CONTINUATION

IN THE HANGER AREA

Before the cadets could leave to start their planning for the party they heard Karan saying, 'Cadets hold on pehle aap apna introduction de dijiye phir aap jaa sakte hai.'

Chitra came ahead and started with her introduction,' Hello sir I'm cadet #Chitra' Param gave a confused reaction was he gone for so long that people had added hashtag to their names.

'Kya aapka naam #Chitra hai? Bada hi alag naam hai' he said bemused. 'Arrey na na bhaiya naam is jhingoor ka naam toh Chitra hai bass isse har cheez ke saamne hashtag lagane ki aadat hogo.' Sanju said shaking her head in slight annoyment. '#Yes sir' replied Chitra cheerfully and stepped back.

Next came Bala, 'Mai hu Cadet Bala aur mujhe shaitan ka sala bulate hai' he said Param stood takenback again and that's when Karan said, ' Pehele chori karta tha isliye khudko shaitaan ka saala bulata hai' he said while crossing his arms across his chest and glaring at Bala who retreated back getting a little intimidated.

Next came Premji, 'Hum hai Cadet Premji, aapne hume 'Maa ke Poot serial mai toh dekha hi hoga' he said flaunting his inner SRK pose. 'Ji nahi maine nhi dekhi woh serial' Param said where as everyone giggled a bit.

Sumanji came forward, ' Cadet Sumanji sir.' Param looked a lil here and there and said 'Kaha hai Cadet Sumanji?' 'Hum hi sumanji, Sumanji Rajeshji Tiwari sir.' she replied. Param stood flabbergasted what a bunch of misfits had his brother landed up with he wondered.

Koel came ahead and introduced herself and said, 'Cadet Koel Roy sir' Finally someone who was straight to the chase thought Param. Sid came forward and said 'Cadet Siddhart Ganju reporting on duty sir.' Param nodded 'But you can call me Sid G, bro' 'I like you bro' replied Param. Sid looked at him as if he had suddenly grown a pair of horns on his ahead.

'Wait a moment mai aapko bro bula sakta hu?' Sid questioned him. 'Haa off training tum mujhe bro bula sakte ho.' Param said nonchalantly ' I love you bro' Sid said hugging Param who seemed taken back but none the less patted his back affectionately.

'Aap dole shole bro ke bade bhai hokar bhi unke tarah nhi ho' Sid said pouting at Karan who just rolled his eyes in an exasperated way. Param chuckled at the duo. And finally came Monami. 'Mai toh tumhe janta hu Monami.' Param said.

'Aap uss Monami ko jaante hai joh aapke bhai ki girlfriend hai, ab mai apna as a cadet introduction de rahi hu.' she replied Param was proud of his brother's choice she indeed knew how to keep her priorities in check. Karan smiled at Monami his eyes shining with pride and admiration for his girl.

'Cadet Dr. Monami Mahajan.' she said with a nod. Param nodded and smiled a bit. Mahajan seemed familiar to him but he brushed it off thinking it was a quiet common surname.

'Ok guys ab jab introduction ho chuke hai you can disperse.' Everyone left except Sid and Monu. Koel gave a nod and smile to Faizi and went away. Whilst the introductions where going on Koel had told Faizi about the party and he had given the permission to her for it. 'Bhai ab toh chale mess mai bohot bhuk lagi hai.' Faizi said whining a lil with hunger. 'Haa chalo.' Barkha said.

IN THE MESS

Everyone sat down for breakfast. 'Chachu aap mujhe khilauge' Baby asked cutely. 'Yeh bhi koi puchne ki baat hai bache.' Karan said. 'Dekh rahe ho Param kitna bigaad ke rakha hai Karan ne baby ko.' Barkha told Param who just chuckled at the angry pout his daughter made at his wife.

'Bhabhi ab toh moti billi bhi hai isse aur bigaadne, kyu choti billi?' Sid said 'Yes sid chachu' Baby said as she gave Monu a high five.

'Lekin chachu mai aap aur chachi ek team mai phir bhi aap thumb rule nhi bhuloge na.' 'Thumb rule kaunsa thumb rule baby.' Param asked all inquisitive.

'Offo papa mai batati hu aapko thumb rule yeh hai ki pehle baby phir monami.' she said pointing towards herself and then Monami. Karan fed her the last bite and wiped her face. Monami gave baby water to drink.

Param looked at them and saw how much love his daughter was getting. His heart swelled with happiness that despite him not being there his daughter wasn't abandoned but loved by all. Barkha rubbed her hand over his arm in a soothing way feeling his inner turmoil. He kept his hand over hers and smiled at her.

'Saumyaa' they heard a voice and Nikhil entered the mess. 'Saumya chal khelne aaj hum UNO khelte hai.' he told her and that's when he saw his pancake uncle.

'Hello pancake uncle kaise ho aap.' 'Hi champ mai bilkul theek hu aap kaise ho' Karan asked lovingly ruffling his hair. This kid definitely had Sid's habit of nicknaming Param thought.

'Nikhil inse mil yeh mere papa hai' baby told introducing Nikhil to Param. 'Hi buddy' Param said forwarding his hand for a fist bump. 'Kya mai aapko big pancake uncle bula sakta hu?' he asked cutely before going in for a fist bump. 'Big pancake uncle?' Param asked with an amused smile.

'Haa aap pancake uncle ke big brother ho na isliye.' Nikhil said looking at Karan and back at Param. 'Suree' Param replied. 'Yayy!!!' Nikhil cheered in excitement whereas everyone chuckled looking at the excited kid. 'Acha theek hai ab hum jaate hai chal Saumya.' 'Haa chal' and they took off.

'Big Pancake uncle?' Param said chuckling at the name. 'Bhaiya uski aadat hai sabko nickname se bulaane ka hume woh dodo uncle bulata hai, Karan ko pancake uncle.' Faizi said. 'Waise yeh academy mai kaise hai, academy mai toh bache allowed nhi hai na.' Param asked.

'Yeh Koel ka beta hai bhaiya.' Karan told him. 'Koel aur Nikhil mai baare mai hum aapko bata denge baadme.' Monami told. 'Arrey bhai uske pehele mujhe tum apne aur Karan ke baare mai toh batau !! Koel ke baare mai baadme phir kabhi bata dena ab toh mai yahi hu.' Param said.

'Aakhir dekhu toh sahi iss ke chakkaro mai kaise padi Monami.' Param said teasingly winking at the blushing couple.

'In mohatarma aur janabji ki kahani toh hum batyenge bhaiya.' Faizi said excitedly. 'Faizi sir if you don't mind mai bhi bataunga Monu aur Karan sir ki story.' Sid exclaimed.

'Arrey bhai naeki aur puch puch zaroor.' Faizi said and high fived Sid.

Karan facepalmed and took a seat back Monu just chuckled at his reaction and entwined their hands together. Karan smiled at it and pressed a small kiss on her hair, Monu sighed in content finally finding the missing warmth and peace.

'Arrey ruko sirji hum kuch khaane laato hai bohot dilchasp hone waali hogo yeh lovestory.' Sanju said getting up. 'Haa Sanju chal mai bhi aati hu.' Barkha stood and they left to get some snacks.

'Barkha jaldi aana yaar itna suspense bada rakha hai ki ab ruka nhi jaata.' Param said getting eager to listen to his brother's love story.

Karan and Monu looked and each other and just smiled. Things were getting back to normal, not normal but things were getting good nah better nope best!!!! Well unaware to them it was the silence before the storm or was it ?
