"I feel, that no matter how old you become,
when you are with your siblings, you revert back to childhood."
~ Author
Same day, In early evening; Everyone was in the Mahajan Mansion seating in the terrace except Ishana and Yug.
Yug is still not back from his work and Ishana's not out from the room, doing some works
"Chashu. Wh-at aftel (after) tomo--ow?" Akshu look down in her lap at Kshitij, who's beaming happily
He's expecting her to tell him, it's his birthday. That's what he's doing from morning, asking the same question to everyone.
"What is it, Monkey??" Akshu frowning acting like she's thinking. "Nothing. Is there something??" She look down at him as he pout at her
Ragini chuckle on him as Kshitij's attention fell on Ishana, standing down standing in the garden, now talking with Vikram.
Kshitij came down from Akshu's lap and Instantly his small yet sharp brain played Rohan's conversation with him.
~~ Flashback ~~
"VB is all-soo my." He said as Rohan nods repeatedly in a single beat
"Both of ours, okay?" Kshitij nods again.
"Then, when I won't be there, who'll protect your VB and my Sweetheart?"
"Kshitij." He chirped, folding his arms showcasing non-existent muscles.
Rohan smile little on that. "Yes. So? What will Kshitij do??" Rohan asked
"Kshitij, shoo bad Boys." He said so proudly.
"That's my boy!" Rohan grin as both of them share a hi-fi
~~ Flashback ends~~
"VB."
"VvvvvBbbb!!!"
With Kshitij's call Ishana got interrupted as she look up towards the terrace
"Com- Comm.." He called her showing his hand to call her, almost hovering over the railings
"Kshitij. Don't do that." Ishana scolded with a frown
"I'll talk with you later." She said to Vikram, seeing the boy still stood there stubbornly
"But I need to-- Ishana." Vikram call her
"Later, Vik. I'll meet you tomorrow in office. Thanks for the file and you don't have to come for this trivial things." Ishana said and walk inside
Vikram sighed, "I came to meet you." He mumbled and look towards the terrace and waved at Kshitij
Kshitij clearly make a face and ran towards Ishana, who entered the terrace
"What happened to you?? Tell me." She walk towards him and seated beside Raj, as Eric placed his head on her lap, seating on the soft rug at floor
Kshitij frown on that as he came and seat on Ishana's lap, shoving Eric's head away
Ishana look amused-ly at the duo as both of them frown at eachother and scowl. Kunal laugh seeing them with others.
"You little brat!!" Eric hiss and took him down from Ishana to his own lap. Kshitij tried to protest but in vain
"Wow! Is there something in the air of Corporate world? Especially, the Builders and infrastructure line." Kunal sounded amused
"The day of Akshu and Yuvi's wedding. Aviraj Mehta is going to engaged, too." He added
"Yeah! I also saw that. The girl is Doctor by profession. They're dating." Eric added
"Yes. I got the invitation too." Suraj said as Kunal nods
"Who's Aviraj Mehta?" Ishana asked poking her finger at Raj's arm
Krish scoff on that as others sighed. "As expected." Eric shook his head as Ishana pout at him. "You don't know, who he is?"
"No. Why? Is he some big shot?" She raked her eyes around everyone. "He's also in Construction line. Lives in Sirohi." Raj said
"Ohhh!!" Ishana nods.
"What a shame. While being the MD of MIG, you don't know who's there in same business." Krish mocked her
"So what? He's not so big shot okay. Even if he's. I'm not interested in knowing him, hmph?!" Ishana twitch her corner lips at last
"Not big shot? Then, who's Big shot in yours' eyes?" Krish shot another mocking question
Ishana smile at him. "Dad!" She squeal and hugged Raj, wrapping her arms around his torso and grinned smugly when Krish roll his eyes
"Cheeky much." Eric snort as she poked her tongue and teased him. Raj grinned happily hearing that
"Stop laughing like that. You Scum." Alex said as he rubbed his arms and made a face
"True. I'm getting goosebumps." Suraj too make a face and shudder as Raj roll his eyes on both of them
"Accept it that you're jealous." He spatt back
"Let everyone get married. You stay single till the end of eternity." Kunal scoff hearing Maria's taunt
Ishana leaning her head on Raj's shoulder as he's caressing her head. She sighed softly and close her eyes
"Why you always behaves like step-mother. Will you be happy, if some girl comes and robbed me?" Kunal asked with a sad tone
Eric snort a laugh as Krish bite his inner cheek to control his laugh. Akshu curled her lips inside not wanting to laugh and make Maria more angry
"What happened?" Yug question as he took a seat.
Yug seat beside Ishana. He didn't said much stayed silent and passed a small smile at her and it make the latter frown.
Raj and Suraj look at Sumit with amusement but he just shrug with a face saying, 'I'm-not-Interfering'
"Kunal." Meera called as the boy groan. He knows what coming his ways. "Come and seat beside me."
Kunal didn't opposed and scoot near her as he glare Krish and Eric, who were silently laughing at his condition
Krish sighed and looked back at his phone's screen. A soft smile appear on his face.
Arshi : 'I told you I'll reply... but that doesn't means you'll keep texting me. Krish Mahajan.'
'What is it my fault, that you have 0.1% energy that you keep getting tired.'
Arshi : 'Say that once more. I'll make sure to block you not from social platform but personally too'
Krish chuckle seeing the reply. He decided to text back sweetly not to trigger her more.
"What is it?" Kunal seat near Meera and Ragini.
"Picture of girls." Kunal thinned his lips. He don't want to irritate the whole environment
Sumit chuckle on listening it as Kunal look at his father, while muttering. "Brutus."
He took out the first picture and roll his eyes mentally. "Rejected." He huff a breath
Maria's hands itched to smack his son hard but she controlled the urge. "Why??" Elena frown
"Her nose is too small." Akshu chime in with full seriousness as Kunal stopped himself from grinning
"Like Meera??" Meera scoff and ignored Suraj and his remark as Akshu and others chuckle
Meera pass the second photo. "Rejected."
"Now what is the problem??" Maria sounded irritated
"Her eyes are too big with so less eyelashes." Ishana retrot as she peek a look at the picture over her father's shoulder
Raj gave a look at her as she wink at him and grin. Kunal nods vigorously.
Third time; "Rejected. She'll look so short in front of me." This time Kunal excuse
"Rejected. I shouldn't say, but she's too thin. She'll fly away with a single strong blow of mine." Eric snort amused-ly
Nandhini deadpanned at him as he shrug and look back at his mobile screen, get busy in typing a flirtatious comment on someone's insta post
Again. "Rejected, from my side. Mom, Aunties. Just look at her, she's wearing so long heels. She'll crossed Kunal, and Kunal will look like Eiffel Tower and she'll be Burj Khalifa." Krish tsk away
"Shut up! You won't marry her." Ragini spatt as Krish huff trying to pout but failed badly
"Bhai didn't like her so obviously, I didn't like her." Krish beam listening Kunal's answer as Akshu grin
Krish make a poker face and took a sip from his coffee looking at the book in his hand.
"You are doing it deliberately, right??" Maria glare him as Kunal sighed "No." He frown at her
"Ohhhoo! Aunty, that girl will be our Bhabhi (sister-in-law). We should choose carefully, right?!" Akshu added as Suraj thinned his lips at his daughter's comment
"Yes. Yes. Now how come we'll find such good girl, with good behaviour and good looks." Ishana sighed as her eyes shine with mischief looking at Krish
Yug frown at her extra cheesy smile as he gulp noticing her stares. "Leave Kunal Bhai for now. Aunt." She said and turned her attention at Elena
"What you think about Milli? Did you choose someone for him?" Ishana added patting Eric's shoulder as the boy got alert
"Why it comes on me??" Eric mumbled under his breath as Kunal smiled brightly seeing the diverted attention
Everyone chuckle not on Eric's dumbstruck face but at Kshitij's action. After seeing Ishana patting Eric's shoulder he too did the same, trying to copy his mother
He grinned seeing Ishana looking at him with raised brows. "Copy Cat."
"Cofe C-at." He copied her again.
Ishana shook her head on him, when he grin mischievous-ly. "Tell me." She beamed on it
"Why me?? We were talking about Kunal right." Eric snort on it
"Ohh, shut up!" Elena shut him up as Eric grumble something
"Is he dating someone?" Elena question looking at her Son. As other ladies too look at him
"Really? Who's she??" Ragini beamed as Eric glared at Ishana
Raj, Suraj with both elderly men snort as Alex can't help but laugh with other three boys except Eric
"No. But I've someone in my eyes." Eric gulp on that. Who's she talking about?? Who's there??
He don't want to get into married. Heck, Marriage. He don't want to get into any sort of relationship.
"Ms. Sinha. Arshi."
Krish spit the coffee out. "What?? Arshi DI??" Akshu shouted in shock.
"Yes. She's smart talented beautiful. All in one. Beauty with brains, we say." She smiled at Elena and Meera
"I would love to make her Bhabhi (sister-in-law). What say, Bhai??" She turn at Krish
Raj snicker softly as Ishana blink at Krish's shocked face. "Huhh!!" Hearing the response from her brother, Ishana just want to laugh but she still composed herself
Eric understood the assignment. He took the cue and he beamed. "Yeah! Ms. Sinha is indeed good choice."
"If she's the girl then I'll give it a thought." He added as Elena's brows raised. Is her Son, serious? What's happening?, She wondered.
"What thoughts??" Krish shouted suddenly. All startled with it. "Why you're shouting??" Vijendra frown at him
"Why you're frowning at me. Didn't you heard what he said??" Krish scoff at his grandfather
"What he said? He's right. If I was a boy then I would've proposed her till now." Ishana remarked as she received looks from her parents and Yug
"What? I'm Serious. She's so Desi and perfect. What if she doesn't knows how to fight but she's still strong." Meera nods at her and sighed
"Me too. Imagine my pain. I'm watching DI, from childhood." Akshu pout at Ishana
"I can feel you sister." Ishana make a sad face as Akshu too act to reach out for her with sad expression. Suraj chuckle at both of them.
"Haan, ab bass karo." Yug grumble as he slap both girl's hand which almost over his face as he was the one who's seating between both of them.
(Okay. It's enough.)
They can be really dramatic at a time., Yug scoff eyeing both the girl as they glared him back.
"Shut up! You both are girl, not boy . So let's not discuss this." Krish gritt his teeth. He's already irritated with mere thought of Arshi being with Eric
He never ever have the urge to beat Eric, but today his hands are itching to come with a contact of this Brat, who's his friend
"What?? Why you're getting irritated, Bhaiya? It's not like we're talking about your marriage." Yug stated as a teasing smile lingering on his face
"Shut up!!" Krish spatt
"What, you like her??"
Krish's body stiffened. He didn't thought Ishana would ask it so bluntly.
He gulp when his eyes halted at his mother. The eager and hopeful looks in her eyes makes him feel happy but still he don't want to confess it now
"What you're talking about? I'm just saying that..... That.... everyone is not Akshu. Always eagers to get married." Krish ended as Akshu look at him with a glare
Eric burst into laughter with Yug. "Wait.... wait. Isn't there a Bollywood song in it?" Eric said suddenly. "I heard it few times. It's on Little one's playlist." He added further
🎶Zor ka jhatka haye zoron se laga, haan laga
Shaadi ban gayi umarqaid ki saza, haan saza
Yeh hai udaasi, jaan ki pyaasi
Shaadi se achcha tum le lo faansi
Lakhon dukhon ki hoti hai yeh wajah, haan wajah
Zor ka jhatka haye zoron se laga, haan laga
Shaadi ban gayi umarqaid ki saza, haan saza 🎶
Suddenly Yug sing the lyrics of the song as all bursted into laughter. "Yug Samarth." Akshu chided and glared him
He stopped and frown. "What was after that?? I forgot." He look at Meera. "What was after that??"
"I don't remember." She declined instantly as Yug pout.
🎶Jiski shaadi par jana, usko itna samjhana (×2)
Na kar shaadi, yeh barbaadi, phir na pacchtaana (×2)
Haan mauka hai pagle, shaadi se bachle
Samjha le dil ko yeh shaadi ko machle
Shaadi ke mandap se tu khud ko bhaga, haan bhaga
Zor ka jhatka haye zoron se laga, haan laga🎶
Ishana sang the further lyrics as Meera and other's head snapped towards her in surprise
"She..." Meera's words didn't came out of her throat. It's fours years. Four-hell- years she didn't saw her daughter singing any song, Forget singing, she didn't even hummed any tune
"Ishana. Idiot!!!" Akshu's whin brought everyone back to their senses. Ishana let out a laugh
"It's all cause of you." Akshu grumble and hit Eric's head and ran away when he chase after her
"You come here." Akshu hide behind Krish as Eric tried to grab her
"VB. You sin-gh so pr-letty like Seno-lita." Kshitij jumped up on Ishana's lap and hold her cheeks
Ishana chuckle and pinch his nose as he huff and move back. Ishana didn't react on it, though she understood everyone is quite surprise but didn't said anything cause of Akshu
"Ok, wait. Go away and fight!" Krish stopped Eric, who roll his eyes at him
"Sure, Uncle." He mock and earn another slap on his head from Krish as Akshu laugh on that
"Uncle. Hahahahaa!!!!" She laugh pointing at Krish as Eric too laugh but this time Krish frown at the two weirdos and walk aside
Vijendra too stood up. "I'm going to rest a little. After two hours Sahay's and others will come for dinner and dress fittings right?" Others nods as he left with Sanjay
"Why you smiling like this??" Sanjay frown at Vijendra
"I saw my family, my granddaughter happy after a long long time. It felt good seeing her happy." Vijendra smile as Sanjay chuckle
"Why you said them to come here." Ishana turn at Raj "They all can come to my showroom or the VIP side in DRISHAN."
"Did you forget what happened with Eric?" Suraj said
Ishana roll her eyes. "So? Are you all planning to held the marriage in bikaner Mansion's basement??" Ishana question sarcastically
"Don't use sarcasm with me, Young Lady??" Raj pinch her nose as Ishana huff a breath
"I don't want any troubles till we reach Bikaner. Understood?? I don't want any troubles." Ishana frown at him
"Why you're telling me, what I did?" Ishana muttered frowning at Raj
"Cause you're such an innocent and well-behaved kid." Raj sassed. Everyone laugh on it as Ishana pout
Kshitij grin too as Ishana frown at him. "What you understood? Why you're smiling?"
He grinned and ran towards Meera when Ishana tried to catch him. Meera chuckle on that and pick him up in her arms
Raj left the terrace as everyone too left one after another. Kshitij too left with Meera, except Ishana and the boys.
"Ayee!" Ishana startled when out of the blue, Krish took her in a bone-crushing hug.
"What going in your little head?" He mumbled as Ishana wriggle to come out of the hug
"Nothing. And leave me. You're choking me." She said but next second groan when Yug hugged her from her back
"Ahhhaa!!! What with you both? Two V/S one." She shriek and huff lastly
"Nothing. I just want to enjoy these two weeks." She said after a minute of silence
"That day when I fainted in DA's place. After that he told me to not get so indulge in work and give some time to the family too." She mumbled and this time hugged Krish back
"I'm tired, Bhai. I'm tired of these nightmares. I know, you all hide it from me and didn't told me." She sniffed
Three of them stumbled back as Yug and Krish groan when Eric and Kunal joined them too.
"What? We also want to join." Eric huff as Ishana smile softly
"I want to be free for once, DA. I want to be the old Ishana for once, even if it means for these two weeks. I can't see Mom sad cause of me. I don't want to be the reason of their sufferings, pains, tho-ugh I am." Ishana's voice soften and broke in between
"Shhh....! It's okay." Krish hugged her tightly
"Stop this self-blaming and you aren't the reasons of anyone's sufferings." Yug said and hugged her tightly
"If you want that, we're there okay. But, don't forget what you promised US." Eric added after Yug
"I won't. I'll tell you all before doing anything. You know half of the part. I'll tell you everything later." She mumbled as four of them sighed and nods
"Why you didn't tell the truth about Ms. Sinha???" Ishana look at Krish, who sighed
"Not now, Ishu. I didn't tell her everything. And, I don't know what she'll say after that." Krish smile softly
"She won't do that, Bhai. She's very understanding and nothing like her brother." Yug spatt out softly
Ishana frown and craned her neck to look at him. He's frowning and had anger visible on his face. She didn't said anything.
"Oh hello. I'm still here, group hug without me." Akshu ran towards them and jump on Eric as they all stumbled and fall down on the long mattress as all of them groan making Akshu laugh
Ishana too burst in laugh when Krish get trapped between her and Kunal and he let out few good profanities
"Com'on get up. We'll enjoy today. Get up. Get up. Come Ishu." Akshu jerk everyone as the boys groan as she pull Ishana from them
"I'm going to sleep. Not now." Yug grumble at Akshu. "Shut up and come." Ishana pulled him up forcefully holding his shirt
"_"_"_"_"_"_"_"_"_"_"_"_"_"_"
"What enjoy??" I look at Akshu, she grinned at me
"Come, first." Akshu dragged Eric with her as I let go Ishu to Kunal
"Won't you come?" She look at me as I nods. "I need to make a call." She nods and turned to Yug, as Kunal already left
"Why you're so silent??" She pull Yug's cheek as he slapped her hand away and walk out of the terrace
"Hey, How dare you ignore me? Yugi, Wait!" She ran after her. "Why you're so tall. Ughh! Walk slow." I chuckle at her constant grumbling
I sighed and make a call. He received it in fifth ring. "Say."
"I need your special security for a day."
"For what? Your family??"
"Hmm." I hummed and walk near the border of the terrace as I saw Ishana jump on Yug's back as he scoff on it
"So. Papa said right. The Heir of Mahajan's coming back to their ancestral palace. Oh, is it the coming back of old prince?" I roll my eyes on the sarcasm dripping words of his
"How come I'm a prince? It's you, Your Majesty." I mocked. Though, I know Majesty refered for "The King"
"Call me, Kunwar Sa, if you want to please me." There comes the time of royalty
"Yeah sure. You royals are basking in the pool of golds. One of the Elites."
"Huhh! And you Mahajan's. Already controlling the first most pillar in between the Elites. The "Social" Elites."
"Everyone knows what you did with Oberoi's. You ruined them. Isn't it?!"
I smirk on that. "I don't praise myself with my own mouth, Kunwar Sa." He scowl at me
I sighed, this taunting games will keep going without any full stop or breaks
"Are you going to give me that or not?"
"Yeah, fine. Inform me beforehand and send the details of your arrivals and everything." He said
"I'll text you."
"Hm!" He hummed softly. "Okay!" I muttered and ended the call. It'll definitely make him annoyed
But he's not going to whin on that, I know. He's not at all a talkative person.
I walk downstairs in the garden and joined them. I sighed seeing the boys sulking looking at Akshu
"We'll play seven tiles." She grinned as I can see Yug and Kunal sulk, Eric huff but Ishana beamed like she got her favourite toy
It's after so long I saw this looks on her face. I smile softly on that.
"No!!" Yug and Kunal huff and look at me. "Don't, please." Eric too muttered
"Why not? Please, na Bhai." Ishana blink at me showing her puppy eyes. "Yes, please." Akshu too wrapped her arms around me
What the hell!
I sighed. "Let's play." Kunal groan loudly at my words and sulk. "But...." Akshu paused in her run and turned at me
"For an hour." I added. "Fine! Chalega mujhe." Ishana and Akshu chirped in unison
(Okay to me.)
"You don't love US. You just love them." Eric huff a breath and keep rambling.
"Obviously, I don't love you." I pass him a disgust look as he grinned and pounce on me but I move away.
"Bhai and Kunal Bhai in my team. Let's get started." Akshu said as Ishu make a face
"We'll be the first." Ishu said and took the ball from me.
"Argghh! Yug, duck. Idiot!" She shouted as I chuckle when I throw the ball and it hit yug, as he scowl at me
One of the shortcomings of being taller.
"Done! I'm done." Ishana shouted suddenly and grin at me as she jumped on Eric and laugh as Eric chuckle
Akshu groan at her defeat as she glare me but I chuckle and shrug. "Fine! Fine. We'll win this time."
"Huh! You wish." Yug scoff.
We played again and won making Akshu happy and Ishu to sulk. Where the freaking he'll, I'm stuck?!!
I knew it from the start, if they start playing once then they won't stop, and that's what happens these three were sulking and now I forgot the count, how many times we played
"Tsk! Poor Ric." I chuckle on him when I moved aside as the the ball miss the aim
"Hush!" He huff and as Yug took the ball
I stopped seeing a car entering the premises. Are we playing from last two hours???
I saw Arshi came out of the car as her eyes landed on me. We both smile looking at eachother
Suddenly her raised brows and she indicate something behind me. What? Wait...! No.
I turn alertly but it was too late. "Ahhhh!!" I hiss softly when the ball hit my arm suddenly
"Bhai....."
"Bhaiya, yaar!" Akshu and Kunal whinned. Shit!! Way to get zoned out at a wrong time. Ughh...!
I thinned my lips looking at Eric, who's grinning at my sight. "Tit for tat, Pal." He chuckle as Ishana and Yug laugh
"Done!" Ishana chirped and gesture me a 'L' with her thumb and index finger telling me "I'm a losser"
"We won four times so.... it's time to fulfill the wish." She grinned at me.
"Oh, yes. Please." Eric wrapped his arm around Ishu and show me his palm
"What wish? Nonsense." I roll my eyes and turned to leave.
"Ayee! Wait." I stopped when Ishana pull back my t-shirt collar. "You fraudster. Both the team agreed on the bet." She chided
"Leave my collar." In that she tightened her hold on me using her both hands which makes me chuckle
If I want, I can make her surrender. "Do you want beating?"
"First complete the bet." She huffed back and pulled my collar again
"What bet? You did cheating." Suddenly Akshu interrupt
"Huh?! Wait, what cheating??" Yug frown at her. What's happening???
I saw Dadu and Sanjay Dadu coming out and Sinha's and Vish with Paras watching the cartoon show my siblings and friend are throwing, with an amused smile
In a few seconds Yug and Akshu started fighting. I sensed Ishana's hold lossened on my collar as she look at me with her big honey brown eyes holding shock and surprise
She kept looking at them and me back and forth. "Stop! Stop!! Wait...." Kunal pull back Akshu and Eric hold Yug tightly
"I didn't mean to fight." Ishu muttered with a sigh as I scratch my jaw in irritation
What the hell, these two doing?? "Why you both are fighting??" Eric chided
"Didn't you heard what he said??" Akshu shouted as we all cringed
"Stop shouting like a banshee. I said correct, you don't know how to play." Yug shouted back
"I'll seriously make you bald today." Akshu grabbed his hairs as I heard few gasps behind me
"Ahh!!!" Yug shriek in pain. "Do you want a black eye on your wedding? Leave my hairs, this instant." He added further
"Inka ho jayee toh bata dena." Ishana huff and seat on the grass in Indian style placing her face in between her palm which supported on her lap
("Let me know when they're done.")
"Yug!!!"
"Akshu!!" I decided to interfere in between them.
"Stop it now. Akshu, leave him, NOW." I said emphasizing the last word. They just ignore me. What the--
"Hey, What you both doing??" I heard Ragini Aunty's voice as she marched towards US and they leave eachother the next moment only
Woah!! Maa ka khauf!!
(Mother's terror)
"What you both doing??" She question as they pointed at eachother.
"What you both doing??" Ragini Aunty whispered yelled and then only they noticed Sinha's with Vish and Paras and now, Sarika and Sahay's are here too
Just Wow!!
Ishana smack her own forehead and gave me a look. What I did??
"What about we play another round?" She said as I nods
"No. It's enough. Go inside and freshnup, I said this to everyone." Ragini Aunty added
"But... Aunty. I--"
"Ishana. Now." Ishu sighed on that and stood up
She huff at all of US and marched towards the small table in the garden and pick up the bottle.
"You all come inside. Hope you can ignore it." I heard Ragini Aunty saying that to others
"Why you're looking at me like that? I'm not at fault." I frown at my sister who roll her eyes and turned back to me
"Go inside Dadu, it's getting cold." Dadu nods and chuckle looking at Ishu's sulking face as he walk towards the mansion
"Come, Ishu!!" Sanjay Dadu call Ishu as she walk past me, but not forgot to bump at me as I stumbled back
I sighed and pick my phone from the table and stuffed in my pocket.
*PATTT*
"AHH!!"
"AHH, MUMMY!!" I look at front to see Yug and Akshu shriek in pain rubbing there back and Ishana marched inside the Mansion in jet speed
"Ishana. Stop there." Yug shouted and ran after her
Eric chuckle beside me. "This Brat!!" I muttered.
"They shouldn't have fight with eachother. It spoiled the atmosphere. Her anger is justified." I look beside me to see Arshi, as I raised my brow
Everyone else already went inside as she's walking beside me with Eric. "You think, she's upset cause of that?" Ric sounded amused
Obviously, She doesn't know my sister yet! If I need to compare my sister with any spirit animal, then it'll be a FOX.
She's a sly, nine-tailed fox. Each tail of her, has it's own twisted and mysterious ways.
"Or else what?" She frown at Eric
"Even after winning, she didn't win the bet." Ric chuckle on that as I shook my head
"What was bet, again?" She look at me and Ric, back and forth
"Whichever the team wins. Ric or I have to give our black VIP card to the winning team." I sighed, Arshi started laughing
"I don't understand, why you all brothers are so pathetic." She scoff next second.
"Excuse me!" Ric frown. "You have the card still didn't gave her and with that, Akshu and Yug fought." She scowl and walk inside
Ric and I shared a look as we both were dumbstruck. I mean, What the actual f--
-'-'-'-'-'-'-'-'-'-'-'-'-'-'-'-'-'-'-'
"What?" DI look at me with a frown.
"What? You're asking me, what. You're busy on your phone from the morning. In lunch also you didn't give attention to your surroundings." I said her as she chuckle at me
"Aww. So sorry my baby brother." She patted my cheeks as I snort at her
"Now what can I do if your Sweetheart is not giving you any attention." She said and chuckle later as I heard a feminine laugh just a second later
"Hahahaha!!" I just grunt in anger. "Shut up, Little shit!" I snapped
"You shut up, Duffer." She snap back at me
"Why you're laughing??" I feel irritated seeing her. "Cause, your face is funny." She huff out
"I'm just feeling so happy listening you got rejected. Hahahaha!!!" She said and fall on her bed while laughing
How I wish to beat her but she's not infront of me but in the video call.
'Like you will be able to beat her even if she was here.' My subconscious mind mock at me
Ughhh!!!! I feel irritated knowing it's the truth, if I dared to touch a strand of her hair, her Mamu (maternal uncle) and my father will kill me.
Even DI too loves her most. "Aishhh!! Show me a picture." She looks excited
"Of whom?" DI frown. "The one with whom you're busy in chatting. Even ignoring me too." She pout
DI let out a chuckle. "Who's my Jiju (Brother-in-law)." She grinned as I let out a growl
"Stop growling like an animal. You're useless brother, I have. You didn't even get me a Bhabhi (sister-in-law)." She scowl
"Shut up, Akruti." She roll her eyes at me. "Okay, fine. Tell me about the girl who has eyes and rejected him." She chuckle pointing at me
She's so lucky that she's not present here.
DI laugh shortly on it. "Well, who's she? What's her name???" She asked again
"Ishana." DI said as she went silent. "Ishana." She mumbled softly and nods
"What happened???" DI asked as she shook her head. "She has pretty name. Is she pretty too??"
"Far better than you. Infact calling you pretty is an insult to pretty peoples." I let out with a scoff as she pout on it
"Shut up, Rohan." DI smack my arm as I make a face at her. "I'll tell Mamu (Maternal uncle)." She shriek with a huff
"Sure. Go ahead." I scoff as she whin on it
"With whom, you both are fighting in the car??" I heard Dad's voice as he took he back seat. Yeah! We're seating in the car and waiting for him and Mom, we need to go MR Mansion and I'm getting impatient too
"Mamu. Look at this Idiot. He's calling me ugly witch." She let out the next moment Dad took his seat
My jaw dropped in shock. "What? When I call you that?" I let out as I can feel Dad's glare at my back, drilling holes in my skull
"Didn't you said I'm not pretty and a witch." She scoff. "Obviously you're not pretty and I didn't call you witch, though you are that." I emphasize the word 'witch' as she gritt her teeth and glare me
"Stop it both of you." DI sighed tiredly at our banters as I roll my eyes at her as she snort
"Aaku, how's your masters going??" Dad asked her
"Good, Mamu. And, my exams completed, day after tomorrow I'm going for the workshop." She grinned as dad chuckle
"Okay! All the best for that."
"Thank you. Okay, bye. And give my love to Mami and tell Akshu Di, I miss her also." She said in a breath and ended the call
"Did she ended the call, already??" Mom pout as I nods and started the car.
"Why suddenly Suraj Uncle changed the place. We should visit DRISHAN, right??" DI question
"It's not Suraj, it's Rishi, who changed it." Dad said. "He don't want any further problems after what happened with Eric." He sighed as I nods on it
"True. It's horrifying. It's good, Eric is fine." Mom sighed as I took left turn.
Mom stumbled side cause of it. "Careful Rohan." Dad warned as I just nod but DI chuckle
"Easy brother." She patted my shoulder. It's not. It's fucking not. It's freaking five days, I didn't saw her, meet her or talk with her.
I crossed the distance of 40 minutes in 25 minutes. I saw Paras's car entering the premises just before me. The big and huge black and golden gate closed behind US.
I saw her brother turned and look at Eric. I came out from the car. "Bhai!!!!"
"Bhaiya!!!" I heard Akshu and Kunal's whin. I saw Yuvi and his parents also entered
"What are they doing?" Vish frown. "They're playing.... seven tiles." Dad paused and said as we all chuckle
Suddenly the peaceful and playful atmosphere turned choatic as Akshu and Yug started verbal war it went upgraded with pulling hairs
"Ohh"
"My"
"Gawd!!" Paras, DI and Vish gasped out one after another as I just blink.
"What they're doing??" Mom shriek in shock as I saw Ishana seat on the grass in Indian style and relaxed, ignoring the chaos.
I turn side to see Sahay's and Sarika stood beside US too and Yuvi's Mom chuckle looking at the scene. Ragini Aunty came rushing towards them as she gave them an earful and scolded each one of them
After being done with them. Aunty walk towards US and said in an embarrassed tone, "You all come inside. Hope you can ignore it."
I chuckle on that as we all walk inside. "What was choas?" Meera Aunty frown before Aunty could say something, we all saw Ishana ran towards upstairs
"Stop there. Where you running to??" Yug shouted running behind her as she shriek and went inside her room and slammed the door on his face
"Hey! Open the door." Yug banged on the door in anger.
Nandhini Aunty had an expression clearly saying. 'She's done with them'. "She fight with Yug." It's Meera Aunty, more than statement it was an question
"No. It's Yug and Akshu, who fought." Ragini Aunty said as all of US chuckle.
"Leave them. Come Ishu already make all the arrangements at outhouse. Let Rathore's come, till then please seat down." Meera Aunty said as I saw Kshitij stepping down the stairs as he beamed at my sight as I chuckle
"Hey!!" I pick him up in my arms as he grinned and smiled at Meera Aunty. I don't know why, but my eyes get stuck on Meera Aunty's face, she has a weird look on her face
"What happened, Aunty?" I look around them again at her. She chuckle and shook her head
+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+
"Oye! You boys are not allowed in this side." Ishika push back Yuvi, who glare at her and sulk
"Please na, yaar! I just want to see the dresses on her." Yuvi pout. "No. You can't." Vish denied on it
"Ishu. Is it you, who said them?" He turned at Ishana. "No! Don't bring me on this nonsense." She huff and roll her eyes at all the girls
"Something happened between you both ?" Jyothika look at Ishana and Abhi
"No. Nothing happened." Ishana said as Abhi sighed and seat near her
"Abhi, Don't provoke me, please." Ishana muttered and sighed. Her eyes landed on Kshitij who's busy with Rohan, laughing and playing in his phone
"What's there to enjoy so much? And, why that Gadhero (Donkey) is laughing so much?" Ishana muttered and her eyes narrowed down at them
Rohan look up sensing her gaze on him. The moment he look up Ishana hide behind the novel, she's holding.
Rohan chuckle seeing her behaviour. The book is still on the third page from the last one hour
"Champ! Your VB ijh (is) 'J'." Rohan slowly mutter
"J??" Kshitij look at him with a confused face
"Um... J, means She's sad you're not talking with her." Rohan stated as Kshitij make a 'O' face
Kshitij jump down and walk towards Ishana. "VB!!" Ishana roll her eyes, still looking at the book
"VB!!" Kshitij pull her Palazzo softly. Ishana sigh and look at him. Kshitij smiled at her brightly and settled himself properly on her lap.
"Why came here? Weren't you busy??" Ishana question him as the boy sighed and rested his head on her chest
"I boel (bore)." Ishana snort softly at her Son. Yeah, he's busy in asking what is day after tomorrow or with that Gadhero (Donkey)
"Yeah! I saw." She mumbled but sighed seeing Kshitij cuddling in her arms
He knows very well, how to act cute.
She forgot her grumpy self and gets busy with Kshitij, giggling and talking with him as the boy kept her busy
Rohan sighed softly and lean back on the sofa as he look at Ishana and Kshitij with a soft smile on his face
Suddenly, Ishana disappear from his sight. The beautiful view blocked from his eye sight
He look up tilting his head a little as his frown changed into pissed off look. He make a face seeing Yug, who deliberately stood in between with a casual look on his face
God, how much he wants to beat him. Rohan huff on that when Yug glare him, he too didn't look away
"Rohan, did you check your outfits?" Arshi tapped her brother's shoulder
Rohan nods softly on it, still looking at Yug, who's still standing like a wall between Ishana and him.
"Kshitij, let's go, we'll have tasty halwa." Ishika shoved Yug away and reached Kshitij, after she saw the silent war between both Rohan and Yug to which Ishana is oblivious
Kshitij look at Ishana as she gave a nods and he happily jumped on Ishika making Ishana and her chuckle
"Ishana?" She look up hearing Yuvi's father's call.
"Yeah!" She gave him her attention. "Are you interested in law??"
"Sorry?" She gets confused with a such a sudden question
"Are you serious??" Yuvi's mother, gave him a look. "Please, can you not bring your court room here." Ashutosh grumble.
"I saw you day before yesterday at supreme court with Yug." Ishana gulp a lump as she can sense her father's hard gaze on her
Even Yug too choke on air. She look at Yug as they both talk with their eyes. "Crap! How he saw US?" Yug think looking at her
"How I know?? " She said looking at him.
"I went to meet him. He was there for a case, I guess." She look back at Yuvi's father
"Ohh!" Yuvi's father smiled as she nods on it.
"After you kids done with outfit trials. Come back to the Living room." Meera said as they all nods on it
One after another, every elder couples left. "Hey!" Yug snapped on Kunal, who kicked him suddenly
"Daebak, hyung!" Kunal grin as all of them frown at the duo
(Daebak is an Korean word means "that's awesome" and hyung means "brother".)
"Man, it's a tough one but I love this language." Kunal grin ear-to-ear.
"You brat !" Yug gritt out as Akshu and Kunal grinned, "I didn't understand what you said, but it's funny." Eric said which makes everyone laugh
"It's Korean isn't it. I know bits of it. Watching all those k-dramas." Vish laugh saying that as Akshu grinned
"Why you kicked me? And, who teached you that?" Yug snap
"Me!" Akshu chirped and laugh seeing Yug's sulking face
"Are you all done with dress trials?" Ishana asked but her sister and brothers are busy in their chit-chat about Korean language with Vish and Sary
"These three gone dead or what?" Arshi blinked
"They for sure!" Yuvi chuckle. "You all go, I'm coming." Krish said and walk towards the group
"Yeogiyo," he shouted as five of them look at her, all startled.
(Hey)
"Dadeul gutadaghaeseo geunsimhago issni?" He shouted as Akshu gulp. Yug reach near her ear and whispered "What's this means?"
"He's going mad. It means, 'Are you all itching for beating?'. Let's go, or else, he'll have our head in dinner." She ended softly as rest four of them nods and walk out of the Outhouse as fast as they can
"Korean class ended?" Arshi mocked five of them as they huff making rest of them giggle softly
After few hours.....
Inside the Mansion; All elders are seating in the living room. "Aish!! Only a week left, for Akshu and Yuvi's wedding."
Suraj sigh on that, as Alex patted his back. "It's okay, it's happens. I also faced that." Vish's father said seeing Suraj's dull face
"Your daughter will be happy in my house too." Yuvi's father reassured as all let out a smile
"Did you thought anything about your daughter??" Pratap asked out of nowhere
Raj look up sensing several gaze on him. "You asked me??" He pointed at himself
Pratap nods on that. He shrug coolly. "What about my daughter??"
"Marriage? Life-partner? Something like that.."
Raj gave him a cold look. "I hate nosy peoples." Suraj and Alex chuckle, taking a sip from their coffee and others sighed
Pratap open his mouth to say something but Raj cut off "And... It's my daughter. Let her and me think, what can we do with it."
"Do you think, it'll be easy for her. What about... the boy. What answers you'll give to his questions, later. It's not so easy, Rishi." Raj didn't said anything but he choose to stay silent on it
"I'm glad. You thought about my son, Uncle Kings." Pratap stratled at the voice. Raj chuckle softly seeing his expression
Ishana walk inside rolling her eyes seeing Pratap's face. Rest youngesters too entered inside silently
"Ishana, do you have someone you like?" At Pratap's sudden question, Ishana frown at him. Rohan clenched his jaw at Pratap
She gulp first and then smile softly at Pratap, who knows she's going to say something weird and out of the box. "It's not that, I don't like you, Uncle Kings. But the age gap between US is too much."
All snort on that, Rohan chuckle loudly as he got a hit from Arshi. "What are you saying, you brat!" Ragini slap her back as she scowl in return
"Jokes apart. Let's be serious." Pratap cut off as his voice turning to serious." All went silent on it
"You said Krish and Eric, to not participate in the auction. You make Akshu to backout from the auction, at last moment. You didn't went but sent Tia there, and backout again, letting him win the Auction. Why?" The living room went silent on it. All eyes turned at Ishana and Pratap
"Don't think, you're the smart one here. Your Uncles, father and I, did business and that'swhy we're here." Ishana walk towards the small table where Vijendra and Sanjay were seating and playing Chess few minutes ago, but now winding up the game after Sanjay win against Vijendra
"And, what you'll do even if you win that auction that day. MIG doesn't even work on Residency or estates." Akshu snapped
Raj sighed on her behaviour. She seat infront of Sanjay and beside Vijendra. "I'll play, behalf of Oldie."
"And... What if MIG didn't work on Residential projects. Now, they'll do." Ishana smile sweetly at Akshu
"I already won." Sanjay frown. "So what? I want to play." She smiled at him as Sanjay sighed and started to place the pawn and bishops at there places
Pratap looks at her with narrowed gaze after he being ignored. "Keep going Uncle Kings. You have all my ears." Pratap sighed and he started again
"What's your plans? You remember, there's an upcoming wedding. That too, your own sister's." He ended it with a long pause and waited for Ishana to say something
Ishana's eyes stopped at Akshu, who's already looking at her curiously. Akshu raised her brows, seeing Ishana looking at her with soft eyes. Ishana look away as her eyes teared up suddenly
Krish scratch his jaw as he shared a look with his sister. "Plans? Umm... I didn't make any yet? I've to start making one." Ishana said after compousing herself
She saw Sanjay make his first move with his white black soldier. She let her black soldier move forward.
"Ishana, Are you understanding the situation?? He won the auction, it's like a another gemstone in his crown and Rishabh is also a Kun..."
"One, Don't take his name here." Ishana cut off Pratap's words. Her words are cold, firm still so calm at this point
"Two, I'm understanding your problem, Pratap Uncle. I'm understanding the dilemma of Rana Sa of DevGarh." Pratap look up at her eyes. Pratap noticed, she's not kidding anymore. She didn't called him 'Uncle Kings'. She called him with his name
"As a king and as a father too. I already gave you my words." She paused and look at Abhi for a moment and again at Pratap
"I won't let any harm come near your Son and Kunwar Sa of DevGarh. Abhishek will be out of it and You have my words." She let his attention fall on the chess board to see Sanjay already took down two of her soldiers
"You..." She whin. "Chess is a war too. Don't let your attention to stir." Sanjay mused, making her huff, Yug too walk and seat beside Sanjay, he's excited to see the match
Abhishek frown at Ishana's comment. "Excuse me?! What harm? From where I came in this conversation?? Do you think, I need you to protect myself??" Abhi got really offended at her words
"Shut up!!" Both Pratap and Ishana snap at him in unison. Others were amused at them but didn't dared to laugh, seeing the tensed up atmosphere
"Let me focus. Stop shouting near my eardrums." Ishana added as she let out her black rook to come forward, as she take down his knight
"Yes!!" She smile at Sanjay and hi-fi with Vijendra.
Abhi's jaw dropped, seeing her behaviour. Krish decided to interfere as his sister is busy in playing chess, he look at Pratap.
"You won't face any problem from RaiGarh. He won't dared to. All he wants... is me to accept my defeat and surrender to him...." He trailled off
"And, that's not happening. Not in this lifetime of his." Eric scoff adding further
"This lifetime?? He needs thousands lifetimes for that." Kunal scoff, rolling his eyes
"How you know, what he'll do?? He didn't come to say you this." Alex frown at his son and his gang
Yug roll his eyes at Alex and scoff. "No-one knows Rishabh Sherawat, better than Ishana Raj." He pointed at Ishana, with his hand
"Tsk!" Alex tsked on that. "Really, then tell me, why you told Akshu to backout from the auction?" He question
"Even if she don't. She won't able to win against him." Akshu glare Ishana, for saying that.
"There go your rook." Ishana's eyes widen. "Wait, a minute." She muttered to Sanjay.
"Two questions, I've for you." She look at Akshu "One, How much amount you estimated?"
"Two, We're you sure? It's enough? Did you ever get to know, how much that Jackass is going to use?" Ishana went silent and started playing again as Akshu sighed
"No! The security was tight. But-- it's not Ri... I mean, he's not the one, who's arranging the funds. And, I was going to use hardly upto 45 crore." Akshu shrug
"But you're the one. Who dragged the amount ten times higher, in once." Akshu thinned her lips at her
"He estimated the amount upto 80 crores." Yuvi's father choked in air as Ishana whin, as one by one all her soldiers been taken off
"It's his dream project, Akshu. He'll give his all efforts into it. One of the biggest project he wants to make and showcase infront of the world." Krish stated as he sighed and leaned back on the couch and eased his muscles
"If I wanted, I could make him go more higher. But......" Ishana shrug as she rubbed her forehead seeing the chess board where all her pawns are out except one rook, one bishop, the queen and one knight
"Check." Sanjay muttered moving his rook infront of Ishana's Queen
"Accept it. There's no move left." Yug huff a breath. "That's how you play?" Ishana hiss when Vijendra hit her head softly
"Aish....!! Ughh!" Ishana scratch her head as Sanjay chuckle. "It's okay. It happens." Sanjay patted her shoulder
"Hey! Complete that word.... What, but...?" Suraj frown
"But--" Ishana turned at Suraj and saw everyone's looking at her only.
"That, I don't play same move, more than once." She smiled cheekily at Suraj. Krish let out a laugh as he rest his head on Ragini's shoulder and sighed, when she patted his head
"Sanjay Dadu, watch out and save your King."
"Switch on the TV." Krish and Ishana let out in unison as Yug frown and look at the chess board
"What? Why, TV?" Suraj question. "Ohh, yes! I forgot about that." Kunal turn on the TV
"Breaking news of today's : Kalyani Groups is taking their shares back Sherawat Group of Companies. Yes! The same Kalyani Groups who collaborated with SGOC.
They claimed, that SGOC, did fraud with them and gave them low rated raw material for their project. Even they stated, that they won't help the blamed company in their big project. And they too, issues an official apology to MIG, and request the company to accept it." The reporter said
Everyone blinked at the TV. "Its--- You did that?" Pratap blinked at Ishana as she shrug
"Dadu." Sanjay look at her. "Checkmate." She said and wink at him
Sanjay look at Ishana then at the chessboard. She captured him from four side. The last one is her Queen from front, captive his King
"Opps. My Queen makes your King weak." She said with pity and then grinned
"You only said it's a war. I played it like a war." She stood up
"Are you going to accept the apology?" Raj look at his daughter. "What you think?" She smiled at her father
Raj chuckle. "I'm proud of you." He shows her a thumbs up. Ishana grinned on that
"You both father-daughter is crazy." Pratap scowl.
"Uncle Kings. Have this, it'll make your nerves calm and you'll have a good sleep." She passed a glass of hot milk as Pratap gave her a stink eye
"Stop teasing, Uncle." Eric pull her back. "There's a change in the plan." That gathers everyone's attention
"What?" Yuvi frown. "We'll leave not after two days but tomorrow for Bikaner." Krish said
"Go home and sleep early. See you tomorrow here." Krish smiled at everyone's shocked face accept his family including Bedi's and Mc'Mills'
"Hey! What does t--"
"Good night, all of you." Ishana waved at elders as she chuckle at Kshitij who came running to her
"Are you full? Are you happy, huh?? You little monster." Ishana walk away with him in her arms
Rohan sighed, cause of all this and elders he didn't get to spend some time with her and tonight, she deliberately stick to her brothers and top of this Tansen
This Cop, who's already looking at him... no still, glaring him.
He's annoying, man!
