___****____

Jinks had been noticing Rohit since he came to Melbourne but he never got his chance to confront him as Rohit was either out for extra practice and when he was in hotel Kids won't let them be alone and how can he miss Jassi, who has taken up on himself to stick with Rohit like leach...if Jassi is around alone means Rohit is either out for practice or sleeping...even when Rohit is spending time with others Jassi stay put by his side and that had irked Rish like anything they even argued to the point that Rohit had to interfere and take Rish out to get lunch. Both unaware that they will be soon regretting going out to even get food.

Just because some fan thought it was okay to post their pictures with some weird captions they were accused of breaking Bio Bubble protocols.
(Not gonna describe this incident in brief because i don't feel like remembering those news and also i changed who all went out )

Rohit and Rish had just returned with food takeout and were heading towards their room when they saw their Coach pacing and talking on call.

So Rohit told Rish to go ahead with food parcel and he will join them soon. He moved towards Coach who actioned him to wait so he moved aside and sat on sofa near balcony when he heard Virat's voice saying " Jinks why would you allow them to go out...."

He slide curtains bit to see Jinks on Video call with Virat.

" Vi...vo Rishu had argument with Jass over some time spending, so to cheer him up Ro took him out and vese bhi they just went to take parcel...so i don't know why they were seated in Restaurant in that photo or why that fan put such a caption " Jinks tried explaining calmly.

Rohit was lost as to what photo and caption they were talking about. He decided to check his Social Media for anything but remembered Jassi had taken his phone before leaving so he just decided to eavesdrop some more to understand what was the matter. He was so lost in his thoughts that he flinched when he heard Virat saying " Rish gussa hua toh Ro kuch aur tarike se maana nahi skta tha kya... Usko pata nahii kya ye Australian govt and media are behind us like anything...ye news kisne usko bataya nahii kya...abhi toh vo strict quarantine krkke aya toh usko pata toh hona chihye na ye rules sab....ye kya musibat Saar leke baitha hai ye...abhi vo akela nahii uske sath Rishu bhi surfer krega and vo fan ne toh alag se raita fila diya hai with that bill ka items usko bhi clean krna hoga "

Rohit was just rooted to his place listening to Virat's angry rant that he didn't notice Shastri standing beside him untill he shook him and called him saying " Ro...Rohit ..where are you lost boy "

" Huhh, Ravi Bhai...sorry what happened..." Asked Rohit coming out of his thoughts.

" Okay , Rohit I'll come to point ....please explain me why you both were sitting inside resturant when you said you're just going to pickup take away from restaurant and why did that fan who posted your picture wrote Rish hugged him because he paid your bill." Asked Ravi shastri

" What photo , who fan ?" Asked very confused Rohit.

Seeming him so confused shastri showed him his phone to see some post which made Rohit's eyes wide and he rubbed his hands on his face and said " we sat inside restaurant because it was raining a bit so we sat on waiting table near door and i don't know this guy...i paid our bill and if you want i can even show you proof that is my card transaction details...and i never let go Rishu anywhere out of my slight so he can't hug this guy ...it's fake."

Shastri was just looking at him....when Rohit again said " bhai you have to trust me on this...i can never play with Rishu or any other kids safety...we didn't even drink water they offered us... please bhai trust us... You know i came here to play this tests why will I try jeopardize that..." Rohit was ranting continuously that he didn't even realise that not only Jink who was on still call has joined them but also the rest of team.

It was when Jassi took hold of his hand he looked up to see everyone was standing surrounding them.

Watching everyone he turned towards Jass and asked " you trust me right..."

Jass just nodded his head as he was watching his bhaiya becoming vulnerable again, so he just took him in hug and whispered some comforting words which did it's trick and Rohit was calming down now....so they broke hug when they heard Shastri say " Ro i trust you boy and even team will trust you but this bloody Aussie won't and the conversation that i just had was with authorities and they said you and Rish will have to stay in isolation for 2 days...they were not ready to understand anything...i couldn't do much son other than decrease those 7 days to 2days."

Rohit nodded and said " Thanks Ravi Bhai for not only trusting us but also for standing up for us..."

" Bhai can we please stay together in penthouse... I don't want to be alone and also penthouse has 2 bedroom so if anyone comes to check on us we will be in our rooms so it won't be any issue " said Rish as he came and hugged Ro and whispered " Sorry bhaiya... because of me...all this happened "

" Sshh... nothing happened because of you...we will survive this too and come out stronger, won't we ? " Asked Rohit still in whisper.

Before Rish could say anything more , Jass pulled them apart and said " Rish already tum dono sath rahne wale ho 2 din ke liye...abhi ke liye toh chod de bhaiya ko "

" Aaye Jealous Jassi....one sec what did you say we are staying together for 2 days...that means Ravi Bhai you agreed" said Rish excited.

" Yes Rishabh...i agreed but remember stay inside your rooms from noon till evening so even if anyone visits...you will be safe." Said Ravi shastri.

*2 days later *

Rishabh and Rohit were out of isolation and back together with team after clearing all tests and formalities. But However much Rohit tried to seem okay he was failing badly at it.....not just his kiddo but even Jaddu and Jinks observed how he used to zoned out if they were sitting together or how he would be wide awake when either of them went to wake him up and whenever asked how he was awake so early there would be new reasons...they saw how tired he looked at times still they hardly caught him sleeping.

Jink's patience were just dripping whereas Jassi's restlessness and concern for his bhaiya just kept increasing each passing day and where else Jaddu was mostly confused seeing Rohit's state....he understood something was terribly wrong but didn't knew what exactly so deciding he will start keeping tabs on Rohit...he marched towards his room.

On other side Jinks finally decided he had enough, he will confront Ro or Jass ya both of them today only and Here Jass's concern levels were just increasing rapidly as he rarely left Ro alone but yesterday he had too as all young lot were having a sleepover and his bhaiya had told him to join others so against his will , he had to spent the night with all of them, leaving Rohit alone in his room ...so when he woke up first thing he thought was to check on his bhaiya so he ran towards Rohit's room when he was about to touch door knob he heard Jinks say " it's good you are here only...abhi muhje alag alag kuch pochne ki zarurat nahii hogii"

Confused jassi asked " what are talking about Bhai... What do you want to ask me??"

Jaddu who was also coming to check on Rohit since he hadn't seen him from last night.... heard Jink and Jassi and decided to eavesdrop bit to see if he can get any information .

" Jass don't you think...abhi Jada ho raha hai...I'm here to talk with Ro about his weird behaviour and to know what is happening with him lately " said Jink

" Wha....what weird behaviour of Ro bhaiya " asked Jass feigning as he didn't know anything.

" Jass that's enough...today I will not sit quietly until I get some answers from you or Ro." Said Jinks sternly and he tried opening the door only to find it locked.

He knocked but still there was no answer.... He turned towards Jass to say something but seeing his panick filled eyes he just said " don't worry Ro must be sleeping "

Jass tired nodding his head in understanding but his mind had already started showing him flashbacks of last time he had found Rohit's door locked and he literally Shivered at that memory and kept mumbling " Jass he is okay... nothing like last will happen...he has promised he won't do anything like that "

Jink's who was very close to Jass heard it all and asked " what are you talking about...what happened last time... what's going on... please tell me kiddo "

Jass was contemplating what to do...when his fear won and he said " I'll tell you...but first i need to know bhaiya is okay... please give me your master key "

Jink's just nodded and gave it to Jass and made a mental note to give a treat to Arya later...as if not for her losing their room key he wouldn't have gotten master key.

Jass with shivering hands opened the door and when he went inside he was greeted with his worst fear.

Jink's who had entered after him and Jaddu who had also joined them stood rooted to their place with the slight they witnessed.
