The bus stopped at the airport.
Throughout the whole journey, Ishan didn't utter a single word. The whole ride, he kept staring outside the bus.
Shubman would occasionally glance at the other whose face was all gloomy and expressionless.
The quietness of the other would always make Shubman confused, always forcing him to think of the possible reasons for the quietness.
"Bacho! Gumm maat jana!" Rohit bhaiya said in a loud voice, sarcasm was evident.
Virat kept laughing as he tried to suppress that with his sleeves.
At the airport, there was a huge crowd, cheering them on, crying for the slightest attention.
Shubman stayed back, waiting for Ishan to get off the bus. The other slowly looked up from his foot and made eye contact.
'Is he waiting for me...? Or Mayank...?' Ishan thought, surprised.
He slowed down as he reached Shubman. The taller glanced to his side and continued to walk.
As soon as the flash lights started to flash at them, Ishan unconsciously behind Shubman who was slightly startled. He didn't budge though and kept Ishan behind him.
"PRINCE GILL!"— "WE LOVE YOU TEAM INDIA!"— "HANDSOME SHUBHAM!"— "PRINCE SHUBI!!"
As they walked by and when Shubman passed by the crowded people, various comments were thrown at them.
Shubman was indeed famous, Ishan had no doubt in that.
Everyone in the team received various cheerful comments, expecting Ishan. He kept hiding behind Shubman's tall frame and walked by with others.
Shubman noticed that.

They started to board the plane after all the formalities were completed.
"Ishan!" it was Mayank.
Ishan turned around and saw Mayank jogging towards him.
"What's your seat no?" he asked.
Ishan looked at his ticket. "A—7"
"Oh! I'm A—6! We're gonna sit together!!" Mayank exclaimed in happiness.
Ishan softly smiled at him. As he turned around, he noticed Shubman's icy cold eyes at him. He blinked away as it was too intense.
'Is he alright...?' Ishan thought, biting his bottom lip.

.....It was roughly 9 hours of flight. As soon as the plane took off, Ishan decided to sleep.
Although he was sleeping, throughout the whole time, he could feel a pair of eyes on him.
Mayank, who was sitting beside him, continuously talked to him, although Ishan was sleeping, it didn't stop him. Ishan would occasionally nod to respond to Mayank's voice.
A few hours went by. It was now time to have some food. The cabin crew brought them various types and categories of options. Ishan was more than confirmed to what to choose and what not to.
