Episode 4:

Scene 1:

The name simply came instinctively on her lips...And the moment she opened her eyes and saw him...again everything just stopped around. He was hooked to those eyes that were simply magical...What happens to them when they look into each other's eyes?? They just didn't know...

Geet realises she just said his name...but how😲? Why😕?? How did she know??😕

She pulls herself back and the sight of Maan petrifies her beyond thought.

And for the first time she felt embarrassed, scared, perplexed, sad, angry...all emotions rolled into one...

Tina looked shocked as if she was going to die of some attack...a gigantic heart attack...Words froze in her mouth and she just gaped at them...

Maan composed himself...and when he finally came out of the surprise, he threw an angry look at Geet...that was returned by her...

"Tum phir se!!!"

He pushes her away...rudely...

"Yeh kya badtameezi hai?? Tum pagal toh nahi ho??" he chides looking annoyed.

"Main pagal??? How dare you??? Woh toh main..." Geet quickly retorts feeling greatly insulted.

Adi comes in...

"Chill yaar..." he tells Maan and turns to Geet, "Geet tum jao...I'll take care of this...go..."

He also disperses all the others...gaping anxiously at the entire situation.

"Adi this girl...yeh...yeh..." repeats Maan angrily.

"Bahut sweet hai...yahi na??" Adi adds with a grin.

"Huh! Kya???" Maan looks baffled.

"Don't tell me you like her..."

Now Maan had enough of Adi's silly jokes...

Maan puts his arms around Adi's shoulder and pulls him to his side...

"ADI...lagta hai tujhe seedhi baat samajh nahi aati..." he groans.

Adi slowly moves away stammering...

"M...M...M...Maan, main toh mazzak kar raha tha...This was all for fun...Woh hum juniors ka welcome kar rahe the...and Tina gave Geet this task..." he explains...

Maan was furious...but the moment he heard the name Geet...something happened to his heart, as if it became suddenly excited...stirring a weird emotion in him...and Maan wondered why??

"Geet!" he repeats dreamily, "her name is Geet."

"Haan Geet, you know her??"

"Nahi...nahi toh," he suddenly composes himself and looks at Adi, "How would I know her?

"Okay, koi baat nahi...Ab mil lete hai...Chal mere saath..."

"Adi what are you doing??? Mujhe nahi milna hai usse..."

...

Suddenly Tina appears in front of them. She walks towards them...

"Maan...I wanted to talk to you..."

Maan looks at her in anger...

"Tina yeh kaisa bakwaas task tha...Tumhe college ke rules toh pata hai na??"

Tina makes a sad face and approaches him...

"Oh Maan I am so sorry...I was just trying to break the ice..."

"No," he pushes her hand, "This was really not required..."

"Maan...forget it yaar...Kyun mood kharab kar raha hai...Chal aa main tujhe First Years se milwata hoon."

"Adi...tu kehta hai toh theekh hai...but I can't stay here for long...Mujhe College-Day ki preparation bhi karwani hai."

"Oh wow...tab toh this is perfect...Come here, yahan tujhe bahut saare new talents mil jayenge..." he takes him to Geet who was talking to some other newcomers...showing them a weird dance move or as Maan thought was having a mental attack...the way she was throwing her wiry hair in all directions.

"Geet!" calls Adi...

She stops moving and lifts her palm in front of Adi, and with the other hand she clutches her tummy, trying to catch some breath...

"Ek minute please...Let me catch some breath..."

"Yeaaa...hhh!!!" he drags the word looking sceptically towards her, "Waise tum kar kya rahi thi??"

She was still not looking at them...her head still spinning from the weird move she was showing her fellow batch mates.

"I was showing them a new dance move to relieve tension...it's really effective when you are nervous..."

"Or when you have a nervous breakdown..." muttered Maan eyeing Adi.

Maan eyes Adi shaking his head as if he said what the hell?? She's mental! I told ya!

Geet lifts her head slowly and takes a deep breath...Maan rolled his eyes and looked away indifferently.

She opens her eyes and looks at Adi...but her eyes trail towards Maan...

"Phir se style jhadne aa gaya...Idiot!" she grumbled in her mind.

"Geet...this is Maan...humare college ka..."

Before he could finish she fills up... "Pata hai...iss college ka akdoo Gym Instructor joh ki khud ko iss college ka College Captain samajhta hai..."

Adi stifles his laugh...and Maan glares first at Adi and then comes right in front of Geet...

"Arre main kaise College Captain ho sakta hoon?? College Captain toh inke Boyfriend hai joh meri chatni banyenge...hain na??"

Geet looks around uneasily and then speaks, "Haan hai na...any problem??? And F.Y.I. tumhare liye accha yehi hoga ki tum mujhse door raho..."

"Nahi toh kya??? Apne boyfriend ko bulaogi??"

"Haan...ofcourse..." she lies...but he was really causing a great displeasure to her.

Nandini and Pinki look on...on the verge of panic attacks...Pinki almost choking herself with the chip packet down her throat...

Meanwhile Maan was in no mood to let her get over with the lie...So he instigated her even more...

"Toh theekh hai...bulao usse...Main bhi toh dekhoon kaun hai woh andha joh tumhara boyfriend banne ke liye tayyar ho gaya..." he smirks moving his hand up and down at her...

Geet fumes...

"Bulaooo...Ms Geet...huh!! kya hua??? Darr gaya kya??"

"Bilkul nahi, woh kyun darega..." she tries to hide her nervousness, "Bula leti main usko par...woh...woh...aaj aaya nahi hai...haan woh aaj aaya nahi hai," she repeats.

Meanwhile Adi looks at her with sympathy...and Nandini faints...

"Geet...he is the College...,"

Before Adi could complete Maan stops him.

Adi looks at him in surprise...

"Adi agar yeh drama khatam ho gaya ho toh main jaoon? And you," he looks at Geet who stares into his eyes angrily, "Mind your attitude..."

Maan leaves...and Geet stomps her feet angrily...

"Samajhta kya hai apne aap ko?" but she remembers about the previous night...

Adi smiles meekly and leaves behind Maan...shouting at her, "Baad main milenge."

...

Tina tries to stop Maan but he won't even look at her.

Maan leaves...all the girls looked dreamily at him...and gasped together...

"Haye!!!!"

...

Geet was in a different world...

"Maine uska naam??? But how did I know his name??" she was trying to reason how she knew his name... "Haan shayad maine kisi ko kehte suna hoga...yes that's it..."

Poor Geet she didn't know that his name was writ all over her heart...and that they were destined to fall in love...not just in this life...but in the life before and in the lives to come...They were one...Maan and Geet...Maaneet.

"Tu bhi na Geet...next time don't look into his eyes...sab gadbad issi liye hota hai..." she complained to herself...while Nandini looks at her wondering what's wrong with her?

"Agar usne kal raat ke baare main kisi ko bataya toh?? Nahi woh aisa nahi karega...it was dark...and there's no proof..."

Nandini quickly takes her away...Pinki follows...

"Enough tamasha for one day...Mazza aa gaya...This Freshers Day is going down in history...as the most craziest one...Phew!!!" says Pinki munching as usual.

"Tum mujhe yeh batao... ki tum uska naam kaise jaanti ho..." asks Nandini.

"Uska naam??? I don't know...it just came on my lips...just like that," she says dreamily.

"Just like that...you are kidding...right?"

"Chod na yaar...chal college ghoom kar aate hain."

...

Scene 2:

The girls are seeing around...

"Yaar he was so handsome...aur gussa...Haye! Main mar jawaan!" says Pinki dreamily.

"Pinki tera dimag kharab ho gaya hai...Mujhe toh kal raat hi pata chal gaya tha ki woh theekh nahi hai..."

"Kya??? He is the one who saw you?" asks Nandini breathlessly.

"Haan...but you don't worry...'

"Aur tune aate hi usse panga le liya...Ganpathy Bappa!! Ab kya hoga humara??? Woh zarroor complaint karega...aur phir hum???" she panics...

"Nando...calm down...Aisa kuch nahi hoga...trust me..."

Scene 3:

Adi with Maan in their class...

"Maan main kab se dekh raha hoon...tera dhyaan kahan hai...What are you thinking???"

"Hmmm...kuch nahi," he lied.

"Jhooth...Lagta hai kisi ka jaadoo chal gaya hai tum par..." he taunts.

"Shut up Adi...bakwaas mat kar...Kitni badtameez thi woh Geet..."

"Ohhh...Geet...par maine toh uska naam liya hi nahi...matlab tu ussi ke baare main soch raha tha..."

Maan frowns...

"Accha Bhai...mazzak kar raha tha..."

When Adi looks away...Maan tells himself...

"Next time I won't look into her eyes...They just make me go numb...pata nahi kya ho jaata hai mujhe?"

[Enter Vicky]

"Hey Maan...Adi...kya baat chal rahi thi???"

"Woh Maan ko kisi se..."

"A-d-i!" Maan groans...😡

Adi eats his words but could stop himself from laughing...

Maan bashes him...

[Enter Professor]

And they all settle in their seats...Adi still controlling his laughter...Maan throws a pen at him, which he dodges, but couldn't save himself from a chalk that hit him right in between his forehead...
