to eat was being applied with Mahandi..
Geet was looking at him while eating.. Maan saw her and asked-Mitthu what are you thinking? Has something happened ? and Geet shook her head saying No…Maan smiled looking at her and tapped her head- Then you just smile… you don’t look good without smile.. and How could Geet reject her angel’s demand … She gave a wide hearty grin to him which make Maan laugh-That’s my mitthu…
but inside of her heart she was really feeling bad foe her angel
Precap-Maan in the same Hotel at lunch time. Did Mithhu tell him about Ria?
Part-22
Servant reached there with some food and Maan fed Geet as they both were hungry and Geet’s hand which she used to eat was being applied with Mahandi..Geet was looking at him while eating.. Maan saw her and asked-Mitthu what are you thinking? Has something happened ? and Geet shook her head saying No…Maan smiled looking at her and tapped her head- to smile karo .. you don’t look good without smile.. and How could Geet reject her angel’s demand … She gave a wide hearty grin to him which make Maan laugh-That’s my mitthu…
Dadi-Maan You have to get up early tomorrow as Priya and Ram will be doing their first ritual of the day by eating sargi.. and you to need to do that.. as you will not be able to eat anything for the whole day until the moon appears..
Maan-Ok dadi,..
Geet- I too will wake up early ..Mujhe bhi dekhna hai..
Priya-What will you do so early.
Geet-No Mamma please I want to see that ritual please please please? Angel Please.. and she looked at Maan with so cute puppy eyes that he melted instantly-Okk Baba ..I wiil wake you up.. Theek hai..
Gett being excited-Thank U so much angel and she looked at Priya with some naughty smile and Priya shook her head seeing her.. She knew that Geet could easily make Maan agree for anything..and she said to Maan-Maan you are spoiling her..
Maan-It’s ok maan.. She will sleep again after seeing that rirual.. Mithhu you have college tomorrow?
Geet-Yes Angel..
Maan=Hmm. If you want to wake up early..Then you should sleep early too otherwise you will feel sleepy in college..
Geet-Ok.. I will sleep early but angel please don’t forget me to wake up in the morning..
Maan-Ok.. I wont..
And all settled comfortably after mehandi girl left.. chit chatted randomly and after having dinner they all dispersed for the night..
Priya asked Geet to remove mehandi before sleeping and to apply some oil so that mehandi is darkened till the morning.. And Geet followed Priya and after removing mehandi she went to sleep.. Today she was sleeping in Km only so that she would be able to wake up in the morning..
After reaching in to her room she took out her diary and from her bag and shared her feelings with it..and after filling her feeling in it’s page she closed it and again put safely in her bag,.and tried to sleep but her mind was still in some thoughts..and did not know when she slept..
In the morning she heard angel’s voice who was trying to make her awake..She opened her droopy eyes and said -Angel ..Please I m sleeping why you are waking me this early.?.
and Maan shook his head hearing her-Mitthu ..It’s morning and you only asked me to wake you up..and now you don’t want to wake up..
Geet-No I don’t said anything like this..
Maan-Ok.. phir mat bolna ki humne sargi kha li aur tumhen uthaya nahin and saying this he turned to go
And the word sargi made her jump in her bed”OH no .. How did I forget.OMG.. I m sorry angel.. I forgot that I had to wake up early.. please I m coming soon..
Maan smiled -Hmmm… Now go and get fresh.. all are waiting..
Geet-Ok angel only five minutes..aap jana nahin..
Maan-Okk ab jaao jaldi and Geet ran in to the bathroom and to Maan’s surprise she was back in ten minutes and he was more surprised to see that she had taken bath..
Maan-Mitthu .. Great .. you got ready so fast… did you take bath or just splashed water on your mouth..
Geet pouted looking at him-Angel… That was a bad joke.. You know how fast I did that? I will take bat again later
Maan-Ok don’t get angry ..Now let’s go..
And both reached down and found everyone ready for the ritual..
They all settled on the chairs around the dining table.. and Ram and priya fed each other with one spoon of kheer.. Geet was looking at her parents.. and she said-wow looking yummy.. Mamma mujhe bhi khani hai kheer..
Dadi-Okk Geet .. I m bringing for you too
And when Geet expressed any wish how could Maan denied and he said-Okk.. but why you are asking mittu . ..Ye lo khao.. No need dadi to bring another bowl for her..This is more than enough.. and he himself fed her with the first spoon of Kheer..
Geet opened her mouth and took that kheer in her mouth while looking at him…
Maan looked at her-What are you looking at Mitthu?
Geet shook her head and forwarded a spoon full of kheer towards him- Aap bi khaao mere haath se..and se smiled cutely looking at him .and he without thinking anything took that in his mouth..
Family did not find any thing strange as it was very natural for them to see those two children mingling with each other and nothing was new to them..
Maan-Now eat yourself whatever you want to..
Geet nodded and started to eat from the dish ..Geet was drinking water and suddenly Maan started to cough ..some piece of food stuck in his throat ..
All looked at him he was coughing badly Geet was sitting near Maan so priya said geet to gave water to him.. Geet who was drinking water forwarded her glass of water towards him and he while holding her hand drank the water..Maan calmed down after drinking water and they finished their food..
Dadi told everyone to sleep again as it was too early to do any work..
Maan -No dadi I have some work.. I have a meeting in the evening so I m thinking to finish my work early so that I m completely ready for it..
Ram-You are right maan.. I too will sit with you to see what better can we prepare for it..
Maan-Ok papa..
Geet was going to sleep again and Priya asked her-Geet what will you carry in your lunchbox for college?
Geet-Any thing mamma which is easy for you to cook..and she left to take sleep for few hrs..
After taking her sleep ..She came down after getting ready for her college and found Maan and Ram talking about the meeting.. Maan’s phone rang and he picked up the call.. and after hearing the matter on the other side he said-No .. I m not available at that time .. I m going to attend one important meeting in XYZ Hotel.. and hearing the name of the hotel Geet’s eyes widened with shock- Oh no.. it’s the same hotel where Ria di is having her meeting.. I should stop angel from going there.. What if he sees Ria di there ,,He will feel bad that she is not fasting today while e is fasting for her.and Ria di too will feel bad.. She doesn’t want anyone to know about it…It will be good if they don’t meet..
and she came near Maan-Angel..Your meeting is n XYZ Hotel?
Maan-yes.. what happened mitthu?
Geet-Kuchh nahin I have heard something bad about that hotel..wo last week my friend went there with her family and you know someone there found a cockroach in their food… What if it repeats again..What would your client think? I think you should keep your meeting some where else..
Ram-What rubbish geet,, no such incident happened .. I never heard about it n any news..
Geet-But Papa I m saying true..
Maan-Mitthu What aye you talking? Are you all right?
Dadi was looking at them as she too was there. She too said-Geet nothing like this happened..
Geet-But dadi my friend told me
Maan-Shut up mitthu…grow up.. Can’t you see the difference in truth and joke? I m sure your friend was joking ..
Geet-Hwww aapne shut up bola.. Mujhe? mitthu ko? And she made a grumpy face.. Mujhe aap se baat nahin karni..
Maan-Comeon Mitthu.don’r behave childish.. You are doing your graduation.. you think yourself..If such incident had happened there it’s not possible to hide that news.. chalo it’s time for your college.. jaao jaldi..
And Geet left from there stamping her feet..But Priya called her from back and handed her lunch box..She took that and left for the college
Geet was little worried about their meetings.. and she complained seeing up- Why did you set both the meetings at the same place.. Dilli me hotels ki kami hai kya..Par nahin aapko to maza aata ha logon ko pareshaan karne me..God please don’t bring them in front of each other.. It’s a request..please accept kar lo..Pleaseee..Angel ko bahut bura lagega..
And she reached college… Her mind was only on Ria and Angel.. She was not even to concentrate on her class… Her friends asked her to have her lunch but she gave her lunchbox to them saying that she had very heavy Breakfast so wasn’t feeling hungry..and her friends finished her lunch too..
After college she went to home and asked about maan and dadi told her that he had gone for his meeting…
Geet again prayed to God for listening her prayers .. Dadi asked her to eat something but she denied saying that they ate too much at college and wasn’t feeling hungry at all..
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
At Hotel Maan was in meeting while the clients were enjoying the coffee with snacks and when they saw Maan not having anything they asked him to have some but he politely refused them saying that he was on fast so couldn’t eat anything .. Clients understood and they continued to enjoy the snacks and coffee..
And after attending his meeting he was about to go but stopped to hear a familier sound.. He turned and found Ria there talking with some foreigners.. He understood that they were her clients as it was very common in business to keep meetings at such places..but something caught his eyes..
Ria was busy in talking with clients over the deal and she was having her tea and snacks with them.. She picked up a piece of snacks and put it in her mouth. While keeping that in mouth she looked up and her eyes fell on the person in front of her and her hand stopped at where it was..
Maan was standing there and was looking at her.. But he did not say a word to her and left from there.. .. Ria gulped her saliva and got scared and thought -How did he come here?
And her mind went on Geet-Did Geet tell him? I m sure that she only had told him. Otherwise hpw it is possible for Maan to be here?. Oh I was wrong about Geet… She in not as innocent as she looks.. She is definitely trying to create Mis understanding between us.. On no Ria.. Already maan is not to much interested in you and this Geet has taken bebnefit of it..you have to handle the situation.. and Geet I m not going to leave you today.. You have done your work and now see what I do.. Today I will show your family that you are trying to separate Maan from me.. But I will never let you be successful in that..
But she couldn’t go from there as the deal was about to be clicked.. She waited to papers to be signed..
Maan was in the car and he was lost in thoughts..He was not hurt emotionally but he was angry. He was angry on Ria for not telling the truth.. She lied to his family about fasting.. He was not the one who did not have any hope with Ria to keep fast.. He already had said to dadi that Ria was not going to fast but she said yes to dadi and this made Maan angry..His family was so happy to know about her fasting..
He reached home.. all were at home only.. Maan briefed to Ram about the meeting
Dadi-Maan You are here..Go get ready.. Ria wil be here in some time .. she will break her fast with your hand here only..
Maan wanted to tell the truth to dadi but he decided to keep mum as he did not want her and Priya to feel sad.. Priya was fasting so he did not want to hurt her..he went to his room and got ready..
After getting ready he came down and sat quietly at one side..
Geet saw him and came near him.. She wanted to check if he had seen Ria or not..
She too sat beside him quietly.. Maan wahen saw her quite and he found it quite strange
Maan-Mitthu Kya hua.. chup kyun ho?
Geet-Main abhi taka apse gussa hoon.. Aapne subah danta than a mujhe.. and she showeh him her angry and pouty face..
Maan smiled seeing her nautanki but thought to make her smile. He held his ears and said-Sorry Mitthu..
And she giggled seeing him in that position
Geet-Arrey ahy are you saying sorry.. I was just joking.. I m not angry..Ange ! How was your meeting?
Maan looked at geet- Hmm ..it was fine..
Geet-Angel Ria di is coming too.. It’s your first KC na,, are you not happy?
Maan again looked at her .. She was looking at him curiously. He thought his own feelings to keep a side
He smiled and said-why to be excited? subah se bhookha rahne me kya excitement?
Geet-haan You are right.. I know It’s really tough to stay hungry for the full day.
Maan – how do you know that it’s tough.. Tumne khana khaya hai na?
Geet”wo..wo .. Haan maine to khana khaya na..abhi to aapne bola na ki bhookha rahne me kya excitement..Mamma too ,loses all her energy while fasting..and papa he always looks at the sky to see if moon is there or not.. this shows na ki it’s tough to fast for whole day..
Geet did not get any clue if Maan saw Ria or not..He did not say a word to Mamaa or dadi about it .. wso she thought that He hadn’t seen her.. and she thanked God for listening her prayers..
she again said-Angel just ask Ria di about her time to come.
Priya came there and scolded Geet-Geet don’t irritate him.. He is hungry.. and you are troubling him..
Geet-Mamma I m not irritating him I m only asking him about Ria di.. He is sitting so quitely
Priya smiled-Hmm… He is waiting for her desperately that’s why he is not talking much..Let her come .. Phir dekhna khush ho jaayega..
Maan looked at his mother who was looking so happy for him..He became little sad thinking about what Ria did…
Geet looked at him and found him little sad and she believed that he was waiting for Ria So she thought to make her smile and became chirpy again-bas itni si baat hai.. I think I should do something for angel to make him smile. Chalo main joke sunaati hoon.. and she started to crack jokes.. Priya shook her head on the craziness of her daughter
At the beginning Maan was lost but later he started to smile on her jokes..Ram and Dadi too joined them and they started to crack jokes one by one..and soon the atmosphere became light and happy and they did not know how time passed.. Maan was laughing like hell as the joke completion was going on but his laughter stopped when he saw Ria standing there.He again remembered what she did.. Ria was looking at Geet .. Her face was serious.. Everyone looked at Ria ..
Priya-Ria .. aa gayi Maan kab se wait kar raha tha .. aao..
Geet-Hi Ria di.. How are you?
But Ria asked Geet-Why did you do that Geet?
Geet was confused-Maine kya kiya Ria di?
Everyone specially Maan was looking at Ria confused…
Precap-as obvious as you all thought.. maan and Geet breaking eachother’s fast.. though Maan is unaware of Mitthu’s fast
Part-23
Maan was laughing like hell as the joke completion was going on but his laughter stopped when he saw Ria standing there.He again remembered what she did.. Ria was looking at Geet .. Her face was serious.. Everyone looked at Ria ..
Priya-Ria .. aa gayi Maan kab se wait kar raha tha .. aao..
Geet-Hi Ria di.. How are you?
But Ria asked Geet-Why did you do that Geet?
Geet was confused-Maine kya kiya Ria di?
Everyone specially Maan was looking at Ria confused…
Geet-Di what happened?
Ria-Geet If you were not able to keep your promise then you should have told me na.. I could have told the truth to everyone yesterday itself.. Why did you do that.. Do you want to create my bad image infront of the family.. Geet I trusted you so shared my problem with you and you promised me but you did not keep your promise..
Her eyes became wet while saying all that..
Maanw as standing quietly .. He was trying to understand what was going there..Why she was saying that to Mitthu..
Geet was gaping at her Like dumb..
Priya-What happened Ria? What did Geet do?
Dadi-Yes Ria we are not getting it.. say clearly what you are trying to say..
Ria-Dadi .. wo. I m really sorry.. I could not fast today.. All were shocked to hear except Maan..
Dadi-But why Ria?why you did not tell us about it..We did not force you to fast,, I just asked you and you agreed.. we are not that orthodox Ria to think anything bad about you for not keeping fast..
Ria-I m sorry Dadi.. I did not want to hurt all of you.. I was scared.. It was my first festival after engagement..As I promised you I was all set for the fast but One of Papa’s client forced me to have tea with him to finalise the deal.. I tried to convince him but he was not ready.. What could I do Dadi.. at one side it was my duty for my father and the another side my duty towards my would be inlaws.. so could not have courage to tell the truth to all of you..But Geet knew it and she promised to help me and I trusted her.. But she sent Maan there and he watched me there having tea with the client. I thought that Geet would help me.But I was wrong… Maan is right she is a kid only. . she can’t understand the seriousness of the situation..I should have understood it at the first place
And that was enough for Maan he almost roared -Enough Ria.. You are blaming her without any reason..How can you be so sure that Mitthu told me about you? Don’t you think that you are hiding your own guilt by accusing her?
Geet now understood everything and she understood this too that why angel was sad..But what was her mistake? She tried her best to stop him from going there.. Core of her eyes burnt with the tears ..She saw Angel getting angry on Ria.After her so many efforts she could not help Ria. She gave a look to all.. they were busy in talking..
She became sad and silently turned from there and left to her room.. She did not want to show her own hurt to them as tension was already high in the atmosphere..
Priya-But Ria..Geet did not tell anything to us.
Dadi-Yes.. she even stopped Maan from going there.. That time we all thought that she was behaving very childish by giving some foolish reason for not going there..Even Maan scolded her too for her childish excuses.. But it’s very clear now that she was actually trying him not to go there because she did not want Maan to see you there..
She turned to see Geet-Geet am I right? But Geet was not there.. and she said-Ye Geet kahaan gayi?
All looked at the place where Geet was standing..she was not there..
And Now Ria understood that she had done some blunder..She has dug her own grave..
Maan – I never expected this from you Ria.. Why you always become a direct or indirect reason for Mitthu’s tears.. I m really sorry to say Ria..It is happening again and again.. and I m feeling bad to say that we have to think our relation one more time
He was caring and concerned for his family but for the outer world he was a man of few yet straight words..
Ram-Maan. What is this? Why you are over reacting? Don’t utter these words.. marriage is not such a shallow relation that it can be broken for such a small matter
Dadi-Ram is right Maan.. Itni chhoti chhoti baton se rishte nahin tootte hain..Don’t say it again.It’s not a joke
Maan without giving a look to Ria went as he knew where Mitthu could be..
Ria now knew that she had to do some extra work to win their heart again. Specially maan..Once she had got his little trust by choosing Maan over her brother but she was back to square one again..she saw Dadi scolding Maan when he said to rethink about themselves.. She witnessed family’s soft side for supporting her even after her this fault..
Ria-Dadi I m really very sorry.. I was so scared that I did not know that by hiding the truth I m going to hurt you all..(To Priya) I m really sorry aunty , I accused Geet without any reason.. I m really ashamed of myself..I should have asked her once before saying anything..Please maaf kar dijiye mujhe..( To Ram)-Uncle please.. I m really very sorry..
Though everyone was feeling bad for the turns of the day..but Ria’s tears made them forget their sadness.
Dadi-Ria.. I know that we all are feeling bad but I still say that you should not have done that.. Jhooth bolna solution nahin hai kisi baat ka..we all would have not felt bad if you had told us thisbut now it really sad to know..
Ria- Please dadi.. maaf kar dijiye.. Mujhse bahut badi galati ho gayi..If you all say I will say sorry to Geet too.. I know that I m wrong.. I hurt her ..I will have to say sorry to her and she turned to go but Dadi stopped her-No Ria..Not now.. Let Maan come down.. He will be more angry on you to see you there.. Here he will not be able to get much angry on you . and More over moon has appeared in the sky.. Let’s complete the puja.. and Now when we all know that you haven’s fasted today so you don’t need to do that.. Priya come you do your puja..
Ram said to Ria-Don’t worry Ria.. sab theek ho jaayega.. Maan hai na he will handle Geet.. and you don’t need to say sorry to Geet
And Ram and Priya did their puja and both broke eachother’s fast..and Ria was watching them standing behind Dadi.. She was cursing herrself for the turn of the events
>>>>>>>>>>>>
Geet was standing in her room’s balcony..
Her eyes were on the moon who was shining in the sky.. Her eyes were still moist.. She was not sure why she was crying.. For herself or for her angel and Ria..She looked in to the sky and said-Nahin Maani na aapne bhi meri baat.. How much I requested you to not bring them face to face But No.. Koi sunta hi nahin hai meri yahaan..no one took me seriously in the morning.and Now you too did the same ..You too did not take me seriously.. I fasted for the bell being of angel and what did you do? You make him angry and sad..itni si baat nahin Maan sakte the meri aap?What bad had happened with you if you hadn’t brought them face to face? And she looked angrily at the moon. .
She heard the voice of her angel-mitthu..She closed her eyes thinking about the sad face of her angel and turned.. she opened her eyes and found her angel in front of her..He came near her.. Geet looked at him and then lowered her eyes..Maan took her face in his palms and lifter a little.. Geet’s eyes were wet and she said to him-sorry Angel.. Are you angry on me for hiding that? I promised Ria di that I will not tell anyone..I m really sorry..
Maan looked at her and asked- You were stopping me for Ria in the morning?
Geet nodded- she asked me to help her.. She did not want to hurt anyone ..Neither her father nor us.. I promised her to help..Bur kya fayda… aap ne dekh hi liya unko.. aur sab gadbad to ho hi gaya na..
Maan-But she should not behave that rudely with you without knowing anything..
Geet wiped her tears-I think anyone at her place would have reacted the same.. She did not expect you there.. and when you saw her she thought that I had told you.. Ab isme unki itni badi galati bhi nahin hai..
Maan- Mitthu you are growing up and becoming mature..
Geet said looking at him-bas aap ko hi bachchhi nazar aati hoon..otherwise I m a grown up girl.
Maan smiled hearing her and said-Mitthu.. I m sorry
Geet-Why you are saying sorry now? She was little confused..
Maan-subah tum par gussa kiya tha na..
Geet-But you had already said sorry for that..
Maan-No.. That time I didn’tt know the truth ..so I m really sorry that I scolded you like that..
Geet-Hmmm.. and she crossed her arms on her chest-uske baare me soch kar bataaungi.. itni jaldi maafi nahin milegi..and she smiled.. Maan felt relieved seeing her smiling.. He kissed on her forehead and hugged her-Take whatever time you want.. I can wait for my whole life for your forgiveness..
Geet felt some peace at her heart seeing Angel not angry on her for hiding that truth.. She closed her eyes and suddenly she remembered that this time she did not need to see angel’s pic after watching moon..She watched her angel like her mamma sees her father after watching moon ..and this thought made her beamed with happiness..
Maan -Mitthu let’s go down..
Geet-Angel I will come later .. I don’t want Make Ria di feel more guilty in front of me..she must be feeling so bad in front of all… And the name of Ria made Maan again angryI don’t care for her… And he left saying-As you wish Mitthu ..but come soon .. it’s time for dinner..
Geet-Ok.. I m coming..
Maan reached down stairs and looked at Ria with an angry glare..
Ram-Maan.. Forget everything beta.. She is really feeling bad for whatever she did..
Priya-Haan Maan.. galati ho gayi uss se.. ab itna bhi gussa theek nahin hai..
Ria- No Aunty I deserve his anger.. Maan I know I did very wrong.. I want to say sorry to Geet..
Maan-No way.. you are not going near her..
Ria-Maan Please let me go once..I will not be at peace till I ask for her forgiveness.. everyone has forgiven me but I need Geet’s forgiveness. after all it’s she whom I hurt directly..
Maan was going to shout but dadi interrupted-Maan what is this? She is saying sorry na.. She needs one chance.. after all she is going to be the part of this family.. and she has not done any crime by that.. she was at fault and she has accepted it..
Dadi literally scolded him and he did not say a word after that.. Ria went to meet Geet..
Maan -I will come too..
Ria-No Maan please.. I promise I will not say anything to her.. just will say sorry to her and come back. Please let me go alone..
Priya-It’s ok Ria.. tum jaao Maan kuchh nahin kahega ab..
And Ria left to meet Geet..
Maan glared at his family and they all gave him a sweet smile.
Ram gave a side hug to him.-Come on Maan.. itna gussa theek nahin hai.. galati ho gayi uss se.. mafi Maang rahi hai na..
and Maan left from there shaking his head..Priya called him -Maan Have your dinner you are on fast since morning..
Maan- Not now Maa.. let Mitthu come down..we all will have dinner together..
>>>>>>>>>>>>>
Geet in her room talking to the photo of Maan-You know angel.. I m very happy today.. I saw you standing in front of my eyes today ..I m really feeling lucky..I love you Angel…saying this she put moved her fingers on Maan’s photo on the wall and turned
And Ria’s eyes got wider to hear Geet saying I love you to Maan’s photo..She could not believe her ears if she heard right or not.. though Geet did not say it very clear but Ria guessed that she too was having fast for Maan…she turned back before Geet could see her and she stood aside of the door. She wanted to believe whatever she heard few moments back -Is Geet fasting today?and that too for Maan?
Her anger grew 10 times more on Geet for loving Maan as she knew that this will be another hurdle between Maan and her.. She was again and again getting defeat from Geet and most important was that Geet was doing nothing to defeat her.. her every card was proving wrong on her.
.and then her mind sensed something- But I think no one knows it as they did not say a word about Geet’s fasting when she blamed her..Geet loves Maan still she supported her and tried to stop Maan from going to the Hotel.. Is she ready to sacrifice her love for Maan as everyone thinks that me and Maan love each other..No Ria.. You have to think on this..till now there was one problem that Maan does not love you but this one is a bigger problem.. If some one knows about Geet’s love.. This family is very emotional and support eachother too.. who knows that they convince Maan to get married to Geet as they both are so fond of each other.. Ria… first solve your first issue you are here to say sorry to Geet and it’s only Geet who can convince Maan for anything.. She can even make Maan to forget his anger on me…I will have to think over geet’s love for Maan later.. I can’t lose this easily to her,..
Se controlled her anger and knocked at the door.. Geet looked in to that direction and said-Ria Di aap? Aaiye..(She was unawre of the fact that Ria had seen her talking to Maan’s poto)
Ria entered her room though she was burning with anger but she made a puppy face and said-Geet I want to say sorry to you for whatever I did..
Geet-It’s ok Di.. I understand ..
Ria-But I m feeling really bad for that.. I should have asked you first before saying anything.. Though everyone has forgiven me but I need your forgiveness Because I know Maan will not forgive me if you don’t forgive me.. So please forgive me..
Geet-Di I m not angry on you.. so forget it..
Ria-But geet Maan is angry on me..
Geet- chill Di.. iot’s not a big deal for me to make him agree to forgive you.. Leave it on me..
Ria- I know Geet you will handle it.. Thank U so much and saying this she hugged geet.. though she wanted to crush her in that hug with her anger.. but she could not do that.. She had to think over this problem later .. Right now it was must for her to convince Maan to forgive her and Only Geet could do that.. For her Maan was a battle of her prestige whom she wanted to win by defeating Geet…
Precap-Maaneet feeding each other in front of Ria.
Part-24
Geet Came down with Ria.. Ria once again said sorry to Maan but Maan did not say a word. He gave a look to her and said to her- Let’s have dinner..
Geet saw that and knew that he was really angry on Ria so she said-Mujhe nahin khana hai
All looked at her..
Priya- kyun?
Geet Because I m angry on Angel.. and she looked at Maan with a raised eyebrow..like she was up to something
Maan-Now what I did?
Geet-You did not forgive Ria di…Till you don’t forgive Ria di I too won’t forgive you for the morning nor will have my dinner
Maan shook his head on Mitthu’s stubbornness and said-Ok ..I forgave her..Now let’s have dinner..
Geet-I don’t believe you that you have forgiven her..
Maan-Come on Mitthu .. How can I make you believe you that I forgave her?
Ria was boiling from inside seeing them talking so comfortably but she stood calm as it was the need of the moment.. At moment the forgiveness of Maan was must needed thing..
Geet-If you have forgiven Ria di then make me believe and do what I say
Maan-Ok if by doing so you can believe me than I m ready to do what you say..
Geet smirked naughtily and picked up a ladoo from the thali of puja-You have to eat this to make me believe.. A naughty smirk was playing on her lips. She knew that she only can reduce Angel’s anger on Ria She thought that he was angry on Ria because she accused her so it was her duty now to solve everything between them… After all she had promised Ria that she will convince Angel to forget everything..
Maan’s eyes got wider with shock seeing that ladoo.. he hated those laddoos.. He only liked Carrot halwa in the name of sweets..
Maan-No way.. I won’t eat that..You know I hate this
Geet-That’s why I want you to eat this..
Maan-Give something else.. I will like to eat that halwa..
Geet -No.. you will have to eat only this If you refuge to eat that means you haven’t forgiven Ria di and if it is then I m not going to have dinner..waise maine aaj lunch bhi nahin kiya… and she patted her tummy as if she was very hungry..
Every one got concerned-Kyun nahin kiya?
And Geet realized what she had done in order to convince Ange.she had blurted out the truth but she handled smartly .. She had the experience of three years to ditch her family on the day of KC”Wo I gave my lunch to my friends.. because I was not feeling hungry that time and her lunch fell on the floor..
Dadi-you refused to have anything when you were back..
Geet-Haan to kya hua? tab bhi bhookh nahin thi .. but ab badi zor se lag rahi hai..Angel please jaldi kkhaaiye na..
Ria was so shocked to see Geet lying about her fast .. Now Ria knew the truth , she was connecting everything to the Fast of Geet.
And Maan opened his mouth.. his face that time was worth watching.. everyone was having a smile at face as they knew the hatred of Maan for sweets..He wanted to just taste that laddoo but Geet was the one who knew him upside down..she smartly shoved that laddoo in his mouth and said-Dare to spit it..You have to finish it..if you want me to believe you
Maan any how finished that laddoo..
Geet giggled to see him and said-Ria Di I m sure now that angel is not angry on you.. Come let’s have dinner But Maabn’s voice stopped her-No not so soon Mitthu
Geet-Kyun?Kya hua angel ?
Maan-Are you sure that you believe me that I m not angry on ria..
Geet-Haan, ..
Maan-But how can I believe that you believe me that I m not angry on her?
Now everyone including Ria was confused at Maan’s twisted words
Ram-Maan what do you want to say ?
Maan-Papa she made me eat that laddoo to make her believe that I forgave Ria.. Now I want to make her eat too so that I can believe that she is sure that I m not angry on Ria..
Geet-Oho.. wo baat.. Okk I m ready.. Mujhe to saari sweets pasand hai which are kept here..I m ready
Maan smirked-Who said that Im going to make you eat sweets mitthu?
Geet-To phir? Only dinner is here other than sweets..
Maan-I want you to eat this.. and he picked up a long dark colored green chilli..
Geet-What? Chillii… You know na angel that I can’t eat that.. I start to hiccup after eating chilies
Maan-Hmm I too hate that laddoo but you forced me to eat..
Geet gulped her saliva
Maan-waise Spicy golgappe to bade maze se khaati ho.That time you don’t feel chilies. Now you will have to eat this only warna I wont have my dinner .. soch lo I haven’t eaten since morning..
Geet was trapped now..
If she denies than angel is not going to have his dinner and Geet could not see that .. He was playing the same trick on her..
Unwillingly she opened her mouth.. Maan brought his hand near her mouth with chili in his hand and she closed her eyes as she knew that how much burns she was going to have in her mouth..
Maan put that chili in her mouth and said -Mitthu your time starts now… and Geet closed her mouth and started to chew the chilii but in spite of chilli she felt the taste of carrot halwa in her mouth.. She opened her eyes and looked at he angel.. he was smiling at her.. she looked at all and found everyone smiling..Ria’s condition was worst seeing them. She knew that they both had break each other’s fast today..But She had no other option other than smiling like others tough her smile was forced..
Geet was so touched with his this gesture that he did not feed her with chilli.. She hugged him with joy-Thank U angel.. I thought that today I was going to have that chilli..
Maan-Hmm.. You know me well Mitthu.. I can’t do that even in my dream.. let’s have dinner.. Ria come and have your dinner..
Ria-Thanks Maan for forgiving me..But Maan did not say a word
And all sat to have dinner..
Priya- Geet how much you trouble Maan? You know na that he doesn’t eat any sweets other than halwa.. Still you forced him to eat laddoo..
Geet-Oho Mamma.. Angel was so angry on Ria di.. so I thought that idea.. Angel still if I see that you haven’t forgiven her .. I will make you eat that ladoo again..
Maan-NOOO.. maine sach me maaf kar diya..
Geet- See . my trick worked na.. Ria di Now be happy and have your dinner .. Angel is no more angry with you
And everyone started the dinner in a happy mood,, It was only Ria who was tensed and her mind had started to think in that side..For her It became more challenging and tough to get Maan for herself.. Maan’s attitude hadn’t changed towards her.. He was marrying her but was not in love,, She was a best match for him..and that’s why he was marrying her..She was not expecting love from him as she too had the same feeling for him.. She too found her the best bachelor who could be the dream of any girl..His affection and Love towards Geet was now troubling her as she knew now that Geet was in love with Maan though she was hiding it knowing that he was going to marry Ria..and this was enough to increase her insecurity ..
Afetr dinner was done Ria took leave from all.. She again said sorry to all specially to Maan..
Maan wanted to ignore but the the frowning look of Mitthu forced him to smile at Ria. And He said-It’s ok Ria,.. But I hope you will not do anything like this..
Ria-I promise.. and she hugged Geet too-Thanks Geet .. You are so sweet..
Geet-welcome di.. If there is some issue between you and angel then tell me.. I know how to deal with him,.. and she winked at her..
And Maan taped on her head-stop it Mitthu..
And Ria after touching the feet of the elders left for her home.. But her heart was now more fearing for her defeat.. But she was awoman with strong will power .. she was not ready to accept her defeat in front of Geet as she was neither so mature nor so intelligent like her…
Time for marriage was coming closer and Ria’s insecurities were increasing..Can she live with Geet being around Maan everytime.. Geet’s age was not of marriage so she was going to live with them for quite a long time..She cpuld see herself far behind of Geet when it comes to Maan.. But still she was not ready to leave Maan..The best thing which was in her favor was that Maan did not think about Geet in the way Geet was thinking about him..
Days were passing and she was not getting any idea to keep Geet away from Maan..She was thinking hersdelf to be a bride who was not going to feel happy for her marriage .. Instead of feeling happy she was getting more and more scared..
One such day she was engrossed in her thoughts and in the evening she got a call from her friend -Hi Shane.. After so long,,…
After hearing her friend from the other side-Wow Shane That will be great to have you here.. Off course I will help you.. I will take you to Maan’s family they celebrate everything so traditionally… you know I don’t have my mom so can’s help you.. but you will get good help from Maan;’s family .. I will be waiting for you come soon…
And Ria thought for a while about her friend and suddenly her eyes starts to blink with shine..
Ria-That will be a great idea.. what if it happens.. I will have a great win over Geet.. After that I too will not have any problem with Geet being around of Maan.
and she raised her invisible callar-Ria you are too great… I know Geet hadn’t tell anyone about her love for Maan and everyone thinks that me and maan are in love,.. I know that Maan doesn’t love me at this time but he has promised to fulfill his all duties towards me honestly and in this matter I trust Maan,but can’t trust Geet now..so I have to try this on Maan and Geet to make myself safe and secure.. Hope I get my wish fulfilled.. But who would help me in this trick? ..Shane will be a great help but I can’t tell her the truth.. She too thinks that me and Maan are in love. I need some one in Maan’s family to fulfill my wish.. I think Priya Aunty will be a great help after all she is a mother of a girl..whom they have to marry one day.. So she will definitely think on that line I m havinf the advantage that Maan does not know any thing and his family too can’t even imagine it in their dream that Geet loves Maan.. I m not going to leave Maan at any cost.. Now it’s my last wish to get him as my Husband..and I will do anything for that..
And the idea boosted Ria’s self confidence..In her blind ego she forgot the outcome of that step..
Precap-One unexpected twist.. Ria turns in to a devil
Part-25
Ria received her friend at the airport . Bith hugged each other
Ria- hello shane( Friends,… shane is my friend on FB.. One day she said to me that she wanted to beat this Ria.. She is such a mean girl .. And her this wish gave me the idea to introduce her as Ria’s friend.. She is from Malaysia and never have been to India though she is Indian. Ria is going to use her as her weapon against Geet without telling her . shane! Welcome to MI znd be prepared to be cursed by everyone)
Shane- Hi Ria. Seeing you after long time.. How are you? Ria – I m just perfect
Shane- obviously you must be feeling perfect.. After all you are going to be married to Maan.. Your long time passion.
Hearing Maan’s name Ria felt some disappointment but said nothing
She took her with her and reached home.
They talked little while sipping tea.
Shane- Ria I m really feeling good to be here in India for the very first time. It was my long wish to visit India. I m doing a project on Indian festivals and culture. I could do this through Google too but I wanted to do it personally so that I could know better about the culture of this country my ancestors belonged to
Ria- of course Shane that why i told you to come here. You know Maan’s family is very cultured and traditional though they are quite modern.
Shane- That’s too good to know. You are very lucky ria . you are going to join such a family which is a big name in country and Maan is such a handsome man.
Ria thought in her mind- I wish if i could tell you what’s going in my life..
They finished their tea and their talks.
Next day was Diwali.. Ria and her father were invited in km as Sahil was in jail and they were not celebrating the festival. They were just doing the formalities of the festival..
After doing puja at their home they went to KM with Shane..
Maan’s family welcomed them and Maan was surprised to see Shane there-Hello Shane and he shook hands with her.. It’s surprise to see you here.. How are you?
Shane smiled -Hi Maan ..How are you? Firstly congrats to you and Ria for tying the Knot.. Ria was always very much impressed with you in college. I m happy that she got what she wanted.She always used to praise you..
Maan smiled a little at this without givig much attention to this sentence-Thanks Shane. Come in and feel at home. And He introduced shane to his family- This is shane she was with me and Ria in London college and shane this is my family. Dadi Papa Maa..
and all heard a sweet voice-Haww you left me alone.. Am I not your family Angel?
And all smiled at that and Maan took Geet near him and introduced geet to Shane-And She is the most valuable member of our family…Mitthu.and Mitthu this is shane Ria’s friend and our batch mate.
Geet- Hi Di.. How are you?
Shane-I m fine Mithhu.. How are you?
And as expected Geet said-Geet.- I m Geet Shane di.. I m Mitthu only for the Angel.and for all I m only Geet
Shane-Angel?
Geet-Haan Your batch mate is my Angel and she held Maan’s arms giving a big smile to Shane and in return Shane too smiled-Oh sorry Geet.. so what do you do?
Geet-Di I m doing B-arch from IIT Delhi..
Shane-Wow that so cool..
And once again Ria felt bad for seeing herself neglected between them.. She wore a beautiful dress to impress Maan and family but no one noticed that..
So she tried to make a space for herself among them and said to dadi-Dadi.she is here to know about the festivals and culture of India..as she never have been to India before.. Today is Diwali so I thought to bring her here as you all celebrate festivals in a traditional ways..
Dadi-Off course beta.. welcome to India ..Let’s do Puja first
All did Puja
After Puja Ram said to Ria’s father- Now let these ladies chal alone we will enjoy our company there .. what will do among these ladies?… every one smiled at this and both left from there Maan too was going to leave but he heard Geet asking Ria and Shane-Di let’s go.. I have so many crackers .. Let’s burst them.. \
Shane -No way Geet.. I never have done this so please spare me and Geet looked at Ria. But Ria said-Sorry Geet I don’t like these childish acts.. You go and enjoy I will sit with Shane..
Geet with some disappointment-Ok di as you wish .. I will go alone and she turned to go but stopped hearing Maan-Mitthu don’t.. you will not do that alone.
Geet-Kyua angel..I m not a kid.. I can do myself
Maan- Mitthu I said no that means No.. samjhi tum? Saying this he gave her a strict glare
And Geet pouted at this-Then how will I burst those crackers?
Maan-I m coming with you..
Geet -sachhi?
And maan nodded in acceptance with a smile seeing Geet behaving so kiddish
Geet-Thank u angel …and she beamed with joy..Maan and Geet left from there excusing themselves and Ria cursed herself for saying that to Geet.. Now she could not go with Maan as she had already called cracker bursting a childish act..
And She sat with shane as priya and Dadi were busy in receiving other guests.. Ria looked at Maan and Geet.
Two were enjoying the crackers.. She could see Geet hugging Maan whenever he bursted a high volumed cracker.
.and she could also see Maan laughing at the plight of Geet..
Ria was literally fuming on the view..
she for some time watched them but she was disturbed by Shane-Wow Ria.. Diwali is a grand festival, full of lights … this is so beautiful.. the decoration and these diyas are so beautiful.They are giving a heavenly view to my eyes..what other rituals are done on Diwali?
Ria now thought to implement her plan as this was the perfect time as Shane asked about the festival .
She said to shane-Yes shane there are so many festivals related to diwali.. You know on the third day of diwali we celebrate Bhai dooj.. at this day sister put a tilak on bro’s forehead and wish for his long life and in return bro gives lot of gifts to sister.. you know I don’t have my mother so never did that traditionally.. You can ask Priya aunty I think they must be celebrating this and she looked at Maan and Geet .. and Shane under stood that she was talking about Maan and Geet.. As shane was unaware of the thoughts of Ria so she became happy for getting the idea and she thanked Ria.. she waited Priye to be free. So that she could ask her about Bhai dooj
After some time Priya got some time and she came near Ria nad Shane..
Shane -Aunty please tell me that how you celebrate this festival and I tell me about all the related festivals to Diwali..
Priya smiled and started to talk to Shane and Ria smartly excused herself-Excuse me aunty.. I will be back soon let me see if dadi needs some help
And Priya smiled at this and said-Thanks Ria.. You are so sweet.. and Ria left petting herself mentally..
Priya told Shane-Shane today is diwali and you just saw how wee celebrate it.. Tomorrow will be the Gowardhan Pooja we domit by using cow dung as cow is very auspicious to be worshiped and on the next say bhaidooj is celebrated between brother and sister
Shane – that’s very good aunty I m sure in your family bhai dooj must be celebrating very lavishly
Priya was confused -why do you think so?..
Shane-Aunty Maan and Geet are your kids so it’s very obvious that they must be celebrating this festival.. I have seen them how they care for each other..
And Priya was stunned at this and she said -No shane we don’t celebrate this festival
Shane-But Why? Are they not sibling? If not then what is their relation? Is Maan not your son..
Priya looked at Maan and Geet who were still busy in their enjoyment and said to Shane-He is my son Shane but the difference is that I have not given him birth .. he is my bestest friend’s son who passed away long ago . Since then Maan is my son..
Shane-Oh.I m sorry aunty. Then what is their relation? I mean they look so close to each other..anybody can see their love and concern for each other.. They are not siblings.. Ria is in Maan’s life so the love factors too is not here.. They don’t look like friends too as Maan treats her like a kid.
Priya looked at Shane .. She was trying to absorb whatever Shane was saying.. they never thought in that way..when Geet was born Priya once asked to savitriji to celebrate rakshabandhan as Geet was there so she could tie a rakhi to Maan but that time dadi denied saying that they were not sibling..Let them grow and decide their relation.. and she agreed without any question but Shane shook her from inside..
Just then Ria approached them she could tell that her arrow hit at the right spot.. priya was sitting lost..
She asked -Kya hua aunty? What happened Shane?
Shane-Nothing Ria.. I just asked about Maan and Geet celebrating bhaidooj so aunty told me that they don’t celebrate it as they are not siblings.. I was asking her anout their realtion .. Nothing else..they look very close
Ria-Oh come on Shane. Is it necessary to name a relation? How does it matter? Look at me.. I see everyday Geet and Maan together.. But I don’t care about that.. I know that Maan loves me and I love him . This is enough for me..aur dunia ka kya hai wo to baaten banaati hi rahti hai why should we care for that /.. In the similar way the would be groom of Geet will understand their relation too.Their relation is pure nothing is there which should be objected.. saying this she looked at Priya who was still not saying a word.. Ria smiled inwardly.. Her aim was fulfilled.
She again said to Priya- I m sorry Aunty I did not know that you don’t celebrate these festivals otherwise I could have told shane about this in advance.. I m really sorry..
Shane too said sorry to priya for disturbing her..But priya left from there without uttering a word..
Shane was little worried about Priya. And she asked Ria-Ria why did you tell me to ask aunty about this.. See how disturbed she is..Shane was really feeling bad about her for asking that question
Ria-I m really sorry shane .. I too was unaware of this .. I did not know that they were not like siblings,.. I have seen them very close so I could only think of that relation.. I never talked Maan about it so did not know a bit about this..
Ria had taken the full advantage of absence of Maan.. Priya was a mother of a girl who could not see her daughter being pointed out like this… after some time Geet and Maan came there..
all were sitting together.. Geet sat with her mother and said-Mamma you know we had so many crackers.. really I enjoyed a lot after so many years.. Angel was here this time so we enjoyed the crackers .. otherwise you never allowed me to burst crackers alone..Thanks to angel that I could enjoy this year..Ria di I must say you missed the fun.. you should had to be there..
Everyone other than Priya and shane smiled as Priya was thinking about what shane said and shane was feeling bad that she made priya sad..But she now witnessed the purity of the relation of Maan and Geet.. the way Geet was dependent on Maan and the way Maan cared for everything related to her.. and while chit chatting talks came on Geet’s Birthday and Geet excitedly told Shane-Di you know me and Angel share our birthday.. I was born as a gift from badi mamma and bade papa.. because they left him on his birthday and on the same day I was born. So basically I m his bithday gift and i m spared to give his bithdyay gifts as I myself is a gift for him
All eyes became wet hearing Geet.. Seeing all eyes wet Geet stopped and her eyes fell on her angel..He was shading the tears remembering his parents.He still held himself responsible for their demise. Geet reached near him in the next moment and wiped his tears- I sorry angel..I made you cried.. I was so excited that I told that to shane di.. I m really sorry please don’t cry.. Mujhe bhi rona aa raha hai ab aap ko dekh kar and seeing her about to cry Maan instantly consoled her-No Mittu I m not crying.. see and he wiped his tears and gave a smile to Geet
Geet-Are you sure? You are not crying?
Maan -Nahin baba I m not.. don’t worry
and saying that he pecked on her forehead .. Geet genuinely smiled broadly and everyone reacted in the same way.. Atmosphere which was heavy few moments earlier was again normal..and in that moment Shane realized that there are some relations which don’t need a name.. they are so pure and heavenly that can make anyone feel proud of themselves..
Precap-Outcome of the question of Shane..
Part-26
After seeding the poison in priya’s mind using shane, Ria with her father and Shane returned..
On the way Shane talked to Ria- Ria I m really feeling bad yaar for asking that to Priya aunty.
Ria’s father-What happened Shane?
Shane-Uncle actually..
But Ria cut her-Nothing dad.. it was just a small curiosity of shane.. nothing else..
After they reached home Ria and shane went to Ria’s room..they were sharing the room as they were good friend and Shane wanted to spend time with her friends.. Next day she was leaving to meet her relatives in Punjab..
Shane-Ria..Man and Geet are really very close..In fact I saw Maan taking good care of her .. How lucky she is to have maan with her.. their bond is awesome.. I mean it’s very natural..What a coincidence Geet was born on the same day at which maan’s parents died.;. She is really an angel for him who did not even give time to Maan to cry more over his loss.. His loss was somehow was replaced with Geet’s arrival..Don’t you think it’s heavenly connection between them? ..
Ria who was already was fed up with Maan and Geet’s relation started to boil with anger at Shane but she could not show her anger as her main aim was still to be fulfilled..
She said with a smile to Shane-I know Shane.. Now I m going to be the part of that family.. so understand them well ..they both are really a boon for each other..
Shane-You are so lucky Ria that you are going to have such family who is tied in a serene relation with each other.. Blood relation is not there but they all are more close than any blood relation..
Ria-yess Shane I m really very lucy to have such family saying this she felt some bitterness in her own voice..
And after talking for some more time they slept..
>>>>>>>>>>>
Priya after her talks with Shane was lost in her thoughts.. she was not able to digest those words_ Can anyone else too think like that? If yes then that will not be good for Geet.. After all she was a girl and had to marry someone else one day. For her Ria was a sensible and understanding girl who never raised a question on their relation but what about other people?. priya knew that Maan and Geet were so much close to each other for some reasons.. Geet was his only reason to smile when his parents died.. and Priya herself was happy to see him smiling..as he was a kid who had lost everything at such a tender age.. No one in this world could separate Maan and geet . But it was the truth too that world needs a name of every relation which are close..
She could not apart Maan and Geet but at least she could give a name to their relation..On the first raksha bandhan after Geet was born Priya wanted to make geet tie the rakhi onm Maan’s hand but Savitri ji did not allow saying that they were not siblings.. She also said that it was not necessary to have only one relation between two kids who were gong to be grown up together..(She knew that Maan’s mother wanted Geet to be ter DIL..So she did not want to ruin that dream of her diseased DIL) And Priya that time did not say a word to Savitriji and accepted her decision..But now the questions were being raised..Today Shane did tomorrow someone else too could raise..
She kept thinking on her decision …
The Day of Bhai dooj..
Maan was ready to go to office.. Priya entered with Ram and Geet .. and she went straight to the kitchen..
Geet wished a cheerful good morning to Dadi and angel.. and after that father daughter sat to have BF
Geet-Dadi what’s in BF today?
..
And she saw her fav red halwa-Wow halwa..Dadi you are really sweet .and she kissed hard on dadi’s cheeks… How did you know that I wanted to eat this today.. she filled a spoon with halwa and put it in her mouth-Yummy Dadi..you made world’s best halwa even mamma can’t make such a yummy halwa..
And then she again filled the spoon with halwa and fed ti to Maan-taste it angel this is too yummy..and Maan took that happily-Yehh right Mitthu..this is very yummy..
Dadi-where is Priya? What she is doing in the kitchen..BF is already made..and she asked the servant to call Priya.. Servant went to call her.. and few minutes later Priya came with a thali in her hand.. it was having the tings related to puja..
Savitri ji looked at her and asked-Priya what’s this? Are you going to do puja at this time..
Priya put the thali on the table-No maa.. I m not going to do puja..Today is bhai dooj ..
All were confused..
Dadi-Bhai dooj? But we don’t celebrate na..
Priya-Yess you are right maa .. we did not celebrate but we will celebrate today..
Dadi-But who will celebrate? No one is bro and sis here..
Priya-Maan and Geet will celebrate it..
And her this sentence fell like a bomb on Geet..the spoon which was filled with halwa fell off her hand in he plate.. She looked at Priya with horrifying looks.
Maan was no less than Geet though reason was not the same
Maan -but why now.. we never did it..what happened?
Ram and Dadi were equally surprised or we can say shocked at Priya’s behavior..
She did not say anything about it earlier and suddenly she was saying like that..
Priya-Nothing happened Maan.. It’s just I thought to give a name to your relation with Geet..
Geet-Mamma.. but why? She could not ask further.. Her voice was shivering.. earth was slipping under her feet.. She could feel core of her eyes burning with tears..
Dadi-Priya why do we need of this? They are fine like they are..don’t try to change theoir relation..
Priya-Maa I asked you when Geet was born tuu you stopped me and I too agreed with you.. But maa it’s high time.. Question are being raised on them.. It’s the right time that we should gave a name to their relation.. Geet is grown up now..
Maan-What are you saying ? Did any one say something ? Tell me the name?
Maan looked at geet .. She was sitting there silently.. Tears were in her eyes she was so much incapable to react on the situation..
Maan-Maa why some unknown person matters you this much that you are going to give a name to our relation.? Why you are spoiling Mitthu’s innocent mind? Look at her.. She is so much hurt.. and Not only Mitthu I too don’t want to follow you.. I don’t find any thing wrong..we are family and are like that from the beginning..
Priya-Right Maan we are family ..I m your mother .. she pointed at Dadi-She is your Grand mother.. ram is your Father .. and Geet ? Who is she for you? Can you tell me? Only Mitthu? Mitthu and angel is not the name of any relation..
Ram-priya what nonsense you are talking Priya.. who has filled your mind with this poison?
Dadi-Ram is right Priya …I don’t think that they need to do that..
Priya-I don’t want to name the person but question have started to raise..
Maan-Maa logon ka kya hai they come and talk without thinking.. after two days they seek another reason to raise questions. How many times we will change ourselves for those people who do not exist for us..
Priya- Maan why are you arguing with me on such a small topic..what more I want? I want only to give a name to their relation.. Am I asking some thing impossible? I m a mother of a girl Ram.I m worried for her future.I m not saying anything bad about their relation.. Just want to tie them in a relation ..
Geet was sitting their dumb.. She was a kid for all of them.. so she had to follow what elders have decided.. She even cannot tell them the truth .. that she loved her angel as she was wrong for doing so..
Priya-Maa.. I followed you that time but now I m too worried about Geet.. Maan is a boy No one say a word for her..But Geet is a girl..and all fingers are raised only on the girls.. so why should we give chance to anyone else for that? Tomorrow she will go after her marriage what will her would be family think?
Dadi did not answer as the reason for which she denied Priya that time had no existence now.. Maan was going to marry Ria and Neha’s dream was not going to be fulfilled..so she too could not have any reason to stop Priya..
Maan-But I don’t agree maa.. I m really shocked to see you? How does an outsider matters you more than us? For so many years we all are like this suddenly someone comes and ask a question and you are taking it on your heart.. Nothing such is going to happen maa.. and what will change between us.. she always will be mitthu for me and I always will be Angel for us..
Priya-Exactly Maan.. Nothing will change only you both will have a name of your relation fpor the out sider..Can’t you do this for me Maan? TYour mother is asking anything which is not possible for you to give me. Don’t I have that right on you.. I know I m not your real mother..
Maan almost shouted-Maaa..what are you saying? How can you think like this? Did I ever say that you are not my mother..He was really hurt..
Priya-To bas Maan apni maa ki khushi ke liye uski ek chhoti si wish puri kar do..and she put her palm on Maan’s face…
Maan looked at her and he could not say anything after that.. His mother was first time asking for something.. No one was thinking about Geet who was feeling a storm in her heart..
Priya-Geet come on.. let’s start the ritual..
Geet tried to protest-Mamma please.. I don’t want.. why are you forcing angel and me..
Priay-When your angel does not any problem why you are saying this? now you don’t start again. Hadn’t you heard what I said..come here..she ordered her almost scolding
Geet gulped her saliva..she couldn’t say a word now.. she could not give them a chance to doubt on her..But How she could to this.. that was wrong too . She could not think of angel like a bro. If it was sometime earlier she might had not objected to it but things had changed for her now. Today her mother had not left any chance for her..
She tried to handle herself..and she did not buss from her place…
Priya again called her-Geet Are you listening or not.. Come here..and Geet with so many efforts got from her place and came near Priya.. She was not looking at any one her eyes were on the floor.. Today her life was going to change for ever…Priya asked geet to hold the thali in her hand but Geet did not listen.. Finally Priya took that thali and Gave it to Geet.. she asked Geet to take some roli on her finger and put in on Maan’s forehead.. Geet seeing no other option dipped her finger in the wet roli .. but her hands were shivering.. she was not looking at Maan.. Maan was looking at her.. he too was not feeling good at heart but priya asked him for something for the first time..Geet stood still with her hands in roli.. but she was not moving her hand..
Priyaa called out-Geet kya soch rahi ho..Tika lagaao Maan ko and geet with her eyes at floor took her finger out of the roli and moved it towards Angel…
Maan who was looking at Mitthu saw some tears rolling out of her eyes on her cheeks..
Geet brought her hand near Man’s face .and touched her finger with his forehead..
Part-27
Maan who was looking at Mitthu saw some tears rolling out of her eyes on her cheeks..
and her tears always pained him more than any thing.. He looked at her hand which was not in Mitthu’s control..It was shivering badly..Geet brought her hand near Maan’s face ..as she was going to put the tika on her forehead Maan held her hand..and Geet looked at Maan feeling herself stopped..
Her eyes was full of tears and Maan could see her eyes full of hurt too along with tears,.. Mithhu’s hurt was something which always made him restless..
He could have put whole the world on the flames for being the reason for his mitthu’s hurt
Maan held her face in his palms and looked at her worriedly…Maan who himself was not much convinced with Priya found Mitthu too feeling same for that. And that was enough for Maan.. He got up from his place..came near mitthu and hugged her tightly.. Geet funding herself in the safest place started to sob in her angel’s arms
Priya -Kya hua Maan?.
.dadi and Ram who were silent spectators looked at them.. They could even feel their heart sank seeing their kids like that..
Maan- Maan- I m sorry maa.. I can’t give you what you want..I can not see mitthu like this.. Maa why we should have to change our life for others.. what will you gain from that name of relation which is not going to give anything to us. We have always spent our life according to us not according to what other want.. I don’t want to spoil the happiness of our family just because someone who is not the part of life wants us to do..Can’t you see Mitthu? How much she is hurt..Even she can understands that you are doing wrong.. I m really sorry .. If you say I can give my life to you for your happiness.and can prove that you are my mother only..but I m not ready to fulfill your this wish.. I know you asked something for the first time but maa I m not able to give you..For me Mitthu matters the most.. For me she is more important than not only you papa and dadi but she matters for me more than myself. Her happiness comes forest for me I can do anything for her happiness.. My happiness is nothing in front of her. I cannot be the reason of her tears.
Priya-But Maan..
Maan-Sorry Maa.. we can’t fulfill your wish..and Don’t even think to keep mitthu away from me.. I beg of you ,..please stop this .. I m not able to bear this anymore. (To Geet)Come mitthu..let;s go and he took mitthu who was still sobbing and was not saying a word and moved towards their rooms..
Priya looked at them and then sat there with heavy heart-Maa.. I m not able to understand.. what should I do…after all I m a mother of a girl..I will be answerable for them
Ram-Priya .. I know some time some talks hurt us but that doesn’t mean that we are going to follow them and you have seen the result..The person who said that to you is not near us but see you only made maan and Geet hurt with your act.. Don’t we know our children well.. Have any of us thought like that about them.. No Ria.. We should trust on ourselves and on our children..
Dadi-Priya I m agree with Ram.. See what had happened here in few minutes? How did you turn a joyful atmosphere in to a sad one..so please don’t do anything like that again..If any one matters to us those are Maan and Geet and now Ria too.. Priya Ria is going to be Maan’s wife and I have already told her about Maan and Geet..and She too knows everything about us.. Then why anyone other more than our family should matter you?Don’t try to spoil the love and trust between this family Priya..
Priya was not able to say a word now..and her phone rang.. It was an unknown no. She picked up the call-Hello..
Other side-Hello aunty.. I m Shane here ..
and this name made priya again restless-Hello Shane why did you call?
Shane -Aunty I m really sorry for whatever I asked you.. I was feeling very bad and guilty for that.. Aunty please forget whatever I asked you.. I saw Maan and Geet.. Please don’t take any step which hurts them.. Please aunty it will ruin their relation. I know they are very much attached to each other after what Geet said about her birth I was really feeling so bad.. Their relation is made by God.. please don’t spoil it..
Priya was shocked to hear that ..The girl who was the root cause of everything was saying sorry to her.Priya realized her mistake . In her foolishness she was going to spoil the beautiful bond of Maan and Geet..
In Geet’s room
Maan made her sit on the bed and set beside her-Mitthu don’t think about what happened down stairs..Don’t feel bad about that.. Mamma is just upset nothing else.. tum to meri mitthu ho na.. No one can change anything between us Mitthu..mamma will understand this .Don’t take anything on your heart.. Got it.?
But Geet was sitting silent.. she was still thinking what happened few time ago..her eyes once again filled with water..Maan saw them and he wiped them-Mitthu please don’t cry.. I don’t feel good when I see you crying..
Geet while sobbing asked Maan-Angel.. Is it necessary to give a name to the relation ..kya koi kisi naam ke bina kisi ko apna nahin bana sakta? .If someone loves anyone without any name , is that love wrong? Kya kisi ko rishte me bandhe uske saath nahin rah sakte?
Maan looked at her He put his palm on her face and said-No Mitthu..Nothing is like this..Love or care or any other feeling does not wait for anyone’s permission.. That feeling comes automatically.. Now look at me.. I love you so much and you love me too..Do we need someone’s permission for that ..Not at all.. and see we even don’t have any name for our relation..You know Mitthu you were this much small when you were born. He showed his hands deciding the size of infant mitthu.. and you know when I touched you for the first time you held my finger very tightly as if you did not want to leave it… we did not know each other that time still you held my finger..Did you need anyone’s permission that time?..nahin na. And when maa told me that you were my gift from my parents I felt my right on you .. you matter me the most since then Mitthu and no one can remove that bond from our relation. We don’t need any tag for ourselves..
saying this he kissed her forehead and Geet hugged she thought in her mind-I know angel my love for you can’t have any name because that name has already made you related to Ria di…I m really sorry angel..You trust me this much and I m breaking your trust..I m sure the day you will know that I love you ,you will be angry on me.. I m really sorry.. And two tears again rolled out of her eyes which she wiped them quickly
Maan-so forget everything now and cheer up like you were in the morning.. warna I m sure my day is going to be turned in a bad day..and he looked at her with his raised eyes.. He smiled looking at her and in return she too smiled..
Priya entered in to the room..
Geet looked at her and a fear again spread on her face but Priya came near them and said-Maan I think you were right .. I was reacted foolishly to someone’s talks..Maan .. Geet I m really sorry..maaf kar do mujhe
Maan-Don’t say that maa, You are elder so it not looks good to see you asking sorry.. Now me and Mitthu both are happy to hear that from you..Hai na Mithu..
Geet looked at her mother and then at Angel.. and he nodded in yes.. and Geet smiled Priya kissed her forehead-sorry Geet…My children’s happiness should matter me nothing else. I want my both kids happy always..
And Ram and Dadi were watching all that..They felt happy seeing the happiness coming back to them..
Ram teased hert-Waise Priya.. I was thinking something.. what if we have to chose the happiness of one of them,.. what will we do that time..
Priya was shocked to hear that from her husband-What are you talking Ram.. I m the mother of both. How can you say this?.. and Why will I have to chose one of them?I love both of my kids.. I will pray to God to never bring that day in my life where I had to chose the happiness of one of you. She got emotional and Dadi scolded Ram-Shut up Ram.. Never ask such question to a mother..
Maan-Comeon everyone ..Papa is just pulling her leg. He is not serious..
And while talking for some time they all were normal again..It was storm which came and returned without spoiling anything..
On the other side one person was very curious to know the outcome of her move.. Ria was not able to wait but she had wait till the end of the day.. that was only going to decide if she needed her next move or not..She knew that Geet loved Maan but she was treated only as a kid in the house so no one was going to ask her or listen to her.Her love was hidden from everyone.. and that was positive sign for her.It was only Maan whose reaction mattered her the most as he was the person who was tough to be convinced ..She herself could not convince him to trust herself.. Now she was sure If Maan was not convinced then it was only she who was at loss and she was not going to accept this.. Her ego was empowering her to not to accept defeat against an innocent girl who never needed to do any thing still she always stood as winner against her.
It was evening and Ria called Priya for some excuse.. and asked her about what was going there..
Ria-Aunty.. I m sorry for whatever Shane said.. She was really feeling bad for all that
Priya cut her in middle- it’s ok Ria.. Actually I m very thankful to Shane ..
And hearing this Ria’s face lit up with happiness. She thought that her arrow hit the right target but asked as if she was unaware of everything-Kya hua Aunty..Why you are thanking her.? What happened?..
Priya was a simple lady who was always busy in her family taking care of kids. Hubby and Mother. She was not that cunning .. She while talking told Ria that she was going to do a blunder after listening to Shane… But Maan and Geet did not get agree and all made her understand that’s he was going to do wrong even Shane called her to say sorry for all that..That why she was thanking Shane she saved her from committing that sin..She also said that she was really acted silly for such a senseless talk..
Ria was hell shocked to know that and thought-OMG..Nothing happened? Why I m such unlucky girl..Why my tricks are not working on them… But she said nothing and cut the called excusing herself for remembering some important work..
Ris fumed a lot after knowing what happened there,,
Nothing was working on Geet and Maan.She was not able to separate them .. She did not want to apart them physically but if they had accepted this new relation then she would have thought of herself being at safer side But nothing like that happened..Maan and Geet were still together and their love was still intact she could not bring distance in their hearts..Geet was still in love with Maan and for Maan Mitthu still mattered the most.At every step she was getting only defeats nothing else…She lost Sahil because of Geet and even Shane too favored Maan and Geet and felt bad for asking that . She praised Maan and Geet’s bond.and to the worst of Ria she called Priya and seeked her forgiveness. That was really too much for her…
Precap-Ria and Geet face to face..Is Ria up to something?
Part-28
Nothing was working on Geet and Maan.She was not able to separate them .. She did not want to apart them physically but if they had accepted this new relation then she would have thought of herself being at safer side But nothing like that happened..Maan and Geet were still together and their love was still intact she could not bring distance in their hearts..
geet was still in love with Maan and for Maan Mitthu still mattered the most.At every step she was getting only defeats nothing else…She lost Sahil because of Geet and even Shane too favored Maan and Geet and felt bad for asking that . She praised Maan and Geet’s bond.and to the worst of Ria she called Priya and seeked her forgiveness. That was really too much for her…and with that priya too forgot everything about what outsiders could talk..
Ria was not at any peace.. She was going to marry Maan..That Maan who was not in love with her.. he had said that she was his family member like all other ..But for Mitthu he was always two steps ahead..She was hid most precious family member..
Ria was not in the state of mine where she could think something with positivity.. The constant defeats made her more selfish, More stone hearted person..She was not thinking anything about Maan .. she was not aware of the fact that what would Maan do if he comes through her intentions..She was all blind in here rage.. she had seen Maan’s family supporting herself.. They forgave her for her mistakes and even they forced Maan to forgive her.. So Ria was now thinking to take that advantage.. But Now first thing she needed to keep Geet away from Maan.. what if on the wedding day Geet fails to keep her emotions in her heart and she tells Maan that she loves her.. What if Maan gets ready to leave her for mitthu even though he doesn’t love mitthu in that sense..he will not think once before rejecting her for Mitthu.. He can do anything for mitthu..
Ria-No.. Ria.. you can’t lose to her like this… Now it’s time to hit the bull… I know it’s risky but I have to take this risk.. Everyone other than Maan are soft hearted persons.. I can impress them.It’s only Maan who over reacts if Geet is sad.. Other than him everyone takes her as a normal girl.. And with Geet it’s very easy to convince her.. After all she is so innocent. she has given me a big weapon by hiding her love for Maan from the family.. I can use that..and she smirked-Thanks geet for being so innocent..it’s only you who can understand my pain.After all you love your angel.. and you will do anything for him…
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
Two days later
Ria called Geet-Hi Geet.. How are you?
Geet-hello ria di I m fine.How are you?
Ria-I m fine too.. Geet I want to meet you.. Tell me when you are free..
Geet thought for a moment and said-Di I m free after college.. we can meet then.. what happened di? Anything serious?
Ria-yes something is serious.. and it’s related to me and Maan..
Geet-Di..should I tell this to angel..
Ria-Nnanhin Geet.. in this matter only you can help me.. I want to talk to nyou first after that I will decide what to do..
Geet thought that again something happened that angel is angry on Ria and she wants her to help in convincing angel..and Geet was very well aware of angel’s anger and she knew it well too that she only could make maan smile no matter how much angry he was..
Geet thought to help Ria and told her that she will come to meet her..
Ria-Ok Geet..come to my office after your college. I will finish my pending work till then..
Geet-Ok Di..
And after her college she was in Ria’s office.. Ria asked her PA for not to disturb them..Her father was out for the meeting..
Geet-Di what happened? Did something happen again between you and Angel? Is he angry again?
Ria-It’s not like that geet..Tell me how the preparations for your angel’s marriage going on..
Geet-we are preparing everything very well di.\
And Geet saw Ria’s serious face-Kya hua Di.. anything wrong?
Ria thought for a moment and said-Geet.. I m calling off this wedding..
and Geet’s eyes widened hearing Ria.What? what are you saying this di.. kya hua.. Angel ne kuchh kaha kya aapse..
Ria- No Geet .. he did not say anything to me.. It’s me who wants to break this relation..
Geet-But why Di? All preparations are done.. why you are saying this Di?
Ria-Because there is someone who has come between us..
Geet-what do you mean di? Kaun aaya beech me di?
Ria-Tum Geet..
Geet-Jjii? She was now scared
Ria-Don’t get scared Geet.. Actaully I was having a doubt that you love Maan but you only turned my doubt in to a belief.. I was talking to priya aunty… she told me about what happened at next to next day of diwali at your home.. She said that Maan was ready to accept the relation of a bro with you but you were crying badly and Maan then changed his mind.. Geet you cried because you love Maan na.. and Geet was hell shocked to hear that.. How did she know..
Geet statured-n..Nahin di naisa kuchh bhi nahin hai.. Angel to aap se pyar karte hain na..
Ria-First tell me the truth .. You love him or not..
Geet’s eyes bent down feeling guilty..
Ria-Geet answer in yes or no..
Geet asked-How did you know?
Ria-Geet I m a woman and I m in love too.. your behavior towards Maan generated some doubt .. 9She smartly hid the fact that she saw her talking to Maan’s phot on KC)and after talking priya I was confirmed that you ,ove Maan.. But don’t worry Geet.. ..I m not angry on you.. I love Man and I will leave him for his happiness.. I know he does not love you like you love him..Bur he will do anything for your happiness and we both know that well that your happiness matters most for Maan..I know He will be sad because he will have to sacrifice his love for you.. But for your happiness he will accept that too.. But before he rejects me for you I want to leave him .. At least I will be at peace that I sacrificed my love He did not reject me.. I will not be able to bear his rejection Geet.. That’s why I have decided to leave him..
Geet was so shocked to hear that.She was feeling guilty.. She knew that she was wrong in loving angel and Now she was becoming the reason of the separation of her angel from his love..
Ria observed her she knew that it was working on Geet,…
Ria-Now we both can’t get our love together.. so one of us have to move from his life.. So I have decided to move.. I truly love Maan and I will do anything for him.. You don’t worry Geet.. You will definitely get your love..And I will be happy to think that I sacrificed my love for the happiness of the man whom I love..I know that Maan will accept you out of his duty as he thinks only about your happiness.. He does not think of himself ..But with the time he will start to accept you a your wife..bhale hi wo mujhse pyaar karta rahe..may be he is not able to forget me for whole life,, but you will get your love
Geet heard her talks and said-No Di pleas don’t say like this.. Angel loves you..You can’t leave him.. Angel ko to pata bhi nahin hai ki mere dil me kya hai..and he will be very sad if you leave him.. I can’t see him sad di.. please you tell me anything to do but please don’t leave him..I will do everything to keep you and Angel together..
Ria was happy to hear but she did not want to jump
Ria-No Geet.. I m not thinking about myself.. I m only thinking about Maan’s happiness. . Just think Geet if any day he comes to know about your love for him.. what will he do?H
Geet-But di he doesn’t know.. I haven’t told him .. and I promise di I will never tell him..I can assure you.
Ria-That’s the point Geet.. I don’t want to live my life with the insecurity.. I don’ want to live my life in fear ,… Fear of you being around Maan,.. I will always be scared to think that what if Maan comes to know about you..I m not even able to enjoy my wedding time since I knew that you love him… I m surrounded by a fear which is haunting me even in my dreams..it’s not letting me sleep peacefully.. you are a part of that family and you will always be in front of me for 24*7.. you know what does that mean? And who knows you breaks your silence even on our wedding day..Seeing your love marrying to someone else and tou spill the beans.. what will I do that day..that’s why I m saying that I m calling off this marriage.. .. Only one of us can live with Maan .. The way Maan pampers you will create a insecurity in my mind..Till the time I was unaware of your love it was ok with me.. But now ..I m not able to bear it Geet.. I m really sorry… I have to move away from Maan’s life..and saying this she was shading tears..and Geet was looking at her..
She was thinking on Ria’s conversation.-what wrong she is saying Geet.?. You made a mistake and Angel will pay for you mistakes.. He loves Ria di.. and you have seen him with her.. and Ria di too loves him..He left her bro for Angel..any other proof is not needed for her love for angel..But she herself now needs to prove that she too loves angel..
and she said to Ria-No di.. you are not leaving him at any cost.. I know I m not as mature as you are.. waise bhi angel mujhe to bachchhi hi samajhte hain.. I don’t know when I started to feel like this for him..but di isme Angel ki to koi galati nahin hai na.. It’s all my mistake and only I will only bear all the outcomes.. please di tell me what should I do so that you and angel are not separated/. I will not be able to see angel in pain .He loves you..
Ria-Nahin Geet.. Nothing is like this.. I m sure Maan will forget me soon..
Get-Nahin di please aisa mat kahiye. I know that I m wrong.. Di I m really help less ..I can’t undone to what I have done.. I can’t even say that I will go away ,,Where I can go leaving my family.. Di I promise you I will never say a word to angel,, He will never know that I love him..If you say will not talk to him ever in my life.. I promise
Ria-That’s the only problem Geet..it’s not possible that you stop talking to Maan.. he will not let that happen.. that’s why I m saying that I will move.. you don’t have any option but I have.. I can leave him..
Geet-Nahin d please ..You are so mature that I m sure you can seek any solution..koi to raasta hoga na..
Ris-Geet If you insist I can think.. and after few minutes she said-I think there is a way..
Geet-Kaun sa di?
Ria-Geet Maan wanted you to abroad for your study,, Why don’t you go to fulfill his wish..In that way you will go away from him and his wish too will be fulfilled..
Geet thought for a moment-Ok Di.. I will go if it is the only solution.. I will ask angel that I want to go to London for the studies..
Ria-Nnooo Geet.. If Maan listens this he will have a doubt .. as he knows that you don’t want to go..you start crying hearing this.. he will have a doubt and he will ask you.. I m scared that you will not be able to hide it from Maan and the truth will be out ..and again I will be at the loss only.. Maan after knowing the truth will leave me for you.. You have to go without asking him..
Geet-But Di how can I? I mean without telling Ange l I can’t go.. He will be angry on me..
Ria- But ..Don’t worry..I will convince him that you are doing it to give him the wedding gift ..You wanted to give him a surprise because it was his dream..
Geet-But di.. How will I manage then? I mean i need someone do do the formalities
Ria- ask you parents.. tell them the truth..Let them decide.After all it’s aboutthrir daughter. if they are ready to send you then I will only marry Maan..Otherwise Im sorry to say geet.. I will… but Geet stopped her.. No di please.. I will ask mamma papa..I will leave after your wedding..
Ria-Geet.. I too need a wedding gift from you? Will you give me
Geet-Kya Di?
Ria-I want to enjoy my wedding.. I don’t want to be scared on my wedding day.. I will always be in fear if you break your silence.. geet please I need a favor..
Geet-Boliye na di..
Ria-I want you to leave before our marriage.. I mean at the eve of wedding.. Auspicious time for wedding is in the morning..That means all the rituals will be done a day before..you can join all the rituals.. But I don’t want you to be present during our wedding.saari rasme to pahle hi ho jaayengi na.. bad saat phere hi to rah jaayenge.. Please Geet.. kya ek dulhan ko apni shadi ke din khush hone ka haq nahin hai?.
Geet-But di..What will I say to angel? I mean..
Ria-I know Geet..It’s tough for you but..But I know this too that you are a big girl..Maan thinks you as a kid But I know that you are not a kid..you are grown up girl.. bas ek baar maan mandap taka a jaaye I will manage everything after that..After all he loves me.. I will handle him.. Please geet..
Geet felt sad that she would not be able to attend her angel’s wedding.. But she was ready to do anything for her angel’s happiness.. Geet nodded ..and Ria hugged her -Thank u Geet..Thank u so much.. I will take it as your wedding gift.. I m really very relieved now.. But this happiness will remain only when you convince uncle and aunty… If they are ready I will only marry Maan after that .. If maan comes to know this.. I will say no to the marriage..
Geet-I will try my best Di..
And she left.Ria was so relaxed.. She knew that Geet would do that after all it was related to her angel’s happiness..
Ria-One wicket down Ria.. Now I m sure ram uncle and priya aunty too will talk to you..But don’t worry aunty uncle… Now you have to prove that you love maan equal to geet.
And Ria laughed a heartful laugh.
Part-29
Geet reached home.. She was lost in her thoughts.. How she was going to manage to go without informing angel. She reached home. Priya was waiting for her as she was late today in returning from college.
priya asked- Geet today you are late. Where were you?
Geet startled- wo mamma..apni friend ke saath thi .. She was in some problem . she needed me..
Priya looked at her and she found that Geet was not in her usual way..she was looking lost
Priya-Geet what happened beta..you are looking lost
she lied to her mother -No mamma I m little tired.. I m going nto take a nap..may I will feel good
Priya did not think much and said-Ok.. go and sleep.. I will make your fav,snacks and you will feel good
Geet smiled hearing that.. she looked at her mother and hugged her-Thanku mamma ..you are the best mamma..
Her hug was little tight .
.Priya too hugged her-achchha abhi tak to dadi best thi ab mamma best ho gayi..
Geet -everyone of my family is best in the world.. ab main jaaun?
Priya-Haan ..
Geet reached in her room and sat on the bed.. Her mind was engrossed in thinking about the possibilities..One thing was sure for her that she had to go.. other wise Ria di would not marry Angel and she could not be the reason for separation between her angel and his love..
Thinking all this she laid on the bed and closed her eyes..
Maan called priya and asked if Mitthu was at home . Actually he called home for some work and that time he knew that Geet was still not home.. so he again called Priya and asked about Geet and priya told him what Geet had said to her..she also told him that she was looking little upset
Maan listened and said- maa let her rest for a while. I will come n talk to her
Priya- Ok Maan..
>>>>>>>>>>
Maan entered in Geet’s room ..He was having a packet in his hand which he kept on side table.
.and he called Geet-Mitthu..wake up..it’s late.. and Geet heard his voice and opened her eyes.. She smiled seeing him..she sat on the bed with the support of head rest..
Maan-Kya hua Mitthu? Why did you sleep at this time?
Geet-Kuchh nahin angel bas aise hi I was little tired..
Maan-Mitthu.. what happened.. Maa told that your friend is in some problem…What happened to her?
And Geet little startled at this-N..nahin kuchh nahin ..nothing serious
Maan- really?.. Should I think that Mitthu is big now and doesn’t want to tell me her problems.
Geet looked at him and pouted- Waise I m a big girl now but you never consider me like that.. You always think of me as kid only.. You know I m doing my graduation..she said making her eyes big at Maan
And maan smiled- Okk.. I got it..so now tell me what happened with your friend
And the Color of Geet’s face changed.. Now she was thinking about what to tell angel.. Maan was watching her changing expressions..
He said – Mitthu.. Is something serious with your friend? May be I can help you
Geet cleared her throat- Angel.. Wo.. Actually.. M.. My friend..
Maan blinked to encourage her
Geet- Angel.. My friend is in love with someone.
Maan heard that and laughed-abhi se? Don’t you think that you all are too small for all these things.. I mean first take care of your studies..
..
Geet- Angel.. Movies me kahte hain na ki pyaar kiya nahin jata..bas ho jata hai..Same happened with her too.. she did not fall in love knowingly
Maan was like ohh.. But asked-Then what’s the problem?
Geet- problem is that the boy whom she loves is already in love with someone else..
Maan- what? But why she loves such man who is already in love..
Geet- Because they are very good friends since their childhood and care for each other a lot.. She did not know when she started to love him.. though she knows it well that she is wrong as her that friend was already in love..
Maan- poor girl.. I feel bad for her.. Does that boy knows this?
Geet – No… Because she knows that she is wrong and does not want to lose him.. If he knows he will be angry on her.. And she doesn’t want to lose his friendship.. Angel she is so helpless. She is not able to understand what she should do..
While saying all this geet’s eyes started to pour..
Maan was shocked to see her like this.he held her face and looked at her-Mitthu..Kya hua?
Geet looked at him and held his hand on her face..
Maan brought her near him and hugged her tight-Mitthu Why are you crying for your friend?
His one hand was on her back and one on her head .He was caressing her back and head-Mitthu calm down baby.. It seems your friend is very dear for you.You are crying as if you are in problem..
Geet heard him saying that and realized that she was losing on her..
She wiped her tears and parted away from him -Angel…My friend is feeling very guilty now..and she doesn’t want to lose him as a friend..wo nahin chahti ki wo uss se saare risthe tod le.. she is not able to understand.. she is now in a fix of what to do? She is thinking to go away from them..
Maan-Mitthu.. I can understand the pain of that girl.. But nothing can be done now.. I think she should have to understand she has fallen for a wrong guy.. wo ladka to kisi aur se pyaar karta hai na.and he consider her just as her friend..he can not leave his love for his friend..Love and friendship are two different things I think she is thinking right that she should move away from their life..by doing this she will not lose his friendship and by keeping herself away from him she will be able to handle herself..and with the time she will too adjust with the situation..and may be seeing his friend happy with his love she may also feel peace at her heart.. But I know you are sad as you will miss her friend now.. Hai na Mitthu..
And Mitthu nodded hearing her angel.. Angel was saying the same what Ria said..She was still sobbing .
Maan took her in his arms..Mitthu please don’t cry.. Why are you crying this much Mitthu? Some time we have to face such situations.. all will be fine Mitthu..Please stop crying.. I m not able to see you like..If you want I can talk to your friends.. you want me to talk to her?
Mitthu while sobbing-No Angel.. I will tell her.. she will not like it if she knows that I have told you about her..
Maan-Are you sure?
Geet nodded in response..and Maan wiped her tears completely..
Maan-accha chalo ..Leave all that..Look what I have brought for you .Saying this he picked up the packet which he brought..
He opened and the a rich fragrance spread in the room and a dim smile spread on Mitthu’s lips…
Maan looked at her with the corners of his eyes and smiled to see that smile on her face.. It was her favorite Italian dish- lasania
Maan-So shall we start?
Geet-I m not hungry angel..
Maan-Oh no.. You know I missed my lunch today and when I got free I thought to have this lasania with you but you are saying no..But I don’t want to eat alone.. chalo chhodo main bhi nahin khata..saying this he kept it aside but Geet took it again in her hand- No I will eat too..
She took some piece of the dish and brought it near his mouth he opened it an d took that in his mouth and he too fed her and both started to eat .. while eating that few tears again rolled out of her eyes which maan wiped and signaled her not to cry..
Maan-Mitthu please ..don’t cry main hoon na tumhaare saath.. sab theek kar doonga.. Trust me..
and saying this she kissed her temple and Geet closed her eyes feeling that touch on her forehead..
Maan was feeling bad for her and feeling her pain but did not know he himself was the reason for her tears…
After finishing their yummy lasania..Maan brought Geet down stairs with him..and spent some time there.. After Some time he left..
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
Aftre dinner Geet came to her parent’s room..Priya nd Ram looked at her
Ram-Geet kya hua beta?
Geet came near him and sat on the bed-woo.Papa I want to say something.. actually I want something..
Ram-Really? Aaj hamaari yaad kaise aayi hamaari beti ko? Other times you are always look up to your angel for everything..
Geet-Because ..I can get this one only from you..
Priya-Geet saaf saaf bolo kya baat hai?
Geet gulped her saliva-Mamma,.. Papa.. wo ..actuallu.. I..I want to go to London to do my graduation..
Rama nd Priya was shocked hearing this.. actually this was the most unexpected demand from geet..
Ram-what? Come again Geet.. I think you said some thing wrong by mistake.. hai na… theek se bolo..
Geet-Papa I said right .. I want to go..
Priya-But why Geet? When Maan asked the same .. You took all the house on the head.. ab kya hua..
Geet-Wo Mamma I want to give angel a surprise.,. I mean I want to give him this as his wedding gift..this way his dream will be fulfilled and I too can give him wedding gift
Ram.. Geet I m not able to believe..
Priya-Right Geet.. Now Maan doesn’t want you to go so why this wedding gift? Tumne Maan ko bataya?
Geet-Mamma .. This is surprise for him so how can I tell him..
Ram-Geet are you sure? I mean you surely want to go?
Geet-Yess papa..
Ram..well that’s very good if you want .. Maan ka to sapna hai ye .. wok hush ho jaayega.. I will make the arrangement… maan aur Ria ki shadi ke baad chali jana..
Geet-N..No papa.. I want to go before his marriage?
And that was very unusual for Ram and priya.. she want’s to go before the marriage? But why?..
Priya-Geet aisa kaise ho sakta hai beta..Shadi se pahle kaise ja sakti ho? How can you miss his marriage..
Geet-Mamma please .. I m really serious.. saying this her voice changed as she was trying to stop her tears.. Priya looked at her and asked-Is something wrong there Geet?why aye you insisting to go before marriage?..
Geet-Mamma .. Papa ..Please ye baat maan lijiye..
And now Priya was sure that some thing was there . After all she was her mother..She held her face and asked-Geet kya baat hai beta.. I m sure ki kuchh hua hai. Warna tum kabhi nahi bolti aisa.. Tell us Geet.. what happened..
Ram-Yes Geet tell us beta..
Tears rolled out of Get’s eyes-Mamma.. Ria di wants me to go before marriage…and Ria’s name brought a shock on their faces..
Priya-But why does Ria want you to go.. she is no one to decide when you will go .. we all wanted you to study there but Why Ria is saying this?
Geet was rubbing her both hands .. she was playing with her fingers..
Priya-Geet I m asking you..
Geet-Mamma… because she thinks.. she thinks that I m in love with angel..saying this she lowered her head as if she was confessing her crime before her parents..
This was like a bomb for Ram and Priya which exploded on them..
Ram-What rubbish.. How can she think like this..
But Priya was looking at Geet who was sitting with her low head.. she lifted her face up and looked at her,.. her eyes and face were full of tears.. She looked at her daughter whose eyes were saying too much too her.. Her face was trembling and she understood everything
Priya-And this is the truth … hai na Geet?.. and Geer cried and hugged his mother-Mamma .. I m sorry.. I m really very sorry..
Priya hugged her tight to soothe her daughter. She parted her from herself and asked-Geet but why and when did this happened..
Geet-Pata nahin mamma..
Ram was looking at his wife and daughter..
Ram-I m not able to get the things.. ye sab kaise ho gaya.It’s not possible Priya.. Maan ko pata chala to kya sochega wo..
Geet-Please papa.. please don’t tell anything to him.. He will get angry on me for this.. He loves Ria di and when he knows about me what he will think .. so please papa I don’t want him to know this.. That’s why I m requesting.. ki mujhe unki shadi se pahle kjana hai..
Ram-But why Ria wants you to go before marriage..
Geet while sobbing-Because she is scared.. She is scared that angel cares for me a lot.. and she is not feeling good to see me around him.. She is even ready to break off this marriage because of me as she wants me and angel to be happy and she is ready to sacrifice her love for me.. But what about angel papa,. He loves her na.. so I don’t want to be a hurdle between them.. Ria di is saying that she is not even able to enjoy her wedding time as she is always having a insecurity in her about me.. she is scared if I lose my control seeing Angel getting married to her and tell my all the truth to him.. she knows that angel will do anything for my happiness but she doesn’t want to face that rejection and she is saying to break off this marriage. She wants angel to be happy .I promised her that I will go to London so that she can feel good about her marriage..If I go then she will be able to feel peace that I will not be there ..
Priya was sitting stunned.. she was feeling very bad.what ecer heaapened they never imagines about that… She could not think that in her dream… she knew that it would not be right to scold Geet for this.. as it happened naturally.. but she was feeling pain..
priya-Geet-That’s why you were crying too much on that day when I said to you and Maan to make the relation of bro and sis.. hai na Geet..Maan was ready as he does not know anything about this.,. But you were broken..
Geet- Mamma.. I m sorry.. I m sorry for creating this much problem for all of you..Papa please make arrangement for me.. Please papa I beg of you..
Ram was too having tears to see his daughter all broken.. but what could be done.. situation was very complicated.. He hugged his daughter..
Precap-Priya and Ria meet
Part-30
That night Geet slept hugging her parents.. Her life was going to be changed from now..She was mentally and emotionally tired so she slept soon..
Priya was threading her hair..Geet’s breaths were normal so she knew that she had slept..
Ram-Priya..How did this happen..I mean Geet is in love with Maan..kaise?
Priya-Ram. Maan always does everything for Geet what she asks for. Even he crosses his limits too fulfilling her demands.. He scolded Ria for Geet.. and Now Geet too is not a child.. She is grown up girl..Iss age me ladkiyon ka dil in baton ko samajhne lagta hai Ram..Maan’s love and care have awakened these feeling in her..It’s not unnatural..But problem is that Ria is aware and she is scared now and her insecurity is not wrong too..
Ram-that’s right Priya but she wants Geet to go before the wedding.. I mean .. You think that it’s possible for us to send like this?… How will Maan react if he doesn’t see her on his wedding..
Priya-I m too worried about it..
Ram-Priya you talk to Ria and try to convince her that it’s not possible for us to send her before marriage and that too without telling Maan..
Priya-I think you are right.. I will meet her tomorrow. ..and will try to make her understand..
Her eyes were wet to think about her daughter.. Though she was a strict mother but she loved her a lot .. It was very hard for her to see her daughter like this..
Ram’s eyes fell on the samples of wedding cards which he had brought for Maan’s wedding .
Ram-You know priya..today I brought these cards to select for my son’s wedding and today only I knew about the news of my daughter’s broken heart.. samajh me nahin aata ki kaise react karun? ..
Priya wiped her tears- we have to think about both Ram.. so try your best to be normal in front of Maan and maa.. she is not well.. and she will not be able to bear all this.. Maan too had decided to keep marriage a family affair and a reception later so that she is not over exhausted..Maan aur maa ko iss sab ke bare me pata nahin chalna chhaiye.. Let me talk to Ria first
Ram-I hope everything gets fine without complications..
And Priya just hummed..
Morning
Geet was still sleeping .. Maan and dadi were there to select one card among the sample as they have to send the cards for printing..
Maan and dadi started to see the cards
Dadi-Priya.. Where is Geet?
Priya-maa she bis sleeping … Yesterday she was very tired
Maan got worried as he knew that she was very disturbed because of her friend..
Maan-Still sleeping..Is she fine? Let me check.. Ram and Priya looked at each other..
Priya- Maan.. She is in our room..
Maan-Aapke room me..kyun? tabiyat theek hai na uski?
Ram-Haan she is fine..
Maan-No..Let me see
Maan reached in to the room and found mitthu sleeping.. He ruffled her hairs and called her-Mitthu ..and she opened her eyes..
She saw Angel and smiled-Good morning angel..
Maan-Why are you sleeping till this time? College nahin jana kya?
Geet-Yes angel jana hai..
Maan-Mitthu.. Are you fine now?.. kal yahaan kyun soyi?
Geet-Angel I was not feeling to sleep so came to sleep with mamma papa..
Maan-? Are you still worried for your friend.. Don’t worry Mitthu.. everything will be fine
Geet-I know Angel.. after talking to you I know that everything will be fine..
Maan-Hmm..achchha chalo ..bahar dadi bula rahi hain
Geet-Ok..and she after getting fresh came out..
Dadi-Good morning geet..
Geet Good morning dadi.. what are you doing?
Dadi-wedding cards for Maan’s marriage..
Geet-Oh..
Dadi-you too have a look.. select one..
Geet-Me?
Dadi-Haan kyun nahin..
Geet picked up cards and started to see them..
Geet was looking normal.. but Priya’s heart was crying to see Geet selecting the cards.
Geet stopped-But Dadi these are for angel’s wedding na ..so ask him..
Angel you select after all it’s your wedding..
Maan- How does it matter? Tum select karo..I m sure our choice is same
Geet-Ok..and geet selected one of them..
and Maan said to Ram-papa this card is final..Mitthu ne jo pasand kiya mujhe bhi wahi pasand hai..
Ram-But Maan you too have a look.. tumhari shadi hai..
Maan-I saw them and I too like the one which mitthu selected..
He looked and Miththu and Mitthu smiled at him..
now Ram and Priya could see that it wasn’t her fault that she was in love with his angel.. He was the one who cared for her most.
Ram-Ok then I will send them for printing along with print matter
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
Priya was at Ria’s office as she did not want to meet her at home for this matter.. Ria was well prepared for it as she knew that this would happen..
She welcomed her with a sad face-namaste aunty..
Priya-namaste beta..
Ria-baithiye aunty..
And Priya sat in the chair in front of her..
Priya- Ria.. I m really feeling bad that this happened..Geet told us last night what ever you talked with her..
Ris-I m really sorry aunty for whatever I said..But I m really helpless…
Priya-We understand Ria but how will we convince Maan..Let her attend your wedding..after that she will go..
Ria-I a sorry again aunty but.. jab se muhje pata cahla hai ki Geet Maan se pyaar karti hai ..I have lost my sleeps aunty.. and everyone knows how Much Maan loves her.. I know he does not see her like she looks at him..but I m very scared..
Priya-Ria I m promising on behalf of Geet that Maan will not know about her..
Ria-I m not comfortable with this now.. Mujhe har pal ye darr laga rahta hai ki kab geet Maan ke saamne bol degi ki wo pyar karti hai uss se..
Priya – So what Ria.. Maan to tumse pyar karta hai na..
Ria-Han aunty he loves me but when it comes to Geet he does not care for anyone and in this situation How can I be at peace..Keep yourself at my place aunty.. if you know that someone is more close to uncle than you ..even after so many years of trust and marriage are you able to have a lady around uncle who is in love with him.. Bhale hi uncle aapse kitna bhi pyar karte hon..will you be able to bear that lady?
I m not asking Geet to be away from Maan for ever,.. It’s just a matter of some time.. I want her to away from Maan so that I m sure that my marriage is not in danger..and about her leaving before marriage .aunty I don’t want to feel insecure even at my wedding day,.,,har pal mujeh aisa lagega jaise Geet abhi sach bole wali hai.. Will I be able to feel any happiness on my own wedding? Ek dulhan hone ke naate itna haq to banta hai na mera..
And If you think I m wrong I m still ready to break this marriage.. It’s better to feel sad for few days than crying for years for losing my love.. at least I will be satisfied that I sacrificed my love for his happiness.. and Believe ne aunty I m saying it from the bottom of my heart..I only want to see Maan happy.. No matter with whom he is
Priya was sitting in front of her in a thinking mode..
Ris looked at her and pated herself in her mind-You are too good Ria..
Ria-Aunty I m really sorry..But I know that you love Maan like your own son.. Though you are not his real mother still you love him like a mother.. I don’t want you to be trapped between your two children,, ek taraf Geet hai jo aapki apni beti hai dusri taraf Maan hai jo aapko maa se badhkar manta hai.. .I m still ready to leave him as you all will not have to choose your one child happiness..who I m among them.. I know he loves me a lot but I m sure too he will soon forget me.. and you will be at peace too to see your both children near you..saying this she started to shed tears..
Priya looked at her and thought about her.. Geet loves Maan then where ria is wrong..Maan and Ria love each other since long,..It’s Geet who has come between them..and she was not only Geet’s mother , she was Maan’s mother too equally ..
She returned from there .. Ria wanted to celebrate her win.. as she knew that she was going to get what she wanted.. She was sure that priya loved Maan like herc own son.. and she and Ram would not do anything which hurts Maan..
Priya explained everything to Ram and they knew that there was no options other than sanding Geet away..because they had to chose one’s happiness and They decided to choose Maan’s happiness as they did not want any finger to be pointed towards them saying that they chose Geet’s happiness as she was their own daughter and Maan was not their son..
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
At one side Ram was searching the options to send Geet,. He was busy in arranging her visa and admission in University..and other side Maan’s wedding preparations had started..
Priya and Ram locked the pain of sending their daughter away in their heart and got busy in arrangements of Maan’s wedding.. Shopping was in full swing.. geet was still attending her college so she was kept away from shopping and other things..and Priya did it knowingly as she could not see her daughter breaking every day at this tender age..
One day she asked Maan and ria to do the shopping of their wedding dress.. Ria asked Maan to shop together as she wanted their dresses of complimenting designs.. Ria even came to know about the preparations of Geet to go to London.. She thanked Priya for understanding her situation and Priya smiled hearing her and said that she was not only Geet’s mother but of Maan’s too..
Ria smiled and thought -I know aunty that’s why I emotionally charged you for Maan..
Maan and Ria went for shopping.. they did the shopping of their wedding dresses ..they were asked to collect them after few days..
At the store Ria saw a beautiful dress ..that was really very beautiful..
She showed that dress to Maan-Maan Look at that dress.. How beautiful that it.. hai na..
Maan looked at the dress and he too liked that.. he asked the salesman to pack that ..
Ria was happy to see that Maan bought that dress without saying a word..Maan dropped Ria at her house.. Maan handed her all her dresses except the one and that was the same dress for which Ria showed to Maan..Ria looked at that bag and then at Maan-Maan this dress?
Maan-This is for mitthu.. Uss par bahut achchhi lagegi..
Ria in her mind-Mitthu.. Not again.. but she did not say any word and gave him a sweet smile-Right… uss par bahut achchchi lagegi..
And she thought In her heart-only If she gets a chance to wear it..and she smiled..
Maan drove away after dropping her and reached home..
Geet and Priya were there ..Dadi looked at him and asked-Ho gayi shopping..
Maan-Haan dadi wedding dress do teen din me milegi baki ke kapde yahaan hain.. and he showed his shopping to them.. Geet was looking at the dresses.-Angel this one will suit you .. Black Armani is so good..
Maan-Mitthu have you done your shopping or not?
Geet.. n..nahin abhi nahin.. mamma is not getting time.. she was saying that we will go in few days..
Maan-OkSee this… and he handed her a bag
Geet-What’s that..
Maan-Open and see
Geet opened the bag and found a beautiful dress inside it.. she took it out and became happy.. She loved that dress..
she put that dress in front of her and showed to them-Look dadi..Mamma..kitni pyaari dress hai hai na..
Dadi-Haan geet bahut pyari hai but hamaari geet se pyari nahin..
Maan was looking at Mitthu with a smile..
Geet looked at him and she hugged him-Thank U angel.. for such a lovely dress .I loved it..
Maan and dadi smiled whereas Priya’s throat was chocked with emotions seeing Geet being happy for her angel..
Ram was a resourceful man so he arranged everything at urgent requirement for Geet. Few days before marriage Ram handed over Geet everything..Her visa passport and the admission slip ..and told her to keep everything safely so that no one can know about this..and Geet nodded..
Ram-Geet we will leave at 11 at night after completing the pre wedding rituals..
Get-Ji papa.. she looked at Ram ..Her face was trembling in effort to stop her cry..
Ram stretched his arms and Geet came in to them sobbing.. Priya too could not stop herself from crying..
Ram took her too in to his hug and they all shaded tears together.. and they knew that few days were left in their separation..
Precap-Wedding ritual starts and Mohit takes entry
Part-31
Love makes a person weak as well as strong too.. Same happened with Geet.. She was thinking how she would be able to live alone there without her family specially Angel on whom she was dependent completely.. When he was away for his studies she never felt alone as she had every right on him to disturb any time..
Things were different now She knew that she would have to be strong for her angel and his happiness.. she could not be dependent on him any more.. as he was going to have someone else in his life and obviously he would have his own life…
May be it was her innocence which was forcing her to think that she was wrong and this guilt feeling was giving her the strength to behave strong..
Since the time her preparations were done for going to London she was feeling as if a burden was off to her heart..She was sure that Ria would convince him and everything would be fine. And She was feeling good too to think that she was going to fulfill her angel’s wish only to study at London University..She was seeking the reasons to feel strong ..
Maariage was planned in a very simple way as dadi was heart patient and they did not want her to get hyper due to the wedding schedule so Marriage was going to be the family affair and a grad reception was planned at the same night
Ram Priya and Geet had consoled their hearts for the departure of Geet and were much quiet at heart..For Ram and Priya at one side their daughter was going away from them and on the other side their so was going to get married so feelings were pouring in their heart as mixture of both effects
And Geet was trying to spend her most of the time with her angel .. she was not missing any opportunity of being with him. Sometimes she got lost while talking to him.and whenever Maan found her lost he asked the reason but perhaps it was her love and the guilt which was giving her the strength to keep a hold on her self.. she always gave him a sweet and innocent smile to make him assure that she was fine.
And inside of her she was scared for telling lies everytime to him .. What if angel comes to know about her lies? Will he be angry on her? But his happiness mattered for her more than his anger because this was the first time when she was going to do something for his happiness otherwise it was angel who did everything for her happiness
In the name of family they had Sujata and her family only .. She landed in India to attend the wedding along with her husband and Mohit.. Saumya could not join them as she was carrying the baby and Dr. had suggested her not to travel long distance..
Mohit saw Geet and was mesmerized by her beauty. Every time he saw her , found her more beautiful.. he had already fallen for her few months back when she was in London.. but his that feeling deepened more seeing her again..
Everyone welcomed them .. Geet and Mohit were good friend too and always gelled well whenever they were together.. but for Mohit her closeness was making him to feel different.. Geet was 18 and he was in his 20th year..
Sujata had heard Geet’s name so many time from Mohit so she understood that he liked Geet..so she raised the topic among the elders of the family.. Mohit and Geet were not there..
Sujata-Bhabhi I want to say something to you
Priya – what’s the matter sujata?
Sujata-Bhabhi I want your Geet for my Mohit
And not only Ram and priya but maan and dadi too were stunned for different reason..
Ram and priya knew the truth so they knew that right now it was not possible in any case.. Dadi who earlier was sad for Neha’s dream was now little relieved that Geet was going to be the part of the family however and Maan was shocked hearing that..
Maan-Bua ji what are you saying? Mitthu is not of the age of marriage.. She is still studying
Sujata-Maan I know but I m not talking about now.. I m talking about the time when Geet completes her studies.. Mohit too is studying right now.. we will marry them when they complete their studies
Maan-No bua ji.. I don’t think it’s right.. I want he to see standing firmly on her feet first.. she is very small and innocent and I want her to be fully independent..
Sujata- maan if it’s in your hand you will never let her allow to grow.. Man she s 18 years old.. samajhdaar hai wo
Maan Bua ji you may think anything but it’s wrong and what is the use of fixing the alliance at this early stage.. who knows mitthu may like someone else at that time.. I don’t think it’s right.. and most important we have to ask Mitthu first.. we can not tie her in any relation without her consent..
Priya’s eyes became wet seeing Maan’s concern for Geet..may be Geet was going to be a kid for him forever.. He did not know that his mitthu had started to love him and was so mature that she knew what was right and what was wrong for her and Maan…
Ram looked at priya and said to sujata- Sujata Maan is right.. Let Geet complete her studies and if she agrees we will think about it..it’s too early to talk about it..we are not denying but still you have to wait..
And the discussion was over..
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
Pre wedding rituals started all rituals were planned at the day before wedding as the wedding was in the morning next day.. and Geet was going to leave at night her preparations were done but they did not disclose to any one even the servants too of Malhotra Mansion were unaware of the proceedings.Three hearts were feeling heavy but they were keeping hold on themselves
Haldi rituals was being celebrated .. everyone was applying haldi on Maan..
Mohit asked- Can only ladies apply haldi on groom or boys too can do this?
Dadi smiled -you too can do this Mohit..and Mohit applied haldi on Maan
and then he remembered that Geet too hadn’t applied it was really surprising for him..how she could stand behind
Mohit-Bro it’s surprising na that Geet is not here to apply haldi on you..
And Maan remembered-Yes Mohit you are right.. and he called Geet-Mitthuuu. But she was not there..
Maan-maa Mitthu kahaan hai?
Priya-yahin hogi.. aa jaayegi.. and Mohit went to search her and he found her in her room-Geet what are you doing here.. come on everyone is applying haldi on bro and you are sitting here .. he is calling you and he dragged her near Maan-Here she is bro..
Maan looked at her-Mitthu what happeed kya hua?
Geet-Kuchh ahi angel.. bas thoda late ho gayi
Mohit-I know bro why she did not come.. I think she is feeling that she will not be important to you as you are going to be married to Ria bhabhi and she will be your priority .. hai na Geet and Geet’s face paled down hearing this..
She gulped her saliva but Maan scolded mohit-Shut Up Mohit.. aisa kuchh bhi nahin hai.. don’t fill this crap in her mind..Mitthu do you think so? Don’t even think.. you remember what I told you about you and me.. Ok? No one can change our relations..
Nad Geet nodded
And she sat in front of Maan to apply mehandi on him
Motherly heart of Priya was crying for her daughter seeing her like this
Geet applied haldi on Maan’s face.. and in return Maan too put some haldi on her nose in effort to make her smile and she smiled..
Maan-That’s the mitthu.. don’t worry.. kuchh nahin hoga..
There were so many small small rituals which were making everyone amused specially Mohit.. he was finding everything new as they did not do so many rituals in Saumya’s wedding as they were in London and everything was not possible there.. But the atmosphere and the surrounding of the house were leaving some impacts on Mohit and in such one moment he confessed his love for Geet
Mohit-Geet .. you are so beautiful
Geet-Thank U mohit
Mohit-Geet..actually I want to say something to you
Geet-Haan bolo..
Mohit-Geet.. I.. I love you and Geet was like- what?
Mohit-Yes Geet I was feeling this since long.. I fell in love with you when I saw you in London..
Geet-But I don’t feel anything like this
Mohit-I know Get .. but you can think about me .. Am not that bad
Geet-Sorry mohit.. I cannot even think like this..
Mohit- But why Geet?
Geet- Mohit please don’t force me..I can not think of you in this life..
And the way Geet said it Mohit was shocked..
He was not as innocent as Geet was ..He could get the meanings of her words
He asked-Why Geet.. Do you love some one else?
And this made Geet forced to look at him He saw her face was little colorless hearing his talk..
She was looking little scared..and Geet saw him starring..and she turned her face to hide her expressions But Mohit was not going to leave her
Mohit-Geet is it right that you love some one else?
And he held her shoulder-Tell me Geet .. Who is he? Does bro know about it?
And Geet snapped-Kyun ? Is it necessary to tell him about everything?
Mohit-What are you saying Geet? I mean bro ke bare me aise kaise bola tumne
Geet-Wo I m sorry Mohit and nothing is there in my life like you are thinking.. bit I can’t think anything about you too.. I m sorry
And mohit was sure that Geet was definitely in love with someone.. and most shocking fact was that she did not tell Maan about it..Maan was unaware of this fact of Geet’s life.Geet left from there and Mohit was still standing there thinking about Geet.. He looked for Maan but found him busy with someone at all the times.. if he was not with someone he was on call for some official calls..He could not catch him completely alone..
Ram was taking care of everything .. He was aware of the fact too that he had to go to airport to drop Geet..
Priya was little worried .. she was thinking about Maan.. He never forgot Mitthu at any time.. How will they hide from him that Geet was going.. he was always concerned about Geet.. he was always aware of her whereabouts or he always called her on the phone at every hour and there was the matter of whole night and full morning .. what will happen if Maan wants to see Geet in the morning? even he was between his pre wedding rituals but he was concerned about Geet.. The way he scolded Mohit when he said that Ria would be his priority.. She was sure that Maan will not take the departure of Geet this easily.. She was now worried for Ria too. What If Maan knows the truth and he gets angry on Ria? It was the matter of Maan and Ria’s life too.. she was concerned about their new beginning too… She prayed to God to handle the situation the way Ria thought..She shared her thoughts with Ram and he said-Now we can’t do anything /.. leave everything on time.. as time passes thing will get better..
Only two hrs were left in Geet'[s departure from home..Dadi wanted to do all the preparations at night only.. she asked Ram about the sehra of Maan and Ram remembered that he had forgotten it at office..He looked at the watch and guessed that he could not go back to the office as he had to go to airport.. He could not give the keys of his cabin to any of his servant so he asked Mohit to go to the office with the driver and bring the sahra from his cabin..
Mohit who saw Maan going to his room and he thought to share the information about Geet. He was going to follow him but Ram stopped him-Mohit. Can you do a favor to me?
Mohit-Yes Uncle.. tell me what I should do?
Ram-Mohit please go with the drive.. He will guide you to my cabin in office..I have forgotten Maan’s sehra there please go and bring that here.. and one more thing it will take time in coming back ..so keep that with you in morning I will take it from you..OK?
Mohit-Ji uncle and he looked towards Maan’s room but he thought that he will tell him after coming back..
And he left ..
Geet to Dadi-Dadi.. I want something.. pleaseee
Dadi-Kya hua beta?
Geet-Dadi I want to eat red halwa.. Can you make it?
Dadi-Abhi? Geet it’s very late and I m really very tired.. Sorry beta but I promise I will make it for you tomorrow.. bas ek baar shadi ke rasmen puri ho jaaye Then I will make it for you.. Ok?
Geet looked at her-Tomorrow?.. and then said-OK dadi as you wish
Priya was looking at her and she understood why Geet was asking for halwa.. Her eyes became teary-Geet main bana doon?
Geet-Nahin mamma.. You know na that dadi makes the best red halwa.. I will eat only from dadi.. baad me hi sahi.. Hai na Dadi..
And Dadi nodded her head She was unaware completely what was going on..
Ram-Geet now you too have to go to sleep it’s quite late and he looked at his watch and Priya and Geet understood that it was time to leave..
Geet stood-main abhi aati hoon.. angel se baat karni hai..
Priya took Geet a side-Geet Maan se kya baat karni hai?
Geet-Mamma I promised Ria di that angel would be there for wedding tomorrow and I want to make sure that he is there ..Mamma.. I have to make some excuse to be disappeared for tomorrow.. I just want him to be at wedding venue after that Ria do would handle everything..If I go without telling him he will ask for me.. and everything will be destroyed.. just few minutes mamma.. I want to see him before going..
Priya with tearful eyes-Geet be careful..
Geet-Ji mamma.. I will and she left to meet her angel .. May be for the last time..
Precap-Geet leaves with her angel’s permission
Part-32
Ram-Geet now you too have to go to sleep it’s quite late and he looked at his watch and Priya and Geet understood that it was time to leave..
Geet stood-main abhi aati hoon.. angel se baat karni hai..
Priya took Geet a side-Geet Maan se kya baat karni hai?
Geet-Mamma I promised Ria di that angel would be there for wedding tomorrow and I want to make sure that he is there ..Mamma.. I have to make some excuse to be disappeared for tomorrow.. I just want him to be at wedding venue after that Ria do would handle everything..If I go without telling him he will ask for me.. and everything will be destroyed.. just few minutes mamma.. I want to see him before going..
Priya with tearful eyes-Geet be careful..
Geet-Ji mamma.. I will …and she left to meet her angel .. May be for the last time..
Geet knocked at Maan’s room.. Maan just had come out of the washroom and was going to bed to take some rest.. He was feeling little tired after performing all the pre wedding rituals..He asked the visitor to come in without turning.. Geet entered and stood behind him..
Maan sensed it was mithu and he turned-Mithu tum? But why did you knock?
Geet was twisting her dupatta between her fingers.. she said without looking at him- wo.. kal aapki shadi hone wali hai na.. So I should make it a habit from now.. from tomorrow it will be not only your room but Ria di’s too..
Maan looked at her as if he was trying to get the depth of her words.. He held her hands-Mitthu you are still thinking about what Mohit said..Mithu.. don’t take his talks on your heart,, He likes to tease you ..nothing else.. so forget what he said..
he lifted her face by putting his finger under her chin-Mitthu why you are so silent? Tum aise bilkul achchi nahin lagti.Is there anything else?.. kuchh hai to bataao mujhe mitthu
Geet -Angel.. Muj..he..aapse kkuchh..kah..na hai.. she said with pauses ..
Maan-Haan bolo .. why you are thinking this much before asking for anything,,tmhen pata hai na I will never say no to you..
Geet-Angel Ria di wants a wedding gift from me and I have said yes to her.. but I need your permission to give her that gift..
Maan-what she has asked for that you need my permission?
Geet-She wasn’t me to not be with you in your wedding..
Maan’s eyes widened-Whaaattt?
Geet understood what she had blurted-I mean she wants me to be with her on her wedding,.. she wants me to spend this night with her..your pre wedding rituals are over so it’s just the matter of one night..she wants me to spend this night with her.. and attend her wedding from her side.. wo unka bhai bhi jail me hai na issiliye..
Maan-What nonsense.. How it can be happened.. How you can go there.. just wait I m talking to her..
Geet -Angel please… I have promised her to spend this night with her.. waise bhi I don’t want her displease her,, after all we all are going to spend our life here.. if you say anything to her.. she will feel bad angel.. Can’t she ask me for such small thing? We all have to just sleep now.. Tomorrow morning you will be there and everything will be fine then..Please Angel.. Don’t be angry.. de dijiye na jaane ki permission.. I don’t want to make her sad.aur kya main aapse poochhe bina kuchh nahin kar sakti kya.. I m not a kid now.. main badi hogayi hoon.. even I have the right to vote to kya itna sa bhi faisla nahin le sakti? Now she will be angry on me that I did not fulfill my promise.. Kya sochengi wo mere bare me
And Geet sat on the bed as if she was angry on Maan for not allowing her to go… Maan looked at her and sat near her and put his hand on her shoulder.. but she jerked.. and Maan knew that she was really angry but he asked-achcha tell me .. you really want to go leaving me here?
Geet looked at him and said in a low voice-No .. I don’t want but I have promised to her.. so I have to na.. as I knew ki we all have to sleep only.. how does it matter where I m sleeping.. Issiliye I promised her..you only say na that if we have promised for anything we have to do that.. Please angel..
Maan-Maa papa know about it?
Geet-Hmm and I have convinced papa too..
Maan-Ok chalo I will drop you..
Geet-Nooo..
Maan looked at her with a frown..
Geet-I mean aap nahin.. aap nahin ja sakte wahaan shadi se pahle.. Papa will drop me..
Maan-Are you sure?
And Geet nodded..
Maan-Ok if you are insisting then go.. but I don’t want you to go..
Geet hugged him-Thank u angel.. and she stood to go..
Maan smiled.. ..jaao and sleep on time.. kahin aisa na ho ki hum eahaan pahunch jaayen aur tum soti hi raho..
Geet-I promise aisa nahin hoga and she moved and reached near the door..
She looked back at Angel he was looking at her..and something stirred in geet.
She ran back and hugged Maan tightly-I will miss you angel..
Maan hugged her back and was shocked to hear that- Mitthu.. bas ek raat ki hi to bat hai na..kal hum mil rahe hain na..Why are you talking like this?
Geet-jab tak hum nahin milte tab tak to main miss karungi na aapko..and Geet parted away from him Maan held her hand again-Mitthu mat jaao please..i will miss you too..
Geet-Jana to padega na angel.. I have promised her..and stepped back.Her hand was slipping from his hand and this time Maan was feeling as if some important part of him was going away from him.
He held her hand tight as if wanted to stop her. but it was her wish to go so he was letting her go.. Least he knew that this separation was not of one night..it was an endless separation.His Mitthu was going away from him forever.
Maan came down after Geet and asked Priya-Maa how did you and papa agree to sent her there? Priya and Ram were shocked to hear Maan.. they were thinking about what Geet had told him..
Geet interfered-Oho Angel.. why are you making it a big issue? I told you na that it’s just a matter of one night.. kal to sab theek ho hi jaayega na ..Mamma Papa let’s move fast before angel changes his mood again.. Bye angel.. Kal ache se ready hona aap.. I m sure you will look like the most handsome groom of the world,, and she giggled.. and Maan smiled and Geet signaled Ram and Priya to leave as soon as possible..
Maan-Bye Mitthu,.Take care,, sleep on time
Geet-You too angel.. take care.. and she left..
Maan looked at her retreating figure and thought-She is not a kid now.. she got ready to leave me to fulfill her promise.
He turned to go back to his room but he was not feeling good.He again called Mitthu.. She picked up the call-yes Angel..
Maan-Mitthu if you don’t feel good there just give me a call.. I will pick u up back.
Geet smiled-No Angel you can’t come there.. I will take care of myself.. Please don’t worry and have a nice sleep.. Tomorrow is a big day for you.. so you should look good.. Bye Angel..and one more thing..Please don’t call me again and again.. If you call ma again I will not pick your call or I will switch off my phone.. Just think of my reputation.. I m not a kid..
Maan-Ok baba.. I will not call you again.. Have a nice time there..
Maan reached his room and tried to sleep but was not feeling to sleep.. He was feeling restless inside of his heart but was not able to understand what it was..
They were on the way to Malhotra mansion.
Priya-Geet what did you tell Maan to take his permission
Geet told them what she said to Maan..
Priya-Ram hamaari beti ab bahut badi ho gayi hai.. shayad hamse bhi jyada samajhdaar aur strong.. and Ram held Geet around her arms-You are right Priya.. She is strong that’s why we are strong na.. and he kissed her forehead with love.. two tears rolled out f Geet’s eyes..which Ram wiped and signaled her not to cry..
Malhotra Mansion
Ram-Geet is everything ready beta?
Geet-Yes papa..
Ram handed over her some things0-Geet this is the address of the house and this is the photo of peter ,he is the care taker of the house e will pick you up from te airport.. This is your sim card.. it has ISD in it you can change it after reaching there..
Geet-Ji papa.. I need to keep these things in my bag.. I m just coming..
Geet reached in her room.. she kept petty items in her bag ..
she looked around the room and her eyes fell on Maan’s photo.. she touched that and said-I m sorry angel.. I m going .. I m really sorry to hide the truth but I cannot tell it to you as it is related to you only.. I know you will be angry on me but I needed to do it,..I hope everything will be well soon.. Till then I will miss you. I will wait for your call as I know you can’t be angry with me for long.. I m sure you will forgive your Mitthu..
Her tears were not in her control now ..her vision was becoming blur because of crying..She turned and picked the hand bag up but every thing was again on the floor as she forgot to close it’s zip.. all things got scattered on the floor she again kept everything .. she stood up and closed the zip of the bag and left but she did not see that her pink diary had slipped under the bad in which she had shared her everything with her angel..
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
Mohit picked up the sehra from Ram’s cabin and reached down again and sat in the car,.. He asked driver to move .. and after covering a little distance they found the road completely blocked.. Drive asked someone passing By there and he informed that a car and a bus had met with the accident and the roads are completely blocked.. police is handling the situation,, but it will take time..
Mohit took a deep sigh as he knew that he could not do anything other than wait to road to be cleared..
Mohit reached the home quite late and he learnt that Dadi had gone to sleep..he asked about Maan and he was told that he too had gone to sleep.. Moht too went to his room to sleep as he himself was tired and the geet’s matter slipped from his mind..
and In his Room Man was trying to sleep but he was not able to.. Mitthu’s gloomy face and her hugging him tightly was dancing in front of his eyes.. He thought to talk to her and he dialed her no.. a small ring passed too but then he remembered what she warned him if he called her , he cut the call-Nahin Maan.. ab agar tune call kya to wo sach me gussa ho jaayegi..sirf ek raat ki hi to baat hai.. kal wo tere sath hi hogi.. and he dropped the idea of calling her and tried to sleep..
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
At the airport
Ram kept Geet’s luggage on the trolley and she was ready to leave,,
Priya’s eyes were pouring as her daughter was going away..
Geet hugged her-Mamma please don’t cry..
Ram-Priya calm dowm.. sambhaalo apne aap ko..Be brave..seekho apni beti se kuchh.. and he smiled looking at Geet though his smile was completely colorless but he did not want to show her week side as he needed to handle his wife and daughter..
Geet touched the feet of her parents.. and Ram and Priya hugged her tight,,
Priya-Geet take care beta,,
Geet-Mamma.. You too take care.. and mamma angel ka khayaal rakhna..I know he will be angry on me after knowing about my departure .but please unko samjha dena.. make any excuse behind my going away but don’t tell him the truth.. Mamma kuchh bhi ho jaaye unhen sach nahin pata chalna chhaiye.. Baad me Ria di sambhaal lengi unhen..
Ram-Geet.. you don’t worry beta.. we will take care..tum bas apna khayaal rakhna.. aur haan Geet ek surprise hai tere liye.. we are coming next week there.. so just a week more and we will again together,, theek hai?
And Geet nodded..
Ram-Now Go inside.. time ho raha hai..
Geet-Ji papa.. and se again hugged them before leaving.
.priya kissed her face again and again before she left..
Geet reached near the entrance gate and one more time she looked at her parents..they waved their hands towards her, Geet gave them a smile and entered the hall of the airport. And as she entered her eyes started to pour,, She was feeling as if she was standing alone between the crowd of unknown people. She wiped her tears and moved towards the counter..
Priya was still crying.. Ram held her and consoled her-Priya we will be with her next week,, come on.. Maan bhi to gaya tha na.. You just think that he has sent her to study..
Priay-Tab ki baat aur thi Ram.. Now situation s different..Geet is alone there,, and I don’t know How Maan will react to this..
Ram-Sab theek ho jaayega Priya.. Let’s go..
Nad Inside of the airport.. process of her departure had started .. her lugguage had gone and she got the boarding pass after all the checking..she was waiting for the announcement..
She called Ria-Hello Di..
Ria heard her voice -Hello geet How are you?
Geet-Di I m on the airport..
Rai-Thank U geet.. I know I m little selfish but I m helpless.. I will be so grateful to you for dibng this for me and Maan..
Geet-Di as you wanted,Your groom will be at your door tomorrow morning.. and one more thing.. I have told Angel that I m at your house to spend the night with you as you wanted it as your wedding gift..I needed it to tell him that I m not at home for his wedding..I hope you will handle after that..
Ria-Don’t worry Geet.. Maan ko main samjha doongi.. don’t worry.. and thanks ones again..Happy journey geet..
Geet-Thank Di .. Good bye,,wish you a very happy married life di.
Ria -Thanks. Good bye Geet.. and she cut the call.. she was feeling happy as she had removed her dangerous hurdle from her life..
She patted herself-Bas ek baar Maan mandap me aa jaaye uske baad to kuchh hi der me shadi ho hi jaayegi and he will be busy in rituals.. if he will ask about Geet I will make any excuse for her disappearance.. after all she is a kid for him eho can be busy with her new friends..and I m sure that his family will not allow him to waste time of muhurth for her…shadi ka shub muhurth bhi to bas ek ghante ke liye hi hai..So wedding has to be finished within that one hour
She felt as if she had got the biggest happiness of the world today and she slept to welcome a new morning of her life..
Precap-Maan knows the truth..
Part-33
Morning.
Everyone in the house was moving here and there up and down as they were preparing for the wedding.. Ram and Priya too were doing everything..Priya was still sad thin king about Get but she had to forget her as it was the important day of her son’s life..Dadi was looking excited and was trying to everything to be perfect..
And then dadi noticed the absence of Geet-Priya Geet kahaan hai? Nazar nain aa rahi subah se.. Her Angel is going to marry and she is absent.. Isn’t it is strange ? and the name of Geet made Mohit to recall something and he went to meet Maan…
Priya told Savitriji that Geet is with Ria for the night .. She would be at her side today..
Dadi-It’s really strange,,, Geet is attending wedding from her side instead of her angel’s side..Maan se pooch kar gayi hai na
And Priya gave her a faint smile-haan Maa.. Maan ko pata hai..
And Dadi was quite surprised at it.. but she thought that they all were goibng there only so it wasn’t a big deal..
Maan was getting ready..Mohit knocked at his door and Maan asked him to come in.. He stood there seeing Maan getting ready..
Maan-Mohit.. what’s the matter? Why are you standing like this?
Mohit looked here and there..
Maan -what are you looking for?
Mohit-I m looking for Geet.. She is nowhere in the home so I thought that she would be with you only
Maan-It’s strange na.. Everyone thinks if she is not with any one she is definitely with me.. but today it’s not true.. She is not even with me.. She went even I stopped her..
Mohit-Where she is? He was sounding little serious otherwise he was always behind Geet to tease her or to pull her leg..
Maan noticed him-Kya baat hai Mohit.. Have you fought with her? And why are you always behind her.. Don’t you think that you always scare her in the name of Ria
Mohit-Nahin bro.. aisa nahin ahi.. actually I want to tell you something about Geet..
And Maan got alerted with this his hands stopped-what do you want to tell about her..
Mohit-Bro.. wo.. I ..
Maan heart stopped seeing him fumbling.. he remembered the talks of his bua regarding Geet’s alliance with Mohit.. Was something related to that thing?
Maan-Mohit kya hua hai jaldi bolo..kahin tumne kuchh ulta seedha to nahin bola usko?
Mohit gulped his saliva.. Wo bro I just..I just said to her that I ..I love you..and he stopped..
Maan almost pounced at him shouting-Mohittt,, How dare you..
Mohit-I m sorry bro.. I know that I should not have done that.. I m really sorry.. She said no to me ..
and hearing that Maan was little relieved and said- I knew it .. Mitthu is just like this.. She is not too mature to involve such matters
Mohit-but bro I need to tell you something else about her..
Maan was now more shocked-Something else?
Now his heart was fearing for something bad-Kya hua hai Mohit.. come to the point.. you are making me tensed
And Mohit exploded the bomb on Maan-Bro I think.. No I m sure that Geet loves some one.
.and it was actually no less than explosion on Maan’s head-What?.. what rubbish Mohit..Mitthu rejected you so you are blaming her like this? How dare you?And he held his collar as if he was going to slap him..
Mohit was scared but he had to tell him as he did not want himself to be accused like this-Nahin Bro I swear aisa kuchh nahin hai.. I just proposed her and she said that she cannot think about me in this life.. what does this mean Bro..that means that there is someone in her life..
And hearing this his hands lost their grip on Mohit’s collar
Maan-Mitthu is in love with someone? And I m completely unaware of it.. how can she do that.
Mohit-Bro I asked her if you know about it then she said that you do not need to know everything in her life.. Isn’t it strange?
Maan was shocked hearing it- Mitthu said that I did not need to know everything related to her life..How can she say that..
He sat numb on the bed but asked Mohit-Mohit Did you ask her about that person..
Mohit-No bro.. I did not.. I wanted to tell you first so that you can ask her..I wanted to tell you last night but I could not get the chance.. Bro please don’t tell Geet that I have told you about this.. where is she?
Maan did not reply him he was sitting on the bed.. he was not able to concentrate on Mahit now.He signaled him to go out… His attention was on Mitthu.. Her sad face danced in front of his eyes-Was that sadness related to that person? Is there some problem in her life? She was not looking happy at all.. she was looking gloomy.. How could I not notice that? I thought she was sad because of Mohit’s talks and was worried for Ria’s arrival.. and then he remembered her tight hug which she gave him last night..Is Mithu disturbed for something and is not able to tell me. What if that person is hurting her and she is not able to share it with me. I have to talk to her right now..
and he dialed her no. but it was switched off..
Maan-Oh no.. she might have seen my call last night and switched off her phone.. ab kya karun.. mujhe Mitthu se baat karni hi hai har haalat ma.. and he rushed down the stairs and said to dadi-Dadi jaldi kijiye.. we are getting late.. hame jaldi pahunchna hai wahaan.. and everyone present that laughed at him. Sujata even teased him-Oho dulhe raja ko apni hone wali dulhan se milne ki bahut jaldi hai.. Kya baat hai Maan? Don’t be impatient. we all are going there only..
He clenched his teeth with anger.. He wanted to reply her harsh but did not.. he looked at priya and thought-Should I tell this to maa… Nahin Maan.. you know she is very strict with Mithu in such matters.. what if she scolds her. And if I tell her now she will be disturbed. let me talk to Mitthu first. May be Mohit is taking everything wrong.. koi zaroori to nahin ke wo sahi bol raha hai.. No.. I should not tell anyone about it until I talk to her…
Dadi asked Priya to put the sehra On Maan and priya did that..
while doing that two tears dropped from her eyes.. maan felt those tears on his hand and looked at her-Maa kya hua? Why you are crying..
Priya wiped her tears-Kuchh nahin Maan.. bas neha aur vikram ki yaad aa gayi.. aaj wo dono hote to khushiyaan kai guna jyada hoti… and priya hid her gloominess behind the name of Neha and Vikram..Man and dadi became sad too hearing about them..
Just then Ram came and said to move as the muhurth was for a very short time so they could not delay their departure.. and they all started for Ria’s house
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>.
Baraat reached at Ria’s place and her father welcomed them.. Maan was brought towards the stage where the rituals were going to be performed.. Maan wanted to talk to Geet first..
Shane came there to meet Maan-Hi Maan.. wow Yaar looking handsome..
Maan-Thanks Shane.. Shane I want to talk to Mithu please send her..
Shane-Kya yaar Maan.. aaj ke din log apni hone wali dulhan ko dekhne ko betaab rahte hain aur tum Geet ke bare me pooch rahe ho.. yahi kahin hogi.. jab dikhegi to bol doongi..
Maan-Shane please send her soon,, Shane thougth that geet came with them and Maan wanted to call her so she said-Ok Maan I will tell her to meet you.. may be she is with Ria. Now..
And Maan nodded..
Few minutes passed but Mitthu did not turn,,
He called Mohit and asked him to call Geet.. He tried her no. again but it was switched off.. He thought-Till now she might have come to know that we all are here still she is not here and her phone is switched off too.. how careless she is..
Mohit returned empty handed-Bro.. I did not find Geet any where..
Maan was now very restless.. Priya and Dadi were busy in the talks with the guests..He wanted to go himself but pandit asked him to sit there only as the puja was going to be started…
Soon all faces turned towards one direction.. the bride was approaching .. Maan looked at the bunch of girls accompanying Ria..
His eyes were not on Ria.. He was looking for Mithu.. he could see Shane with Ria but Mithhu was missing.. Ria approached and stood near Maan..
Maan-Ria.. where is Mithhu,, and Ria’s face lost the colors..
He was asking for Geet.. she did not expect that maan’s first question will be about Geet only
Ria-Maan.. She was with me few minutes ago but left saying that she was going to meet you.. I don’t know where she is now.. aati hi hogi..may be busy hogi apni friends ke saath..
Maan nodded but his eyes were only on the people.. and his destination was only Mithu..
He one more time requested shane to send Mithu and Shane was now confused -Why he was again and again asking for her..
And Now Ria’s face started to show panic.. She knew that Maan would ask for her but not like this..
Priya dadi and Ram noticed maan’s tensed face and they came near bhim-Maan kya hua itne pareshaan kyun ho?
Maan-Papa,, Please call Mithu.. mujhe baat karni ahi uss se..
and Ram and Priya lost the color of their face-Kyn Maan aisa kya hua.. aa jaayegi yahin kahin hogi and Maan was irritated with this yahin kahin hogi chant of every one..
Maan-Maa papa please aap log samaj nain rahe ain.. I need to talk to Mittu..It’s urgent..
Ram-Aisa kya urgent ahi Maan.. abi rasme shuru hone wali hain.. wo aa jaayegi..
Ria-Maan what’s so urgent.. abi to shadi ka muhurt hai na. may be she had slept ..she must be feeling tired… pahle shadi ki rasme shuru hone do Geet aa jaaye to baat kar lena.. She was trying to handle the situation..
Maan-Come on Ria.. I damn care for the muhurth..Muhurth dusra dekh lenge shadi ke liye..Right now I need to talk to Mithu first.. There Mitthu is not ok and here you want me to marry.. It cannot happen..I need to talk to her urgently..
Priay and Ram were tensed now, They knew that it could happene ..Priya earlierhad tried to convince Ria but she was not ready to listen.., and Ria was boiling inside.. She was cursing Geet. Geet is not here but she is still between us..
Dadi- kya baat hai bte?
Finally Maan was irritated with the questions which were popping in front of him instead of calling Mithu
Maan -Dadi koi nahin samjh raha meri Baat. I need Mitthu.. She is in some trouble I think,, bas ek baar uss se baat kar loon uske baad shadi bhi ho jaayegi.. ek baar usko dekh loon that she is fine ,, then I will have no problem..
Priya was scared but she asked Maan.. -Maan aisa kya hua hai uske saath jo tumhen itni tension ho rahi hai..
Maan did not have any option other than telling the truth to the family-Maa,, Mitthu is in some problem.. She loves someone.. and she did not tell me..and she was not looking fine Yesterday. she was looking gloomy,.. Now I can understand that why she was like this.I thought that that she was worried thinking that I would be going to ignore her due to my wedding but now I m sure she is in some problem because of the person whom she loves.. I want to know about him ..I want to make sure if he is worth of her or not..
Ria got a shock of her life.. How much she tried to keep Maan unaware ofGeet’s love..But he came to know..but how? Who told him?
Ram and Priya were shocked and worried too that how will now they handle it.. what if he knows that she loves none other than but her angel only..
Shane-Maan I searched Geet but I could not find her.I did not even see her here..
Maan-What are you saying Shane? She is here since last night..
Shane -what are you saying maan Geet was not here.. I m here since two days.. Geet did not come here..
Now Maan was hell shocked and shouted being paniked-Will anyone tell me what the hell is going here?..
Shane- I don’t know Maan.. I was so surprised when you asked me about Geet.. I swear Maan she is not here..
And then Maan’s eyes fell on Priya.. Her eyes were full of tears.. Now Maan was more tensed-Maa kya hua hai.. why are you crying? Nothing will happen to Mitthu.. Don’t worry.. She will be here soon.. Don’t be scared wo mil jaayegi
and then something hit his mind..He turned towards Ria. And he moved towards her.. Ria looked in to his eyes they were filled with anger,, she got scared and took few steps back.. Maan reached near her-Ria… Shane is saying that Mitthu is not here.. but you said that she was with you.. If she was with you then why Shane did not see her.. and if Shane is right that means you know something about Mitthu..You know where she is..Tell me Ria where is she? Kahin tumne phir se usko hurt to nahin kiya.. Ria… Tell me where is mithu?
Ria gulped her saliva-wo ..Maan..Maine kuchh nahin kiya.
Maan-when you did not do anything then why did you say that she was with you..I want the truth Ria..
Ria-Maan wo Geet..
Maan-Ria..I have seen you so many times hurting Mitthu.. if this time I find you involved in this matter I swear I m not going to forgive you..
Priya-nahin Maan ..Ria is not any fault it’s only Geet who is at fault..
Maan got alert-Mitthu is at fault? What did she do?..
Preast told everyone that auspicious time was passing quickly so they should proceed for the wedding..
Ria’s father asked Maan to come for the rituals but Maan clearly denied saying until he finds about Mitthu he will not marry
Ria knew that now it was impossible to convince Maan so she played the reverse psychology on him-Maan don’t you have any feelings for anyone other than Geet.. You are insulting me and my father by saying this..
Maan-When I insulted you and your father ..I m just waiting for Mithu that’s all.I want to see her.
Ria-Mithhu Mithhu Mithhu.. nahin aayegi tumhaari mitthu bahut door chali gayi hai wo..
Ram and Priya tried to stop Ria-Ria please calm down..
but Maan had caught her words-What do you mean Ria? That’s mean it’s you who is behind her disappearing..kahaan gayi hai wo ria..
Priya-Ria.. kuchh mat bolo please Geet ne mana kiya hai..
Maan was shocked hearing this-What’s going on here? Mitthu ne mana kiya hai..Kya mana kiya hai
Ria-Nahin aunty.. I m sick of all this.. I was trying to keep everything under control but nooo.Not now… He is not ready to listen to me.. I love him so I was trying to hide everything so that he is not hurt.. but see he is not concerned about me..uske dil me dimaag me bas Mitthu hai..I m tired of his Mitthu now..
Maan you wanted to know the truth of your Mitthu.. then listen.. you always say na that she is a kid.. she is a kid,..No Maan she is not a kid.. she is not.. Jaanna chahte ho na ki wo kis se pyar karti hai..then listen..
Ram-Ria please control yourself..
Maan held her tightly-You know whom she loves?
Ria-Haan.sabko pata hai uncle ko aunty ko bas tum hi ho jise nahin pata…
Maan-Who is he?
Ria.It’s YOU Maan.. it’s you whom Geet loves..
Precap-Ria’s truth is out
Part-34
Maan was shocked hearing this-What’s going on here? Mitthu ne mana kiya hai..Kya mana kiya hai
Ria-Nahin aunty.. I m sick of all this.. I was trying to keep everything under control but nooo.Not now… He is not ready to listen to me.. I love him so I was trying to hide everything so that he is not hurt.. but see he is not concerned about me..uske dil me dimaag me bas Mitthu hai..I m tired of his Mitthu now..
Maan you wanted to know the truth of your Mitthu.. then listen.. you always say na that she is a kid.. she is a kid,..No Maan she is not a kid.. she is not.. Jaanna chahte ho na ki wo kis se pyar karti hai..then listen..
Ram-Ria please control yourself..
Maan held her tightly-You know whom she loves?
Ria-Haan.sabko pata hai uncle ko aunty ko bas tum hi ho jise nahin pata…
Maan-Who is he?
Ria.It’s YOU Maan.. it’s you whom Geet loves..
And Maan’s eyes got wider hearing that but he roared -Ria.. How dare you? How could you blame her like this. You are just blaming her as you are jealous of her..that’s all. You are always ready to blame her for anything
Ria-what wrong I said.. See the faces of them..they are saying all the story..Maan looked at Ram and Priya..They were standing with a guilt on their faces..
Maan-Papa maa.. is she right? And He held Ram’s hand and put it on his head-I just want to know the truth only .. Nothing else
Ram and priya knew that it was no use of hiding anything now..Ria had spilled all the beans..
Ram-Maan.. I m sorry.. she is right and believe me Maan Geet knew that she was wrong.. because she was well aware that you and Ria love each other..Still she fell in love with you..and she did not want to come between you and Ria so she left..
Maan was feeling as if he was receiving bombardments one after another.. he was feeling as if the earth was moving under his feet-She left? Kahaan gayi wo?
Ram-London..
Maan-LONDON? But why ..
Priya-because Ria put the condition that she would marry you only if she goes away from your life.. She was feeling insecure with her.. Geet requested us to go to London. This way she could fulfill your wish too. it was your dream and she did not want to come between your love. And we supported her as we too did not want to ruin your happiness..
Maan -aur aapne uss ko itni door bhej diya?
Ram-we did not have any choice Maan.. we were helpless as we had to chose the happiness of one of you..
Maan-Then why you chose mitthu ?why not me?
Ram-Because we had to prove that we love you equally as we love Geet.. And Ria was not ready to marry you until Geet goes away. Geet did not want you to be separated from your love because of her own fault
Maan felt as someone had snatched his heart from his body..
Maan turned to Ria-Ria.. You sent her for such a small reason? You did not think once about her..
Ria-Small reason? Maan this can be a small reason for you not for me.. From the day I met Geet I was feeling insecure of her. On the very first day I could sense her love for you. And you too only cared for her Maan not for me.. For you It was only Mithhu..I was no where in your life..you always put her above me.. Never thought of me.. Be it your birthday party where you left without cutting cake for that Geet .. or be it our engagement party which was ruined because of your Mithu. what did I want that day?..Just wanted to spend sometime alone with you but No.. Geet did not allow us for that too. She made a issue of that incident…she was always on priority for you.. How could I see that .. How could I accept that.. After all were were in Love Maan
Maan-Not we Ria..not we.. it was only you who claimed to love me.. I was always clear from my side that I was marrying you as you were fit on the scales which I wanted in my wife and dadi wanted me to get married so I said yes to you.. I never said that I love you..
And now it was the turn of the family to get the shock..
Dadi Rama nd Priya were shocked to hear this
Dadi -Maan you don’t love Ria..to shadi kyun kar rahe the..
Maan-Dadi .. I thought that Ria was a very mature and practical girl and she seemed to be a perfect life partner for me.. I believe that two person of same mindset can make a perfect pair..
Ria-You are right Maan.. I too thought the same of you.. I found you perfect for me..But I was really wrong Maan.. I waited for you that someday you will put me above all But No Maan.. You did not …See Maan.. Even today too you are doing the same..you are standing in your wedding mandap with your bride but you are thinking about only Geet ..Not me …Where was I wrong if I always wanted to see this care in your eyes for me but I still do not matter for you when it comes to geet ..
Maan-haan I agree Ria that she matters me the most..She comes for me above all even above me too to tum kya cheese ho Ria..
Ria- I know Maan.. and this was the only reason I sent her away as you did not leave any option for me other than sending her away from our life..Maan How can I live peacefully seeing her around you.. Any wife cannot see a girl around her husband who loves him.. I m not the girl of a that big heart Maan..
Maan- But why did you not ask me about it..how could you decide that alone? It wasn’t related only to you ..It was related to me and Mitthu too.. I never gave this right to you to take decision about me or Mitthu..Ria you had hurt her a lot earlier too and I forgave you for that as my family even Mithu whom you hurt asked me to forgive you..But I never expected that you could feel this much jealousy with her that you sent her away.. I will never forgive you for this Ria.. I will never.
Ria’s father-Maan Please aisa mat kaho.. Ria ki taraf se main mafi maangta hoon beta.. Maaf kar do isse.. see very little auspicious time for marriage is left.. pahle shadi ho jaane do ye sab baaten baad me solve ho jaayengi..
Maan-Shadi? Kaisi shadi uncle.. I cannot marry a girl who only thinks about her own happiness..the quality which I liked her is nowhere seen now.. She is such a selfish girl.. Shadi se pahle ye sab kar sakti hai to shadi ke baad to meri family ko barbaad hi kar degi..
Ria-Wah Maan wah.. Kya baat hai.. I left my brother for you forever and you can’t leave Geet for some time.. that was not a very big issue..Todays boys are like this andif he flirted with geet that what was wrong in that,,But that girl made an issue ..as she knew that you will hear only her not my brother..She is such a smart girl..
Maan lost his control over himself and he slapped Ria -You bother was cheap man.. He hurt my Mitthu.. uske liye to jail kya mera bas chalta to main jaan se maar deta..I stopped only for Mitthu that day..aur tum apne bhai ko favor kar rahi ho.. aur karogi bhi tum bhi to waisi hi ho na..selfish and stone heart ..
Everyone was now confused what they were talking about..
Dadi-Maan what are you talking about? Kya kiya sahil ne Geet ke saath?
Maan- He molested her.. he tried to rape her.. and everyone was so shocked to hear that.
Maan.-and that happened because Ria forcefully send Mitthu with him.ye jaanti thi iska bhai kisa tha.. still she sent her with him out of her jealousy towards Mitthu
No one could believe that Geet had faced such situation.. and they remembered that Geet was sick that day and How much carefully Maan was handling her..
Priya was about to fall hearing this But Ram held her-Priya..kya hua..
Priya-Ram.. Geet ke saath itna sab ho gaya aur hame pata bhi nahin chala..
And they heard a sound of one more slap.. all looked there and found Ria holding her cheeks.. Dadi was standing in front of her with a fire in her eyes-Ria I told you everything about Geet and Maan..I was feared for this reaction only as I knew that no girl could bear this situation That’s why I told you how their relation was and you accepted that too.. I thought you were really so understanding.. I was considering ourselves lucky to have you as our DIL.. But you proved me wrong Ria.. How could you think about that?..you did not think once about that innocent girl before doing all this? Now I m sure that you wanted to harm her on KC knowingly. You wanted to create MU in Maan’s mind for Geet but you could not see the trust of them on each other.Geet has such a great heart that she convinced maan to forgive you…You are such a selfish girl Ria..koi itna kaise gir sakta hai?
She was always like that- a voice echoed there..All looked in to the direction..There was standing a girl with spectacles. She was Valli. Ria’s cousin who was her classmate too in school .She was there to attend the wedding .She was of a very shy type of girl.. But she got the chance today to speak as she had passed through a nightmare because of Ria.( Valli is MY official picture provider-Haha.. she was very keen to slap Ria so I m just bringing her to fulfill her wish. Hope you will understand it)
Valli-Today I understood Ria that you all did with me intentionally.. just because you did not want me to come at the top in 12th Boards.. you fed me some spoiled food and I was sick due to food poisoning .. I could not prepare well for my exams and could not get very good marks..Chii Ria.. that time I was unaware as you know how to hide your crime with your fake sorry expressions. How smartly you asked for the forgiveness when you knew that I was having food poisoning that you fed me that unknowingly… when you could do this with your cousin then no one can be spared of your selfishness.. I hate you Ria I hate you and she too slapped Ria very hard- you are not worth to get anyone’s love Ria..you are the girl who knows only to snatch other’s happiness..you don’t know how to make happy others.
Valli was too much hurt remembering how much she and Ria were close when they were friends along with being classmate they both always in top two of the class.. but Ria trapped her for coming at top in boards..
Ria’s father was standing there getting shocks one after another.. he could not believe that his daughter was like this.. She was very caring towards him and he never expected this side of her..
Shane who was standing there silent came near Ria- I m sorry Ria infect I m ashamed of myself for making a friend like you.. You did not even leave me and used me for your purpose. How could you do that Ria..I too want to slap you but I feel yuck to even touch you..You are a shame in the name of friendship Ria…tum sab jaanti thi Geet ke pyaar ke bare me.. Still you encouraged me for doing that
Maan-what did she do with you shane.. you both were best friends..
Today Ria knew that she was going to be exposed completely
Shanne -Haan Maan we were the best friends and that’s why I came here to stay with her.. I was here to see the culture of India and Ria took the advantage of it and used me for her purpose..
Maan-Kya kiya isne?
Shane to Priya-I m really sorry aunty for that evening.. I asked you about the festivals.. I did not know anything but it was Ria who gave the hint.. not directly but she suggested me to ask you about the rituals of bhaidooj on Diwali.. She knew that geet loves Maan that’s why she wanted her to tie in that relation with Maan so that her path is clear from Geet’s side..
And she said to Ria-Ria Shame on you.. we all could see the serenity of their relation.. It was only you who had all that dirt in your mind.. She accepted you with her heart in her angel’s life and was ready to sacrifice her own happiness for you and him and what did you do? You hurt not only Geet Ria you hurt everyone who is related to you..you have cheated all of us.. Look at your father Ria.. you have made him feel ashamed of you.. he has lost all his self respect only because of you.. he is not able to show his face to anyone here.
Priya who was crying on her daughters pain went near Ria-Ria we all accepted you with the bottom of our heart and you gave us this pain in return.. you forced us to prove us our love for Maan. You blackmailed us emotionally intentionally.. Ria we are not like you who weigh the relations on the scale of loss and benefit… But you will not understand all this..becuase you only know how to play with emotions.. My daughter is much much better than you who at least realized her mistake and left from here for your happiness.. You claim to love Maan but what did you do with him..You just played with him.. You pretended to be good in front of him but were having the poison in your mind. You played not only with Maan but with all of us… Specially with my Geet.. we have seen her bearing the pain of being separated from her family but she faced everything with bravery… Thank God My daughter is not like you Ria.. I m proud of my daughter and You are a shame for your parents..
Maan went near Ria’s father-Uncle I m really sorry but I m sure that this wedding is not going to happen.. Your daughter has bitterly proven me wrong to judge her..may be after today I will not try to judge anyone on the basis of appearance Hope you will understand my POV.. No one can marry such a selfish girl who was trying to break the family even before marriage.. if she is like this now How stoop she will fall after marriage..
Ram too put his hand on his shoulder-We are so sorry Ashok ji.. You have heard everything with your ears.. we don’t have the heart to accept such girl who does not value the importance of love and relations
And Ashok joined his hands in front of the khuranas-I m really ashamed for all this.. Ho sake to mujhe maaf kar dijiye,, I don’t know what sins I have done in my last birth that God as punished me in this birth by giving me children like Ria and Sahil.. I m really sorry for whatever she did with all of you
All started to leave but Maan turned and went near Ria warned her in a low voice-Don’t even try to go near Mitthu from now.. if I find you doing anything against her then I will be the one who will punish you for that..I hope you remember the punishment which your brother is bearing for touching Mittu.. tumhara uss se bhi bura haal karunga.. Now I m sparing you as I m thinking about your father.He is a gentleman. he is bearing this humiliation without any of his fault.. I do not want him to see again in hospital because of you..but rmember my warning Ria.. and Ria’s eyes got wider hearing him.. He was the one who threw Sahil behind bar?.. She was now really scared of Maan .. She took two steps back as if she accepted her defeat..
Precap-Will Maan realize his love for Mithhu?
Part-35
All started to leave but Maan turned and went near Ria warned her in a low voice-Don’t even try to go near Mitthu from now.. if I find you doing anything against her then I will be the one who will punish you for that..I hope you remember the punishment which your brother is bearing for touching Mittu.. tumhara uss se bhi bura haal karunga..
Now I m sparing you as I m thinking about your father.He is a gentleman. he is bearing this humiliation without any of his fault.. I do not want him to see again in hospital because of you..but rmember my warning Ria.. and Ria’s eyes got wider hearing him.. He was the one who threw Sahil behind bar?.. She was now really scared of Maan .. She took two steps back as if she accepted her defeat..
Ram came near them and said to Ria-What did you think abput us Ria? Did you think that we all were emotional fool who were believing your all the nonsense? No Ria we were not fool..that was our love for Maan.. I know he is not my biological son but he is no less than that too..and see.. we did not know anything about your plans but God helped all of us as we all were true at our heart.. we were not having any thing bad in our minds and our heart.. Now look at yourself.. How much you tried to keep all of us in dark but you did not get success.. you are standing here defeated from every side ..That’s called the strengths of true love which do not allow any evil to harm the true love.. It was our love for each other that we all are safe from your clutches.. Now listen to me carefully.. Stay away from all of us now.. It will be me only who will keep Maan under control.. if I find you near any of us specially my daughter.. my one signal and you will be completely destroyed.. So take my advice seriously ..Take care of your father who is not able to look up only because of you and your brother.. So have some mercy on him and take care of him..
Ria was listening to him without looking at him.. Words were not able to come out of her mouth.. Her all energy had drained.. she understood very well that she could not fight any more with Destiny..
London-
Geet reached London and like Ram told her everything was perfect.. She was received by the caretaker of the house.
She reached the house but as she entered the house she felt scared as she was going to live alone here..Her luggage was being sent to settle in the room and she remembered something and said
Geet-Peter keep my luggage in the same room where angel… she stopped and looked at peter.. I mean your Maan sir lived during his stay..
Peter -Sure Ma’am
And her luggage was settled in the room of Angel..
She reached in to the room..She looked around the room.. She felt his aroma in that room and she sensed some feel of security there.. she felt as if her angel was with her in this room.
Her eyes fell on the Photo Frame which she gifted him when he came here for his studies..
She went near that wall and put moved her fingers on his face-Till now you would have been married to Ria Di.. Hope you are not that much angry on me. I m really very happy for you angel but I don’t know why I m feeling restless in my heart .Please angel don’t spoil your happiness because of your anger on me
You are very lucky angel.. aap khush hain na angel? You love Ria do and she too loves you a lot.and today you both are together now. so I wish you a very happy married life angel..Uff I forgot to switch on my phone after coming here..You must have been calling me na .Let me check
Geet looked for her phone and switched it on… Not a single call from angel? Then she thought-Oho Geet tu bhi na You phone was switched off in flight how could he call?
But her mind again said-But there should have been missed calls na? ek bhi nahin? Kahin angel gussa to nahin hain na mujhse aise bina bataaye aane par
Her heart sank at the thought.She wanted to call at home to ask if everything was fine there or not. She wanted to know if angel was angry on her for leaving like that -No Geet Not now.. wait for some more time.. Don’t know if they are back at home or not.. you should wait for some more time..let them settle at home after wedding.. then you can call..
India
Everyone left from there.. It was a big SUV to all were in one car Dadi Ram,Maan Priya along with Sujata and Mohit.. A deep silence had captured the whole car.. No one was talking to each other.. All were lost in their own world of thoughts..
Ram was on co driver seat and he asked the driver to stop The car at Malhotra Mansion..
The car stopped and Maan looked at Ram..
He smiled-Let’s have one cup of coffee first.. everyone is utter need of that right now
Maan stepped down from the car followed by others..
All were in MM now and Ram ordered the servant to bring coffee.. The servants were shocked seeing them without the bride..
But Ram satisfied them by one line-Marriage is postponed due to some reasons but be careful.. No one will talk about it outside.. If it happens that will be his last day here..
and servants nodded their heads.. One servant brought the coffee and Ram asked them to rest for the time until the call them back..
Everyone sipped the coffee .. Dadi looked at all and said-I think it was good whatever happened.. we should feel ourselves lucky that Ria’s truth came out at right time.. Just think what would have happened if we had come to know this all after marriage..that girl had planned well to break our family. If she can play with you all then just think how cunning she could have.. Maan I must say.. you really chose such a smart girl.. she was actually over smart.. How smartly she sent Get away from all of us..Am I right?
Ram-Maa I m really sorry.. Geet ki wajah se… and they looked at Maan who was dialing a no.
Ram-Whom you are calling Maan?
Maan-Mitthu ko.. When the truth is open now then why she should stay away..
Dadi-Ruko Maan.. First answer my questions
Everyone looked at her-What will you tell her Maan?
Maan-Dadi I will tell her about what ever happened here
Dadi-And what about Geet?
Maan-What do you mean dadi?
Dadi-Maan.. you know every truth now.. even the fact too that Geet loves you.. but you don’t love her. How will she face you.. Will she be able to face you when she knows that you know about her feelings for you?
Maan-dadi you know I never thought about her like this.
Dadi- if you don’t think like this about her then why did you break your wedding with Ria?.. you liked her.. You knew her since three years.. I know her act was wrong but What did she do with geet? .. Just sent her away.. she did not harm her physically.. sab jaate hain bahar padhne Geet bhi chali gayi and that was actually your wish too to send her there..Ria did that which you could not do.. Why are you feeling so angry on Ria for this?..and any girl at Ria’s place would have done the same.. Today it was Ria.. Tomorrow it could be the girl whom you will marry,.. She too will react in the same way..Then what will you do Maan? So it’s better if you make yourself clear..
Everyone was looking at them silently.. Dadi was not saying anything wrong
Maan-Dadi what you want to say?
Dadi-Just Think about Geet.. How will she feel to know that you broke your wedding with the girl whom you loved.. we all only were thinking this that you and Ria were in love so is Geet.. How she will feel Maan? If you tell her that you don’t loved Ria in that situation too problem is the same.. what about her feelings? Her feelings are not going to be reciprocated by you so what is the use of calling her back?
Maan was listening to her silently.. he was not in the right state of mind today
Dadi again said-But you know Maan somewhere I can see something is there between you and Geet which is not clear to you..if it’s not so then why you could not love Ria.. Why you always put Geet above Ria?Kuchh to feel karte hain na aap uske bare me? Yes.. I know that you can’t give those feeling the name of love because you think about relationship with mind not from heart.. Your big smart mind thinks that two same aged person can get along well with each other.. Life partner should be of the same age so that their thought too are same .. Ria was of your age, well mannered, cultured practical and smart.. then what happened?..Why you could not fall in love with her in these three years?
Maan looked with shocking expression at her..he remembered something..
Dadi smirked-Yaad aa raha hai na aapko kuchh? You only said this to me when I asked you about a girl.That time you did not accept that .to ab kya hua.. Rai was the selection of your mind Maan? Then Why you broke your wedding She was perfect for you in all aspects. Mind deceived you Maan?.. and it had to happened because relationship depends on heart not on minds.. Only business depends on mind and heart does not do business it only loves,Like you were doing business with marrying Ria and Geet was sacrificing her feeling for you because she was loving you from her heart..love does not happens with mind It happens without thinking good or bad about anything.. nor love is related to age Maan.. No one can prove that a matured person can understand love better than a younger aged person.. Pyaar bas Pyaar hai.. Neither looks age nor looks status. And love and relationships can not be run like business..
Ram-Maa aap ye sab kya bol rahi hain
Dadi-Maan is understanding everything Ram what I m saying..you have seen yourself now what happened with Maan’s so called perfect selection..
Dadi was going to speak ahead but Priya’s phone buzzed. She looked in to the screen-Geet .She attended the call and put the call on speaker-Geet Have you reached?
Geet-Yes mamma..
Priya-Are you alright?
Geet-Haan Mamma but I m feeling very lonely here.. I m scared..
Priya eyes filled with water-I know Geet.. But don’t worry beta hum jaldi hi aayenge wahaan
Geet-Mamma..wahaan sab kaise hain? Did wedding finished peacefully? Is angel angry on me for coning here without informing him?
Maan closed his eyes hearing her
Priya tried to be normal-Na nahin Geet aisa kuchh bhi nahin hai..
Geet-Mamma sach boliye na please.. I m sure he is angry on me That’s why he did not call me.I thought he would have called me after knowing my departure but he did not.Mamma please tell me the truth .. Is angel angry on me? I m feeling very restless. mujeh bahut darr lag raha hai mamma
Priya could not control herself listening to her daughter’s pain -Wo Geet..Maan ko sab sach pata chal gaya aur gusse me usne..
but before she could complete her sentence Maan realized what she was going to say and he shouted-No Maa.. You don’t need to talk to her about this..
All looked at Maan who came swiftly near priya and cut the call..everyone was shocked at what he did..
And on the otherside Geet was stunned to hear angel saying to her mother not to talk to her..
She dumped herself in to the sofa-Angel ko sach pata chal gaya? That means he knows that I love him and he is angry on me for this… That’s why he did not call me. What will I do now? How I m going to face him? and her eyes started to flow -I m sorry angel..I m really sorry for making you angry.You are so angry on me that you want to talk to me? May be I deserve this..and then she thought-Should I talk to Ria di about this? She assured me that she will handle angel and she will settle everything
She dialed Ria’s no but it was switched off
Geet-I m sure angel had asked her too to not talk to me..
She was very scared.. She was not sure what she would do now..
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
Priya-Maan what did you do ? Why did you cut the call?
Maan-Maa please usse kuchh mat bataaiye iss bare me.. I think Dadi is right.. it’s not good to tell her anything about what happened here..if she knows everything She will feel bad .. and I don’t want her to be sad there she is alone there maa…How will she handle everything. Some day she will know everything..till than let her assume that everything is fine here.. I don’t want to hurt her any more
Ram-But Maan.. till when we can hide this..
Maan-Jab tak wo yahaan nahin aati..Let her live in peace there..don’t disturb her.. How much pain she will bear because of me..I had promised to myself for not making her sad but see the only reason of her sadness is only me.. Ria hurt her and I was responsible for it as I brought her in our life..But now she had to live there we don’t have any option.. we cannot ruin her future..Papa she has to finish her studies there as she cannot get admission here in India now..Untill she is settles there well please don’t tell her anything..Otherwise she will not be able to settle there and now she doesn’t have any future here in carrier
and he joined his hands in front of him-I m sorry papa..Forgive me for my every mistake.Mitthu is in problems because of me only.
and Ram hugged him tight-Don’t say this Maan. We all know how much you care for her.. You never can be the reason of her pain..
Dadi- See Maan.. see yourself.. you are angry on everyone including yourself other than Mitthu and it should be her only whom you should show your anger..she cheated you by loving you..She cheated you by going away without informing you.. But No you are not angry on her? Can you give a single reason for that? Just think over it Maan today you have broken your relations with Ria but what about the future..Geet will leave you after her wedding with someone else one day..What will you do then? Will you bring Geet back from her home if she is in some trouble in her married life..kis kis ko apni aur Geet ki life se nikaaloge Maan?
Maan looked at her but don’t said anything he turned to move in but dadi stopped him-There is something else too Maan which not only you but everyone of you need to know..the younger aged girl about which I was talking to you to marry was none other than Geet..
and it was another bomb which blasted on Maan today
Not even Maan Ram and Priya too were shocked to hear that.That was a very new piece of information for them
Maan-You were talking about Mitthu?..But why Dadi..How could you think like that?
Ram too asked her-Maa why did not tell us about this?
Dadi stopped for a moment ..her eyes became moist-Because It was Neha’s wish..She wanted to make Geet her DIL.. She was very sure that Priya was going to be the mother of a girl and she was so happy thinking that their friendship would turn in to a relationship..
Priya-Then why she did not tell us.. she never talked like this to us?
Dadi- Because I stopped her.I suggested her to stay quite as it was not good to tie two kids in a relation without their consent..But now I think I was wrong..I should not had stopped her from talking to priya about that..and today I m telling you all because I don’t want to keep anything hidden. If I haven’t had stopped her that day may be things would have been better today..I m really sorry.. I think I m the one who is responsible for all these things..
Ram-Maa please don’t even think like this. We cannot change what ever happened earlier.. let try to be normal for our future
Then he said to Maan-Maan don’t take any decision about Geet now only because it was your mother’s dream..It’s not like that we have any objection.. But the decision should be from heart not from mind.. Don’t use your mind again in this matter..Now Geet has left for her new journey now leaving everything behind.. May be till now she must have thought that you are married with Ria..So don’t worry about her.. With the time she will be normal in her life..So don’t feel any pressure on yourself because of this new turn. Nothing is going to change between us.. You are our son and will always be.. No matter what happens..
Maan was feeling very tired not only physically but mentally and emotionally too.. He left from there..and his feet took him towards Mitthu’s room…
Precap-Will Maan get the Diary or not..pata nahin abhi mujhe..
Part-36
Maan was feeling very tired not only physically but mentally and emotionally too.. He left from there..and his feet took him towards Mitthu’s room…
He opened the door of Mitthu’s room and entered..At the door itself he felt as if the soul of the room left it. He stepped in and a pang of pain gripped him..He stood in the center of the room and looked at the furniture..
Everything was lifeless now..He felt his eyes wet..He lifted his hand to wipe them but before that a soft touch of finger wiped that tear..he looked at the source and a smile crept on his lips-Mitthu…
He saw her standing in front of him..she was smiling.
Maan held her tight with her shoulders-Mitthu??? You are here?
And he cupped her face-Are you alright? Theek ho na tum?
And he hugged her tightly to him as if she would go if he released her.. and then he looked at her again..she did not say anything
Maan-I m angry with you Mitthu..so much happened and you did not tell me?
He looked at mitthu who was only smiling
Maan-Mitthu say something . Why you are not talking to me?
He tried to put his hand on her cheek but she disappeared..
Maan-Mitthuuu..and he looked around the room. He marched to and fro in room like a mad but she was no where to be seen..
It was first day only that he knew about Geet and he was terribly missing her.. He was not thinking about the feeling which was called love.. He was just thinking about mitthu only who had left him ..
He opened her closet.. it was empty..
He turned and his eyes fell on the bed.. Barbie doll was kept there
Maan remembered that it was the same doll which he brought for her when she was three years old and was crying bitterly for the doll..It was the day she called him angel and he called her Mitthu as she talked in a very sweet voice
He picked up the doll in his hands and sat on the bad.. He looked at the doll and said to it-why Mitthu.. I m really sorry..But you should have talked to me about whatever was going between you and Ria..kyun nahin bataya mujhe kuchh bhi?
And then his mind made him to recall something..
He remembered what Mitthu had told him about her friend’s love.. The situation was the same.. That means she was talking about herself?
And he closed his eyes..He remembered that he himself advised for her friend to go from the life of the boy she loved.. he also remembered how badly she was crying and he thought that she was crying for her friend
and Maan stood at his place-NO Maan.. she told you.. she told you..
and he paced in the room being restless-Maan it was not Ria who sent her away from your lfe..It was you who sent her.. it was you who suggested her to go from your life..You are responsible for her every pain Maan..
and in anger he hit the study table of Geet where his own photo frame was kept.His hit was too strong that the frame fell on the table and it’s glass broke. He looked at it and pushed it hard to throw it from there..and the photo frame fell far away under the bed..
and in the effort to push the frame he got a cut from the broken glass on his hand but he did not care nor he felt any pain there was a bigger pain in his life now
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
Geet was sitting on the bed with the phone in her hand..She still could not believe that angel knew her truth now..she did everything to hide this from angel so that she could not see his anger or the hatred for herself but all went in vein.. Angel was aware of her love now and was so angry that he did not want to talk to her..
She was crying and thinking.. How she will face him now? She could not see that anger or hatred in those eyes for herself in which she always saw care and concern for her..
And Geet got up from her place and paced in the room-Should I say sorry to him?
But then she remembered his angry voice on phone.. How he was stopping mamma from talking to her-No Geet..Don’t think all this right now..Give him some time.. you had made grievous mistake so you have to bear the punishment too..I m sure he cannot be angry with me for long time.. it’s just the matter of some time..You will have to wait for his call.. You know how he is.He can not stay angry for long..Today he got married and don’t make him more angry on his special day.. First I should talk to mamma n papa..
She was seeking all the excuses to convince her heart that her angel could not be angry on her but today her mind was over powering her heart.. Her mind was again again and again reminding her the angry voice of her angel on phone which she heard sometime ago…She had lost all the courage to call her angel ..
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
Maan was angrily hitting his hand on the table again and again but a ring on the phone stopped him..He looked for his phone but it was not with him..He searched the phone and heard the sound coming from under the bed..Screen light too was there..while throwing the frame he threw his phone too..He bent down to pick up his phone. He forwarded his hand but the ring had stopped till then he searched for his phone as it was dark under the bed and his hand hit on something else too..he picked that up and saw the object..It was a pink dairy with his picture glued on the cover..
On the upper side of picture-To my Angel with Love was written and under his pic-From Mitthu was written in not very tidy hand writing.. she was small when he gave her the diary
He looked at it and remembered that it was the same diary which he gave to Mitthu to write everything which she wanted to tell him..
Maan-This is the same diary which I gave her..How could I forget it..I told her that I will read it after returning from London but I forgot..I returned with Ria and Mitthu after that never showed it to me..He was going to open it but again heard the ringer of the phone…he kept the diary in his sherwani and picked up the phone.
It was from some of his client. He received the phone-Hello
Client-Congratulations Mr. Khurana. I m really soory .. I will not be able to be a part of your reception party. I need to take my wife to the hospital..She is seriously injured . I wish you a very happy married life Mr. Khurana.. Have a good day .
And then Maan remembered that reception was planned at night..
He thanked the person for the wishes and told him that the reception was postponed due to some family reasons..he will be informed about it later..He open the door of the room and almost ran to the family..
Maan-Papa a client called me just now. He was sorry for not attending the reception..Papa what we will do now? Reception party is planned for the evening
Ram- I think I should inform all that wedding is cancelled,,
Maan-Nahin… nahin papa… I think we should keep it closed..just inform them that it’s postponed due to some family reasons..I told the same …I don’t want this news to go out right now.. we don’t have any reason to tell anyone..Just think about Mitthu ..I don’t want her to be dragged in this matter..,Just make any excuse papa and cancel this reception party..if we say that wedding did not happen it will become a news and you know na once it comes in media it will spread like a fire and Mitthu too will know everything and once she knows she will be able to stay there.. She has already taken her transfer from here and can not seek admission here again.. it will ruin her life.. papa please understand what I m saying,,
Ram nodded and called someone from their PRO department and ordered him to send a regret mail telling the reason for postponing the reception..
And it was done in few minutes as all the email IDs were already saved in the system to be used to send invitation mails earlier..
Ram got the confirmation from the department for sending the mails.
And Maan took a breath of relief
Ram asked priya to make something to eat as he had already sent the servants out but and asked savitri ji to take some rest as the day was very tiring for all..Maan stopped her-Nahin maa.. please talk to mitthu first..That time I cut his call.. baat karo na uss se ki wo theek hai ya nahin
Priya-Maan you call na,..She must be waiting for your one call..Maan looked at dadi and shook his head-Nahin aap hi kijiye..mujhe bas uski awaaz sunni hai ek baar..
Priya looked at savitri ji and she nodded her head and Priya dialed Geet’s no..Maan sat near her legs on floor..
He was very tired now..Priya put her hand on his head and he put his head in her lap..His pain was big too for her,, She and ram tried to save both of them from pain but both were in bigger pain now..
Her call was picked up just after one beep-Hello Mamma.. why did you cut the call that time..sab theek hai na wahaan?
Priya-Haan Get sab theek hai? Phone was cut by mistake..
Geet-Mamma I heard angel telling you not to talk to me.. I can understand that he is very nagry on me and doesn’t want to talk to me.. Mamma I know that I have done a big mistake.. Mujhe ab darr lag raha hai,,You know I called Ria di too .
and hearing Ria’s name all got alert.. Maan’s fingers turned in to fist to control his anger hearing the name of Ria
Priya in a tensed voiced asked -You called Ria? But Why?
Geet-Mamma when angel asked you not to talk to me , I wanted to ask Ria di about what happened?
Priya in a shaky voice-what did she tell you?
Geet-I could not talk to her mamma..Her phone is switched off..mujhe pata hai mamma angel is so angry that has asked even Ria di too not to talk to me.He himself did not call me once. Even dadi too did not talk to me after knowing that I m here…it shows that how much angry he is with me.Mamma please angel ko meri taraf se app sorry bolna.. I don’t want him to make him more angry by calling him on his special day..
Every one’s eyes were shading tears hearing geet
Ram talked to Geet-Geet.. you don’t worry.. Maan will be fine soon and I assure you he will call you back..Now don’t get tensed beta..you just get settle there and start your studies,, Me and Mamma will be with you soon..and you just try your best beta.. do what your angel wanted you to do.. Join your college and work hard..meri beti ko abhi bahut aage jana hai.. papa ka naam roshan karna hai na..to ab bhool jaao yahaan ki baat.. All will be fine soon..we all love you sweet heart..Now take some rest..You must be feeling jet leg..you have to join your college tomorrow so be relaxed..
Geet-Ji papa..Come soon papa.. I m scared..
Ram-Don’t be scraed..You are my brave daughter.. you are safe there.. be relaxed..ok Bye Geet..Take care
Geet-Ji papa..Bye.. bye mamma..and she cut the call..
Maan’s head was still in priya’s lap..his body was shaking ..Priya could feel that he was crying..
Priya lifted his head and said-Maan control yourself.. just think about us.. hum sab par kya beet rahi hai socho zara.. Maan held her hands on his face and Priya’s eyes fell on his hand. It was full of blood.. while turning his fingers in to fist the blood agaim started to flow from there
Priya-.Maan ye kya hua? There is blood on your hand ..Show me..and all gathered around them ansdsaw that maan’s hand was injured
Ram -Mohit jaldi se jaao and bring first aid box from my room it’s in the right side table of the bed..Hurry up..
Amd Mohit ran and brought the first aid box ..Ram and Mohit cleaned his wound and tied the bandage on his hand.but wound was deep and it was still bleeding Ram called the doctor … Soon dr. was there and he checked the wounds…There was no need of stitches but he suggested him to take ample rest..he gave him the shot to avoid any infection.. which was mixed with the sleeping dose..Soon maan felt sleepy and he slept..
Precap-Maan reads the diary of Mitthu..
Part-37

>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>.
Geet was tired of thinking too much.. Tough she was worried that Angel was very angry on her but her inner strength was emerging strong now.. Her guilt of doing wrong was forcing her to be strong to bear the punishment which her Angel wanted to give her..
Geet -I m really sorry angel for hurting you.. But I m ready to bear any punishment you want to give me..If you want to punish me by not talking to me I m ready to bear this too.. I will be waiting for the moment you will talk to me.. Till then..I will do my best to making myself worth for your forgiveness.. I will try my best to fulfill your dream.. Hope you forgive ne then..
Peter informed Geet that her food was ready ..
She wiped her tears-Now I won’t cry..This is my punishment and I m ready to bear it.. and she got up to get fresh..
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
Maan’s eyes opened and he found himself sleeping on the bed.. His head was heavy due to the dose.. he got up from the bed and came out of the room.. he was still in Malhotra Mansion..He looked around ..No one was there.. he tried to go from there but priya’s voice stopped him-Maan where are you going? Are you ok?
Maan-Haan maa I m fine.. mujhe ghar jana hai..
Priya-Maan .. maa is not well..Her BP shot up high..
Maan-What? Where is she?..
Priya-In guest room..
Maan rushed towards the room and found everyone there..
He reached near the bed-Dadi.. kya hua aapko..aap theek hain na..
Dadi-Maan I m fine it was just high BP.. Nothing else..
Maan held her hand. Dadi looked at him..He was looking miserable.. She caressed his face -Maan I m perfectly fine..
Maan hugged her-Im really sorry Dadi.. maaf kar dijiye mujhe..
Dadi patted his back to make him calm..
Sujata and priya were cooking dinner in the kitchen.. No one had eaten anything since morning…After some time they were there with food.. they served the food there only instead of dining table..
priya handed the plate to Maan..Maan denied
Ram-Maan maa needs to eat too..so please for her sake have some food..you too are not well..
Maan looked at dadi.. and stared to eat but stopped when his hand was near his mouth
He looked at Ram
Ram-Maan.. I talked to her..she is fine.. Peter told me that she had eaten her food..so relax.. she will be fine soon..
Maan bent his head and started to eat..Everyone finished h the food with heavy hearts.. after the dinner Dadi asked to go home..
Priya asked her to stay over there for the night but dadi said that she was fine and wanted to go to home.. Mohit Maan dadi and Sujata left from there..
They reached Km.. Maan took dadi to her room and carefully settled her-Dadi main so jaaun aapke paas?
Dadi-Nahin maan.. I m fine..
Sujata-Maan you too need rest.. you go to your room..I m sleeping with ma… don’t worry..
Maan-Thanks Bua ji
>>>>>>>>>>>>>
Maan reached his room.. he opened the button of his sherwani to took it out but he heard the sound of something falling on the floor..He looked at it and found Mitthu’s diary at the floor..
He picked it up and sat on the bed . He opened it.. as he opened the first page, he felt two small arms caging him on his neck.. He looked at the side.. It was mitthu.. A 14 year old mithhu whom he left and went to London ..He looked at her and in return she giggled and kissed him on his cheeks..She was swinging on his back now..
A smile crept on his face seeing her like that. He touched her cheeks and looked in to the first page..
As he started to read he heard mitthu’s childish voice (Just imagine this scene like Geet read Maan’s letter in Amritsar when he was near her while reading the letter)
Mitthu was saying-Angel.. aap chale gaye mujhe chhod ke.Pata hai aapko ki main kitna royi aapke jaane ke baad… I m so much angry on you.. I m not going to talk to you..arreyy nahin nahin.. Baat nahin karungi to kaise chalega.. Aapse baat kiye bina to main rah hi nahin sakti na.. But you know angel..Papa was saying that we should not be a hurdle in the life of someone own.. we should give our support..And Papa is always right..To aapse gussa hone wali baat cancel..but I m going to call you daily from now..and you have to talk to me. I will trouble you from here with my calls..and it will be your punishment for leaving me alone here.. and she giggled again ..Maan saw a smiling emo sign there at the end of the msg..
He looked at Mitthu but he did not see her. He looked here and there but Mitthu was nowhere to be seen and he understood that bit was his illusion..
A whisper came out of his mouth-Mitthu..and t drop rolled out of his eye.
He wiped it and again looked in to the diary.. he found ther usual talking there.. Like she was feeling alone without him..Or Mamma scolded her for something.. or Mamma did not allow her to go on picnic as she was having cold..and sometime she wrote that she was feeling very bore as there was no one to take her out for golgappe party..
Maan found there everything very natural as if she was talking to him directly..He flipped the pages of the diary and he found some pages in red text..
He found it very strange and he became curious to see what special was there in those pages..He again flipped the pages to find the first page in red color..
He opened the first page of red msg.
And he found Mitthu closing his eyes with her both hands..He removed her hands from his eyes and looked at her..She was having a naughty shine in her eyes
He too smiled looking at her and fixed his eyes on the diary
Mitthu was telling him in his ears in very low sound-Angel..This is a big secret of mine.. Promise me that you won’t tell this to anyone..It’s only between you and me.. From now onwards these red msgs are big secrets of me and you.. Promise me that you won’t tell anyone..
And Maan unknowingly nodded his head..
His eyes got fixed on that page again..
Mitthu was now sitting in front of him. She started to say in a very excited voice-You know Angel..Today Mamma was putting mehandi on her hands.. and she asked that mehandi lady to put papa’s name in her hands..When I asked about the reason behind writing Papa’s name on her palm, She told that tomorrow is Karwachuath festivals..Ladies do fasting for their husbands or for the person they love.. it’s for their long life.. She also told me that this is the way we can show our love to that person who loves us, who takes care of us.. does everything for us..
Maan smiled while reading this
And Mitthu giggled-Hehe.. You know.. I too asked that lady to put mehandi on my hands and also to write your name on my palm..
And Maan’s eyes got wider reading this line
but you know Mamma and dadi stopped that lady.Mamma said I could not as that it is the right of your wife only. This is very bad Angel.. You too do same for me na..You love me.. fulfill my every wish..Take care of me.. Now you don’t have a wife so that means no one is fasting for your long life.?. It’s not done..
Maan was too shocked to read this
but I m going to tell you my secret..I m going to keep the fast for you..Jab aapki wife aa jaayegi tab wo rakhegi..Till then I will do this because I want you to live verryyy Looong. Just think you will get extra life till then na..So I have decided ..Shhh Top secret hai hamara.. dadi aur mamma ko nahin bataaungi..
Maan’s eyes were becoming wider and wider with every line he was reading..
His heart started to beat fast-Mitthu was talking about karwachauth Fasting..That too in the age of 14 years??? How it could be possible? She did not even know the meaning of that festival and the feeling related to that festival..Still she decided to fast for me..Nahin Mitthu don’t do this..he looked at Mitthu as if he wanted to stop her from fasting for him but she was again nowhere to be seen..
With shivering hands he tuned to the next page.. His eyes were wet .. and a tear dropped out of his eyes and was going to fall on the page but again same small hand took that tear on her palm before it could touch the page..
She made herself settled in his lap – Ufff.. How tough it was to keep fast Angel.. But I had decided to do that..aapko pata hai..Subah Mamma ne BF diya mujhe.. kaise khaati main.. but could not say no too to her..samajh hi nahin aa raha tha ki kya akrun.. but when we do something with the bottom of our heart God too help us.. You know angel.. My friend Sneha talked to me and told me that her elder sis too was fasting for his boyfriend ..and she was hiding it from all.. See God too wants to help me..
A sad smile crept on Maan’s lips
and I got the idea.. I told mamma to go to Sneha’s house and aapko pata hai maine kya kiya.. I kept that food in my bag and after reaching Sneha’s house I fed that food to a street dog..hehehe.. see.. I m smart na..and I smartly asked Sneha’s sis too about how she was fasting and she unknowingly told me everything.. and at night when Maam was doing puja at tarrace I too looked at the moon and then closed my eyes came near your photo with closed eyes and looked at it..
OMG OMG Angel..I was successful Yippeee… Angel I did my fast. I m literally dancing . I swear angel..I did not eat anything and did not even drink a drop of water..Though I m tired but I m so happy.. so so so Happy angel.. you now have a little longer life..and I promise till then your wife doesn’t come I will fast for you.. Don’t worry..You are going to have a very lone life… And that means I can trouble you for longer time now..Hahahaha.. hain na Angel..
And she put her head on his chest and he hugged her tightly.. he could not control himself.
He cupped her face and kissed it numerous times-Kyun kiya Mitthu ye sab?
Mitthu looked at him and smiled-I don’t know angel..I just felt that I should do that and I did.. I don’t know anything else than this..
He hugged her again and stayed like that for sometime.
Mitthu-Angel..I m tired .. I want to sleep..
Maan looked at her kissed her hair-haan Mittu ..come.. and he scooped her in his arms and put on the bed..
he too laid there and Small Geet as usual adjusted herself on him . Maan threaded her hair till she slept and he too did not know when he slept while threading her hair..
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>.
In the Morning
Maan’s eyes opened.. he remembered about the night and looked for Mitthu but he knew that she was not there.. But he was so surprised that so much happened at last day but could sleep peacefully and he knew the reason too..
He knew that he felt Mitthu with him and she was the reason that he was a t little peace but now Mitthu’s name again made him to remember that heartless girl Ria.. who played with his and his family’s feelings.. He trusted her and she misused his and his family’s trust on her..
His anger increased remembering Ria His Mitthu is in pain because of her games..and his fingers turned in to the fists-I m not going to trust anyone now.. people play with the feelings when we trust them.. they forget that they are hurting innocent souls too in their selfishness.. meri Mitthu..usne kya bigada tha uss Ria ka jo usne ye sab kiya uske saath..
And Maan got up from his place…He was not noticing that he was calling Mitthu again and again meri Mitthu..
Maan Came Down after getting ready.. he had his BF with Dadi.. He was little early today.. Sujata and Mohit too joined them..
Mohit-Morning bro..
Maan-Morning Mohit morning Bua ji..
Everyone noticed that Maan was looking quite calm as compare to last night..
Maan finished his BF and got up to go to office..
Dadi-Maan.. you are going early today..
Maan-yes dadi.. thought to go office early so that I could catch the work.. He was trying to look normal in front of them after having BF he left..
He reached Office and found only few employees there..He looked in to the watch.. It was 9.. and the office too started at 9..
He went in to his cabin and engrossed in to the work..
Employees started to come and got busy in their morning curtsey and they were talking about the cancelation of the reception party of their boss. Actually they too were invited to attend the reception party
.Maan was looking everything from his cabin..He waited for two minutes and then came out of the cabin
Employees were busy in talking and they heard a roaring voice -What’s going on here? You are not paid to do gossips here..You are paid for work..So everyone get back to your work..
And everyone was shocked to hear their boss.. He was completely changed. Everyone was looking at him and forgot to move
Maan gave a look to them and asked in an irritated voice-Have I grown two horns at my head…Why you all are looking at me.. Move everyone and do your work..And one more person was watching all this..It was Ram.
He was not that much surprised with this change in Maan.. He knew that he had lost every reason to smile..Feeling bad for his family he moved towards his cabin..
Maan reached back to his cabin and saw Mitthu sitting on his chiar and was revolving it.. she was giggling too while doing that.. He stopped the chair..
Mitthu looked at him -Itna gussa kyun Angel?
Maan -Now you are here..I won’t be angry and he touched her face but before he could she got disappeared.
