Two days passed, Daya stayed at home because of bad vision. Also he didn't let Abhijeet to have leave because he didn't want to be a hindrance in his buddy's work. He woke up and put on his glasses which were laying innocently on the side table. Today he felt much better than before with glasses he could see almost fairly, but if anyone would have noticed the thickness of his glasses then they would know how weak his eyes were right now. Setting every bad thought aside he freshed up as today is Sunday and he has some plans to refresh the gloomy aura in the house.
At breakfast table, both were silently eating breakfast. After breakfast was done Daya told his plans to Abhijeet enthusiastically: Abhi jaldi sy tyar ho jao hummy jana hai…
Abhijeet surprisingly: kahan jana hai humny? Or tum already formals mai ho maine notice he nhi kiya…
Daya: maine kaha tha na maine bht sary plans bnaye huye hain bs unhi ko pura krny ka waqt a gaya hai…
Abhijeet asked: yaar yeh paheliyan na bhujwao mjh sy sidhy sidhy btao k baat kiya hai…
Daya a bit irritatingly: Abhi tum tyar ho k a rhy ho ya nhi…
Abhijeet surrendered: acha bhai tyar bhi ho jaty hain pehly yeh sb (eyeing dining table and kitchen) smait lain phir tyar ho kr chalain gy…
Daya: lekin boss phir dair ho jaye gi na…
Abhijeet: nhi hoti dair abhi 11 bj rhy hain bs aik ghanta lagy ga… mai yeh sb kr raha hun tb tk tum ja k medicines lo…
Daya: Acha lekin please jaldi krna hummy aik bjy tk pohanchna hai…
Abhijeet: aik to bta nhi rhy k kahan pohanchna hai… uper sy baatain kr k time bhi waste kr rhy ho or keh rhy ho k jaldi karun… tum jaldi karo or bhago yahan sy mera time na waste karo…
Daya hurriedly run realizing his mistake while loudly saying: Abhi tumharay pass sirf aik ghanta hai bhulna mat…
Abhijeet nodded his head disappointedly. He with fast hands completed all the chores around the house in half an hour. By the 12 o'clock he was ready and was standing at the door, shouting Daya's name with: Daya aa bhi ja yaar… mjhe keh raha tha k jaldi karo or khud he late kr raha hai… (Again took his name loudly) Dayaaaaa… a jao yaar…
Daya descending the stairs with: haan haan a gaya bhai… (standing in front of him with) chalo chalain…
He was going to sit at the front seat but stopped, seeing this Abhijeet came forward and sat inside driving seat cheerfully: chal aaj mai driving karun ga… (Daya looked at him and nodded) lekin usky liye mjhe pata hona zaroori hai k hum kahan ja rhy hain…
Daya sighed: tum surprise bhi surprise nhi rehny dety yaar… khair hum XYZ mall ja rhy hain…
Abhijeet asked: aur wo kyun?
Daya annoyingly: tunhary sath movie dekhni thi… (seeing Abhijeet's slight smile) ab khush… hunh yeh nhi k thora sa suspense brkarar rehny dy… chlo bhi ab…
Abhijeet tried to irritate him more: or movie konsi dekhain gy hum?
Daya frustratingly: The Lion King… nayi live action ayi hai… meri favorite hai… tumhary sath dekhni hai… bs kafi hai ya or kuch bhi poochna hai?
Abhijeet: wese to mery pass or bhi bht sawal (Daya started to open the car door) acha acha sorry ab nahi karun ga…
Daya: wahi acha hoga tumhary liye…
Abhijeet laughed and they went to mall.
Cinema
Both watched the movie their eyes filled with tears when the little cub was all left alone in the merciless world.
After movie Daya told Abhijeet that he also needs to do some shopping. Both shopped for various things most shopping was done by Daya. After spending a relax day they were going to leave the mall when suddenly Daya screamed.
Abhijeet got worried: Kiya hua Daya…?
Daya anxiously: ohh nooo… mera watch ka bag wahi dukaan pr the gaya…
Abhijeet taking a breath: dara diya mjhe bhala koi esy cheekhta hai… maine socha pata nhi kiya ho gaya… tum ruko yahan mai ly k aata hun…
Daya stopped him: nahi tum ruko mai ly k aata hun… (seeing Abhijeet was going to say something) bs mai yun gaya or yun aaya… tum gari mai betho ja k mai abhi aya…
Unwilling Abhijeet agreed.
Daya went inside the shop and collected his bag. He reached the parking lot and sat inside the car.
It was already 7 pm so both decided to grab dinner in Daya's favorite restaurant which is quite far from their current location. They reached their in an hour as there was traffic. They had a good dinner time. It can be said that it was a day spent well. To make the day more pleasant they were sitting on the beach. Both were enjoying the presence of each other when Daya exclaimed: chalo Abhi ice-cream khaty hain…
Saying this he stood up and rushed to buy it. He was happily returning with two cones of ice-cream when he stepped upon a stone and misbalanced and he bumped into a man. Due to the bump his ice-cream cone fell upon the man. He was going to apologize for the accident but stopped.
Man harshly: itny moty moty chashmy laga kr bhi dikhai nhi deta kiya tjhe... Aandha kahin ka sary kapry kharab kr diye… sari shirt ka satiyanaas kr diya… (Daya was standstill om his place and was listening to him) bhagwaan ny na yeh aankhain dekh kr chalny k liye di hain… show piece ki tarhan mathy pr sajany k liye nahi…
Abhijeet saw this from far he rushed there and stand in between them: kiya hai haan… tameez nhi hai baat krny ki?
Daya gripped his hand and nodded in no. Abhijeet sighed: chalo… (he just glanced at that man angrily and left).
During the ride towards home no one spoke a single word, In the way Abhijeet stopped at a bakery and purchased cornetto. After reaching home Daya made his way to his room. He went inside washroom and rubbed his eyes and splashed water on his face. He looked at his blur face. Then he remembered his own promise and tried not to shed any tears to keep his promise from breaking. He came out of the washroom and found Abhijeet sitting on his bed with ice-creams in his hands. Daya came to him and smiled seeing him there, Abhijeet tried to say something but Daya took ice-cream from his hand and started eating it. Abhijeet also started eating his own share. Both enjoyed ice-cream with light chit chat.
Next day they went to the hospital for their appointment with Dr. Farhan.
Dr. Farhan: Good morning… kesy hain aap Mr. Daya.
Daya smilingly: Good morning, I'm fine Dr. and please just call me by my name no need for Mr.
Dr. Farhan: sure, to Daya aj hum apna main treatment start karain gy… hum apko through IV steroids dain gy… aap ready hain?
Daya paled listening to this as he is extremely afraid of needles but what else he could do: g Dr.
Dr. Farhan: to yeh treatment teen din tk continue hoga… hopefully iss sy faida hoga… (he called at reception and asked nurse to come) abhi nurse ayein gi aap unke sath jayein wo aapko cannula laga dy gi… (as soon as he completed his sentence someone knocked on the door granting permission to enter, Dr. Called her inside and told her what to do.)
Both Daya and Abhijeet left from there with nurse, she took her to a room.
Nurse: aap please yahan bethain…
Nurse prepared everything needed: laiye apna hath dijiye…
Daya looked Abhijeet and nodded his head in no. Abhijeet tried to relax and forward his hand but Daya jerked him: maine kuch nhi lagwana… mjhe nhi pata mai ja raha hun…
Daya was going to stood up and go but Abhijeet stopped him: acha mai Rahul ko bulata hun… agar wo kary ga tb to karao gy na treatment…
Daya: nhi mjhe kisi sy kuch nhi karana… mjhe bs ghar jana hai… wesy bhi confirm to nhi hai na k mai treatment k baad theek ho jaunga… to iss sy acha k mai khud ko aziyat na dun or jo ho raha hai wo hony dun…
Abhijeet to nurse: aap please Dr. Rahul ko bula daib wo handle kr lain gy yeh…
Nurse left. Abhijeet sat beside Daya and grabbed his hand tightly, he said: kuch nhi hoga… mai hun na…
After 5 mins Rahul entered into the room, he had ordered nurse to stay with his patient until he comes back.
Rahul: Good Morning. Or bhai kyun yaad kiya mjhe subah subah…
Abhijeet narrated everything. He had the idea what was going on as nurse also had mentioned the same thing. He softly sat on the stool beside the bed and grabbed Daya's hand. He started to put cannula on his left hand, which Daya didn't like in the slightest but he could not do anything as he had two most precious and strict persons beside him. Treatment started, Abhijeet stayed by his side as today he had took a day off after a long argument with Daya in the morning. Time passed and after two hours his left hand and whole arm started swelling. He was also feeling pain in it. Dr. Farhan had visited him some minutes ago and had said that this is a side effect of the medicine so no need to fret. To ease the pain Abhijeet continuously rubbed his arm with soft hands.
Late afternoon they came back home. Boty had some light lunch and Daya left to get some rest as he was tired. But sleep was miles away from his eyes, with his head aching a lot. Abhijeet came inside to see if he needed something.
Abhijeet: kuch chahiye Daya to mjhe bata do…
Daya: yar painkiller dy do please, sar mai bht dard ho raha hai…
Abhijeet: nhi Daya ab tumhy teen din tk koi medicine nhi leni…
Daya: lekin mery sar mai bht dard ho raha hai yaar… (suddenly nausea hit him hard, he rushed inside washroom while covering his mouth. Abhijeet tried to move behind him in hurry but he locked himself inside)
Abhijeet worriedly pacing outside the door, ten minutes later he came out with a towel in his hand. Throbbing in his head had increased ten folds.
Daya threw towel on the chair present in the room and sat down on the bed with head clutched in hands. Abhijeet made him lay in bed and started pressing his head. Daya surrendered himself to his brother's soft hands and didn't realize when he went to sleep.
