'I hope you have finally understood what I mean. Because now I tired, you heard that tired. I have been explaining the same thing to you for the past three chapters! If we stretch this any longer the readers will throw tomatoes at the poor author' Shrutkirti was now completely exhausted, her round face seemed to droop down a lit. 'Throwing tomatoes sounds fun!' said Shatrughan popping out of nowhere. Shrutkirti just glared at him or so she thought, she looked more like a cute kitty with bigs eyes. 'Laksh Bhaiya?' No answer. 'LAKSH BHAIYA!' she yelled finally loosing her cool. Lakshman just snapped his head in her direction and looked as clueless as a baby sea turtle. 'Well, have you understood that you have feelings-' Laksh cut her short with a gesture of his hands. It sounds irritating to hear that again and again. Just because he accepted his feelings doesn't he liked it. Shrutkirti raised a eyebrow having still not gotten her answer. 'Yeah yeah! I understood Professor Kirti.' No. Shrutkirti wasn't satisfied by just that. She needs more affirmation...right out of his own mouth..after all she had a bet with Shatrughan.. oopies Ripudaman and well she didn't wish to die unmarried because of some idiot. 'And what are you gonna do about it?' Laksh got up from where he had stumbled earlier, you know due to emotion overflow, and gave Shrutkirti his traditional resting bitch face. 'I will tell Mila about it. I understood, now pls do me a favour and stopping me about this every two seconds'

Lakshman had expected a fight. And shouting. A lot of shouting. And can you blame him, Kirti was yelling him with all the power in her thorat just minutes ago. But no, Shrutkirti just smiled. 'Okay, best of luck' so the baby sister was back. But Shatrughan disagreed with Laksh. Does he even have anything else to do? For what reason does he hate his own twin so much?

Shatrughan- Hold on! You are gonna tell her..just like that? No preparations, no pep talks, no talking to yourself in the mirror?

Lakshman- Duh! Mila is my bestie. I can tell her any crap that comes to my brain without any hesitation.

Shatrughan- Are you sure? You look too confident for a guy going to propose.

Lakshman- First of all, I am NOT PROPOSING to Mila. I am just telling her how I feel. And secondly what's the worse that could happen she will call me a creep, say she hates me, slap me again whatsoever. We will go back to the bickering.

Shatrughan- That's suspicious. That's weird. How do we you are not just gonna play another prank on her.

Lakshman- Because I am not. Now stop bugging me. Otherwise I will stab you with my dagger until all your intestines come out.

'Laksh?' all three heads snapped back at once to see Ram standing at the door. 'Bhaiya?' said Lakshman in a sobbing-ish voice. 'How long have you been standing here?' asked Shrutkirti hoping her Love equations were still a secret. 'Long enough' Ram glared at Lakshman suspiciously and raised his eyebrow as if asking for an explanation. 'Bhaiya, it's not how you think it is' Lakshman said totally ashamed of himself (why ashamed you ask, well that's just dumb Laksh for you.) 'Oh I know how it is, just because me and Bharat weren't here, you thought you could get away with something like this.' By now Lakshman was internally dead and somehow he gathered some energy to ask for his brother's forgiveness. 'You weren't not threatening to stab me to death, were you? Then why are you ask for my forgiveness?' Lakshman's head shot up and he truly looked like he would burst into tears the next moment and Ram thought of this as an attempt to melt his anger away. No way! Ram was stern and adamant this time. Brotherly violence is a big no no and Laksh always almost always keeps threatening Shatrughan that he would kill him. And stabbing someone till there intestines come out, that was utterly disgusting to even think of. Well in Laksh's defense, Shatrughan also always almost always keeps annoying the crap out of Lakshman but brotherly violence was still a big no no. He cleared his thorat and squinted his eyes while glaring at Lakshman. 'Laksh you better stop threatening poor little Shatru like this. I know what you are going to say...he did this..he did that. It's okay Laksh. He is your younger brother, forgive him. Although I don't know how forgivable or unforgivable he is as I don't know what he did. I didn't hear your entire conversation.'
