"Mujhe lagta hai Virat iss doctor ko pehle se janta hai " Bhuvi said.

"Ary par Virat isko kaise janta hoga?" Jaddu argued.

"Wo apko bad me pata chalega" Rishabh smirked and everyone glared him.

"Han na ye ek dusre ko jante hain. Actually ye Virat ki..." Mahi bhai said shocking Rishabh.

"Kya apko kis ne bola, kab bola kahan bola or kyun bola?" Rishabh asked scandalized.

"Wo raat me...." Mahi bhai said consused but Risha bh cut him off.

"Kya Virat bhaiya ne apko bata diya. Mujhe sab bolte rehte hain tu chup reh tu mat bol tu bata dega or khud bata diya. Wahh" he yelled dramatically gaining Virat Anushka's attention as they looked at each other panicked.

"Rish" Virat tried to stop him.

"Bas Virat bhaiya apne mere bina hi bata diya na"

"Ary su to"

"Ab sunne ko bacha hi kya hai?"

"Rishabh lekin hoa kya isme kya badi baat hai" Mahi bhai said.

"Mujhe kuch nahi sunna Mahi bhai ab me kisi ki ek nahi sunonga"

"Rishabh sun to" Bhuvi said exasperated.

"Nahi bas hogaya bhaiya ab koi kuch na bole" Rishabh cried.

"Rishabh" Anushka said.

"Nahi kuch... jee kya hoa " Rishabh asked sweetly and everyone looked at him angrily.

"Me Virat ki doctor hon or in 4 months me he was not doing good health wise and I've been treating him is me kya badi baat hai bata diya to bata diya" Anushka tried to put some sense into his brain.

"Oh to aap logon ne ye bola tha" Rishabh sighed relieved and Virushka glared at him as team raised their eyebrows.

"Ary matlab aap logon ne ye bola tha ke ye sab boards or media ko nahi batana hai team ka nahi bola tha acha" Rishabh covered up.

"Ab pata chal gaya na Rish to sofe se utar ja" Virat mocked him and Rishabh's face morphs into utter horror.

Rishabh jotls down from the sofa cleaning it with Harry's jacket lying nearby and putting cushion on the place.

"Hogaya saaf kardiya me ne" Rishabh said smiling proudly at Anushka.

"Thank you" Anushka smiled at his innocence.

"Ary usme kya hospital clean rakhna to hamara farz hai na" Rishabh said greatly and team passed him unpleased looks. 

"Well aaj se hum inki thori semi solid diet start karwa rahe hain to abhi soup aayega inke liye make sure he finishes it" Anushka said to them.

"Don't worry I'll manage" Mahi bhai said and she nodded and leaves the room.

"Hospital clean rakhna to hamara farz hai na" Yuzi mocked him.

"Han jo insan apna room clean nahi rakh sakta wo hospital clean karega" Rohit gave him a nasty look.

"Or hum me se kisi ki baat nahi suni uss doctor ke bolte hi uki baat sunli wahh Rishabh" Rahul joined.

"Ary tu to badal gaya hai rishabh kya kami reh gaye thi hamare pyaar me jo ye din dikhaya tu ne hamen" Jaddu cried.

"Oh bhaiya aram se bolo hospital hai ye chillao mat" Rishabh quickly warned him only to earn more nasty looks.

"Mahi bhai me ghalat keh raha hon kuch" he asked for Mahi bhai's support.

"Nahi tu kuch ghalat to nahi keh raha Rish par ye tu keh raha hai" Mahi bhai pulled his leg and everyone laughed.

"Tu itna bada kab hogaya Rishabh" Kuldeep said messing his hairs.

"Wo.. Wo apko bad me pata chalega" he said in style.

"Lo phir shuru iska" Jassi shaked his head.

Rishabh rolled his eyes and pulled Jassi and Hardik from Virat's side and slide on the chair.

"Tum log bohat der se bthe ho hato mujhe or Virat bhaiya ko important baar karni hai" Rishabh stated as they scowled.

"Or batao Virat bhaiya kya horaha hai" Rishabh casually said as Mahi bhai called harry and jassi.

"Me ne kisi ko bhi kuch nahi bataya hai or har cheez me hi nahi batata hon" Virat quickly complained.

"Ary hum ne kab kaha ke aap sab bolte ho hum ne kaha ke aap 2 din kuch nhi chupa sakte Mahi bhai se or abhi 2 din kahan hoe hain" Rishabh stated as a matter of fact and Virat glared at him.

"Bohat bol raha hai tu aaj kal" Virat scolds him and he smiled.

"Wahan kya argument horaha hai?" Virat asked listening to the buzzing sound in background.

"Kuch nahi bas ye decide horaha hai ke aaj raat ko kon rukega" Rishabh casually shrugged.

"Oh" Virat said in deep thoughts.

"Pata hai Anushka ko bhi me keh raha hon ghar chali jaye lekin wo ruki hoi hai yahan par hi. Na khane ka khayal hai na sleep schedule hai koi. Samajh nahi araha kya karon. Bola me ne or doctors hain raat ki hi to baat hai lekin nahi" Virat said worriedly.

"Oh me baat karon unse?" Rishabh asked

"Meri nahi sun rahi teri kahan sunegi lekin karle phir bhi."

"Just wait and watch bhaiya" Rishabh replied in full confidence.

"Tu kahan ja raha hai" Rahul asked as he saw Rishabh getting up.

"Kahin nahi yahan betha betha bore hogaya tha to socha hospital dekh kar ajaon" Rishabh said casually and leaves.

After coming out he was looking here and there for Anushka and spotted her coming out from a patient's ward immersed in conversation with another doctor. He waved at her which Anushka noticed. 

"Han jee bolen" Anushka came towards Rishabh.

"Wo sorry me ne adhi baat suni or aisa sab" Rishabh spoke embarrassingly.

"It's ok itna idea hogaya hai mujhe tum sab ek jaise hi ho bilkul immature" Anushka laughed. as Rishabh give an ear-to-ear smile.

"Kuch baat karni hai" Anushka asked him as he was constantly shaking his leg.

"Ahh ek baat pochon?" Rishabh reluctantly asked her and she nodded.

"Apko nahi lagta virat bhaiya ne hamen bohat jaldi maaf kardiya nahi I mean hamari wajah se itna kuch hoa unke saath or unhon ne itni asaani se maaf kardiya hamen" Rishabh spoke his heart out.

"To nahi karna chahiye tha" Anushka asked.

"Itni asaani se kaise karsakte haim itna asaan to nahi hota?"

"Itna mushkil bhi nahi hota. Pata hai as far as I have seen him in these months he craved for your love and presence in his life. Cricket or team ke bina he's nothing, he was just living on this hope ke he'll make everything alright. I know according to those ego and self-respect things he should've not given in easily but you know what some bonds are above these things. What they have done is not justifiable I know but there are thousands of time when they had backed him, supported him. Pata hai that's so wrong when someone says something in anger and we perceive them as their true colors and break ties with them. I guess everyone deserves a second chance in their life especially people who are ready to rectify their mistake surely deserves a chance because by punishing them we just end up suffering ourselves as well. So what's the use of such philosophic principles which ends up hurting ourselves only." Anushka tried to make him understand.

"Baat to sahi hai apki aisa to mene socha hi nahi kabhi" Rishabh said in awe of her.

"Lekin pata hai abhi bhi sab pehle jaisa nahi hoa like Virat bhaiya na thora weird behave kar rahe hain mere saath or apke saath to normal hain lekin baqion ke saath na wo bas aise har baat pr smile karte rehte hain jaddu bhaiya ki stories rohit bhaiya ki jealousy or harry bhaiya ki bakwas baaton pr bhi react nahi kar rahe" Rishabh said.

"Trust issues to hote hain na he's scared to lose them again to he's making sure ke wo phir se hurt na hojaen it's a trauma effect you know he don't want to lose them so he's justbeing cautious. Give him some time he'll be fine but yeah you all need to be patient with him" Anushka said.

"Apko pata hai aap best ho" Rishabh said still in awe of her.

"Acha ek or baat bolon" Rishabh asked her and she nodded.

"Aap ghar chali jao na thora rest krlo kal ajana wapis hum sab hain yahan. Aap itna kam kar rahi ho lekin apki health ka khayal nahi krogi to kaise chalega. Hum sab kya karenge phir. Aap chali jao abhi ghar hum yahan dekhlenge sab kuch nahi hoga please" Rishabh said.

"Par yahan kuch hoe mere jane ke bad to" Anushka said doubtfully.

"Ary to hum hain na yahan dekhlenge or aap nurses ko bhi bol ke jao they'll be extra alert" Rishabh said and Anushka looked a bit sure.

"Umm I guess you are right me abhi thori der se chali jati hon subah ajaongi mujhe case related bhi kuch kam hain tum log meeting time over ho to chale jana theek hai" Anushka said and Rishabh nodded solemnly.

Virat raised an eyebrow looking at Rishabh entering the room at which he just nodded raising his collars surprising Virat.

"Man li teri baat?"Virat asked her.

"Bilkul ek bar me" Rishabh said proudly.

Just then Anushka entered the room,

"Umm me aaj half-day leke ja rahi hon I'll be back tomorrow morning. If there's any emergency you guys can call Dr. Saxena and yeah visiting hours waise hi khatam horahe hain but still no one is allowed to meet Mr. Kohli for today and still if you guys need me just ask someone to call me and I'll come" Anushka informed them.

"Tum jao beta we'll manage here" Mahi bhai said to her and she nodded looking at Virat who blinked his eyes and she left. Nevertheless to mention this little interaction doesn't get unnoticed by Mahi bhai.

Anushka strictly asked nurse to don't let anyone meet Virat without her permission even if PM is here don't let him go inside. And after such thousand instructions she left the hospital.

Team was with Virat just then Sachin Tendulkar visited hospital to meet Virat.

"Umm excuse me Virat Kohli ka room konsa hai" he asked a nurse who was passing by.

"Umm sorry sir you are not allowed to meet him" nurse replied solemnly.

"But visiting hours are still left" he argued.

"Yeah but no one's allowed to meet him without dr. Anushka's permission"

  "Ok then call your doctor" he said irritated.

"Sorry sir wo to ghar chali gaye hain" 

"Ye kya mazak hai don't you know me I am just here to visit him let me go" he said persistently.

"Sorry sir no one is allowed to meet him"

He tried calling some of the team members but they were too busy to notice that and nurse didn't let him go so defeatedly he has to go back without meeting Virat.
