~CHAPTER TEN~
(Geet's dress)
"You look gorgeous Geet,😳" she gasped👏.
"Thoda...revealing hai...and neckline thoda deep hai...eh...😕"
"OMG😲...Geet Mata...this is not a revealing dress...this is a lehenga😆. Look at me and my skirt, iske saamne tera dress burqa lag raha hai🤣. Ab chup chap khadi re and let me do your makeup."
"What? Please no makeup-wakeup...😕"
"Arre yaar thoda bahut chalta hai, pata bhi nahi chalega.😃"
Geet had to concede, a light brush of blush on her already soft pink cheeks😳, a bit of glittery purple eyeshadow and a stroke kajal to highlight her gorgeous deep amber eyes, a dab of lip colour to finish it off.😳
Dia brought two gigantic balis and Geet staright away rejected them.
"No way...I'm not wearing those ginormous earrings. Mere kaan latak kar hath mein aa jayenge."
"Kuch nahi hoga...accha chal atleast wear these pearl drops, they'll look good with your dress."
Dia wanted her to wear pointed heels but Geet wore a normal heeled lavender shoes.
Suddenly Dia remembered something and said, "Oh God I was so busy making sure you attended this prom that I forgot to get ready myself...pata nahi kaun sa humare class ka idiot mera prom partner hai...in our class all guys are alike-idiots🤢, except you know who" she nudged Geet, who looked at her making face and Dia said, "Maan😳hay na Geet😳," she nudged her so hard that Geet lost her balance and fell on the bed😵.
"Dia...Mental😡...prom ka pata nahin...but lagta hai tu mujhe hospital zaroor pahuncha degi."
"Okay...ab main chalti hoon, will come later."
"Jaldi aana mujhe yeh sab kuch bahut ajeeb sa lag raha hai."
"Haan yaar...aa jaoongi, wait karna mera, and cheer up...this is just a prom, shaadi nahi ho rahi teri...waise rehearsal hi samajh le.😆"
"Dia...bahut zyada ho raha hai😡...ab jaldi jaa yahan se."
After she left, a smile occupied her lips without her knowing😳. She breathed and ran her fingers down her dress to her tummy where she felt the dragon of anxiety breathing fire. She was very nervous. She sat on the dresser stool and looked at herself in the mirror. Her hair was dishevelled. She combed her hair and softly ran her fingers through the shiny black locks remembering Maan's words and checked herself unconsciously. She realised it and brushed the thought off. She gathered her hair into a neat pony tail and tied it with a purple lace.
She walked down to the living room and saw standing there her entire family, her uncles aunties, cousins and everyone else...even the neighbours. She was shocked and embarrassed to see them all together looking at her in all the dress and makeup...which was totally not the earlier Geet.. She didn't what to do, to walk down quietly as if she saw no one, or to run back to her room and hide herself there for eternity☺️😕. They all were staring at her with wonder. Lucky and his gang were the only ones unaffected, busy with their playstation. Pammi bua came running towards her, which stragely made her look like a charging hippo to Geet😆😕, she planted a big kiss on her cheek and hugged her so tight that she let out a squeak.😆😆
"Geet puttar, kitni soni lag rahi hai...bilkul pari jaisi...😳" Other aunties too joined Pammi in praising her, pulling her cheeks, brushing her hair and tucking her dress.
Her nani had tears in her eyes😭 cuz she was seeing Geet like that for the first time in her life.
"Nani?? Aap kyun ro rahi ho?"
"Meri choti si Geet itni badi ho gayi hai...these are happy tears bache...Accha yeh sab chodo and yeh dekho main tumhare liye kya layi hoon."
She took out a box and opened it to reveal a beautiful gold bangle decked with precious stones.
"Teri shaadi pe doongi socha tha par pata nahin tab tak main rahoongi yaa nahi..😭"
"Nani??? Please aise mat boliye😕" she looked at her mum as if asking why did she tell everyone. She didn't tell anyone actually, nothing could be kept a secret in their family.
"This is a gift for you to tell you how precious you are to me and all of us."
She then utaroed her nazar...Nani slided the bangle into her hand, Geet touched her feet and hugged her since she didn't wanted to hurt her sentiments.
"Nani aap toh meri Ms Universe ho...and aap mujhe chod kar kabhi nahi jaogi...kabhi nahi."
Geet found the entire family excitement a lot weird, but she went with the flow since she wanted to appear rude.
Lucky wasn't happy at all😡, especially at the idea of his enemy taking his sister to prom.😡 He even tried to spill sharbat on her dress, but Bua ji handled him appropriately. Maya and Ramesh looked at each other proudly and then at their lovely daughter who looked like their princess.😳😳😳
Scene 1: Geet's room
Evening, Prom day
Geet sat next to the window, looking out at the evening sun. There was a mild breeze which brought a tender smile on her beautiful face.
"Geet, abhi tak tayyar nahi hui😲. Tu bhi na...😡chal abhi jaldi jaake dress pehen kar aa."
(Geet's best friend Dia)

She realised the day they became friends that there was no point arguing with Dia, she always had her way, and today was going to be no different. She decided to give it a last chance, but somewhere inside her fear was going to come alive.
She changed into the beautiful lavender dress that Dia had selected for her.😳

Scene 3:
The door bell rings and Geet shoots up from the sofa tucked in between two aunties. Maya takes every one outside through the kitchen door. She then goes to open the door, but Geet stops her remembering what Maan's letter had said
"...I want to see my angel..."
She looks at Maya, who nods and motions her to open the door...
Geet takes a deep breath and opens the door...
"Hi Geet..."
"VICKY????😲" she goes blank.
"Surprise😃I am your prom partner...and I'm so glad you liked all my notes..."
"Tumne😕??? Mujhe...???...but...Maan..." she was completely shocked.
"Maan?? Woh toh bas meri help kar raha tha, so that I could surprise you."
She suddenly felt lifeless, her body went cold and numb like a dead body. Every thing began to fade before her eyes, and she realised it was never Maan...she simply believed it to be him because unconsciously she always wanted it to be him and no one else. The sudden realisation of truth sent chill down her spine.
Vicky was the class bully, very notorious in school and outside and no girl like Geet could've ever like him.
"Geet...you look really beautiful...ek dum mast," he couldn't control his taporiness for much time. Geet hardly heard him or paid attention to retort.
"Vicky, come in...You wait in the living room, I'll be back in a moment," she said controlling her tears😭
She went into her room followed by Maya and Pammi.
"Woh sab sirf mera weham tha...woh kabhi Maan tha hi nahi...I was so stupid...😭"
"Geet? Beta...you didn't tell us...Vicky is your date???😕"
"Mmm Hmm..." she said biting her lips.
"But Maan??" asked Bua.
"Kya farak padta hai Bua, Vicky or anyone else...it's just a school farewell party or prom...doesn't make any difference...bas jaake attendence lagao and wapis aa jaao...Acha Maa, Bua...I'll leave then. Bye."
Her heart was weeping like a flooded river.
"Vicky, I'm ready, let's go."
He stood up and excitedly walked towards her extending his arm for support, which Geet politely declined.
Ramesh tells Vicky to take care of Geet, and also gives him the strict instructions to bring her back home safely before Eleven O' clock..
"Oh sure Mr Handa, you don't have to worry about her now."
