Part 10

" Umm who is this ? Leave me ! "Ishan struggled to get the other man's grip off him .

Ishan nudged the other guy's stomach with his elbows leaving the other male in groaning in pain .

Hearing the familiar voice . Ishan shrieked " Mayank !? Tum yaha ? And tumhara dimag kharab ho gaya hai kya !'' Ishan placed his palm on his chest , his heart racing fastly.

"Shit yr is this how you welcome your friend?" Mayank cried out .

" Aise chor ki tarah aaoge to yahi karunga na Mai chomu " ishan gruffed and helped his groaning friend to stand up .

" But leave it aside, what are you doing here ? "Ishan asked , surprised by his friend's sudden presence.

" Duh obviously for your wedding! Do you really think I would miss my stupid friend's wedding?"

He said and jumped onto the soft mattress , observing the room's interior.

" Tum hoge stupid but chalo acha hai tum aa gye tumhare bina itna bore ho raha tha " ishan was gay to see him here . He doesn't know what he would do without him . During his whole engagement ceremony he can't tell how many times he missed him .

" Well kaafi kharcha Kiya hai Tumhare sasur ji ne "

Mayank teased him as his eyes motioned to the expensive things in there .

Ishan's cheeks flushed and he scoffed to hide it .

" Please and Mera choro tum apna batao tumhe to bahut iMpoRTaNt kaam tha to tum yaha kaise "

Ishan shrugged his arms and snatched Prithvi away from Mayank's grip as he was playing with its nose , almost plucking it out .

"I'll tell you later and wow you still have this Annabelle doll like plushie with you ! " Mayank laughed at prithvi while Ishan's eyes darkened at the insult of his dear prithvi .

" Annabelle hoge tum idiot! " smacking Mayank on the back of his head .

Ishan put prithvi safely in the cupboard and sat plopped beside Mayank onto the bed engaging in talks.

" Wait so you're telling me you literally played that song . Wow I must say Shubman is quite cool huh" .

Mayank chortled after hearing the earlier fiasco told by Ishan .

" Cool nahi fool hai wo but leave it. Let's watch a movie . It's been such a long time since we had slept together, "Ishan suggested, reminiscing about the old times.

However Mayank smirked at the last words . Winking in Ishan's direction he cheekily said ,

"Slept together ehh "

Dimag kharab ho gaya iska .

Shooting a dirty look at Mayank after understanding what he meant, he picked the remote and surfed through the channels to find a good movie .

"Yrr kya dekhe? " Ishan asked , his lips forming an automatic pout as he tried to think what movie they should watch . Mayank too was occupied by this .

" Mere yaar ki shaadi hai ! "

" Dil wale dulhaniya le jayenge! "

Mayank and Ishan respectively yelled together as Mayank's lips again formed a smirk at Ishan's movie .

" nah I would prefer Gill wale dulhaniya le jayenge over Ddlg anyday" Mayank nudged ishan as he shot a glare at him

" Shut up " ishan chided knowing very well Mayank is going to eat his brain with this until he gets bored of it .

Isse accha to Mai Sautan bani Dayan dekh lu .

______________________________________

Mayank was strolling through the garden, enjoying the lush greenery and cold breeze of the early morning.

His heart swelled up with the mesmerizing nature. The plants swayed jocundly as the gardener watered them .

The whole atmosphere was just perfect until his eyes fell on the man getting down from a black taxi with luggages.

There it was Abhishek sharma.

It's not like he hated him , in fact he wanted to become his friend but the latter always ignored him like a plague and roamed behind Ishan.

Abhishek was helping a little stray cat which was stuck in the manhole , when he first saw him leaving a long lasting impression on Mayank .

However His attitude towards Mayank slowly made him dislike him . To the point he gets irritated with him just breathing.

He turned around, walking away from Abhishek before he could see him .

He was on his way to Ishan's room when he bumped into Mrs Kishan and Mrs Gill who were just coming back from the temple .

" Arey ! Mayank ? " Mrs Kishan exclaimed.

" aunty namaste " he joined his hands together and greeted both Mrs Gill and Mrs Kishan.

"You're here ? I thought you weren't coming..."

She continued" anyways at least you come , Ishan was missing you badly yesterday "

" Ha wo -" Mayank's speech was interrupted by a voice from behind .

" Aunty namaste ! " Abhishek greeted them and instead of just joining his hands he bent down to touch their feets and get their blessings.

Mayank scoffed at Abhishek thinking he is doing it to get on Mrs Kishan's good books.

Mrs Kishan patted Abhishek's head while Mrs Gill was impressed by these youngsters manners . Nowadays lads out there outright ignore elders let alone bend down to touch their feets .

"khush raho beta " Mrs Gill blessed him while Mayank internally rolled his eyes .

" Abhishek bacche ap? " Mrs kishan got another surprise seeing Abhishek after years .

Abhishek used to come to their house a lot of times when Ishaan was in college.

And during the whole time she got fond of Abhishek.

"Good now that both of you are here. I won't be worried about him much and yes you both have to help me okay! " Mrs kishan proclaimed gazing at the two lads who agreed cheekily.

Mrs Gill coughed gaining attention from Mrs

Kishan said " by the way you didn't introduce them to me " Mrs Kishan giggled and pointed her index finger at Abhishek first as Mayank face dropped who was anticipating to be introduced first .

" He is Abhishek. Ishan's friend and this is Mayank , Ishan's best friend" Mayank's face lit up at the difference between his and Abhishek's intro as he stuck out his tongue to the other male and obviously in his mind only .

Mrs Gill flashed a smile at them and engaged them in casual talk .

"Accha baatein to rahegi. Firstly you both go and get freshen up you guys must be tired after traveling " Mrs kishan said As Mayank immediately fled away (not literally ☠️) towards Ishan's room and barged inside them with raging eyes .

"ishan! You idiot! Chomu gadhey ! Pagal " Mayank cursed, throwing away the duvet Ishan was wrapped in .

While Ishan almost fell from the bed with the way Mayank screamed in his ears .

Yawning, Ishan blinked his eyes at Mayank not understanding anything as his mind was still not awake.

Mayank's nose flared up . His eyes burning with anguish, He threw the cushion on Ishan's face.

" Why did you do that !?" Mayank screamed, still throwing whatever he was seeing towards Ishan's.

Out of defense Ishan placed his arms in front of face protecting himself, still confused about everything.

Isko subah subah konsi maata chaadh gayi hai ?

" What did I do? "

" Huh ! Look at you ! The audacity to ask this . Why did you invite that Shake? "

" Shake ? Ye kon hai ? "

"Abhishek aur kon ! Gadhey "

" acha wo . Yaar he is my friend, how can I not invite him more- " Ishan was interrupted by Mayank throwing cousin in his face again .

Ishan who was just patiently bearing Mayank's torture on him too stood up and threw the pillow in Mayank and well let's just say it hit quite hardly on him .

And that how the whole room was messed up with everything displaced everywhere.

" Ye Hume to theek nahi karna padega ? " Ishan asked, looking at the mess . Mayank looked at the mess and then towards Ishan .

" I hope not "

" It's all because of you pig ! Why do you start it ?,'' Ishan glared at the other guy, putting his hands on his waist .

" Huh me ? Are you kidding me!? " Mayank emphasizes gaping his mouth apart .

" Aur nahi to ky-aaa " ishan words were swallowed by his scream when his foot slipped by the cushion on the floor .

Ishan's hands flew towards looking for support and caught Mayank's t-shirt making him fall with him too .

Meanwhile , Shubman was going towards his own room which was just in front of Ishan and Abhishek was on his way to Ishan's room when they both heard the scream coming from Ishan's room .

Shubman alerted at the high pitched voice of Ishan's and opened Ishan's door which was already opened .

Abhishek, too, panicked and got inside the room behind Shubman praying nothing bad happened to him .

Shubman stilled in his place seeing the scene unfolded in front of him , his eyes narrowing as his hands clenched tightly. While Abhishek too stood there dumbfounded .

There it was Ishan and Mayank lying on the floor in a very questioning position.

Mayank was hovering above Ishan . Their faces were almost touching and Ishan's eyes were shut close giving off a false impression to the spectators.

"What the hell is happening here ? "

Author's note ;

Okay I know it's a very short chapter and doesn't even have any shubish content too but I just wanted to show Ishan's life instead of just focusing on Ishman and a bit of abhiyank too hehe.

And is that jealousy that I smelled Mr Gill ? 😏

Mr Gill :🙄 Shut up and complete your literature thesis instead of smelling.
