Next day:
Mahira's POV:
Knock knock.
Some frequent knocks on my door interrupted my sleep. I fumbled out of bed with a groan and walked out to the door.
I opened it and it was Shardul, I rubbed my eyes and raised my eyebrows. I was in no mood to speak.
"Did you hear the news?", He asked. I just shook my head in a no. I really need to stop talking to rishab for so late.
"Aao everyone is sitting in the hall, and breakfast kar lo.", He said and I nodded and closed the door.
I quickly freshned up and changed into a baggy grey t-shirt and black jeans, I quickly combed my hair and kept it all open and went out to the hall.
"What happened guys?", I said taking a seat beside mahi bhai as usual. He turned his phone on and showed me a news headline.
"Varun Chakravarthy tested positive for covid 19.", I read the news loudly looked up.
"So what does this mean?", I asked them.
"For now, today's match has been postponed.", Said faf and I nodded.
"I think you should stay back and wait for bcci to arrange flights for you. Don't go on your own.", Shardul said and I could see the concern in his eyes, and tbh, I didn't know how to respond I was literally clueless.
"Seriously kya karu main? I anyway have to take two flights because if they'll drop me it'll be to Mumbai, and then wahan se I'll have to take a flight to ranchi on my own.", I explained looking down and mahi bhai kept his hand on my shoulder.
"Why do you need to go to mumbai? Something important left behind?", He asked me.
"Not really, I have my laptop and phone and important files and kapde to I have at my place.", I said and he nodded.
"Don't rush things, wait for a few days and think.", Mahi bhai said and I nodded.
"Come let's eat", sonu bhai said and we all walked to the dining table. I sat in between shardul and mahi bhai.
"Did you sleep late?", Shardul asked me.
"Yes. Kind of.", I replied.
"Achhe bachche jaldi sote hai.", Mahi bhai said. Why was he eavesdropping.
"I'm not a bachchi.", I replied.
"For me you are.", He said with a smile.
"Aur tum bachchon jaisi cute bhi ho.", Shardul said and I raised my eyebrows at him. Mahi bhai gave me a sly smile.
"Aap dono mera mazak uda rahe ho. You know kal raat main aur shreyas milkar Rishab ko bhi aise hi tease kar rahe the.", My overexcited self spilled it out. I'm glad deepak was sitting far away.
"Is that why you slept late?", Shardul asked, the smile on his face wasn't there anymore.
"No no. I was watching vampire diaries.", I had to lie obviously, I didn't want to hurt him.
"Oh nice. How is it?", He asked me and my tvd rant began.
"It's literally one of the best series ever. So it has this girl elena, who is the female lead. And stefan and damon two brothers, both of them are madly in love with elena. That's the main plot, but there are a lot of sub plots also which make it so interesting.", I vomitted out my love for tvd.
"Okay julie plec. Calm down.", Sam said, who was sitting beside shardul, I said that in a louder tone so no surprise he heard.
"You've seen it na. That's why you know Julie plec.", I asked and he chuckled.
