RAABTA : A collection of short stories

14/Epilogue

"Toh aage ka kya plan hai tumlogon ka" Adil asked Asif and Aqib who were busy playing carrom with Anaya and Humeira.
Adil was sitting next to Anaya who would occassionaly give him the striker.

"Bhai...thode toh maze karne dein....phir to office office khelna hi hai" Asif pouted

"Maine tum teenon ke liye Masters ke admission forms mangwa liye hain" Adil said trying to aim for the queen

"Yay.....queen hamari" Anaya cheered but frowned not finding Asif and Aqib there......"bhaijaan kahaan gaye"

"Hum yahaan hain" Adil immediately looked down finding both of them in his feet "Bhai don't do this to us"

"Utho...kya kar rahe ho" Adil frowned

"Humne agle saal Masters ka plan kiya hai........." they cried

"Aur is saal ko hum bhul jaate hain nahin......" sarcasm was dripping out of Adil's words

"Haan bhai" they showed their teeth

"Kal se office me dikhne chahiye tum teeno mujhe" he got up with a warning

"Aapki jagah hum kaise le sakte jain bhai"

"Aao kal...tumhein tumhari jagah dikhata hun" Adil gritted his teeth and walked away.

"Bhai......" next they moved to Arham's legs.........

"Arre internship me toh maza aata hai....aap log ro kyun rahe hain" Anaya asked making Arham smirk

"Adil bhai ke under maza bhi saza lagegi....." Aqib twitched his lips "chal kahin bhaag chalte hain"

"Haan...sahi hai .....kahaan ka plan hai" Arham smiled

"Ye toh aap batayenge .... finance toh aap hi karenge"

Before Arham could pick the water bottle to throw at them, they were on their toes.

"Gadhe"

-----------------

"Yeah...yeah" Aqib was busy with a female staff when Adil came there with his hands in his pockets.

"Mr Khan...."

"Tch....hmmm bolo" Aqib was too busy to notice the voice he absolutely dreaded

"Adil sir" the girl mumbled

"Unka naam aisi jagahon par nahin lena chahiye" Aqib flirted

"Aur aisi jagaho par aap ka naam sunehre aksharon me likhwana chahiye....nai "

The realization dawned and he at once turned "Bhai....kuch financial statements ke baare me discuss kar raha tha..."

"Discussion to maine suna..kaafi acha tha"

"Bas..bhai aap se seekha hai" Aqib politely smiled

"Cabin me aayein aur bhi kuch sikhata hun" with that Adil sauntered away.

"Bhai........aa jaun" Aqib finally reached Adil's cabin after a good 30 minutes to escape any kind of mood swings he caused just a while back.

"Aaein...aaein...beshak aaein"

"Kya hua.....ye chehra kyun utra hua hai......?" Adil asked pointing towards a chair

"Bahut kaam ka stress hai bhai....." Aqib slumped his shoulders

"Acha....subah se kya kya kiya...mujhe report dena zara.......zyada kaam hai to recruitment hogi....." Adil sounded serious

"Subah se ...subah se"
