Dheere Se Kho Gaye!

[7]

Sri was in his room, standing in front of the cupboard deciding what to pack. A huge suitcase was resting on the bed. Sri had made the whole room a mess. Ishi came in with two cups of hot tea in her hand and almost screamed while looking at the sight.

"Don't you dare! Touch anything else. Here hold this... God, I can't even find a place to put cups. Pakad ke chup chap... Lo yahan Beth jao, theek hai? I'll pack myself." Ishi annoyingly smacked her forehead and started to clean the room.

She had put back all the clothes in the cupboard and then started to look out for some clothes. Sri was sitting there slurping on his tea. He didn't want to bother Ishi anymore as she was pissed already.

"No... I won't wear that thing." Sri pointed at a piece of cloth Ishi was holding.

Ishi looked at him and then at the outfit, "Dummy, it's mine. And it's just a scarf...which I'll be wearing as a top."

Sri stopped drinking and started to imagine his girlfriend in that outfit. Damn no. "You can't wear that." He picked up the scarf and put it back into the cupboard.

"And may I ask, why?"

"I don't want people to look at your--- hmmm if you know. It's all mine. I am jealous. God." He rolled his eyes and hid his face with his palm.

Ishi cracked up, "Sweetie, I'll be wearing your this blue denim jacket over it. You know that I don't like revealing my skin."

"Right. I know."

"But look at you. All. Jealous. What if I wear this without a jacket?"

"I mean you can wear whatever you want to main tumhari maa nahi but I'll be very jealous. I'll kill every guy who'll hit on you. Dekhna Dahmer ban jaunga Uttrakhand ka."

"Haan. Bas bas. Bohot hai itna hi. I don't want you to turn into Dahmer. Nahi pehnungi aise. Okay?"

"Yes, baby girl. Here have your chai. Pi lo ji. Jaanu ji." He began to tease her again.

As Ishi was packing, Sri went into his brother's room. Guru was packing as well, he stuffed his bag with stuff to eat rather than clothes.

Sri dramatically widened his eyes, "Abbey yeh kya kar Raha hai, bhai? Trip pe ja rahe hain picnic nahi. Gadha."

"Han toh kapde toh tere bhi pehen loonga. Food is more important for survival. Nanga ghum loonga."

"Bhai Teri shakal bhi aisi hai ke log tujhe kapde dann de denge pakka."

"Keh sakte hain." Guru shrugged.

Sri spoke again, "Agar Ishi Maa ne apka bag dekhliya toh apka 'the end' bro. Isliye kapde pack kar apne dhang se main kuch nahi doonga pehene ko kyunki already Ishi ke saath kapde share kar Raha hoon."

"Bro, apki priorities hi alag hain. Aur tu share nahi kar Raha wo tere zabardasti kapde pehen rahi hai." Guru taunted him.

Shrinkhal held his brother by his face and tried to forcefully kiss him, showing him how much he loves him and annoy him too. Sri would do anything to make Guru embarrassed. While Sri was trying all these tricks on him Ishi came into the room and saw them.

"Can you guys please do this outside the room? Hey Bhagwan yeh kya hai Guru?"

"Mera suitcase. Mere kapde. Mera bed--"

"Aur yeh hai mera haath. Jo ab padega tere dekhna." Ishi started to help Guru to put his stuff back.

Sri started to laugh and tease, looking at his scared brother. He would always get scared whenever Ishi scolded him. It wasn't like she was intimidating but because she was his elder brother's girlfriend so out of respect he'd silently do as she asked him to do but yes of course, he was always scared of Ishi whenever she got angry.

They all were done packing their stuff and now it was time to leave. Sri and Guru had put all the stuff in the car's trunk. They were leaving for Rajasthan. Shrinkhal was driving and Ishi was in the passenger seat because she would never let anyone play their playlist and would always put her playlist.

•••

They had just begun the journey. Shrinkhal was driving, Ishi was in the passenger's seat and Guru was in the back seat. Both Guru and Sri started to fight over whose playlist would be playing on the speakers. Ishi silently connected the aux with her phone and played her playlist.

It was a mix of old Bollywood songs. Sri and Guru gave her a look but they didn't say anything because they know Ishi wouldn't listen to them. They started to soon vibe with the songs and all three of them started to sing along.

"We'll be vlogging too. I'll shoot some clips. Please guys cooperate." Guru plead.

"Bring your Gandi Shakal in between too." Ishi pinched Shrinkhal's arm playfully.

Shrinkhal as usual started to roast him. Ishi took Guru's side and squeeze his face while saying he was cute. Ishi and Guru were friends for a long time and they were pretty comfortable with each other. But not to make things awkward between them, Guru and Ishi drew a line.

After a few hours' drive, they stopped to get some tea as they were still surrounded by mountains. Ishi got up from the car and stood by the end of the road and was admiring the view. Guru went in to order tea in a small shop. Sri saw Ishi standing there and clicked a few pictures of her and smiled to himself.

He walked toward and hugged her from the back, resting his chin on her right shoulder. Ishi leaned her head on him. "isn't it beautiful?" Ishi mumbled.

"Maybe for you but for me you are the most beautiful view to watch. Forever."

Ishi turned towards him and smiled, "Wah itni achi pick up line, Bhushan ji."

"Bilkul, Malik Sahab. Apke liye kuch bhi."

Meanwhile, Guru came and stood next to them.

"Uhm... Hello guys." While holding the camera on them.

"Hi," Ishi waved at the camera.

"Chotu...chai lao jao." Sri ordered him.

Guru hung his head down and walked back to the shop to grab cups. Ishi tipped her toes and kissed Sri's face. "I am in love with you, urgh I wish I could eat you."

"Of course, Chikoo I know you love me. I love you more than you can imagine....oh no no my love is deeper for you than these chasms lying under the mountains." Sri almost smirked while pulling Ishi into his embrace with one arm. Ishi smiled while feeling butterflies in her stomach.

All three of them sat on the edge of the rocks while sipping their hot tea. They can never live without drinking tea. Tea runs through veins. After drinking, they resumed their journey.

After more than 15 hours of driving, they finally reached Rajasthan. They wanted to finish the journey in one day no matter what. As they checked into their hotel rooms they just fell straight onto the bed and went to sleep.
