Maan ordered Geet to bring all her work to the conference room for presentation. She set up the conference room with all her paperwork and connected her lappy with the big screen. Still was wondering, how he was directly down to business and same was the case with her friends – his GF is in office after so long and he was directly on business. And that’s what he had exactly intended them to think.
When Maan entered the room, it was all lit. He switched off the lights, making the room completely dark, only the big screen was lighting “Let’s start with the presentation”. Disappointment ran down Geet.
She clicked the enter button to start the presentation and simultaneously there was a click in her heart and she felt his hands wrapping around her waist. She stopped where she was, he placed his one hand on her shoulder and in swift moved turned Geet to face him, his one hand still on her waist, he jerked to pull her closer
“I am sorry. Missed you like hell” came his low husky words as he made his forehead touch hers
“I am fine” she spoke not wanting him to go in guilt, He pulled her more closer to him and placed his finger on her lips, surprising her, making her gasp
“I don’t want to hear that. I want you to miss me the way I missed you. I want you to yearn for me in my absence.” he demanded.
Before she could speak, he said further
“Don’t make me feel, my effect on you is not same as it was earlier”
“Your effect, you know how it is for me” she said in a low voice . He brought his face close to her , lips almost touching hers “Then why don’t I get to hear the complaint of missing me.”
His words and restlessness, all the control that she had held on till now broke, she hugged him tight
“You know it’s so tough, each moment away from you.”
his one hand traveled on her back “why am I hearing it now? Akele nahi kat tee thi ratien, bataya kyun nahi”
He was complaining that she did not complain, what would she say now? She simply tightened her embrace on him
He then said in her ears “I am coming tonight” Geet separated with excitement “really” He smiled, she could see it from the big screen light falling on his face
“I am going on tour a day after, so decided to spend a night with my sweetheart, who I missed a lot though she didn’t miss me” he shrugged, she hit him in the chest. Maan tried searching her eyes in the dark and then snaked his hand up her back, grabbed her head and brought her face closer to him, making her lips touch his “Maa–aan” she hissed and there was a knock on the door.
Maan left her reluctantly “Start the presentation” and he took the seat next to her. There was knock again
“Come in” Shasha came in and then they saw other’s peeping
“Sir, is Geet’s presentation done?”
“No, we are just starting. Why any hurry?”
“Twenty minutes over, just starting?” came pinky’s low giggling voice
“Switch on the lights and everyone in” came his authoritative voice, while Geet was a bit red with shyness.
Pinky, Shasha and Nikki were in.
Maan straightened himself, moved forward and placed his hands on the table, his both hands fingers crossing with each other, looking at the three of them, questioning their entry.
“Sir presentation, Geet your stakeholders meeting in an hour. Pinky got the call.” Shahsa reminded him
“What?” he looked at Geet, surprise written all over his face “You didn’t tell me?”
“When did you let me speak” Geet said in low voice
“Whatever? Start the presentation.” Geet started her presentation and went through the slides then her plans and goals.
“I like it. Sasha what do you say?” “Great work, Geet.”
“Good. But everyone” he looked at all and then stopped at Geet “I expect professionalism at the workplace. Work should not suffer in any case, I will not tolerate that” he looked again at Geet.
“This should not be repeated. You need to keep some gap between internal presentation and external presentation. There was no scope of any change had we not approved of anything” and he left.
Geet kept there feeling sad, he was disappointed in her professionalism but where was her fault. He was the boss and the boss would always lecture and go away.
First friends caught her and then he himself. She got lost in him, and that was all her fault.
“Geet, it’s ok. We would have not come otherwise but had to come. ”
“What was my fault?” She was still sad. He was disappointed in her, was making her feel low
“Geet chill. He is the boss, he talks as per his mood. We are used to it”
Friends cheered Geet up. Later Geet’s meeting with stakeholders went very well and together she got complete funds for the project.
Geet shared the news to all her friends, Adi, Shasha, Pinky, Nikki and John. All were happy for her success on her first project
“Well deserved.”
Maan saw from his blinds and knew her meetings went well and she got all funds approved. It had been an hour and she did not come to tell him. Adi had informed him but he wanted to hear it from her. For his company, it was a very small project but it was her first career achievement.
He then rang her number, it was switched off.
“Switched off??” He then dialed her work number but soon it just beeped.
“Jaan, smajhtee nahi. I got worried, it was your first project. ”
Later when she did not come and he saw that all had settled, he knew she was not going to come. He at last got out of his cabin.
“unnn hnnn” Employees other than the friends group were confused as to why the boss was there in Geet’s seat. He always kept ordering people around. While friends were smiling within.
Geet kept herself busy in her work
“Geet” he said in a low voice but enough for her to listen, keeping his face straight. No response.
He tapped her desk for attention. Now Geet was losing control, she could not make him wait so long. She was about to look up
“Fine” and he left.
“Chale gaye” she made a puppy face. She scolded herself. Why had she shown him this anger? What did she think? He will cradle her anger, like he used to in olden days.
Geet was on the elevator to her apartment, scolding herself “Today he had planned to spend his night here and you ruined it all Geet. This is how one digs their own hole to fall into it.”
She placed the key to unlock the door but realized it was already open. Bright smile adored her as realization dawned on her “He is in” she bit her lip, opened the door and peeped inside her own house to be further surprised. It was decorated for a mini party. The hall was dimly lit with some colored bulbs through the hall. She moved further, lips curving more for a smile, the dining table was decorated with flowers and candles and there was a big card, where ‘Congratulations’ was flashing with shimmers on it. And then she saw a small cake, so beautifully decorated ‘Congratulations Darling’ written on it. It was a very private, cozy arrangement and she knew it was just for them two to celebrate. She roamed her eyes to locate him but could not see him. She moved further to her bedroom when brightness hit the hall and Maan appeared with a big party confetti popper and popped on top of her head “Congratulations!!!”
“Thank-you” she placed her palms on her mouth. He threw the popper and picked her with his both hands on her waist and twirled her around
“Congratulations Congratulations Congratulations”. He placed her down and she hugged him
“I was so worried, I made you upset.”
He laughed as he placed peck on her lips “I have seen the worst Geet. This little attitude can’t even move my happy mood. I am so so happy for you and I am so proud of you”
He then placed his hand on her waist “And yes, am so happy to get a glimpse of my Geet today, guess wali, nakhre wali. she is lost somewhere.” he made a puppy face “Please bring her back to me” she shook her head and pressed her palm on his pouted lips.
They cut the cake, he fed it to her and himself ate from her mouth, tying both her hands in his.
Geet later changed to a baby pink crop top and mini shorts.
Geet was arranging the dinner on the table and Maan standing supporting himself on the door in a slanted manner, his hands crossed on his chest and he was feasting on the site working on the dinner.
“You ordered too much stuff. What do you want to start with” she asked busy opening the packets
“Wahi soch raha hoon, kahan se suru karon.” he said lusting leisurely in her almost open physique.
“Kahan nai, kya. What all you want to eat. I will set up accordingly” she had done unwrapping when she felt his hand wrapping her bare waist and his chin on her shoulder, slightly rubbing his cheeks on her soft one and then taking her earlobe between his teeth “What all should I eat, can’t decide”
“Maa-aan” “hmmm” but he was lost in her closeness and taking in her fragrance. His hand went up her chest inside her loose crop top and he felt her bra
“What’s this? Not fair” he pulled the bottom wire of her bra
Geet smiled and turned to him , unhooked her bra and got it from inside her top through her sleeves
“Hey, how did you do that” “Happy?” she winked “too happy”
He pulled her closer and moved his hand inside to enjoy free access to her curves “unnn” and soon she was picked and thumped on the bed and he was on top of her. She pouted with his manhandling of her
“It’s not going to work babe. You didn’t miss me, so you lose your chance” he tied both her hand behind her back below her hip and dipped his head in her belly pushing his head upward
“Maa-aan, I missed you. Pleeaase” “Now you will miss me” He troubled her by tasting her in all ways, making her wiggle under him, cry for him in pleasure and want and later gave himself to her when she warned him that she will not pick his call while he is on tour.
“You are missing your old Geet, now you see” She removed his top from him first and threw it far, Maan was smiling.
“You just see. Stop smiling” she warned him, and literally tied his hand on the bed post
“Geet stop it, what you are doing. You know I can open it with one pull”
“Don’t even dare, or you know I will not pick your call” she sat on top of him, uff positioned herself to place her bottom on his manhood, killing Maan’s control “Geet stop” but she didn’t listen. Geet enjoyed fully kissing him to her content , nibbling his lips, pushing her tongue inside his, placing kisses all over his face and then slowly moved down to place kisses all over his front, taking her time. Maan would have been able to handle it, what Geet did not realize was her sitting position, and moving here and there to enjoy him. He was losing it.
“Geet, Jaan. stop it please. Don’t force me to open this tiny thing okay” Geet gave one last deep kiss on his lips and then lay down. Maan gave one strong pull and teared, opened her bond and jumped on top of her…… and the night went on….
Two days later, Maan was getting ready for his tour and Geet for office
“I wanted to ask something” “Hmm” he said fixing his tie
“I wanted to ask, woo dadima” he turned and pulled her to him, surprising her
“Make terms with Dadima… it will make my task easier” Geet supported her by placing her hand on his shoulder as his hands were on her waist
“I will win her heart anyways. I am going to work with her for Annie’s birthday. But how does it help you?”
“For me Dadima, Annie and you, all are equally important. And I can’t leave anyone for anyone. With me, all of you are tied together, no option out for anyone, so better make peace among each other.”
“Why do you say so? Dadima is so sweet, I like her so much. I will win her heart. You see, one day we will gang up and gossip against you” he placed peck on her lips
“That will be great. It will make my life easier”
They were having breakfast. “I wanted to discuss my plan for Annie’s birthday. I wanted to know if you want to make it more elaborate or add something”
He looked at her, placing french toast in the fork and then in his mouth “It will be all your idea. Expenditure, you don’t have to give a thought. I want it to be a gift to Annie purely from your side.”
Maan was busy with his work trip and client meetings to other European countries and also busy establishing his office in Australia.
While Geet got busy in the office and in Annie’s birthday preparation. She also involved Dadima, both spent lots of time together. Dadima too adored the way Geet was, with heart and full zeal putting her best in preparation. From booking the exquisite location, to menu, programs, arrangement, party code, dress code, all were done with precision.
Dadima was also making peace, getting the idea that stopping Maan from going to and staying away from Geet won’t work eventually. And she respected Maan enough to not say No to him directly.Geet was a sweet girl who loved Maan immensely. But, still somewhere within, she was looking for an opportunity to know Maan’s childhood. It would also help her to accept Geet with open arms. Or else she knew, there always will be hesitation between them.
****
Tomorrow was Annie’s birthday and she was back in India. Geet was busy monitoring the arrangements. Maan was back from his tour as well.
Next day, Geet had arranged pampering for Annie in the parlor in morning hours.
“Geet, Thank you for doing so much for me. Well tell me the truth, you did this for me or to impress Bhai”
Geet pouted and looked at Annie “Ohh, I am just teasing. Well Geet, I am eagerly waiting to see your arrangements and to show someone how special you make me feel.”
“Who’s that someone”
Annie raised her eyebrows with a smile “Someone special, surprise for you all. You will meet him in the evening”
