Unconditional Love

5. Unraveled

Virat sighed resting his head on the chair. He noticed how Rohit's face got sad the way he said about the dinner thing. He knew he was being harsh but he could not help it.

Rohit saw Aman waiting outside, Aman noticed him a bit upset-- he knew the reason of it. He just told Rohit to follow him.

"Where are we going?", asked Rohit as Aman told him to follow and now they were walking on street.

Aman didn't answer and then stopped at corner roadside vendor, "Bhaiya 2 plate special chole bhature", he ordered and then gestured Rohit to take a seat on the table.

"Don't think about Virat Sir's words, he is just stressed due to the project", Aman said as Rohit looked upset.

"Does he survive on coffee only? I have hardly seen him eat his meals", asked Rohit instead.

Aman knew this was coming, "He has it but the timings are odd but ya he skips meals a lot", he answered.

Rohit was just thinking how it is possible to work so hard and not take care of his own health. Aman could not help but smile at his care for Virat. He had personal experience once you get into Virat's space it is really hard to come out of it.

He was that kind of person whose personality intrigues you, makes you always wonder about how he does things and now he could see Rohit wondering about the same.

"This is awesome", Rohit said licking his fingers as it tasted amazing.

"I am glad you liked it", Aman said seeing his happy face.

They both went back to the office, Rohit was going to enter in the cabin along with Aman when he stopped as the colleagues called him, the same people who yelled at him in the afternoon.

"We are really sorry Rohit", they said, Rohit was surprised, he just said it's okay and went back to Virat's cabin knocking the door. Aman knew it was done by Virat.

"Why are you both here? Go home", Virat said seeing them both in the cabin.

Rohit looked at Aman who just made himself comfortable taking a book from bookshelf and sat on the sofa which made Virat glare at him and Aman ignored that.

"Rohit, you are here from more than 24 hours-- go home now", he said sternly which made Rohit leave the cabin and go home wishing them both Good Night to which Aman replied and Virat just gave a nod.

As Rohit left the cabin Virat threw a paperweight on Aman who just laughed reading his book.

"Why do u even try when you know I am not leaving without you?", Aman said and Virat just shook his head, he buried his attention again in the file.

Rohit left the cabin with heavy heart, he wanted to help Virat so that they can complete it quickly and Virat could go home too. But that tone of Virat, he could not help but feel upset about it.

"Why every word, every thing Virat did, affected him so much?", Rohit thought walking on the footpath. He was in no mood to go by cab.

It's been 6 months he had joined the company and this was the first such close interactions with Virat. He liked it so much just being in Virat's space, his presence.

He didn't know what was going on, he just sat at a tea stall having his tea. There was no use going home to the loneliness, no one was there waiting for him anyway.

Which is why he liked being in office, there were things which made him feel belonged there.

"Let's go home Virat I am tired", Aman said keeping his book after an hour.

Hearing that tired word from him, Virat kept his file and closed his laptop. To which Aman smiled and they kept things properly, wrapping it up in his cabin.

"You really look so worn out Virat, you are aging earlier than you should", said Aman seeing his tired eyes.

Virat shook his head, "You worry too much", he said driving the car.

"Let's have tea, wo tapri wali please-- saari tiredness nikal jayegi", Aman requested to which Virat didn't agree.

"Please Virat bhai", Aman said, he perfectly knew Virat would agree now. And he really needed it, for him and for Virat too.

Virat stopped his car while Aman opened the window, "Chotu, 2 chai and 1 plate pakode green chutney ke saath", he ordered.

"I know you have not eaten anything", Aman said as Virat was gonna question him, "please mana mat karo bhai", he requested.

Virat just patted his cheeks affectionately, how much his baby brother has grown seeing Virat that he takes care of his every single thing.

"Bhai, rules-- no smoking in the car", Aman scolded, "sorry", said Virat keeping it back.

Once the tea and snacks arrived, Aman himself made Virat eat properly which made Virat smile. They were having tea when Aman noticed Rohit at the same tea stall having his tea.

"Bhai, look Rohit is there", said Aman to which Virat looked how lost he was having his tea in silence.

"It's been 45 mins we sent him, right? He is still here", Virat asked to which Aman also looked at Rohit worriedly.

Aman went to him while Virat sat in the car.

"Rohit", Aman called getting his attention. Rohit was surprised to see Aman there.

"What are you doing here?", Rohit asked getting up.

"We were just having some tea, don't you wanna go home?", Aman asked and Rohit just nodded at that he was going.

Rohit started walking but Aman held his hand, "Come we will drop you", he said taking him towards the car.

Rohit saw Virat there, "I will go by myself, I don't wanna bother", he said.

"Get in the car Rohit", said Virat and Aman also said him softly to which he sat at the back and Aman got in the front, Virat drove towards Rohit's apartment.
