At KC…

That evening Geet waits for Maan to leave…

Maan: Geet, chalte hain

Geet: aap jao, mujhe kaam hai

Maan: tum jaldhi kaam katam karo, hum saath mein hi jayenge

Geet: bahut dher ho jayega

Maan: kitne bhi dher ho, mein tummare bina ghar nahi jaa sakta

Geet: kyun?

Maan: dadi mujhe akhele andar jaane nahi degi

Geet had to go with him…

At home…

Dadi is waiting for them…

Dadi: toh Geet aap kis mandir gaye?

Geet: Mandir?

Dadi: aap Pinky ke saath subhe gaye ya nahi

Dadi is inquiring her to clear her doubts… and she is not happy…

Geet: Woh, hum shivji ka mandir gaye the

Dadi: which one?

Geet: Pinky ke ghar ke paas haina, woh

Dadi: wahi, kahan?

Geet: Dadi, mein jaake fresh hoke aathj hoon

Geet takes her tea to the room…

Maan is surprised to see her coming to the room while he is in…

Maan: tumme meri yaad kaisi aayi?

Maan gets closer….

Geet: dadi aapko bhula rahe hai

Maan: tum dadi se baat karna Geet, mujhe thoda kaam hai

Geet: nahi, aapki dadi hai, aap hi jao aur baat karo, najaane kaise kaise sawaal karte hai, buaji aur Sheetal aunty Dadima ko kaise sambalthe hai?

Maan smiles…

Maan: mere saath aao, mein bathatha hoon ki dadi ko kaise sambalthe

Maan catches her hand and takes her out….

Maan: dadi, aapko yahan bore nahi hotha?

Dadi: Maan bete, aap seedhe seedhe kyun nahi kehte ki ghar jao Dadima

Maan: nahi Dadi, aap bore hothi toh Geet ko lekhe kahin bahar kyun na jaathe ho?

Dadi: Maan, Geet aap ke saath bahar jaana pasand karenge ya mere saath?

Geet: aap ke saath

Dadi: hum iss umar mein ghar mein hi kush hai, Maan, aap Geet ko bahar lekhe jao

Maan: mujhe kaam hai Dadima

Geet: mujhe bhi mujhe bhi

Dadi: tum donno ko dekhke toh hummara shak badhke jaatha hai

Maan: chalo Geet, jaldhi tayaar ho jao, hum bahar jaathe hai

Geet: par

Maan pretends to hug Geet and he quietly takes her in…

Geet: chodo mujhe

Maan: Geet, dadi se behas karne se kahin bahar jaana hi behthar hoga

Geet too would agree with that….

Geet: teek hai teek hai

Geet tayaar hoke aathi…

Maan: Dadi, aap sojao, humme aane mein dher hoga

Geet: kya?

Maan: tum na, kuch din mauna vrat rakho

Dadi: enjoy bete

Maan: bye Dadi

Geet: aap, aur aapki Dadi

Maan: toh kahan chalein meri pyaari Biwi?

Geet: mujhe kya patha? Woh bhi Dadi se hi poochlo?

Maan: I know a place, you will like it

Geet knows Maan’s choice…. Uss din gaye na? Sunsaan jagah aur bas donno hi, aaise…

Ab Maan biwi biwi karte rehta toh aaise jagah pe jaana teek nahi lagtha….

Geet: mujhe na, mall mein kuch kareedhna hai, wahan hi food court mein kuch kathe hai

Geet thinks that it’s better to go to a crowded place…

Maan takes her to the mall…

Geet keeps roaming…

Maan: tujhe kuch kareedhna hai ya nahi?

Geet enters the next shop….

It’s a baby shop….

Maan follows her…

Geet stops looking at all the new born goods…

Geet looks around… she finds a cute girl dress….

What if it was a girl?

Geet starts imagining…

She then looks at a boy dress…

What if it was a boy?

Geet moves around and looks at all the different toys…

Maan is puzzled… he just follows her without any clue…

Why is she here?

Geet then looks at a cradle…

She keeps staring that…

Maan too looks at that…

Maan goes near her… he stands behind her…

Maan: Geet, tumme bachon se itna pyaar hai toh mujhe pehle hi bathathi, mein itna din tumme intezar karne nahi detha, haina? Abhi bhi kuch nahi bigda hai, mein toh kab se tayaar hoon, bas tum thoda madat karthi toh

Maan hugs her from the back…

Geet turns around in a fury and stares him…

Tears well up her eyes…

Geet runs from that place…

She takes a cab and goes home…

Dadi didn’t expect Geet to return alone so soon…

Dadi: Geet, Geet bete, Maan kahan hai?

Geet: unhe koi meeting hai

Geet rushes to her room and thinks about her baby… the one she lost… the one Maan murdered….
