Chapter 26: part 24

DEEWANGIWords: 13713

It was sunday and Ishu was sleeping in Alay's room but Alay was off to somewhere. Ishu woke up around 9 am when he didn't feel Alay's presence beside him.

He did his morning routine and went downstairs. He saw no one was there except his parents.

Nina- uth gaye janab.

Ishu- mom at least sunday k din toh taana mat mariye.

Sameer- kal meeting hai yaad haina?

Ishu- yes dad. Yaad hai and I am prepared for it. The files and presentation are ready.

Sameer- good. I am done, tum khalo ishu. Nina bachhe ko naashta do.

Ishu- mom Alay ne naashta kar liya?

Nina- nahi. Woh toh subah subah hi kahin chala gaya hai. I saw him leaving.

Ishu- apne pucha nahi?

Nina- I saw him from my room balcony.

Naashta karlo.

Ishu- I will wait for him. Baaki sabne kar liya?

Nina- samar or bhai ne aaj bedroom me kiya hai nashta. Vani ne hamare sath kiya hai. Or adi kal raat bahar gaya tha, ab tak aaya nahi hai.

Sameer- adi ka call aya tha Kabir ko. Usne kaha ki inauguration karna hai on Monday. Maybe he is busy with that.

Ishu- fir toh alay pakka unke sath hoga. Aap dono rest karne jaao, me khalunga.

( they both went and I called Alay)

Kahan ho? Ok

( usne kaha late hoga. Ab akele naashta karna padega. Mom ne yeh upma banaya hai and mujhe bilkul nahi khana.

I took the maggi packet and kept the pan and added water. I took some veggies. Suddenly, he wrapped his hands around my waist)

Shit... Baby you scared me.

Alay- ( I rubbed my nose on his neck and he held the kitchen counter)

Kya bana rahe ho aap?

Ishu- maggi, mom ne upma banaya hai. Joh mujhe nahi khana.

Alay- ( I rubbed his belly and he held my hand. He turned around and his back was pressed on the counter)

Ishu- Alay koi dekh lega. Don't.

Alay- bhuk lagi hai mujhe.

Ishu- ( the way he stared at me, I couldn't look at him anymore. So I kept my eyes on his neck.)

Kuch khaya kyu nahi? Mujhe laga itni subah bahar gaye ho toh naashta bhi bahar karoge.

( he came closer)

Alay- jab meri jaan gharpe bhuki hai toh unka Alay bahar kaise khayega.

Ishu- tumhe kaise pata mene nahi khaya?

Alay- Aisehi apko pyaar nahi karta. Apki yeh choti choti baatein hi mera dil jeet leti hai.

I brought your favorite sandwiches. Let's eat together.

Ishu- ( I hugged him)

You are the best.

Adi- isse bulane aaye the ya iske sath romance karne?

( ishu got startled and pushed Alay a bit)

Aramse ishu.

Ishu- Sorry Alay, I got nervous.

Alay- it's ok. Let's eat. Chachu aap baitho me plate leke aata hu. Baby, go sit with him.

Adi- champ coffee bana dega.

Alay- haan. Aap baitho me leke aata hu.

Adi- chal chote.

Ishu- kahan leke gaye the usse?

Adi- last minute improvement k liye uski help chahiye thi. Isliye subah bula liya usse and baadme mere apartment gaye the hum. Samaan pack kar diya hai jiski zarurat hai, shaam tak aa jayega yahan.

Ishu- kitne boxes hai?

Adi- around 3 huge boxes.

Alay- Chachu apki coffee. Ishu apke liye juice.

Let's start.

Adi- ( alay was serving him first and then took food for himself)

Ishu- Chachu, ap nahi khaoge?

Adi- I already had my breakfast. Isse leke gaya tha but isne parcel karwa liya. Kaha tum wait kar rahe honge.

( they both were having breakfast or shall I say Alay was making him eat. His focus was on ishu. He was making sure that ishu is well fed. Bilkul bhai pe gaya hai.

I saw sameer bhai looking at them from the corner. He smiled and went back.)

Coffee achhi bani hai. Thank you.

Ishu- thanks alay. You are the best. I am so full.

Alay- ( I kissed his head)

Aap yeh juice finish karlo. Mujhe baba se kaam hai.

Ishu- ok.

( he went and chachu was in deep thought)

Aap kya soch rahe ho?

Adi- Naashta karlo fir garden me baith te hai.

Ishu- ( he looked serious. I wrapped everything up and followed him to the garden)

Kya baat hai? Aap pareshaan lagre ho.

Adi- joh bhi puchu sach batana.

Are you ashamed to be seen close to Alay? Kyuki jis tarah tumne usse push kiya, honestly I didn't like that. That wasn't a light push.

Ishu- aap yeh kya bol rahe ho? Of course not. I would never be embarrassed or ashamed to be seen with him.

In fact, I would proudly flaunt him. As he is the kind of person everyone dreams. I was startled, as we were way too close. And I didn't want anyone to see us in such an intimate position.

Please chachu aise mat sochiye mere bareme.

Adi- I am sorry mene yeh socha. I just wanted a clarity. Me nahi chahunga ki tum dono me se koi bhi hurt ho.

You both are precious to me.

Ishu- ( I hugged him and he held me as well)

I promise to take care of him. I know ki aap usse bohot close hai and it affects you a lot. But trust me he is the bestest person and I would rather go crazy than hurting him.

Adi- hmm. Mene kaha tha na ki tum chote ho. Dekha ab bhi mere sine tak hi aate ho.

( he made distance and had a pout on his face)

Is shakal ka sirf alay, bhai or samar pe asar hota hai. Mujhpe nahi hoga. Shaitaan ho tum

Ishu- oldie. Me jaa raha hun.

Adi- Alay ko disturb karne jaa rahe ho kya? Vella nahi hai mera champ tumhari tarah.

Ishu- That's why you are still single. Sab apse pak jaate hai.

Adi- I am single by choice chote. Warna ladke ya ladkiyon ki kami nahi thi kabhi.

Ishu- ya ya sure. Bye.

Adi- Steve ko hi dekhlo.

( I couldn't help but chuckle at his whining. Pagal hai pura.)

IN KABIR'S STUDY-

samar- ( kabse dono baap bete pata nahi kya discuss kar rahe hai. I went inside and saw them working on their laptop's)

Ab bus bhi kariye Kabir. Sunday hai aaj, mujhe apka time chahiye or aap hai ki yeh kaam kar rahe ho.

Kabir- Jaan it's almost done. Bus 15 mins or and then I am all yours.

Samar- ( I sat beside him and he kissed my head. He is never shy to show his affection in front of anyone)

Alay- baba it's done. Please ek baar check kar lijiye.

Ishu- Baba,..

Kabir- Hmm, kya hua?

Ishu- mere Alay ko pura din yahin bithana hai?

Kabir- kya chahte ho fir? Woh kaam na kare?

Ishu- at least saturday sunday na kare kaam. That's family time baba.

Samar- bilkul sahi keh raha hai mera ishu. Haina alay..

Alay- ishu aap room me jao. I will wrap this up and then come there. It needs 15 mins more. Be good for me.

Ishu- ok. I will wait for you.

Samar- ( I widened my eyes and looked at Alay)

Kya jaadu kiya hai ispe? Kaise maan raha hai tumhari baatein  bina zid kiye?

Kabir- Alay, kaam ke waqt distraction nahi bilkul bhi.

Alay- ji baba. Mene yeh complete karke mail kiya hai apko. Ek baar dekh lijiye.

Kabir- hmm.

( I checked everything and it was perfect)

This is perfect. Good job. Now you can go.

Alay- Or kuch kaam hai?

Samar- nahi hai. Jao yahan se. Shu..

Kabir- nahin hai. Go, he must be waiting.

Samar- ( he went only after Kabir asked him to)

Kabir- Kya hua, muh kyu bana rahe ho?

Samar- apne dekha nahi, kaise sirf apki baatein maanta hai.

Meri toh jaise kadar hi nahi hai.

Kabir- when it's about work, he only listens to me. Stop pouting jaan.

( I kissed him)

Samar- Kabir aap yeh..

Kabir- shh, come here. Abhi toh keh rahe the ki time nahi deta me.

Samar- ( I hugged him and we were talking about all the random thing)

IN ALAY'S ROOM-

ishu- 15 mins bol kar 20 mins ho gaye hai.

Alay- par me apke paas aa gaya.

( he was sitting like a kid who got scolded. I locked the door and went closer. He got up from bed but I pulled him. In that process, we both fell on the bed)

Ishu- ( I was under him and he was supporting his weight on his hands)

Alay- ( I stared at him and he turned his face. His cheeks were red)

Kyu naraz hai meri jaan? Me bus 5 mins late hu.

Ishu- Sunday hai aaj Alay. You should give more time to me. I want all your attention. Focus on me.

Alay- that work was important janam. And my focus is only on you. That's why I completed everything and submitted. Now I am all free and yours.

Kya karna hai bataiye?

Ishu- Baatein karni and let's go shopping. Mene bohot time se shopping nahi ki hai.

Alay- thik hai jaate hai. Pehle apko mehsoos toh kar lu.

Ishu- ( he put all his weight on me. I held him closer and my eyes closed on its own because of our closeness. I ran my fingers through his hair.)

Alay- ( I can hear his shallow breaths because of our closeness. I sniffed him and he held my hair. I slowly moved back and looked at him. He was all red.)

Ishu- ( I felt him move away. I slowly opened my eyes and looked at him while he was already staring at me. He gave me his hand and I got up)

Alay- you wanna change your clothes?

Ishu- ( I don't trust my voice so I nodded as no)

Alay- ok. Let me just change mine.

Ishu- ( I went to my room and saw myself in the mirror. I was literally red. Fuck, he has such an effect on me. Damn, he is hot.

I washed my face and grabbed my wallet and phone. I opened the door and he was about to knock)

Alay- Chalein?

Ishu- Hmm.

( we both went downstairs and saw the elders sitting there)

Alay- hum shopping pe jaa rahe hai.

Adi- Achha, let me also join

Ishu- ( I grabbed alay's hand)

No, you are not coming. I wanna spend time with him. Chalo tum. Bye everyone.

Nina- dekha, he literally dragged Alay with him. ( we laughed at his antics)

Samar- aap kyu tang karte hai mere ishu ko? Kitna pyaara hai mera bachha.

Adi- Pyaara nahi hai bilkul. Kyu bhabhi?

Nina- Bilkul sahi kaha adi. Shaitaan hai bilkul.

Sameer- mera beta bohot pyaara hai.

Adi- haan haan. Waise bhai apne roka nahi unko jane se?

Sameer- hindi picture ka villain lagta hu kya tumhe?

Adi- isme lagna kya hai, aap ho.

Sameer- adi ke bachhe. Ouch..

Adi- Bhai umar ho gae hai apki. Itni zor se mat uthiye. Moov laga du?

Nina- ( we laughed at his words)

Sachme adi, bohot achha kiya wapas aake. Ghar me tumhare aane se ek alag hi positive energy aae hai.

Adi- thanks bhabhi. Mene actually aap sabko miss kiya. Ab or nahi raha jaata bina family ke.

Samar- Waise apki girlfriend thi na? Kya hua?

Adi- well, she wanted money. Ab apni property toh uske naam nahi kar sakta na. Pagal thodi na hu me.

Or waise bhi I am happy like this. Aap sab ho kaafi hai.

Kabir- sameer, Alay ne us project me help kari tumhari?

Sameer- Usne sign karne se last time mana kar diya tha. Usne saare rights ishu ko diye hai par ishu bhi sign nahi kar raha.

Kehta hai Alay ne mana kiya hai matlab kuch toh wajah hogi.

Kabir- sahi kaha hai usne. That company is fraud. Subah ki news dekhi nahi kya?

News whatsApp kari hai, dekhlo.

Sameer- ( I was shocked by this news.)

Par kaise possible hai? Itne bade brand se tie up hai inke.

Kabir- Sabne case kiya hai is company pe. Bach gaye.

Adi- alay toh bhai ki tarah nikla. Manna padega ki chahe sameer bhai usse pasand na kare par woh help karna band nahi kar raha.

Sameer- Mene kab kaha me usse pasand nahi karta. Pyaar karta hu bus rishte se problem thi. Ab maan toh gaya hu na.

Mujhe laga usne mujhe pareshaan karne k liye sign karne se mana kiya tha.

Kabir- mujhe bhi wahi laga. Mene pucha tab bataya usne ki wajah kya hai. Ab news dekh k pakka yajin hua hai.

He said, " Chahe mamu ko kitni bhi problem kyu na ho mujhse, lekin mene help isliye ki kyuki woh mere ishu ke dad or maa ke bhai hai".

Sameer- mamu bhi toh hu uska. Samjhao usse. Ajkal mujhe mamu nahi bolta, ishu ke dad bolta hai ya Mr singhania.

samar baat karo usse.

Kabir- woh baat nahi karega. Rishta tumne bigada hai or tumhi thik karoge. Koi help nahi karega iski.

Sameer- ( I looked at nina but she raised her hands. Kya karu ab?)

IN THE MALL

Ishu- Baby, let's go here. Yahan ki collections achhi dikh rahi hai.

Alay- ok.

Ishu- ( I was checking the shirts, when I saw the sales girl checking out Alay. She picked up a shirt and went closer to him.)

Sales girl- Sir, this will look good on you.

Alay- thanks but I am here with someone and I don't want anything.

Ishu- ( here with someone. Bol nahi sakta ki boyfriend k sath hu. I went towards them)

Baby, you chose this for me?

Alay- Nahi, she was showing me this. If you like it we can buy.

Ishu- I don't like it. Let's go the other way.

Alay- ok.

Ishu- ( I bought a few clothes. I was like a model showing him every outfit I tried. He chose those things for me and I love this.

He took me to a restaurant downstairs as we were hungry from all the walking and shopping.)

Waiter- How can I help you sir?

Ishu- By not staring at my man.

Waiter- sorry sir. He is just way too good looking.

Ishu- ( I just got up and I grabbed Alay's hand. I took him to the parking lot. He opened the car and I sat inside)

Alay- ( I sat in the driving seat and pulled him on my lap. )

Ishu- chodo mujhe. Alay please.

Alay- why so jealous baby? I am only yours.

Ishu- kisne kaha itna attractive hone ko? I didn't like the way those girls were staring at you like you were a meal.

I hate it. I feel like..

Alay- ( I kissed him. He calmed down a bit and started kissing me back.)

You feel the difference? Only you can have me, they can just look. I also get possessive but I know that only I have rights on you. They can just admire you from far.

Ishu- ( I hugged him tightly)

I am sorry. But I didn't like it.

Alay- it's ok. It shows how much you love me. But don't spoil your mood for someone else.

Show everyone, that I am yours. Pure haq se mujhe chuna sabke samne. Hmm

Ishu- haan. Let's go somewhere to eat.

Alay- it's risky to drive like this.

( he realised our position and turned red instantly. He sat on his seat and wore seatbelt)

Kiss karte waqt yeh sharam kahan jaati hai waise?

Ishu- ( I slapped his thigh and he laughed at my expense)

Drive now peasant.

Alay- Sure princess.

They spent the day well. After having lunch they went to the gaming zone and had fun. Ishu wanted to go to the beach and who was alay to say no. He fulfilled his wish and they had dinner at their favourite restaurant. They had ice cream as ishu was craving for it.

Soon they reached home and ishu went to get ready. He changed into his night wear and came to alay's room to sleep. They slept as tomorrow they had an office and ishu was tired from all the walking and shopping.
