Centuries and best-friends

A/N : I'm sick and here am I writing another chapter cause I'm aadat se majboor lmao. Happy Abhay Day!! Also, y'all can play Kabira encore or some comfort friendship song you like! Because this one's mainly about friendhip,nostalgia, and memories and YJHD songs inevitably remind me of friendships, memories and nostalgia.

" And the ball hits the boundary, it's a four, and a century, the first ever century in T20is for Abhishek Sharma!" The commentator's voice echoed.

The crowd broke into cheers, the players stood up, happy, delighted, proud.

But someone appeared the proudest.

As Abhay took off his head gear and held his bat, he smiled seeing Shubman clap and cheer, the widest of grins etched on his face, his dimples definitely making an appearance.

And he wondered if his cheeks hurted.

But they didn't.

Shubman was over the moon.

There couldn't be a happier moment for him, with him being captain for the Zimbabwe series, and with his best-friend scoring his first international century, there couldn't be anything more better than this.

His wicket was taken a few balls later, but as he walked back into the dugouts, the standing ovation that he received yet again made him overwhelmed.

Shubman walked over to him, patting his back, ruffling his hair as he put his arms around him.

" You played awesome! I'm so so happy for you and so very proud of you Abhay!" His voice tinged with pride and delight.

Abhay teared up, putting his arms around him as well.

" How did we grow up so fast? Wasn't it was just yesterday when you were stubbornly insisting on using my bat for the match because it's your good luck charm?" He continued, his voice beginning to grow heavy and Abhishek chuckled.

" Kitne jaldi jaldi bade ho gaye hum." He murmured and Shubman hummed in agreement.

" C'mon go in and rest, you need it."

Abhay nodded, still teary eyed as he walked in.

He ended up calling was his parents first.

" Did you see that?"

" We did! We all did! Amayra's been screaming at the top of her voice for the past fifteen minutes that her Mamu is the best!"

Abhay chuckled as he heard Amarya's ' MAMU IS THE BEST' scream echo in the room.

" We're so proud of you Abhay! We're so so proud of you! You played so well! There couldn't be anything more better than this for us!"

Tears rolled down his cheeks as he nodded his head.

" Crying already aren't you? Even though it's not a facetime, I know you're crying! Rotlu!" Komal teased him.

" Shut up!" He said earning a laugh.

" But it's okay. I love this rotlu brother of mine. And I'm very proud of him. I'm proud enough to declare it to anyone and everyone in the world that he's MY brother!"
