Yuvi woke up late in the morning. This is not a job of his punctual husband's favour as he believes in disciplined life. No need to mention that he's enough dissatisfied with Yuvi's drowsiness at 10 O'clock. He was watching Yuvi's reflection through mirror while brushing his hairs.

"Itna der kiun lagaye uthne me ?"

Yuvi answered resting his back on bed's frame, "raat ko neend nahi aa raha tha. Der se soya..." *Yawning*

"Kal barsat ke baad weather to bohot mast ho gyi thi... Phir kiun nahi aa rhi thi neend ?" Gauti threw his next question spreading perfume on his neck and wrist.

"Nap doesn't depend on weather everytime. By the way, why are you getting ready ? Kahan jaa rahe ho ?"

"Market" GG got up from tool. "Tum itna der lagaoge to mujhe hi jaana padega na ? Waise kal raat ko tum kahan gaye the ?"

Probably Yuvi wasn't ready for the question. For a few seconds he lost his words then acted to think rubbing his forehead. Gauti said again, "Don't say kahin nhi gaya tha. I saw dust under your slippers which I had cleaned just before evening"

"Gotu... are you a hubby or detective ? Haan gaya tha evening walk par, abhi yaad aaya." Yuvi nodded before getting up from bed. Then closed the last button on Gautam's shirt which was letting flaunt a glimpse of his chest.

"For you, a hubby ofcourse. And a detective too for my household"

"There's no criminal in your household, GG."

After a coupley stare Gauti asked with softer expression which is usually imperfect on him, "Yuvi, kya tum aajkal mujhse pareshan ho ?"

"Aisa sawal kiun Gauti ? Aaj kal kya, I had never any complaint against you"

"You had, I know. Maine Abhi ko sataya hai, bohot saari controversial comments kiya hai lekin ab to woh sab bhi chhod diya hai."

"Why are you saying like that ? I'm so happy with you from previous 22 years"

"Still you need to go to EVENING WALK!"

Simple question and softer GG behaviour, but Yuvi got silent. When he turned around his face instead of answering Gauti sighed. Said, "gimme some cash. Mere paas nhi hai, veggies ke shop me online payment nhi hota"

Before leaving Gauti informed Yuvi about covered breakfast in the kitchen. But Yuvi sat beside window after coming from washroom and still sitting, literally ignoring another upcoming scolding session by his typical husband when he will come back.

He was begging apology in his mind. From whom ? Gauti ? May be. The sea of thoughts wouldn't come to an end if his phone wouldn't ring. It was Abhi calling.

"Bol bachcha, kaisa hai tu ? Kolkata me jyada garmi to nahi ?"

Abhi's voice came from another side, "Garmi to bohot hai dada, but I'm alright. Aapki tabiyat kaisi hai ye batao ?"

"Hmm tabiyat to thik hai mere laal lekin teri yaadein bohot satata hai. Yahan to din bhar dada dada karke phirta tha... Ab pura ghar khali lagta hai"

"To aap gam bhul jao kiunki bohot jald hi apka ghar gigglings se bhar jayega or koi apko grandpa grandpa karta phirega"

Yuvi almost jumped from couch, "K-kya ? Really bachcha ? Kab ? Doctor se consult kiya na ? Ache doctor ke paas jaana beta, nahi to yahan aaja... Dada ke ghar me hi rehna, ya phir... Main jaun kya ? Arey Mayank bachcha hai, use sabkuchh nhi pata, he can't handle..."

After so long conversation Abhi became able to convince him that no need to worry, Mayank is no longer a bachcha, he's gonna having a bachcha so he became enough responsible. And finally Yuvi's advising session come to an end ---

"Remember bachcha, jyada weight mat uthana"

"Okay ab bas bhi karo dada... Everything is gonna be OK. I know betterly you're worried for your grandchild only. Mujhe pehle bohot lad pyaar se rakhte the par ab to bhul hi gaye hain. Main phone karu to hi baat karte hain"

"Nahi re pagle, teri kami mujhe har pal mehsoos hota hai. Or main apne har bachche se lad pyaar karta hun..."

He sighed after the last sentence. Looked at a picture on wall collaged with many other photos;

"Kal koi nahi aaya tha Mahi, tumhe koi galat fehmi hua hoga"

"Acha thik hai maan liya"

"Good. Now finish your breakfast for Gid sake"

Sonu fed Mahi by himself before going to market. Mahi acted normal in front of him but he knows someone came last night, to remind him a cursed day (night). The chain of old memories were again gathering in his mind when Sonu left. But soon he came back;

"Mahi... Mahi... Lo tumhare mood swings ki dawai... Tumhare dono avatar aa gaye!"

He entered the room holding Ishan and Rishabh's napes with both hands. At a glance clouds flew away from Mahi's face and a wide smile appeared in their place seeing his two ladlaas.

"Mere do avatar ?"

"Or nahi to kya ? Team India ke future wicket keepers. Raaste me mil gaye to le aaya. Baate karo inse, main jald hi aata hun"

As soon as the bright rays of house came back, Mahi forget everything like nothing happened yesternight. Both the brothers snuggled with him like they're meeting with dad after two years instead of two days.

"So ? Kaisa tha trip ? Or Ishu bachcha, why are you limping ? Chot lag gaya kya ?"

Rishabh grinned before Ishan could say anything, "Trip was AWE-some dada, that's why Ishu is limping iykyk"

"Chup kar! Woh dada... Mujhe thoda lag gaya tha rock ke sath" Ishan stammered making Rishabh laugh more.

"Han han tum sabko rock ke sath takkar lag gaya! You know dad, Yash's boyfriend Dev, your fanboy Dhruv are also limping, unko bhi rock ke sath lag gaya... Kitna hard rocks hai bhai... Hahahahaha"

Mahi smacked his head before asking, "to tu kiun baaki reh gaya ?"

"Woh mera banda bohot sanskaari hai na ... I mean, I wasn't riding on rock... Arey matlab I wasn't jumping on rock..."

Mahi hummed a little then asked holding Ishan's shoulder, "Ishu ek baat bata, is baar Shreyas ko tuition fees du ya dehej ?"

Ishan chuckled in his palms... "Dehej hi de do, Rishu se raha nhi jaata ab!"

Poor Rishu's face turned red. He said stroking hairs, "kya dada aap bhi!"
