All the cadets and trainers were present in the drill area. They were doing their usual routines. Sid & Harshad was noticing it from a distance.
Si : Tujhe pata hai, Harsh bro. Yeh saab training dekh kar mujhe woh sab purana wala memories yaad aajati hai. How I came here and how my life changed. Choro yeh saab baat, Monu se mila kya?
Ha : Nahi, sorahi thi. So, I didn't disturb hed.
Si : Mai usse milkar aata hu. Maybe she is awake now.
Ha : Hmm
Sid left. Harshad notices Riya. He walks up to her.
Ha : Hi.
Ri : Oo, hi.
After that, there was an awkward silence. Riya decides to break it.
Ri : Ek baat puch saakti hu?
Ha : Of course.
Ri : Rope climbing ki time tum kya humesha intentionally gir jate?
Ha : Wow. Very smart.
Ri : Woh, I am sorry.
Ha : Wait mai thikse suna nahi kya kaha tumne?
Ri : I am sorry.
Ha : Phirse, baatao kya kaha?
Now, Riya gives him a death glare.
Ha : Just joking. Accha sorry kyu?
Ri : Maine bohot ulta siddha baat kaha tumko.
Ha : It's okay. To be honest, mai bhi bohot irritate hojata if I see a person falling from the rope every single day.
Riya chuckles hearing it. Harshad also smiles widely. On the other side, Sid enters the dispensary and sees Monami doing something on the phone.
Si : Kaisa ho, monu bro?
Mo : Accha.

Mo : Aisehi. You know, scrolling through the Instagram reels.
Si : Bechara, kitna bore ho rahi haina tu.
Mo : Ha, yaar. Ek kaam karte hai. Garden mai chalte hai. Kisiko kuch pata bhi nahi chalega.

Mo : Kyu, bro? Chal na?
Si : Mujhe Harsh bro aur Maya sis ki haat se mar khane kya koi shauk nahi hai.
Mo : Mai hu na. Kuch nahi hoga.
Si : No.
Mo(with puppy eyes) : Please.
Si : Okay fine.
Sid helps Monami to stand up. They go towards the garden and spend some time in nature. After that, they go towards the dispensary. But found Maya, Harshad & Karan in the dispensary.
Si : Oh, hello bro and sis tum log yeh par.
Ma : Kya ho raha hai?

Mo : Please yaar, aise koi crime kiya humne. Thoda park mai to gaya.

Mo : Okay, baba. Sorry. Par sid ko koi kuch nahi kahega. Koi kuch kahenga to mai medicine lena bandh kardungi.
Karan, Maya & Harshad hummed in response. But also give a death glare to Sid.
Ma : Thik hai. Di, dekho mai tumheri favorite broccoli soup le ayi.
Mo : Broccoli Soup! Oh no.
Ha : Nautanki maat kar. Tu yeh par aa mai teri hair comb kar deta hu. Tera hair to koi crow house se kaam nahi hai.
Mo : Harshu.

Everyone laughed. Maya started feeding her, Harshad starts combing Monami's hair & Sid starts massaging Monami's feet. Karan sees it and smiles. Their bond is something that will never break.
