Virat was really happy now as he was back with Rohit as roommates. It was so difficult for him to adjust without him.

Rohit came in the room and saw Virat was happily humming a song and arranging the things in the room. Rohit was happy to see him like that.

"Finally done ... Ro dekh maine sab thik se arrange kar Diya ... I am so happy Bhai told me to shift back with you !!!"
Virat exclaimed happily as Rohit entered the room.

"Chal ab breakfast Karle .. u only had Maggie last night"
Rohit said and arranged breakfast for both of them.

"Ro, Mahi bhai wo upset toh nahi honge na mujh se?
(Mahi bhai will not be upset with me Na?)"
Virat asked while Ro was making him have his breakfast.

"Why will he be upset with you ?"
Asked Rohit in confusion.

"Wo pehle I came in your room .. he got tensed because of that .. phir he shifted me in your room !!
Will he think that I don't want to share room with him ? But I promise aise nahi hai ... but just I can't .. I don't know why ... I just feel safe with you !!"
Virat said ...

Rohit smiled at his innocence.

"Vi he is not upset with u at all ... he knows you would be comfortable staying with me so he shifted u back ...
he thought so much for u see .. u have to also do something now??" ,
Rohit explained him softly.

"Kya Ro .. what I have to do??"
Virat asked curiously.

"Tujhe pata hai why Mahi bhai shifted u back in the room ...
because he didn't want to risk for your health as u were not sleeping and eating properly"
Rohit began.

"Really ??"
Virat asked shocked by that.

"Yea and at first he wanted u to stay with him ... because he wants u to interact with the team ...
Abhi u just talk with me .. or Mahi bhai or even Yuvi pa sometimes ... but Vi it doesn't work that way ..
this team is a family ... so u have to talk to all of them !!"
Rohit explained him ... making him understand why it was important...

"Par Ro I am scared ... what if they judge me and not like me as I am ..
I don't know why I will not be able to handle that !!!"
said Virat being scared ... as he had faced it .. how people mocked his feelings previously regarding scared of being in dark or small places or growing up in orphanage...

"Vi Nothing like that will happen ... they are all very nice ... and I am there Na with you .. I am always there by your side so don't worry about it okay!"
said Rohit assuring him.

"I will try"
Virat said back.

"Don't overthink about it now ... breakfast kha thik se"
Rohit said seeing him immediately lost in thoughts!

"Tu khila de"
said Virat forwarding the plate to him.

"Kal pata hai mai Kitna dar gaya tha ... I thought u got bored of me and so ignored me!!"
said Virat eating breakfast.

"Vi U have very small brain and u should use that in cricket only ...
stop overthinking about me leaving you because it's not gonna happen"
said Rohit firmly.

"Promise ??"
Virat asked like a child ..

"Mummy promise ... what are you 10? ...
Aise kon promise bolta hai... Pagal!!!"
Rohit said seeing him asking like a child ...
