Anika walked inside the operation theater as she still couldn't ask Om about the required documents. She saw both Rudra and Om standing in front of Dr. Douchebro's cabin.  The number of patients left were now within finger counts and Anika was sure the perfectionist Dr. Douchebro would have refused for any visitor before he is done with his patients for today.

"Om where is the list of drugs available in stock?" asked Anika as both the men turned toward her. "Right side of the left most cupboards in record room." answered Om and Anika nodded. She was going when Rudra interrupted her "Can I have the pleasure of your company Ms Beautiful until my Douchebro brother acknowledge my presence,"

Anika was sure that Rudra was trying his best to tease her and indeed he was getting successful in his target. Although Anika disliked outrageous flirts  like this, something about this man was different. He was sweet, his aura held a positivism and child like innocence.  He was like those people in life whom we meet once and instantly get a known connection and bonding.

"Well Mr Oberoi..." Anika was interrupted by Rudra who looked offended with the reference Anika used for him "See Ms Beautiful you know three oberoi men if you will call Mr Oberoi won't we be confused, Logic right?  so call me Rudra or Rudy. "

Anika couldn't help an unconscious smile forming on her lips. Turning toward him she wrapped her arms on her chest before replying "Rudra first of all there will be no confusion since I call Senior Oberoi as Tej Uncle, Your brother as......"

"Dr. Douchebro"interrupted Om and Rudra together smiling cheekily while Anika looked embarrassed. They had actually got her weak nerve and  are not letting go even a single chance to push it.

"Nothing like that Ok I call him Dr. Oberoi" stammered Anika trying her best to sound stern while Om and Rudra smiled teasingly nodding in a yes. "Also I would have loved to give you company Rudra but I have work to look after, you enjoy with Om." Anika tried her best to change the topic.

"This turban man can only bore me Ms Beautiful, I know you are out of my reach but there is nothing wrong in trying" said Rudra. "Call her didi Mr" interrupted Om chuckling while Rudra looked at him as if he had grown horns. "She is elder than you." Om said shaking Rudra's CRPF identity card in front of Anika while Rudra did a fake heartbreak shot.

"You had an identity proof then why were you arguing with Om outside?" asked Anika looking at the card. "It was fun to annoy this turban Man" replied Rudra cheekily while Om rolled his eyes. Anika chuckled before giving back the card. 

"I have a name, call me Omkara." said Om annoyed with Turban Man. He already hated this turban and now he hate it more courtesy to Rudra. "I'll call you O, sound cool." said Rudra while Om shook his head not wanting to argue anymore. Anika smiled at the two. Met just moments ago they behave like friends forever.  "I'll get going you guys enjoy." said Anika and was going when stopped again by Rudra.

"Ms Beautiful work can wait, come naa." Anika so wanted to dismiss his request but can't help looking at the cute face he was making.She can't believe he is the brother of  Dr. Douchebro who is an epitome  of work ethics, perfection and seriousness.

"Okay Fine tell me about you, where are you posted?" Anika asked to Rudra trying to initiate a conversation which was not at all difficult considering the jolly attitude of Rudra. "Srinagar, Jammu and Kashmir" replied Rudra as he continued telling about his work and life. He was one of the ultimate chatterbox Anika had ever came across but she knew she in actually loving his warm company. Anika admired his ability of getting mixed up with people so soon.

"He is done for now, you can go in. And yes I just told him he has a visitor so your surprised is intact" informed Om as an overexcited Rudra walked inside Dr. Douchebro's cabin pulling Anika as well. Om followed them inside considering he had some work with Dr. Douchebro. "Bhaiya!!!" shouted Rudra to his extreme, Dr. Douchebro looked up from his file surprised as well as shocked.

"Rudra..."  he didn't complete just came and hugged him tightly not bothering about the other two person in his cabin. Anika smiled looking at them. He looked more like a kid hugging his little brother pecking his forehead time to time. Anika was not sure but she felt a drop of saline water passing by Dr. Douchebro's smiling face.

"How are you? You were coming tomorrow right?  You ate something?" Dr. Douchebro continued his series of question while Anika led out a silent laugh at the adorable sight. "Bhaiya wait, are you trying to kill this little kid with your number of question?" asked Rudra with his adorable face.

"I am fine, first question answered. Yes I was coming tomorrow but I wanted to surprise you that's why I left the same day my leave was sanctioned, Second question answered. I ate food in car and here I ate O's brain,  third question answered."  answered Rudra counting in fingers as he answered Dr. Douchebro's questions while he smacked his head.

"Who is O?"  asked Dr. Douchebro to which Rudra pointed at Omkara "This turban man,you know I ate his brain for nearly half an hour saying I don't have an identity proof." grinned Rudra while Om saluted Dr. Douchebro clearly avoiding Rudra's nasty comments.

That's when Dr. Douchebro acknowledged the presence of other two people in the cabin. He smiled at Anika who saluted him and then turned to Om."I am so sorry for Rudra's behavior Om, he acts too childish off duty." apologized Dr. Douchebro as he hit Rudra playfully while Om nodded smiling before replying "It's fine sir, anyway had a great entertainment on duty."

"By the way bhaiya meet my new friend Ms Beautiful also known as Lt. Col Anika Roy, isn't she pretty?" asked Rudra as he went and stood beside Anika who giggled at his outrage flirting while Om glared Rudra. She looked at Dr. Douchebro who looked offended and displeased but for what Anika couldn't get it.

"Indeed she is beautiful and pretty but Mr Dumbbell Oberoi, she is out of your reach." said Dr. Docuhebro before pulling Rudra toward him. "Indeed and didn't I tell you she is your Didi, elder than you" continued Omkara to which Dr. Douchebro supported him saying "and following your manners,you better call her Didi only.' 

Rudra made a sad face and Anika giggled at the three boys pulling each other legs. "What is with this Dumbbell Oberoi?" asked Anika  as the three faces turned toward her " Actually Ms Roy Rudra is really fond of gym and stuff so just to tease him we play fully call him Dumbbell Oberoi." explained Dr. Douchebro to which Om grinned before giving it back to Rudra "Nice to meet you Mr 'Dumb' bell Oberoi." Om made his full effort to focus on the word Dumb. While Dr. Douchebro chuckled, Rudra glared Omkara.

"Why didn't you changed your uniform before coming Rudra?" asked Dr. Douchebro as he gestured all of them to sit while he himself sat on his chair. Om and Anika were leaving but were stopped by Rudra who was supported by Dr. Douchebro as well since they didn't have much work for today. "Because I just ran away with the backpack as my leave got confirmed who knows if there got another alert and they cancel my leave like last time." said Rudra complaining as per the last line. Srinagar was one hell of dangerous zone for defense sector of India, Alerts were frequent in the place and Rudra didn't want to miss his leave at all.

"And?" asked Dr. Douchebro while Om and Anika were confused. When he already have given the reason what's and in it? "and girls give more attention with this commando uniform" Rudra replied flushed while Dr. Douchebro gave him a look.

Anika admired these two. She can see Sahil and herself in them. Dr. Douchebro knew his brother so well and Anika  had got one more quality of his to admire.

"He is one hell of a playboy you know." Anika heard Dr. Douchebro to which she replied "but he is really cute." While Rudra looked beaming with happiness Dr. Douchebro again looked offended. What did she do now?

"See Bhaiya even Ms beautiful finds me cute" said Rudra raising his collar.  "She is elder than you." gave back Dr. Douchebro sternly accompanied by Om.

"So what, such relation are in trend now."  grinned Rudra while Anika giggled.  "Indeed such relation are in trend Rudra, like me and Sahil. You are just like Sahil for me." replied Anika grinning twisting his words. While Rudra looked confused a smile had formed on Dr. Douchebro's face. A gleeful, victorious smile and Anika could again can't get the reason behind the same. 

"Who is Sahil, your friend?" asked Rudra but before Anika could reply both Dr. Douchebro and Om spoke up grinning to their fullest "No her little brother."

Rudra looked at Anika as she couldn't control a laugh looking at his adorable face and was soon accompanied by the two other men. "You my little brother are Bro-zoned by your Ms beautiful." said Dr. Douchebro in between his laughter and Anika found him adorably cute however she didn't voiced it out.

"On a serious note how long is your leave?" asked Dr. Douchebro as he gave Om the signed file he required. "two months, last time they cancelled my leave for the alert so this time agreed for two months on occasion of your wedding." said Rudra ever so seriously while the other three looked shocked.

"You are getting married Dr. Oberoi?" asked Anika avoiding the certain unpleasant feeling forming in her stomach. "Didn't even informed us!' complained Omkara even before Dr. Douchebro could reply.

"I would have told you guys if I would have known myself, this is the third time he is taking leave on occasion of my wedding and Ms Roy I am seriously not getting married anytime soon." said Dr. Douchebro focusing the last line on Anika looking a bit offended.

Rudra giggled along with Om as Anika smiled at them. "Your wedding remind me Dadi is coming from village." said Rudra to which Dr. Douchebro smiled "Great when?" "Next week with Lady baba." replies Rudra grinning while Dr. Douchebro looked at Rudra before nodding an okay. Rudra continued "and with her mother""Not again." said Dr. Douchebro clearly not pleased with the news.

Anika wondered who could this lady baba be who is coming with her mother and why was Dr. Douchebro looking unhappy with their arrival. He didn't looked like an atheist considering he keeps fast and visit temples than what problem he would have with the arrival of holy peoples at his home. However she didn't asked it out considering it their family matter.

  "Ok Ms Beautiful........" Rudra couldn't complete as he was interrupted by Dr. Douchebro "Rudra  manners call her Didi."

"Fine Didi, since I had came after so long and you and O are my first friend here, I invite you guys at home for a dinner cooked by Bhaiya. He is an excellent cook."  said Rudra sulking at the work Didi.

"Rudra, it was so sweet of you to invite us but I don't think its a good idea. We'll meet on this weekend somewhere okay" excused Anika. Even though she was loving his company and Rudra was really a sweet guy, accepting a dinner invite was not something Anika approved of. Earlier also she was invited by Tej Uncle and Jhanvi Aunty but she just couldn't accept. 

 "Ms Roy, please I insist you to join us anyway I promised you that I'll cook for you once, you should definitely help me to fulfill it." It was Dr. Douchebro this time and before Anika could reply he turned to Om. "and Om I am not accepting a No from you, remember I am your friend and you can't say no to me." 

"Okay fine. I will come" agreed Omkara to which Rudra replied "Anyway you didn't had an option." Omkara rolled his eyes when Rudra continued "you live alone here?" "No with my wife." replied Om."So don't come alone bring my bhabhi too." said Rudra while Om replied back looking at Dr.  Douchebro "Anyway I don't have an option."

"And Didi same applies to you, You are coming with Sahil, Uncle and Aunty as well." said Rudra while all of a sudden the environment got tensed up as the smiles on Om and  Dr. Douchebro's face faded away.

"My Parents can't come Rudra, they are no more." Anika replied trying her best to keep the smile ignoring the pit forming in her stomach. "I am sorry didi I didn't knew." apologized Rudra sincerely. 

"No It's fine, In Life such stuff happens." Anika said keeping the fake smile intact and got up from her seat, saluting Dr. Douchebro she left excusing herself "I'll take your leave I have work to look after."

No matter how hard Anika shows she had moved on from her parents death, It's not easy. She can still move on from her father's death considering she don't remember much of him but her mother's memory is still fresh in her mind. She could still feel her around referring her as 'Titli' she fondly did.

Sitting on the desk Anika shortlisted the drugs need to be imported and ordered when Rudra knocked at the Door and Anika smiled at him as he came and sat infront of Anika. 

"I am Sorry Didi." apologized Rudra when Anika again looked at him smiling before replying "It's completely fine Rudra,  you didn't knew anyway."  Although Anika was a bit upset she couldn't help but smile at the childish face of Rudra.

"You know Didi when I qualified for Commando 469,  I was really scared to join it even though it was my dream,knowing that it demands my life. One bullet and everything will be over. I was the most pampered one in my family. Bhaiya always protected me and loved me endlessly maybe that's why I was scared to go in the open world which is not like my brother, which will hurt me. When Bhaiya forced me to join I thought he changed,I even complained to him that he no longer loves me and he don't want to protect me anymore....but you know what he told me,he said that I need to grow, get out of my comfort zone which was by being around him. He said that I can't always rely on him, he is here to protect me not to make me handicap so I need to grow and stand on my own feet, face my own problems and solve them. He distanced me from himself knowing well how hard it is for both of us  but just for me he did. I now know it's value" said Rudra as his voice held seriousness while his eyes appeared to be lost in those memories.

Anika looked at him and can see an  epitome of pride in him for his elder brother. Anika now had no doubt that behind this commando is the effort and sacrifice of his elder brother, Dr. Douchebro.

"Whenever I use to complain that what if I die, what If a bullet strike me or what if in one of counter-terrorist act I am blown off. You know he said that I am his star and stars never die." He looked at Anika as he said that while Anika smiled at him. "Similarly Didi you parents are your stars and they never die." said Rudra while Anika looked at him surprised.  She didn't see this coming up. He just twisted his own story so beautifully to fit in her own.

"I Know this sounds too idealistic and not real at all but indeed it is, you just need to feel it. If god can exist withing us for eternity why can't our parents" said Rudra and Anika smiled before replying "You know Rudra, you really are a sweetheart." 

"You forgave me?" asked Rudra as Anika replied "I was never angry Rudra." Indeed she was never angry with him. She was just uncomfortable to talk about it. "Then proof it by coming for Dinner today please." said Rudra with his best puppy face and  no matter how much Anika want to dismiss it she couldn't.  As she agreed Rudra jumped of his chair smiling widely "See you at the evening Didi."

He left while Anika stared at his retreating figure.  This man who held a lot behind his smiling face was as mature as childish he shows. He was one of those guys who can insult themselves just to bring a smile on their loved one's face. Dr. Douchebro's brother is indeed a sweetheart.
