"Obviously mere Ira ha hi itni brave" he said making her heart stop beating...

Irum looked at his face, unable to remember how long it had been since he last called her Ira.

She knows Haider loves her more than anything in the world, but she can't understand why he doesn't show his love.

She understands that he is strict with her because he thinks she is spoiled, but she wonders why he keeps putting boundaries between them.

If he wants to be strict, that's fine, but does he have to be so distant?

She wants to talk to him about everything, and she wants to cry in his arms like she used to when she was younger.

She wants her brother back, and she is willing to do anything for that.

She wants to explain to him how the harsh world has been so unfair to his Ira, his bacha...

she wants to share her feelings with him.

She wants to tell him how much his actions and attitude affect her...

But over the years of him being strict, a distance has grown between them.

She has lost her trust and belief in him.

She still remembers the day she got hurt, and he comforted her, even though it caused him to fail a test because he left his studies for her.

A young, handsome 14-year-old boy sat on his bed, busily working on math equations for his test the next day.

He has left the preparation of his test to the last minute even after his 'bhaijaan' has warned him not to

He was completely focused on his work until a little creature burst into the room, crying her heart out and looking incredibly adorable.

"Haidal bhai," she wailed... taken aback, He immediately set his books aside and pulled her onto his lap.

"kya hua, Ira Bache?" he asked, gently stroking her back as she continued to cry in his arms.

"Bhai," she managed to say between sobs, "Ji bhai ki jaan."

"dald ho raha ha" Haider frowned "Acha pehla Rona band karo mere jaan, aur batao kahan dard ho raha ha?" She looked at him with teary eyes

"idhar" she pointed towards her hand which was red by now "Yeh kese hua,?" he asked shocked cause it was clear that someone had hardly slapped her on her arm

"Hamza bhai ne mala" she once again cried hiding her face in his chest "Hamza ne?" he questioned while she nodded in reply

"Acha bache ap Rona band karo apko aise dekh kar mujhay bhi rona aa raha ha, ap chahti ho ke mein bhi roun?" she peeked out of his embrace and shook her head

She wiped her tears with her tiny hands "Nai bhai ap nahi lona ache bache nahi lote, apko pata hai cachu ne saad ko kaha tha agar wo roi ga to cachu usko injection lagein ga... Aur yeh sun kal woh aur zor se rone laga"

She laughed remembering how Saad was crying while sticking to Ali like a koala...

"acha yeh, baat hai to phir mein nahi roun ga par ap bhi nahi ro... Strong girls nahi rote" he softly made her understand while cuddling her close

"par bhai agar strong girls ko kisi baat ka bura lage yah dard ho to bhi nahi rote," she asked innocently while tilting her head

"Are strong girl na sirf apne family ke samne rote hein, jo unse pyaar karein aur kisi ke samne nahi" he made her understand

"sirf unke samne jo unse pyaar karte hein?" she asked cutely making Hauder chuckle and nod his head

"OK, bhai mein ab kabhi kisi ke agne nahi roun gi jo mujh se pyaar na karte" She smiled "Promise?" Haider said "Promise" She giggled and kissed his cheek 

Haider had no idea how big of a mistake he was making, his words affected the little girl's heart deeply

The day she not only promised him but in fact, she promised herself to never show anyone her weak side...

Irum was lying on Haider's chest when Hamza entered with his head hung low...

"Hamza" Haider called him sternly and held his hand as he got closer to them

"nai nai bhai please marna nahi ha pehla hi dard ho rahi ha" he said scaredly as Hader always held his hands before giving him wacks

"kyun dard ho rahi ha?" he asked but this time softly "Baba ne mara ha" he pouted and crawled onto the bed laying on one side of Haider while Irum was lying on the other side

"kyun mara baba ne apko?" he questioned

"kyun ke is churail ne mere shikayat kar di," he said glaring at Irum who was looking at him with a full attitude

Haider glared at Hamza and whacked him on his back making him jump out of his embrace and sit

Hamza rubbed his back as he started crying "Bhai mere galti nahi ha inse garden se chipkali pakar li thi aur chor nahi rahi thi is liye mein ne hath se churwane ki koshish ki to isko lag gai"

He cried still rubbing his back, his father had given him some good and hard wacks which hurt a lot and now haiders wacks made the pain worse

"chipkali,?" he asked Irum with wide eyes "Bhai apke kan kharab ho gai he kya,?" she questioned

"ap yeh batao ap ne chipkali kyu pakri?" He ignored her question

"kyu ke mein ne chipkali saad ko khilani thi" she grinned "aur woh kyu?"

"kyun ke chipkali khane se peet kharab ho jata ha na isliye" Haider palmed his face

"beta chipkali ha kacha aloo nahi jo peet kharab ho ga, chipkali khane se death ho jati ha" he tried to make her understand

Irum's eyes sparkled as she immediately sat down "Sachi pehla batana tha na mein abhi Khilati hun usse"

Hiader pulled her back as she was about to run off the bed

"pagal larki apko pata hai agar death ho jai gi to ap saad ko kabhi nahi mil pao gi" She stopped struggling in his arms after hearing his words

"Kabhi nahi?" he shook his head "Acha phir nahi dete warna Bhaijaan boht sad ho jein ga aur Maheen woh to ro ro kar, tsunami le ai gi ghar mein" she again snuggled in his chest

While Haider pulled a crying hamza in his embrace "Acha mere jaan I am sorry zor se lagi kya" Haider asked as he rubbed his back where he had hit him

Hamza nodded cutely with teary eyes "Oho bhai kitne dramebaaz ho ap muj se sekho kabhi dekha ha mujhay rote Huai" she said proudly while flipping her hair

"ge dekha ha abhi thori der pehla hi 'baba baba' kar ke ro rahi thi" he glared at her

"Ofo woh to acting kar rahi thi apko mar parwane ke liye, apko kya lagta he mein itni weak hun ke apke soft se hath se mar kahne se rone lag jaun gi" she laughed

"Pata hai yeh nishan bhi mein ne kud hi mar mar kar banai ha" she grinned while showing her tiny arm which was red 

"bhai dekha apne" he whined to Haider who chuckled "Acha ab bas karo donon aur so jao"

He nulled them into sleep who slept within five minutes... Haider smiled looking at them both as they were fighting a few minutes ago and were now sleeping while holding each other's hands...

Without realizing he slept while admiring them both... And failed his test the next day...
