Jeevika pinched Yuvi's right arm hardly, he moaned in pain.

Yuvraj: Aaah! Jeevs, bas, it's enough, stop it! It's paining...

Jeevika: [stern smile] Ya, is it paining? Very good! U deserve this for cheating me.

Priya: Jeevika, poor soul has just reached here, and now itself ur torturing him, give him a break...

Yuvraj: Exactly, look how fast Priya understood me.

Priya: And Jeevs, we still have more time to teach him a good lesson, if ur doing all this now itself, then what will we do later yaar?? [smiling]😲

Jeevika and Priya hi-5ed each other, the rest of the family stood there laughing except for Viren, who stood there leaning against the pillar gritting his teeth.😆

Yuvraj: U guys will never change.

Both the girls sticked out their tongue infront of him.

Jasleen: What to do with these girls! Beta, come in.

Yuvraj: I'm glad that atleast u told this, these two mean friends of mine r still busy torturing me.

[They welcomed him home]

Jeevika: I'm still angry with u Yuvi! Ur so bad.

Yuvraj: Tujhe toh mein baad mein convince kar loonga, afterall Yuvi toh cheetah hai cheetah...

Manvi and Riya: Point! [3 hi-5ed together]

Jasleen: Beta, coffee or tea?

Yuvraj: I'm not that particular Auntyji, anything u like!

Priya: Oyye oyee Gentleman types huh? Since when did u become so respectful and obidient Ladoo [his nick-name]

Yuvraj: [irritated] That's it, dude, i'm senior to u, u guys should seriously start respecting me!

Priya: oyye Mr.Ladoo, ur our senior only in college, but here we are ur seniors, ok!

Jeevika: Hey Priya that's very mean, afterall he's our senior right! Sorry Yuvraj bhaiya.

Yuvraj: [jaw-dropped] Hey, i'm not anyone's bhaiya ok!

Jeevika: Ok teek hai, then we'll call u Chacha-ji, Yuvraj Chacha...😆

Priya: I guess Yuvraj Kaka too wouldn't be a bad idea...

Viren: [murmered] Yuvraj Chachaji would be better for both of u!

Jeevika: Oh Yuvi, i just forgot...

She stood up and went near Viren, tightened her hand around his arm

Jeevika: This is my husband, Viren, and Virenji this is Yuvraj Singh aka Mr.Cheetah, my best friend cum senior in college. We three was such a good company, u know.

Yuvraj smiled at Viren, he too smiled back but with a stern expression on his face😳

Yuvraj woke up and shook hands with Viren.

Yuvraj: Mr.Viren Vadhera, Business Man of the Year 2011. Am i right?

Viren: Yes! [with a proud smile]

Jeevika: Don't tell u too is a big fan of him.

Yuvraj: [guffawing] Me? No, I just heard it from Priya.

This irritated Viren.Yuvi kept on rattling about his journey to Punjab, his proffession [he is an onchologist], Viren seemed bored, guess his bad days are coming.

Yuvraj: Auntyji , i'm really feeling hungry.

Jeevika: Oh ya, u must be, since ur guest , it's our duty to serve u, that too in Punjabi style, hai na Auntyji? [winked at her, Auntyji understood her intention]

Priya seemed puzzled and looked at Jeevika, after a while, idea struck her too, Manvi and Riya was trying hard to control their giggling, meanwhile Viren sat there with his hand resting on his chin!🥱

Yuvraj: Punjabi style.. what's that?

Priya: U'll know it soon... [evil smile]

Yuvraj: Since the devil is smiling, i guess something is wrong]

Priya: [shocked] What? How dare u call me a devil, u Ladoo!

She ran after him, Jeevika settled their WWF and took him to his room. After a while, he got ready and came back. Everyone was waiting for him with a crooked smile. He sat on the chair.

Yuvraj: Woah! Chole bature , ladoo, etc etc, everything looks so yummy. Jeevs, did u make it?

Viren who was sitting on the hall, working on his laptop thought...

''Is she ur wife to make all these things for u, JERK!''

Manvi: Auntyji made these.

Yuvraj: Right, afterall Jeevs ko toh cooking ki ABCD bhi nahi aathi..

Jeevika playfully hit his right arm. Everyone served him the food, he was about to eat, just then Bansari Lal interuppted him.

BL: Just taste these parratta [pushed it into his mouth]

Yuvi: It's nice, uncle!

Riya: Bhaiya, u seriously have to taste these ladoos [Before he could swallow parratta, she too pushed the laddoo in to his mouth]

Like that every members of the family was feeding him with different food items, not letting him to chew properly, he felt these people were stroking him to death. Jeevika sat beside Viren laughing, she laughed out loudly, holding her stomach.

Jeevika: Viren, OMG, look at Yuvi's expression, isn't it funny?

Viren: I don't sense anything funny here!

Jeevika: Ur mad...

Viren: U too...

[He took his laptop and went to his room surprising Jeevika, it really irritated Viren when Jeevika laughed with Yuvi, and on top of that their frequent hugs was the one Viren couldn't tolerate. ]

After the pooja, everyone gathered at the dining hall for dinner.

Yuvi: Have to say Jeevs, u and Viren do make a perfect match! Ur just a perfect couple.

This made Viren smile at Yuvi without any hint of aggression.

Yuvi: Jeevs, don't u remember how much u used to talk about ur hatred towards these business people.

Jeevika looked at Viren, he rolled his eyes😆

Jeevika: What are u talking about Yuvi?

Yuvraj: Jeevs, don't tell me that u forgot everything really soon. U used to say that business people are just boring, they don't have any time for their families, instead they just sit infront of the laptops, u even named them as ''Lappy-worms'' right!

Viren: Yuvraj, I think doctors are the persons who doesn't have time for their families. They even have to over-time work frequently for the well-being of the patients, and there's nothing boring on any profession, it's just u have to make every profession interesting by putting ur heart and soul into it!

Yuvraj: [shocked, yet smiled and clapped his hands] Wow wow!! Good job! Look Jeevs, how easily ur husband proved u wrong.

Jeevika: [mustered a smile looking at Viren, who seemed seriously pissed off] Yuvi, there's alot of other things to talk right.

After having dinner, Jeevs was about to go to her room, just then Yuvi stopped her by holding her hands.

Yuvraj: Jeevs, i need to talk to u!

Jeevika: Yuvi, we can talk in morning too!

Yuvraj: I just need one hour, can't u spare one hour for ur best friend? [puppy look]

Jeevika: [smiled] Ok, stop acting like a baby, come to the terrace, it's so peaceful to talk there.

Both of them went into the terrace, meanwhile Viren was in his room waiting for Jeevika and thinking about the new entry in their life.

Viren: This Jeevika, how fast she changed herself, before she was like Virenji Virenji, and now when this stupid guy came, she's like Yuvi Yuvi! What Yuvi, idiot kayika, and what does he call her, Jeevs?? How odd does it sound? And what was he saying, every businessman is boring, ok i'll show how bad is dealing with a businessman might be! He seems as if he is a cool-guy, i agree that both are best friends, it's her right to talk with him , but this guy is seriously getting on my nerves. Wait a minute, what am i talking? Doesn't I sound like a normal suspicious husband? Ugh! What happened to me? Why am i simply over-reacting on silly matters? Am i getting jealous? [started thinking]

[In the terrace]

Yuvraj: [looking sad]I've tormented u alot right?

Jeevika: U called me here to ask this stupid question, Yuvi had u seriously gone crazy!

Yuvraj: i know it's been 6 years that i've contacted u, its all my fault, i know u really must be feeling awkward talking with me.

Jeevika: Yuvi, just stop it ok! A lot of misunderstandings has happened in our life, but that doesn't mean i'll hate my best friend who has done alot of help to me. Do u have any idea how much u've helped me? In my exams, whether if I'm stressed, or under a problem, u were always there with me!

Yuvraj: And that friend has insulted u, left u alone for the rest of the life. Jeevs, it's enough, at the end of the day, i'm the person who is at fault, i mistook our friendship as love, i really don't want to think about that stupid day, when i confessed u!!

Jeevika: And u've already gave me the punishment for that right? Yuvi, it's not the fact that i don't love u, i always loved u but not in that sense, which u mistook, i loved u as my friend, u were not just my best friend, u were my special friend yaar, and don't blame yourself at fault, look everyone has the right to love, but there's difference between love and friendship. Friendship is something unique that cannot be compensated by love!

Yuvraj: [interjected] And if u had accepted me, then we might have spoiled the essence of friendship!

Jeevika: Yes, just imagine what if we were married, then we won't be the same as before, everything will change, and we won't be here laughing and playing jokes with each other, our relationship will change, and we won't get the same fun we had when we were friends.

Yuvraj: Jeevs, how understanding u've become! Tu toh cheethi nikhla!

Jeevika: [laughing] cHeethi? U seriously haven't changed! But have to say, u've become mature, just imagine, if it was any stupid ghadda, he would've never came back, he'll be like a devdas with bottle in his hand [laughing] [got serious] But seriously, u shouldn't have stopped contacting me, for that one reason, Yuvi! Do u know how much i was missing my friend?

Yuvraj: I know, my fault, i wasn't capable of forgiving myself yaar!

Jeevika: [touched his hand] Dekho Yuvraj, i don't have any problem, look how happy i feel to have u back?

Tears rolled down from his eyes, she too was crying, but she controlled her tears.

Jeevika: Look whose crying, The Great Cheetah is crying! Seriously, by any means, are u planning to give bad name to urself. Yuvi, i hate tears re...

Yuvraj: [hugged her] Sorry Jeevika... I'm really sorry!

Jeevika: [hugged him back] Shut up, u don't need to be that formal to me!

[in the room]

Viren: Me? Jealous? What a joke? But eventhough i'm not jealous, i must keep a watch on this guy, bada hero-giri karthe hai, when Viren's there, there's no need of any substitutes!

[Back to terrace]

Both Yuvi and Jeevika was laughing talking about their college times, how they used to play pranks on everyone, party out and all.

Yuvraj: Jeevs?

Jeevika: Yes!

Yuvraj: I promised that whever any problem comes in ur life, i'll solve it. But what have i done? Priya told me everything, i know how unhappy u feel about ur early marriage.

Jeevika: Yuvraj, it's not at all like that. When I married Viren, i thought that everything, my whole life had ended before me, I just had many misconceptions about Viren, but from Day 1 till now, he was always a best husband, he's always there with me in my happiness, sorrows, patha how much we used to fight with each other. Now my life has taken such a big turn that missing Viren will be the worst thing in my life! I love him so much Yuvi, infact i'm lucky to have a husband like him..

Yuvraj: Happy to hear it from u, and Viren loves u alot.

Jeevika: [confused] How did u understand?

Yuvraj: Just understood with his looks😛

Jeevika: Ab tujhe bhi shaadi karni padegi... I'll have a perfect girl for my perfect friend! [pinched both of his cheeks]

Yuvraj: Jeevs? I told u several times not to pinch my cheeks, and why do u want to kill me so fast, plz allow to enjoy like a free-bird for some more years...

Jeevika: Since Jeevika is here, ur marriage will defo happen!

Yuvraj:

Jeevika: Ok fyn, look what's the time now? Ok thn Good-night, see u tomorrow.

Yuvraj: Oh ur husband might be waiting 4 u, i'm sorry.

Both of them went out hand in hand, Viren peeped out from his room and saw both together.

Viren: Oho, so best friends were enjoying their time, here i was waiting for her like an idiot.

He jumped into the bed and pretended to sleep, Jeevika came inside, locked the door.

Jeevika: Viren, are u sleeping?

Viren didnt response.

Next day morning, Jeevika was gettin ready.

Viren: So every Businessman are a big bores, right!

Jeevika looked at Viren confused, she went near Viren , encircled both of her hands around his shoulders.

Jeevika: Viren, that was all old matters, that time, I wasn't knowing the real fact na, so I kept on copy-pasting what others said, business man might be boring, but my Virenji never will be.

He took off her hands, and was about to go, Jeevika sat on the bed disappointed, she went near and held both of his legs tightely.

Jeevika: I'm sorry Viren, i never meant to hurt u!

He woke her up.

Viren: Jeevika, are u crazy? Why are u doing all this? Just don't touch my feet!

Jeevika: Tell me that u're not angry with me.

Viren: [hugged her] How can i get angry with u yaar?

Jeevika smiled at him, kissed him on his cheek .

Jeevika: Ur just not the best...[kissed him on the other side of his cheek] But infact ur the bestest...

Viren: [whispered] Since i've got 2 kisses, i'll always be the bestest...

Jeevika: [blushing] I'll bring coffee for u...

Saying so, Jeevika went out of the room. Time passed and theree was no sign of Jeevika. Viren went down to see what's happening, and was shocked to see her laughing with his riot!!

Priya: Just stop pulling my legs, guys, and start planning for Sangeeth, there's only 2 days , and i'm really tensed.

Yuvraj: Stop being like a nerd! Ur underestimating me, afterall Yuvi toh cheetah hai!

Riya: Yeh cheetha giri kaam mein bhi honi chahiye...

Yuvraj: What do u know about me? Jeevs, do u remember our play 'Romeo-Juliet'? I planned the whole drama, and how beautiful it was?

Jeevika: Ya, me and u as R nd J, how can i forget it?

Viren averted his face.

''Oh, so they even played R nd J in college, iss liye kabab mein haddi ban kar yaha aaye ho?😆 If ur a cheetah, then i'm leopard, matlab big cheetah!!''

Yuvraj: So i'll be the Event-Manager!

Viren finally turned his face, with a proud expression on his face, he declared...

''No, i'll do the event-managing Yuvraj''

Everyone 's jaw-dropped hearing this. Jeevika was the most amazed to hear this. She looked at Viren, fluttering her eyes, and he just winked at her!😉
