Kaira's POV:

Knock. Knock. Knock.

Karthik opened their door that I was knocking, Kabir was drinking water inside, whereas Milkshake and Sidharth were nowhere to be seen.

"Where are Sidharth and Milkshake? I have something important to discuss with you guys." I announce as he moves aside letting me step inside.

"If you are going to be romancing, try and do not do it in front of us." Karthik accused.

I sent him a look "Why don't you try and limit your imagination? That would be good for all of us."

"Abhi is in the shower, just went in. And Sid—" Kabir answered instead looking around when the door opened and Sidharth entered behind me with his shoes in hand.

He narrowed his eyes at me "What are you doing here? Shouldn't you be in bed?"

I rolled my eyes "I'm fine, you people are just exaggerating. Anyway, Sam, Sree and Nikki have gone to see Jugnoo, sent me here to call you guys."

"Let's go then, why wait?" Karthik was near the door, opening it already.

"We should wait for Abhi." Kabir stated and Karthik groaned closing the door anyway.

Sidharth simply kept his shoes down then walked past me towards their bags when I stopped him by holding his hand.

"But before we leave, I have something very important to discuss."

Kabir cleared his throat walking towards Karthik "In that case we'll be outside—"

I rolled my eyes letting go of Sidharth's hand "Even with both of you. It's about milkshake."

Sidharth's arms crossed against his chest, his eyebrows rose as he offers "Go on." Kabir and Karthik paused as well.

"Look, I don't know what he has told you about his sudden quitting at music industry but as much as I could imagine it would have been-" I cleared my throat to get a deeper voice and imitated milkshake's voice "-'I just didn't feel like it, I understood it's not for me, finished. There's nothing more.' Well, of course, there was a load of shit he did."

I looked around to find them looking at me intently. My gaze stopped at Kabir and he nodded "Exact words."

"So what is this discussion about? How much more you know Abhi than we?" Karthik snorted.

"I never said that, even if it is damn true." I stated facing his friends I continued "That's the only thing he tells everyone. Not even his most close family members know the mess he's made." He scoffed but kept shut.

I looked between them then at the closed washroom door "And what was his dialogue? Didn't feel like it, it's not for me. Bullshit. Have you ever even seen him? When he's performing or in his studio or in his world? He loves nothing as much as his music. He can't lose his love because of his mistakes. Now you see why am I so desperate about it?"

When I looked at them I knew my words did reach their hearts. They were in deep thought.

"Yes, he shouldn't lose his love because of his mistakes." Sidharth nodded. Kabir and Karthik shared a look and nodded their agreement.

"Great. So are we all in agreement that he should go for his love and not random flings with jobs?"

Sidharth's one corner tugged slightly towards a smile, Kabir gave a full chuckle and Karthik just shook his head.

"Awesome. So climb in my train and start playing your parts to convince him to reconsider. We got to pressure his mind with his passion as much as he shouldn't be able to think anything else."

"Wait. Abhi has quitted for almost more than 2 years." Karthik started

"How will it matter if he reconsiders now? The damage is done." Kabir continued.

"And it could be a possibility that people have forgotten him." Sidharth completed.

I smiled at him "You think that? Really? Remember carnival evening? There were 7 songs of milkshake and 3 of Arjit Singh and a few others. Milkshake's charm isn't something people can forget. You should have seen his fan page blog that evening, it was loaded with comments of how he should be back, he should continue and other stupid stuff discussing why he left."

His eyebrow rose "When did you see all that?"

"While returning. Listening to those songs reminded me of times we were recording before we were kidnapped for camping." I smiled at Kabir and Karthik who scowled.

"Why didn't you tell me then?" Sidharth's voice made me look back at him.

"About that, I didn't want you to think I am one of his female fans, or I have any stupid celebrity crush on him. Milkshake and crush— Yucks disgusting." I shuddered.

Sidharth was about to comment but Kabir interrupted "Guys, we are off-topic."

Shaking my head I concentrated "Yeah sorry. So I was saying, this 2-year gap isn't going to do any worse for him, on contrary his comeback would be a blast. Once he reconsiders and decides he wants an in— Well, then I can handle it all."

"How are you going to do the rest? Magically clear the mess he created, whatever it is though." Karthik scoffed once I explained my point.

"Oh no, I will make him clean the mess he created." I smiled before I shrugged "I have my ways."

"Okay, it's decided. We will convince him to reconsider his career then Kaira will see what to do." Sidharth announced then looked at me "Aren't you going to try convincing him?"

"I give it a shot every time I could, besides I'm mad at him remember? I'm supposed to ignore him, well at least until I don't slap him indicating we are good."

His eyes glistened amusement as he echoed "You going to slap him as an indication for good?"

"Not exactly slap, it would be more like kicks and punches." I shrugged "Okay, I'll go before milkshake comes, remember what you have to do and this discussion never happened."

Getting nods and thumbs up, I took hardly 2 steps towards the door when the washroom door opened and milkshake walked out in his towel.

I rolled my eyes and ignore him to go out of the room when something caught my eye and I narrowed my eyes at my best friend's shoulder.

"Who did you fight?" I demanded out of habit.

He snorted "Oh you acknowledge me now? Why now? Go on ignore me like the plague."

"I asked you something milkshake"

"No one." he muttered as he runs his hand through his damp hair.

"Cool, I'd rather give a call to Ritz, he would tell me why did you guys had to fight again after everything was sorted."

"What is your problem bunny? It was nothing, a mere argument!" He snapped.

"My problem is you are an asshole that needs to limit his urges! Why do you have to get into fights!? What if in your urge to fight you get a blow on your shoulder!?"

I felt his friends' eyes on me as I whisper yelled at him. He didn't care though, he stood there rolling his eyes.

"Milkshake that thing was sorted two years ago! Why do you have to fight over that! You...! "

I was already across the room searching through his bag for the medical kit I kept.

Pulling out a cream I threw it to him, five seconds later a pair of jeans and a shirt collided his chest.

"Apply that before you dress up and hurry up we are waiting for you, we have to be somewhere, my friends already left."

"My boxers."

I rolled my eyes "You're not five anymore! Why do you have only 1 in here?! I swear I should have asked Robin to check your bags before leaving. Who brings only 1 underwear for a trip!? Why didn't you bring from your stock under the bed? I clearly said no to your skinny dipping idea, what's wrong with you?"

I felt everyone's eyes on me as I threw his only underwear on his face. He pulled it off smirking.

"How do you know your Sidharth is more hygienic and has brought more than 4 pairs?" He mocked.

"I can't believe I'm doing this!" I muttered before I turned to face Sidharth "How many underwears have you brought?"

Slowly his lips curved in a smirk and I snorted "Oh don't give me that look, I'm asking so next time I know how many to pack in your bag or how many you need to buy."

Still smirking he noted "3 extra."

"See? Not hygienic enough!" Milkshake commented and I faced him.

"Still better than single extra." I mocked "Now hurry up and get dressed, I don't want you to run around showing your naked butt to my horrified friends."

"Not your friends, how about you? Aren't you interested in my perfect butt?" He passed me a smirk over his shoulder as he turned his ass to face me and wiggled.

Someone growled behind me.

I looked at him with a bored expression, pulling out my phone I search through my playlist.

"If you want me to play some song while you are stripping then I'll leave my phone here, do you want anything from Desi boys or anything like Dilbar or Laila mai Laila? I'm sure your friends would like a show like that, they might have gotten bore by seeing girls strip show them something new. I'm not interested."

His smirk stayed as it is, turning my head to Sidharth I gave him a nod indicating to get our plan into action as soon as possible and walked out of the room.

On the dining table, I stopped to drink water then sat at a chair and went through my phone for new messages, looking at the WhatsApp group chat with my best friends. Milkshake had sent a picture a few hours ago.

I opened it to see a pic loading, when it did my eyes were out if their sockets.

That bloody asshole! He is so going to have it from me now! So this is how he is getting back at me? That useless piece of shit!

"What did you say!? Me? Should join back? Ha! Never in your 7 lives!" Milkshake was saying as they all came out of their room.

"Think about it Abhi, your love for music—" Kabir started but get cuts off by my best friend.

"So what!? It can be just a hobby! It doesn't necessarily need to work as a career! I'm not going back. Who even stuffed it in your head buddy?"

"Ah! Milkshake, there you are! See what I got, a perfect Instagram worthy picture. Oh, why only insta? I should post it on your Facebook and Twitter fan pages as well!" I exclaimed cheerily.

He stopped protesting with his friends to look up at the pictures I showed him.

Him dancing in nothing but his boxers when he had toppled all wheat flour over himself, then his picture when he tripped and fell into his bathtub full with bubbles, then was a pic I had clicked when I colored his hair green instead of golden, then another followed, then other. By the 10th one, his face was red.

He is mad, huh? Nice, very nice.

"You bitch! What is the meaning of privacy!? Why do you even have them, I asked you to delete them long back! Why did you even click them in first place!?" He launched forward to hit me, I simply stepped to the side.

His friends look at us bewildered, Sidharth's expression was similar to his friends with their jaw dropping open.

"I could ask the same. Why did you click it? What is the meaning of privacy?" I mocked as I waved my phone in front of him.

He smirked when he saw the screen opened "Oops" he shrugged "By mistake I sent it in group, I was sending only to him."

"How can I have the guarantee that you sent only him!? You ass! Why do you have to go out and spy?" I snapped.

"First of all, I wasn't spying. I got out for air when I saw it. And Of course I had to click it bunny! It was so important! My bunny's—" He exclaimed but gets cut off as my punch landed on his cheek.

"You are impossible!"

Another punch, I tried but he ducked.

"You little piece of shit! It's all your fault!"

Another punch, again he ducked! Damn!

He laughed then smiled "Breathe!" I did as said.

"Focus. Hit." I followed his instructions. He ducked again.

He smiled mischievously "Tsk tsk, don't be obvious of your aim!"

I failed twice but on the third strike, I hit him in the stomach.

"Harder! That's all you got?" Yet he taunted. Remembering rules, I swing again, harder than before.

"Ouch! Bitch, now you got it Right!"

"It hurts? Well, it should!"

Again! Again! Again!

Duck! Duck! Hit!

"Fuck! You are getting good with your punches. Are you practicing again?" He commented as he moved back to dodge my punches.

"I am! I heard someone say my punches are not hard enough a few months ago and I should work on it. Am I doing better now?"

Punch! Punch! Punch!

Hit! Duck! Hit!

"Sid! Why did you underestimate this chipmunk!? Look I have to bare your fault!" He cried over his shoulder.

Punch! Punch! Punch!

Duck! Hit! Duck!

"I never underestimated her, you are suffering on your own." Came Sidharth's cool voice.

Once again my punch hits him, on his right shoulder where Ritz had hit him.

"Ouch! You bitch! It fucking hurts! Why are you even attacking me!? Its not my fault I was there when it happened!" Defending himself from my punches he swung his foot and kicked me in the hip.

I paused for two seconds to let the sting settle in then I start back with my punches. I blocked another of his loose kicks with my foot and fisting my already hard fist I let it fall down on his jaw.

"Try me milkshake, I'm doing better with my kicks." I grunted before I swing my leg and kick him at his side. Losing his balance he jerked to the side on the sofa.

Overacting. He is such a drama king. I'll show him!

Before he could turn back to fake defend I grabbed his wrist and twisted it behind his back, leaning down I snatched a pillow from the couch and hit him with it, making sure the lace hits him.

"Ouch! Bunny..! Argh! Stop! I'm sorry okay!? Argh! That thing is— ouch!" he cursed as my knee hit him in his bullocks.

"You are sorry?" I asked as I tightened my hold on his arm.

"Yes, curse you!"

"About what?"

"About getting into fights!"

"And?"

"Okay fine! For clicking your pictures!"

"What will you do about them?"

"I'll save them to my laptop and then delete from the phone!" He smirked from below which made me tighten my hold "Argh!"

"What will you not do?"

"Argh! Fine! I'll not spy over your moments okay!? I will not click pics of you kissing!"

Someone fell behind in background.

Kneeing once more in his butt I let him go with a "Good, keep it in mind."

He struggles and dumps himself on the couch while I go and get ice pack for him.

When I came back Kabir and Karthik were near milkshake, talking in hushed whispers. Sidharth though was on the dining table into his phone.

I threw milkshake the ice pack and he groaned as it soothed his muscles.

"Who are you even moaning so much for? You know I didn't even hit you half as good as I wanted to." I rolled my eyes at milkshake's drama.

"You bitch! You hit me at the same places where I'm sore from previous fights."

I smirked "Ain't I a genius? I didn't even need to use much force."

"Would you want the roles to be reversed? Very well, you—" milkshake was interrupted.

"You wish?" Sidharth's cool voice was interrupted as I hold up my hand for him to stop.

"Enough milkshake." I look down at him disapprovingly "Enough is enough. How long do you plan to put it up? Why are you still doing this after we talked about it? You aren't fooling anybody, you know that? Sidharth's shit tolerance level might be high but mine doesn't even come to half of it, so you better shut up. Last warning this is I'm giving you milkshake, one more sex talk with us involving, and I'll disown you. Oh and for the bonus, I'll tell everything to Bhai and whatever he does after that is not my responsibility."

Everyone around had their eyes fixed on me as I scolded but Sidharth's were literally burning the back of my head with his gaze.

Milkshake mocked his eyebrows "Including your kiss, I presume?"

I smiled sarcastically "Why should I when you already have?"

He shrugged "I haven't yet, but going to as soon as we go home."

I narrowed my eyes before I say "Sure, why not? I'll let bhai know what you do at my house when he is not home."

"You wouldn't dare, babe." He flinched anyway.

"Try me." I snapped before I rolled my eyes "Stop acting like you don't know me and that irritating endearment."

He laughed "Your patience has increased bunny, a good thing."

"Maybe Sidharth is rubbing me off." I shrugged "Oh wait! About Bhai, did he corner you yet?"

Milkshake groaned at my smirk pressing the icepack more into his flesh "Hell yeah! Thrice."

I laughed as I walked over to sit beside him.

"Why are you so happy?" He barked at me "I heard you had fights with him as well."

"I did, two. You so deserved it, ditching me at my engagement."

He whined "Shut it! I already heard about it and have been beaten thrice. Tell me about your fights, they'll make me feel better."

I scoffed "He literally kicked me out when I walked out on his romance the third time and it ended in more than just kicking me out of the house with bruises. The kitchen is not a place to romance!"

He smirked at me, I gifted him a punch in the arm which made him not voice his thought out.

"And second?" Kabir asked interested.

"Our video game war went far and it ended in a real war."

Milkshake studied my face then added with a smirk "Did it hurt?"

I groaned pressing the icepack harder into his flesh remembering those days "Don't remind me. Damn it! His kicks are still as strong as ever! His old age didn't lighten them at all!"

"Old age?" Karthik scoffed "30 doesn't make you old. Who taught her common sense?"

"Shut up, he acts like 50 so of course he is old to me!" I snapped making them laugh.

"Forget bhai, tell me what were you guys discussing before? It sounded interesting." I faked ignorance.

"Nothing important." Milkshake muttered playing with the ice pack.

I raised my eyebrow at Sidharth, winking he started "Abhi loves music so much that's why we were trying to convince him to join back into the industry—" He was cut off by milkshake throwing a pillow at him.

I glared at milkshake who was glaring at Sidharth behind me.

"Milkshake! Aren't your sore muscles aching now?" I glared "What is going on in that mind of yours?"

"Nothing."

"Why are you always avoiding that—"

"No, bunny! Enough. I don't want to talk about that now."

"Not now, not now! That's what you always say when we are on this topic! Then when milkshake? You promised that we will final this for once when you come back, it's been days now!" I snapped.

He sat there glaring at the coffee table. I sighed, reaching forward I placed my palm on his shoulder squeezing slightly.

"Milkshake" I started softly this time "We could try—"

"You are insane if you think I'd let you anywhere close to that man ever again!" He growled interrupting me.

"And you are insane if you think I'll leave you alone when you need me!" I glared right back.

"Leave it, talking to you is of no use!" He said putting his legs on the floor, getting up.
