Maan jumped off his bed and rushed to his brother's room. He dashed inside and without thinking he just blurted out the fact which he hadnt even confessed to himself yet. Without doing any more delay.. He voiced out his heart, his feelings finally..
"I Like her..!!!"
Though maan hadnt expected his brother to be shocked on hearing his confession, given how he already had a hint and used to tease him all the time... Still he was expecting him to be a little surprised at least.
But No.. His brother was neither shocked nor surprised..not at all! Instead.. His brother gave him a knowing look and teasing smirk...which in return, surprised him for sure!
"Wont u ask..who i am talking about..?"...
Maan asked feeling a little nervouess for some unknow reason.
"do i really need to..?"
..his brother raised his brows at him grinning widely...which kind of irritated maan..but he chose to ignore it.
"u knew about it already...how??" ..maan asked a little curious.
"Come on, it was so obivious..anyone could have guessed it. Wo toh bas tu hi ek duffer hai..jo itna time laga diya samajh ne me..!"..
Saying that his brother chuckled seeing his pouting & annoyed face.
Maan picked up a pillow and threw it on his brother's face..
"it isnt funny ok...!!
that made him to laugh loudly.. They had a little pillow fight, enjoying their special sibling's time & bond.
After that, they had some serious talks..
"when did u realised by the way..?"
..his brother asked and then maan told him everything..how he used to feel different about her, his confusion, his fears, his denial to his feelings, his ignoring her purposely, their fights and hurting her...then his regrate, his longing, realisation and accepting his feelings finally.
After listening everything..his brother asked the most important question..
"what about her..? Kya wo bhi tujhe pasannd karti hai..?"
..to which maan had no answer!
He had never thought about it before. He had been so confused himself that he never tried to knew her feeling about him.
And now as he thought about it... if there was even a slightest of possiblity that she too feels something for him..then his jerk like rude behaviour with her must have changed her mind &opinion about him!
His brother chided him for acting so stupid & ignoring the most important thing...her opinion/feelings.
Maan felt really sad realising the mistake he had made...but then his brother's words lifts up his hopes again..
"But i think she too likes u..!! Warna wo tujh jaise duffer ko itne bhav thodi na deti..!!"
**************************
"Uske ghar jaa ke mil le..best option hai.." ..his brother smiled winking naughtily.
"Han..aur jaa ke uske ghar walon ki maar khaun..haina.."..
Maan was annoyed at the stupid suggetion. Hearing him, his brother burst out laughing, irritating maan even more.
" pehle hi wo gussa hai..aur fir i dont even know.. how her family thinks about all these things.." ..
He sounded really concerened.
"fir toh bas ek hi option hai.." ..his brother sighed heavily.
"Kya..?"..maan asked feeling hopefull.
"Tu na..roz subh-sham uske ghar ke chakkar lagaya kar...shayad wo mil jaaye.." ..his brother said in a teasing tone.
"uska bhi koi fayda nahi.."..
Maan mumered to himself...without realising that his brother could hear him.
"What..what did u say..?" ..his brother eyed him curiously.
Maan realised what he has said and cursed himself.
"kuch bhi toh nahi.."..
He avoided looking at him, feeling concious...but his brother caught his lie instantly..
"Dont tell me..tu sach me uske ghar ke chakkar lagata hai..??"
..his brother gave him a shocked & surprised look.
Though maan wanted to deny at first..but then he changed his mind and confessed that how he was so restless to see her and had went to her house but that didnt worked.
"OMG..u are really madly in love with her..arent u..?" ..his brother was amazed.
"LOVE..??" ..maan asked surprised.
"yes..LOVE..!! U r in love my-dear-litle-idiot-brother.." ..his brother punched him on his arm playfully.
An amused smile came to maan's lips as he thought about this word called "LOVE" ..then shurgging his shoulders he replied honestly..
"I dont know..! I mean..i really dont know what love is..! I just know one thing...that i really like her a lot..truly. I like talking to her..i like being with her..and i want to be with her always.. Aur..agar issi ko pyaar kehte hai toh.. yes, may be, i am in LOVE WITH HER.. " ..
He smiled genuinely as he uttered those words.
His brother too smiled hearing his honest confession and ruffled Maan's hair affectionately and gave him a hug.
