INNOCENT ELDER KID

08

Miran is on vacation with his friends but his mind is roaming around one person. His elder brother.

Miran's friend Kishan come there and frowned at the upset Miran.

Kishan - What happened buddy why this sad face?

Miran - nothing Kishan I'm just thinking.

Kishan chuckled - don't be like this? You know Nah it's our first assignment for the department. And also a secret one that's why we planned this vacation drama.

Miran in plain voice - yeah! I know the importance of this mission that's why I accepted to take a risk and come to this long distance from my brother. (Sad) I take a very hard time convincing him. I'm scared about my kitten's health now.

"Don't tell me you are missing your twin now! And are you serious about that kitten nickname? calling the devil as a kitten, that... You... (Laughing) Seriously, are you missing atharv no way?" He controlled his laughing after getting a very startling stare from Miran.

Kishan rolled his eyes - hey don't be like this yar. Atharv is a very well mature, expert than us in killing and winning the mission.

Miran sighed - I'm talking about my kitten, not about atharv.

"Who is this kitten now!?"

"My Manik bhaiyu"

Kishan is confused - he is your elder brother Nah? Why are you missing him? He is not a baby, come on bro.

Miran in bitterness closed his eyes - Can you please stop talking about something bullshit, giving me a reason to kill you?

Kishan gulped in fear, he had never seen his team buddy this much bothered.

"Sorry yar! Cool, I don't know much about your family. I just know you have an elder brother, he is the heir of __."

Miran in irritation - if you don't know something, avoid commenting about them in front of me. Mainly, about my Manik bhaiyu. And there is no way you are going to finish the sentence, or else I will murder you, man? (In firm) Manik is not any heir to this dangerous organization. We all never allow him near this side of our culture.

Kishan nods in knowledge, still, he is stunned but he can understand how much the elder child is important to the family and how much miran wants to protect him.

Miran composed himself after peeping at his buddy's guilty face. He realized, the boy didn't know anything about their family or his brother.

Miran in a natural tone - I'm sorry Kishan if I terrified you but the topic of our bhaiya is always very sensitive for us. I am grateful for your understanding of my words.

Kishan smiles - I'm surprised and talked back without knowing you and your bonding with your brother. I'm sorry but it's a new side from you, Miran. I have never seen you this much caring for someone, even if the person is younger than you.

Miran chuckled, In a threatening voice - don't dare to talk like this in front of any other members of my family. More importantly in front of atharv, I can not imagine how cruelly, he will kill you.

Kishan in widening look - but... Why? Why are you all babying him so much? Not in the wrong way, I'm asking out of curiosity man.

Miran sighed sadly - he did so much Kishan. So much more than we could repay.

Kishan's eyes soften to glance at the love and affection reflect on Miran's face.

"My brother is very healthy and his birth was a blessing for our family but When he is so small, he sacrificed his life to save our family. Still now, he is suffering from a very bad illness because of that. There is no cure for that. He should endure the pain daily, throughout his all lifetime."  He grasped himself  from a breakdown in presence of his teammate, that's a very unprofessional thing in his opinion. He took few deep breaths before continuing.

"Not only that  When I was born my brother is also a kid but he is the one who did all the comforting when I cried or was depressed without my mother. You know my mother is the ex-army. There was a rare time for us to meet our mother but we didn't feel any missing feelings because he was there for us to give us all the motherly love. ( sad sigh) He lost half of his childhood in treatment, half to treating us as his own child." He wiped his tears with a shivering breath.

The memories always made him more and more emotional.

"Not only for us but also for his all younger cousin siblings he did a very good job as a responsible elder brother. He never had any elder brother to pumper him when he is a child nor parent or grandparents to take care of him but he never let us overcome the same loneliness. Every night when we and our cousin siblings come after the hard training, he put us under his soft handling to smooth our pain without knowing what is happening behind him. He never knows how strong his younger is or what powers our family has. He always comes in front to protect us." He signed sadly before start speaking again.

Miran - he never needs to know anything about this dark phase. (In sad smile) there is a lot about him, kishan. I don't want to tell everything personal about his life without his consent. What the thing is! In the past, My kitten suffered enough. Now He deserves all love care and our pumper. We will care for him as a baby because he is the only baby in our family. We will protect him without a single hesitation.

Kishan touched miran's shoulder softy as comforting. Before He has never seen his friend,  this much soft. He begins to adore the brother's bonding.

"One day, I wish to see your bhaiyu. You two are very fortunate to have each other."

Miran smiled and whispered - we are blessed to have him.

After two days

In Malhotra mansion

Manik is walking left and right with tension - where is this idiot miran? He promised me, he will come today morning. Where is he?

His anger slowly turned to anxiety.

Because his brother assured to come today morning from his vacation but it's already night nine, there is no sign of his arrival or he is not responding manik's call.

Athu in a soft voice - Chotu! I think you should take your medicine and sleep. Stop calling his dead phone chotu! Because he is not answering your phone and you are freaking out so much is not good for your health. Maybe he is busy with any of his friends, he will call you back when he noticed your phone.

Manik glared at his younger brother with bloodshot eyes, he is starting to tear up in frustration and sensitivity.

He is angry with himself for allowing his miran to vacation.

Athu is troubled, so much anger and frustration are not good for Manik. From morning his brother is bothering himself with overthinking.

Since morning, His parents and om are on some mission, a very important one.

Unfortunately, their grandparents went to some of his old colleagues' reunion.

Manik sat down in the bed with a weak huff - are you serious!? He is not answering my phone calls since the morning, how can I calm down? I need him back home soon or else I will never eat any medicine.

His younger brother's eyes widened in panic. He knows it's impossible to connect miran in the middle of the mission.

This one is very important. He is becoming mad at his twin to give hope to Manik as he will come today morning.

Why does he late to finish the mission?
