Mobile Showroom

Ashutosh had taken Shefali to a mobile showroom. Shefali was reluctant to enter.

Shefali - "There is no need of a mobile phone..."

Ashutosh - "Oh really! How am I supposed to contact you? Come on Shefali, we are a couple. What would you do when I will be in office and you will miss me? We don't have a landline phone, so how will you contact me? How will we send each other sweet messages? Tell me."

Shefali giggles at Ashutosh's arguements. She could easily see the efforts he was taking to change her mood. She decided to play along.

Shefali - "I thought I would send a pigeon with the letter like that song Kabootar Jaa."

(The song is added in the media)

Ashutosh looks at her surprised. 

Ashutosh - "You like that song?"

Shefali - "Yes. I had listened to it on radio once."

Ashutosh (smiling) - "But the pigeon might get lost. You see that one from the movie was very intelligent. But yours might not be."

Shefali laughs. Her laughter was like a sweet music to Ashutosh's ears.

Ashutosh - "Okay. Now, we will buy a cell phone for you."

Shefali nods. They go to the counter and request for good smartphones. After spending a good half an hour, the purchase Moto G5S plus.(I love this phone :D)  Ashutosh inserts a SIM card into it and switches on the phone.

Shefali - "From where did the SIM card come?"

Ashutosh - "I had got the SIM card that day itself but....could not give it to you."

Shefali nods. They go back to the photo studio and return to their flat, after collecting Shefali's photos.

Outside Ashutosh's flat

Ashutosh rings up Ayushi.

Ashutosh - "We are outside. Open the door." He cuts the call. (To Shefali) "Talk to Ayushi now. I will be in our room."

Before Shefali can react, Ayushi opens the door. Both of them enter.

Living Room 

Ayushi gets water for the couple. 

Shefali - "Ayushi, I have to talk to you. Let's go to your room."

Ayushi nods and they go to her room.

Ayushi's Room

Ayushi sits on the bed. She was in a very good mood. Shefali closes the door and sits next to her.

Shefali - "Ayu,I am going to tell you something very serious. So, listen patiently and try to understand it."

Ayushi nods.

Shefali - "Ayu, you remember telling me that Rajat got angry when you called him bhaiya, and forced you to call him Raja?"

Ayushi nods.

Shefali - "There is a reason for that. Rajat claims to be in love with you...."

Ayushi gasps.

Shefali - "He had even asked Ashutosh for your hand in marriage. Ashutosh refused since he thinks that Rajat and his family have a very narrow thinking. And obviously you are very young."

Ayushi - "Obviously Bhabhi. And he is like an elder brother to me. And I agree with Bhai."

Shefali(nodding) - "As a revenge, he had drugged Ashutosh that night, as a result of which Ashutosh behaved like that."

Ayushi gasps. She could not believe her ears. Though she was just two years younger than Shefali, Ayushi was not matured enough to handle such a situation. Shefali's childhood and her parent's behaviour had taught her many things. She was accustomed to shocks while Ayushi was not.

Ayushi hugs Shefali. Fear was evident on her face. The man who could hurt her brother, could even hurt her. 

Ayushi (screaming) - "Bhai. Bhai."

Ashutosh came running into the room. He looks at Ayushi and Shefali. One was afraid, the other was worried. He sits on his knees in front of Ayushi.

Ashutosh - "Ayu, nothing will happen. I am there naa. Why are you worrying? No body will harm you."

Ayushi - "Bhai, what if he tries to harm me?"

Ashutosh - "You remember that big fat boy, who used to live near our house? Once he had pushed you from the swing and you had hurt you elbow. What had happened after that?"

Ayushi - "You has beaten him black and blue and then his parents had come  to complain. Dad had locked you in the room in front of them and as soon as they left, he had given you an ice cream party, saying that it is okay to fight for your sister."

Ashutosh smiles.

Shefali - "See, you were small then. If at that time your brother did this, imagine what he will do now."

Ayushi laughed. Ashutosh gets up and sits next to her.

Ashutosh - "Ayu, the man who dares to think of hurting you, won't be fit enough to even hurt a mosquito. Trust me."

Ayushi (hugging him) - "I love you, Bhai."

Ashutosh - "I love me too."

Ayushi starts beating him and soon both of them were running around in the house.
