OS - | Smile Please | - Oberoi Family(for Gauri)

Shivaay looked at his brother, then at his watch. What was On doing around the pool at this hour? He seemed stressed about something.

"Om!?" He walked up to him. "Everything okay?" 

Om looked up at his brother, "Yeah" he smiled. 

Shivaay sighed and sat down by the pool, "Bata kya hai?"
Om stared at him dumbfounded.

"Tu apne aap se shaayad chupa le, mujh se nahi chupaa sakta, now tell me, kya hai?"

"Gauri!" Omkara said as he sat beside his brother.

"What happen? Is she okay? You both fought or something?" Shivaay asked concerned.

"Ever since that incident, chup chaap si rehti hai. Hasti hai toh bhi kitni mushkil se . she isn't herself Shivaay. I blame myself for it!" Om spoke looking away at the night sky.

"Give her time. " Shivaay suggested, in all seriousness. Even he had noted Gauri's changed behavior, and had finally reached the decision of giving her time to rebound to her original self

"Nahi Shivaay. Waqt ki nahi, Taaqat ki zaroorat hai!" Omkara spoke thoughtfully.

"Usse yeh ehsaas dilana hai ki uski taaqat abhi uss ki hai. Yeah ehsaas dilana hai ki ek haadsa zindagi nahi badal sakta . Ek kharoch usse apne aap se nahi cheen sakti. She has to be the Gauri she used to be!" Omkara's voice was heavy with emotion.
Shivaay immediately hugged his brother. "She will be fine, Om, She will be fine!" 

Om hugged his brother back.

"Nihayat-ly Besharam Bhai ho...chote bhai ke bina Obro moment ho raha hai!" Came Rudra's whining voice.

"What!? Niya...what?" Shivaay looked up confused.

"Nihaayti!" Om corrected

"Matlab?" Shivaay asked confused.

"Very!" I'm replied smiling and pulling Rudra down beside him. "Aa jaa humaari DrameBaaz. You know what Shivaay , Rudar humaari behen honi chaaiye thi!" 

Shivaay chuckled.
"Haaye Haaye, ek toh kar Diya humein paaray,Ab has rahe hain Om and Shivaay!"

"Why Why Why!" Shivaay and Om sang in unison as a reaction to Rudra's rhyme. Omkaar laughed and gave a high-five to Shivaay.
"Has lo Has lo...paapa ban jaaoge toh hasne ki fursat bhi nahi milegi!"

Omkara hit Rudra's head. What Logic!?

As the brothers laughed. Gauri smiled looking at them and silently walked back. She had come to check where Om was, finding him with his brothers she quietly returned.
