"Eliminating the one's who try to overpower us is a part of game-a sick game."

Isha...

I laugh as Om spoke about his college friend. Others laugh as he imitates his friend who has apparently went to impress a girl, only to get smashed and rolled on the floor. It was breakfast time and like every other day it was filled with laughter.

Ughh....

It's reminding me my home...

I let out a sigh, looking dow with a small side smile on my face. I felt a tap on my thigh as I look at Ishu raising my brows. He wiggle his arms to take him in my embrace. He sensed that I'm sad and he knows only he can make me happy. Smiling softly I pick him up and make him sit on my lap.

"Feed me." He nudge me to feed him. It's been days since I've fed him with my own hands. Smiling I tore a piece of bajra roti, dipping it in the lahsun chutney a little I feed him. He closes his eyes falling Back-on my chest, moaning. A laugh erupts from my mouth.

"Jannat.." he moans and opens his mouth again. Chuckling I tore another piece and fed him. He wraps his arms around me and kiss my forehead. "I'm here, mumma." How am I this lucky? How did I get this much lucky? "Smile, Ishu..." He snuggles into my chest pouting....

How can I smile when my parents are there worrying about me?

How can I smile when my senior is sad there?

How can I...smile?

How can I smile leaving them in dark?

I... can't.

I know Ishu is with me. My only pacifier, my earth. He'll be with me, forever. No one can make us apart. No one. Suddenly I felt eyes on me, looking up I awkwardly smile. Why is everyone gazing at us like that? They have soft smile on their face.

"What happened, Isha beta?" Jaya dadu spoke, his voice came out worried. "Nothing, dadu." I shake my head looking down at Ishu who kept pouting at me. Cute! I kiss his forehead than his small cute nose. His giggles echoed in the dining hall. "Why are you sad, beta?" Prithvi uncle asks me.

But, how can they see that I'm sad? Did I say it out aloud? I-

"Nothing, uncle. I'm fine." I looked at them in eye for few seconds than nod my head. I'm fine! Om cleared his throat gaining everyone's attention, he spoke. "Now that my gorgeous is sad. Let me tell you a joke to brighten your mood." He laughs awkwardly rubbing his nape.

"No please! Your jokes are useless, like you." He gasped at Anjali who waved her hands in no. "U-useless?" He points towards himself in disbelief. "Yes, anju didi is right! Useless!" Anki sides with Anjali and nod their head together agreeing with eachother. Om slumped on his chair sulking.

Everyone Snickers at Om, and rameena looks at them with impassive look. But her eyes says different. "Om, your jokes aren't logical they're......" Arvind uncle's trailed off lowering his voice as he caught Om giving him an accusing look.

"Fine!" He said determined, banging his hand on the table a little. "This time my jokes will be logical." Everyone nod their head for him to continue while anki and Anjali cover their ears.....even Adhiraaj looks reluctant to hear Om.

"Om, you say na. I'll listen to you." Om's eyes brighten hearing Ishu. He gave a flying kiss from the other side to Ishu who did the same. He cleared his throat and started. "Why did the banana go to hospital?"
