MS came out of his room nth time that night fidging his mobile. He checked Hardik's room again as he again tried to call Hardik but the result is the same. The door is still locked and Phone is still switched off.
Hardik went for some party in the club nearby but it was long past the time he was supposed to come causing MS worry. Signing he walked down to reception talking his wallet and international driving licence.
When he reached the lobby he saw Hardik the main door. He signed in relief for a second before disappointed took over as he saw semi-conscious Hardik strolling in with the security guard balancing him.
"I will take him. Thank you." MS said to the security guard as he took over slobby Hardik. And started dragging Hardik to his room. Glad that it's not India... This could be breaking news if any Indian reporter saw this.
"Bhhhaaaaaiii... I enjoyed sooooooo much." Hardik spoke as he registered MS.
"I can see that." MS snapped. " Don't shout Now."
He dragged Harry to his room as Harry went on mumbling something incoherently.
Harry collapsed on the bed the moment he saw it.
"Harry one minute...sleep properly." He spoke as he tried to adjust him on the bed.
"Bhhhaaaiiiiii... Heaaaad achhhe..... It's bursting." Harry said in a drunk incoherent tone.
"Ha... Don't you know that while drinking so much? Why drink so much that you can't handle yourself." MS scolded as he started removing his Shoes, Watches and chain.
"I...It's hurting." Hardik wailed. "I feel like puking."
"Shhh... Sleep. It's will be fine." MS spoke as he started pressing his Hardik head until Hardik drifted into deep slumber snuggling into him.
Next day morning Hardik felt someone shaking him severely. "Get up Harry." He heard Mahi Bhai's stern voice.
"Ahh...My head... " He said holding his head as he sat on the bed
"You should have had that scene last night," MS spoke as he trusted lemonade in his hand.
"Drink it," he ordered. Hardik obeyed still in a daze. He didn't remember coming back last night. I do remember sitting the taxi and telling addresses to the driver...But after that... Ahh.. .my head...It's gonna burst.
" What was that last night? Did you return at 3 in the morning even after knowing that you have a practise session today? Remember what was your condition yesterday night Hardik?" MS asked sharply. He was highly disappointed.
"Ha... Yesterday it was a little too late. Sorry." Hardik said casually.
"Do you even remember this is your 3rd party in this series? And you would have been late to practice today. This is heights of being irresponsible Hardik. If you can't manage your limits and maintain time you are grounded for the next three months." MS spoke out angrily.
"Stop Treating me as a kid Bhai. You cannot treat me as a child, I am an adult I can do things the way I like, if I am late to practice coach and captain will deal with it...you cannot ground me." Hardik snapped. This headache and MS's angry tone has irritated him enough.
"Adult? Very well then...I will treat you as an adult." MS said calmly after a minute. He silently started arranging his stuff and kept Hardik's stuff on the bed. It's when Hardik realised that he is in Bhai's room. He meekly collected his stuff and went back to his room.
Only after having long cold shower things sink into Hardik. He did cross his limits and also talked rudely to Bhai. He felt even more guilty when he saw his phone having so many of the missed calls from MS last night. Not really surprising... MS generally won't sleep until they return if any one of them goes out.
