Ch 7- Sibling love
"Spiderman ki aulaad paagal hai kya? (Spiderman's Son, are you mad?)"
Aman yelled causing Karan to flinch back taking his phone away from his ear. He was expecting some reaction like this from Aman after letting him know how he entered his room earlier in the afternoon.
He didn't wanna discuss about it at least on call that too before sleeping but he couldn't do anything as Aman wasn't ready to listen anything and demanded him to tell that right that moment. Giving up he explained him the entire stunt only to get an ear piercing yell.
Karan thought he could escape listening to Aman's lecture keeping the phone far from his ears but finding his voice audible enough even from a distance he shook his head shying pressing his phone back into his ear.
"I know that there's no value of yours and that you cannot be sold even for 10 rupees but that doesn't mean you will put your life into risk right!!"
Karan rolled his eyes tossing his phone on bed before falling flat on his back, listening to Aman speak further uninterestedly.
"I understand you are not even worth a penny, and that you are worthless, meritless and"
As Aman thought over more synonyms he was interrupted by who asked in a bored voice
"Ho gaya? Aur kuch (Are you done? Anything more)"
"Han aur kuch yaad bhi nai aa raha (Yeah, I can't remember anything more)"
"Chal nikal phir, bye (Get lost then, bye)"
"Sun! (Listen)"
Karan ceased himself from disconnecting the call listening to Aman who finally sounded serious after all that messing around. A smile made his way on his face listening to his words
"Aisa phir se mat karna samjha, tereko kuch ho jata toh? (On a serious note don't do this again! What if something would have happened to you?)"
"Jyada se jyada kya ho jata., mai.. (Max to max what could have happened, I would have..)"
"Chup!!! Bilkul chup!! (Shut up!! Just shut up!!)", Aman interrupted Karan from saying anything further.
"Ek baar bol diya na nai karna aisa, matlab nai karna! jaa so jaa.. good night (Once I told you not to do it right!! Just don't do it! Go sleep, good night)"
Said Aman hanging the call, leaving Karan all smiles. He didn't wanna make him angry, but at the same time he didn't wanna miss a chance to get his inner self out which cared. The loving, caring one which he keeps hidden behind his arrogant, emotionless face.
Shaking his head Karan smiled keeping the phone on the table beside the bed, before lying down comfortably on his back. Finally he had leisure to relax after an eventful busy day courtesy Aman.
A small smile tucked his lips as his mind recalled Aman's few last words before hanging the call making him look back at his phone. Dragging himself near he picked up his phone and typed a quick message to Aman before shrugging himself off to sleep.
"Good night😘"
Aman chuckled at the emoji before mumbling out in deep low voice "Good night bhai", a content feeling enveloping his heart as he looked blankly at the screen for a while.
"Thank you for always being there for me", his thumb caressed gently over Karan's message. A heartfelt smile adorning his lips as he reminisced all the events of the past where Karan has been the only constant, be it sad or glad. He was there for him even when he believed no one would be.
Just like today when he had locked himself inside his room, he didn't expect Karan to break in into his room from the balcony. Just by seeing him there he felt content on his own, his presence soothing his pain by a great extent.
Sometimes what we all need is someone to just stay by us, stay not to advice but listen to us, feel our pain like their own, soothe it not by words but by actions.
Karan was one such person in Aman's life who had been in his lows and highs, and if today Aman is smiling naturally it's all due to him. Even the day he felt too broken from inside, his presence was enough to calm Aman down.
A tear ran down Aman's cheek falling right on the screen bringing him out of his trance. Shaking his head, Aman placed his phone on the table before pulling blanket over him drowsing to sleep.
***
"Good morning"
"Good night", Karan murmured in a sleepy voice shrugging to the other side of the bed to where his mom stood trying to wake him up.
"What do you mean by good night? It's Sunday doesn't mean you sleep whole day, it's 9 already"
His mom spoke pulling aside the curtains of the window making the bright sunlight enter the room hurting karan's closed eyes.
"It's just 9", Karan groaned pulling the blanket over his head trying to prevent the bright sunlight from entering his eyes but before he could his mom pulled the blanket off him
"Enough of sleeping, get up"
Karan groaned frowning deeper but even he knew it was of no use now as he couldn't sleep any further not after the windows are open and the fan is turned off.
"Go brush your teeth, breakfast's ready, it's your favourite potato dish, hurry up"
His mom walked out of his room, he was sat on his bed lazily which disappeared listening to the latter part and he quickly entered the washroom getting freshened up.
Getting done with his morning chores and having his favourite dish for breakfast slowly, he left with his bag for Aman's house not before informing his mom that he will be back by night.
She didn't question him about where he's gonna have his lunch or anything as such, being well aware of his Sunday routine. She just nodded handing him over his pocket money for the day. She knew that he was going to Aman's house as every Sunday either he goes there or Aman comes their house.
They spend the entire day enjoying with each other starting from practicing maths, to playing board games like carrom, UNO, Ludo, Monopoly and many more, to even eating lunch together, and then by afternoon leaving to Tanu's house spending the remaining time with her.
A routine which has not changed from years.
Reaching Aman's house Karan stood ringing the bell, after waiting there for some time the door was finally opened by Aman.
But before Karan could say or react anything, Aman shut the door on his face gesturing him to leave saying
"Change nai hai, aage ja (I haven't got change, go ahead)"
Shutting the door close on karan's face, Aman smiled turning back looking at karan from the peephole of the door. Watching his confused face he couldn't control his laughter and stood laughing, only if he had any idea what was coming.
"Change?" Karan repeated feeling confused slowly processing Aman's words. His eyes narrowed and his eyebrows raised finally getting that Aman mocked him treating him like a beggar. He wanted to return knowing well if he returns Aman will come behind him, but stopped as a better idea popped up in his mind.
"Kanishka....
"Kanishkaaaaaa...
"Come out Kanishkaaaa..."
"Kan......"
Before he could yell anything further Aman quickly unlocked the door and pressed his hand over his mouth shushing him.
"Pagal hai kya (Are you insane?)"
Aman spoke removing his hand from Karan's face, Karan smirked saying
"Ab kya hua, ab bol na (Now what happened, Say now?)"
Aman gave him a stare, their attention was caught by Aman's mom who spoke making her way out of the kitchen wiping her hands with the towel in her hand
"Karan tum ho kya beta (Karan is it you son?)"
"Haan aunty mai hi hun (Yeah aunty, it's me)"
Karan said peeking inside slightly, smiling at Aman's mom who smiled back in response calling him in returning back inside the kitchen. Listening to which Karan nodded following her behind yelling
"Aaya aunty (Coming aunty)"
Karan entered inside leaving both, his shoes and Aman outside. As no one called him in, Aman doubted for a momen raising his hand up if it was his home or Karan's. His attention was grabbed by Karan who yelled from inside
"Aa ja, apna hi ghar samajh (Come in, think it as your own home)"
Aman raised his eyebrows listening to him. He frowned but the right next moment it got replaced by a content grin as he shook his head lightly entering inside closing the door behind him. At last who was he to stop karan from entering inside his own home?
If this home belonged to him, then obviously it did to Karan too. And not just home, everything else which he possessed, Karan had righteous of rights on it which even he wouldn't deny. And doesn't that how friendship goes?
There doesn't exist the word 'mine', neither exists "I" and "You" but what exists is "we". Everything yours is your friend's, and everything his/her is yours (until you don't take it 'the wrong way').
***
"Abe ooo, pagal hai kya (Hey you!? Are you mad?)"
Aman yelled breaking Karan's trance taking him by a surprise. He gave him an "what's wrong?" kind of look, looking startled at Aman who gave him a weird look gazing down at him.
Finding his gaze pointed down Karan panicked looking down checking his pants but finding nothing wrong with his pants he took a breathe of relief. Watching him look at his pant instead of the blunder he had done on the table Aman yelled pointing his finger towards his pant and then the table
"Abe ooo udhar kya dekh raha hai, idhar dekh (Hello mister what are you looking there, look here)"
Karan raised his head listening to him and following Aman's finger he bit his tongue facepalming himself mentally looking at what he had done being lost in his imagination.
"I know you are a true believer of save paper save earth, but that doesn't mean you start writing on the table"
Aman mocked karan shaking his head looking at the table where Karan had written from his pen.
Karan searched for a reply scratching the back of his throat. In no circumstances he could tell that the song "Blue Eyes" playing on his phone, reminded him of those of Aditi's, making him go lose in their imagination.
In his reincarnation of the incident which happened just some days back when he tripped down with her, he didn't realise when he started scribbling and writing things on the table.
"Pehle se hi sada hua hai ye table kya pharak padta hai (This table is already spoiled, does it even matter?)"
Karan said covering his embarrassment causing Aman to roll eyes at his comment.
"Haan tu aur ganda kar de (Yeah, yeah, you spoil it even further)"
"Chodh na (Leave it)"
"Chal maaf kia (Okay I forgive you)"
Aman said smirking passing his hand through his hair, Karan rolled eyes before grinning wide saying
"Maaf bhi aur saaf bhi right? (Forgiving and cleaning as well right?)"
Aman looked at karan with a sullen gaze who started laughing watching which Aman chuckled shaking his head.
They were done practicing, so closing their books they played carrom for some time before going down for lunch.
***
"Tu bol (You tell)"
"Nai tu bol (No, you tell)"
"Ja bol ab (Go tell now)", Karan said pushing Aman to the kitchen, Aman bit his tongue finding his mom look at him with a questioning look. Moving his hand over the back of his neck Aman said
"Ek tiffin pack kar do na mummy (Mummy, can you pack one tiffin please)"
"Kyun? Kiske liye? (Why? For whom?)"
Questioned his mom, Aman turned his head back slightly looking at karan signalling him from his eyes to suggest him some reason but finding him look as clue less as him as he shrugged his shoulders, Aman turned looking at his mom murmuring
"Woh actually..", Aman ceased thinking what he could possibly tell He wanted the tiffin for Tanu as they didn't had enough money to buy her both today's dinner and lunch, and besides the food cooked was her favourite. He came out of his trance listening to his mom
"Bol! (Tell!)"
"Wo actually aap itna tasty khana banate ho na, toh dost ne call karke tiffin mangwaya hai (Actually you cook so delicious food, that my friend called me asking me to bring a tiffin for him)"
Aman voiced out whatever he could think of, minding the least how silly it sounded or if it was even trustworthy. His mom gave him a weird look and so did karan facepalming himself muttering to himself
"Waaahh, waaah, kya dimag lagaya hai (Wow, wooow, what wonderful use of your brain!!)"
"Haan haan bas, ruk deti hun (Okay okay enough, Let me give wait)"
His mom said turning to pack the tiffin, taking Karan by a surprise. He couldn't believe she agreed that easily to such a stupid reason given by Aman without any arguments. Aman smirked proudly looking at Karan, his look speaking his words out "See I'm so smart"
Karan rolled his eyes, watching Aman smirk proudly looking at him. His facial expressions speaking his words out ''how was my magic??", Looking at which Karan shook his head.
Taking the tiffin, they left for Tanu's house on their cycles to spend the remaining time with her, only if they had any idea a challenge was awaiting them there.
***
"Dance?"
"Yeah dance"
"I don't know even know d of dance"
"It's ok, do whatever you feel like"
"I don't know any step"
"I don't know I wanna see you dancing"
"What is this now?"
"I don't know", Tanu wailed shaking her head. Karan pressed his lips tightly, looking at her wail like a baby. He was melting with every passing second, finally giving up he shook his head looking to agree but was interrupted by Aman
"Are, ab maan bhi ja (Agree now at least)"
Karan turned his head looking at Aman who smirked saying it. Watching him stand smirking passing his hand through his hair, Karan raised his eyebrows.
"Bade maze aa raha hai na tereko, ruk tujhe aur maze dilata hun (You are at finding a lot of fun in this right, wait let me show you what the real fun is)"
Karan shook his head mentally speaking to himself before turning back looking at Tanu
"I will dance"
Before he could tell anything, Tanu jumped in excitement, her feet dancing in joy already which soon brought to an end
"Wait wait wait listen! I will dance but only on one condition"
"What is that?"
"That is Aman should dance with us too"
"Abe oooooo, mai kyun (Why me??)", Aman yelled startled. The smirk on his face long vanished, replaced with a frown, the one of horror.
"Surely, he will"
"Mai koi dance waance nai kar ra (I'm not doing any dance)"
Aman shook his head as well as his hand at Tanu, who frowned listening to him before turning on her cutest puppy look showering him with her pleases.
Her twinkling eyes blinking innocently as she flashed him her cutest seraphic smile saying please in a melodious melting tone. A look which no one could deny, And aman knew it exactly.
He knew it wouldn't take her long to convince him if he looks at her and hence he had his eyes closed and head turned towards the other direction, but how could he control himself from not smiling listening to her voice.
"Pliiiiiiise bhaiya... Piiilllliiizzzzz... Pilllliiiiesssssss na baaaiyaaaaa"
No matter how much he tried he couldn't control himself from chuckling listening to her baby stuttering voice. As he chuckled, Tanu grinned clapped jumping in joy making Aman groan.
Realizing there is no other way of escaping left Aman opened his eyes turning back to karan giving him an "I'm gonna kill you" kind of look who grinned flashing him his entire set of teeth in response.
"Ok I will play the song, do any step you like"
Said Tanu grinning taking her phone selecting the most weirdest song anyone could choose
Balam pichkari
Jo tune mujhe maari
Toh seedhi saadhi chori, sarabi ho gayi.....
Haa jeans pahen ke
Jo tune maara thumka..
Toh lattoo padosan ki bhabhi ho gayi.....
"What the hell are you even playing?"
Karan and Aman yelled at Tanu who frowned pausing the song saying
"I thought you would like it"
"Seriously??", Aman said raising his eyebrows at her, making her frown tossing her phone towards Aman who caught it fumbling but somehow managed to hold on
"Okay then choose yourself your song"
Tanu said making a quick move with her lips, making Karan and Aman look at each other shrugging their shoulders. After a small heated argument over the decision of the song and then the steps they finally handed over the phone to Tanu asking her to play the selected song after a count of three.
"Okay.. 1.. 2.. 3..."
Tanu could see them getting ready as she counted. They were stood across each other maintaining an one hand distance, their hands crossed and legs wide as they waited for her to start the song.
She could understand from their position, which move were they trying to copy and also she had to not look at the phone to guess which song was it. She had her lips tightly pressed against each other not wanting to laugh out already at their nervous shy faces, she muttered a 'start' turning on the song saving her laughter for the moment being.
oppan gangnam style..
*Tune*
gangnam style..
Op.. Op... Op... Op...
oppan gangnam style..
*Tune*
gangnam style..
Op.. Op... Op... Op...
oppan gangnam style..
Tanu could not control her laughter anymore, falling down on the bed laughing watching Karan and Aman reciprocating the imaginary horse riding dance moves of shaking their hands up and down, then raising one hand up encircling around in the air with synchronisation of their leg.
Looking at her laugh while rolling on the bed having her hand on her stomach they stopped dancing giving her an "Enough!" kind of look. Finding their sullen gaze on her Tanu controlled herself from laughing getting up but only to fall back again on bed laughing getting reminded of their moves.
"It wasn't that funny okay!"
"It surely wasn't, but the way you guys lip synced that "op.. op.." while looking at each other was too hilarious"
Tanu said enacting how they did it laughing even harder causing them to bend their heads out of embarrassment. Looking at each other from the corner of their eyes, a wide smile tucked their lips and the sole reason being Tanu.
They would surely get angry if someone else would be laughing on them at this point, but it was Tanu, the one they loved the most. And only they knew that the move she just spoke about was intentional and pre planned by them just to make that move more funnier and to make her laugh.
If someone existed in their lives for whom they were even ready to get themselves embarrassed just to see that one smile, then that was Tanu. Just that selfish their love was.
"Bahut funny tha na (That was very funny right)"
Said simultaneously both Karan and Aman taking seat beside Tanu who looked at them suspiciously as both of them spoke again
"Ab aur funny hoga (Now it will be more funny)"
Before Tanu could understand, karan and Aman started tickling her from both the sides making her giggle and laugh, she cried out asking them to leave her but they were in mood to listen, tickling and laughing along with her. They didn't stop until tears started flowing from their eyes out of laughing.
Huffing, going exhausted of laughing they could hear each other breathes, as they were all lying down on bed next to each other looking up at the ceiling, a tired but yet satisfying smile playing on their lips which only widened when both Karan and Aman turned looking at Tanu who was slept in between smiling wide at them.
Aman tickled Tanu again smirking at her, he wouldn't have dared only if he had any idea of what was coming.
Getting up Tanu grabbed the pillow and before Aman could realize anything the pillow landed right on his face startling him completely. Trying to dodge the pillow which approached too fast for him to react, he fell down the bed landing right on his bum.
A light yell escaped his mouth as he rubbed his hand over his hurt back listening and watching which both Tanu and karan started laughing.
But it didn't take long for Karan's smile to disappear as the pillow landed on his face next, making him fall too.
Watching both of them Tanu couldn't control herself from laughing, causing them to frown and then raise eyebrows at her. Getting up quickly signalling each other from their eyes they grabbed the pillow in their hands jumping up on bed before starting to attack Tanu with it.
Hitting each other with pillows, laughing at every miss and every hit, they didn't realize when an hour passed away.
They were all lying down straight on the bed, when suddenly Tanu got up smiling wide saying
"Let's dance at the same song again!"
"So that you make fun of us again??"
"No, I will dance with you guys this time"
"You will?", Asked Karan giving her words a thought. Watching her nod and look really excited about it he turned looking at Aman with an "What do you say" kind of look who shrugged his shoulders raising his hand gesturing "I don't have any problem with that"
"Okay let's do it then"
Said Karan jumping down making Tanu clap in excitement. Aman shook his head watching her getting down the bed.
"What are you doing?"
Asked Karan to Tanu who seemed to be doing something with her phone.
"I was keeping the phone in such a way that it records every move of ours so that we can watch and enjoy it later"
Tanu said returning back having placed the phone in the position. She knew they would argue and hence before they could she started the music in Karan's phone saying
"Okay okay.. 1.. 2.. 3.. start"
oppan gangnam style..
*Tune*
gangnam style..
Op.. Op... Op... Op...
oppan gangnam style..
*Tune*
gangnam style..
Op.. Op... Op... Op...
oppan gangnam style..
Tanu switched on the music walking in between Karan and Aman starting with the step, as Aman and Karan stood still watching her do the step she gave them a curious look smiling wide at them making them shake their head gently before joining her in for the dance.
The three were dancing and singing the song aloud laughing looking at each other doing the only step they knew in the whole song, but they cared the least as they were enjoying this moment more than their dance move, and the camera was doing the rest, capturing this beautiful moment for them.
