Chapter-53

Next morning Shree stirred in his sleep felt a presence beside him, shifted his head onto his lap, with a smile. "Good morning bhaiya!"

"Good morning bacha!" Arjun whispered placing a gentle kiss on his forehead.

"Chalo uth jao! Das bajne ko hai!" Arjun replied, but shree shook his head, snuggling more whined, "Todhi der aur sone dijiye na!"

"Bachu apko medicines lena haina! Uske baad so jao! Koi disturb nahi karega! Mera acha bacha haina tu! Chalu uth ja" Arjun coaxed him.

Grumbling he opened his eyes, got up grinding his eyes, felt a tug and looked what it is! "yeh!" He tried to pull it but Arjun stopped him, "Kya karrahe hoh chote! Dard hoga!"

"Bhaiya yeh mere haath pe kab aya! Aur kyu!" He whined trying to take it off but Arjun caught his hands,

"Chote! Bas!" He told firmly stopping his movements.

"Tumhara glucose levels kam hogaye issliye raat ko jiju ne glucose chadaya! Abh rehne dho isse! Jiju aake nikalenghe!" He informed while Shree pouted!

When kabir entered he got shocked as he was welcomed with a pillow slammed right at his face, "Kya...." Confused he looked at both, "aisa sawgat ka kya matlab?"

Arjun shrugged his shoulders while Shree glared at him, "Nikaliye isse!" He gritted showing his hand.

Understanding Kabir picked the pillow placing it on bed, twisted his ear gently "Bahut Badmash hogaye tum!" Taking his hand he removed the IV, which made shree hiss slightly.

"Shh! Bacha dekho nikaldiya!" keeping a band aid, "Kush?" he raised his eyebrow while Shree folded his hands, "Nahi! Mei naraz huh aapse!" But still allowed him to check as they won't have any of his tantrums.

" Dard toh nahi horaha na?" Shree shook his head, "Nahi jiju! Mei bilkul theek huh, kya mei bahar jaa saktha huh?" He questioned hopefully tired of being confined to his room.

"Nahi! Bedrest lena hai tujhe, bahut weak hoh tum! Kal todhider rest na lene ke wajah se pata haina kya hua, BP low hogaya! Toh chupchap kamre mei raho bed se utha toh mujhse bura koi nahi hoga samje!" Kabir warned him.

Sulking he made a face looking at Arjun, "Bhaiyaaa!"

"Nahi, chote! Koi nakhre nahi! Jiju jaisa kehta hai waisa karna hih hoga! Abh chupchap reho, mei nashta mangwatha huh!" Arjun informed sternly. The servant coming inside handed the plate to Arjun.

Shree made a face seeing kichidi, started his drama, "Mujhe nahi khana!"

"Chote! Chupchap khale!" Arjun forwarded the spoon, but shree turned his face away, "Nahi! Nahi! Mujhe nahi khana!"

"Chote, khale, bahut tasty hai aur healthy bhi!" Kabir coaxed him.

"Toh aap khalo! Mujhe nahi chahiye!" He folded his arms making a angry face.

Arjun got angry, "Bas bahut hogaya tera drama, abh muh khol aur chupchap kha, warna jabardasti se khila dunga mei! Aur mei yeh karsaktha huh yeh tum bhi jante hoh!" shree remained adamant, showing his back to him.

Sighing Arjun handed the plate to Kabir, turned shree forcefully to face him, "Shree, tu janta hai tere health ke samne tere assu bhi mujhe pigla nahi sakathe, issliye chup chap kha!" when he didnot reply Arjun glared at him, catching his jaw he forcefully parted his mouth and took the spoon and forced him eat.

Tears welled up in his eyes due to bland taste and Arjun's anger, but Arjun ignored them and made him eat, while kabir looked on sadly, as he knew how much it was hurting Arjun to force his baby.

"Arjun abh chod na! Dekho kitna roraha hai!" Kabir interferred after plate was almost empty.

Keeping it aside, Arjun stared at him whose tears were following down, "Chote!" But shree turned his face going into Kabir arms and started crying.

"Chote! Bas bacha, rona bandh karo, tabeeth karab hoga, dekho tera bhaiya kitna dukhi lagraha!" Kabir whispered caressing his back rocking him gently.

"Nahi! Mujhe baat nahi karni unse! Bahut bure hai woh!" He grumbled.

Arjun looked on sadly, he knew his brother didnot meant a word, but watching him cry his heart pained as it was due to him, gently placed hand on his hunched shoulders, "Bachu, please rona mat!" and pulled him into his embrace.

Shree didnot utter a word but keeping head on his brother chest, he sobbed beating with his fist, "aap bahut bure ho!"

Chuckling at him, he mumbled, "Haa! Tera bhaiya bahut bure hai, ek no ka gadha hai, issliye apne bache ko rulaya! Bilkul idiot hai!" Yelped, "Ahh!" rubbing his arm as Shree pinched him, fake glared at him, "kya tha yeh!"

Looking up, "Mere bhaiya ke khilaf kuch nahi! Mere alawa koi unhe kuch nahi kehsakthe aap bhi nahi! Samje!" He grumbled making a cute angry face.

Smiling at him, Arjun pinched his cheek, "Aww! Mera bacha! Maaf karde apne bhaiya ko! Mei kya kartha apne bache ko weak todhi na deksaktha!"

Shree made a face, "Kal raat ki tarah aap kuch aur banate!"

"Bachu! Mei lunch mei kuch banata huh tereliye, theek hai!" Arjun whispered caressing his hair.

Shree nodded hugging him tightly, "Mei aapko bahut miss kiya bhaiya! Aap kyu mujhe akele chodke gaye?"

Both Arjun Kabir looked at eachother, then at Shree, "ek important kaam tha, abh agaya huh na!" Arjun whispered closing his eyes in pain for lying to him.

"Acha Arjun mujhe hospital jana hai! Tum iska dyaan rakho! Bye chote, bilkul stress nahi lena hai tujhe theek hai!" Saying he kissed his temple ruffling his hairs.

After his exit, Shree looked up at Arjun, remembering the fight, "aap theek hona bhaiya?"

"Haa bacha! Chalo todhi der aram karlo!" Arjun whispered but shree shook his head, "Bhaiya!"

"Kya hua chote!" Arjun looked at him in corncern, "Kahi dard toh nahi horaha na, mei jiju ko bhulao!" But stopped as shree shook his head, "Nahi! Mujhe fresh hona na bhaiya!"

"Theek hai chalo! Mei help kartha huh!" and helped him towards washroom.

"Mei kapde nikal ke raktha huh, agar jarurat pade toh mujhe awaz dho!" and started making bed, removing old bedsheets throwing them for washing.

He sided the curtains of the window,opening them. opened the door stepping into the common terrace which connects their three rooms. As Shree room is in middle of Samjun's.

He turned around and saw his brother coming out of washroom water dripping from his hair frowned, "Bacha aap shower kyu liye! Dekho baal geele hogai, agar bhukar badhjata toh?"

Arjun made him sit taking the towel started drying his hair, "Kyu kiya aisa chote!"

"Bhaiya! Mera baal bahut chipuku lagraha tha! Kitna kharab hogaya!" He pouted as he felt his hairs sticky.

Shaking his head, "Toh mujhe bol dete mei help kardeta tha, dekh bandages bhi geele hogai!" Drying his arm, he took out the medical box, kneeled before him.

Taking his hands gently he removed the wet bandages, dried his wrist took out a ointment. Seeing it, "Bhaiya nahi bahut jalega!" Shree whined shaking his head.

"Bacha kuch nahi hoga! Mei aram se karlungha!" Arjun coaxed him applied the cream on his wound.

Shree flinched in pain felt cool sensation looked down and saw his brother blowing air applying the ointment.

Bandaging his wounds Arjun got up wiping silght tears which escaped his eyes, cupped his face caressing his cheeks with thumb pressed a kiss on his forehead.

"Chalo! Todhi der so jaa!" Lowered him and lifted his legs on to bed. Covering with blanket he sat beside him caressing his head humming a soft note.

With medicines and his brother humming shree eyes felt heavy closed them drifting into sleep, as Arjun only sings for him not even for his Jaan!

Watching him sleep Arjun came down, got suprised seeing him called out, "Mamu aap kab aye?" touched his feet.

Pulling him into hug, "todhider pehle Arjun! Kabir ne bataya kaise shree zidh karaha tha khana na khane se, agar mei agaya hota toh woh rest bikul nahi lega issliye neeche wait karrahe tha! Batao kaisa hai woh?"

Hugging him tightly, "Mera bacha theek nahi hai mamu! Woh bahut kuch seha, lekin nahi dhika raha!"

"Arjun! Aise tuthe nahi bacha! Aapko usse sambhalna hoga!" Virendra who was angry for his act, was in mood to scold him but looking at face, his anger flew away.

The family breathed in relief, to lighten the mood, Sam whined, "Mamu not fair haa! Athe hih mujhe daanth liya aur Arjun ko kuch nahi kehrahe aap?"

Coming out the hug Arjun frowned, "Matlab kya sam?"

"Matlab yeh ki bhai ki bahut achi khasi class li badepapa ne!" Sheen giggled from behind, while Sam knocked her head from back, "Chup!" With a glare.

"Chachu!" She whined in complaining voice.

"Sam! Khabardar meri beti ko kuch kaha toh!" Rajveer gave a stern glare.

"Haa! Sab mujhe hih daantho! Iss Arjun ko kuch mat kehna!" He grumbled.

"Kyunki aap bade hai Sameer! Apne chote bhaion ko zimmedari hai aap par, toh unki galti par apko hih daanth padega na!" Virendra replied while Arjun chuckled from back as he very well knew how bad it would be when his mamu scolds them.

"Mamu, galti mujhse bhi hua, mujhe apne gusse ko control karna chahiye tha, chote ke samne!" Arjun whispered in regretted tone, "My behavior was not acceptable!"

"Arjun! It's okay, hum sab samaj sakthe! Aur tere chachu ne bahut badi saza diya! Abh sab chodo iss baat ko, agar Shree ko pata chalega toh bahut hungama khade karega!" Knowing very well.

Later when Shree stirred in his sleep and opened hsi eyes saw his friends in the room, "Tumlog!"

"Uthgaye shehzade, iss tuchi praani ko apne darshan dekhe dyaan kardiya aap!" Virat started his drama.

"Pakha mat mujhe!" Shree slapped his hand away while others chuckled at him.

Taking place beside him, "Abh kaisa feel karrahe hoh shree!" Nirvan asked.

"Mei theek huh Nirvan!" Shree assured him.

"Tere liye ek suprise!"and handed him a gift box. Shree looked confused, "Par gift kisliye!"

"Tere birthday pe hum nahi apaye na! Yeh humsab ki taraf se!" He replied and helped him to open the gift.

Staring at the cover he felt speechless, stroked his fingers gently as it has photo of him cradled in Arjun's arms, "Yeh!" his voice thick with emotions.

He slowly opened it and there were his photos with his family, with his brothers, friends which he had no idea, he stopped at one particular photo, "jiji!" he whispered recalling particular memory, when he fell asleep in her lap, bored of his jiju's scoldings as he bunked the college for movie, and how Roshini punished his jiju by making him sleep on floor for scolding her baby. A tear escaped his eyes as she would always hide his mischief from his brothers, felt someone wiping his tears looked up, "Bhaiya!"

Arjun who came inside got worried seeing his tears came to him, understood immediately looking at the photo. Wiping his tear, "Bacha! roo mat, Roshini hamesha humhare dil mei rahegi!"

Nodding he turned the pages, it even has photos of shimla, and at last there was also a pic of him with his team, turned and saw empty pages, frowned but virat replied, "Abhi bahut kuch baki hai usmei shree! Jaise jaise tum zindagi mei aage badtha jayega waise waise yeh khali pages bhi bharta jayega!" Shree nodded with tears.

To lighten the mood, "aur waise tum bilkul cry baby bangaya! Bhai ek kaam karo aap aaj se isse cry baby bhulao! Aur issmei tere rolthu chehra bhi rakhenghe, kyu Ali?" He teased.

Sameer who came inside jumped quickly, "Haa! Yeh bikul theek kaha! Isse crybaby bhulate aaj se! Jab dekho rotha rehta hai! Khane pe rona, dawai lene pe rona!" while Shree glared at him, pouted, "Bhaiyaa!" Looking up at Arjun widening his eyes.

"Sam! Virat! Mere bache ko tangh mat karo tumdono!" Arjun gave a fake glare inwardly enjoying their banter.

Checking his temperature he sighed as it lowered completely, "Sam! Kabir se baat hua kya! Kab arrahe woh?"

"Agai! Neeche badepapa se baat karrahe athe honghe!" Taking place on otherside, Sam looked at shree emotionally, "Bachu tum theek hona!" caressing his face.

"Bhai! Mei theek huh, aapsab ke hothe mujhe kuch nahi hoga!" He whispered placing head on his chest, "mei kalse apko bahut miss kiya!" Wrapping his arms around him, Sam caressed his back, "Mei bhi bachu! Aur kal tumhe woh sab dekhne pade, uskeliye maaf kardo humhe! humhare karan tera tabeeth karab hogai."

Sam whispered ruffling his curls with one hand pressed a kiss on them. Nodding, "It's okay bhai! Par please ayinda aap jhagadna mat, mujhe acha nahi lagta!" He replied in teary voice startling both.

Arjun looking at his friends signed them to leave. "Chote! Bacha ro kyu rahe hoh! Dekho humdono mei abh koi jagdha nahi!" Arjun replied keeping a hand on his back.

Coming out the hug he wiped his eyes with back of his palm looking so innocent, "Aapdono ka jhuthmut jagadhe mujhe pasand nahi tha! Jab bhi aapdono ladthe, bhale woh jhut hoh par mera dil dhuktha hai! Mei apne bhaion ko ek dusre ke virud khade hothe nahi deksaktha bhale woh natak hoh!" He told them.

Samjun looked at him with concern, before it has been easy but when Shree joined ETF they tried to minimize their acting knowing he would get hurt in process. "Bacha! Bhale hum dono ki soch alag hoh, kaam karne ki tarika alag hoh par hum yeh kabhi nahi bhulate ki hum bhai hai! Duniya kuch bhi kahe par sam humhesha humdono ke bade bhai hih rahega!"

" Aur tumdono mere chote bhai!" Sam replied fondly!

"Janta huh! Par agar aapdono phirse jagdha karenge toh mei aapdono se baat karna chodunga!" He stated shocking them.

"Chote!"

"Wada kijiye aapdono ki jagdha nahi karenghe!" He forwarded his hand.

Looking at eachother both nodded placing their hand, "Hum wada karthe hai! Tere samne kabhi nahi ladenghe!" Shree nodded hugging Arjun while Sam hugged him from back.

At the sametime Kabir entered raising his eyebrow, "kya chal raha yaha?" Making the three apart. "Kuch nahi! Tum batao reports agai chote ke!"

"Haa! Blood mei drug or poison dono ki traces nahi hai! Par..." Arjun sensed Shree tensed up held his giving a light squeeze, "Shh! Chote kuch nahi hoga!" Looking at Kabir, "Abh rukh kyu gaye bolo!"

" Chote ko bahut weakness hogaya, issliye stress aur kaam se dur rakhna hai humhe!" Arjun nodded.

Shree who was in deep thinking frowned looking at the door as a women in near to thirty stepped inside, unknowingly tightened his grip on Arjun which stunned him. "Chote kya hua?" Arjun cupped his face ignoring the new presence as his comfort comes first.

"Bhaiya! Yeh kaun hai!" Shree whispered slowly.

"Dr Ishani Kapoor chote!" Kabir replied, "aur aaj se tumhara nutritionist!" As soon as he said Shree yelled, "Kya!"

"Chote!" Arjun called him but shree shook his head, "Are you serious! Mei bikul theek huh, koi nutritionist ki jaruat nahi mujhe!"

"Chote baat to sunho!" Sam tried to stop him, but shree shook his head, "Hadh karthe aap log! Dekhiye mera parivaar kuch jayada hih tension lerahe, par mei theek huh, issliye aap jayiye yaha se!"

"Chote! Chup, woh kahi nahi jaa rahi jabtak tere liye koi diet plan nahi banathi!" Kabir informed indicating her to take seat, "Iski baaton ko dyaan mat dho!" Shree saw his brothers face, startled them as he started yelling out, "Mom! Chachi! Bhabhi! Ayesha bhabhi! Sakshi!!"

"Chote chup! kya karrahe hoh!" Sam chided closing his ears as at times they forget how big he can shout but Shree huffed at him, "Bhabhi!!!!"

Immediately sakshi and Ayehsa who were coming towards his room, came inside running, Pushing Arjun, "Shree kya hua!" Sakshi cupped his face while Ayesha sat before him taking his hand, "Shree kuch kaha inn logone!"

"Bhabhi dekho na jiju kis ko lekar aye apne saath! Mujhe nutritionist ki jarurat nahi!" He grumbled.

"Chote! Tere koi nakhre nahi chalega samje, aur choti utho waha se!" Kabir warned them.

Sakshi sighed as she cannot interfere when whole family agreed on this, "Shree, meri taraf dekho! Yeh tumhare bhalai keliye na! Manjao baba!" Shree shook his head adamantly.

"Jaan utho!" Arjun said firmly which she obeyed. Ayesha too got up while Arjun resumed his place giving a stern glare making him quiet.

"Aajkal tere zidh dinbadin badthe jaa rahe! Chup chap joh kehrahe woh karo, woh tumhe kha todhi na rahi! Itna hungama macha rahe hoh! Yeh koi tarika hai guests ke samne behave karne ka! Kya sochegi woh yahi na ki hum tumhe achi parvarish nahi diye!" He chided while Shree bowed his head.

"Arjun bas karo, usse daanth kyu rahe hoh!" Sakshi interferred but he stopped her giving a look.

"Mujhe bhi acha nahi lagraha, par kya kare chote tera wajan itna kam hogaya aur upar se tu kuch jyada khate bhi nahi! Jab tumhe apne bahon mei utha tha toh kitna light weight lagrahe toh tumhe pata bhi nahi! I want you to become strong chote, aur iskeliye mei sab kuch karunga! Abh Dr Ishani joh puchegi uska jawab dho!" Shree didnot utter a word, angry at them.

Dr Ishani who was silent spectator still now, sighed, "Kabir agar yeh coperate nahi karega toh mei kuch nahi karsakthi!"

"Aapko joh puchni hai mujhse puchiye!" Arjun sighed knowing his stubborn baby brother won't open his mouth.

"Haa Ishani Arjun se behter shree ko achese koi nahi janta, woh khud bhi nahi! Tum isse baat karo!" She nodded, "theek hai hum bahar Chalke baat karthe, he clearly doesn't want me here!" Arjun nodded standing up from his place but Shree caught his hand, "aap kaha jaarahe!"

Turning to him, he heaved a glare, "Tumse matlab! Abhitak muh nahi khole aur abh mujhe kyu rokh rahe hoh!"

"Bhaiya!" Shree called out slowly, "Please mat jayiye na! Mei kuch nahi bolunga!" he pleaded not to leave him. "Kyu chote! Tumhe toh kisike sunhne nahi, mei kyu rukhu yaha!" Arjun raised his eyebrow.

Shree looked down playing with his fingers as he didnot want to show his fear in front of stranger. Arjun resumed his place with a sigh, not talking with him, he nodded at Dr and started informing her about his likes, dislikes, allergies everything.

Getting all required information,"Mei kal tak diet plan draft karkhe mail kardeti huh theek hai!" She said and got up. Kabir went with her. Arjun remained silent.

"Bhaiya! Baat karo na mujhse!" Shree requested pulling his hand but Arjun removed it.

Virendra who came to meet him, "Kya horaha yaha?"

"Mamu!" Shree forgot everything and jumped from his place excitedly, "aap kab aye mamu!"

Chuckling at him, "abhi kuch samai pehle! Abh bata kaisa hai mera bacha!" He caressed his head.

Nodding, "mei bikul theek huh!" gave his cute smile.

"Acha! Phir Arjun tumse naraz kyu hai?" He raised his eyebrow.

Pouting, "dekhona mamu! Mujhe kitna tangh karrahe bhai aur jiju! Jiju itne kadwe dawai khilate mujhe aur toh aur woh mujhe itne itne bade bade injections derahe!" Showing his arms. "Aur bhaiya mujhe sada hua khana khila rahe, upar se daanth bhi rahe! Koi mujhse pyaar nahi karthe!" he made a crying face, while Arjun rolled his eyes, "Nautanki!" getting a giggle from others.

Smiling at his antics, "Acha! Mere bache ko kyu tangh karrahe aap Arjun!" Virendra glared at him.

"apne bache se toh puchiye sahi! Kya kiya abhi!" Arjun huffed and narrated what he did.

"Acha! Issliye silent treatment derahe hoh usse!" He chuckled.

Folding his hands he made a grumpy face, "bhaiya baat karo na!" tugging his sleeves while Arjun averted his face.

"Maan le beta! Warna tere narazegi se yeh apna tabeeth karab karega!" Virendra said nodding at him.

"Bas issi pyyar ka bahut najayaz faida uthatey yeh!" Arjun grumbled with out any heat behind his words ruffled his hairs with love.

Smiling at them, Virendra took out a box, "Mamu yeh kya hai?" Shree asked with curiosity.

Opening it he took out a chain which has a rudraksh attached to it. Catching it in his hands, "Yeh bahut special hai shree! yeh rudraksh bahut rare hai aur tere dadu ne tumhare liye himalay se mangwaya aur iski pooja mahadev ke bhara jyotirlinga mei ki gaye! Yeh tumhari sahi salamati keliye! Aajkal tumpe bahut sankhat arrahe!" Saying he gave to Arjun, "Usse pehnado Arjun!"

Shree looking at him, "woh kyu nahi aye mamu!"

"Tujhe pata haina woh haveli ko chodke nahi ayega! Lekin tumsab ko bahut miss karrahe!" He assured.

"haa! Hum bahut jald udaipur jaane wale chote, Sam ki shaadi wahi toh hoga! Aur dadu se baat bhi hogai mera, woh apne pothe ko bahut miss karaha!" Saying Arjun tied the chain around his neck, "Isse kabhi mat utarna!"

"Chalo tum aram karo mei shyaam ko milne atha huh! Sam chalo kuch kaam hai tumse!" With that Virendra kissed his forehead and went from there.

Shree holding the chain started playing with it, "woh sab bahut naraz hone wale mujhse!" He pouted.

"Tum kaam hih aise karrahe hoh aajkal!" Arjun knocked his head, "Acha, mei tumhare liye kuch banake le atha huh!" Arjun got up but Shree caught his hand, "bhaiya mujhe bhi ana hai!"

"Nahi chote! Bilkul nahi, abhi bhi bahut weak hoh aur waha ane ki permission dekhe mei koi chance nahi lene wala! Apne doston ke saath kuch khelo mei unhe ander bhejta huh lekin bed se nahi uthoge tum!" Saying Arjun left informing his friends.

"Manik aur Ali nahi aye!" He asked as soon as both came inside.

"Nahi Ali office gaye aur Manik hospital mei report karne! Shyaam tak ajayenge!" Nirvan replied while virat, "Toh shree, kya irada hai! Bed pe se toh uthna mana hai, kya karoge?"

"Tum mujhe pareshan mat kar! Warna Bhaiya ko bolunga!" Shree warned pouting at him, virat on the TV, and resumed what shree was watching previously.

Arjun entering into kitchen saw Sam, Ayesha and Sakshi already present, "Tum teenon yaha?" "Haa! Chote nawab keliye khana joh banana hai, hum tera hih wait karrahe!" Sam huffed glaring at girls.

"Woh sab theek hai lekin undono ko kyu gurrahe hoh!"

"Kyunki, unhe jabardasti joh laaye hum!" Sakshi giggled escaping from his raised fist.

"Sameer, Sakshi ko chidayiye maat aap!" Ayesha glared at him.

Shaking his head, "Abh tumlogon ka hogaya toh mei kuch banao!" He asked sarcastically.

" Haa! Mujhe chutkara dho!" Sam huffed but Arjun simply kept knife in his hand, "Sabzi khato! Koi bahana nahi!"

Sakshi Ayesha giggled from back watching his expression. The four of them prepared lunch, serving in plate, "itna chahti huh ki shree isse dekhe mana na kardhe!" Ayesha frowned.

"Khane ko lekar uske nakhre kabhi kam nahi hoga Ayesha, tum itna mat socho!" Sam assured her.

"Aur waise bhi Arjun ke haath se bane khane ko shree kabhi mana nahi kartha!" Sakshi replied confidently.

"Abh tumlogon ki baat hogai toh mei lekar jao!" Arjun took the plate, "Aur haa Virat aur Nirvan keliye bhi lunch bhejdho Jaan!" Arjun shook his head watching three totally immersed in watching Tv, called them, "Chote!"

"Bhai haath oo na bahut interesting episode chal rahe!" Shree whined trying to see the screen.

Taking the remote he paused it while three looked at him not looked but glared, "Bhaiya yeh kya kiya aap?"

Crossing his arms he gave a stern look, " pehle khana uske baad joh karna hai karo! Aur tumdono muh haath dho ke avo, tumlogon ka khana athe hih hoga!"

"Par bhai!" Virat tried to deny but stopped immediately, "Mei tumdono ko mana karne ka option nahi diya! Abh chup chap joh kaha woh karo, samje ya samjaov!" He said in firm voice. Nodding both got up obeying his order to wash their hands.

Shree who kept quiet sensed his brother gaze on him, "Bhaiya...woh..."

"Chote, mei naraz nahi huh, chalo khana khalo pehle..." Arjun told him gently.

The other two came inside, "Bhai.."

"khana waha hai, khalo pehle!" Arjun pointed towards the couch where two plates were kept.

Shree noticing the plate, "Dal chawal!" he grumbled making a face. "Haa, dal chawal, meine khud banaya abh chup chap khalo!" Arjun said and forwarded the spoon.

"Aapne toh kaha mereliye kuch aur banoge phir yeh patient wala khana kyu banaye aap?" Shree mumbled opening his mouth.

Making him eat, "meine kaha kuch baanalungha yeh todhi na batai kya banaunga!" Arjun retorted earning chuckles from his friends, whom he glared. To tease him, "Waise bhai! Khana bahut acha hai! sachmei US mei ghar ka khana bahut miss kiya khaas kar yeh chicken curry!" Virat smirked

"Bhukad kahi ka!" Shree grumbled making a pout, "Bhaiya dekhno na mujhe chidarahe!"

Shaking his head at their antics, "chup karo tumdono! Virat tangh mat karo usse! Bahut mushkil se khilaraha huh!" making him eat who is sulking giving glares to his friends.

After completing he handed him water glass and gave medicines who took them after making lot of fuss.

With medicines effect he felt drowsy mumbled, "Bhaiya! Mujhe neendh arahi!" Helping him to lie down properly, "So jao! Shyaam ko hum park pe jaayenghe todhider!" Arjun mumbled stroking his hair.

As he slept, "Bhai Sorry! Bas uska mood theek karne keliye mei usko tangh karaha tha!"

"Virat mei janta huh! Sorry kehne ki jarurat nahi! Infact mujhe tasali hai ki tumsab wapas aye! Bhale woh kehta nahi par bahut miss kiya tumsab ko! Team mei uske dost toh banne lekin kuch mahine pehle tak unsabse khulke baat bhi nahi karpatha tha, apne identity ke karan! Aur woh chotu se kitna bhi karib hoh lekin joh rishta tumsabse hai kisise nahi hai uska! Ek Ali hih hai jiske saath koi mask nahi pehna padtha, So, Thankyou mere chote keliye sab chodke ane keliye!"

"Bhai! Yeh kaise baate karrahe aap! Humsab shree se bahut pyaar karthe, uskeliye kuch bhi karne keliye tayar hai hum! Iske karan hih toh humhe ek bhai ka pyaar hota kya hai pata chala! Aap yaa ghar mei koi bhi humhe paraya nahi samjhe kabhi bhi! Toh thnx mat boliye humhe!" Nirvan replied as being single child of their family they never got to know the sibilings love but because of Shree they got it and much more.

Standing Arjun pulled them both into a hug, "aur yeh kabhi mat bhulna! Tumsab mere chote se jhude hai aur iss parivaar ki hissa hoh! Aur I am so proud tumlog ki khamyabhi se!" Smiling at him, "Acha bhai! abh hum bhi chalte hai!" They informed and left from there.

As promised in the evening Arjun took him to park for a light walk, even there our Shree didnot stop his tantrums, "Bhaiya mujhe puchka khani hai!" pointing towards the stall.

"Chote bikul nahi! Agar aur zidh karoge toh hum wapas jayenge!" Arjun warned. Making a cute angry face he twisted his lips showing how much upset he is but Arjun who knew his dramas kept quiet walked slowly matching his pace. Unknown to Shree security were following them keeping a eye on any suspicion activity lingering on them.

"Chote, yaha Beitho, mei abhi aya!" Arjun said pointing towards the bench. "Par aap kaha jaa rahe?" Shree frowned, "Abhi aya! Tum relax karo!" Saying Arjun left from there.

Confused with his actions, Shree shrugged his shoulders, watching kids playing. He was so engrossed didnot realise his brother came back, flinched as a hand fell on his shoulders. Arjun who noticed it, immediately sat beside him, "Relax chote, mei huh!"

Looking at him he nodded taking deep breaths, "Aap kaha gaye?" Caressing his face with one hand Arjun brought forward his other hand which he was hiding.

Looking at it Shree eyes shone, "masala puri!"

"Haa!"

"Bhai aap toh bahar ka khana nahi khane dete mujhe yeh kehke ki woh hygienic nahi!" Shree questioned as he would never allow it, only because of his and Sakshi zidh he would consent very rarely.

"Haa! Kyunki woh unhygienic hai! Pata nahi kya kya milate uss pani mei! Lekin yeh mei khud banaya! Abh khalo!" and made him eat.

After spending some quality time they returned home. Coming inside Shree saw his whole family is in living room, smiled evilly looking at Sameer. Arjun who observed it, warned "Chote koi shaitani nahi!" but will he listen No!

Tiptoeing towards Sam, he shook his head at others who noticed his presence to be quiet. Standing at his back he yelled "Bhaiiii!!!" Startling Sameer who yelped, "Ahh!" jumping from his place pouring the contents of plate on him.

All laughed seeing his state, "Shree ke bache!" Sam turned around knowing it was his plan, narrowed his eyes looking at him who is laughing loudly, "Haahaa.. Bhai! Dekho apne aap ko!"

"Rukh tu chodunga nahi tujhe!" Sam warned stepping towards him but Shree immediately ran towards his chachu, "Chachu! Dekho na bhai ko! Mujhe maarne arrahe!" hiding behind him.

"Dad hatiye!" Sam glared at shree who is smirking at him from behind pulling his tongue out.

"Sam! Chodo, bacha hai aur jake kapde badal ke avo!" His dad told him muffling his laugh. Grumbling , "Shaintan chodunga nahi tujhe!" Sam left to get changed.

Shree who was laughing felt a tug on his ear, "kyu Badmash apne bade bhai ko aisa koi tangh kartha!"

"Ahh! Mom chodo na dard horaha mujhe!" He whined.

"Mom chodiye! Woh beemar hai!" Arjun interferred removing her grip caressed his ear gently, "dard toh nahi horaha na chote!" Pouting at his mom, "Apne beemar bete ke saath aisa koi kartha hai kya? Aap na mujhse baat mat karo!"

Rolling her eyes, "Haa! Pata hai tu beemar hai lekin harkathe toh waise nahi karthe tum!" His mom retorted nonetheless took him into her embrace, "sorry bacha! Jyada dard nahi horaha na!"

"Nahi mom! Mei mazak karaha tha!" He mumbled felt a kiss on his hair. All smiled at the mother son jodi knowing how worried she was the entire time. Sam who came down shook his head as all are pampering him, "iska toh bahana chahiye apne sewa karwane ka!" mumbling he sat beside him, "waise chote aaj tera mood itna acha kyu hai?"

Smiling at him, "kyunki bhaiya ne mujhe park lekar gaye, mere saath time spend kiya aur mujhe masala puri bhi khilaye!" He replied in flow.

As soon as they heard it all turned towards Arjun, "Yeh kya sunhrahe hum, aap usse bahar ka khana khilaya!" His dad stated with disbelief.

"Aaplog stress kyu lerahe, aapsab se jyada uski health ko lekar fikar mujhe hota! Golgappe khane ka zidh karaha tha baki sab ko dekhe, issliye mei khud uskeliye woh masala puri banaya taki uska mood karab na hoh! Kabir kaha toh tha, usko kush rakhne ka, Warna aap nahi jante isko khilana dur aaspaas bhi batakne nahi deta mei!" Arjun stated, "Kitna unhygienic hai woh sab, mei apne chote ko woh kaise khane deta!" making a face.

"Sir! Aap toh tea stall se cutting chai peethe! Humhe nahi laga aap hygienic ka dyaan rakhte!" Riya mumbled.

"Woh rule keval mujhpe aur Sakshi pe lagu hothe Ri!" Shree grumbled.

"Matlab?" Chotu questioned him.

"Matlab yeh chotu! Arjun ko hygienic se koi farak nahi padtha agar woh khudkeliye hoh lekin agar mujhe ya Shree ko kuch street food khane hote toh yeh hygienic ki baat kartha aur humhe khane bhi nahi deta!" Sakshi folded her hands pouting at him.

"Tumdono kitna bhi mujhe chidao lekin street food unhygienic hota hai aur usko khane se tabeeth karab hoga! Mei toh joh tumhe chahiye restaurent se mangwatha huh na yaa toh chef se bolkhe banwata huh toh problem kya hai!" Arjun raised his eyebrow.

"Kyunki joh baat waha khade hokhe khane ka hota woh aapke restaurant mei nahi hoga!" Sakshi pouted.

Shaking his head, "abh iss discussion ka koi faida nahi! Mei fresh hokhe atha huh! Chalo chote, todhider kamre mei aram karlo!" He stodd up.

" Bhaiya mujhe yaha rehne dijiye na!" Shree requested but Arjun shook his head, "Nahi! Shayam se tum kamre ke bahar hih hai! Abh todha rest lena ka time hai! Chalo!" and pulled him.

Settling him in his room, "Aram karo! Koi masti nahi! Mei fresh hokhe atha huh!" Saying he left from there.

Shree really tired leaned on to headrest closing his eyes, a smile crept on his face remembering the events. He felt a gaze opened his eyes and saw Liza standing at the door with hesitation, "Ander aajao Liza!" Nodding she moved inside and sat before, "Abh kaisa lagraha hai shree!"

"Mei theek huh tum jyada tension mat lo!" He replied softly.

"Mei bahut dargai shree tumhe aise halath mei dekhe!"

"Liza please uske baare mei mujhe kuch baat nahi karna! Mei woh sab bhulna chahta huh!" He stopped her as he don't want to talk about it with anyone.

Nodding, "Theek hai! Tumbas theek hojao wahi mere liye kafi hai! Tumhe tangh karne keliye bahut inteezar karraha huh Specky!" She smirked.

"Phirse Specky! Tum chipkali!" He glared at her.

"Bandar!"

"Bandaria!"

Both strated name calling didnot realise when Arjun and his team entered inside....unaware of it, Shree took a pillow and slammed at her face, "Chipkali!" he smirked at her, "Specky tujhe toh mei..." Before she could to something Arjun stepped in between, "Kya horaha yaha?" Crossing his arms giving a firm look to both, who bowed their head getting caught.

"Chote aram karne ko bola na meine!" Arjun glared at him, "Aur tum Liza shree ke kamre mei kya karrahe hoh?"

"Dekhona bhaiya mei aram hih karraha tha! Lekin yeh akhe mujhe disturb ki!" He blamed her.

All looked at Liza who had her mouth open, Noticing Arjun's gaze she composed herself, giving a glare, "Sorry sir! Bas dekehne ayi thi! Par yeh mujhe chida raha tha!" She accused him.

"bhaiya jhoot bolrahi! Mei acha bacha huh na, issine start kiya!" He pouted.

"Haa humsab jante tu kitna doodh ka dula hai!" Sam interferred giving a look. "Abh tumdono yeh ladai khatam karo! Liza tum sabke saath jao! Kal se office jana hai humhe!" Sam informed her.

"Aur aap chote saahab aram karo! Warna jiju ko sedative dene keliye boldunga!" Sam warned him, Widening his eyes he mumbled, "Khadoos!" under his breath. "Waise bhai kal se phir kaam shuru hoga!" Sam gave a look, seeing it, "Aise kyu dekhrahe hoh, mei bhi toh araha huh na aapke saath!"

"NAHI!" They all shouted making him cringe back.

"Chote! Sochna bhi mat! Jabtak mei nahi kehta tum ghar se bahar kadam nahi rkahne wale hoh!" Arjun said firmly!

Later at night, Arjun made sure shree ate his dinner and medicines. Kabir who was checking him, sighed with relief, "Arjun! Acha kiya tumne isse walk pe Lee jake! Ek kaam karo, kalse subah aur shyaam walk pe lejao, Drugs ke akran iski body bahut weak hogai, todha walk lega toh acha hoga iskeliye!" He infomed, looking at shree "Chalo chote aaj injection lena last hai!"

"Par jiju jaruri hai kya? mere haath mei abhi bhi dard hai!" He grumbled.

"Haa course aaj khatam hoga toh lena toh padega! Aur janta huh dard abhi hai issliye haath pe nahi kamar mei deraha huh! Leith jao!" Kabir replied.

Nodding he turned around placing his head on Arjun's lap, "Jiju! Pucca yeh last haina!" he questioned closing his eyes tightly catching Arjun's shirt feeling a sharp pain, cried out, Arjun caressing his back, "bas bacha! Ek second hojayega!" and rubbed the place gently.

Ruffling his curls, "Chote! relax, Medicine course khatam hogai! Kal se no Injection I promise!" Turning his face, Arjun wiped his wet eyes, "dard horaha!" when he nodded Arjun kissed his forehead caressing his back.

Everyone in the family made sure Shree got complete rest and with their Love he was recovering slowly but the trauma he faced he is hiding it even from his brother not confiding in them, suffering inside. While except Arjun n shree all resumed their work. Sakshi was busy handling ETF as well as prjct which was in last stage.....and top of it her tension rose to high because now not only she is getting flowers at office but also at ETF, which made her tensed as her identity has been revealed but how much she had no idea.

Pacing around in terrace, "Bappa! Kya karu mei! Mujhe kuch sujh nahi raha! Koun hai yeh joh mere peeche karraha! Office tak aya theek hai kyunki kisiko pata nahi chalta lekin teen din se ETF mei bhi flowers arrahe, kaun hai yeh aur woh meri identity kaisa jangaya aur agar kisiko iske baare mei pate chale toh?"

"Aajtak Arjun ko iss baat se dur rakha takhi woh gussa na hojaye lekin office mei kaise sambhalpaungi!" She bit her nails, "Dii! Aap kuch raasta dhikao na! Mei kya karu? Arjun ko bata dhu!" She frowned again shaking her head, "Nahi! Nahi! Shree ko lekar woh bahut jyada pareshan hai aise mei unhe yeh batake aur pareshan nahi karna chahta mei!" She came out of thoughts feeling arms around her waist shreiked, "Ahh!" But a hand closed her mouth stopping her voice, "Jaan!relax mei huh!"

Sakshi relaxed her body started talking but Arjun raised his eyebrow, "Kya bolrahi hoh?" She indicated his hand on her mouth, who removed it immediately, "Sorry!"

"Arjun aap mujhe dara diya! Aisa koi kartha hai kya?" She fired on him.

Pulling her close, "Par jaan! Tum toh bandh ankhon pe bhi mujhe pehchan leti hoh! Toh aaj kya hua?" He asked with a frown.

Not looking at him, "Kuch nahi Arjun! Woh bas mei kisi gehri soch mei thi issliye!"

"Jaan! Jhut mat bolo mujhse! Batao kya hua, bahut tensed mei lagrahi thi tum!" He told while she looked up in suprise, chuckling at her, "Aise kyu dekhrahi hoh! Haa mei chote ko lekar pareshan huh lekin iskamatlab yeh nahi tumhpe mere nazar nahi! Abh bata baat kya hai?" Crossing his arms.

"Woh prjct se related hai Arjun! Office aur ETF dono sambhalna bahut hetic horaha mujhe!" She replied lying to him.

"Toh kuch din off kyu nahi leti tum?" He said with concern

"Arjun! Aap aur shree dono office nahi arrahe aise mei team ek aur member ki off lena afford nahi karsaktha!"

"Aur aap stress mat lo, kuch din ki baat prjct final stage mei hai khatam ho jayegi toh free hojaungi!" she assured him. "Shree kaha hai?"

"Woh apne doston ke saath khelraha! Puri tarah theek hogaye woh bas todasa weakness abhi bhi hai!"

"Shukar hai! Toh aapdono office kabse rejoin honghe!"

"Pata nahi! Mei dekhta huh do din mei leaves khatam hoga! Bas Chote ko phirse ETF mei kaam karne ki baat mujhe acha nahi lagraha! Par woh mere baat nahi maneghe!" Arjun frowned as he don't want his brother to continue his job.

"Arjun jyada mat sochiye! Shree ko khud ka faisla lene dijiye!" Nodding he pulled her into his arms, kissing her cheeks.

Placing her head on his chest, she sighed as his mind was diverted, "Sorry Arjun!"

Otherside shikender gazed at Sakshi's photo with lust, obsessed, "Sakshi Anand! Bahut tadpai tum mujhe!" Recalled how he got her identity when one of the goon whom the team arrested during child trafficking fiasco got bailed. He initially wanted to get info on the person due to whom Pathan was arrested, asked him to make a sketch and seeing it he was stunned inturn when the person told that behind whom he is mad she is responsible for Pathan's arrest and she is ETF member.

"Kya banadi tum ne mujhe apni diwangi mei! Mei toh tumhe marna chahta! aur abh tumhe hih phool bhejraha huh! Agar Tumhari khimat pathan hai toh woh bhi chodne keliye tyaar huh bas tum meri hojao, aur mei tumhe hasil karkhe rakhunga!" He smirked caressing her face in the photo with a mad laugh.

Thank you for the PM 🤗

Nice and unique bhabhi-dewar combos (Ayesha-Kabir/Arjun, Sakshi-Shree/Ali, Liza-Virat/Nirvan??, Riya-Manik/Sameer??🤔). Superb force to reckon with.

Sameer toh phir bhi Shree ke sath milkar apne ander ke bachche ko zinda rakha hain but Kabir aur Arjun?

Kabir and Sameer two strong hold to keep things together.

1. Looks like Sikander is a master of disguise; is Sanjay Goenka his true identity? What is he upto?

2. Sakshi should confide with someone, this is serious. First the panick attacks and now the secret admirer threatening to expose her identity.

3. Virender seems to have a plan in place. Will the Udaipur Wedding shift focus and target away from Rawte's to trap the bad guys??

Good going! Take care and Stay safe.

Chapter-54

Next day Sakshi upon receiving flowers got very angry, as she is very disturbed and snapped at everyone in the office for not keeping her things properly who were stunned. Soon it reached Sameer.

"Choti, baat kya hai? Aajkal tera dyaan kaha rehta jabdekho laptop mei gusse rehthi hoh, koi project bhi toh nahi hai! Aur aaj sab pe chilla rahe hoh kya hua? Itna stress kyu lerahe hoh!" Sam questioned worried about her as she would never raise her voice on anyone!

"Kuch nahi bhai! Aap pareshan mat hojayiye!" She mumbled not ready to reveal.

"Sakshi! Batao kya chal raha! Humsab tumhari madat karna chahte!" Ayesha kept hand on her head. But she kept mum, her worry was her brother who would react and when it reaches Arjun, who is already worried about shree would take stress which may effect his health.

Knowing how to bring truth out of her, Sam kneeled before her taking her hands, "Choti! Mei janta huh tum sab ko tension nahi dena chahti! Khaskar Arjun aur shree ko, par yeh bhai abhi zinda hai, mujhe batao kuch bhi hoh hum saath mei deal karthe jaise humesha karthe hai! Jiju bhi toh hai!"

"Batao mujhe kyu itne stress mei hoh? Kisine kuch kaha?" Sakshi nodded her head in no, growing up she received many proposals in school, college but she never got afraid as her heart already belonged to Arjun, and also in school shree and his friends would take care of it, before it reached Arjun. In London, Mike who was her partner would take care of it but first time she was afraid.

"Choti! Tujhe Shree ki kasam batao!" Sam words brought her out of thoughts, "Bhai! Bacha hai woh uske kasam kyu lerahe aap!" She looked at him in disbelief.

"Kyunki tum apne bete ki kasam kabhi nahi talthi! Abh bata kya hua?" Sam stared at her. Defeated she glanced at him then at others, "Sakshi! Agar tum chahti toh humsab bahar jaate, apne bhai se baat karo!" Ayesha said but she shook her head, "iski koi jarurat nahi! Tumsab bhi meri parivaar hoh aur bhai ke gusse ko kabhu mei rakhne keliye tumhe rehna hoga!" Her words stunned sam who got up immediately.

"Bhai! Wada kijiye aap Arjun se kuch nahi bolenghe joh mei batane wali!" She asked.

"Choti, aisa kounsi baat hai Arjun se chupana chahti tum! Hum already bahut badi baat usse chuprahe, jante hoh na!" reminding her about panic attacks. He knew she experienced many in these days as Arjun was not sleeping with her.

Sakshi fidgeted with her duppata, "Janti huh par Shree ko Arjun ki jarurat hai, dekhe na aap agar Arjun paas nahi hotha woh kitna dar raha hai aajkal! Yeh sab chodiye aur wada kijiye Arjun se kuch nahi bolenghe aap!"

"Pehle tum batao uske baad dekhte hai!" Sam replied adamantly. With a sigh she told him everything right from start. Sam clenched his fist in anger, when she finished he banged his hand on the table startling everyone.

"Bhai/ Sameer/ Sir!" All yelled at him but Sam catching Sakshi elbow shook her, "Itni badi baat humse chupani ki jarurat kyu padi tumhe! Bolo sakshi!"

"Itne samai se koi tumhe stalk karraha, Hardin flowers bejraha aur humhe yeh baat nahi batai tumne! Abh usse tumhara ETF mei kaam karne ke baare mei bhi pata chala, jab ki koi tumhare bare mei nahi jante! Uske baad toh tumhe humhare paas ane chahiye na, yeh joh koi bhi hai woh bahut dangerous hai!" Sam shouted on her.

"Bhai! Meri baat suniye!" She pleaded with tears but he shook his head, "Nahi! Kuch mat kaho tum! Arjun ki chodo, pehle mere gusse ki samna karo! Do you even have any idea tumhara identity risk mei hai aur humhe iska koi kabhar nahi!" Leaving her hand he took his mobile and called Kabir barking to come there asap!

"Bhai! Please jiju ko iss baat se dur rakhiye!" As he will be very angry.

"Kabhi nahi! Kabir ko bhi uthna hih hakh hai jitna mujhe! Usse bhi pata chale, tum kitni badi baat humsab se chupai!" He gritted his teeth with a stern glare. No one said a word, after sometime Kabir came inside hurriedly, "Sam! Kya hua? Sab theek haina!"

"Usse pucho! Kya hua!" Sam pointed at sakshi who is looking down not having courage to meet his eyes.

Kabir looking at her, then at Sam understood whatever it is its very serious, "Sakshi! Baat kya hai?" He asked in stern tone.

But Sam not giving her any chance said everything which angered Kabir, who glared at her, "What the hell Sakshi! Itni badi baat humsabse chupane ki himmat bhi kaise hui tumhari! Bas bahut hogaya, aaj Arjun ko sab batana hih hoga right from your panicattacks to this!" He yelled shocking her.

"Jiju! Please Arjun ko nahi bata sakthi mei! Woh bahut pareshan hai!" She pleaded with tears but Kabir shook his head and stood firm in his decision. Catching her wrist, "Nahi choti! Aaj tak tumhari baat issliye mana kyunki Arjun ko guilt na hoh! Par aaj nahi! Itni badi baat hum chah karbhi nahi chupasakthe!" He started dragging her but halted as she blurted out, "Rukhjayiye Jiju! Apko meri kasam!"

"Sakshi!" Sam yelled from behind but looking at them both, "I know aap dono bahut gusse mei hai aur hona bhi chahiye! Par yeh baat aap Arjun yaa shree ko nahi bolenghe! Aap dono ko meri kasam!" She whispered keeping their hands on her head, " smajne ki koshish karo na aap dono! Arjun bahut kamzor padh chuka hai Shree ke halath se! Mei apne baat batake unhe aur dard nahi dena nahi chahti! Plzz bhai! jiju!" She pleaded.

Both glanced at eachother and sighed, "Theek hai nahi bolenghe!"

Sakshi nodded with relief, "Mei yeh nahi kehrahi ki mujhe dar nahi lagraha bahut lagrahi, par Shree abhi abhi recover horaha woh bhi Arjun ke karan, agar aise mei unhe yeh sab pata chale toh shree tension lega aur Arjun bhi! Issliye unhse jhoot bhi boli thi meine kal!"

"Par choti yeh hai kaun? Tum jante hoh?" Sam questioned her.

"Nahi bhai! Mujhe nahi pata kaun mere peecha karrahe aur koi andaza bhi nahi lagasaktha!" She shook her head.

"Yeh sab kabse start hua choti?" Kabir asked her.

"Jabse mei London meet se wapas ayi tabse! Mei pehle utna dyaan nahi diya kyunki mujhe laga koi secret admirer hoga aur staff se kaha ki aage se mere paas bina naam ke bouquet aya toh bahar pekhne ka! Mei toh roj office bhi nahi jati na aur kuchdino se itna sabkuch hua Mei toh yeh baat bhul bhi gai, lekin achanak kuchdin se ETF pe bhi flowers ane laga! Issliye mei itna pareshan thi!" She said.

Kabir taking her into his embrace, "Shh! Choti! Daro mat! Humsab haina kuch nahi hone denghe tujhe!" He whispered kissing her head.

"Mujhe bahut darlagraha jiju!" She cried feeling safe in his arms. Sam who was watching them, moved stroking her hairs softly, "Choti! Humsab haina! Kuch nahi hoga! Bhul gai tumhara bhai mumbai crime branch ke head hai! Joh koi bhi tumhe stalk karraha usse hum jarur dundhenghe!"

She nodded feeling light after confinding in them.

They all returned home early as there was no case! Entering inside they saw Arpita and Gayatri having dejected face moved towards them!

"Maa! Choti maa! Kya hua aapdono aise kyu beithe hai!" Sakshi questioned with worry

"Aur hum kya kare Sakshi! Yeh dono bhai mujhe pagal kardiya!" Arpita huffed with irritation.

"Kya hua? Batayiye toh sahi!"

"Arjun! Shree ko aram karne bolrahe tey aur woh aram karne bajae game khelne par lagaya!" Gayatri replied.

"Aaage mei batata huh! Arjun ko gussa aya aur shree par bhadkhe!" Sam said.

"Aur utla shree ne kuch na kuch kaha hoga jiske karan Arjun uske phone aur laptop dono seize kardiya!" Kabir stated to which they nodded.

All sighed as it's everyday drama, "Yeh toh har baar hotha hih raha! Phir aapdono kyu pareshan hai!" Sakshi asked.

"Kyunki dono muh phulake, Apne Apne kamre bandh karke beith gaye!" they replied dejectedly.

Shaking her head, "Bhai aapdono shree ko dekhiye! Mei Arjun ko dekhti huh!" saying she moved not noticing the teasing smile of their mom's

Checking in the room they met in midway, "Bhai Arjun room mei nahi hai!"

"Chote bhi nahi!" They replied.

"Yeh dono Badimaa ko pareshan karke kaha gaye!" Sam huffed.

"Bhai ek baar home theatre mei check karthe!" With that they moved towards other floor. Opening the door they glared at both who were sleeping peacefully cuddled with eachother, and the movie was going on but without volume!

"Waah! Dono mahashay waha Badimaa ko pareshan karkhe yaha sukoon ke neendh leerahe! Abhi bata tha huh!" He scowled at them stepping inside.

"Bhai rehne dho na dekhiye kitne cute lagrahe!" Sakshi whispered taking a photo of them.

"Haa tumhe tumhara pati aur beta cute hih lagega! Chupraho choti!" Kabir mumbled shaking his head.

Sam standing near them, a smile crept of his face as after long time he is seeing calmness on Arjun's face stroked his hair softly then at Shree who cuddled Arjun by placing head on his chest and in protective arms of his brother.

Looking at them for fewminutes he increased the volume suddenly due to which both got up, shree shouting, "Ahhhh! Bhookamp! Bachao!!"

Sam-bir rolled their eyes at his noutanki! Who is jumping on the seats with eyes n ears closed while Arjun glared at Sam for disturbing his sleep lowered the volume, "Pagal hogaye kya!"

Ignoring him Sam caught Shree's elbow, "Bas kar! Koi bhookamp wookamp nahi aya! Ankhe khol aur dekh! Aur yeh bandar ki tarah khudna bandh kar!" He chided.

Opening his one eye slightly he looked around removed the hands from ears, sighed fully opening his eyes gave a sheepish smile, "Woh mujhe laga...."

"Haa! Humhe pata hai tumhe kya laga! Noutankbaz! Utro neeche!" Kabir chuckled shaking his head.

Stepping down he sat with a pout, "Meri achi kasi neendh karab kiya aaplog!"

Knocking his head, "Acha maharaj ki neendh karab hogai!" When he nodded Sam glared at him, "Acha hua!" which made him whine, "Bhaiyaaa dekhonaa!"

Shaking his head, "Sam! Seedhe tarah uthasakthe na agar woh darjata toh?" Arjun looked at him.

"Tum dono yeh batao Badimaa ko pareshan karkhe phir yaha sukoon ke neendh lerahe!" Sam raised his eyebrow.

Hearing it Shree giggled, "Ohh! Bhai, hum toh mom ke samne natak karrahe tey! Mujhe bahut bore lagraha tha toh unke saath masti karrahe tey!"

The three looked at them both as if they had grown horns, "Acha!"

"Haa! Aur mom bhi yeh janti humdono unhe pareshan karrahe jaanbuchke!" Arjun shook his head.

"Phir badimaa aise kyu boli humhe!" Kabir mumbled.

Hearing it Shree started laughing loudly confusing the trio, "Abh issmei hasne ki kya baat hai!" Sam grumbled giving a glare.

"Mujhe ghoorne se kya hoga! Mom ne aap teenon ko acha mazaa chakaya!" He chuckled, while the three looked at eachother.

"Sach mei!" Arjun shook his head with a soft smile.

The three realising they were pranked by their mothers laughed shaking their heads who were joined by Arjun n shree!

Kabir moving towards shree, "Kaisa hai tumhara tabeeth abh?" taking his wrist, "Kuch weakness ya kuch aur hai!"

Shaking his head, "Jiju aap bekar mei pareshan karthe hoh! Subah bhi check karke gaye na aap! Mei bilkul theek huh! aaplog hi mujhe ghar se bahar jane nahi derahe!" He grumbled.

"Kyunki humhe chinta hoti hai!" He replied checking his eyes who rolled them.

"Aur kuch din chote! Humsab keliye!" He said. Shree nodded as he knew how much his condition affected them and scared they are because of it and asking him to rest is for their benefit rather than him, kept quiet not making a issue.

Arpita, Gayatri noticing them coming down laughed grabbing their attention. Going towards them, "Badimaa! mom! Not fair! Aapdono milke humpe prank kiya!" Sam sulked.

"Toh keval tum bachon hih sab masti karsakthe hum kyu nahi!" They replied with a smirk.

Arjun moved aside as he got a call, still keeping a eye on Shree while the others were simply time passing talking with eachother.

Suddenly, Sam remembered something, "Choti! Meine tumhe ek file dhi na woh kaha hai?"

Recalling it, which was very important file, "Haa bhai! Woh meri kamre mei hai! Mei abhi lekar athi huh!" She got up but shree beat her, "Tum Rukho mei lekar atha huh!" with that he ran not hearing their yells.

"Yeh ladka kab sudrega!" Sam slammed his hand on forehead. Shree came back giving a sheepish smile, "Bhai kounsa file?"

"Pehle yeh batao kitni baar mana kiye seedhion pe bhagne se!" Sam eyed sternly

"Bhai jane dijiyena! Batayiye kounsi file!" He asked. "Shree! Table par hih rakhi meine! Tum pehchan loge!" Sakshi replied who nodded and went from there, while others shook their head.

Coming inside Shree saw the described file on the table picked it! He was about to exit but his eye caught something on the table turned his full attention on it. Keeping the file down, "Yeh kya hai?" and picked up the mobile, "Aise mobile ghar mei kisike paas nahi hai!" He frowned opening it.

"Shayad kisi servant ki hoga dekhta huh!" With that he started checking it. Checking call records he understood it's not any servant, curiosity got better of him and opened recent conversations. Noticing a video he clicked on to play but as soon as he realised what it is he dropped the phone shivering, shook his head frantically, "Nahi!" closing his ears and eyes trying to forget the torture.

Arjun who ended the call got an uneasy feeling glanced at his family, upon not finding shree his uneasiness grew, asked, "Chote kaha hai?" in panic.

"File lane tumhare kamre mei gaye, par abhtak toh ana chahiye bahut time hogaya!" sam infromed looking at stairs with worry.

Arjun turned and ran upstairs dashed with shree who was coming down hurridely steading him, "Bacha tum theek hoh?"

without looking into his eyes, "Haa! bhaiya mei theek huh mujhe kya hoga?" He replied. others who followed Arjun stood not interfering. Arjun lifting shree's chin stared at his face got angry as his eyes were red, " phir tere ankh laal kyu hai? kuch hua kya?"

" Kuch nahi hua, Mei file lane gaya par mujhe washroom jana tha! tabbi muh dothe wakt ankh mei soap chalagaya, jiske karan ankh laal hogai!" He replied giving the file to sam, suddenly he was pulled into hug by Arjun, " Chote!Mei dar gaya patanahi kyu lekin ek ajeebsa ehsaas horaha tha ki tu takleef mei!" mumbling he kissed Shree's head who wrapped his arms around Arjun feeling safe. No one said a word but Arjun frowned when shree tightened his grip who was controlling himself to remove those visions from his head.

"Arjun! tum na kamaka tension lete hoh! humhe bhi tensed karthe hoh. Chote bilkul theek hai!" Kabir interferred stepping beside him, "Chalo neeche agar badimaa ya koi ghar ke bade humhe aise dekhliye toh ghabrajayenge!"

all nodded and came down, Shree sat beside Arjun not leaving his hold on him, soon the team joined and they started disvussing random things which relaxed shree who involved talking with them. Kabir who was looking at shree intently checked his pulse secretly which he mastered long back frowned immediately but masked it. This didnot go unnoticed by Arjun but he kept quiet, not to draw attention.

Kabir not able to involve stood leaving the conversation making a excuse. He went to pool side to be alone but still he has eye on shree whom he can see from there. " achanak pulse drop kaise hosaktha?"

Arjun who followed him, " Kabir, yeh kya bolrahe hoh tum?" he asked listening to his words.

"Arjun mei toh usko todhider pehle hih check kiya! bilkul theek tey! aur abh uski pulse bahut low hogai aur haath bhi tande padchuke uske! Bina wajeh suddenly pulse drop nahi hota!" he mumbled still looking at shree.

"Pata nahi kabir! Mere dil abhi mane ko tyaar nahi ki woh theek hai! jab hug karraha tha, mujhe aisa laga hih woh chupna chahte hai!" Arjun mumbled closing his eyes.

In the night, Shree knocked on the study door, knowing his brothers are inside who would get angry if he barges inside as they may be in important discussion, "Bhai kya mei andar ajao!"

Sam and the other two who were in deep discussion startled, "Haa! Chote ajao!"

As he came, Arjun turned to face him, "Baat kya hai chote ki tu mere kamre mei ane tak nahi wait karsakha! Kitni baar kaha agar hum study mei hai toh kuch importance kaam mei busy honghe aur tu usmei nahi interfere karskatha! Phir kyu aya yaha?"

"Bhaiya woh.." he stammered nervously, Arjun sighed, "Bacha mei naraz nahi huh! Aapko aram karne tey na toh kyu aye yaha?"

"Bhai toh bahut gusse mei hai, aisa kya baat horahe ki bhai ki mood itna karab hogaya!" Thinking he gave a small shake, "Agar mei phirse kaam pe jane ki baat karunga toh mujhe nahi chodenge! Chal shree kuch bahana bann!"

The three looked at him oddly, Kabir waving his hand, "Chote! Chote sunnah raha hai tu?"

Coming out of the trance, "Haa jiju!" stammering nervously.

"Kabse bhularahe kaha kho gaya tu? Aur Bata kyu aye yaha?" Arjun questioned him.

"Woh ... Mujhe bhook lagi!" He blurted suprising them!

"Chote! Tu abhi toh dinner kiya phir bhook kyu lagraha?" Arjun stood up.

" Woh mei vomit kardiya tha!" He said slowly which was true.

"Kya? tujhe utli horaha aur tu mujhe bataya nahi! Tumhe bhukar toh nahi na!" Arjun checked his forehead.

"Bhaiya! Mei theek huh!" he whined removing his hand.

"Kya khaak theek hoh? Utli horaha tha aur batana theek nahi samja! Abh chup raho!" Kabir scolded taking his wrist. Shree rolled his eyes, "Yeh kaha musibat mei fhasa, shree gadhe tujhe koi aur bahana yaad nahi aya, yeh kyu bataya!, kuch aur bahana bana lete!!" He scolded himself, his self cursing stopped when kabir said "Arjun tu isse kamre mei leke jaa! Mei injection leke atha huh!"

Hearing it, he shouted "Nahi! Bhaiya injection nahi! Mei bilkul theek huh mujhe bas bhuk lagi! Agar aap nahi banoage toh mei jake so jata huh par injection nahi!" he pleaded giving puppy eyes.

Shaking their heads at his drama, "Acha theek hai! Chalo kuch banadeta huh!" Arjun replied.

Coming into kitchen he immediately sat on the kitchen counter, "Chalo chalo jaldi haath chalao mujhe bahut bhook lagi hai!" he ordered waving his legs.

"Pehle yeh toh bata kya khana hai tujhe!"

"Kuch bhi lekin woh sada hua ghas phus nahi!"' he grumbled as nowdays he was only given healthy food to eat. "Ek baar woh Dr Ishani mere samne aye sabak shikake rahunga mei! Aisa diet chart banadi ki mere fav khane tak nahi khane derahe abh!"

"Kya soch rahe hoh chote!" Sam asked seeing him deep in thoughts.

"Dr Ishani se badala!" He blurted before he could say immediately covered his mouth while the three gave him a firm look.

"Woh mei aise hih boldiya tha!" He giggled nervously.

The three made pasta and gave it to shree who looked at them in disbelief, "Issmei bhi yeh ghas dalne ki kya jarurat hai!"

"Chote chup chap kha! Raat bahut hogai sona nahi tujhe!" Arjun crossed his arms giving a firm look.

Taking the spoon he sided broccoli and babycorns, Capsicum aside, "Abh theek hai!" and took a bite.

Shaking their heads, Arjun took the plate again mixing everything, forwarded the spoon, "abh khaa! Agar aise side mei rakhna hih hai toh dalne ka kya faida!"

"Toh kisine bola dalne keliye!" He pouted folding his arms. "Mujhe yeh sab pasand nahi!"

"Lekin khana toh padega! Agar nahi toh mei tujhe injection lagalungha roj!" Kabir warned showing his eyes.

Shree shook his head quickly taking the bite from Arjun's hand, who hid their smiles! eating three fourths, "Bhaiya bas mera peth bargaya! Abh aur nahi!"

"Theek hai! Ye le paani!" Arjun handed him the glass while Sam took the plate and started eating as even he felt hungry.

"Sam! Agar tujhe bhi bhook lagi toh bata dena chahiye na, chote ke jhota kyu kha rahe hoh?"

"Woh aur mei alag kaha! Mera bhai ke jhoota hih toh kha raha mei waise bhi iske adhe food humhe hih complete karna padtha!" He said going towards sink and washed the plate. Though they had servants they would never burden them if they cook late nights!

Arjun noticed shree droopy eyes, shook him, "Chalo! Room mei Chalke sothe hai!"

Tucking him, Arjun sat beside ruffling his kissed his forehead, "Goodnight bachu!"

Once he slept the three became worried, "Kabir isko ulti kyu horaha hai phirse!" Sam questioned.

"Mujhe bhi kuch samaj nahi araha! Meine vitamin supplements ke alawa sab medicines bandh kiya! Humse chuparaha lekin he is clearly in stress!" Kabir mumbled.

"Acha Arjun tum iske saath raho! Hum chalthe hai!" Both left the room.

All became busy with works while Sam was trying to get info on the person who was sending flowers.

Two days after, The team was discussing a important case, when a person entered with a flower bouquet.

Seeing it Sam gave a murderous glare, "yeh kya hai?"

"Sir!" The person shivered, "Miss Sakshi keliye gift hai!" he said with a stammer.

"Yeh ETF office hai! Kisike jagir nahi! Himmat bhi kaise huyi ander anekeliye! Security security!" He called furiously.

"Sorry sir! Mujhe nahi pata mei abhi abhi iss naukari mei join hua huh! Please mujhe arrest mat kijiye, meri naukari chali jayegi! Mere parivaar sadak par ajayegi! Ayinda aise galti kabhi nahi karunga!" The person pleaded begged folding his hands.

Sakshi who is looking at him, felt as bad as he is only doing his work, stood taking the bouquet, "Aap jao! Koi kuch nahi bolega!"

The person thanking immediately ran from there afraid of Sam's anger.

"Sakshi kyu rokha tumne?" Ayesha questioned with confusion.

"Uska galti nahi! Bas apne kaam karraha tha!" She replied, glared at flowers frowned as her eye caught a card in the bouquet took it out. Reading it her eyes became red in anger threw it on the floor shocking everyone! But they got heart attack as it fell near someone whom they least expected.
