Part 4

Me busy with studies.. that's why late & short update..

I realized how involved I was getting with maan lately. It had been a week since I had first talked to him. Just a week! & here I was wishing to talk to him all day long. I know maybe I was doing something wrong; just maybe. But I've just made a good friend, nothing else. I don't think this is wrong. But then when I call him a friend, a part, a very minute part of my heart shouts at me, " is it so? Just a friend, huh" I don't know if he's something more than that. I just know that when sunaina told me that he has to eat something every two hours 'coz he's diabetic, I felt bad, I felt like crying. When she told me he has to inject insulin every morning & every night, & it pains a lot, I felt bad. Not that he feels much pain now, he's used to it, but I felt the pain. I had just heard abt diabetes before this. I had never seen someone suffering from diabetes. But when I got to know his pain, my heart also pained. It hurts a lot to think of something hurting him. She even told me that when maan was abt 15 yrs old, of my age, from that time he's suffering through this. And when his family first came to know abt his disease, he would have died if they had not taken him to the hospital. I hurt a lot hearing all this.

But this was not all. Here he was trying to bring unknown colours- the most beautiful colours in my life, when his life was a mess. Sunaina said she wasn't sure of what it is b/w him & his.. faithfulness I'd rather say, but they don't talk nowadays. She told me that maan once told her that he wished he wasn't married.. not yet. He told her that he wished his life to have been more easier, a little less complicated.

I knew at that moment.. the woman whom I called faithfulness had not been faithful to him. I knew now he didn't loved her; I thought so. Perhaps he was trapped in a storm & just wanted to get out of it. Perhaps they had a fight. Perhaps they cant live together. They may not be able to understand each other. It may be arranged marriage, I guess. But I cant perceive the situation the way I want, I had to talk to him, but I know it will only upset him. I decided to wait & let him bring this topic himself. Until & unless, he feels comfortable talking to me abt it, I wont talk abt it either.

I was too engrossed in maan when suddenly mumma shook me.

Geet.. khana samne rakha hai.. aap thoda sa kasht karke lunch karogi ya nahi..

Sorry mumma.. wo I was thinking something.. I didn't noticed

Geet.. wait a second.. turm ur face towards me..

I realized my eyes were wet. I wondered what to do. I looked at the glass of water & quickly, without mumma noticing I threw it. Water spilled all over the place.

Oops.. sorry mumma

Kya kiya geet yeh.. see tere kapdo pe bhi pani spill ho gaya.. chal ja ke change karo then lunch karna..

Ok mumma

I quickly escaped from there & then thanked babaji for saving me today.

I was 4 pm & I had to leave for tution. Maan was completely aware of my schedule & so he might be sleeping right now; trying to pass out time without me, as he had put it. Just three hours to go & then he will call me. I was really restless to talk to him, especially after what I had got to know from sunaina today. I wanted to try to ask him some questions, but I was too scared.

I was abt to enter my coaching classes when my phone ringed. I thought it was maan & immediately picked up without looking at the caller id.

Hiii

Hii geet.. such a excited voice! Mere call karne pe..!!

Shit.. I wished I hadn't picked up the call.. not this call. It was prem.

Um, no,., wo,, actually I thought it was someone else.. I didn't read the caller id.. so

Hey hey.. its ok geet.. mujhse bhi agar excited hoke baat karogi to it wont hurt u yar..

Um.. ya.. acha.. mujhe class ke liye der ho rahi hai.. bye..

Wait wait.. have u reached there? I'm just abt to reach there.. wait I'll come to u.. & we'll go together

But..

Before I could say anything, he cut the call. Just after a second or so I felt someone's hand on my shoulder. I panicked & immediately turned around. It was prem.

Aap?

Ya geet.. bola tha na I'm almost there..

Ya.. ok.. so chalein plz.. I'm getting late..

Itni bhi kya jaldi hai geet.. wait na.. mere friends aa rahe hain.. I always go with them.. lets wait for them plz..

Prem.. I think I should go.. what would I do between ur friends?

C'mon geet.. be mature yar.. u r my friend.. they r my friends.. so they r ur friends also na.. we'll go together..

I felt really nervous & scared. I didn't wanted to get involved with prem but I didn't knew what to do.

After 5 mins, I saw maan indicating to some boys who were laughing seeing prem.. or me.. or us? Wait.. what the hell were they thinking?

Hey prem..

Hi vaibhav.. um.. this is geet

Geet.. this is vaibhav my best friend..

Hi geet

I hesitated.. Hi

The way his friends were eyeing me, I could figure out something fishy was cooking up in their minds..

prem.. plz lets go.. I'm getting late..

Ok dear.. chalo..

He tried to hold my hand but I got away & maintained a distance from him. Adrenaline rushed through me when he tried to touch me & I didn't knew what his intentions were. I was just scared.

----------------------------------

Wanted to clear one thing.. as u all said age doesnt matters but mariial status does..

So I very well know marital status does matter.. his wife is not working or something of that sort.. its just that in this story.. maan is a person.. with whom.. not everyone can live.. not everyone can understand him.. but someone who does that.. will know how lucky he/she is to have him in their lives.. so u will soon get to know the probs that occurred b/w maan & his wife.. they didn't even shared a husband wife relationship.. just living under the same roof for few months doesn't matter i guess.. 'coz now they're not even under the same roof.. thats y night shift..
