Five
She
got another shock in one single day; she wondered what has fate decided today.
She could not utter a single word, she looked at him, his face was still blank,
expressionless, but his eyes gazing at the window silently, said it all. After
his grandmother's death, he was shattered, and more than that he was all alone,
he lost the person he admired as his mother, he could not share his loneliness
with anyone. Geet could not believe it, she was shaken, and she sat there in shock
and after some time she managed to ask him.
'When...?
How...?' she asked in deep voice.
'Almost
a year, by third and last heart attack' he said with same blank expression.
'Maan...I'm
so sorry'' she said but cut off by him.
'Don't
be.'
'I
should have been there for you'
'But
you were not, leave it.'
There
was silence again; both of them were in past, thinking about how their life
changed. There was a stabbing ache in his chest that was making it hard to
breathe and again guilt began to run through her heart, as if they were
combined soul, if one is hurt, the other one is suffering and moaning in grief.
Before two years
It had been wonderful day for geet, it was
her engagement, and she was in high spirits ' happier. Her life changed drastically;
thanks to the person she exchanged her ring with. Finally, the ring ceremony
was over and it was dance party by his family members. It was raining, geet was
standing in the balcony, enjoying her favorite season, the pleasing drops of
rain, rain was always out of the ordinary for her, how she first emotionally
involved to him in the rain, she remembered it and a beautiful smile appeared
on her glowing face and suddenly she felt someone's presence, she thought it
was him, but it was someone else, she turned around to see who was there and
she was traumatized. It was naintara.
'What are you doing here? And how did you
came out from jail?' she asked her in loud voice.' Oh! Geet! Don't you know how
we got out from jail? It was maan, who helped us.' She said in her bitter-sweet
voice. 'No way, I don't believe you. He will never do it. He can't, and don't
try to fool me, naintara!' geet fumed. 'Geet, you still don't believe me? Okay,
ask him yourself then.' She said peacefully. She was enjoying geet's anger. 'I
don't talk with evil people, so just leave me alone' geet said in louder tone,
she tried to left the room, but stopped by her, she blocked her way, 'listen to
me, you poor girl, you can never rule this mansion nor maan's heart, he doesn't
love you, geet. He has just soft corner for you, he is just helping you because
you're my husband's silly mistake, he wants to help you because its question of
our family reputation. He will marry you, no doubt, but just to control you, so
you can never ever do this again, to play with our reputation, I admit that my
husband made a mistake, and I also admit that I wanted money, I admit in front
of you that I'm the one who ruined your life. But geet, one thing you need to
understand is that I'm naintara, you can never mess with me. See I'm giving you
advice ' free of charge. Just leave! Leave from here! Maan does not care for
you. After all who are you? Nothing, And yes if you still stay here, then you
know the accidents are bound to happen with him and you, too. ' she said all
those words in utter peace as if she could go to any extent possible.
Geet did not want to believe her, but she
could not ignore the puzzled thoughts haunting her mind, still she tried her
best to ignore her.
'You know something; I don't believe any
single word of yours.' She said, calmly.
'Okay, don't believe me. You will come to
know when maan will tell you. He called his lawyer; he himself helped us to get
out from jail. Oh! Geet, how did you think that he will choose you over his
family and his reputation? He is simply using you, geet. I pity you, geet. Both
the brothers used you. I feel sorry for you, that is why I'm telling you, if
you self-respect at all, then leave.' She said in her chilling tone and left
smiling bitterly.
Geet could not handle more, she collapsed on
the bed, she tried not to believe her, but it was true, she was right in front
of her. She recalled the night when maan did call the police, actually and how
he beat dev and surrender them to police, then why they were out so soon? She
was total confused now. She wanted to believe him, but the words of naintara
were scratching through her mind. She got up and washed away her tear and
decided to talk to him.
She was coming out from the room and she saw
him, talking on phone with someone.
'Yes! I had to' he said
'But I want you to make sure that she
doesn't get the fact. I don't want her to know about this. I know she will
believe me, but not now after marriage.'
'Okay. Please take care of that. Once I
marry her, then nobody can stop me.'
'Okay bye. Good night'
He cut the call, and saw geet coming towards
him, his face expressions changed; he was shocked to see her suddenly.
'Oh! geet. What are you doing here? Don't you
want to sleep?' he asked, tried to be usual.
But geet was much angry; she didn't answer
and asked in dry voice, 'Did you bail them out?'
'What?'
'Just give me an answer, yes or no?'
'geet''
'maan, yes or no?'
'Listen to me geet, I need to''
'Yes or no'
'Yes.'
That was it, geet could not believe her ears
anymore, she was shocked. She felt betrayed. How could maan do this to her? She
stood there, tried to control her tears, she did not wanted to seem weak before
him, anymore then.
'Thank you so much, Mr.Maan Singh Khurana,
for all your support.'
'geet, what are you saying? I think we need
to talk...'
'...about what? About the fact that you're his
brother and marrying me to have power over me, so that I can take back all my
charges against him, right?' she screamed.
Maan was getting angry by then, he was already
worried and petrified, the only good thing happened to him those days was his
engagement with her, and then she was behaving strangely, he felt guilty for
not asking her before taking such action, but it was needed, there was no time
for that. He tried to control his anger, and again tried to calm her back.
'geet''
'No maan. I don't want to hear anything now,
what you said was far more enough for me.'
They were standing outside the room and they
saw a servant coming their way,
'Sir, the media people is here, wants to ask
few questions to you. We tried to stop them but there are many, we could not
control it. We're so sorry.'
'Useless people, who asked you to let them
in? And where the hell are security guards? Have I hired them for this kind of
blunders?' maan screamed in extreme anger, he started to move right away with
her. But she stopped and went back to the main gate, for addressing the media.
Maan was shocked, he tried to stop her but she walked away.
'Hello Miss geet, would you like to tell us
something about your marriage? How do you feel when you know the fact that dev
singh khurana is your fiance's younger brother? Does that mean that you will
take all your charges back against him?' reporters asked so many questions in a
minute.
She took a deep breath and clutched her
hands tightly and said,
'No. there is no chances that I'm taking
back what I said earlier, I'll fight. No matter what! I'll fight alone, I don't
need anyone's support anymore' with that she gave him a stern look.
He was upset, but he could not say anything
to her in front of media.
'Does that mean you're breaking off with
Mr.Maan? Someone asked from the crowd.
Before geet could answer the question,
security guards came quickly and tried to control the media crowd.
'That was it. Thank you' said maan and took
geet's hands and walked away, with the help of guards.
'What the hell was that, geet?' he yelled.
'Do you have any idea what have you done?'
he continued.
'Why? Feeling bad? That I now know the
fact.' She replied in fury.
'Oh! I think you don't know that I'm Maan
Singh Khurana. You cannot hide anything from me. What is there in your mind,
geet?'
'Oh! Please. You're not god. Okay? So please
don't give me that attitude, and yes I did not know that Mr. so called Maan
Sigh Khurana is a big fat liar' she screamed.
'What? What did you just said? Am I liar?
What I've done geet? Just tell me, okay now you want to talk. Come on bring it
on.' That was it, she provoked maan, and he held her shoulders tight. Being a
Maan Singh Khurana, he could never tolerate that someone would call him a liar
and especially when that someone is his own fiance, his life.
'Just leave me; it hurts. I don't want you.'
she said in pain and pushed him hard, and he almost fell on the table beside
him. He saw her in awe; he could not believe that she did that to him.
'Oh! Do you know something?' he asked her in
doubt, and then he moved forward to her.
'One day. Just one day in this city without
me, my name and my help, prove yourself, and I can show you how much you need
me, how much you want me. Just simple one day.' He said, furiously.
She stood there shocked. He stood there
shocked. He just realized what he said, he felt guilty. He regretted his words.
Maan tried to calm himself down, he took a deep breath and began to talk to her
and suddenly he got a call.
'Yes...oh...!'
'Okay...I'm coming right now. Be there.' he
said in worry.
He again tried to act peacefully; he tried
to control his anger. He took another deep breath and continued,
'Geet, I have to go right now, but I still
think that everything can be handled easily, just stay here, I'll come and
we'll talk for sure. Okay?' he asked and he left worriedly, leaving her shell
shocked.
***
It was raining heavily that night. He came
late, by midnight. He was very much stressed and tired, after all the drama and
fight with her; he came into her room, expecting geet to be there. But she was
not there. He thought she might be in his room, to say sorry. On his way to his
room, he tried to make a speech, about how to say sorry to her, he walked fast
and entered the mansion, he did not find her anywhere, he walked up to his
room, expecting her to be there, finally. He did not find her in his room, too.
He sat there nervously, he loosen his tie a bit and stretched his arms. And he
saw a note on the table, with a diamond ring, his heart missed few beats. He
reached out to the piece of paper and read it,
Maan,
I know everything is not fine now. And
nothing will be fine, and you know this very well. You can't change the fact
that dev is your brother and will be your brother, neither can I. It's a mess,
maan. I can't do this, so I'm leaving, I don't know where but trust me, I'll be
fine. This is the ring you gave me, I can't take it. I can't take the burden
with me anymore. And please you promise me that you will never ever follow me,
you will never search for me. I'll be fine where ever I'll be. I think some
stories are never meant for happy ending and I'm considering my one in that.
Please take care of yourself. Bye. Do not try to find me, don't force me,
please keep my last promise, I hope I'll never see you again.
Geet
He stood there - lifeless.
She left him.
Geet left Maan.
He could not absorb the fact, he, then took
her ring, he immediately removed his
one and removed he taviz she gave him. He
throw everything on the floor, he switched off the lamp and lay on the bed,
staring inanely at the ceiling.
***
After few days, he came to the room, opened
a closet and took out both the rings along with the taviz; he tied the rings in
the thread and wore it again, and stood in the balcony for countless hours,
staring at the moon.
***
Another night, he tried to remove the silver
thing placed in his neck, but he failed.
