Vansh and Kushi walked into their apartment tiredly
Kushi threw her bag onto the couch and plopped herself beside it with a relieved groan
"Goodness! I feel so tired" Kushi said
"Ofcourse. You ought to. You just started world war III didn't you" Vansh said as he sat next to her.
Kushi looked at her brother sharply
"I started?? Really?? You are saying this Vanshu! That bad boy is the one who started. He hit you Vansh. Hit you!! My brother! How dare he? Did you think I would just let it go ,if some spoiled brat bullies my brother?" Kushi asked furiously
"Will you stop it and listen to me for a moment. I have been trying to say this for God knows how long."
"What?? He might be your childhood bestfriend. But that is no excuse for you to defend him. He hit you. I hit him. We are equal now" Kushi said adamantly
"No. You misunderstood the situation and over reacted"
"What the hell! How is defending my brother over reaction?"
"I didn't need defending Kushi. He didn't hit me. He saved me" Vansh said
"Saved you from what?" Kushi snorted
"My phone was dead. I was trying to charge it. The socket was open and I got an electric shock. He saved me" Vansh said and Kushi stared at him
"Oh" she said
"Oh?? That's what you say? Oh!! Mistake is yours Kushi. You should apologise to him. Instead you punched him and fought with him for some silly reasons."
"I didn't see you getting shock na? I only saw him hitting you with his bag. You know how I'm. If anyone hurts you ,I get hurt" Kushi said with puppy eyes melting Vansh's already marshmallow heart
"I know Kush. But he was not at fault. So, the next time you see him, apologise. Okay?"
"Do I have to?" Kushi asked making a face
Apologise to the badboy? Her ego wouldn't be able to bear it. Damn it!
"Kushi.." Vansh called in a stern tone
"Fine fine. For you ,I will apologise"
"Don't apologise for my sake. Apologise because you realise you did wrong"
"Okay baba. I get the point. Let's not talk about the badboy anymore" Kushi said
"Okay. I will order some food for us" Vansh said and opened his phone to order food online.
"We should have brought Neha along" Kushi said as she saw Vansh ordering pizza for them
Vansh laughed
"Maybe I will order one for her too, with her hostel address. Call her and tell her to wait for it" Vansh said as he ordered one for their cousin too.
Kushi dialled Neha's number who picked up the call on the second ring
"Hello Kushi di" came the chirpy response from the other side
"Neha. We are ordering a pizza for you. Keep your phone with you. I will call you when we get the notification for food delivery" Kushi said
"Woohoo. You two are the best. I love you loads and loads and loads" Neha squealed in excitement

Zian pressed an ice pack onto Zahir's nose and and he winced slightly
"Damn it" he cursed
"Does it hurt?" Zian asked
"No" Zahir refused ,or rather his pride refused.
Zian and Zada rolled their eyes
"You are not going to lose your macho image if you admit to your siblings that it hurts."
"It doesn't hurt"
"Yeah right. That's why you have been wincing ever since we started tending to your wound" Zian said
"I'm not a baby. I don't need tending damn it" Zahir said earning another eye roll from his siblings.
"What is the actual relationship between your nose and Kushi's fist Zahir?" Zada asked cheekily
"Shut up. That girl is crazy mad"
"Aww. Iss pyaar ko kya naam doon??" Zada teased and Zian chuckled
"For heaven's sake. Can we stop talking about her. Ye uski roz ka khel hei. Always misunderstands me and attacks me." Zahir grumbled
"Aww. Zahir boo is hurt??"
"Get lost"
"Zi! Don't you think it's time for payback?" Zada asked making Zian frown
"What payback?"
"Remember how he called momma and told the whole family about you and Neha?" Zada asked
Zian smirked and Zahir stared at them in horror.
"Noooo"
"Zi. Call momma" Zada said and threw herself over her brother ,tackling him
Zahir tried to get out of Zada's hold. It was not very difficult, but if he used force ,she would get hurt and he didn't want to hurt her.
Zada ,very well knew her brother wouldn't hurt her and took full advantage of that knowledge.
Zian dialled his mother's number and waited for her to pick up the call
"Zian baby. How are you?" Gauri asked with a smile ,and then frowned hearing the voices from the other side
"What's going on?" She asked
"Momma. See this" Zian said showing Zahir's face on the camera
Gauri gasped seeing her son's wounded nose
"Zada!! Did you punch your brother?" Gauri asked seeing their position.
"Not me momma. Guess who did it!" Zada said getting up
"Who dared to hurt my baby?? I'm coming there." The momma lion came out in full form
"Relax Gauri. It must be some girl" Omkara commented from the bed where he was lying and patting Zera to sleep.
"Papa! You guessed right" Zada clapped
"Zada!!" Gauri warned
"Its true momma. And guess who the girl is!"
"How would I know??" Gauri said ,her eyes still on Zahir's nose checking whether the injury is worse.
"Just rewind fifteen years and try to remember who did this back then??" Zada gave a hint
Gauri's brows furrowed as she tried to remember
Zahir huffed in annoyance
"Can you all please stop. Don't make a big deal out of this"
"Little Kushi?" Gauri asked
Zada clapped letting her mother know that her guess is right.
"Kushi who?" Omkara asked
"Remember the girl whom he kissed on stage during that Cinderella play?" Gauri asked
Zahir neck and ears turned a shade of red remembering that incident
"Okay. That's it. Discussion over" Zahir said and walked into his room leaving his siblings a laughing mess.
