~*~*~*~*~*~

" Ritsy Kya hua Ro ko "
" Ha bhabhi kya bol rahe the Sky bhai "

Asked Shrey and Virat together.

Ritika just stood there trying to process the news, it is when Radhika took her in a  hug that she started crying saying " Ro....Radhu...Ro is in hospital"

Radhika tried calming her down saying " shush Ritsy....please don't cry he will be okay...."

Even Virat came forward and rubbing Ritsy's back he said  "Ritsy.... please calm down and tell us properly...what did Surya say"

Taking deep breaths and drinking water which Shreyas offered her... Ritika calmed down a bit before saying " sky just said Ro is in Hospital and to come to MCA Hospital which is beside the stadium."

"So let's leave then, " said Virat.

" Yes.....let's leave....Radhu..you... you go home...you need to pick Arya from her activity school...don't keep her waiting." Said Ritsy leaving with Virat.

Radhika just nodded to her and turned towards Shrey and said " why are you standing here... aren't you going to hospital "

" I'll go to Hospital but after dropping you and Arya home " said Shrey..

" That won't be needed.... I'm taking Ritsy's car with me and which I'll leave in Surya's parking space and will inform Devisha to drop it later at Ritsy's place " said Radhika.

" You sure bhab's" asked shrey once again.

" I'm totally sure Shrey....now go " saying so she pushed him slightly towards his car and she herself got in Ritika's car.

In Hospital:

When Virat, Ritika and Shrey reached the Hospital they directly went towards the 3rd floor where Surya had asked Ritsy to come.

Coming out of the lift they spotted the whole ICT in the waiting room and walking little ahead they spotted Surya trying to console a crying Rishabh and Jassi standing in corner like statue just outside emergency room.

" Surya what happened to Ro....where is he and tumlog sab idhr kese ? Tumhara toh match tha na fir kya hua " asked Virat

" Ro bhai is inside.... ( He pointed towards emergency room) actually vo match got abandoned due to rain so we were just preparing to leave when bhai got a call and he went out to answer it....and after some 5-10 mins we heard Rish's shout and came out to see Bhai had fallen down the stairs so we just rushed him here and currently Doctors are checking on him so we don't have any update yet."  Surya explained.

Ritika just sat beside Rishabh hearing everything.... Rishabh who was busy crying till now got aware of other presence.

When he saw his bhabhi...he just hugged her still crying he said " sorry bhabhi.... because of me bhaiya is here.... if I haven't called him to stadium for match then this wouldn't have happened....I'm so sorry bhab's this time I couldn't be on time to help bhaiya "

" No...no please don't say like this kiddo....it wasn't your fault and nothing will happen to Ro.... you know na your bhaiya is fighter right....and ha why are you saying sorry it wasnt your fault... did you push Ro down the stairs no na then....it was just accident. And accident happens however much we try to avoid it....so please stop crying...do you want your bhaiya to see his kiddo crying..." Said Ritsy coming out of hug and wiping Rishabh's tears.

Rishabh was about to say something when they spotted Doctor coming out..and rushed towards him asking " is Ro/bhai okay doctor?"

Looking at their panicked faces doctor said " he is out of danger....there isn't anything to worry as  such, since he didn't have any internal injuries in his head other than the outer one but he sure will have concussion and constant headache for a week and we think while falling down he must have tried protecting his head by hands to lessen the impact but in process it just added more pressure on his one hand, due to which his right wrist has got fractured and he has also sprained his left ankle and other than that he should get consciousness by night hopefully."

" Doctor....can we please see him..." Asked Virat.

" See Mr Kohli I understand you want to meet him...but he needs all the rest now...so that concussion effect doesn't be that serious...." Answered Doctor.

" We understand Doctor...but please 10 mins...we won't disturb him ...we just want to see him please " pleaded Virat.

" Okay Mr Kohli....you can meet him once we shift him in his room and that too only for 10 mins"  said the doctor before leaving from there.

While waiting...Rishabh's eyes spotted Jassi standing in corner and he just charged towards Jassi like angry bull saying " I know you hate bhaiya because you think he betrayed Jinks bhai....but itna bhi kya gussa Jasprit.....that you couldn't even hold his hand to save him from falling down the stairs....koi kisi anjan insan ko bhi bachne ki koshish krta hai....but you Jass......you just stood there watching him fall....how could you  "

Jass who was still standing in corner guilty was shock by Rishabh's sudden attack and his guilt just increased 10 times more while saying "he.....he sav...saved me "

" What" Rishabh asked in a big shock.

" Yes....he....he saved me from falling....there was water on the stairs and I didn't see it and was about to fall. When he pulled me by my hand and saved me...while doing so he lost his footing and fell down..... I was too shocked to do anything.... believe me Rishu i was just shock with all sudden happening...my anger towards him would never overpower my love and respect for him that I would just let him fall in front of my eyes without doing anything..... please believe me Rishabh if i wasn't shock i would have tried to save him....so please don't blame me of this..."

" Why shouldn't I blame you ha....and why should I even hear your justification or rather believe it....did you hear Ro bhai's pleads to hear him out once...no right. You didn't even tried to know what exactly happened that day between Jinks and Ro bhai or more importantly what caused them to fight... you just heard half and took your decision....then why do you think I will listen to you....i choose to believe what I saw... and i saw that you didn't tried saving my bhaiya ." Said Rishabh.

Totally unaware that in his anger towards Jassi he has spilled a few things,  in front of the person who was unaware of it , hearing it, Virat now stood rooted to his place, totally shocked.

And Jass on other hand was feeling a deja vu moment...as he remembered he too had spoken the same words to Rohit when he was pleading him to listen to him once....

When Ritika came out after seeing Rohit....she found a very tense environment.... Risbhab was still taking deep breaths trying to calm himself....Jassi was still standing lost in his own world and Virat was staring into nothing and exact same moment even Sky and shreyas came back who had went to update ICT about Ro's condition.

" Vi...do you want to go see Ro first or will you go after Rishu? " Asked Ritika.

Not getting any answer from Virat , she shook him bit and said " Vi...what happened...where are you lost "

" Ro betrayed Jinks....Jass hates Ro... Ro and Jinks fought" Mumbled Virat still in daze.

Ritika, Shreyas and Surya who heard Virat...stood shocked for a second before Shreyas asked " what...what are you talking bhai ? "

" I...i heard Rishu and Jass argue..." Virat was saying when Rishu came running out of Rohit's room shouting for Doctor...

Shreyas went to call doctor...and Surya , Ritika ran towards Risbhab asking "what happened Rishu....is...Ro okay"

" Bhaiya...is awake but—-"

"But what?" Asked Virat

"Woh!!"

"Woh kya Rish aur kya chupaya ja raha hai mujhse, spill everything right now you both..kuch kadar hi nahi tum sab logo ko mere emotions ki , mere dono best friend, i doubt aab hai bhi ya nhi, *smiling sadly* have not spoken in five years and no one even thought once before telling me about it....I would have tried to resolve it (turning to Jass) and you Jassi, Ro has been your idol na toh aisa kya ho gaya ki you hate him. Common speak up chup kyu ho tum sab '' Virat shouted finally coming out of his daze. Looking towards Ritsy he added "Ritsy , tum yehi batane aayi thi naa aaj 5 saal baad…aab me itna paraya ho gya hu , ki you didn't feel it important to tell me. Ritsy hum toh ek dusre ke partner in crime huwa karte the na ...fir tumhe 5 saal kyu Lage muhje batane ki mere dono Bestfriends have fallen apart. They aren't in talking terms. That something has happened which destroyed such precious bond, which we so cherished. My bestie's first kiddo hates him , how did we become so much distant that you didn't think it important to tell me. ANSWER ME CHUP KYUUU HO TUM " he finally ended up shouting on her.

Surya who was watching this, tried to calm  him down by rubbing his back but Virat chids him away saying " if I'm not wrong tumhe bhi sab pata hoga.." Surya just looked down, so Virat adds " ohh what else can I even except from Ro's pet Oopies small brother right... following your Big B steps...Virat toh bass idolise krne ke layak hai....mai toh tumhara Bhai kbhi ban hi nahi Paya....jo tum mujhe kuch bhi aake bol shako. Me toh sirf kehne ke liye Virat Bhau hu kiuki asli me toh sirf Ro hi tumhara Bhai hai , kyu sahi kaha na ..oh now i get it . You knew about everything Ro and jinks ka —  mujse toh bola bhi nhi ja raha . They never used to come together anywhere in any of our gatherings. "

Sky was just looking down while Ritsy trying to hold back her tears said " Vi ek baar-------"

"Nahi sunna hai mujhe me hu hi kon jo mujhe bata rahi ho, me toh ek anjaan hu na" Vi just replied sarcastically.

Shrey who just come after calling the doctor heard Virat accusing Ritsy and he couldn't stop himself from defending his bhabhi " Virat Bhai , bhabhi ki koi galti nahi hai, woh toh aapko bahut pehle se----------"

"Oooh i see....  sabko pata tha... except me...mujhe kiu bataoge...me hu hi kon..na hi koi important insaan...na kisi ka bestie ya partner in crime....na kisi ka bhai....na kisi ka idol...na kisi ka kuch…toh kyun batao ge.. anjaan logo ko bataya nahi jata..but please  i hope me itna toh Jaan sakta hu ki aur kisko pata tha mere sivay..ab me itna paraya ho gya hu. I hope you don't mind RITIKA." Virat said, throwing accusatory glances at all the individuals standing there and finally coming to rest at Ritsy and he just finally broke down.

Ritsy seeing him break down like that engulf him in a hug... saying multiple sorries and sweet nothing to calm him down.

In meantime even doctor came out after checking Rohit.

Rishabh who was watching doctor check Rohit through small glass window asked doctor as soon as he was out " how's bhaiyaa doctor....why did his heart monitor went off ?"

Listening this Virat detangled himself  from hug and asked all panicked " how's he doctor.... please tell me my Ro is okay? "

" Calm down Mr Kohli , He is okay now and his heart rate is also stable....maybe due to conclusions he was getting flashes of some memories which triggered him to panic....he is sleeping again due to medicine effects but if same situation arise again then we will have to put him on sedatives and now please let him rest." Explained doctor and went from there.

Virat moved to look at Rohit's sleeping figure through glass window on door. Letting his tears flow once again, mumbling " I never did anything for you to drift this far from me , that you kept this secret from me....ek bar bolta toh i would have helped you and jinks...." Saying so he was about to again have break down when Ritika hugged him saying ' I'm sorry Vi... We will fix everything soon....please'

When she felt him little calm, she took him to the nearby private room with the rest following her. After a while making sure he was calm. Ritsy told him how 5 years ago suddenly one day Ro came home completely in broken state mumbling how Jinks was not believing him and how Jinks had thrown all the accusatory verbal things on him  , blaming Ro to be selfish who want all the glory and position for himself. She also told him about Shrey's theory that how he heard people saying that the rift didn't happen it was created between Ro and Ajju, because they want more power.

Then Shrey said " Yes Vi Bhai, the other day when I was going to hotel Gym, I heard some people speaking in hush hush voices that how they framed up Ro bhaiya and made Jinks Bhai hate him . The rift is a planned one. I don't know their motives exactly but one thing I could make out from their conversation is that they want to break our unity , our team bond , hamari team hamari ict ki ijjat and reputation kharab karna chate h and this started with Mumbai cricket association, since it's one of the biggest cricket association in India, and Jinks Bhai and Ro Bhai being the pillar in recent years and ofcourse big names too, they targeted them and through them they want to break our whole team , constant fight karwake , groups me bantke. " Stopping to see everyone's reaction, Vi was just gawking at him while Rish and Sky were having some eye to eye conversation while Ritika was just sitting calmly waiting for Shrey to finish, he again added " Bhai don't worry give me sometime i will have some more information real soon about these people and most importantly we need to tell dada about it , someone from the board is playing with the finance, doing embezzlement and Surya Bhai and Rishu , ik you guys know something more about this fight , much more than me , so instead of having this eye to eye conversation, it will be more good if you tell us what exactly happened. Ik you guys know what happened five years back that led to the current situation. So, please tell us if you actually want to help Ro bhaiya and Jinks bhaiya because you guys being silent and having this eye conversation would neither help us nor you."

Now , everyone's eyes are focused on the two,Sky and Rish , and these two were just glancing at each other contemplating whether to tell them the truth or not and Vi having had enough " SPEAK UP BOTH OF YOU, ITS ENOUGH OF YOUR EYE TALKS , I WANT AN EXPLANATION TO WHAT HAPPENED THAT DAY. WHY JASSI AND JINKS…YOU KNOW WHAT I MEAN , SO SPEAK UP SOON , OTHERWISE NO ONE WILL BE WORSE THAN ME " he said coldly in a loud voice.

With that Sky knew they can't hide anymore what happened,so he said to Rish " Rishu it's no use hiding now,it's only better ki they know what happened, only then they will be able to  help us and Ro Bhai won't have to suffer alone. Aaab bas boht ho gya , boht sehen kar liya Ro bhaiya ne jassi ke nafrat and Ajju Bhai ka… baas boht aab aur nahi , I can't see him suffering alone each day , it's high time they know the reality, boht Darr daar ke ji liye just to protect them aab aur nahi."

So, seeing Surya's agreeing,Rish started narrating the story , in the sequence of happening of the event , it was supposed to be a happy moment with Ro Bhai being extremely proud of what his childhood bestie has achieved and was going to achieve yet another milestone but one misunderstanding was enough to destroy every damn thing, how he so wished that they weren't part of MCA comittee, may be then their friendship would have survived , it wouldn't have reached a dead end like today it has . Rish even told them how when Ro tried to clear the misunderstanding, he was blackmailed that if he tried to find the reason or go into depth about how the misunderstanding occurred, he may lose his two favourite people forever . The blackmailers were telling him that they will harm Jinks bhai and Jassi if he doesn't stop investigating and today's incidents was just an example of how far they can go if Bhai doesn't stop investigating.

Just then they heard something failing and stood rooted to their place seeing the person standing there.

"I was so so wrong..i misunderstood him so much. He was just trying to protect me and what i did" he kept mumbling and broke down.

A little while ago
As Ritika took Virat to room and other three followed them. One person stood there just watching through glass window. After contempting with himself for while.... Looking around to check no doctor or nurse was around he entered inside.

First thing he did entering inside was hugging his bhaiyaa after 5 whole years... still making sure not to hurt him in anyway or wake him.

Once he was content with hug, he broke apart to see his bhaiya's face properly now....he gently cared this hair and forehead which was wrapped in bandaid.

" I'm sorry bhaiyaa.... I couldn't save you from falling when you didn't even think before running to save me.... and i just stood there watching you fall....but believe me.... i was just too shock to react or do anything.... I'm really sorry bhaiya. Rishabh is saying I didn't save you because I hate you...but how do I explain him bhaiya... even after showing that i hate you for last 5 years i still can't bring myself to get unlove  you.... how i still get that jealous feelings whenever I have seen you with that Rishabh for past 5 years....but i couldn't do anything about it... because i felt i have lost that right on you...the day when I chose to not listen you.... I don't know whether you were wrong or not but i know one thing.... me not trusting you has broken you so much still i behaved like ignorant kid.... And you still saved me today.... I don't deserve you bhaiya.... but...but don't worry i won't come here again...." Saying this when he was about to leave Rohit's room he saw Rishabh coming so he did one think he thought would be best was to hide and he hide inside room only.

Rishabh who had came to check on Rohit once again, saw him sleeping. He fondly cares his hair and sit beside Rohit and keeps his head on Rohit's chest....and Jass who was watching this from his hidden spot was burning in jealous, before his jealous self could get out of control he thought to leave.

But stopped in his tracks when he heard his bhaiya's voice " Rish baccha"

Meanwhile in the afternoon,

When Jinks came home...he found  his wife Radhu very stressed. He asked her what happened and she tried denying it and kept staring at her phone but when she couldn't take it anymore she dialed Shrey's number but not getting any response from the other side, her worriedness just increased by thousands of times . And in her tension she forgot that Jinks was home and ended up mumbling  " Bappa please Ro be okay...ye Shrey bhi call nahi pick kar raha hai pata nahi kya ho raha hoga waha pe…Ro thik toh h na..mai Devisha ke ghar jake pochu kya "

Jink's who was behind her , hear all this and ask " what did you say "

Seeing her husband and suddenly realising what she said,  she fumble out some nonsense only for Jinks to say " do i look a fool to you..  i have heard you well...what happened to Rohit and since when are you in contact with them and what has Shreyas connection in this "

Not able to hide things any more from her husband, she will finally tell him the truth that  how she met Ritsy and how they use to meet each other after school and one day Shrey saw them and heard their convo and how they were supposed to go and get Virat's help and them knowing about Rohit's accident and him being in hospital. Carefully ignoring the part that their rift was not accidental but carefully planned someone was behind it.

Oh hearing this , that his wife was meeting the person whom he despised so much , who in a way was the reason he lost trust in friendship, who betrayed his trust and his dear wife was in contact with that person's family when he made it absolutely clear to hear that she won't meet them again. He was visibly flustered, anger was quite evident on his face and without saying a word , he just took his car keys and left to go outside, Radhika tried to stop him but he turned a deaf ear to her pleas.
