Chapter 28 - The Two Brothers

Mita and Tanmay left the next morning after breakfast.

Adi and I shared an easy camaraderie. I learnt that Adi was a genius, and at age twenty two, he had already studied five different professional courses, spoke eighteen languages and played seven instruments. His favourites were particle physics and molecular biology. He loved to experiment, and Veer had built him his very own laboratory.

"Brilliant," I said reverently, thinking he and Sameer would get along like a house on fire. I told him about Sameer, who was as much a genius as my husband and these two extraordinary young men - the two brothers that I somehow ended up rescuing.

Adi looked surprised as well as pleased to learn that we were related. In fact, his reaction was not much different from his older brother's reaction the previous night.

"You are Furry bhaiya's wife? Seriously? You are not joking?" Adi asked, his pretty eyes widening to the size of tennis balls.
