_______________________________

To fulfill the promise to Yash, Kritika is now standing in middle of the kitchen with her phone in her hands, leaning against the counter and a smile playing on her lips as she messages someone.

Laksh sitting on the counter with his legs fold blankly stare at her then his gaze shift to his elder brother who was standing beside her, his eyes on her as he waits for her to complete the conversation on the chat

Yash cleared his thoart as he said, "So... should we start?" Kritika turned towards Yash.

"Yess... sorry." She awkwardly replied, shutting her phone and putting it in her pocket.

"Was it Aditya?" Yash asked.

"Huh?"

"Was it Aditya? Whom you were talking to?" He repeated.

"Yes. How do you know that?" Kritika's eye widened at his correct guess.

"Just took a guess." Yash replied looking here and there, not sure how to answer to her. Isn't it obvious it's him when you were smiling like that while texting. He thought shaking his head.

"Aap ko kya banana aata hain?" Kritika asked, turning towards his direction. "Kuch bhi like kuch bhi, thodu sa toh aata hoga kuch."

[What can you make?]

[Anything, like anything even the simplest thing.]

Yash stayed quite for a long time before answering, "kuch nahi."

[Nothing.]

"Oh." Her eyebrows went up. While Laksh shook his head at his brother who glared at him.

"Umm... Maggie toh aati hogi? Agar Maggie nahi toh Chai atleast?" Kritika asked, as she hopes that he mus be knowing this much basic.

[Umm... you must be knowing how to make Maggie? If not Maggie then maybe tea?]

When he stayed silent, she replied after a long pause, "......nahi?" Yash shook his head in denial.

"Didi, mujhe aata hain Maggie aur Chai banana." Laksh grinned while saying. "Bhaiya toh pure din kitabe leke bethe rehte hain, pata nahi kya hi padhte hain."

[Didi, I know how to make Maggie and Chai.]

[Bhaiya studies 24/7. I don't know what he study this much.

"Ek baar mene bhaiya ko khana banane ke liye bola tha, aur unhone almost Pura kitchen jal dala tha aur fir-" Yash stopped Laksh in middle by saying, "Bas Laksh bas, tum jake padhai Karo, jaa yaha se."

[Once I asked him to cook and he almost ended u-]

[Laksh that's enough. Go and study.]

"Mene apna homework kar liya hain aur mujhe abhi aap dono ke sath time spent karna hain aur dekhna hain aap kese iss baar kitchen jalate ho." Laksh teased his elder brother, only to get a smack on his head from Yash

[I have completed my homework and I want to spent some time with you both. And of course I want see how you burn the kitchen this time.]

Yash looked at Kritika who was controlling her laugh by pressing her lips. "Kritika, let's start now." Yash said, his cheeks flushed in embarrassment.

"Haan. Toh aap ko kya banana hain?" She asked.

[So, what do you want to make?]

"Hum kya bana sakhte hain?" Yash asked another question in reply

[What can we make?]

"-jisse bhaiya kitchen na jala sake." Laksh continued Yash's question, laughing.

[-by which he doesn't burn the kitchen.]

Kritika laughed hearing this, but soon she covered it with a cough when Yash glanced at her.

"Okay. Ab mazak masti nahi, ab serious hote hain." Kritika said regaining her composure.

[Let's be serious now.]

"Didi, main serious hi hu." Laksh said, staring into her eyes. "Aesi koi recipe batana jis se bhaiya kitchen na jalae. Abhi aap ho toh aap sambhal loge ar jab aap nahi honge tab kya? Mera kya hoga fir?"

[Didi, I am serious.]

[Please tell some such recipe so that brother does not burn the kitchen. Now you are there so you can handle it, but what about when you are not there? What will happen to me then?]

"Oyee! Tu yaha se jaa toh. Bhaag yaha se!" Yash said, his voice irritated. "Kriti, tum Laksh pe dhyan maat do."

[Hey! Get out of here!]

[Kriti, don't pay attention to Laksh.]

"Haan toh hum kya bana sakhe hain?" He repeated his earlier question.

[Yes so what can we make?]

"Sab kuch."

[Everything.]

"Arey mera matlab ki joh easy ho banane mein aur jaldi baan bhi jaye." Yash explained.

[I mean something that is easy and fast to make.]

"Let me think." Kritika thought for a moment but nothing came to her mind. "Ugh... jab koi chiz yaad karni hoti hain tab yaad hi nahi aati." She groaned. "Aap dono ko kya khana hain?"

[Ughh... I don't remember things when I want to remember it.]

[What do you both like to it?]

"Palak paneer." Laksh replied before Yash could say anything. Kritika looked at Yash, who signaled with his eyes 'whatever he wishes.' She nodded.

"Okay so we need palak, paneer, tamatar, Hari Mirch, onion, ginger-garlic paste, jeera powder, coriander powder, haldi, garam masala, red chilli aur kali mirch, I hope I am not forgetting anything." She said as she tried to recall the recipe properly. "Ihope everything is there."

"Shayad sab hain. Kal hi hum dono sab leke aaye hain." Yash replied, then looked at Laksh asking him with his eyes if everything is there whatever she mentioned. Laksh nodded in replied.

[Maybe everything is there. Yesterday we brought everything.]

"Greatt!!! So we need to boil the palak first. Where's palak?" Her eyes scanned the fridge after she opened it.

"Here!" Laksh pointed.

"Voh dhaniya hain." Kritika corrected him. "Yeh raha!" Laksh pointed at something else this time. "Voh phudina ain." Kritika corrected him again.

[That's coriander.]

[Here it is.]

[That's mint leaves.]

"Sab ek jesa hi dikhta hain." Laksh said in defeat while Yash laughed at him.

[Everything looks same.]

"Yeh raha hain." She took it out, placing in on the kitchen counter and closing the fridge. "Laksh do one thing, arrange all the masalas I mentioned."

[Here it is.]

"What were the masalas? I forget." He innocently smiled.

"Jeera powder, coriander powder, haldi, garam masala, red chilli aurKali mirch." Yash answered.

Laksh and Kritika's eyes widened. "Aap ko yaad bhi ho gaya." Laksh said, impressed by his brother's remembering power.

[You remembered all this already.]

While Laksh arranged all the masalas that were needed for the recipes on the other side Kritika helped Yash in boiling the palak.

"Now take a big bowl filled with water and ice, aur yeh palak ko us bowl ke ander dalke 3-4 minutes rehne do." Yash id as Kritika instructed him.

Now take a big bowl filled with water and ice. And put this spinach inside the bowl for 3-4 minutes.]

"Ab yeh palak ko nikal ke squeeze it taki sari pani nikal gaye fir isse green chilli aur ice ke sath mixer mein blend kar di jiye." Kritika helped Yash in removing the water from the palak.

[Now take it out and squeeze it so that all the water comes out then blend the spinach with green chilli and ice i the mixer.]

"Laksh, will you chopped the tomatoes?" Kritika asked.

"Yes, didi." Laksh took 2 tomatoes as per Kritika's order and started chopping it while singing, "Aha tamatar bade mazedar, waha tamatar bade mazedar..." Yash shook his head at his younger brother saying "iska kuch nahi hoga." While Kritika laughed.

.

.

.

Following Kritika's order, Yash and Laksh prepared the palak paneer with her help. "Ab isse thodi der tak medium flame pe baan ne dijye." Hearing her words, Yash fasten the flame as it was on low flame before

[Now let it cook for some minutes on low flame.]

"So abhi roti banani hain." Kritika said, sighing.

[Now let's make chapatis]

"Here." Laksh placed a bowl which contained the dough which was required to make chapatis. "Hum ne pehle hi bana liya tha."

[We have already made it.]

"Good, isse Kam jaldi khatam ho jaye ga." Kritika clapped her hand playfully. "Pehle main aap ko dikhati hu kese banani hoti hain fir aap banana." Yash noded.

[Good, the task will finish quickly.]

[First I will demonstrate you then you will make it on your own.]

Yash and Laksh were impressed by how she make the small dough in a perfect circle and then effortlessly put in on the hot tawa and flipped it on the other side.

"Now your turn." Kritika move aside creating space for Yash to stand.

Taking a deep breath he started, remembering the things that Krtika did just few moments back.

"Bhaiya yeh aap ne konse desh ka map banaya hain." Laksh pointed, while laughing.

[Bhaiya which country's map have you made?]

"It's okay, it happens since it's your first time. You will get better with time." Kritika reassured him.

After some time chapatis were done. "Palak paneer must be done." Kritika said as the aroma of the dish filled theair. "Yash bhaiya, palak paneer ka taste check Karo."

[Yash bhaiya, now check the taste of palak paneer.]

Yash took a spoon half filled with palak panner and put it inside the mouth. He furrowed his brows. "Iska taste kuch alag hain."

[The taste is something different.]

"Kya baat kar rahe ho bhaiya, itni mehnat se banaya hain. Aesa nahi ho sakhta." He took the same spoon and tasted it. "Iska taste ajeeb hain."

[What are you talking about, you have made it with so much hard wor. It shouldn't be like this]

[This taste strange.]

Kritika tasted the food and said "namak kaam hain. Uper se daalo thoda." Yash took a pinch of salt and sprinkled it on the top, mixing it.

[Salt is less. Sprinkle it from the top.]

"Perfect!" Kritika exclaimed after tasting it.

"Now I will take my leave." Kritika said, walking towards the living room to arrange her stuff whislt the brothers followed her.

"Kriti didi rukho, khana khake jao." Laksh tried to convince Kritika to stay

[Kriti didi stay. Eat and go.]

"Nahi Laksh, I have to go somewhere else." She said, taking out her phone to see the messages.

"Accha thike, main drop kar deta hu tumhe." Yash offered to help.

[I will drop you.]

"It's okay bhaiya, main idhar paas mein Aditya ke ghar hi jaa rahi hu." Kritika declined his help. Hearing Aditya's name, Yash's brows went up, then nodded.

[It's okay bhaiya, I am going toAditya's house nearby.]

"So.. I will leave. Byeee." Yash's and Laksh's eyes lingered on her figure as walks out of the door.

"Bhaiya yeh Aditya kon hain?" Laksh asked, his voice curious.

[Bhaiya who is Aditya?]

" Jay bhaiya ka jani dushman." Yash replied to his younger brother with a chuckle as he shook his head, he then walks towards the kitchen.

[Jay's sworn enemy.]

Laksh stood in middle of the room, confused. "Heh? Jay bhaiyabich mein kaha se aaye?"

[Huh? How did Jay bhaiya came in between?]

Next day, Ishanvi and Rhea stood in middle of corridor, while talking Ishanvi's eyes fell on something, or should we say someone. She narrowed her eyes, then she gasped.

"Oyee!! Voh kon hain?" She said, shaking Rhea.

[Heyy! Who is she?]

"Kon? Kaha?" Rhea asked confused as she try to locate the person.

[Who? Where?

"Vaha par. Dekh." Ishanvi pointed far away where Krish was standing with a girl, talking. "Dekh kese Krish uske sath has rahe hain."

[Over there. Look.]

[Look how Krish is laughing with her.]

"Voh... Kaamini hain." Rhea said, shrugging her shoulder.

[She... is Kaamini.]

"Yeh Kaamini inta cheepak kyu rahi hain?" Isha asked, noticing how she hits Krish playfully while laughing and coninued touching him.

[Why is Kaamini clinging so much?]

"Kaamini Krish bhaiya ko apna best friend bulati aur Bhaiya Kaamini ko dost hi nahi mante." Rhea said, her eyes scanning elsewhere for someone. Aaj yeh aaye nahi kya. [He didn't came or what]

[Kaamini calls Krish bhaiya her best friend and Krish bhaiya don't even call her friend.]

"Toh fir itna has kyu rahe hain?" Isha folded her arms against her chest.

[Then why is he laughing so much?]

"Kyuki Kaamini hamari school ki football ki team mein hain toh voh dono hamesa football ki baat karte hain." Rhea sighed and said. "Pata nahi yeh team mein kyu hain, jabki isse aata hi nahi hain khelna ya sirf dikha wa karti hain ki usse aata nahi hain par usse pasand hain taki Krish bhaiya help kare uski."

[Because Kamini is in our shool's football team, they both always talk about football.]

[Don't know why she is in the team, since she doesn't know how to play or is just showing that she doesn't know how to play so Krish bhaiya can help her.]

"Sach mein?" Rhea nodded at Isha's question. "Kaamini toh Kamini nikli."

[Really?]

[Kaamini turns out to a rascal.]

Rhea laughed out loud catching attention of nearby students as Isha hits her on her arm. "Kese has rahi hain,sab dekh rahe hain."

[The way you are laughing, everyone is looking at you.]

To distract herself from the sight of Krish and Kaamini, Ishanvi's eyes started roaming around her but stopped at one particular point as she raised her brows.

"Vaha pe dekh." Ishanvi nudged Rhea.

[Look over there.]

"Kaha?" Rhea asked, confused again.

[Where?]

"Vaha pe Jay bhaiya aur Karan bhiaya ko dekh." She pointed at Jay and Karan who were standing near where Krish is standing, but their eyes were furious s they look at someone.

[Over there, look at Jay bhaiya and Karan bhaiya.]

Following their gaze, Isha and Rhea turned towards the direction where they both were glaring. They saw Kritika and Anaya talking to two boys.

"Yeh dusra ladka kon hain?" Isha asked Rhea, but her eyes still on the four figures talking. "Shaurya."

[Who is that other boy?]

"Yeh Karan bhaiya ka samjh aata hain ki voh aese kyu dekh rahe hain par what about Jay bhaiya?" Isha question to Rhea, hoping that Kritika is the reason, hat Jay is jealous that Aditya is talking to Kriti.

[I can understand why is Karan bhaiya glaring at him but what about Jay bhaiya?]

"It's because Jay bhaiya hates Aditya." Rhea answered.

"Why?" Isha shifted her gaze from them to Rhea.

"Pata nhi." Rhea shrugged her shoulder. "Kuch hua tha un dono ke bich pehle se."

[Don't know]

[Something happened between them before.]

"Yeh Anaya ko pata hain ki Kaan bhaiya ko uss pe crush hain?" Isha asked, taking the interest in the gossip.

[Do Anaya knows that Karan bhaiya has a crush on her?]

"Haan, usse pata hain aur yeh baat Karan bhaiya bhi jante hain." Rhea answered.

[Yes, She knows and even Karan bhaiya knows that she knows.]

"Ohhhh. Aur dekh yeh Kamini kese abhi bhi Krish pe cheep ki hui hain." Isha said, her voice irritated as she saw how they both were walking towards their classroom and their classroom were beside each other. "Idhar ek humara classrom hain joh iss kone mein hain."

[Ohh and look how she is still clinging to Krish.]

[Our classroom is the only class which is situated in this corner.]

"Sach mein."

[True.]

"Aur ek baat puch ni thi mujhe ki-" Words disappeared from her mouth when she heard a voice from behind.

[And I wanted to ask one more thin-]

"Baatein hi gayi tum dono ki." They both turned back to see their class teacher, standing with her eyes narrowed at them. "Ya Chai-coffee, nasta uch Du taki tum dono yaha gap-sap hi karti raho auntiyo ki tarah."

[Is your both chit-chat done?]

[Or should I bring tea-coffee and snacks for you both so that you both can gossip like aunties.]

"Class kabke chalu ho gaye hain." They looked left and right, only to find the whole corridor empty except them and their teacher.

[Your class have started.]

"Umm..." Rhea gulped. "Sorry ma'am." She nudged Isha to apologize.

"Sorry ma'am." Isha said with her head down.halo jao apne class mein." Sakshi dismissed them. They quickly rushed towards the class.

[Go in your class.]
