Headache To Sore Shoulder (Translated Version)

Start from the beginning
                                    

As soon as the bus started moving Shubman fell asleep his head lolled and slumped against Ishan's shoulder. Ishan froze and sat up ramrod straight to make sure the height difference didn't make it uncomfortable for Shubman to rest on his shoulders. And that is how they reached the Mumbai airport. Even though the distance between the hotel and the airport wasn't much Ishan's hand had fallen asleep on the journey and his back felt overstretched but he couldn't care less about that as right now all his attention was directed towards making sure the least amount of camera flashes were reaching Shubman as he directed the tired, half asleep Prince through the crowd all the way to the plane.

When they got to their seats Ishan made Shubman take some medicines and within 10 mins of take off they were both back in the same position as before, this time for about 2 and a half hours to Ishan's horror.

About half way through the flight Ishan's back to his right hand were all sore and hurting especially his shoulder, he tried moving his finger trying to bring some sensation back into them making sure it won't wake Shubman.

Virat noticed his discomfort from the seat across " Aree utha de usko hath daard ho rha hai toh" ("hey wake him up if you arms are hurting")  he suggested "nhi nhi bhaiya, koi nhi sone dijiye isko" ("no no bhaiya it is okay let him sleep")  Rohit who was sitting with Virat leaned forward to look at the kids and at seeing the position volunteered "Mai utha du ? Aase toh daard ho jayega tere shoulders mei Ishu" ("Should i wake him ? Your shoulders will develop pain in that position Ishu") " Nhi Rohit bhai sone do headache hai usko, 1 ghanta hi toh aur hai rhne do" ("No Rohit bhai let him sleep he has a headache, it's just 1 hour more let him be"). Virat and Rohit did try a few more times but eventually gave up trying to convince Ishan to wake Shubman up.

15 mins before landing Shubman finally woke up.He rubbed his eyes trying to take in his surroundings. Ishan passed a closed bottle that he failed to open for Shubman as his hands were not listening to him " ye le " ("here")  Shubman gulped the water feeling a little more awake " thik hai abb tu ? " ("you okay now ?") Ishan asked him in the softest tone he had ever heard him use " haa kafi better" ("Yup a lot better")
"Good, chalo phir 15 mins mei landing hai mai washroom se aata hu" ("Good, we are landing in 15 mins i am going to the washroom be right back")

Virat leaned towards his seat and offered Shubman some snacks chuckling. Shubman accepted the snacks and questioned him " hass kyu rhe ho ?" ("Why are you laughing ?") " kuch nhi baas tum dono" ("nothing just you two") slightly tilting his head towards the washroom "pagal ho" ("are crazy") Virat replied. "Kyu?" ("Why?") Shubman asked confused "bhaiya kuch bhi ho Shubu ko nhi uthana chahe mera hath tut ke alag bhi kyu na ho jaye" ("bhaiya no matter what happens don't wake Shubu up doesn't matter if my hands fall off") Virat dramatically mimicked Ishan laughing with Rohit, but Shubman did not find this as funny like his seniors did.

What was that idiot thinking sitting in the same position through two plus hours of flight plus the bus in pain just so I could sleep...is he crazy??

When Ishan came back to his seat massaging his shoulder Shubman voiced his thoughts aggressively " tu pagal hai utha nhi skta tha mujhko " ("are you mad you couldn't have woken me up")  Ishan understood what Shubman was taking about without needing any further explanation "Aree sir dard ho rha tha tera mai socha sone du isme gussa hone wali kya baat hai" ("Aree your head was hurting so i thought i will let you sleep there is no reason to get angry") " gussa hone wali ye baat hai ki-" ("the reason for anger is that-") Shubman got cut off by the pilot informing the passengers about preparing to land. He decided to speak to Ishan later in private.

When the plane landed Ishan reached up to the overhead storage to take his carry on bag out but he dropped it on the floor as his tired hands could somehow not support the weight.

Before Ishan could pick the bag up again Shubman had already gathered both of their bags in his hands "chal tu mai utha leta hu" ("go on I will carry it"). Ishan didn't even get a moment to protest as Shubman had already walked out.

When they settled down in the team bus before Shubman could say a word Ishan said "Tu pure raaste sote hue aaya hai thora sa mujhko bhi sone de, thak gya hu pura" ("you have slept the whole way let me sleep a little as well, I am completely drained") and soo Shubman shut up and just held Ishan tightly against his chest for the last 30 mins of the travel.

They were sharing a room in the hotel. Ishan had already gone up to the room while Shubman was discussing something with Hardik. When Shubman got to the room he saw Ishan rummaging through his luggage unpacking it all "Aree kyu saman nikal rha hai sara phir dikat hoga packing mei" ("Aree why are you taking out all of your things you will have trouble with packing again") " tu samjhta nhi hai bag mei kya kapre rkhe hai ye yaad thori rehta hai bag se saare kapre nikal ke dekhunga tab toh acche outfits pehen paunga" ("you don't understand i don't remember all the clothes i have in my bag i will take them all out look at them and only then will be able to design good outfits") Shubman just smiled at his friend's antics shaking his head. The smile dulled when he noticed Ishan seeming to be in pain when moving his right shoulder.

"Ishu idhar aa, yha baith" ("Ishu come here, sit down")  he called him closer gesturing at the space on the bed beside him. Ishan did as asked "piche ghum" ("turn around")  Shubman carefully started massaging Ishan's shoulder trying to unwind his tense muscles. Ishan groaned in relief his head going limp.

They sat their for a while in silence, Shubman massaging Ishan and Ishan enjoying every bit of it basking in Shubman's warm hands.

"Tu kyu kiya aasa pagal " ("why did you do that you idiot") Shubman smacked Ishan's head before continuing with the massage "Ahh......Shub tu pata nhi baas mai bilkul bhi nhi dekh sakta tujhko pain mei tujhko dard hota hai toh mujhe bura lgta hai bilkul ander se accha nhi lgta" ("Ahh......Shub you i don't know just I can't see you in pain when you are in pain I feel really bad it really hurts me from within")  Ishan tried to explain the emotions he felt that morning when he saw Shubman in pain.

"Mujhe bhi" ("I feel the same") Ishan turned around to face Shubman at his reply. " mujhe pata hai kuch zyada nhi hua tujhko aaram se thik jo jayega...hath tut nhi hau tera" ("i know nothing has happened to you it's not a big deal and you will be fine...your hand hasn't fallen off")  they both chuckled at that " pr phir bhi jab pata chala ki tujhe yek second ke liye bhi dard hua meri wajh se toh bhot zyada bura laga. Tu yek second mujhe utha ke position change krne bol deta toh kuch nhi hota..smajha" ("but still when i got to know that you were in pain even for one second because of me i felt really really bad. If you had just woken me up for one second and told me to change my position nothing would have happened..you understand")
"Hmm sorry " ("Yes sorry")
" phir bhi thank you mera khyal rkhna ke liye" ("still thank you for taking care of me")
They both smiled lovingly at each other.

"Aree woh blue shirt hai kya jo tujhko diya tha dekh mere pass hi tha dekha bola tha na isiliye jaruri hh bag ka sara saman nikalna......" ("Hey is that the blue shirt i gave to you see it was with me the whole time do you understand now why it is important to take everything out of your bag.......")

Shubman just sat there smiling at Ishan's blabbering looking at how cute his chaotic little pocket dynamite was. And the only thought in his head was...

God!...I love him ❤️
