Nakul made coffee and went to give Maan. Geet followed him. She wanted to thank Maan. Nakul stopped on door and knocked. Then he went inside , saying Geet to wait outside. She waited there then saw nakul came back. She did not get chance to meet Maan. They came back to kitchen.

It was breakfast time. Maan descended and took his seat on dining table. He always had been had his food alone as no one was there to accompany him. And now he was used to it. He dint like any one presence there, near him. Nakul served him breakfast and left. Maan had his food and left to office.
The same men (servants) saw Maan leaving. He got happy. Since morning they were in thought of Geet. They peeped inside and found Geet alone, in kitchen. She was still in her same suit as she had no cloth to change. She was not fully aware of her condition as was busy in work. She did not see that servants were looking her from behind. She had her duppata on but it was not proper covering her back which had small torn, and her small skin was visible to them. One servant went out and called two more men , saying “ oyee… she is alone there.. chal chal dikhaata hu ” like she was some exhibition thing.. two more men came in kitchen.
At same time Maan came back in km, forbidding his some files. He went to his room and came back down. He was going toward car when found, his guard was missing. He asked other guard and been informed he was inside mansion. Maan angered as on one was allowed to go in mansion, except his some loyal servants. He went inside and boiled more , seeing all were crowed in kitchen .. looking Geet..
“ Kya ho raha hai yaha ” his roared voice, filled every one with deadly fear.. they all never expected Maan to come back. They all shocked and started shivering and then Geet came to know , on how much risk was there too, inside mansion.. she covered her duppata, guessing , she was the reason of all gathering and Maan anger made her shiver too.
“ Nakul !! ” Maan shouted. Nakul came running, thinking what happened. “ji sir” he asked
“abhi inn sabko bahar nikaalo ” he ordered and then turned to Geet.. “ you come in my room ” saying he left.. Geet saw nakul , asking if she should go or not. Nakul nodded and Geet followed Maan.

Maan reached his room and waited for Geet , who was coming like turtle. “ will you come fast.. I dont have whole day for you ” he shouted. She run to him. Now she was standing in front of Maan. “ why dint you change your dress ?? ” he asked loud, crossing his arm on his chest.
“ I dint have one ” she said meekly, scaring with his anger.
“hmm” he said and went to his cupboard. He opened it and took out a thin shawl. Gave to her and said to wore this until she gets any proper dress. She took shawl and wore around her, feeling secure now, from all lusty eyes. She looked him with tears and said thank you.
“hmm.. now go ” he ordered. She left. It was not that he liked her or cared her but he felt bad for her and for her condition. Somewhere being her orphan, was made him adverted toward Geet. He could feel what she might have been be feeling, alone, without her family and shelter. These made him concord to help her. He came out from his thought and saw she was leaving.
“suno ” he called
“ji ”
he handed her 1000 rs and said “ buy new dress” and left for office. She looked his blurring figure and then her hand, which had money. She felt it something new. She never had felt this much money in her hand. It was like her dream came true.. her eyes got wet. She started smiling and then laugh, like she got whole world in her small hand. 1000 rs.. it means she had lots of money.. she shivered inside with the feel of this one note.. she again looked toward door where her donator had vanished.. she felt thanking him millions time.. she wanted to share her excitement with someone.. she run to nakul..
“nakul bhaiyaa ye dekhao ” she was almost jumping. Nakul saw 1000 note in her hand. He got confused and asked her where did she find this. She told him everything, showing her new shawl also.. nakul knew Maan very well. He understood his concern. He smiled in her happiness.
“nakul bhaiyaa.. where can I find new and beautiful dress” she asked as it was first time she would go shopping on her own. She always wore others cloths, which she used to get in charity. And even she got any new dress, she had to share those with others girls. So this was first time she would wear her own dress.. she wanted to go shopping as fast she could. Nakul told her some good shop address, without thinking, would those shops owner let her enter in their shops..
