"Sab apne apne passports do" Bandana said when they got in the airport, Grayson made a face, "trust her" Sameeksha said in a low voice. "Tumahra bhai kaha gaya?" Bandana asked Grayson when he gave her his passport. "Toilet" He replied, Bandana made a poker face. "Me bata rhi hu, jese uske kaam hai na, yahi peeche reh jaega woh" She said.

"Lo aa gaya" Sameeksha said, "passport" Bandana forwarded her hand. "Sure" he smiled and gave his passport to her. "Sab saath me rehna" She said looking at Manjot, "yaar bas ek baar ghum hua tha me" He rolled his eyes and followed her. 

Bandana showed the documents to the respective airport staff, lead the group to get their bags checked.

"Oh shit" Ethan said, Bandana turned and looked at him. "We can't take in liquids right?" He asked holding his water bottle. She rolled her eyes, "ya to yeh paani peelo, ya bottle fenk do" she said.

"It's my favourite bottle, me ni fekunga" he said and started drinking it. She shook her head and went through the security.

An hour later, they were looking for their seats in the plane.

"Yehi kami thi" Bandana rolled her eyes when she saw that her seat was next to Ethan's. "Tum teeno saath me ho, aur ham dono saath me" She said looking at Ethan. 

Ethan had the window seat and Bandana sat on his right. Sameeksha sat in the centre and on her left and right were Grayson and Manjot, respectively.

Bandana was feeling awkward, she wanted to talk but not to Ethan and the only person next to her was Ethan.

She was looking at other passengers coming in the plane and sitting on their seats. "Hey..." Ethan said, she looked at him, "I think I need the toilet" He said.

She looked down and then up, "itna kaha se laate ho yaar?" She asked making a face. "What the..." he looked away, "I drank a whole bottle of water before" He said.

"Haan to ruk jaao na abhi. Log aa rahe, kaha se nikalke jaoge? Ruk jao thodi der" she said. He nodded and kept quiet.

Everyone looked settled in about five minutes. "Can I go now?" He asked. She nodded. He was about to stand up when the cabin crew came to explain their jargon.

He clenched his jaw and sat down patiently. Bandana was watching the jargon as if it was the first time she's seen it.

"Shit" Ethan said in a low voice, Bandana looked at him. "Mard bano yaar, control karo" She said, he rolled his eyes.

The jargon finally finished and the cabin crew left.

"Come on, move out of the way" He said to her, "abhi to take off hoga. Thodi der aur ruk jaao. Plane upar pohonch jaae to chale jaana" She said.

He widened his eyes, "are you serious" He said sitting down. "Abhi koi jaane nhi dega tumhe. Thoda aur control karlo" She said.

The plane finally started moving, giving Ethan some more patience.

"Move fast!!!" He whispered. Bandana was controlling her laughter. "Runway pe pohonch gey, thoda aur sabar rakho" She said.

"I'm gonna pop!!" He gritted his teeth, "I cannot fucking hold it anymore" He said tapping his hand on his knee. She looked away and started laughing silently.

The plane finally took off.

"It's not like pressure anymore" He said looking at her, "it fucking pains now! It pains!! I swear I'm gonna pop" He panicked. "Chill chill. Okay give me your hand" She said smiling.

She held his hand. "It'll be alright okay?" She said moving her gaze from his hand to his eyes, he was looking at her already. She looked down because of the sudden eye lock.

The cabin crew announced that the plane was steady, "you can go now" She smiled, he was still lost in her. "Umm, you...can go now" She said again. He blinked his eyes twice, "oh...yeah..." He said standing up.

*******

Once landed, Bandana's excitement was on its peak. Her eyes were searching for his brothers.

"Yo" Ethan said in Sameeksha's ear, "I've seen in Bollywood movies, Indian brothers are extra protective or something?" he said. Sameeksha chuckled, "that's true" she replied.

"Do I have to be careful then?" He asked, "the older one is a sweetheart. The younger one is a piece of shit" She said. He cocked his eyebrow, "is that your personal experience?" He asked, she made a poker face.

"Veere!!" Bandana shouted grabbing everyone's attention.

Bandana's brother Ishan

She hugged him tightly, he smiled and hugged her back. "Kesi hai tu?" He asked caressing her hair, "mene boht miss kia aapko" she said breaking the hug. He cupped her face and placed a kiss on her forehead.

"Baaki sab kaha hai?" She asked, "tere aane ki tayaarion me lage hue hai" He said, she smiled. "Apne dosto se to milva" He said looking at the group standing with a confused expression.

"Sameeksha ko to aap jaante hi hai. Yeh Manjot hai, hamare saath parhta hai. Aur yeh dono twins hai, Oxford se yaha research karne aae hai" She introduced them, he greeted everyone and they finally left for home.

*******

Sameeksha was a little nervous. She was happy to Ishan again, he's always been nice to her, he always treated her like Bandana. The person she didn't want to see was Abhishek.

They reached the bungalow and Abhishek welcomed them.

"Kutte" Bandana said, "mujhe lene nhi aaya?" She asked Abhishek, hugging him. "Aur thodi sharam kar leta" She added, he gave her a confused look, "2 pe out ho gaya?" She asked.

He looked at Ishan, "Veere" He whined, "chod na, dono me se ek bhai jeet gaya. Aur kya chahiye?" Ishan said to Bandana.

Abhishek greeted the three boys. Everybody started walking in, Sameeksha was the last one left.

"Hi Sameeksha" He smiled, "Hi Abhishek" She said and started following everyone when he held her wrist. "It's Abhay for you" He said not looking at her, "it was...Abhishek" She said not turning around.

*******

What happened between Abhishek and Sameeksha? Any guesses? Is something starting between Bandana and Ethan? If so, what will happen to Manjot?

Here's another picture of Ishan, because, why not? I mean he's good looking...

And here is Abhishek
