In SA for ODI and Test series
After the match where they defeated SA, Rohit Sharma now strolled into the team's training facility, his easygoing demeanor and laid-back charm evident in every step. As he entered the room, he noticed a new face—the shy and reserved Ritika Sajdeh, their recently appointed manager.
Virat Kohli, Rohit's ever-energetic best friend, gave a friendly nudge. "Rohit, meet Ritika. She's our new manager," he introduced with a grin.
Rohit flashed a casual smile, "Hey, Ritika. Looking forward to working together."
Ritika, however, seemed more focused on her notes than the greeting. "Likewise," she replied, maintaining a professional front.
This made Ro frown as he was used to people being at ease with him so he asked "Is there any problem?" politely.
Ritsy already a bit frustrated bcoz of the unwanted socialisation replied irritatedly "Yes Mr. Sharma, please if you are done with the unwanted questions I would like to get back to my work which I am sure you don't have any at the moment."
This changed Ro's demeanor and Vi noticed it and interjected him before the matters could turn more sour "Ro my boo bear chal na aaj kahi bahaar jaate hai humaari jeet celebrate karte hai!" he said as enthusiastically he could and glanced and Ritika who shook her head and went away.
Ro scrunched up his nose and said "Eww first of all stop calling me such names you idiot and I understood what you did there."
"Hein? What did I do? Benstokes kuch bhi bolta rehta hai tu." said Vi trying to deny.
Just then Harry came in running with a fuming rishu following behind "Harry ruk tu mai chodunga nahi tujhe, ye kya waahiyat mazaak hai!!!!" Rishu yelled angrily to which Harry came and hid behind Ro "Cap Ro dekho na ise maarne daud raha hai mujhe."
"Rishu ruk ek minute" said Vi and stopped Rishabh "Harry saamne aa aur bata tune kya kiya?" asked Ro attempting a stern tone "Kya cap Ro what do you think ki mai hi humesha galat hota hu?" To which both Vi and Ro said yes in unison and broke out in pearls of laughter and soon rishu joined too but then catching his breath said "Bhaiyas dekho na is ne mere new edition shoes ko marker se kharaab kar diya!"
"Abe o gadhe sun to le meri, ye tere original joote nahi hai ye to duplicate hai asli waale jaddu bhai ke room mai safe hai" harry said mocking him and then laughing out loud.
Soon Rohirat joined too and said "Harry when will you stop this stupidity? Aur is jaddu ko pata nahi kab akal aayegi har prank me tera saath deta hai samjhaane ke bajaay." said Ro shaking his head. "Chalo ab koi na rishu jaa aur tere shoes lele jaddu ke yaha se." said Vi and Ro added saying "Kal ke practice mai 10 laps extra for you harry." Harry whined but accepted seeing the strict face of his captain and rishu all while had a big goofy grin on his face.
They both left and Ro said smiling fondly "This kiddos are the life of our team, such chota kids they are, I'll always protect them with all my might." Vi also smiled seeing the look on Ro's face of such pure brotherly love not knowing the chaos that's going to unfold ahead.
In Rohirat's room
"Vi jaldi ready ho jaa yaar sab ready ho gaye hai kitna time lagayega." Ro yelled at his best friend who was casually styling his hair.
"Ha yaar itni kya jaldi hai aa raha hu, tune mahi bhai (he's the coach) ko bataya na ki hum jaa rahe hai?"
"Ha maine bata diya unko bola tha aane ke liye but aaj hi sakshi bhabhi aur ziva aaye hai na so it's better to spend time time with them." he paused and added "Yaar kaash humaare paas bhi hota aisa koi with whom we would look forward to spend time with, hamaare hakk ka koi."
Vi trying to lighten the mood said "Ha ha ab aayi hai na nayi wo uske saath time spend karne ka irada hai?" Wagging his eyebrows and mocking him.
The smile from his face dropped immediately as he yelled "Tu pagal wagal hai kya? Uske muh kaun lagega, there I was trying to be polite but madam ka ego itna bada hai ki sidhe se bat bhi nahi kar sakti to mai kya hi karu. Us se 4 feet dur rehna hi mere liye better hoga."
"Tu overreact kar raha hai yaar Ro, give her time nayi hai abhi. Waise bhi she's a punjabi, hum punjabiyo ka dil bohot bada hota hai and you already love a punjabi." Vi said indicating to himself and winking at him.
"Ha wo to hai I obviously love a punjabi" he paused as Vi was coming to hug him and said "That's Yuvi pa." and stuck his tongue at him which caused Vi chasing Ro to beat him up, that's when mahi bhai came in.
"Ayy ayy ek minute ruk jao dono, you both yourself have become big brothers now phir bhi bacho jaise behave karte ho." said mahi laughing at them, "Batao ab kyu ladd rahe the?"
"Bhai dekho na Ro bol raha hai that he only loves one punjabi i.e. yuvi pa, not me." Vi said sulking. "Par maine kab kaha I don't love you baby I obviously do love you my sugarcake." Ro said making weird faces to mock him.
"Tu ye ajib se naamo se mat bulaya kar mujhe." He said in disgust. Mahi cut them before they could start another fight "Kiddos leave all of this, tell me did you meet the new manager who will be managing you guys, Ritika Sajdeh?" to which Vi nodded.
"Bhai koi better nahi mila kya, us nakchadi ko kaise jhelunga mai?" Ro said with a pout. "Ro aisa nahi bolte, she's a bit reserved to usko time lagega na mix up hone mai." mahi chided him.
"Mai bhi yahi bol raha tha isko." added Vi "Par bhai uske liye rude hone ki kya zarurat thi use kya mai itna repulsive hu?" Ro asked with a dejected expression.
"Abeyy o mere panda tu koi repulsive nahi hai lakho ladkiya aise hi nahi marti tujh par." Vi said teasing him and trying to lighten Ro up.
Sensing his discomfort, Mahi approached Rohit. "New beginnings are often awkward, but give it time. You'll find your rhythm," he advised, patting Rohit on the back and ro hugged him.
"Chalo ab tumhe bahar bhi jana hai na? Mujhe Ziva ke saath painting karni hai." Mahi said with a fond smile, his love for his daughter evident.
"Hum bhi ruk jaate hai bhai she might be missing her favorite chachus." Ro said and Vi agreed. "Nahi tum log jaao and enjoy kal spend kar lena apni pyari niece ke saath time." saying this mahi went back to his room and Rohirat went to a club with the team
