You, Me & Destiny

8. My Everything.

As I entered my room, I saw someone seated on my bed.

Ya allah!

"Ww-who are you?" I ask.

The person turned around, and the next moment,

I was stunned.

"Bhaiyya?"

"Yes, my dear."

I ran into his arms and embraced him in a tight hug. My brother is back. OMG! I can't believe it.
Allah knows, how much I missed him.

"W-when did you come?" I ask, tears in my eyes, my voice stuttered.

"Its been a few hours,
How is my aloo(potato)?"
He says referring me.

"BHAIYYA!" I shrieked, amd started running after him, down the stairs, he was trying to get the sofa between us.

"Arre, what is happening here."
My mum asks, her hands on her waist.

"Maa!!, he's calling me aloo AGAIN,
And mumma how come you din't inform me about his arrival."

"Because, I wanted it to be a suprise aloo."

"MUMMMM"

"You two will remain kids forever."
She sighs and leaves the room.

I chased him all around the house,
When I finally got hold of him,
I knew exactly what to do.

I grabbed his hair and started pulling it.

"Aloo, huh?
Look what this aloo can do now."

"Ahhh! Leave me sarah, whats wrong with you.
You want me get  bald?"
Ya! Allah!"he shouts.

Whereas I chuckled.
Finally I let go of him.

-----------------------------------------------------
Life somehow felt complete, my brother, my partner-in-crime,my dearest friend, my joker, my strenght, my support system.
Words will not be able to describe, what he meant to me.
After his high school, he had gone to another state, to continue his higher education.

My life whereas had become a mess that time, I was young, I was still that younger sister whose brother would be there for her like a shadow.

And when he suddenly left, I was shattered, lost.
I wasn't used to staying away from him.

I missed him. A lot.

In these past few years, he would rarely visit us, his uni was giving him a tough time unlike others.
He worked hard and finally got a job and settled there for a few months.

He promised he would be back.
And, Alhumdullilah he's back.
He's going to stay with us, Again.
Im so happy.
It's going to be like old times.

"Snap out of your dreams." My brother said clicking fingers in my face.

"Stop, bro." I say pushing his hand back, he chuckled in response.

His face has gone all red due to heat here .
He resembled a lot like mom, whereas I resembled dad. Nobody would believe we were siblings, because there were very few features common in us.
And that's  when observed carefully.

He had a light skintone, with dark brown hair, his eyes a similar colour to that of his hair,  bridgy nose, and a sharp jawline.

Whereas me, I had a medium skintone, chubby face , light brown eyes and nose no where like his.

We were different

"Were does your mind keep dissappearing."

"No where! I'm just happy you are here."

"Aww! My chubby saaru, getting all emotional huh?" He says pinching my cheeks.

"Oww! Stop."

Meanwhile the waiter comes with a tray of icecream.

"Icecreeaaaammmm" we both squeal together.
Yeah, we LOVE icecream.

"Here! Take yours, he says handing me a medium- sized cup while having a spoon of it."
I snatch it from him.

"why can't you eat yours, always steals my icecream, huh!" I say while taking a spoon of it.

He shrugs.

Yummm!

"Shaheer bhai?"

"Yeah"

"How does it feel to stay away from your family for such a long time?"

"It was tough, saaru. But then there was purpose behind me staying there away from you guys, and that gave me motivation to work hard.

If I was staying away from you guys for that, It should be worth it!

And that lead me here."
He says looking into my eyes.

I'm so proud of him.

"Aha" I reply. Not knowing  what to say.

"We should get some for mum too, she'll love it." He says trying to cheer me up.

"Yepp!"
