Chapter 50

 

 

 

 

 

 

She was all confused. Maan has given word to Vinod and if she says no to Vinod, Maan's promise will be broken and if she says yes then it was too painful for her. Her self respect, her identity, everything will be at stake.

 

After a while they went for breakfast'..

 

This breakfast felt different to Geet' All relations has changed, though she was not ready to accept it but difference she felt. Vinod did not know yet that Geet knew everything but he was busy admiring his youngest sister' Geet's mind was working and things were going on and on.

Then Geet's eyes met Vinod's and her expression suddenly changed. She kept on looking ay Vinod with so many questions in her eyes and anger in her eyes was easily felt by Vinod. He knew that very moment that Geet knew it all.

 

As if to answer her unsaid questions he said "Geet'can we talk after breakfast"

 

Geet took a deep breath and looked at Maan "Maan don't we have to finish our work for the business meet on Monday' I think that's most priority for us at present. We can think about other secondary things later on"

 

Vinod indirectly got his answer'. Things were not going to be easier' Geet was not that easy and nave  as she always would be with Maan. With Maan she was innocent pampered girl but he saw a different face of her today. Less did he knew was that it was her birth family to snatch away that kind of navieness from her.

 

Vinod: "Haan haan kyun nahi' we will talk in evening' if you have are free."

 

Annee, Viccky, Sanjana, sanjukta and their husbands who were unaware of anything were surprised by the change of conversation  between Vinod and Geet.

 

Maan did as Geet said. He was messed up between the two- one he loved so much other he respected so much' both close to his heart' but Geet in this case held strong position.

 

Geet looked at Maan driving to office. She knew what he was going thru and his trouble was her first priority but here she was stuck. She did not know how can she forgive but she could not see Maan in pain.

 

In office both were working on their cabin. Geet kept checking on Maan thru the blind and every time she found pain in his face. Not able to take it more se went to his cabin.

 

"Geet?? anything you want to say" he thought she was here to reveal her descision.

 

Geet twisted her lips "This is not fair Maan' first you make me into habit of something and then you just don't do it'."

 

Maan was confused and worried "Aisa kya hai Geet'"

 

"Pehle to hamesha office me cherne ke aadad dal dete hain aur pfir ek din " She crossed her hands on her chest and turned to other side with fake anger.

 

"Since morning I am waiting you will come to me' lekin nahi, aap to khud me hee khoye hue hain'."

 

Maan knew Geet was trying to cheer him up but he could not let her effort go waste and in real an open invitation form his lovable wife was not a bad deal at all' Ohhh'.. how they can forget everything when together.

 

Geet was about to leave in anger when Maan caught her wrist and swirled her towards him in one swift turn'. He held her by her waist and looked at her intently' Geet realized she has invoted the real trouble

 

"Maa-aan I was just just" but he pulled her by her waist and in a jerk pulled towards him and said very seriously

 

" but I am serious'." An he blew air from his mouth on her face' geet was vulnerable now

 

"Maan it's office'" she stammered "I know' but we are expert in this.. I mean office romance" and holding her like that he took her to the wall were she was pinned between wall and him'.

 

Maan sqweezed her waist and brought his lips near hers when she turned to one side'. Giving him access to her neck one side' she was breathing fast with anticipation and closed her eys to feel him'. He loosened his hands from her waist and placed them near her hands' he ntangled his fingers with hers'. Geet was too vulnerable for any resistance'. She was just waiting for his next move'. He just softly brushed his lips on her neck' started moving his fingers softly up and arm '. Geet was waiting for him to put his lips hard on her skin.. "Maa-aan" she pleaded' Maan's hand reached her shoulder' Geet was still waiting and eyes closed with anticipation but Maan just blew air thru her neck and slowly separated himself from her'.

 

 

Geet felt empty as he moved.. she slowly opened her eyes and saw Maan smiling at her with his hands crossed on his chest'.

 

Geet was so frustrated' "Dusta Danav kahee ke" she said and was about to move away when he held her wrist'..

 

"I was just obeying you' tumne bola office me nahi to'." "I know how much you obey me in these things'. Rehne do aap'. Main yahan aapke liye aayee thee aur aap'."

 

He came closer from back and held her shoulder "Abb sher ke muh me haath dalne maine kaha that tumhe'. " holding her shoulders he turned towards him

 

"Anyways'.'. This was just preparation for my nice feast at night' you yearning me wanting"   he winked shamelessly'.

 

"Shame less you are'." She left from there..

 

In the evening all the family gathered and had family time' and after that Geet went to meet Vinod. He was with Manyata. Manyata excused herself and signaled Geet to sit. Now only Geet and Vinod were in the room. They sat there with pin drop silence for some time but then Geet broke the silence.

 

"Why did you involve Maan in all this'. I was here right?? "

 

Vinod had nothing to say "usne he force kiya tha'."

 

"Aur app maan gaye as it was in your favor'. Itnee asanee se kaam jo ho gaya aapka'. And what trouble has Maan to go thru you have no Idea'. How much troubled he is'"

 

"I know am wrong'" "will that serve any good' what storm you had to create you did'. And for this thing at least I am never never going to forgive you'. How could you do this to him who cares so much about you'"

 

"Main nahi chahta tha usse involve kerna per woo hee'." "I am not going to buy this'. I will never forgive you for putting Maan thru all this'."

 

 

"Anyway'.. what exactly do you expect from me'."          "Can we be little informal Geet" he said, he knew if she keeps this much distance he could not keep his point.

 

"I can't me informal to strangers' Maan respects you a lot and it is for him that I am here"

 

 

"Anyways.. what do you expect from me'.  " "We are brothers ans sisters Geet'. Sanjukta and Sanjana are you elder sisters"

 

"How??? " she demanded an explaination. She knew the answer was very simple yet complicated she knew'

 

Vinod hesitated to answer'. He did not want to talk about parents as that would trigger anger in her and that are what she wanted' she wanted him to answer' Geet had seen a lot in life and also fought for others' she very well knew how to deal with these situations.

 

"Geet you know how'. Insab baton ka kya matlab hai'. We are siblings right and no one can change this truth' you are my baby sister, chotee behan banker baat karo na baccha' main tumhe khoob khushiya dena chahta hoon'. Her ek khushi jisse tum door rahee hoo" he placed his hand on her head lovingly caressing her hair.

 

Geet held his hand and removed it'. She did not want to be placed in emotional blackmail'"No' I first want to know how' simple and straight'"

 

Vinod had tears in his eyes' he could realize her pain in her anger. He was ready to take it all' Chotee behan ka gussa ser aankho pe'.

 

"Does anyone talk this way to her elder brother" he asked lovingly caressing her cheek.

 

She removed his hand "If you are not answering me, I am leaving"

 

Vinod immeditly said "Geet ruko' I will answer you"

 

Geet stood sternly to listen "We are born from same parents'" the moment he said that he could see the pain behind her angry face'

 

"We are bonded by Birth Geet" Geet changed her expression

 

"Ohhh really' why not. A birth where I was thrown away from house as a punishment of being born in that house'. Born to parents for whom I was least important'. So less important that they left me to be taken anywhere never to be found"

 

Vinod had no answer' he was trying to find something to console and to sooth her anger but before he could say anything'.

 

"I am leaving' my husband must be waiting for me" she started to leave but again turned back

 

"Don't even think of putting Maan in all this from now onwards'. It will worsen your case"

 

And she left. Vinod just stood there feeling the pain of hers'. He felt so helpless and at fault. He shied knowing now this will take time' he have to think about Geet more now rather than his own guilt. He will make her free of this pain that has been inbuilt in her but it will take time he knew and she wanted him to take no help from Maan so that makes things more tough for him but he himself did not want to involve Maan now' the boy has suffered a lot already due to his mistake that Geet made him realize today.
