"Hello Mahi bhai." Rohit and Virat said together.

"Cheeku and Ro you two?" MSD asked.

"Yes bhai." they both said.

"Aaj dono unity mein chal rahe ho hello bhai yes bhai what happened?" MSD asked covering up in front of his boys.

"Bhai you dont need to fake anything to us." Rohit said.

"Yes bhai, everytime we are down, you are there for us today we are there for you." Virat said.

"Tell us bhai." both of them said together and MSD reduced the smile on his face, he knew that his boys were there for him, and they would listen to him.

"We know that you adored Sushant not only as an actor but also for the person he was." Virat said.

"He had spent a lot of time with you before the movie to know you and I am sure that you were quite attached to him as well." Rohit said.

MSD was happy how his kiddos were so concerned and understood him so well.

"Sushant was like a younger brother to me, there was no one else who could play my life in a movie." MSD said deciding that pouring his heart out to someone is the best option. Virat and Rohit for the first time did not feel jealous when MSD called someone else except them or someone outside the team a younger brother.

"He spent a lot of time with me before the movie to know me well, he stayed at my house also and accompanied me everywhere and even during the making there were times he would call me and ask bhai how did you play this shot I cant do it, we had an amazing time during the promotions and I even remembering hugging him very tightly after watching the movie." MSD said, he really felt that he lost someone very close to him.

"I kept telling him how he was the best in the business and he will go far one day and he was far too humble to accept that always, but I didnt know that one day he would go far and that too this far." MSD said.

"He was an amazing person bhai." Virat said, he wanted to sooth MSD but he couldnt hug him so words had to compensate.

"He was very humble, he also mixed up with all of us really well when he used to some to observe how you play and all." Rohit said, fumbling with his words as well.

Today, Virat and Rohit realized how hard it is to sooth someone and make them feel better, they were themselves feeling worse. They realized how hard it must be for their Mahi bhai everytime they were down, when it came to their kids like Harry, Rahul, Jassi, Kuli, Shreyas, Rishabh or any other youngster it was still easier because they were all innocent and would listen to their big bros but they couldnt use the same way they comforted their kiddos to comfort Mahi bhai.

"I have had all your backs at almost all times, no matter what, I have always been the first person you all or anyone could reach out to when they are feeling low. Only if it was the same with Sushant, I understand what any of you are thinking from your face and expressions, but his smile was deceptive, I kept thinking that he is the happiest and the most care free person out there but I was wrong." MSD said.

"Bhai you were are and always will be the first person we will ever reach out to whenever we are low, infact we dont even need to reach out to you, you are there in front of us before we utter a word." Virat said, trying to make MSD feel that he is at no fault.

"Yes bhai, you are the best big brother anyone can ever have, no one's words sooth us the way your words do." Rohit said trying to imply that his words have the magic to heal anybody.

"Then he could have come to me like you all do. Maybe he didnt consider me as his own." MSD said.

"He was always a boy full of life with me, going around me asking questions, always curious, noticing every detail here and there, trying to impress me. When I saw the movie about my own life for a second I forgot that it was someone else playing my role, I felt like my whole life was put up out there on the screen by me myself, but it was him who worked endlessly and very hard." MSD said.

"Yes bhai we understand." Virat and Rohit said trying to make their bhai open up on this.

"I always kept in touch with him even after the movie, I kept sending him messages encouraging him whenever I saw any new movie of his, he always seemed in the perfect place but none of us knew what was within him, all bolted up." MSD said.

"Only if he talked to me, or only if I called him at least once in the past three months when we all were free yet caught up with ourselves."MSD said.

Virat or Rohit did not know what to say they were speechless, they remained silent, sometimes silence is the best option.

"One call, one call would have made then difference. Before the movie he used to always be behind me, bhai this bhai that, once I was like mere bhai thoda aram karle bad mein aram se jo puchna hain puch lena. Par I did not mean this sort of aaram, aisa aaram bhi koi aaram hain kya?" MSD asked.

"No bhai." Virat and Rohit answered knowing that the reply wasnt necessary, but they felt like they had to reply.

"Stress sabko hota hain, we are stressed out about how we will perform, about the future and what not, but sharing how we feel with someone is so important, smiling just to show people I am all good makes no sense. Cry if you feel like it, laugh if you feel like it." MSD said.

"But dont leave like this. " he added.

"We are given such an amazing body by god, a perfectly sane and intelligent mind, a heart to feel emotions, our mouth to express our emotions, ears to listen to others emotion. What is the need to do something like this despite all what we have?" MSD asked like a kid.

"Bhai all we can do now is pray, pray that he gets all the love up there, pray that he can rest in peace with all out prayers for him." Virat said/

"Yes bhai Vi is right." Rohit said getting confused about what to say.

"I still remember telling him that life is full of bouncers, but we need to keep ducking them. Life is not over till the last ball is bowled, unless we loose hope and think that we are out." MSD said.

"You both are right, right now I should just pray that he gets all my prayers and remembers that this brother from another world now still loves and remembers him." MSD said, strongly.

"We all will remember him bhai we all will." Rohit said.

"Bhai are you feeling better?" Virat asked.

"You two are the best after talking to you both I am feeling so much more lighter, you can call the rest on line." MSD said.

"Bhai you are such an aantaryami." Rohit said.

"They messaged us infinity times, I will add them in they want to talk to you." Virat said.

In no time the whole team was in the conference call.

"Bhai we are always there for you." Jassi said.

"Yes bhai you can talk to us." Kuldeep said.

"We know that you usually comfort us par hum itne bhi nalayak nahi hain ki we cant comfort you as well." Hardik said and this made MSD smile.

"He means he he is nalayak not us, you should be calling us before anything in the world" Rahul said.

"I am fine my kiddos, I know that even you can be there for me like I am there for you." MSD said.

He knew how much his kiddos might be worrying for him and they were right, its okay for him to break down in front of his kiddos just like they do. He just wished that he would have been there for another kiddo of his who remained silent and chose to keep himself untold.
