RECAP:
Geet head takes
one full spin around the room, her heart skipping a beat. Her heart felt like it was racing away
from her! But then why were their new fresh tears making its way down her
cheeks?
Her accusing
words echoing and spinning round and round inside her head, "What are you
trying to hide from me? What is in there that is so personal to you for which
you can't share with me?" making her stumble back against the pole as she took in
everything silently and torturously. "Do you even hear yourself" his echoing words
pierced through her, making her body crumble and legs buckle to the ground.
"kya hoga ya mujhse" she says so frustrated with herself!
"Why do I keep
messing up" her voice faint.
"I'm trying to
figure things out, I really am Maan" she whimpers.
" I . . . I hid
it from you because . . . because it would raise the question of how I got the
burns and. . . and I just didn't want to hurt you anymore" she runs both hands through her hair, and then scrunches her hair in
frustration as the throbbing pain started to run through her body. All the
while not being able to hold it in any longer, the tears started to drip and
drip from her face as her mind replayed her a flashback.
**Flashback**
~Back at the beach house earlier that
same day~
"I'm . . .I'm
going to go for a swim. There is still a little time left before Nakul gets
here with some clothes" Maan says getting up from the kitchen table.
Maan could see
the concern in her eyes as she heard the word "swim", but she didn't say
anything and let him go.
It got so quiet
and lonely when Maan left for his swim.
She decided to make some more Pasta for Maan, since not only did she eat
most of pasta, but when he comes back from his swim he would surely be
hungry. She heads over to the
kitchen and takes the oil, pouring it into the pan and turning on the stove.
Suddenly Maan's
words started to really dawn on to her, "You will have to figure out what Love
is on your own. You will have to figure out why you feel attracted to me. You
will have to figure out why surrendering to me last night felt so good. . .so
right. I have always helped you so far, but not this time. This time you will
have to find the answers to your own kashmakash brown eyes. And yes you will have to find those
answers. I won't let you run away from them" and that's when her eyes fell on
the telephone near the stove.
She slowly and
hesitantly approached toward it.
She grabs the phone and with shacking fingers manages to dial the
number. Her heart was already
racing and her hands shacking all the more with the increased nervousness.
Geet suddenly
hangs up! She couldn't do it. Her heart was scared for more than one reason.
She tries to
distract herself by getting the box of pasta from the cupboard. When she comes back near the stove her
eyes fall on the phone again.
"Geet! Stop
being a chicken! You need to figure things out so then why are you stopping!"
she talks to herself.
She grabs the
phone and dials the number with no hesitation this time. But when she hears it
ringing again, the nervousness came back and this time ten fold. In order to
distract her hands from not be able to hang up she places the phone on her
shoulder and tilts her head to hold the phone in place, while her hands held
the box of pasta.
Just when she
opens it she hears his voice, "Hello" and the box of pasta slips from her
fingers spilling all over the floor.
She hangs up and was so lost in the heat of the moment that when she bends
down to clean up all the pasta from the ground her hand bangs on the handle of
the pan and all the burning hot oil spills over her back.
She screamed and
yelped from the anguish of the seeping pain, but at the same time Geet was
greatful that Maan was too far in the water to hear her.
**End of flash back**
"How could I
tell you that I tried calling my husband? And because of my cowardliness I
ended up burning myself? Kaise!" Geet winces and closes her eyes backing her
head against the pole.
"It's my special
room" his voice rang through her mind.
She opens up her
eyes and starts to look around the room, his special room, once more.
"And on top of
that you made me think so bad about this special room of yours. I don't think there is anything else
that could make me feel more cheaper than I do right now" she clenches her
teeth in disgust with herself.
She gets up to
leave when her eyes fall on the so called "Pole".
" I spoke too
soon" she sucks in her breath sharply as another lonely tear cascaded down her
face.
The grip of the
sheet over her shoulders got tighter as she took in the sight that was above her.
It was never a
pole but one of the pillars that held a huge painting of her. . . of her EYES!
Right next to it
was a plate that gave the meaning of his painting.
I fell for your forbidden eyes!
Now my eyes are Blind.
Without you darkness is all that lies,
Your love is the light for which I pine.
~Maan singh khurana
Geet covers her
mouth in shock and as realization hit her hard.
"Instead of
trying to understand what was this feel and attraction between us, I tried
taking the short cut for which I got burned physically, and i burned your heart"
"You. . . You
weren't even watching me dance. . you. . . you were—" she stops as he remembers
his words, "I don't have an interest in seeing you strip and dance for me"!
"You were
looking above at the painting" she gasps in awe of his blind love.
But then she
fills with anger, just not for herself but because of Maan.
His blind love
for her was driving her insane!
"Who does he
think he is! This is pure insanity! What is he made out of! What is his heart
made out of" she wanted to scream!
His painting of
her and only her surrounded every inch of this room!
"How can he love
me so much" she falls on her knees feeling bad not for herself but for Maan.
She holds her
head back up and starts to wipe her tears away.
"I will forget
that I am married for some time! He is the one that left me toh theek hai! I
won't hold myself back anymore. I
won't feel guilty! And I am going to give Maan a chance. Myself a chance to see
who I am in love with! You hear me
DEV!" she says with igniting eyes of determination and confidence and walks out
of the room.
Maan was still
tossing and turning in his bed. He let's out a big sigh seeing how long both
him and Geet have to go. His heart
became heavy with the thought of him running out of time. Geet is so unstable with
what she is going through. She
doesn't even know if she can trust herself, so then how can she put her trust
on others. Even if her answer is right in front of her she won't know whether
to trust it or not. She doesn't
know whether her heart is telling the truth or lying. And he knows who exactly
the culprit is here. Maan is so
close to putting the person who said Love is the best thing that can happen to
a person behind bars for his lie! That idiot doesn't even know what he is
saying!
"Ughh! What the
hell am I thinking" Maan says running a hand through his hair.
Maan: I am
losing my mind! Maan Singh Khurana is losing his mind and that too for a girl
who would ever thought such a day would come.
Just then Maan
hears footsteps. He closes his
eyes and acts as if he is sleeping.
Maan felt
someone sit on the bed inching close to him. A sweat smile formed on her lips, seeing how innocent he
looked in his sleep.
"Mein tumse
bahut naaraz hoon sexy hypo" she whispers looking at his sleeping form.
"What! Why is
she mad at me! I am still not done being mad at her" maan thought to himself.
"Why did you
come into my life now? Why now sexy hypo?" she expresses wanly.
Maan remained
numb. This was not what he was
expecting her to say.
Geet: I wish you
came before he did and maybe this wouldn't have to be so complicated. I
wouldn't have to keep hurting you like this.
"Pata hai, you
are everything I dreamed of my rajkumar being" she lightly chuckles.
"Actually your even sexier. After all you're my sexy hypo" she smiles and laughs through her welled
up eyes of tears.
" I don't know
whether what I feel for you is love, but I am going to truly figure it out for
you. I owe you at least this much" she says wiping away her tears and smiling.
"I don't know
what's gotten into me. I always seem to cry" sniffling as she laughs an empty
laugh.
" I don't know
what I am saying or why I am here right now talking to you when you are
asleep. I never meant to hurt you
tonight, I was only trying to protect you" she says getting lost in his face.
Her hand
unconsciously moves toward his face and moves a strand of his hair back. Maan fought so hard with himself at
that very much from not snatching her wrist and pulling her closer. A part of him wanted her to vent out
what she had to say that she was keeping inside her for so long. He was not going to lie, but he was
liking this moment very much. Her
words were so comforting to his heart, putting back together his hopes. Her
words were so pure and straightly coming from her heart.
"Hosake to mujhe
maaf karo sexy hypo. Forgive your
brown eyes please" she whispers so close to his face.
Before she could
stop herself she plants her lips right against his cheek.
"Goodnight sexy
hypo" she weakly smiles and gets up to leave. There was no guilt, no hesitation, no justification for why
she just kissed him. Neither did
she owe Dev an explanation nor herself. She did what she felt like doing at
that moment. There was no need of
trying to dissect a reason for why she did it. She was passed all that now.
Once Maan heard
the click of the door he jolted up from his bed. He touches his cheek with his hand and was flying over the
moon with the rush of sensations that her one touch zipped through him.
" If you said
this while I was awake I would have pinned you with my body and hold you
captive all night. The best part
would have been that you wouldn't stop me! But I am not going to do that. I am not going to let you off the hook
so easily. Be more creative
sweetheart. Let's see what you
come up with to cool your sexy hypo's raging temper down" he slumps back into his
bed, his signature crooked smile playing on his lips.
