Ayan was sitting on the bed while Ahad was sleeping on his bed.
"Ye itni jaldi kyu sogaya?" Anas asked, sitting beside Ahad, who was sleeping with a cute pout.
"Ro raha tha bohat." Ayan replied, feeling guilty for slapping him.
"Tune kyu maara usse? Sharam nahi aayi tujhe?" Anas asked angrily. Ahad's cries had squeezed his heart.
"Agar nahi maarta tou wo phit se Marne ki baat karta." Ayaan replied, caressing Ahad's hair.
"Basit me btaya ke school mein kya horha hai?" Anas asked, worried for his little one.
"He's getting bullied or kya." Ayan said oh so casually, but he was seething in anger from inside.
"Are you sure?" Anas asked distrustfully.
"Hmm, I will talk to bhaijaan tonight." Ayan said worriedly.
"Bhaijaan gussa hojaeinge yaar." Anas said, being tensed.
"But we can't hide this matter, it's very serious." Ayaan said with a tinge of finality in his voice.
"Lekin bhaijaaan jo iske sath kareinge uska kya?" Anas asked, he may not show it but he respected Ayaan alot. He can't cross him on this.
"Ussi se Ahad ko sabaq hasil hoga, bhool gaya hai ye ke he's a Khanzaada and Kanzaadas bow to no one except Allah." Ayaan said, completely pissed off by Ahad. Anas gulped, thinking about the situation has put himself in.
"Chor de yaar, bacha hai." Anas tried once again. He knows of Ali and Arnav get to know then it won't be good for Ahad.
"Bacha hai tabhi maine mun laal nahi kiya iska." Ayan said furiously, making Anas flinch.
"Acha chor, biking chalega?" Anas asked to make his mood better.
"Abhi Ahad mujhe chorega nahi, tu jaa, maybe next time." At an replied, caressing Ahad's hair.
"Acha? Chal sahi hai, main Ani ke sure jarha hun phir." Anas said and got up to go.
"Hmm, bhaijaan ko bta kar jaana." Ayaan said when Anas was on the door.
"Yaar bus hogaya na, I am sorry, han baba pata hai, okay, I won't do it again, package promise, okay bye." This is what Anas heard when he went to Aniket's room. His eyes lit up with mischief as he snatched Aniket's phone from his hand.
"Divya bhabhi isko tou main dekh lunga, aap easy hojaye." Anas said smiling cheekily as he heard some clarifications from the other end.
"Han han, I know you're JUST friends, okay bye." Anas said and without waiting for the answer, he cut the call and looked at Aniket who was glaring at him. He smiled cheekily.
"Pichle janam mein Tera Naam embarrassment tha kya?" Aniket asked, glaring at Anas who shrugged.
"Wo sab chor pehle ye bta, divu kyu gussa thi?" Anas asked, his eyes focused on Aniket.
"Wohi wali baat ko leke." Aniket replied, making his bed.
"Tu bhi na." Anas said and shook his head.
"Acha chor, biking chalega?" Anas asked and Aniket jumped on Anas in joy, Anas being stronger, carried him to the garage completely forgetting about informing their elder brothers.
•~•
All the brothers except Ahad were sitting in the living room except Ahad, Anas and Aniket.
"Ani or Anas kahan hain?" Arnav asked sipping his coffee.
"Bata kar nahi gaye aap logon ko?" Ayan asked being confused.
"Nahi tou, kahan gaye hain wo dono?" Ali asked as he hasn't seen them.
"Lag gaye." Ayaan murmured, cursing his luck.
"Kya barbara rahe ho, btaou bhi, ajeeb suspense create kiya hua hai." Arham asked, loosing his patience.
"B..biking par gaye hain." Ayan stuttered, looking away.
"Or humein btana zaroori nahi smjha unhone na tumne?" Ali asked angrily as they always do this.
"Maine bola tha Anas ko ke aapko bta kar jaye." Ayaan said in his defense.
"ehsaan (favour) kardiya aapne bohat bara." Ali said sarcastically making Ayaan sulk.
"Maine tou bola tha naa ab usne nahi maana tou meri kya galti?" Ayaan sulked, pouting like a 5 year old.
"Tu Ayaan ke peeche kyu par gaya?" Arnav asked side hugging Ayaan who snuggled into him.
"Main wapis aagaya." Anas yelled but stopped and made a nervous face when he saw all his brothers looking uhh glaring at him.
"Ye ehsan main zindagi bhar nahi bhoolunga, bohat bohat shukriya aapka." Ali said sarcastically.
"Kahan the tum log?" Arham asked sternly making Adarsh roll his eyes. This man is behaving all strict and stern like he never did any mischief. Only God knows how many times he had lied for this particular man.
"Wo wo main." Anas stuttered badly.
"Anas ye le Teri bike ki chaab-" Aniket started but stopped when Anas elbowed him.
"Batane ki zehmat bhi nahi ki tum dono gadhon ne?" Adarsh asked before anyone could as he's not gonna scold them.
"Wo bhaiyu." Aniket started but was cut off by Arham
"KYA BHAIYU? HUMESHA KA HAI YE TUM LOGON KA, THORI SI SHARAM KARLO, AB TOU KARLO, AB TUM DONO KE CHOTE BHAI BHI BARE HOGAYE HAIN PHIR SHARAM O LEHAZ NAHI DONON KUTTON KE ANDAR." Arham yelled furiously, but cursed involuntary. Ali's eyes darkened as he whacked Arham.
"Yaar bhaijaan." Arham whined like a 2 year old.
"Shut up Arham, or tum donon, jakar fresh hokar aao." Arnav scolded and ordered the two culprits.
"Aap inhein jaane de rahe hain?" Arham asked, being shocked.
"Ek time ka chalta hai, right now we have to deal with Ahad's matter." Arnav stated.
"So konsi punishment?" Akash asked, scared for his friend.
"Abhi tou sirf usey samjhane ki zaroorat hai taake wo aisa phir na kare." Ali said.
"Whatever, I won't talk to him." Ayaan said or more like told himself.
"We all know that you can't stay away from him even for a day." Adarsh taunted making Ayaan roll his eyes.
"Okay fine." Ayaan said.
"Bhaijaaaaaann." Aman shouted.
"Kya hua maani?" Ali asked softly.
"Mujhe bahir ka khana hai na please." Aman asked, displaying his puppy eyes.
"Jee nahi, Kal hi bahir ka khaya hai, chup chap ghar mein jo paka hai wo khao." Arnav replied instead of Ali.
"Fineee." Anas said and went Upstairs.
"Bhai main upar se aaya, Ahad ko utha kar." Ayan said.
As he entered Ahad's room, he looked at him sleeping like a baby.
"Ahad uth jaou." Ayaan said from a distance. Seeing him not responding, he went closer only to see Ahad whimpering.
He brought his hand on Ahad's forehead but took it back immediately as he was burning in fever. He sighed as he knew this will happen.
He quickly went down stairs and brought a bowl of cold water.
"Bhaijaan, Ahad ko aakar dekhein uses bohat bukhar horha hai." Ayaan said and ran upstairs.
