Chapter 24

At Sehegals
Sehegal Brothers and Naira went to Veer's favourite restaurant to have dinner, after watching Article 370. Till the time they were in the midway, it was half past 11 and Veer was already asleep on Mahir's shoulder on back seat. Mahir too had dozed off by keeping his head on Veer's head. Naira and Kartik were talking in low voice, not wanting to disturb their younger brothers sleep.

Naira: Kartik, ab jabki sab theek hogaya hai to shaadi ki baat pakki kare?

Kartik (teasingly): Aapko badi jaldi hai Miss. Naira Naitik Singhaniya se Mrs. Naira Kartik Sehegal hone ki? Aap chaho to kal hi uncle se baat karu?

Kartik looked at Naira who was blushing looking down. Kartik too blushed looking at Naira.

Mahir (with closed eyes): Bhaiyya, road samne hai. Gaadi waha dekhke chalaiye naki bhabhi ko dekhke. Vo kya hai, mai nahi chahti ki itni jaldi hume swarg prapti ho.

Kartik's eyes widened on Mahir's statement. He quickly focused his gaze on the road. He glanced Naira who was blushing hard and then looked at Mahir through rear mirror. Mahir was in the same position with closed eyes.

Mahir (closed eyes): Bhaiyya, I know I'm handsome iska matlab ye nahi ki aap mujhe hi ghurte rehe. Bhabhi kya sochengi? So stop staring me and focus on driving. Don't worry ab mai so raha hu so you both can continue your love bird talks. Bye Good Night Bhaiyya Bhabhi.

Kaira blushed on Mahir's last statement. They both shared a cute eye lock before Kartik again focusing on driving. There was a peaceful silence in between them. After sometime, Kartik's phone ranged. Hearing the voice, both Veer and Mahir stirred in sleep.

Kartik: Naira, ringtone off karo aur dekho kiska phone hai.

Naira nodded and offed the ringtone. Kartik glanced at Veer and Mahir from rear mirror to see Veer snuggled in Mahir by hugging him. Naira checked the caller name.

Naira: Kartik, Sumedh Sharma ka phone hai.

Kartik (confused): Sumedh ka? Vo bhi itni raat ko? Kahi kuch problem to nahi hui hogi? Kya hua hoga? Sab theek to hoga na? Raghav ya uncle to thee...

Naira (cutt him off): Mendhak, pehle phone to uthao. Varna kaise pata chalega ki kya hua hai? Mai uthati hu aur speaker pe rakhti hu.

Naira picked the call and put it on speaker.

Sometime ago in Nigam Mansion
It was night time and till now Sid and Sujay had composed themselves from the shocking revealation. They were thinking about how to tell this to Kartik and Mahir. They were in Sid's room, pacing here and there and colliding to each other. Finally they both sat down on bed.

Sid: Dada, hume ye Kartik Bhai aur Mahir ko batana hoga. Vahi humari help kar sakte hai. Vahi chote ko ye sab samjha sakte hai.

Sujay: But Sid, mujhe nahi lagta ki vo humari baat manenge. No doubt they are our best friends and trusts us par ye baat unke chote bhai se related hai. Isme unko unke chote bhai ko sacrifice karna hai, khudse dur bhejna hai. I don't think vo ye karenge.

Sid (angrily): Kyu nahi karenge? They need to do this. Afterall chote humara saga bhai hai. He is blood related to us and not to them. They have to give him to us.

Sujay (making him understand): Ashu, par humare paas iske koyi proofs nahi hai stating ki Veer Sehegal hi humara Abhishek hai. We just have the report given by Bantu. Humare paas aur kuch nahi hai. We can't just go to them bare handed and say that Veer is our brother. We can't. Atleast tab tak nahi jabtak humare paas koyi proof na ho jo ki state kare ki Veer Sehegal is the blood of Amal Nigam. We need proof baccha. We need the reports of DNA Test of Veer and Papa. Jabtak DNA Test nahi karvate, hum unhe ye nahi bata sakte.
