PART 4

Its 7:00 PM in the evening...

Pinky: Oye Geet...Jaldi se Tayar ho ja, aaj bahar chalthe hain dinner karne (Get ready fast..we shall dinner out)

Geet: Nahin pinky...Aaj mood nahin hain. Aur baat karthe karthe itna snaks jo kha liya... (No Pinky, I am not in a mood today. And we had too many snaks together)

P: Yeh tho 30 mins main hajam ho jayega yaar...chalna.. (This will get digested in 30 mins...) will take you to one of my favourite restaurant

G: Will have something light... you get Vegetarian food there?

P: Ofcourse yaar...how can I ever forget this?

Geet gets dressed in simple Jeans leggings and an ethnic light green Indian top with lot of embroidery work on it...Her long hair left open. Not much of makeup but still manages to look naturally gorgeous to kill anyone who passes by.

Both leave...go for a long walk and now they are standing near the restaurant entrance when Geet's Amma calls her on Pinky's mobile.

P: Geet..Its Radhika Aunti's (Geet's mom) call on my mobile. You take her call...I will wait for you inside the restaurant..

Geet has all tears formed in her eyes and she is feeling chocked within hiding all her emotions.. This is the very first time she is staying away from her family But she had to take this decision... she wipes her tears and composes herself before taking her Amma's call.

G: Amma...

Even Radhika is finding it so difficult..but she doesnt want to cry over the phone and make Geet weak.

Radhika: Kondhai...Eppadi ma irukai (How are you?)

G: Nalla Irukken Ma ( I am fine)

R: Unaku Delhi pidichuda?(Do you like Delhi?) Pinki Veedu pidichurukka? (Do you like Pinki's home?) Pinki unnai nallabadiya parthukarala? (Does pinky takes care of you?)

G: Ellam paravaillai Amma... Pinki enna romba nalla gavanikkara..Ava veedum nalla perussa irukku. ippa than indha oorai sutthi parkaren...Aana namma Bangalore, Chennai, Coimbatore madhiri illai...Romba vidyasama iruku...Ellam poga poga sariyaidum kavalai padadeengo.

(All fine mom...Pinky is taking good care of me. Her home is very big...And just getting to see the city...But its different compared to Bangalore, Chennai, Coimbatore..will settle down as time passes by everything will be fine...Dont worry)

R: Nee ponadhulendhu veede verichodi kadakku (This home is deserted without you)

G: Naanum ungalaiyellam rumba miss panren amma... (Me too..miss you all so much). Appa/Rajji ellorum ketadha sollungo. Naan marupadiyum nalaiku phone panren... (My regards to Dad/ Rajji...Will call you again)

She cuts the call...closes her eyes.. And Tears rolls down her cheeks.

On the other side of the road...Maan is driving and his eyes got attention of some girl who is on the other side of the road... she seemed to be that chennai girl.....but couldn't believe what he just saw... OH MAAN...You are really losing your mind...how can it be her?

He slows down his car and looks back at her again...and again he could see that its the same girl from Chennai...Oops...he is shocked...and goes further to take a U turn to come close to her..

By this time...Geet entered the Restaurant and out of vision of Maan...he stops his car on that spot where Geet was standing and looks around every where.

Oh...damn..What a miss...After 2 long years...By the way...Was it the same girl or my imagination? How can it be? Woh Delhi main kya kar rahi hain? (What is she doing in Delhi?) He pushes his hair back with his palm... I am going mad now...enough is enough..he hits his tyre with his feet for not having a control on his thoughts...he hates himself to permit someone to rule over his thoughts...he drives rashly towards his Manscion so that he can spend some time in his Gym...

Maan...starts with his Tai-Chi session...remembering again about that girl...Her long hair...her eyes...her lips..Oops...it was looking gorgeous even when she was giving those Tamil flavoured Gaalis...Then how will it be to hear sweet words from her...

He snaps away from her thoughts and now he is desperate to put an end to this fight with himself...Aaj kal jahan dekho wohi nazar aa rahi hain...Bohuth hogaya...aaj ke baad main kabhi us ke bare main nahin sochunga...(I get to see her everywhere now a days...enough is enough... I will not think about her again with effect from today.)

(Out comes MSK Attitude😂 )

His Daadi (Grandma) sees him doing Tai-Chi and she comes near him...Maan Beta main roz aap ko hoo-haa karthe huve dhekthi hoon...Par aaj kuch ajeeb lagraha hain...Kya baat hain? Sab teek hain na? (I keep seeing you doing this Hoo - Haa session but today I feel something different about it...what happened? All fine?)

He doesnt want to show that someone is ruling his mind...he pretends everything is normal..but he is lost somewhere..

Haan Daadi...Bus yunhi...Challo dheri ho rahi hain...Main chaltha hoon (Its just like that... I am getting late...I got to leave)

He moves from there leaving his confused Daadi behind...I am sure there's something ....see...he is not looking straight into my eyes and answering me.

Next day...Geet finishes with her admission formalities with Delhi University. She managed to convince them to time adjustment based on the job she gets. The concerned authority agreed to it understanding that she needs to work and study at the same time like many other students.

Pinky is helpful in giving her laptop to Geet where in she can browse the net and start applying for Delhi based positions. Also, gave her information about different newspapers which regularly advertise positions and leading job agencies in the town.

Pinky comes home in the evening after a hectic office schedule. She is carrying a internal office memo from office she works...Khurana Constructions need Junior Business Analyst. The JD perfectly matched with Geet's profile.

P: Geet..Hamare office main ek position aaya hain aur yeh tumhare profile se match kartha hain...Dekho. (Geet...there's a job opportunity in my office itself..it matches perfectly with your profile)

G: Yeh tho bohuth achi baath hain...please mera CV de dena...tumhare paas hain na... (Oh..this is a good news...You have my CV na? Please give it to the concerned person)

I'll do it as the first thing tomorrow morning... OK?

Precap: Keep thinking...

Well...8 years back when I had already typed 4 parts of Geetika and I had heard this song playing in my music system and I got the idea to include tamil songs into this story...So...this was the first ever song which I had shared... and that's one of the reason it became so special to me.

You can relate this song to Maan's current restlessness... even otherwise, you can just listen to this song without any reason... 💗💞💗

(You can as well skip this page if not interested... and move ahead with the story)

This is one of my favourite Tamil song sung by ROOPKUMAR RATHODE. Depicts Maneet's state of mind at this stage. To remind you...he cannot speak Tamil...but listen to this song which he has managed to sing like a native Tamil speaker...Big applouse to him

The meaning of the song goes like....
Its a time to watch out for the Goddess who is near to me but yet far from away from me

My heart melts with the very thought of her

I do not have any control on the sweet memories of this love even if I sleep...these memories doesnt sleep

I keep telling my heart not to keep looking at her but this heart never listens to me.

___

Oh girl..What have you done to me?

I have lost track of time and date

My feet is on earth but I feel I am flying

Wonder what I am doing where I am going

I know my way but still getting lost. Love could be so mean and now I could understand it so well when I am feeling it.

___

Why do I have eyes? I asked this question to myself

After meeting you, I have realised that my eyes are just to cherish your beauty

When death nears me, I wish to lie down in your lap

my destination spot is where your feet stops.

___

I do not have any control on the sweet memories of this love even if I sleep...these memories doesnt sleep I keep telling my heart not to keep looking at her but this heart never listens to me.

Its a time to watch out for the Goddess who is near to me but yet far from away from me
