The worst mistake

Returning to the team

"Mahi bhai he has done a mistake and i think we should punish him by not talking to him for sometime. Believe me it is just as hurtful for us but wouldn't you agree that he did a big mistake?" Virat asked mahi.

Mahi nodded hesitantly. Yes harry did do a mistake by speaking all those things in that useless show but for some reason mahi didn't want to stop talking to him.
Especially now that they would share a room with each other, since there was no other room available and mahi had said that after the ban was lifted, harry could stay in his room.

But now virat and ro were asking him to not talk to him or talk to him professionally for some time to teach him a lesson.
His mind agreed with virat but his heart said that he had gotten enough lesson and all he needed for now was everyone's support.
But virat and ro seemed determined on giving harry a cold shoulder and he knew that they loved harry very much and were doing all that so that this would not be repeated in the future.

"He is coming today, right?" Mahi asked them and they nodded.
"Bhai please it's for sometime only. He needs to learn now that he is a big cricketer and he can't just say anything anywhere" ro said seeing uncertainty in mahi's eyes.

Mahi just nodded and said "yeah i know." Then to change the topic he added "common now let's go and have lunch everyone must be waiting for us."

They went and had lunch with others. Virat and rohit had decided to not include others in their plans, they could do whatever they want, talk with him or give him a cold shoulder for sometime.

In evening, mahi got the news that harry had reached the airport and would be coming soon. He tried to prepare himself to not talk to harry, but he knew it was going to be very hard.

After sometime, harry reached the hotel. He went on the second floor as he was already informed which room he and mahi were going to stay in.
He took a deep breath and knocked on the door. Mahi knew it was harry and had to prepare himself one last time before opening the door.

He saw harry standing outside smiling at him a little, looking at him with hopeful eyes that maybe his brother would hug him and forgive him. But to Harry's horror, mahi didn't hug him, just smiled a little and let him in.
Harry felt so disappointed that mahi didn't even acknowledge him properly. He had thought that if mahi bhai had told that he could sleep in his room that meant he had forgiven him and had come with full hope only to realize that he was still not forgiven by one of the most important people in his life.

Before harry could say anything, mahi said "i have some work i am going out." And left.
Harry thought that mahi bhai was angry on him and hated him that's why he left without even talking properly but mahi was not being able to handle not talking with harry and he knew if he stayed with him for sometime more, he would give up and hug him. Mahi felt like he wasn't punishing harry but punishing himself.

As mahi went out, he saw virat.
"Has he come?" Virat asked.
Mahi nodded.
"Mahi bhai i know it is hard but...."
"It's okay cheeku, i know" mahi said quickly. "But at least go and greet him, it's your duty as a captain, doesn't matter if you are talking or not."
"Yeah" vi said and went towards mahi's room.

Harry was unpacking his bag, hurt that mahi wasn't talking to him. He was feeling like he might cry, but already after he was banned he had cried enough regretting every word he had said.
He was so busy thinking about mahi's behaviour that he didn't notice vi entering.

He only noticed him when vi fake coughed to get his attention.
Harry turned around to see virat standing there with a neutral face. No anger, no happiness.

"I am captain so it's my duty to come and greet you, so hi." Virat said with no emotions on his face.
"Hello virat" harry said his voice breaking hearing virat's words.
"You have to join for dinner at 8:30 pm." Virat said and quickly went away.

Harry sat on the bed and let few tears roll down as he realized that another important person of his life is also angry with him. After seeing them he also realized that rohit would also not talk with him because if he was, then he would have either come till now or he would have convinced mahi bhai and Virat to forgive him.

Suddenly he got a call form the only person he could share his turmoil with, krunal.
He quickly picked it up and couldn't help but cry.
"Harry what happened, are you alright?" Krunal asked worried and Harry revealed everything to him.
"It's alright harry everything will be alright, they will forgive you soon" krunal said and tried to calm a crying harry.

Then to divert his attention, krunal changed the topic and they started to talk about other things and Harry calmed down a little bit.
