Anish came home only to see Revati all ready with Advait, waiting for him and Mihir to come. Revati saw Anish and smiled but frowned not seeing Mihir. She searched a little but Mihir didn't come.

Revati: Anish, Monu kaha hai?

Anish (shocked): What? Par vo to mujhse pehle hi college se chala gaya tha.

Advait: Kya? Aise kaise? Aur abtak kyu nahi aaya?

Revati: Maybe friend ke yaha gaya ho.

Anish: Let it be. Bhabhi, Bhaiyya, aap kahi ja rahe ho? Like kahi Jana hai kya aapko?

Revati: Ha. Bhul gaya kya ki Abhijeet aur Rama ke shaadi ke kapde lene hai. Unki shopping karne ko jana hai. Isliye tumhara aur Monu kahi wait kar rahe the. Ye lo Ghar ki chabi. Ek hai humare pass. Just in case tum dono bahar gaye to. Aur Anish, Monu ko aur hurt mat karna. Vo already bohot hurt hua hai.

Anish: Ha Bhabhi, I'll see to it. Aap jao ab. Revati Bhabhi wait kar rahi hogi.

Advait: Anish, I'm warning you. Agar tumne Ansh ko phirse hurt kiya na to mujhse bura koi nahi hoga. You got it? Aur apna aur Ansh ka khayal rakhna. Chalta hu. Bye.

Anish: Bye Bhaiyya and Bhabhi.

Revati: Bye.

Revati and Advait left the house. Anish went in his room and changed. He glanced the watch to show the time 2:45 pm. Mihir was not yet home. Anish's anger was rising with the passing time. Atlast at 3 pm, the door bell rang. Anish went and open the door only to find a sweaty Mihir breathing slight heavily. Mihir saw Anish but got in and sat on the sofa. He was gulping in thirst. He took out his water bottle but it was empty. He was so tired to walk towards the kitchen to take water. He sighed tiredly but startled when a glass of water came infront of him. He look and saw Anish holding it. Mihir took it and gulped the water in one go, cleanching his thirst. He wiped his sweat and was about to go in his room to change when Anish caught hold of his arm. Mihir turned back tiredly. He was so tired that he wanted to go in his room and drop himself on the bed after changing and take a good amount of sleep. And why would he not be tired? He came home all by walking. Literally he walked 10km from the college that too in hot sun. His eyes heaved with sleep and he was so angry on Anish to come without taking him.

Anish: Why you came home so late?

Anish asked sternly at which Mihir frowned. Did Anish got hit somewhere or what? He was the one who came home without even bothering about him and now asking why he was late? Mihir was not getting anything. He just stared at Anish.

Anish: I asked you something. Answer me. Tum to mujhse pehle college se nikle the to how come you reached this late?

Mihir's eyes widened in shock.

Mihir: What? What are you saying? Mai Mai college se jaldi nikla? N-

Anish: See you committed it yourself. And don't you think you deserve a punishment for what you did in college?

Mihir: N-no no. What I did?

Anish: Wow! Tumhe kya laga ki tum kaise bhi behave Karo aur mujhe pata nahi chalega? Then you are wrong, Mihir. Mujhe sab pata chala hai. And I can't believe you could do something like that! Mihir, in 5 minutes I want you here. Go and get fresh but don't you dare to be late.

Anish left from there leaving Mihir in shock. Mihir eyes were teary, not able to figure out what Anish is saying. Nevertheless, he went into his room and got fresh. Mihir's heart was scared thinking about what was coming up. He went down to find Anish already there. Anish called him near him sternly. Mihir too went near him in fear.

Anish: Show me your right palm.

Mihir: What?

Anish: Are you deaf or what? Sunai nahi deta? I said show me your right palm.

Mihir showed him in fear but he flinched and screamed in pain when a steel ruler landed harshly on his hand. Mihir took his hand back and started rubbing it with teary eyes.

Anish (angrily): Mihir, haath aage kar. Tumhe tumhare kiye ki sajah milni chahiye.

Mihir (cracked voice): Maine kuch nahi kiya hai.

Anish: Don't act innocent. Haath aage kar.

Mihir: No...

Anish forcefully pulled Mihir's hand and gripped it. He again hit him with the steel ruler. Mihir let out a yelp, tears flowing down his eyes. Already his hand was hurting due to the ruler's blow but more due to Anish's deadly grip.

Mihir: Please...aaa...leave it. Maine kuch nahi kiya. Trust me... aaaahhhhhh... I swear.... Maine kuch nahi kiya.... Please......

But Anish didn't paid a heed to his pleads. Mihir was sobbing hard as his hand turned red due to hits. After around 20 hits, Anish stopped hitting him and jerked his hand. Mihir held his hand and sobbed hard. He started retreating towards his room but was again stopped by Anish.

Anish: Do you think you're punishment is over? Then you are wrong as it's not yet finished. Come with me.

Saying this he started dragging a sobbing Mihir out of the home. He locked the door and took him to the nearby park.

Anish: Now, 10 rounds of this park. That too non stop. Agar ek bhi baar ruke to rounds extra honge. Jitni baar rukoge utne extra rounds. Start.

Mihir (sobbing): Why are you doing this to me? Maine kya Kiya hai bhaiyya ki aap mujhe itni sajah de rahe ho? What have I done?

Anish: Tum acchi tarah se jante ho. I tolerated it till you were just speaking par aaj to tumne saari hade paar kardi. Sharm aati hai tumhe apna Bhai kehne me. Tumhe punish kiye bager tum sudharne nahi wale the. So just start your punishment.

Mihir: Bhaiyya, par-

Anish (shouted): Just freaking start running or I'll increase the rounds.

Mihir started running not to enrage him. Without even being at fault, he was punished. After around 5 continuous rounds, Mihir stopped to catch his breath. He was feeling so weak and why would he not when he had not eaten his tiffin properly. Anish saw him stop and increased one more round. Mihir started running again but slipped and fell as the ground was wet due to the rain which took place at night. Anish saw it and ran towards Mihir. Mihir tried to sit and Anish helped him. He checked for injuries and saw that his hand was bleeding a bit and he had scratches. Anish felt guilty. Anish tried speaking but Mihir cut him off by saying the words which broke Anish's heart.

Anish: Mihir, I'm so-

Mihir (teary eyes, getting up): I hate you!

Mihir went from there running towards their home. He saw the door open and ran inside, directly going in his room. Anish too came behind him. Advait, Revati and Abhijeet who were back then, glanced worriedly towards Anish, asking him an explanation for Mihir's behaviour.

To be continued...
That's it!

Will Mihir forgive Anish?
What will happen now?
Will the brothers be united or will they be drifted more?
