It has been three days since Bhuvi's arrival in the national team and certain  people were ready to bang their heads on the wall trying to decipher the bhuvirat bond.

Well, every single member in the team were trying to find what was this Bhuvirat connection?

"Yeh Bhuvii-Virat, Virat-Bhuvi, yeh Bhuvirat...Bhuvirat Kya hai??" Doing a round in all the team member and coaches mind.

No one could just make sense of those twos. The eye talks, completing each other's sentence and knowing what was in the other's mind was annoying the rest. Virat was clinging to Bhuvi like Betaal to Vikram.

And mummers of Black magic was going around the team. If you ask the current members of team it was always debatable who was clinging to him. But none of them could deny that their was something more to Bhuvirat.

And so a great investigation was being run by the prestigious members of ICT. A few more interested then other's to solve this mystery. Among this people, the top investigators and affected persons were: Detective Rohit Sharma, Detective Ajinkya Rahane, Detective Ravindra Jadeja and their Commanding officer, Chief Detective Mahendra Singh Dhoni.

Though presently, all of them were running their separate investigations and hatching separate drastic  plans to snatch a certain Kohli from a certain Kumar.

Let's start with what's going on with a certain Rohitaa Sharma of the team.

Rohit's pov:

It's quite late in night and I'm trying to sleep. The keyword being trying as no matter what I do, sleep seems to evade me all together. And it's the first time in ages that I couldn't seem to fall sleep. For sleep had always come naturally to me. I never had to try to fall asleep and now, even when I'm trying to sleep. I can't sleep.

And the main culprit for my condition is one Virat Kohli. Yes, my best friend is my culprit and sleep killer. God, I knew that guy hated my sleep but I didn't think he will go to such heights to make that happen.

Virat that traitor. He didn't even join us for our weekly horror movie marathon. He knew today was a marathon and he didn't come that idiot. Though, he messaged me that something came up with Bhuvi so he couldn't come but it's not fair. Not at all.

He knows us before Bhuvii. He started this get together tradition and he ditched it for that Kumar.

How could he? I'm his best friend. I should come before everyone else. Shouldn't I? Am I being too possessive of Virat?

Naah, their isn't a thing as too possessive of bestie and I've valid reasons to be angry.  I'm sharing my room with Jinksie boy, tonight. After the horror movie and even the horror movie didn't seem terrifying or interesting at all. Even the ghosts weren't scary enough for my ghost of a bestie was missing.

And I asked Jinks to stay in my room tonigh. I didn't want any ghost to kidnap him when he returned to his room after mid night and Virat was supposed to be here too. Virat was supposed to be here irritating me and Jinks during the whole course of the movie and then at the end demand to sleep in my room acting too tired.

He was supposed to claim the left side of bed as him while I claimed the right side and then poor Jinks would have glared both of us but taken the center of the bed grumbling and threatening us that one of these days, he is going to push both of us down from the bed.

It was supposed to be our friends together night and Virat ditched it for that Kumar. What so special in him anyway?

Virat had the best room facing the sea and all. But as soon as that Bhuvi came he persuaded Mahi Bhai to make Bhuvneshwar his roommate and Mahi Bhai being Mahi Bhai just fulfilled his wish. Just like that can't Bhai ever say no to him.

If he did then Jaddu, Jinks and I would be lounging in Virat's room right now, making plans for outting and fun. But no, right now Vi is all bewitched with that Bhuvi. Mahi bhai should have said no.

But If course how will Mahi Bhai say no to Virat when he was asking by making such cute faces that no one can say no to him. Git, he is totally an idiotic git with social servicing feeling. Was he the only person in the whole team to make a newcomer feel at home? No, na then why is that idiot acting like all noble git.

Here,I'm feeling like cursing and screaming quite loudly at that idiot but Jinks is sleeping and I don't want to wake him up. So, sighing I looked at Jinks one time and got up from the bed carefully not wanting to disturb Jinks.

I just couldn't sleep so there is no point in sitting here and the scene of Virat meeting the new boy keep coming over again and again in my mind.

Bhuvneshwar Kumar—the newbie. What's so special about him, huh? It's not even two days since his arrival here   and my best friend has drifted away from me.

Wait!!! Am I jealous? No, it can't be. Im worried yeah that's it. He is my best friend and I've all rights to worry for him and all. But form the past few days, it seems more like that he is the new comers best friend not mine. I guess, I should go for a walk or I'll definitely go mad thinking about Virat and that boy .

Though the boy is sweet...no, why I'm praising him? He is the one due to whom my bestie is not with me at the present moment. So fed up with my thoughts, I decided to go for a walk, yes I should go out and take in fresh air. It will do me some good and maybe I'll actually feed the Virat residing in my mind to some ghost out there or something.

Wandering aimlessly outside, I reached the terrace and for one moment there my heart was in my mouth. Glimpsing a silhouette near the edge of terrace. I almost had a heart attack well after watching a horror movie if you see a shadowy figure out of nowhere. You'll have a heart attack too. But getting my nerves under control I walked towards the edge to check what or who the shadowy figure really was? And to my utter relief the person standing leaning on the railingwas Mahi Bhai.

Mahi Bhai's pov-

I don't know why couldn't I sleep tonight. Something in the dynamics of Virat and Bhuvneshwar troubled me. Well, in normal circumstances I'll be very happy if any two youngsters of my team get along as well as Bhuvi and Virat.

But with Bhuvi and Virat something was prickling me like something was odd there. Virat and Bhuvi had hit off like a house on fire. Both of them thick and thieves and acting like their is some kind of Bhuvi and Virat detector fit inside them.

Bhuvi knew Virat's fav food. He knew when Virat was over-exhausting himself. He knew what incident affected Virat in what way? How will Virat react to what situation? He even said no to Virat's most deadly puppy eyes and his one glare was enough to make Virat give up on something.

And all this antics were bothering me more than I like to admit? I didn't know why though? Shouldn't I be happy that someone knew how to control and say no to Virat.

But no, I didn't like when Bhuvi called Virat idiot or they plotted schemes together and succeeded in the matches. They had their own odd tactics going in the field and Virat will always run to Bhuvi, assure him and help him up, hug him. They will talk in some code language with a knowing glint in their eyes and talk about things that didn't make sense.

" think it's KJo"

Mahi still didn't know why Virat said this to Bhuvi when the opposition batsmen seemed to get under Bhuvi's skin and how the next ball gifted them a wicket.

What's this KJo connection? And why Bhuvi had this totally angry glint in his eyes hearing Virat's words. There were so many questions in my mind and not enough answers.

Why both Bhuvi and Virat looked like angry gooses at the mention of Sanjay Manjekar or Sreenivasan for that matter. There was something mysterious between Bhuvi and Virat. The bond they share doesn't arise in a single day. It felt like they knew each other always. They didn't even need to look at each other to know what was the other doing.

It was all very curious and troubling me.

And that's why, I was standing quitely on the terrace thinking about Virat's closeness and the bond he share with the new comer. I didn't know why I was getting so offended with the whole thing? I don't know why it felt like something close to me is being snatched away from me?

I didn't know why I didn't like how Virat was so much comfortable around Bhuvneshwar.  I didn't know why they behaved as if they have known each other since ages. When I'm aware that they didn't, they weren't even in the same U-19 or IPl team. But why do I feel so odd seeing them together?

I was so  engrossed in my thoughts that I didn't even hear Rohit approach until he was leaning beside me.

"Ro, you scared me kiddo!!" I told him clutching my heart to put emphasis on my point. How his ghostly appearance scared me?

"You scared me first Bhai, " Ro retorted all innocently and I couldn't help but roll my eyes at him.

But what is Rohit doing on terrace at this time as far as I know him, he should be asleep.He loves his sleep more than anything else.

"Rohit you here at this time ??" I asked. Worried for him.

"Actually Bhai I couldn't sleep, so I thought I should take a walk " Rohit answered sheepishly.

Third person's pov-

As soon as Rohit said that he was unable to sleep. Mahi Bhai came forward and touched his forehead with the back of his hand. Checking his temperature and all.

"What??" Rohit asked Mahi bhai flabbergasted by his action.

Mahi bhai ignored Rohit's question and asked quite concerned.

"Are you alright Rohit? You feeling okay? You're not ill, are you? You not sleeping is a very concerning matter. "

"Bhai , kya aap bhi , I don't sleep much , aap bhi Cheeku ki tarah react kar rahe hogo" Rohit grumbled annoyed. Him not sleeping wasn't an earth shattering matter though Virat always reacted like it was.

Hearing Virat's name Mahi's expression changed a bit but he soon masked it but this thing didn't go unnoticed by Rohit. He thought to ask about this later .

"I didn't say anything wrong Ro, the whole team knows how much love your sleep. Now, tell me what happened?" Mahi asked Ro gently.

Rohit who has seen Mahi's change of expression thought to not discuss Virat  (by this he mean rant on Bhuvirat) right now and replied with a simple "actually Bhai, I'm hungry "

Hearing Rohit's answer. Mahi Bhai couldn't help but smile while thinking  yeh nhi sudhrega. Shaking his head, Mahi Bhai took Ro to his room and made Rohit eat biscuits because Raat ke 1 baje unhe aur kya milega . After eating and complaining about tasteless biscuits. Rohit fell asleep on Mahi bhai's lap in Mahi Bhai's room.

The next day,

At the breakfast table like it has been going since the last two days.
Virat sat with Bhuvi, complaining loudly about Bhuvi's breakfast choices while Bhuvi ignored Virat all together and continued reading his book. And Virat seemed to complain about the "stupid book" in his words too.

Watching this scene, Rohit-Jinks and Jaddu scowled. They didn't like this scene at all. Mentally thinking they needed to do something soon. They didn't like it at all that whole day , Virat was either with Bhuvi or brooding.

It felt like something was wrong but they didn't know what? Or how to help?

And this friendship between Bhuvirat was affecting three more person apart from Rohit and they were Jinks, Mahi Bhai and our very own Jaddu.

Just as Virat was hanging out with Bhuvi. Jiinks, Rohit and Jaddu hanged out together. And Mahi joined them every now and then.
Today was one of those days when Mahi bhai was in their company. Jaddu was telling quite a hilarious Jamnagar ki story to his friends.

Hearing Jaddu's stories , Mahi Bhai and the others knew Jaddu knew Virat from ages. And today, Mahi Bhai couldn't help but ask Jaddu "you and Virat are such great friends but how come you never mentioned about Bhuvi "

"Because I don't know Bhuvi. I have meet him first time here and I don't know how Virat knows him. I used to think ki me hi uska best friend Hu but this Bhuvi person has proved me wrong, " Jaddu complained quite grumpily.

"oh, " Mahi bhai exclaimed thoughtfully. Even Ro and Jinks looked thoughtful as they turned and analyzed Bhuvirat again quite keenly.

Mahi's pov-

So according to Jaddu, Bhuvi is not his friend then Virat usse kaise janta h aur itna comfortable h? And above all why is this affecting me?
