Charu's POV
The ICT (Including Charu) had been waiting in the airport for their tour bus. It had been about an hour since they reached Sri Lanka. She was talking to Mahi Bhai. He was telling her about his kiddos. She felt very warm seeing the way his eyes shined while talking about them.

She hadn't really spoken to Rohit after the shoot incident. Eventhough their eyes met several times. The bus arrived and everyone was getting on it when she saw someone left their phone. Rohit.

Ro:Mahi Bhai apne mera phone kahi dekha hai kya?

Bhai was about to say something when Charu interupped.

Charu: Mere pass hai. Actually I was checking to see if anyone left their stuff or not aur yeh phone ek seat pe para tha.

Vi: Arre iski baat chod hi do, Charu. Aur kya hi batau tumko itna bhullakad hai ki har chiz bhul jata hai.

Ro: Abbey, tu mere bare me ye sab ulta chiz Charu ko kyun bata rahi hai

Ms: Thik hi to bol raha hai cheeku.

Ro: Firse aap uski side le rahe hai.

Sonu: Arre bachha dont worry main tere side main hun.

Ro: Thank you bhai, you are the best

Ms:Wah ab woh best ban gaya?

Charu: Guys bass. Ab hume hotel bhi pohochna hai. Yahi pe sab discussion khatam kar doge to fir waha pe kya baat karoge.

Everyone agreed to Charu and got on the bus. Charu took a seat next to Rohit because Jaddu (his assigned seat mate sat next to Virat).

Charu: Kya hua tumhe? Itna dukhi kyun lag rahe ho?

Ro: Mahi Bhai humesha uss vi ka side lete hai aur humesha mujhse expect karte hai ki main unki baat man lun. Tum hi batao ye fair hai?

Charu: Tum unse bohot pyar karte ho na?

Ro: Haan of course

Charu: To fir unki baat bhi samajhne ki koshish karo. Dekho, jitna time maine vi ko dekha hai he is naturally childish and clingy so its natural for Bhai to expect mature behaviour from your side. Tum bhi to naturally mature ho, mana ki Mahi bhai ke liye tun kiddo ho par kabhi khabhi tumhe mature act karna chahiye in sab matters pe.

Ro:You're right aur waise bhi tab mera hi galti tha. Kya mujhe unse mafi mang lena chahiye?

Charu: Mujhe nahi lagta ki you have that kind of relationship with him ki tumhe maafi mangna padega aur uske baad hi woh tumhe maaf karenge. Mujhe to lagta hi dil se unhone tumhe maaf kardiya hai. Mere paas ek idea hai, tum bass mere hints follow karo.

She quickly cleared her throat and drew everyones attention towards her.

Charu: Guys agar sab ka saye ho to hum koi game khele. Actually itna lamba journey hai to time bhi bit jaygi.

Sonu: Yeh to sahi baat hai par hum khelenge kya.

Jaddu: Truth or Dare?

yuvi: Charu behen ka idea hai, usse hi batane de kya khelna chahti hai.

Charu: Thank you, bhai. Actually mere phone pe ek list hai usme lakbhak 20 topics hai. Aap sabko ek number choose karna he jispe depend karke aapko ek topic milegi jis par apko ek personal expirience share karna hoga.

Everyone agreed to play it and the game started.

Charu: Rohit ab aap ek number choose karo.

Ro: um 14.

Charu: Ok tumhara topic hai "Comfort person"

Without even thinking for a second Rohit said

Ro: Mahi bhai,obviously. When I first joined the team tab I was very nervous aur tab yuvi pa bhi mujhe bhao nahi dete the. Sab kuch mujhe bura sapna lagta tha aur uss bure sapne ko achha sapna Mahi Bhai ne banaya tha. Mujhe khabhi laga hi nahi ke main unka apna nahi hun. Mere sare problems ke bare me main unhe hi to batata hun.

A huge smile spread across Mahi Bhai's face. Eventhough he would never admit he was a little jealous(read: extremely) of Rohit's closeness to Sonu Bhai but his words warmed his heart.

Charu: Ok ab Mahi Bhai ki bari.

Ms: 7

Charu: apki topic hai "something you were afraid of in the beginning but now you love it."

Ms: Being 'Mahi Bhai' . Initially mujhe bohot dar lagta tha. Mujhe nahi lagta tha ki main kabhi dada ki tarha apni juniors ka kheyal rakh paunga until ek dara hua nervous Ro mere room ke samne khara ho gaya yeh sochte ki he didn't belong. Tab naturally main Mahi se Mahi bhai bann gaya. Ab to yeh mera favourite chiz hai.

Rohit was looking at Charu. She could feel him smile.

Jaddu: Tum sabko question kar rahe ho ab hum bhi tumhe koi topic de?

Charu: Haa do na.

Vi: "Your love story"

Charu: Meri koi love story nahi hai.

Vi: fir kaisa ladka tumhe chahiye.

Charu: Ladka chahiye koi khana nahi ki 'zada sweet, kam teekha' bataungi. Jaisa bhagwan ki marzi waisa. Par agar bangali ho to achha hoga.

Ro:kyun?

Charu: Meri language samjhega to mere problems ko bhi zada achhe se samjhega na?

Ro: Agar koi tumhe pyaar karega to bina bole hi tumhari baat samajh jayega isme language ka kuch nahi.

By the time everyone finished playing the game they reached the hotel. Everyone got off the bus and Ro and Charu were the last ones.

Ro: Thank you once again.

Charu: This is my job, once again.

Ro: I thought tum meri manager ho but therapist bhi ho ye to nahi pata tha. CV me mention karna bhul gaye kya?

She laughed and moved forward. Rohit was walking ahead her suddenly stopped and turned around

Charu: 403

Ro: huh?

Charu: 403, tumhara room number. Pata tha bhul jayoge.
