Sevya stood at end of the hall smiling at the girl who stole her husband. She heard the girl giggle to whatever Keyur was saying. He carefully made her stand and ushered his daughter to walk. She smiled widely wobbling in her steps trying to reach Sevya. With loud shrill Sevya hugged their daughter.

"That's not fair! I want to walk too!." Keyur heard Veer shout from his brothers room. Sevya gave him a look indicating he needs to go save his brother. Walking to Adwait's floor he smiled at Srida who looked at him with apologetic smile.

"What is it that our dear Veer is crying about?." Keyur asked as the little one cried with heavy tears. Radha sat beside him with her few months old son. Adwait was busy holding his son close to him.

"Why can't boys cry?." Veer asked innocently. Everyone in the room were shocked for a moment. They didn't expect he's going to say something so deep at a young age.

" Well who told boys can't cry?." Radha asked.

"My friends said boys shouldn't cry." He spoke in low tone.

"I asked you something little man?." Keyur came to Adwait's rescue who only thanked him with eyes.

"Doctor said I broke my ankle. I couldn't cry in school as they will make fun of me. I..I am in pain. I want to walk!" He loudly spoke crying worst than a baby.

"Veer, everyone has right to cry when they feel sad or in pain or generally want to express their emotions. It's form of expressing yourself,  just like how you laugh out loud right?." He looked at Adwait who was scratching his neck. He might have given birth to male version of his wife.

"Is it?." He asked with hopeful eyes. Radha smiled at him.

"Look,  you can cry but tell me who's going to play with my son? Shall I ask Rayaan or maybe your dad?." Radha asked as he excitedly crawled towards the little one. Adwait and Keyur left them alone walking back to the office where Rayaan has asked them to meet.

******************
"Bhai?." Adwait called out surprised that he's sleeping sitting on sofa. With a jerk Rayaan got up.

"You seem to be sleeping a lot." Keyur commented teasing him.

"Yes, my son likes to be active at night. " Rayaan said yawning big.  Other two snickered looking at his elder one. Who knew one would be wrapped up totally by their child? Keyur sat beside Rayaan looking at documents they decided to talk about. Adwait jumped around like a kid while they both discussed bussiness.

"So...let's go?." Keyur asked Adwait who nodded his head like Veer.

"Wait up!. Do you think it's good idea? I mean children are at young age. Won't they feel discomfort?." Rayaan asked unsure about this. Adwait smiled at his brothers concern.

" They have 6 pairs of hands to help them. We are pro at bathing, making them eat and washing their body after huge release of shit. Adwait spoke lost in thoughts.  Keyur cleared his throat to catch his attention.

"Now, Bhai, just focus on what we wanted to do." Keyur suggested.

******************
All three ladies sat on sofa. Their kids sleeping soundly in their rooms. Srida squirmed in her seat worries about Veer who had emotional blast. Sevya placed her hand on Srida in a comforting way.

"So...Bhabi. is it OK if I start?." Adwait asked. Radha and Sevya nodded their head.

"Srida, you are younger than all of us, suffered quite a bit more for your age. I know this is not what we planned for but what I am about to say is something I always wanted you to have." Adwait started looking at his wife. Srida nodded her head like a eager kid waiting for toffee.

"My company "Sole Up" raised enough funds for our institution to run. We are fortunate enough to educated women over these few years and I am sorry if I ever couldn't stand with you. Srida, my company Sole Up is willing to take over the Institution and make you as head of the company. That means you gotta me Ceo manage work." Adwait heaved a sigh at the end. Srida sat still not able to understand what he meant.

" You mean to say, I.. Will run your company as well as institution?." She questioned to which Adwait nodded his head.

" I took up opportunity in this company so that in future you can hold on to it. Never given you any marriage gift so, I am now." He spoke in low tone.

"What will you do then? I mean its your sole company." Srida asked surprised at his stance.

"That I am going to let you know soon." He answered. Srida jumped in her place not able to contain her excitement. Hugging her husband she jumped along with him. Sevya laughed her childishness. Keyur walked to her knelt down near his wife and held her hand. Sevya looked at him smiling at Srida who was still jumping.

"Sevya." He called for her attention.

"Yeah?." She asked. He gave her an envelope which made Sevya frown.

"Don't tell me you are divorcing me?." She joked opening it.  Keyur only chuckled at her response. Typical wife. Sevya read the paper ten times with eyes bulging out of her sockets.

"What????!." She shouted falling on him.  Radha and Rayaan looked at their brothers tackled by their wives.

"You fucking bought this?." She shouted.

"Yes baby. Language." He said kissing her. Srida and Adwait now waited for Sevya to reveal his surprise.

"Keyur got me this!." Sevya shouted showing them the card which he printed. Adwait winked at his brother.

"Sevya, for the persistence and dedication towards our relationship, I thought you need to enjoy the life which you imagined. I know you love culinary skills, cooking videos and eating different food. This food truck has good name, it got great reviews at Porbandar, now you are going to be heading Jodhpur branch. Slowly with your help of course we are going to extend this bussiness." Keyur declared. Radha stood beside Rayaan holding his hand. He smiled down at her. If moving forward was the goal they would have done it long back like a happy family but few things stopped people from seeing their happiness.

*******************
Radha sat on her bed looking at their son who's sleeping peacefully on his small cot. It's been 1 year 5 months since the time she gave birth to their son Yash. Sevya named her daughter Veda who is very calm and cute just like Keyur. Yash on the other hand has innocence like her but stubborn like his dad.

"What are you thinking?." Rayaan asked kissing her. She smiled at him.  All these years,  she still loves his kisses.

"I was thinking what if your parents were sane? We would have seen this growth in our family long back right?." Radha questioned. Rayaan stiffened for a moment.

"Don't say that." He uttered tensed about something. Radha noticed change in his tone.

"I visited them yesterday." He admitted to her finally. Radha was quiet. She wanted to give him space to talk.

"Radha, I met them. Showed them yash photo. Told them how happy we are. Keyur and Adwait have me, I before you had my parents. Although with time I lost interest in sharing my life but..I am sorry." Rayaan spoke looking away.

"Did they like our son's photo?." Radha questioned smiling at him. 

"Rayaan..it's ok. I know you are there for us. We all miss our parents. It takes great heart to detach from that relationship especially when they are alive." Radha spoke turning his face towards her.

" That's not the only reason I visited them." Rayaan continued.

"I am transferring my property on your name." He said looking at his son.

"What do you mean by that? I thought what's yours is mine and vice versa." Radha Replied.

" Radha, my love. I have gone through enough. The company am running will be under my name. Rest all I acquired from my parents and ours is yours. You are lucky in my life, my only source of happiness and positivity. I feel if it's on your name I will have less problem." He spoke as Radha looked up.  She still couldn't understand why he's doing this?

" I sense something else here." Radha said getting up from their bed. Walking into their balcony she looked up at sky, hoping he's not having any kind of illness.

" Radha..."  Rayaan called out.

" Not a word " She hissed looking at him.

" Radha ok fine. Remember Srida and Keyur planned a place for us as gift? She got sketches done by my brother for the plot just outside this city?." Rayaan spoke holding her hands.

" We built it. Turned that place into tourism. A luxury hotel. I have written that on your name. You and my two brothers are owners of it." Rayaan spoke.

" When did I sign those documents?." She asked him quite surprised.

" Well, I made sure you did. That's the surprise which we wanted to reveal tomorrow morning by taking you three there. Since Srida and Sevya are having their share of bussiness on their name. I took decision to keep you in lead at the hotel. One where you will handle finances and look after whatever is needed along with my brothers." Rayaan revealed.

" You are bad at lying." She laughed hitting his arm.

" And you are good at spoiling my surprise." He countered.

********************
Sevya and Srida looked at it with awe. Keyur smiled at his wife who couldn't believe they were able to build something so beautiful on such a small area. Although it's large compared to their own house but to have so many amenities and spacious look one needs to have acres of land.

" Keyur designed it bhabi." Adwait spoke as she winked at him.  Rayaan held her hand carefully looking around. Although he revealed his plan to his wife. One thing he could save was the surprise he planned here at the hotel. People gathered around them in circle.

" Good morning everyone. This is my wife Radha- owner of this palace and the one whom you will report to. " He announced making Radha gasp. Keyur and Adwait smiled at Radha who was dumbfounded.

" What about these two?." She whispered to Rayaan.

" Well bhabi  that was part of the plan. We were never in picture." Srida answered winking at Keyur who fist bumped her.

" Love, you deserve this. Srida wanted us to enjoy our lives. I want YOU to enjoy the life. " Rayaan spoke.

" Han bhabi. For all those sacrifices, sleep less nights, dreadful days, when peace was far away from us but you stood like a rock along with us. For raising our kids as your own, we all want you to head this palace. This place needs a person like you to run it flawlessly. Moreover I will be handling culinary department." Sevya spoke as tears formed in Radhas eyes.

" Thank you so much. Although you don't need to show any gestures to thank me, I like to lead this. It's a change from my office work and boring life at his place." Radha smiled looking at Rayaan who just laughed it off.

A new chapter of life has started for all three couples as they progress into a world where the rules are bent to their needs and ethics are held high for their own needs. Love between the brothers was silent yet deadly even all these years. They were taught bullets are the solution to live happily but the women of their life taught them love and loyalty towards your own work sharper than bullets and help us to keep healthy boundaries with others.

" Bhai? Can I inform something now?." Srida excitedly asked as Adwait looked at her confused.

" Don't tell me you are expecting again!." Rayaan said looking at his brother who shrugged his shoulders.

" I got selected to perform internationally. And my first performance is two months away." Srida shared which earned applause from everyone.

Radha smiled at her family progressing in life. Rayaan held his wife close going through same emotion.

" Would love to go on international vacation with you. " Rayaan said winking at his wife who understood his intentions.

" I guess we will be expecting from you very soon. " Adwait hooted which made everyone laugh.
