Pyar Hua Chupke Se – Part 25

Maan keeps driving for an hour, not knowing where he was going and what was his destination.

He was clueless about everything. After an hour, he gave up and found himself standing in between the barren land.

He came out, to breath, still felt suffocated. He threw his suit in the car, opened all the buttons of his shirt, he still felt suffocated. He ran on the land, then stopped. He stretched his hands in the air and shouted with all his energy “Nooooooooooooooooo”. He slid down on his knees, and at last cried

“Why? Why Geet? Why?” he was in no sense. He was in no sense to understand what happened with Geet. He was over powered by his own grief. Geet was not only his Geet, she had given herself will fully to someone else. “Sirf meri….” He laughed hysterically at his thought. He had gone so beyond in relation. He has given himself completely to her. Still he knew he was hers and only hers. Her cried “But she is not……. Sirf meri nahi… nahi.. nahi” he rubbed his hand on whole ground wiping it. He sat there for long and then left for guest house.

Geet was worried, she sensed something serious. She tried calling him but he never picked. He saw his cell buzzed with “Sir Meri…. Pagli” and he placed it in vibrator and threw the phone far away.

It was late night when Adi received a call from Boss “Adi, I have some important projects to handle in Delhi. And I can’t spend my whole time on this one project. You take over this project from now on.”

“But Sir suddenly” “I don’t want any argument” “Try wrapping all design and paper work from hear in a month and two. I am leaving tomorrow morning.”

“Ok sir…” “And, keep this just to yourself. Get that” “Sure sir”

Next morning 8 am, Geet again tried calling him, he simply placed his phone to the back seat.

“What happened? I know you are upset with me. What is my fault Maan Sir? What have I done, please tell me”

Geet went to office, today she will talk to him in office, clear why he is upset. Is he doing this all to just trouble her. No, she will scold him if he does it for fun. But somewhere she sensed, it was something not fun.

Geet was continuously looking up to see his cabin but the blinds were down

Maan reached home at around 10 am. Kamini saw him “Maan, you are here, so early and suddenly?”

“Why you are not happy?” “Maa-aan” she scolded. But he left for his room, leaving Kamini all confused. This was not Maan in his usual self.

She waited for Maan downstairs. Maan came all ready and was in mood of going out “Maan, now where are you leaving. You have just come beta”

“Mom, I am going to office.” “But Maan” Maan simply left. He was in no sense of what he was doing why he was doing. He simply wanted to absorb himself somewhere and office was the best place.

While Geet on other side “Adi Sir”

“Geet I want all these design and suggestion ready in a week”

But Geet ignored him “Adi Sir… Maan sir is not in today?”

“Why? Why do you need to know? He is the M.D. and you suppose your boss to give detail of M.D. of company to his report”

“No Adi Sir, not that way. Maan sir looked disturbed yesterday”

“Geet, are you busy in observing Maan sir or in your work? Here are other employees as well, none is bothered”

“Sorry Adi Sir”

Adi then felt bad. He knew Geet was sensitive due to her past and thus she worried about all

“Geet, listen. Enjoy your life. Don’t stress about others. OK… Sorry for being rude”

“It’s OK Adi Sir.”

Geet felt helpless, he was not picking her phone.

In Khurana Mansion, Maan returned from office at night around 10 pm.

“Maan” said his Dad in loud voice. Maan looked at him and stopped “What happened. I hear from your Mom, your behavior”

“Dad, office work need little more aggressiveness, if we want to stay on top.” And he left

Maan was about to leave for his room when “Hi Maan” Sameera popped up from other end. Maan blankly looked at her, not even wanting to register why she was here. He just left for his room.

Later, when Kamini entered his room with his dinner plate, he was lost in his files and laptop and drink.

“Maan what’s the matter beta”

“Mom please I am just working. Is that such big issue?”

“Ok, have your dinner” “Mom, I don’t eat so late, you know. Had munched something in office”

Kamini left, thinking maybe it was one of his bad day. But days kept passing by and Maan’s aloofness just increased. He would wake up early, and did rigorous gym of 2 hours, almost sending himself in pain.

Sameera, tried to be friend him, he completely ignored her presence in the house. Dadima, Vicky, Annie, Kamini and Raj, he started cutting off from all. Just formality yes no. Even if he sat for lunch or dinner, he would just have bite or two and leave

“This is not right. There is something very big.” Said Dadima

“Sameera beta. You should try to talk to Maan. You can also come close to him by sharing his pain. Maybe he is not able to talk to us, you can try” suggested Kamini.

But nothing worked. Maan simply kept himself busy. He would be in in Gym and breaking the ice, wooden fat blocks.

It had been 15 days now, and Geet was completely lost case. She did not know what to do. She used to leave office in mid, not caring at all of Adi’s scolding. She would go to his guest house, stay there for long, searching for him. Fix the already fixed house every day. She would fix it and no one was there to mess it up, still she did her routine each day. The house was now full of her time.

At home, people started noticing her becoming lost again. But Why? She was getting all normal, then why sudden. They tried to keep the home environment lively, Nandu, Rajji and Brij.. tried teasing her but her response was gone.

Now it was one month and Geet had almost started skipping her meal. Nothing went under her throat. She started being irregular in office. Adi, knowing her past did not want to get her out of office but her working and being completely nonproductive was troubling him. He tried to talk to Maan. The moment he would say word Geet “Adi, can’t you handle one project.” And disconnect.

Maan has now completely cut off from all, just being dug in office, drink and Gym. His became super discipliner in office. He got big projects in this one month but celebrated none. His life felt empty, nothing satisfied him. Geet was not his, nothing was left in his life, he just wanted to finish everything.

He used to drink and just one thought “Meri nahi hai who.. sirf meri nahi hai.”

“She bore his child.” “What am I ?” “Who am I to her?” “Kuch bhi nahi”

Geet – She started getting depression attack, she ignored her food and her health started deteriorating.  Brij, requested for her long leave. Geet almost lost all her senses.

One side Maan, other side Geet – both were leading the lifeless life.

It had been 1.5 months now and Maan somehow was seating with family. They have stopped interfering now as he would just leave. But that day Kamini’s eye went on the locket in Maan’s neck .

“What is this you are wearing.” Maan ignored “Someone gifted” “Where?”

“In HP” “Remove it immediately. These people from small town does all sort of weird things and you don’t even know the effect.”

“Ohh this may be the reason of change in Maan” added Dadima. Maan just ignored everything these days.

“Maan remove it, now” Maan was least interested in any argument, he took it off “Fine now.”

“Give me, I will throw it”

Somehow his heart was not ready to throw it “I will keep it somewhere, I mean anywhere. Don’t worry now” he simply got up and left

“What has happened to this boy. I simply want to know the reason of my son’s trouble” Kamini felt like crying
