“Wake up, you idiot....it’s already 8”
“Please swati didi 10 more mins”
“Aman, you will miss your college bus”
“No problem, I will take your scooty”
“No ways” said Swati.
This was the usual morning for this brother and sister.
Both of them had a very good bonding. But like most of siblings do....they keep on fighting and they dont even need a topic for that.
“ok Aman. Its 8.30 now and you are on your own. I am leaving for office. “
As soon as swati leaves aman wakes up.
“Hello, Rohan”
“she has left, lets begin phase 2 of our plan”
“Aman, are you sure you want to do this? “
“yes I am sure”
“But what if she will catch us doing this?”
“Don’t worry she won’t.”
In the evening when Swati returns home. She looks for her brother in the house but she does not find him.
She tries to call him on his mobile but it was switched off.
“Ok”, “Idiot must have missed his bus back as well. He should be here in a while.”
Swati and Aman used to live alone as their parents had passed away last year in a road accident. Since then Swati had taken up the responsibility of her kid brother as well as the house.
It was 11 in the night and Aman was still not home.
Swati was really worried now and she had already called all the relatives and friends but was of no use. No one knew anything about Aman .
Finally, she decided to go to police station. She was locking the door when she saw Aman entering the house with the naughty look on the face and said “where are you going?”
Swati just throws her bag at him.
“Where were you? I was so afraid.”
Aman starts smiling....
Swati slaps him. “what are you smiling at?” and she bursts into tears and hugs him.
“Sorry didi, I was unable to call you.”
“But where were you.....”
Aman says “Look who is there…...”
It was Anil. Swati’s to be husband.
Anil and Swati were college friends, they knew each other for last 4 years now. Anil proposed to Swati on the last day of the college which Swati happily accepted. The two families had no issues as both of them were very happy with it. Anil stood by Swati when her parents died in road accident.But lately Anil was feeling like ignored as Swati had set all her attention towards Aman. They had a big fight over this and as a result Swati had refused for marriage until Aman's studies gets over which was unacceptable for Anil’s family.
Rohan, Aman's friend, said “Didi, me and Aman had gone to Anil's house and had discussion with him and his parents over the issues and they have agreed to wait till Aman's studies gets over.”
"Didi, I know you don't show it but you miss him very much. Please don't let him go because of me." said Aman with tears. “If you are not happy, how will I be happy?”
Swati had no word. She was just standing still.
“Your kid brother is no more a kid, Swati” said Anil.
Moral of the story, every relation has its own place, don't overlap them.
