It was the day when prathiksha was getting discharged from the hospital and also the matche day and Tanvi was getting ready to go and pick prathiksha from hospital
The boys wanted to see prathiksha before they head for the match, but in order to give them a surprise tanvi told them that she will be discharged late and they won't be able to meet them before the match
Mahi : Boys shall we go to the stadium for practice, it's getting late I guess???
Rohit : Bhai are you sure that she won't get discharged any time sooner???
Mahi : Oh God ro you are asking me this for the uptenth time, and like always I only have one answer and it's a No a big fat No!!! So better stop asking this question
Rohit : OK
They left for the stadium and there coach was already present
Rahul Dravid : So boy's as you know some unfortunate things had happened last night but we can't stop ourselves from playing the match, but there is a small change in the playing squad, As Rahul has given his blood yesterday we want him to take rest today so instead of him ishan will play in his place
Ishan : Sir are you sure, because I feel that there are much better people than me who deserves a chance
Mahi : And you also deserve a chance ishu, just like how we believe in you you should also believe in yourself. And we had a meeting with prathiksha to discuss about you all and She told us that if given a chance you will definitely prove yourself, I can't see the confidence that she held in her eyes in your own eyes ishu , don't think much just go with the flow
Rahul Dravid : OK now we will take a leave, you guys carry on with your practice
Ishan : This is big I mean I won't be able to do it
Rahul : Just like prathiksha I also believe you ishu, as mahi bhai said just go with the flow
Soon it was time for the match and ict was about to leave to the stadium at that time they saw anushak and asked her
Virat : Nuski did prathiksha come back from the hospital???
Anushka : Yes she did and now she is resting in the apartment, and had asked me to convey her all the best to you guys especially to you ishu
Jaddu : So that means she won't be coming to watch the match
Anushka : That's so crazy for you to ask like that jaddu, if you just forgot then FYKI her hand is fractured dude and she needs rest
Jaddu : Oh sorry I just forgot about it
Anushka : Any ways play well guys and you all can meet her once the game is over
Anushka left from there
Ashwin : As much as I feel bad about her not being able to come, I also feel guilty about the fact that it's somewhere because of us she is in this condition
Rahul : But my gut feeling Say's that she will definitely come
Soon the match started England won the toss and chose to bat, from the beginning the bowlers were on fire not letting the baters score a decent amount of run, after the continues attack from the bowlers side England got all out with the total of 165
Now it was the turn of India to bat, rohit and shubmans partnership managed to give the team a good start, but after sometimes rohit got out scoring a half century, ishan joined the crease at a very crucial moment all the eyes were on him and surya ishan was nervous because he never expected this coming.
But remembering his mahi bhai's words and to prove prathikshas confidence right he decided to keep his nervousness aside and go with the flow, and that's it he gave one of the best performance of his career and Surya finished the game in full style making the team win
The boys were on the ground looking towards the gallery to see if they can get a glance of prathiksha, but to there disappointment they couldn't but when they turned further to a side there sad face had a bright smile when they saw prathiksha along with tanvi and there wife's, they ran towards them
Rohit : You came baccha , you watched the entire match really???, he was so excited not being able to form words
Prathiksha : Yes bhai how can I miss your match, you guys were really on fire and ishan your performance was just mind blowing just the way I imagined, Surya bhaiya!!! What a finish means what a finish!!! Look I still have goosebumps, she said excitedly
Tanvi : Prati, you told that you want to stay till the match ends and wanted to meet them it's done know, Now let's go back shall we??? Because if mahi bhai or Rahul Sir saw us they will definitely scold all of us
Sakshi : Yes let's go back, because if mahi see us he won't spare anyone of us so boy's go change and we will meet you at the apartment
Rohit : OK, please be careful
Ritika : Sure
They left and only the boys were remaining in the ground
Rahul : You all did a great job guys and ishu you were just mind blowing like prathiksha said and Sky bhai I don't think you need a special applause because you know that you are a fabulous finisher
Ishan and Surya : Thanks bhai, thanks man
When they started moving towards the dressing room, Surya got lost in his thoughts
Suryas pov
I thought I was not included in the playing squad but see here I am appreciated for my perfect finishing, I got this chance only because of prathiksha. Yes mahi bhai told me that she recommended my name to them
because she was confident that I will play well.
I used to feel disappointed that people are not recognising my talent and I am not getting enough of chances but prathiksha became the reason for me to have hopes and believe in my self . She is such a gem now I understand why mahi bhai gautam and ro love her so much she is the best sister that a brother could ever ask for
With that thought he left to change
It was evening and everyone was gathered in the living room , the boys saw that the wife's and tanvi was ready to go somewhere
Ishan : Bhabhi's are you going somewhere???
Sakshi : Yes we have a party to attend, actually we really don't want to go leaving prathiksha alone but it's important so have to go ........
Anushka : And we have heard a ear full from mahi bhai and Rahul Sir for leaving prathiksha alone
Rohit : Why do they think that we can't take care of her
Ritika : Maybe yes, because you all can't take care of yourself so how will you all take care of her huh??
Surya : hey we might be careless about us but we are very careful about others
Devanshi : Umm are you sure Sky???
Tanvi : OK OK fine, don't start again I only have one thing to tell you all, please take care of her and make her eat food properly and ensure that she takes her medicines
Shubman : OK Tanvi mathaji
Tanvi : Shut up shub,!!!
They all left for the party and now the boy's are remaining in the living room
Rohit : Guys I will go check up on her and see if she needs any help with something
Ishan : Bhaiya you wait here I will go and see if she needs any help
Surya : Wait ishu I will also come with you
Virat : Let's do on thing let's go together any way we have nothing to do sitting here
Rohit : Come let's go
They all went towards prathikshas room and saw that she was talking to megha they were standing outside the door and she saw them and gestured them to come in
Prathiksha : Oh wow!!! entire Indian team, just to check up on me, Oh God I am so lucky!!!
Rohit : Prati I think you should better stay away from tanu, day by day you are becoming a drama queen
Prathiksha : I am sure that tanu must have warned you all to take care of me right???
Jaddu : No we ourselves decided to check up on you, you ended up in this condition because of us, so it's our responsibility to take care of you
Prathiksha : Oh God!!! Are you guys still having that guilt I have already told you all that it was no ones fault then why do you guys still feel guilty, she tried to take the bandage from the night stand and due to stretching her right hand started to pain. Aahh!!!
Virat : Kiddo are you alright??? Is it paining so much
Prathiksha : Umm nothing was trying to take the bandage but I guess my fractured hand won't let me do that, but it's fine I will try again Again her hand started to pain ouch aahh!!!
Yashaswi : if you keep on trying it will pain again, wait I will get it for you. He went towards the night stand and carefully took out the bandage here you go he said handing it over to her
Prathiksha : Thanks
Yashaswi : Oh sorry you probably need help in wearing it right??? Sorry it simply slipped out of my head, wait a minute I will do it for you!!!
Prathiksha : It's okay I will manage
Rohit : You clearly can't manage baccha just explain to him he will help you out
Prathiksha : Sorry I didn't ask anyone of you to sit down right, please take a seat
The ict spread out on different parts of the room making them self's comfortable ishan and Surya was sitting in the bed along with prathiksha
Ishan : I think you need to remove this cast on your hand first, then only you can wear the bandage right
Prathiksha : Yes
Surya : OK then we both will help you, Surya carefully removed the cast from her hand
Prathiksha : Ouch ouch!!!
Surya : Is it paining a lot
Prathiksha : No I am fine aahh!!!
Ishan : It's done, now first you have to apply the ointment right where is it???
Prathiksha : Their right inside the drawer
Ishan : Rahul bhai can you please pass it
Rahul open the drawer and took the ointment at that time his eyes caught something he slowly took it out and kept it inside his pocket and gave the ointment to ishan
Ishan : Show me your hand
Prathiksha : OK, she carefully showed her hand to him and he started applying the ointment but it was painful for her . Ouch!!!
Ishan : Sorry Sorry just a minute it's done
Once he applied the ointment Surya tide the bandage in her hand
Prathiksha : Thanks for helping me out
Surya : in front of what you have done this help is nothing so please don't thank for it
Prathiksha : You guys only came to check on me or is there anything you guys need to tell
Ashwin : Yes, We need to thank you whole heartdly prathiksha because of you we were able to play today and win, your trust and never ending confidence is the reason behind our win today For that we all are thankful to you
Surya : You believed me at the point when I was not ready to believe myself, you gave me the confidence to play you became the reason for the way I played today and made everyone proud, without you and your confidence I wouldn't have been able to do it
Ishan : Before giving me such a big chance you didn't think twice that itself shows your trust and confidence in me, thanks a lot for believing in me and also for making me understand the importance of believing in yourself, I couldn't have asked for something better than this
Shubman : We are really grateful for your selfless attitude, you know what no one has ever done anything like this for us
Rahul : The main reason that we don't like our managers was because they never trusted us they never tried to treat us like one among them, they always tried to demotivate us and sometimes made us feel useless with there words
Shreyas : The manager before you he literally turned out to be a naagin if we wouldn't have chased him away he would have.......
Prathiksha : Would have???
Virat : Nothing just forget it
Prathiksha : He would have breaked you all apart right ??? And the ict that I am seeing right now wouldn't have been the same right??? Tanvi and mahi bhai would have turned out to be the once who hate you guys so much right???
The ict was shocked hearing her words
Kuldeep : How!!! I mean how do you know this???
Yuzi : Because apart from all of us and our family no one knows about it, even Tanvi and mahi bhai......
Jinx : Then how come you???
What do you think how did prathiksha know the biggest secret of ict?? Will this incident bring the team and her close??
