Ishq~e~ulfat.

chapter -16

Deepti hugged Ryan immediately , the hug was as much as for herself as for him , she needed this without knowing it .

She looked up at him as his brown eyes came in her view , he was her baby brother , the person she could not even think about hurting .

" Di , I know it's not my place to ask you a personal question but are you upset because of Aditya Bhai ? " The question shocked deepti not because it was asked but because the way it was asked ...

" It's not like that rey . And about your place , it is above everyone else's..."

" You are my brother , my family . " She said while looking at him with that motherly affection and he again hugged her ...

" Then ...don't leave your family please ..." His pleading voice fell in her ears and it was unsettling something within her .

She always stayed away from them and after sometime she will be settling with her partner so she wanted to spend it with her family ...to feel what it is like to have a family ...

Time shifts to night  ....

Deepti's belongings were shifted to her room and all three of them had their room on the same floor ..

Kunal came back from his office with a handbag with him .

He passed it to one of the butlers and left for his room ...
His room was the first one , immediately in front of lifts door while Ryan's was at the back end .

He went inside and after changing came back .

His first destination was his baby brother's room .
The lights were turned off and he entered it to see that Ryan was out like a bulb . He was sleeping in the corner on his stomach while hugging his pillow to his chest .

The blanket was lying on the floor while he was shivering with rooms temperature.

Kunal picked up the blanket tucking him in it comfortably and after that increased the room temperature....

Just when he came back from his room  he saw that some dim light was coming from a room in the middle .

He went towards the room and entered it just to see deepti sleeping on couch with her books lying on the couch and her mobile in her hand with laptop on the table .

He sighed looking at her and carefully removed all the things but when it came to her phone her grip felt like that of a gorilla . She was not ready to leave her phone and after a lot of tries he was able to take it from her and finally tucked her up in couch only . For him lifting her without her permission was strange and he didn't feel it right to wake her up when she was finally able to sleep after a lot of days ...

He went to the kitchen downstairs ,his food was already heated up and served to him . He quickly finished his food and came back to his room . While he was trying to sleep his mind suddenly drifted to his and anu's conversation today . She was an odd charm . She was far from something what he likes  yet her witty remarks made her attractive to him .

He shooked his thoughts and tried to sleep . But his thought drifted to Ryan and the the thread of their relation .

It was getting hard for him to sleep and he was not that much workaholic to work without sleep .

He needs his sleep and with this motive only his steps took him to his brother's room.

He was a little hesitant because from the day they had that argument Ryan didn't sleep with him or even talk .
Keeping it all aside he entered the room with a pillow and blanket.

Kunal laid on his back and closed his eyes while putting his arms over his eyes . And turning off even the night light . He was still uneasy as he keeps tossing and turning....

After some 10 to 15 minutes his eyes become a little heavy and he was going in deep sleep just then Ryan 's feet touched him in a way that it frightened him . He woke up with a shock and looked irritated as hell .

He laid back as he couldn't say anything to him . after sometime he felt Ryan shifting to him and placing his head on his hand . And after this he snuggles in his pillow his back facing Kunal and finally Kunal also drifted back to his slumber .

It was Ryan who woke up first and searched for his mobile still in sleepy state and then his hands reached to kunal's  face to check what it is he pressed his hand squeezing his face which caused an irritated groan from Kunal and he smack Ryan back .

Ryan quickly got up a little frightened and turned lights on only to see his brother's irritated face

" What are you doing ?" Both of them asked together ...

" I should ask you that as it is my room ." Replied Ryan ....

" And .... it's my floor for your information...mr.little sinha "

Ryan's jaw dropped at his brother's words but the thing which irked him was calling him little...

" I'm not little...." Ryan said with utmost serious expressions on his face ...

" Oh really! " Kunal said smirking ....

And just then Ryan shouted on top of his lungs ...." Mummy !!!!!!"

Ramya was in kitchen preparing for breakfast when Ryan's shrill voice fell in her ears .

Kaushal who just came after morning walk also heard it ..." Yeh tumhari nkara aulaad phir shru ho gyi ..." He said being fed up with their drama .
Who would say that they are 20 and 28 ...

Ramya looked at him with her stinking eyes ..." Haa BSS meri h toh aulaad h apka toh koi contribution h nhi tha na mr. Sinha " she taunted putting her spatula down heading to Ryan's room .

Kaushal followed his wife to his younger son's room ...just when they reached their room they saw a sleepy deepti also coming towards their room while rubbing her eyes and this gives another reason for kaushal to scold his useless sons .

Ramya entered and saw that Ryan was standing on one end of the bed with his pillow and on other was Kunal while clutching his back ....

" Ab kya hua ? Subah subah ghr ku sir p utha lete ho tum dono ? " Ramya shouted at both of them while deepti slept putting her head on her baba's shoulder who was also looking at them with his stinking eyes ...

" Maa Bhai called me immature ..." Complained Ryan ...
" It's clear from your actions " said Kunal causing a smack on his head ...

" Kunal do you not have any work ? And if you don't then join me in kitchen and stop teasing him ." Ramya replied in a fed up tone and turned to look at Ryan who tried to hide with all his pillows " and you ...stop getting irritated at all little things ...just because he said it , it doesn't means it's true ...he is not       harishchand" she replied and Ryan only nodded glaring at his older brother who only smirked back ....

" Tum dono h bail buddhi  ho ... Ik k umr 55 ki or akl bachpan ki or ik k umr bachpan ki or akl pachpan ki ...." Kaushal said still supporting deepti ...

Ramya glared at kaushal and while leaving said ..." In next 30 minutes ..., I should see all of you in kitchen ...you included mr .sinha " she said with no argument tone ....

What happens next ?

Love yourself ❤️
