Baatein Ankahee

Chapter 33

Aarav found himself in a predicament as he witnessed the boys completely soaking themselves in water at the beach. Despite his attempts to persuade them to come back, they remained stubborn and unwilling to heed his authority. It was only when Aarav sternly gave them a cold, commanding stare that they reluctantly began to comply and return to safety.

The situation was not different with Abhi,Ishu and other members of the group, including Rishi and Yuvraj, got caught up in the spirited childlike fun with the boys and the girls. In an effort to prevent any potential sickness or danger from prolonged exposure to water, Abhay was compelled to raise his voice and sternly demand that they all come back to shore. The group initially grumbled and resisted, but Abhay's firm and assertive demeanor left them with no choice but to comply, thus prompting everyone to emerge from the water without further protests.

Abhi-"Kya hai yaar buddy kitna maza aa rha tha.. thodhi der toh aur khelne dete"

Omkara-"Shi keh rha hai woh kitna maza aa rha tha yaar.... thodhi der aur khelne do na bhai".(looking at Aarav)

Ruhaan-"Bhai Pls.. prettty pls"

Abhi glared at Ruhaan....that not so innocent look...he hated that..

Abeer-"Abe ...kya bigad jaayega tere Thodhi der aur khelne do na..kitne time baad aise enjoy kr rhe hai sb"

Yuvraj-"Chalo Abeer chalte hai ...let them shout... khudh toh enjoy nhi kr rhe hum logo ko bhi rok rahe hai"

Abeer-"Haan chal"

Abhay/Aarav together-"No"

Aarav-"Ek kadam bhi aage badhya na taange todh dunga teri"

Abeer-"haww...dar gya mein..."

Rishi interrupted-"It's already late ye dono shi keh rhe hai hamein chalna chaiye ab"

As the group stood together, Yuvraj's irritation with Rishi's agreeableness sparked an idea in his mind. Without hesitation, he turned to Abhi, who was standing next to him, and quietly shared his plan. Abhi, who was known for his mischievous nature, caught on to Yuvraj's scheme and a mischievous smile spread across his face.

The sudden change in Yuvraj's demeanor caught Ishu off guard, and he couldn't help but be intrigued by what the two of them were plotting. As they exchanged knowing glances, a sense of excitement filled the air. It was clear that Yuvraj and Abhi were up to something, and Ishu was eager to know what is it.

Abhi pouted and looked at Abhay cutely-"Buddy...aisa karoge aap apne baache ke saath...mein aapka cute sa chota sa pyaara sa Abhi hu na..... pls jaane do na...... sirf...sirf 15 minutes more phir pakka hum khudh wapas aa jaayenge"

Yuvraj
Controlled his laughter seeing how perfectly Abhi was acting ....he looked at ishu and nudged him with his elbow-"Tu kya statue ki tarah khada hai bol na tu bhi"

Ishu rolled his eyes-"I'm not interested...mera waise bhi mn nhi tha aane ka...let him do whatever he's doing....woh toh meri wajah se sbka plan cancel na ho bs isiliye aa gya..."

He was pretending but in reality he literally was enjoying the scene in front of him....he felt much better...the waves soothed his dilemma that was going on in my mind...about Abhay...his dada...his relationship with him....he felt as if it was like his dada knew about his inner conflict and struggles and that's why he asked to visit beach...as they all find peace in beaches ,shores ,waves ...he was trying to win over his insecurities....he wanted to test the still water....
to protect him from enemies...his dada distanced himself from him...now for his happiness will he come back to him ...that was a question...

Abhay's eyes softened as he gazed at Ishu, Abhi, and Ruhaan. The warmth of their presence enveloped him, grounding him in a sense of deep love and connection. Seeing the spark of joy of enjoying on the beach in their eyes, he felt an overwhelming surge of emotion. How could he ever defy them, the ones who meant the world to him?
