As they reached the tree the old grandpa told about, they were mesmerized by the view.

It was a huge tree, with a river flowing near by and there was a huge guava tree next to it.

And few kids were playing hide and seek. A few were climb the guava tree sitting on the branch and eating the fruit.

Rohit and Virat sat down on the banks of the river seeping there feet in the cool water talking about everything..

Soon one kid got small toffees, they shared it among themselves happily eating it. They were Playing in the mud, making castle which would break with a gush of wind. But the kids never got disheartened by it. They kept trying it again and again.

Rohit- ye bachpan kitna mast hai na vi

Virat- ofcourse yaar, jo maza bacche bankar kiyana hum ne wo kabhi nahi karsakte..

Rohit- chal sab pareshan ho jayenge

Virat- chal peheli kuch pics tho click karle! Mera phone se obviously kyu ki tu appna phone laya tho nahi

Virat touched the branch as Rohit tried clicking his candid pics..

Virat- yaar agar ye ped kuch desaktha hai na, then muje mera bacchpan lota de yaar.. I want to be a kid again, I want to be purely happy. I want that I don't care attitude yaar, muje wo masumiyat wapas chaiye

Rohit kept his hands on his bestie's shoulder.

Rohit- chal na yaar kya tu bhi senti ho raha hai

They went back to the hotel..

Bhiyaaaa screaming a group of over grown kids jumped on them.

Mahi- tune diet change kardiya kya?!

Virat- nahi tho, kyu?

Mahi- I thought you put on

Mahi- accha let me fresh up atleast

By dinner time everyone felt a slight change in virat! His appearance, he looked a little bulk and Chubby?!

But they ignored it thinking it was just there imagination!

As always virat slept with mahi bhai on his lap, while bhai was listening to him ruffling his hair, virat kept telling him about day's happings..

Virat- pata hai aaj na hum ek tree ke paas gaye the

Mahi- accha

Virat- aur pata hai waha kitna shanti hai, hame ek baar na wha jana chahiye

Mahi- bilkul jayenge

Virat sat up and made mahi bhai lay down on the bed. He slowly pat his mahi bhai to sleep.

Mahi- me baccha nahi hu cheeku

Virat- shh, I know you are tired so sleep .

Mahi bhai slept smiling at his suddenly grown up kiddo!

Virat layed beside his mahi bhai hugging him.

Morning:;

Mahi bhai woke up a little late due to the jetlag, and they didn't have practice today as well.

He checked if cheeku was around somewhere but he was not there but his phone was lying on the bed side table.

Mahi bhai couldn't help but feel sick about virat still being careless!

Thinking Virat might be in the gym he went to fresh up.

The team gathered in mahirat's room.

Mahi- cheeku kaha hai?

Rohit- yahi tho soya tha na bhai wo?

Mahi- ha but I didn't see him for morning?

Jaddu- I'll check gym area!

Jinks- I'll ask the hotel management

Jassi- aaj cheeku bhiya ka cheat day tha na, I brought his favourite cup cakes!

Rohit- aree virat nahi tho kya huva me huna, give it to me

Jassi- nahi ro bhiya, this is for vi bhai
