Viren and Jeevika quickly went back inside the hall to say bye to all of Viren's friends. They wanted to get back to the resort as soon as possible. As they reached their rooms they cleaned up and got comfy. Jeevika was silent the whole time, not wanting to say a word to Viren at all. She was irritated, pissed, annoyed. She felt a wide variety of emotions right now because of her husband. Why was she letting him decide what she wants to do with her career? She was just getting convinced by the second that this separation and this job was just not a good idea for their lives. She didn't know though how to convince him, and then she remembered one person who Viren would never ever say no to, Veera! j - "Perfect. As soon as Viren goes to sleep I'll call Veera quietly and tell her everything and use her help to convince Viren to take his wish back" she said to herself getting excited.
When Jeevika came outside the bathroom she saw Viren on his phone laying inside their bed.
j - "He doesn't even look sad to be sending me away. Pathetic husband I have" she said angrily to herself
v - "Oh hello... What are you doing there?"
Jeevika went near him and got inside the bed cuddling next to him. No matter how much she hated him sometimes, she could never resist coming close to him and just sleeping on him. He was her personal pillow, her favoritest pillow ever!
j - "What time is it Viren?"
v - "Almost 3am"
j - "Really?"
v - "Yeah, now close your eyes and sleep"
j - "What if I don't want to sleep"
v - "Don't, let me sleep at least then"
j - "Irriating" she said annoyingly towards him.
Viren responded to that by kissing her forhead. He wrapped his arm around her and dozed off to sleep quickly. As soon as Jeevika could tell he was fast asleep, she slowly got out of his embrace and picked up her cell phone. She quietly went inside the bathroom taking her cell phone with her. She quickly messaged Veera to ask her if she was free. When she got a reply from her saying she was, she called her up instantly.
vr - "Bhabhi how are you? I miss you both so much"
j - "We miss you too. I really wish we had all come together here. Goa would have been such a blast had you all come too"
vr - "Oh please, you know you're loving it there with just you and my brother. The lovebirds finally get time alone"
j - "Shutup, its nothing like that"
vr - "Mhmm sure. So how many days left till you guys come"
j - "Like two more weeks since we are stopping in London too"
vr - "Oh yeah"
j - "Veera can I ask you for a favor?"
vr - "Obviously"
j - "Whatever I say you have to somehow convince your brother okay?"
vr - "Is everything okay? You're scarring me"
j - "Yeah its just that I..."
Jeevika was about to finish till she saw Viren standing near her. His head was halfway inside the bathroom as he was trying to listen to the conversation. He looked at Jeevika with an evil smile making her realize that she had been caught.
v - "Its been way to long since you and Veera have gossiped and irritated me right?" he said getting inside the bathroom.
j - "What the hell are you doing here?" she said still holding the phone.
v - "So I'm guessing you're telling Veera everything and trying to convince her to convince me somehow to not let you go"
vr - "Bhabhi whats going on?"
Viren came closer to Jeevika and took the phone from her and put it on speaker.
v - "Hey Veera"
vr - "Bhai whats going on?"
v - "So someone got an offer to move to Berkeley and that someone doesn't want to go"
vr - "Wait a minute, is Jeevika bhabhi moving? And what about you?"
v - "Obviously right now I can't leave my job so she doesn't want to leave me and go"
vr - "But both of you won't be together? I mean are you crazy? Living in separate cities. You both are married now, this is the real deal, not just some side relationship"
j - "Exactly Veera" she said pompously
vr - "Bhai are you crazy? No like seriously? Bhabhi you're a doctor please do a full check up on my brother and diagnosis which mental illness he has"
v - "I have no mental illness both of you do. Jeevika didn't I tell you we're not talking about this anymore? And theres no need to bring in my sister into this. We all know she's going to take your side no matter what. Its decided and done with. If I catch you both arguing or even talking about this again, you will see the worst of me. Understood both of you"
vr - "Keep your blackmail to yourself. This is not fair. You can't send her away from us. Are you having an affair bhai? Why are you sending away the sister I always dreamed of having"
j - "Because he doesn't love me. I bet you he is having an affair and wants to get rid of me, jerk, loser, idiot..."
v - "Both of you shut up. Veera I'm turning the phone off now. We will call you tomorrow okay"
vr - "But bhai"
v - "Bye Veera" he said cutting the phone.
v - "Shall we go back to sleep now?" he said walking out the bathroom.
Jeevika was too angry to even reply. She was too angry to sleep or do anything even. She stayed in the bathroom sulking away not knowing how to convince him, and now he had even taken her phone. Life was a mess!
