Another normal day in lockdown for the ICT players with respective IPL teams.
Another day in boredom.
For once the great Rohit Sharma wasn't sleeping but instead was unusually active on Instagram. When he stumbled upon his best friend's post.
And no he was not stalking Virat's profile from his public account. Much to contrary beliefs, Rohit did follow his best friend from a private account.
Virat had happened to post a picture that day. A picture that caused Rohit to yell on the top of his lungs and Ritika to glare at him.
"Can you keep it down Ro, or you come here and put Sam to sleep," Ritika shouted annoyed.
"I can't keep it down Ritsy! Come see this!" Rohit yelled back excited.
Knowing that Ro isn't going to shush until she go sees what he's on about, Ritsy walks over and takes a peek into his phone.
"OMG! Anu and Vi are expecting! I knew it, she seemed so different these days!" Ritika ranted equally as excited quite forgetting about Sam's sleep.
"Sam come here! Vi Chachu has a gift for you!" Rohit yelled at Samaira completely forgetting his daughter is only a year old.
Hearing the words 'gift' and 'Vi Chachu' Sam bobbled over to her parents happily and questioned "Vi Chu" in her baby voice.
"Yes baby your Vi Chu," Ritika said happily while picking up her daughter.
"Wait wait but he didn't tell me! Right yeah who am I too him, I had to find out through Instagram!" Ro said sulkily making Ritika roll her eyes at her husband's stupidity.
"Ro call Vi right now." Not wanting to deal with an annoyed husband right now.
Ro obliged immediately, not that he didn't want to call his best friend too.
"Heyaaaa Roooo!!!" Vi yelled as soon as he picked up the video call.
"Vi you traitor! You didn't even tell me that you were expecting!" Ro ranted out quite annoyed.
"Technically it's Anu that's expecting and not me," Virat said cheekily causing Ritika, Rohit and Anushka to cringe.
"Ew Vi, that was cringe!" Rohit said scrunching his face in disgust.
"Agreed Ro!" Anushka laughed from behind.
"Ayyee Anu congratulations! I knew it all along you should've known you can't hide it from me!" Ritika scolded playfully.
At this point it Sam had started tugging onto Ritika's dress pointing towards the phone.
"Vi Chu," Sam babbled happily while clapping her hands
"Hi sammy boo! Look I got you a teddy bear" Virat babbled back in the same baby tone.
"Sammy, Vi Chu is gifting you and Aarya a playing partner," Ro piped in and Samaira clapped again not understanding anything her father was trying to tell her.
"We're so happy for you Anu and Vi! Anyways, you two talk and good luck handling this angry panda," Ritika said cheekily to Virat and Virat looked back in confusion.
Chuckling, she left from there leaving the two best friends to have a conversation they were both itching to have.
"I'm not talking to you!" Rohit whined childishly.
"Huh? What did I do now?" Virat asked quite confused.
"You told Instagram before you told me," Rohit said sulkily, pulling a pout.
