Why Maan didn't trust his Daddi atleast..? May be he was hurt that Daddi made him scapegoat to hide Dev's deeds and he was not ready to listen what ever truth was...Except Daddi no one dared to tell him..
Maan was helpless in front of Daddi's threat..She loved her grand kids more than her life. May be she was helpless in front of Geet when she blackmailed Daddi ...As child was Khuraana's its quite possible Daddi loved her and so threatened Maan not to take any decision against Meet
He felt like if Daddi did this much to save Dev...she could do anything..? Also it was beyond his imagination when Daddi loved him so much why she ruined his life...He was angry but couldn't lose her.
What ever was the reason his subconscious was not ready to accept anything ..But he left with no other option to keep Meet in KM..But how Naintara succeeded to portray as victim of Dev's doings in front of Maan...How she gained sympathy from him...? That was matter for worry to Daddi..
Daddi also knew he did this intentionally to keep NT in KM just to do totally opposite what Daddi and Dev did to him..It was like a protest..Much familiar to NT's evil tactics she appointed Laxmi for Meet's upbringing. Savitir Devi shifted to outhouse. She couldn't bear how Maan permitted NT to stay in KM. Also gave joint custody of Meet to her.Even after Daddi's protest because he wanted to get rid of child ..on other hand was helpless in front of Daddi.
Nandini decided to be with Daddi at least she could stay close to her niece to keep eye on NT...Even if NT banned her entry in KM.
Naintara had her eyes on whole Khuraana property legally who belonged to Meet only. Because before memory lose Maan had made Geet 51% partner in his property...But while making will according to Geet's wish he put a clause that their kids ll own everything after reaching their legal age .
Now he was surprised why he did so...? Nothing was in his hands now Everything was for little girl.NT was living aristocratic life on the earning coming from property. As Guardian money was in her hands.
for Meet's upbringing...And Maan didn't bother about any matter in three years.
Daddi's health never allowed her to look after Meet so she only relied on her trust worthies Nakul and Laxmi..But NT never allowed Laxmi to take Meet to Outhouse in Nandini's presence.She didn't take risk that ever Meet's form any bonding with Nandini..As it could be dangerous for her evil intentions
Mostly NT spent her time being with her friends.Throwing and attending late night parties. Shopping.It was not possible for her to be on outdoor trips As to keep her image clear in Maan's eyes as a responsible mother like figure to Meet.So this was her way to live life.But she was happy.
When Meet was around one .She started to walk.Her innocent acts.Her smile was there left in KM which reminded of Nakul and Laxmi those old wonderful days they lived with this family...That Family they served from generations
On other hand NT's hatred toward little girl was raising day by day as she was replica of Geet...But she couldn't express in front of Maan...In her absence she scold her...She even slapped her..How a little girl could express her pain except crying..For little time Laxmi kept mum but when things went over her head.She told everything to Daddi Maa and Nandini.
Once again Maan ignored Daddi's complaints against NT...Nandini left with no other option she filed custody case against NT for Meet.Being ignorant Maan dragged his feet out of this matter.He himself wanted to get rid of child with any reason.This time Daddi also thought it was right for the safety and better future for Meet.
After two year long battle..Being most close relative to Meet and evidence of Maan's memory lose on which basis he denied to accept Meet as daughter.. Also Daddi's statements...Court granted sole custody of child to Nandini.
It was weekend ahead and few days were also needed in paperwork when officially Nandini could take Meet's custody. NT turned out to be insane on her lose.She couldn't digest this.How she could see everything going away from her hands.For which she crossed her limits.
"If I ll get nothing...What matters Nandini defeated me.Still I can't let her go this much easily.This child is of no use to me..But yes to take final revenge I ll use her " her evil mind had panned something big..
" Meet was the sole reason for my stay here.Even she was the reason for whom Geet decided to take stand against her family.She met Maan. Won him love...changed Dev and kicked her (NT) out of Khuraana family." In agony she screamed
First she decided to kidnap Meet for property but she knew it could be dangerous for her.It would force Maan to think on what Daddi told him And then for Daddi's sake he would cross every limit to catch her.
So she changed her plan if not property..Atleast Nandini had to payback for her deeds.. When Nandini was out.Silently she dared to take Meet to OH terrace.. Daddi was in her room.But NT thought she was also out too..
She planned to kill child dropping her down from terrace and put whole blame on Laxmi's ignorance..
When Laxmi found Meet no where in KM it worried her.She searched every where.NT was not aware gardner Ramu observed her.While she was taking crying child in hurry toward OH Trying to shut her mouth with her hand.
When he found something fishy..He informed Laxmi ...Nakul phoned Nandini ...Daddi Maa also come out of room when she heard Laxmi calling Meet's name loudly...She searched every where in OH.
When she heard some noises from terrace.She climbed upstairs but door was locked from outside.She beat door helplessly.NT had marked her presence so there was no other option left for her to satisfy her ego before being caught
Daddi understood NT's intentions.Meet's life was in danger.She did that what she never in three years.Rang Maan .He was in meeting.So phone was on silent mode...Addi noticed Daddi's number flashing again and again on Maan's phone.
"Sir please pick the phone Daddi Maa is calling from long ...something is defiantly serious.."he whispered near to Maan's ear.
Maan was surprised to extreme Daddi called him first time in three years.
When she never spoke to him..He rushed to take call outside "Daddi Maa everything allright ...aap theek to hai.."worried Maan asked "Maan betay agar aap apni Daddi per aapko itna sa bhi yaheen hai jaldi aa jaea OH ...Meet ki jaan khtre main hai..NainaTara took her to terrace and has looked door from other side .." she cried out loud..
"Daadi don you worry main aa raha hu aabhi " Maan put phone back in pocket and much disturbed ran toward his car. Coincidentally his meeting was at the distance of just minutes away from KM..Addi chased him...Nakul informed police too..
AT OH terrace...
NT slapped poor girl numerous times..little creature was crying aloud.She was moving back ward to terrace fence as NT was getting close to her. "Naina Aunty peeez Meet ko mat maaro...peezzz" she was sobbing.. Shivering much scared ..
No space was left behind to move backward.Her back was against fence. What was happening that was visible to all who were yelling to show some mercy on little girl from NT...Begging her for Meet's life...
When Maan reached there he also witnessed whole drama.He had no time before something wrong happened.It could be more dangerous for Meet if he asked NT to spare her.
So he took KM garage's way...just next to OH and reached terrace climbing high walls.
"Naintara chod do Meet ko barna bahut bura hoga..kyo kar rahi ho yeh sab tum is choti se bachi k saath " Maan gave first and final warning from behind.
Naintara could not believe what she heard. How Maan reached there ? She turned back.He was really there in front of her.His eyes burning with anger.His facial expressions were enough to tell her end was near.
He was not in state to thing else more than Meet's safety but some where he was feeling..his decision to keep NT in KM was wrong what ever reality was ..
"Burra !!! aur kya burra hoga..sabh to challa gaya...us Geet ne sabh cheen liya..Jaate jaate isko chod gayi " in a jiffy she grabbed Meet's tiny wrist tightly dragging her..
" I thought if not everything but staying here I ll get something being her guardian...But Nandini she snatched that dream too...this girl is of no use..If not for me ...then not for anyone" she turned out to be insane when she jerked Meet..
"Papa ..peeez ask Aunty not to beat me...It is paining Meet..." She sobbed aloud with tiny ray of hope..finding her father there even he never loved her...Maan's heart ached.How he was behaving with poor creature just three years old...Still she trust him to fullest..That her Papa was going to save her..
" Dekho Naintara aakhri baar keh raha hu...chod do Meet ko.." Maan stepped toward NT..
"Nahi Maan Veer Ji..aagay mat aana...warna isko main neeche fenk dungi.." she picked Meet and put her on fence...
" Tum pagal ho gayi ho..is bachi ne kya bigaada hai tumhara...isse mujhe de do.." he again asked but NT was firm on her decision..When she found lots of people gathered in courtyard..Screaming out loud for Meet's life.Even police was there.She judged no one could save her now...She pushed scared girl backward but before she fell "Meet..!!! " Maan screamed..
He grabbed Meet from wrist.She was hanging from roof with wrist in Maan's hand.
Until police man also reached at roof through same way Maan climbed .NT tried to free Meet's wrist from Maan's grip to drop her down...But she couldn't Maan pulled her up..
One police Man opened door and other stopped NT from escaping..
"Meet meri bachchi...Geet..Geet kuch nahi hoga tumhe.." breathing heavily he took almost unconscious child in his strong hold of his arms
Daddi,Nandini, Laxmi ,Nakul all reached at roof . Laxmi took Meet from Maan.But next moment all found Maan dropping down to floor. He fainted mumbling Geet and Meet's name " Naintara chod do Meet ko... Geet tumko kuch nahi hoga.."
Police dragged NT down at a arrested her.One servant called doctor..
Meet and Maan's condition was enough to bring panic attack to Daddi.. Some staff working in KM brought Maan downstairs to OH...Nandini put Daddi Maa on bed..According to Doctor...Meet was shock and hoped she would regain her senses soon.
But Maan he was restless.Breathing heavily ,rubbing his feet on bed.He was continuously repeating Geet and Meet's name again and again.When he regained his consciousness everything had been changed.This incident reminded him of that party when NT tried to kil Geet pusing her down..but he saved her.
His memory was back after long wait of three years.
" Meet...Meet kahan hai...mujhe uske paas jaana hai..." he was feeling giddy but got up from bed.Pushed Nakul and Vishal when they tried to stop him.Assured him that Meet was safe.But they couldn't stop him Then Vishal took him to other room where Meet was in Nandini's arms conscious but too much scared...Hiding her face in Nandini's bosom gripping her tightly..
"Ji Ja Ji aap..yahan aap theek to hai " amazed Nandin asked.She got up from bed holding Meet as such..
"Nandini mujhe meri Meet de do..sab yaad aa gaya hai mujhe..."crying bitterly he took Meet from Nandini when he himself was hardly able to fix feet on floor.
Finding her self in her father arms.Meet felt more secure.She trust him like her mother trusted Maan " Papa peeez pick up Meet...Naina Aunty ne mujhe marra fir girra diya..." sobbing she encircled her tiny arms around Maan's neck..
"I m sorry beta...Your father is culprit...but first of all your Mom's and yours .." kissing her her grabbed her .Tears were rolling down from his over flooded eyes.
When Daddi entered room with support of Laxmi she witnessed all.
Overwhelmed she couldn't believe it was reality in front of her.."Geet ko yakeen tha k ek din Meet he wajah banegi aapka yaheek wapis laane mai...un per (Geet) ..apno per..Per is tarah kabhi nahi socha tha..Kushi kahe isse ya sabse bada dar k agar hum Meet ko kho dete aaj..."wiping her tears she came near to Maan...
" Daddi..I am a devil...Yes I am...apni he wajah se aaj aapni maasoom bachi kho deta main..." he hugged Daddi pouring his heart out..Like a child...Still holding Meet ..Who hid her face in Maan's chest much scared.
Daddi rolled her hand over Meet's back then kissed Maan on forehead..
"Per Daddi aap jaanti hai na main soch bhi nahi sakta k main apni family ko aise hurt karu...especially Geet " In guilt he tried to assure
"To hate Meet...my own child ..it beyond imagination.I did whatever happened after my memory lose..Apne gusse ki aag main maine apno per yakeen na kar..NainTara per yakeen kar liye...How could I "He was crying bitterly...When he found Meet trying to grab him more and more tightly much afraid .As loud acceptation of his sins (which he did unintentionally) made her more scared..He put a grip on his emotions..
"Meet dekho beta...Papa is with you...I will punish Naina Aunty .."kissing her he tried to calm her down..
She raised her head up ...Looked at her father who was smiling with lots of love in his eyes..Then again hid her face in Maan's chest..Peeped around from corners of her eyes...Which convinced her she was safe.
She found Laxmi standing at little distance..She turned her face toward Laxmi " Lacchi (as Meet addressed Laxmi ) Meet ko Miss k pass jaana hai...Lacchi meri Miss ko bollo na Meet ko darr lag raha hai " she sobbed raising her arms toward Laxmi..
All were surprised with her this act...Daddi and Nandini knew Meet called her play school teacher as Miss...But Maan he didn't know anything even staying with little girl under same roof..
"Miss...Miss kon beta...Papa hai na aapke saath...dekho Badi Daddi... Nandini Maasi ...Lacchi Aunty sab hai yahan...fir aapke pass fir aap kyo darr rahe ho.." he said lovingly..
Meet ignored what her father said.She was firm on her words "Lacchi Aunty ...Miss ko bollo " with loud hiccups she was repeating same...
"Maan betay Meet apni play school teacher ko Miss bolti hai.." Daddi cleared his confusion..
"Baby I ll take u to Miss tomorrow..Papa promise u.." he tried to assure her..
But she didn't want to listen anyone..So Maan got ready...He was surprised why she was this much obstinate to meet her Miss when whole family was around her...
How could he give more pain to his child.Who got her father's love after three years. When he had lost his life..His Geet...He got ready to take Meetto her Miss house.."Where are you Geet..? Please come back to me.. . please trust me once...if not for me but for our child " her heart cried out around in agony...
He asked Laxmi to accompany him as she knew where Meet's teacher lived..or to call Miss to come here.But Laxmi said it was late evening so it might be difficult as she had no car..
Laxmi's face turned pale...She was not willing to tell Maan where Misslived . But she couldn't see Meet in such grief " Chote saab...you are not well.. main le jaati hu na Meet Baby ko.. Deepak k saath car main.."she took Meet from Maan..
"Nahi Laxmi.I can't leave my child for a while away from me anymore Her every wish ..Her every word is last for me..If she wished I ll take her by myself..." Maan denied Laxmi's proposal..
"Maine kaha na Chote Saab main baby ko le jaati hu.." nervousness was clearly visible on her face.Which Maan noticed.
Even Daddi felt odd why she was behaving so ? " Laxmi let him take Meet...I know he is not well...But Deepak will drive car..."Daddi asked..
"Nahi Daddi Maa wo ..." she was sweating..
"Baat kya hai Laxmi ? Why you are opposing me to go there?" Angrily Maan questioned
It scared very simple lady ..Who was ready to do anything for this family.. How she looked after Meet it was really appreciable .But when things changed in positive way after much suffering.Then why Laxmi was making her image wrong...
She wiped her eyes "Chote saab aapko jaana hai na .Wahan aap jaaea Aapko aapke har sawal ka jawab mil jaaega.." with this she also told him the address
"Laxmi Maan ne sidha sawal kiya hai ? Per tum kya paheli main baat kar rahi ho...Bas Meet ko he milwana hai na uski Miss se.Fir tum aisa kyo behave kar rahi ho.." annoyed Daddi asked..She knew how loyal and caring Laxmi was .So had no doubt but why she was talking in riddles?
For this Laxmi gave no answer and also asked them to accompany Maan. As Maan was unstoppable now...Till than Addi arrived..He looked at Laxmi suspiciously..They gazed each other for a while ..But then followed Maan.
Holding Meet..Maan sat in car .Instead of Deepak..Addi offered himself to drive.
In other car Nandini took Daddi and Laxmi at the given address...Laxmi was restless through out the way.But kept mum..
Meet slept in her father's arms ,But if she wished something Maan had to fulfil that. So they were on their way to Miss's house...They parked their cars at a little distance from house.As the streets were not that broad to bring cars in front of house..
In stead of Laxmi...Addi rushed toward door...Like he was much familiar to area..Even Maan observed he was also tense through out the way.There was not an exchange of single word.When it was hard for Addi to be silent for long...
All followed him..He gave a knock at door...No response he again beat door..
" Kehda (kon) pagal hai ...mera darwaaza todna hai kya..." a very known feminine voice all heard from outside before some one opened door..
Who was there on the door..All rooted to spot...Speechless...Geet was there..Yes she was...But she didn't observed all behind."Addi Sir aap is time !! Aur kya ho gaya jo mera door todd rahe ho ? Maan k spoiled mood ka asar to nahi hai..." bit surprised she giggled aloud...
How comfortable she was while in conversation.It was clear they were in touch and Addi's sudden appearance put no effect on Geet. Instead she was laughing...
"G..ggg Geet ...Maan Sir...wo peeepeche..." he diverted her attention toward whole family standing still looking at her.Struck dumb they couldn't believe she was really Geet...
Meet was in Maan's arms.Sleeping resting head over his shoulder.. Nandini Daadi and Laxmi with him.How this was possible...it took them unawares. "Geet" all said in one tone...
Words failed her.Nothing to say.She couldn't go back or move forward..If she was dreaming with open eyes ...Meet in Maan's arms...Addi jerked Geet's shoulder " Geet...its true ...Maan Sir got his memory back ...lots of drama happened ...First interact with them " Addi whispered..
Whole family stepped forward. Maan came close very close to Geet...His eyes gazing her with lots of questions...Instead of her Maan addressedAddi.It took no time to understand him that Addi was in touch with Geet "Addi u were in touch of Geet.Mujhe na sahi Daddi ko kyo nahi bataya Meet ko kyo dur rakha Geet se...bollo...? "
Laxmi answered on behalf of Addi " Chote saab not just Addi but I m also in touch with Geet Madam...Since she left home...Isi liye main aapko rok rahi thi..kyonki Madam nahi chakti thi aapko patta chale " she gave justification...
"Geet betay what is all this ? I am not able to understand..If you didn't want to be in touch with us..Why you stayed away from Meet ? And how u were in touch with Addi and Laxmi..." Daddi asked.
"Daddi Maa pehle aap andar aaea...sab..." she invited them all inside taking sleeping little angle from Maan...
"Geet if this is your house it means you are Meet's Miss.." Maan linked all things...
"Yes I am.I was away from all of you .Away from all relations..Meet ko Maan aapke pass choda aayi...k aap kissi na kissi din yakeen karegay apne rishto per...Us Naintara ko bhi saha apni bachi k pass.Per Laxmi aur Nakul per bhrosa tha mujhe..." she poured her heart out holding her child tightly...She couldn't resist her tears.
All set down on sofa listening to her " per main kabhi dur nahi thi isse.. After I left home and Laxmi took whole responsibility for Meet...Yeh roj laati thi Meet ko mere pass .Park ghumne k bahane se."
" Kya Di aap Meet se roz milti thi ? " Nandini questions who was silent till now ..
" NainTara kabhi shak kar he nahi sakti thi Laxmi per...Because she was like any ordinary nanny..And NT had no time to bother about Meet becoz only money mattered for her...But she didn't know Laxmi was more than any ordinary woman but second mother to my child "she praised Laxmi with full proud...
What happened till now in my words :
When Geet decided to leave home..Addi followed her and made her realize her decision was wrong to leave her innocent 3 months old child with NT..
He asked to be close to Meet without letting any one knew...So he offered his father's old house to Geet bit away from KM where NT never reach..
Now main matter was Meet safety inside home.So who could be better than Nakul to trust .He made Nakul a part of plan.Then Nakul convinced Daddi to appoint Laxmi as Meet's Nanny..Daddi could trust on Nakuland also widow lady Laxmi was in need of livelihood.She helped her brother fully...
Every day Geet spent quality time with Meet .Also fed her..When she turned 2 and half ...Addi again came to Daddi with a proposal to sendMeet to play school. Actually he had already chosen his cousin's play school which was prestigious and much secure for Meet...
After knowing whole story Addi's cousin Aaditi helped them and instead of using real name Geet..She gave job of play school teacher with other name...Now for more time she could be close to Meet...
Still she was waiting for the day when Maan's trust on her would come back...And her long wait ended today...
How three people Addi , Nakul and Laxmi supported her in her battle .It couldn't be expressed in words.All were crying...
"Hum to tutt he gaye thy k hamari Meet bin Maa k he rah jaaegi...Per humko kya patta uski Maa saamne na ho k be hal unke paas thi...Aur in jo Adi ,Nakul aur Laxmi ne kiya hai uska karz hum kabhi nahi uttar sakte " Daddi appreciated all and hugged Laxmi...
But when Geet came to know what NT did to her child...Her heart sinked if She could have lost her child..Who was only ray of hope for her life..She screamed aloud..dropped down to sofa...holding Meet more tightly...
"Naintara ...Per to mujhe kabhi yakeen nahi tha...Per main kaise jee paati...Kaise maine Maan k yakeen k liye apni bachi ko dur kar diya apne aapse ? Main Maa nahi ek swarthi aurat hu.Apni teen maheene ki bachi ko use kiya...k apna nazriya theek saabit kar sakku (to prove my self right ) " she yelled aloud..A mother's helplessness was echoing in whole house..
It disturbed Meet' sleep and she got up...Finding her in her Miss's arms she cherished with joy..No one could assure her that she was safe more than others ..When her mother was there "Miss..Meet ko Naina Aunty ne dhakha maara uper se..Papa ne mujhe pakad kiya...he said he ll punish Naina Aunty.." She grabbed her mother's face in her tiny hands " Miss aap Meet ko chod k mat jaana..Papa aur Miss.k sath mujhe dar nahi lagta..Bollo Miss.."she sobbed..
Maan bent on his knees near to Geet and his little girl.."Nahi Beta...Papa aur Miss apko kabhi akela nahi chodegay...Call your Miss..Mumma beta..She is ur Mumma...Aur Mumma se pucho kya wo Papa per kabhi yakeen karegi fir se " he rolled his hand over Meet's cheek..
Her eyes twinkled with joy.."Sachi Miss..aap meri Mumma ho..aur mere aur Papa k sath raho-gay aao bollo ? " but she couldn't understand half what Maan said .
Maan waited for Geet's response.If she could forgive him ever..He was not able to meet eyes with her..What he did that was so shameful..But he was not responsible alone..It was destiny. ..Maan's inner turmoil to trust whom in that NT dominated his relations... To satisfy his agony he chose NT over his love ones...
Geet was also little responsible to prove her point she used her child.When he knew what was Maan going trough..But destiny some where never let her hope faint..She won...Asked her Baba Ji to forgive her if possible for sake of her child..For sake of that trust she had in him..
" Ha beta.Main aapki Mumma hu..Call me Mumma " she kissed Meet on forehead and addressed Maan than " Aur Papa ko bhi kaho Mumma un per yakeen karegi.Agar wo yeh yakeen dilla de k wo apne gusse ki aag main galat aur sahi ki pehchan na chode.."
This cod language went over 3 years old's head " Kya Mumma..kya bollo Papa se ? "
Maan looked in her eyes...He knew Geet wanted to give him a chance.She wanted to trust him once..His hope come back..
Teras rolled down to his cheeks from teary eyes " I promise Geet...sach main hamesha yakeen karuga tum per.. Aur yeh bhi yakeen dilaata hu haalat kaise bhi ho sahi galat ko samjhe kar he faisla lunga "
He grabbed Geet's hand.."Per agar fir se meri memory lose ho gayi fir kya hoga ? " he said mischievously next moment
" Tab hum aapko roof se ulta latka degay..its instant idea to bring back ur memory " Daddi teased..
Maan looked at every face and got up glared them in tough looks..But it was just a playful act..
"Ji ja Ji I think Daddi ka idea abhi use karna chahea...Aaap Hulk ho And its tough to handle you...Itna yaheen hai k...if we all do effort we can hang u upside down from roof.."Nandini teased...
Whole family convinced Geet...Leaving no option to be on knees she got ready to go with them to KM...But she was little hesitant.Thinking about all which forced her to take that tough step..
Maan also felt sorry to Dev who had been totally changed even before Maan's memory lose..due to that guilt what he did and after repenting for He forgave his bro instantly...
Unexpectedly this truth also come out of cover that Nadini and Dev were in love.But Nandini sacrificed her love for her sister and niece's sake.This raised her respect in each one's eyes...After one month they got married..
All came back to KM with a Yakeen ( hope /trust) that their lives were going to be full of happiness and how much circumstances would be against them ...They defiantly fought against those...
They happily lived after...
