Inside ICT

4. Like fathers, (un) like daughters

'Ahem ahem.' Virat faked a cough.

'Nice joke bhai.' Shrey said.

'Shut up fools. ' Ro snapped.

'Will you all shut up for a minute. Such a headache you all are.' I said.

'Even you have started now?' Jassi asked.

'How much more do I control myself? Even my patience has a limit. Always fighting for something or the other.' I complained.

'Welcome to the club.' Rits said.

'Jinks, Jassi, Bhuvi, Ash, KL are the only sane ones here. Everyone else is a crackhead. Welcome to ICT, dear Krithi.' Anushka said.

'I am sane too.' Shrey said.

'Yeah, I saw all the sanity in you, today morning. Don't even talk about it.' I said.

'If you are getting irritated after spending so less days, what am I supposed to say?' Mahi bhai sighed.

'Dada and Sachin paaji used to always say that you and yuvi pa were also like this. You are giving us Gyan now.' Virat said.

'Oh, is it?' Mahi bhai said pinching Virat's ear.

'Bhai, I had undergone a surgery and is this how you treat me?' Virat said.

'Then what are we supposed to do?' Jassi asked.

'Entertain me.' Virat said folding his hands.

'Acha. Should we dance and sing now?' Ro asked.

'Yes. You should.' Virat said.

'Why?'

'Because I have undergone a surgery.' He's sticked to that one sentence.

'Someone ask the nurse to give him Anastasia again. He's irritating us.' Ro said.

'Shut your mouth Ro.'

'You shut your mouth Vee.'

'Both of you shut your mouth.' Mahi bhai ordered.

'Jassi, you sing a song and Shrey, you dance.' Virat said.

'I am not going to sing.' Jassi said.

'Fine. Krithi, you sing then.' he said looking at me.

'No Virat. I can't sing.' I said.

'Dance then.' he said.

'I can't dance either.' I said.

'What can you do then?' he asked.

'Sir's food is ready.' the nurse said knocking the door.

'Come inside.' Anushka said warmly.

After she left, Anushka started feeding him his food.

'Eww. Is this called as food. I don't want it.' Virat said with a disgusted face.

'Stop being an ass Vee. Shut up mouth and eat it.' Ro said.

'How can a human eat with his mouth closed.' Virat asked.

'Insert it in your nose or ear, I don't care. Just shut your mouth.' Ro said.

Sammy who was sleeping in Rithika's arms until then has finally woken up.

'Dada Dada.' she called him wiping her eyes.

'Haa baba. You woke up already. Come to dada.' he said took her for Rits's arms.

'You talk so lovingly with her. And look at how you talk to me.' Virat whined.

'Dada, are we talking to him now?' Sammy asked Ro, pointing at Virat.

'Yes baba, we are. Want to go to him?' Ro asked.

'No. I want Vamika, not him.' she said making us all laugh , except Virat.

'You don't want me but want my daughter?' Virat asked.

'You are scary. But Vamika is cute.' she said.

'Great. Your daughter cries seeing me while my daughter says you are scary.' Ro said.

'It's your mistake' Anushka said.

'Right. If you two didn't let your foolish ego's come in between, the story would have been so different.' Rits said.

'Do you guys realise something, we still haven't talk about your reconciliation.' Shrey said.

'You guys must be thinking and Gossiping something about it, right. Tell us that.' Virat said.

'We knew that you two reconciled. I mean, ofcourse Ro is at the hospital for Virat. But what exactly has happened?' Shrey asked.

'I want to know too.' Harry said coming inside the room.

'Were you eavesdropping?' Jassi asked.

'Am sure he must be behind the door all this time.' Shrey said.

'Or do you expect me to go away like that?' Harry asked.

'Dramebaaz harry.' I said.

'Harry chachu.' Sammy called me.

'My Sammy. Come to me.' he said and took her into his arms.

'You don't find him scary, but me. Great.' Virat said.

'Don't get offended now. It will take time now.' Rits said.

'Ok now. Let's all go out. It's time for Virat to take rest now.' Mahi bhai reminded.

'Noo. I will get bored again.' Virat said.

'Don't worry. I and Anushka are gonna sleep here.' Ro said.

'Ok then.' Virat beamed.

We all left the hospital and went back to the hotel.
