27. welcome back home

"Good Morning bhabhi." Chavi's eyes blinked, trying to adjust to the dim lights of the room. She looked at the caller and frowned to see it was Miheer.

It is freaking four in the morning for God's sake.

"What do you want? Why are you calling me now at four in morning?" She asked, sitting on her bed, in a rude tone.

"I'm..so sorry bhabhi. For what happened, I thought it will be a small prank and-"

"A small prank? You aren't a five year old to think of it as a small prank Miheer. You are a freaking grown up who have intelligent and brain to think.

You seriously thought that making fights between couple was funny? But actually you did a good thing. At least I got to know about Siddhant's this side." She said to Miheer, anger evident in her voice.

After deciphering over it for a moment, she came on the conclusion that Miheer wasn't so much at fault. It was Siddhant. If only he trusted her, this would have ended differently, in laughs and smiles.

Not in tears and guilt.

"I am sorry bhabhi. I promise on my life I would never do something like this again. Please forgive me this time. I swear I don't had this intention." Now Chavi could hear Miheer cry over the phone too.

By the voices coming from behind him, she could tell he wasn't home yet. Maybe at airport?

"It's okay Miheer. I forgive you. Just please don't repeat what you did on us or anyone else. I beg you." She sighed and replied.

"Nah bhabhi. Pakka. Never ever again." He said sniffling like a baby.

And she smiled a little at her 'brother'.

"Go home now. Bye." She said and when she heard a small 'okay' she hung up the call.

She realised it didn't take much to ruin relations and mental peace. Just a small one minute video and boom! There lives and understanding, everything changed.

"Stop It Chavi. No overthinking. It's just four, three more hours until alarm rings. Go to sleep." She gave herself a small pep talk and went back to sleep.

~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~

Siddhant Sharma, the one who is pro at ignoring girls who approach him with some intentions and ignoring boys who wants only assets from him. The same Sid Sharma who have an image of being a stone in the work field.

He's the one who couldn't sleep tonight. And the reason was him hurting his wife.

He knew somewhere that it was his possessiveness taking over and that he wasn't thinking straight. But he still had to shout at her for something she didn't even do.

A bastard and a moron. That's what you are Siddhant.

He was constantly cursing himself in his mind.

Looking at the time, he saw it was five thirty. And sleep was long away from him. So he thought to take a walk around the locality.

As he made his way downstairs towards the main gate, he saw a shadow sliding in without much noise. He instantly got alert and approached the shadow from behind.

Without making any noise, he grabbed the shadow by the neck making the man scream the loudest he can.

"LEAVE ME WHAT THE HELL!" and Siddhant oddly knew this voice a bit too well.

So he quickly left the so called intruder and he turned around to look at the person who caught his neck. The intruder was about to snap at the person when he saw his Sid bhai.

"Bhai?" He whispered.

"Miheer." Siddhant glared at him.

"What happened! Who screamed and- ohh Miheer?" It was Mehul. Everyone had got down by now to see why someone screamed.

Now Miheer was scared thinking his Sid bhai must have told everyone about his stupidity. But he looked at Sid with confusion when one by one everyone came and hugged him. And said sweet nothings in his ears.

"Welcome back Miheer beta." Aisha said to him. But she didn't hug Miheer or pamper him like she normally would.

And in between this all, Siddhant had quitely made his way outside.
