Shubman’s life was far from normal these days.

It had been a month.. one whole month.. since he had last seen Ishan, and things had only gone downhill.

At first, he had managed. Sure, he missed the chaotic energy that came with Ishan, the random voice notes full of nonsense, and the late-night rants about food cravings.

But he had convinced himself it was fine. Bas thoda time aur, phir milega.

But then, out of nowhere, things started to spiral.

People online had turned against him overnight, spreading hateful rumors about, his personal life, his character...things that weren’t even true.

At first, he ignored it.

"Be strong, Shubu. Main hoon na," Ishan’s voice echoed in his head.

He held onto that. He tried to believe it.

But every passing day made it harder.

The weight of those words, those baseless accusations, started pressing on his chest.

His cricket suffered.

His mind wasn’t in the game.

The frustration built up, the fear crept in.

He didn’t even realize when it started affecting his performance, until today

An important match.

A chance to prove himself.

A chance to shut everyone up.

He failed.

10 runs. Out. Just like that.

And the worst part? He didn’t even feel angry.

Just… hollow.

So when he returned to his room that night, shoulders slumped, eyes empty, he had no energy left

He didn’t even bother turning on the lights properly

He just wanted to collapse on the bed and disappear.

But then

"SURPRISEEEE!"

Shubman blinked.

The lights flicked on fully, and there he was.. standing in the middle of the room, hands in the air like a total idiot. Ishan.

For a second, Shubman just stared.

He was supposed to feel something, right? Shock? Happiness? Relief?

Nothing came.

Ishan’s excited smile faltered a little.

Ishan : Arre? Kya yaar, yeh kya reaction hai? At least pretend to be happy!!

Ishan : Maine itni mehnat ki tujhe surprise dene ke liye. Bilkul emotionless aadmi hai tu.

But Shubman still didn’t say anything.

Didn’t laugh.

Didn’t react.

Instead
