जुनून: His Obsession Or Love
Ep 4
4 A.M in the early morning
It was that soft, bluish hour before dawn when Banaras was still wrapped in its own dreams. The ghats were silent, the river shimmering faintly under the moonlight, and in the Suryawanshi guesthouse, chaos was just about to begin…
Mahima Suryawanshi ( Ml mom)
*claps loudly* Wake up, heroes! The holy river won’t wait for your beauty sleep.
Aaryan Suryawanshi(ML)
The holy river can… 🥱 … take a rain check.*groaning, turning*
Advik Suryawanshi (ML brother)
*muffled under blanket* Tell the river I’m unavailable.😪
Mahima Suryawanshi ( Ml mom)
Ashwin!
Ashwin Khanna ( ML bff)
*instantly sits up* Ji, Ma. I’m up. See? Ready.
Sarthak Suryawanshi (ML brother)
*springs up* Yessss! Ghat snan at 4 AM! I’ve been waiting for this!
Sarthak Suryawanshi (ML brother)
👈 fully excited
Aaryan Suryawanshi(ML)
Sarthak, you’re not human. *glares half-asleep*
Sarthak Suryawanshi (ML brother)
Correction— it's enthusiast.(⌐■-■)
Mahima Suryawanshi ( Ml mom)
BOYS
Suryawanshi's Guards
Ji, Ma’am!*marching in*
Mahima Suryawanshi ( Ml mom)
Drag these two logs out.*points Aaryan and Advik*
Aaryan Suryawanshi(ML)
Excuse me! I’m your son, the heir, not a sack of potatoes.*sits up*
Suryawanshi's Guards
With all respect, sir, orders are orders. *salutes*
Advik Suryawanshi (ML brother)
Traitors…*half asleep*
Mahima Suryawanshi ( Ml mom)
Exactly. Loyal to me. Unlike you.→_→
Suryawanshi's Guards
*grins* Team BIG BOSS, always!
Aaryan Suryawanshi(ML)
Wow. Guards betraying their king. Nice.*stares*
Shravan Suryawanshi (ML dad)
What’s the noise? It’s 4 AM, for heaven’s sake.*walking in, yawning* 🥱
Mahima Suryawanshi ( Ml mom)
Exactly. For heaven’s sake, wake them up!
Shravan Suryawanshi (ML dad)
*sits on chair* I vote ✋ we skip.
Snan can wait. Sleep can’t.
Mahima Suryawanshi ( Ml mom)
Oh, perfect. Father and sons—sleeping alliance.😒
Sarthak Suryawanshi (ML brother)
*snickers* That makes it 3 vs 3 now.
Ashwin Khanna ( ML bff)
Not me. I’m on Ma’s side.*calmly*
Mahima Suryawanshi ( Ml mom)
See? At least one child values discipline.*proudly pats Ashwin*
Aaryan Suryawanshi(ML)
Mumma’s pet.*mumble*
Advik Suryawanshi (ML brother)
Maa, let me sleep for five more minutes.*half-awake*
Mahima Suryawanshi ( Ml mom)
Five more minutes and the sun will rise
Suryawanshi's Guards
And then the ghats will be crowded, Ma’am.
Suryawanshi's Guards
Better to go now, sir.
Aaryan Suryawanshi(ML)
Stop being her fan club.*to guards* (T_T)
Suryawanshi's Guards
Can’t help it, sir. She’s scarier than you. ┐( ˘_˘)┌
Shravan Suryawanshi (ML dad)
*laughing* Facts.
Mahima Suryawanshi ( Ml mom)
Careful. You’re next.*glares at Shravan*
Shravan Suryawanshi (ML dad)
Yes, Ma’am.*straightens*
(٥↼_↼)
Sarthak Suryawanshi (ML brother)
Bhai, come on! This is adventure! Imagine—silent ghats, cool water—*shakes Aaryan*🤩✨
Aaryan Suryawanshi(ML)
Imagine—warm blanket, deep sleep—(◡ ω ◡)
Advik Suryawanshi (ML brother)
And hot chai delivered to bed.*sleep-talking* (ʃƪ＾3＾）
Mahima Suryawanshi ( Ml mom)
BOYS ! Strategy B.
Suryawanshi's Guards
Strategy B?
Mahima Suryawanshi ( Ml mom)
Sprinkle water on them.
Aaryan Suryawanshi(ML)
Don’t you dare— *gets splashed by Mahima*
Advik Suryawanshi (ML brother)
*Gets splashed* Earthquake?!*jumps*
Aaryan Suryawanshi(ML)
*coughing* Mutiny! This is mutiny!
'Mutiny' means 'rebellion'
Sarthak Suryawanshi (ML brother)
Best morning ever!*Laughs*
Mahima Suryawanshi ( Ml mom)
Out. Now. Before I carry you myself.
Shravan Suryawanshi (ML dad)
That I’d pay to see.*chuckles*
Mahima Suryawanshi ( Ml mom)
You’ll pay if you don’t move too.*sharp glare*
Shravan Suryawanshi (ML dad)
I was just warming up.*stands quickly*
Ashwin Khanna ( ML bff)
Ready, Ma.*buttoning kurta*
Sarthak Suryawanshi (ML brother)
Same!
Aaryan Suryawanshi(ML)
This is torture. Pure torture. *mutters, dragging feet* (눈‸눈)
Advik Suryawanshi (ML brother)
*holding pillow* I’m bringing this to the ghat. (-_-メ)
Suryawanshi's Guards
Pillow in snan? Sir, that’s innovation.(●__●)
Suryawanshi's Guards
Historic moment for Banaras.(●__●)
Aaryan Suryawanshi(ML)
Shut. Up. Both of you.
Mahima Suryawanshi ( Ml mom)
Everyone, line up. *hands on hips*
Sarthak Suryawanshi (ML brother)
Reporting for duty! *marches like soldier*
Ashwin Khanna ( ML bff)
Ready.
Aaryan Suryawanshi(ML)
*half asleep, walking crooked* Reporting for… sleep.
Advik Suryawanshi (ML brother)
Reporting for chai.(个_个)
Shravan Suryawanshi (ML dad)
Reporting for regret.(个_个)
Suryawanshi's Guards
Reporting for Mahima Ma’am!
Mahima Suryawanshi ( Ml mom)
*smiles triumphantly* That’s my army. Now march to the ghats!
And so, while Banaras still slept under the bluish dawn, the Suryawanshi household stumbled toward the ghats—some with excitement, some with resentment, and one with a pillow in hand. The holy river would witness not just a ritual bath, but a comedy of epic proportions.
On the way through Banaras lanes, 4:20 AM.
Aaryan Suryawanshi(ML)
*dragging his feet* Someone carry me.😫
Advik Suryawanshi (ML brother)
I agree with you bhai… Any Volunteers to carry us ?
Sarthak Suryawanshi (ML brother)
*energetic* I’ll carry both of you! 💪
Aaryan Suryawanshi(ML)
Don’t.❌ You’ll drop us in a pothole.🙂
Shravan Suryawanshi (ML dad)
Banaras have no potholes. Only surprises.
Mahima Suryawanshi ( Ml mom)
Focus. Walk straight.
Suryawanshi's Guards
*whispers to other guard* Sir Aaryan looks like a zombie. (─.─||）
Suryawanshi's Guards
More like a bridegroom after the wedding night. (~‾▿‾)~
Aaryan Suryawanshi(ML)
(turns slowly) 😑 I heard that.
Mahima Suryawanshi ( Ml mom)
Ignore them. They’re motivated by loyalty.
Shravan Suryawanshi (ML dad)
Loyalty? Looks more like comedy.→_→
Advik Suryawanshi (ML brother)
Maa, my pillow is slipping.(T_T)
Mahima Suryawanshi ( Ml mom)
Leave the pillow. Simple 😒
Advik Suryawanshi (ML brother)
Never. It’s my emotional support.
Sarthak Suryawanshi (ML brother)
*points ahead* Bhai! Look, the first glimpse of Ganga!
Ashwin Khanna ( ML bff)
Beautiful. Peaceful.*smiles softly*
Aaryan Suryawanshi(ML)
Mocking me, aren’t you? (눈‸눈)
Ashwin Khanna ( ML bff)
*calmly* No. Just awake.
Advik Suryawanshi (ML brother)
🥱 Awake? What’s that?
Suryawanshi's Guards
Sir, this banter is keeping us awake more than chai.┐( ˘_˘)┌
Suryawanshi's Guards
True. Better than theatre.(⌐■-■)
Shravan Suryawanshi (ML dad)
*laughs* This is theatre. Directed by your Ma’am.
Mahima Suryawanshi ( Ml mom)
Thank you for recognizing. Now hush 🤫. We’re close.
Sarthak Suryawanshi (ML brother)
Race till the steps?*excited*
Mahima Suryawanshi ( Ml mom)
No! You’ll fall and break your bones.
Aaryan Suryawanshi(ML)
Let him. Maybe then we can go back to sleep. →_→
Advik Suryawanshi (ML brother)
*rubbing eyes* Tempting idea.
Sarthak Suryawanshi (ML brother)
You people are boring.→_→
Ashwin Khanna ( ML bff)
We’re practical.┐( ˘_˘)┌
Mahima Suryawanshi ( Ml mom)
*snaps* Enough. Everyone, stop arguing. See? The ghat is right there.
Suryawanshi's Guards
Mission accomplished, Ma’am.( ꈍᴗꈍ)
Suryawanshi's Guards
Operation “Wake the Logs” successful.( ꈍᴗꈍ)
Aaryan Suryawanshi(ML)
*gritting teeth* One more word, and both of you are unemployed. (-_-メ)
Mahima Suryawanshi ( Ml mom)
Not under my watch.
Shravan Suryawanshi (ML dad)
Face it, son. You’ve been overruled. *to Aaryan, teasingly*
Advik Suryawanshi (ML brother)
*half asleep, hugging pillow* River or no river, I’m diving back into this pillow.
Mahima Suryawanshi ( Ml mom)
*sighs*
The bluish dawn was now giving way to streaks of gold as the Suryawanshi family finally reached the ghat. The stone steps were cool beneath their feet, the air damp with river mist, and though grumbles, yawns, and banter filled their walk, there was an undeniable magic in arriving together.
Mahima led like a general, the guards her loyal soldiers, Sarthak a bundle of enthusiasm, Ashwin quietly obedient, Advik half-asleep with his pillow, and Aaryan muttering royal complaints—but beneath it all, it was clear: this was not just a family ritual. It was a memory in the making.
