Sameer has just started working on his laptop when he heard sam calling out for sammar even before he entered his room.

Sam "champ, kahan hai, aaj uthane kyun nahi aaya tu, late ho gaya main. How could you..... " And he trailed off when he saw sameer glaring at him.

Sameer got up for the chair, held sam's hand and dragged him out of the room. Once they were out sameer whacked sam hard.

Sam "ouch, bhaiya insaan hu main, mandir ki ghanti nahi jo subah subah bajane lag jate ho"

Sameer held sam's ear and gave it a good twist "itna shor machane se pehle ek baar kamre me dekh to le, tabiyat theek nahi hai uski, abhi abhi soya hai aur tu poora ghar sar pe uthaye huye hai"

Sam "sammar ki tabiyat theek nahi hai? Kya hua usse? Anything serious bhai? Wo theek hai na? doctor ko bulaye?"

Sameer was touched by his concern "wo abhi theek hai bachcha, thoda fever tha par ab aaram kar raha hai, pari dekh kar gayi hai, breakfast bhi kar liya usne aur medicine bhi le li. You don't worry."

Sam "ab itna paani me khelega aur icecream khayega to ye to hoga hi bhai. Ek baar theek ho jaye ye fir iski class leta hu. "

Sameer "uski class lene se pehle ye batao beta aapko roj sammar uthane aata hai? Bada Tu hai ya wo. Sharam ni aati chote bhai ko alarm clock ki tarah use karte" Saying that sameer whacked him again.

Sam "ouch, kya hai yaar aapka, subah subah shuru ho gaye, maine usse nahi bola ki mujhe utha, wo khud aane laga uthane ke liye, to i thought ki bachcha hai, kar lene du usse apne mann ki, nahi to main khud roj time se utth jata hu."

Sameer "haan kitna time se utth jata hai ye bohut achche se pata hai mujhe. Ab ja jaldi breakfast kar aur nikal college ke liye, yahan main hu uska dhyan rakhne ke liye. Agar lecture miss huye na to dekh lena. "

Sam "ja raha hun, aapko na bhai apna check up kara lena chahiye, jab tak aap mujhe din me 2-4 laga na do, mere kaan na kheech lo mujhe dhamka na do tab tak na aapka daily dose of nutrition poora hi nahi hota. Please get it checked, aisa na ho ye problem kisi din itni badh jaye ki aapko healthy rakhne ke liye meri health par side effects aa jaye" Saying this he ran into sammar's room.

Sam went near sammar stroked his hair and kissed his forehead "college jaa raha hu champ, thodi der me aa jaunga, tab tak theek ho ja, fir dono video games khelenge.

Sam left for college and sameer again started working in his room. After 2 hours sammar woke up and saw sameer working on his laptop in his room. He happily smiled and was glad that sameer was there to take care of him. He has understood by now that sameer really loves him and that he is not just an unwanted responsibility for him. He was lost in these thoughts when sameer saw him.

Sameer "utth gaya bachcha, how are you feeling now, sar dard to nahi ho raha, fever abhi bhi hai kya?" Saying all this sameer went near sammar and started to check his temperature. It was normal and sameer sighed in relief.

Sammar "bhaiyu kahan hai bhaiya?"

Sameer "wo college gaya hai beta, shaam tak aa jayega. Tu bata kya khayega? "

Sammar "ice cream khane doge?" He asked showing his innocent doe eyes.

Sameer "no way, ab 2hafte tak no ice cream, you will only eat what's healthy for you. So no ice cream Or any other junk food for next 2weeks"

Sammar's face fell listening to this and he said "ab itni bhi hitlergiri mat karo na bhaiya, main 2 hafte tak ice cream ke bina kaise rahunga?" He asked pouting

"Sammar i am warning you, don't you even think of having all this junk when you are already not well. Agar maine tujhe next 2 hafte me kuch bhi ulta seedha khate dekha na beta to you'll not like the consequences. Understand?"

Sammar just nodded.

"I need a verbal reply to that sammar" Said sameer

"Haan haan, nahi khaunga kuch bhi ulta seedha. Bhaiyu theek kehte hai aap na sachchi hitler ho" Said sammar still holding the pout

Sameer "achcha beta, apne bhaiyu ki tarah hitler bolna to seekh gaya, uske wala treatment bhi chahiye tujhe." Sammar's eyes widened and he just shook his head.

In the evening Sam and sameer were trying to coax sammar into taking his medicines. He has taken the tablets but was not ready to take the syrup.

"Syrup nahi lena bhaiyu, ye bohut kadwa hai, meine tablets to le li na, ab ye nahi, Please na bhaiya, Please Please Please."

Sam "beta itna bhi kadwa nahi hai, bas ek baar lele please, medicine theek se nahi lega to tabiyat kaise theek hogi."

Sammar just covered his mouth with his hands and shook his head.

"beta pls aise nahi karte, Tu to mera samajhdaar bachcha hai na, chal jaldi muh khol aur syrup pi le" Said sameer bringing s spoonful of syrup near his mouth.

Sammar "nahi, mein nahi piyunga, ye bohut yucky hai. There's no way I am having it."

Just then pari entered his room "koi baat nahi beta, nahi peena syrup to mat pi, main abhi 2 injection de deti hu fir na syrup peena padega aur na hi tablets khani padegi"

Sammar immediately drank the syrup and said "kise nahi peena syrup bhabhi, it's so good, mujhe to lagta hai doodh me Bournvita ki jagah ye syrup milake peena chahiye, it's so good". He replied really freaking out at the mention of injection. All three of them laughed hard at his shenanigans.

A week passed, sammar fully recovered and was very comfortable with his brothers and bhabhi by now. Now that he was comfortable with them, they all got to see his childish and naughty side. Though he was always respectful but now he demands their time, express his likes and dislikes freely and also acts like a partner in crime to Sam.

One such night when his two elder brothers retired to their respective rooms sammar had a craving for ice cream and he tip-toed his way to the kitchen.

He open the fridge and took out a big tub of ice cream. He was about to have his first spoon, when someone switched on the lights. Sammar turned around to see the person and was shocked to see sameer standing there. Sameer came to kitchen to get himself some water but was greeted with his naughty little brother.

Sammar's eyes widened and he gave a nervous smile to sameer who by now was standing in front of sammar.

Sameer "kya ho raha hai sammar, what are you doing here beta"

Sammar "kuch nahi bhaiya, main to bas pani pine aaya tha"

Sameer "tera pani ice cream tub me hota hai beta?"

Sammar gave out a nervous chuckle and said "ice cream, Arre ye yahan kaise aa gayi, lagta hai maine galti se water bottle ki jagah ye nikal liya, koi baat nahi, ab mujhe pyaas nahi hai, main isse wapas rakh deta hu" Saying this he kept the ice cream back in the freezer.

He once again looked at an irritated sameer who was glaring at him, sammar smiled nervously and said "raat kafi ho gayi hai na bhaiya, mujhe to bohut jor se neend aa rahi hai, aapko bhi aa rahi hogi, chalo main sone jata hu, goodnight bhaiya."

He was about to run back to his room when sameer caught his ear and gave it a harsh twist. "Ice cream aur junk food ke liye kya bola tha maine sammar".

Sammar " Ouch, aahh bhaiya please chhodo na, dukh raha hai"

Sameer twisted his ear a little more "not the answer I am looking for beta. Bata kya bola tha maine?"

Sammar "Arre jab aapko hi yaad nahi hai to mujhe kaise yaad hoga, ouch pls chodo na bhaiya, lag rahi hai"

Sameer stopped twisting his ear but didn't leave it and said "don't test my patients beta, jaldi bol"

Sammar "no ice cream and junk food for 2 weeks"

Sammer "and are your 2 weeks up" Asked sameer but when he got no reply he gave a little tug to sammar's ear

Sammar "aaahh bhaiya ouch, nahi hua abhi poora time, sorry bhaiya, firse nahi karunga, please chhod do na, aapke bachche ko lag rahi hai, dekho na kaan laal ho gaya mera"

Seeing his plight sameer let go of his ear and said "next time you pull a stunt like this beta, we will have this conversation in my study and will discuss the consequences for you as well."

Sammar chocked on his breath listening to this, though he himself haven't experienced any of sameer's infamous sessions in his study by now but he has seen his bhaiyu getting it many times, followed by his bhaiyu writing lines, kneeling, raising hands, doing situps etc. And seeing him like that has told him he doesn't want to be a part of those conversation that sameer has in his study.

Sammar "Arre bhaiya aap to serious hi ho gaye, main pakka fir se aisa kuch nahi karunga, mujhe nahi jana aapki study me, ye special treatment aap bhaiyu ke liye hi rakho. Main aise hi sudhar jaunga. Ab ye session ho gaya ho to main apne room me jaun?"

Sameer bit back his smile that formed on his lips seeing his younger brothers dramatics and he nodded his head. That was enough for sammar to run from there to his room and sleep without any second thoughts. Once sammar left the kitchen and was out of ear shot sameer laughed out loud and retired to his room.

How was this chapter?
