ROYAL HIGHNESS

11.Dil se shayari

Author's POV,

Advait was in deep sleep when his phone rang loudly. He cursed and blocked the sound with his pillow. He was irritated by the disturbance as he had only slept for an hour. His phone still continued to ring and he finally took his phone from the night stand frustrated. He received the call without even bothering to open his eyes let alone looking at the called ID.

"Arey yaarrr.... Mara nahi hu main! Lekin abhi soya nahi toh pakka mar jaunga. Baad mein call karo, bye!" (Hey buddyyy.... I'm not dead yet! But if I didn't sleep now, I'll definitely die. So, please call again later, bye!) He whined and was about hang up the call when an authoritative voice stopped him.

"Peeke aayata kya raat mein?" (Did you come home drunk yesterday night?) Amyardh's cold tone sounded from the other side of the call. As soon as Advait heard his brother's voice, his eyes opened quickly. He almost rolled down the bed, trying to sit up. He bit his tongue.

"Nahi nahi, bhai! Kyu?" (No no, brother! Why?) Advait quickly defended himself.

"Toh msg kisne bheja tha? Wo bhi raat ke 2 baje!" (Then who sent the msg?) That too 2 pm at night!) Amyardh asked and raised his brows.

"Woh toh maine hi bheje the!" (I did send those!)

"Pagalo jaisa kyu baat kar raha hai? Jaise barah saal ka baccha pyar mein hai. Tu toh har roj ek ladki ke saath rahata hai. Aise msg karne ka kya samjhu main?" (Why are you talking like a crazy? Like a 12 year old child fell in love. What should I think of these?)

"Haa raje. Pagal ho gaya hu! Mujhe lagta hai pyar me pad gaya ho main (Yes. Your highness. I have became crazy! I think I'm in love.") Advait replied in a sing-song tone.

"You're kidding me, right?" Amyardh was surprised to hear these words from Advait. He didn't think that his playboy brother could ever fall in love. Advait then explained everything that happened the previous day to his brother.

"Jis ke saath rumor hua tha, ussi ladki ke liye dil de diya tune? Waise tu serious hai na?" (Did you just fall for the same girl from whom, your scandal rumor started? By the way, you are serious this time, right?) Amyardh asked Advait Incredulosly.

"Haa. Of course. Kab ayega milne usse? Agar Tu kahega, tabhi baat badaunga." (Yeah. Of course. When are you coming to meet her? If you give a green signal, then only I will take this matter forward.)

"Aana tho padega jab tu bula raha hai!" (I will have to come when you are calling me!) Amyardh said and hung up.

Amyardh was sitting in his bedroom and was reading the new chapter update that his favorite author published. The chapter contained beautiful shayaris that was familiar to him and reminded him of someone very dear to him. It read,

"Use Eyeliner pasand tha,..." (She liked the eyeliner,...)

"Aur Mujhe Kajal!" (And I liked Kajal!)Amyardh said on instinct like he knew that byheart. As he read, a memory came to his mind.

"Main laga du?" (Shall I do it?) Amyardh asked.

"Tujhe aata hai? Kuch bhi kehta hai!" (Do you know how to? Says anything!) The girl teased him and giggled.

"Ye tere liye ." (This is for you.) He said and gave her the kajal.

"Kajal kyu?" (Why kajal?) She raised her brows and asked curiosly.

"Eyeliner se zyada kajal suit karta hai tujhe." (Kajal suits you very well than Eyeliner.) He replied shrugging.

"Purane zamaane ka raja!" (King of Old Era!) She shook her head smiling at him.
