PART 10

Maan:- Don't assume things... we aren't here for HM...

Geet:- As if am interested in that with YOU??? Huh...

she pulled herself away from him and stood leaning..Maan ignored her and stood silently.. praying that he will not have to stay for 7 days here.. Else he might end up doing something bad with the girl...

Already started to plan to wind up the meetings and works just in 2 days if not a single day...

Maan came out from the lift and walked towards the so-called HM suite, while Geet had to follow his long steps as she got scared to get lost in the big corridors... Inserting the key, he opened the door to his room, errmmm their room... and gestured her to go in first..

Geet entered and got lost at the beauty of the Suite... The suite was huge enough like a flat..It had two rooms... She walked the whole suite and admired that ..Maan followed her, the bell boy brought their luggage and then went out, closing the door .. Maan went to sit on the couch...and got himself engrossed in his work..completely unaware of Geet's doings... He wasn't bothered for that at all.. Geet came back to where he was sitting and looked at him feeling irritated...

Geet(ST):- Always boring ... Argghh!!! How am gonna survive with the person for rest of my life...

Maan:- you can divorce me anytime ... and by the way I have told you my stance on this marriage so stop cursing me every now and then... coz your cursing, most of the times are loud enough for me to hear them out ...

Geet was speechless after his sarcastic words.. He looked at her for a while ...when she didn't answer him back, he then concentrated on his work.. Geet sat beside him and decided to have A talk with him...

Geet:- you know, I can't do that ...

Maan:- Do what ???

Geet:- Divorce...

Maan:- you want me to do that ???? I will...

Geet(instantly):- No no... uhh!! Look its not like I want to be in this marriage but I have bounded myself with you and now I can't help it but to spend my rest of life with you...(Maan gave her a glare) I mean, I can't defame my family's name.. their pride... Dadimaa will be heartbroken.. she already feels that she has done wrong..

Maan:- she isn't wrong in thinking that...

Geet(contd ignoring his words):- And Avi... (Maan got angry hearing his name.. and started to get up from the couch.. when Geet stopped him holding his wrist) you, can't always turn your back while I mention his name...

Maan(pulled his hand away):- Look, do one thing ... Take him along with you and get lost from my life...

Geet:- why you hate him so much... what is the poor boy's fault .. If his mother ...

Maan(shouted):- Enough.. !! Don't ...

Geet(sighed):- ok am sorry... I actually don't know abt your past .. Nobody told me .. and I think you will ever let me know abt that matter... But ...I have right to know abt my Husband's past ... Don't I ???

Maan:- No.. you don't have ... I told you earlier.. Don't interfere in my personal matters ...

Geet:- I said sorry...But...

Ignoring her completely, Maan made a call and asked for brandy ... He wanted to calm himself down, before attending the conference the next day... She was eating his head and he decided to have the drink in the noon itself...Geet, was used to his rudeness and ignorance and so didn't bother to wait what he was actually talking on phone and went to get fresh...

she came out and Maan went inside one of the rooms, to get fresh and that's only when the waiter came to deliver his drink...

waiter:- Ma'am sir has ordered this ...

Geet(looked at the bottle confused and took that from him.. he left, she read the tags,ST):- Brandy...yuck!!...At this day time??? He is alcoholic??? I didn't know that ...Geet you don't know him AT ALL...That's true...

she saw he had come from restroom and asked him in loud voice...who was heading towards her...

Geet:- you drink???

Maan(sighed):- yes.. Do you have any issues on that also..It wasn't a quiz... Geet got angry and thought to give him answers in her own ways ...

Geet:- Huh!! Why would I ??? in fact I love drinks .. and this is my favorite brand... I was really thankful to that waiter.. who brought it here... Now I will also enjoy...

Maan had never thought that she-A girl from village could be alcoholic... but he doubted on his doubts of her lies ... As she seemed so confident talking abt her liking towards brandy... He actually was shocked by her audacity,

Maan(ST):- Can't believe!! A girl-who might never been out of HP, drinks ..she is lying.. but she is so much confident on that .. she can't be lying...

Maan(to Geet):- Hang on !!! you drink ???

Geet(was enjoying the stunned look on his face..she eyed the bottle in her hand and said):- yeah ... I love them.. (ST):- yuck I never saw this thing before my eyes ever and he is saying all this .. but I need to convince him to trouble him more... oh!! Am so enjoying this drama...

Maan:- Can't believe...He still was shocked, amused and not at all convinced...

Geet:- Let me have it ..then might you believe...She eyed the thing from corner of her eyes then prayed silently for some escape... But there was none...

Maan(was instant):- wait.. Lets have lunch first .. Empty stomach and and wine aren't good combination... He knew that ... but Geet .. was unaware of the after effects of drinking ...Apart from her filmy gyaan... she had no idea abt them...

Geet:- you have lunch.. I will have this ..

Maan(pulled the bottle off her hands):- If you are forgetting let me tell you.. you haven't ordered this .. I did.. and before that we are going down to have lunch... Lets move down..

Geet looked at him irritated and decided it was ok for the time being ... satisfied with the effect she caused on him with her lies... she nodded but her insides were jumping that she escaped from drinking .. well for now at the least... Geet followed him while he kept the bottle on table before heading out.. she saw the name of the drink and paste that in her mind ...

Lunch was quite boring for Geet... They were having food in the family hall... where lots of ppl were enjoying their food-unlike her-who was looking at the dishes unwillingly..

As there was no paratha in her plate... which she wanted to taste right now, in this chilly weather ... To make herself warm.. but then an idea stuck her mind and she ordered the brandy for herself, shocking Maan to the core..

Maan(ST):- she is so desperate to drink..

He looked away in anger.. Geet noted the anger building inside him and smiled inwardly on her victory... She was loving this irritated face of her hubby Khurrana...

Maan:- you have got the bottle in the room.. Don't drink here..

Geet:- No.. That's your PERSONAL one as you ordered that .. Now this would be MINE .. I will drink whole bottle without your taunts...

Maan realized actually she was taunting him instead abt the bottle and so remained quit.. seething and controlling his anger..

Soon her drink was in front of them and now was the time to perform on her acts of a drinker..

Now, was the time, she was hesitating ... which wasn't missed by Maan... Her hesitations told him that she was faking all the way and was not a girl who drinks ... somewhere that relieved his heart...Heart-which he thought he didn't have... The thought bothered him...but that soon was replaced by her antics...

Geet was finding it very difficult to even open the bottle and once it was done the smell of the drink, gave her nauseous feelings... she glanced Maan-and saw his smirk...

Maan:- Drink Drink... you were so desperate to drink.. Now drink...(That agitated her..She poured the drink in one glass and gulped down the whole glass in a go.. shocking Maan) she sat there for few mints looking down the table..Trying to ignore the effect the drink was giving her...

precap:- Getting drunk.. But who???
