Advertisement
Swara was lost in his touch and was enjoying the moment while Sanskar also unknowingly hugging her and feeling unknown calmness in his heart. Suddenly, Sanskar's phone rings and both come back in their sense. Swara sees their position and immediately seperate herself from Sanskar and turned her face away from him. Sanskar was also shocked to realize what he was doing and was cursing himself for that. Sanskar look at Swara who was avoiding to look at him.
Sanskar (hesitate): I ..I m sorry Swara. I don't know how did this happen?
Swara nodded looking away from him. The phone was ringing continuously. Sanskar took the call. Swara went to washroom to get change.
After sometime, Sanskar disconnect the call after talking. Swara also come out of washroom. She avoid to look at him. Sanskar noticed it and he was also feeling awkward to talk to her. So, he thought to change the topic.
Sanskar: um.. mm.. Swara.
Swara looked at him.
Sanskar: Actually, Laksh. It was his call.
Swara expression changed to worry.
Sanskar noticed it and said: Don't worry. I talked to him. He is fine now
He just need sometime. He will back in morning. For now, he is at farmhouse.
Swara get relieved and nodded at him with smile. Sanskar smiled too but again awkwardness build up between them.
Sanskar: Um.. It's late now. I think we should sleep. Good night.
Swara nodded again and both lied on the bed on their respective sides facing their back to each other.
Sanskar (monologue): What was that? How can I loose control over myself? What kind of feeling is it? Why I wanted to stay like that? I never felt like this even with Kavita. Why? I wanted to slap Ragini for talking nonsense about her. I was not able to see her tears. (He closed his eyes then opened it) No, no, It's nothing. I m thinking too much. Yeah, It was all because she is my friend. That's it. Yes Sanskar, now stop thinking about all this and sleep.
He closed his eyes and sleep. While sleep was far away from Swara's eyes. She was continuously thinking About recent incident.
Swara (monologue): Oh my god!! How can I do this? I always hide my feelings from Sanskar but today? Oh god, I don't know what happened but I felt so soothing and blissful feeling when I was in his embrace. I just wanted to stay like that till eternity. It was like the world stopped. I never thought that Sanskar would be so close to me. It was like I m dreaming. But it was not oh no no! Not again. What am I thinking? Sanskar can never love me back and I know it from beginning. I should stop myself. Why Sanskar? why are you coming close to me when I know that you can never be mine. You will never love me. Please Sanskar, Don't come so close that my heart again raise a hope or any misconception. I pacified my heart two times before but if my heart break again. I may not able to handle myself. Please Sanskar.
(A lone tear escaped from her eyes. She closed her eyes and slept after sometime)

Next morning,
Everyone was having breakfast. Swara was with Arshit and feeding him but it was more like she was avoiding Sanskar. Ragini was also present there but no one bother to talk to her after yesterday's incident. Only Sujatha was talking to her. Swara was feeling bad for her but she couldn't do anything about it and secondly she was also angry on her because of her yesterday's behavior.
Dp: Sanskar, have you talked to Laksh?
Ragini look at Sanskar with some hope. As Laksh was not taking her calls.
Sanskar: Yes papa, he called me last night. He is fine. He was saying he will come to office directly.
Ragini got sad hearing it.
Dp: Hmm, ok.
Ap: I hope he will not do anything wrong.
Sanskar: Don't worry Maa. He will be alright. He is not any kid that he would take any stupid Decision.
Ap: Hmm, yeah hope so.
Sanskar: Okay maa, I m going. I have important work. Bye, Bye papa.
He goes toward Swara and kissed Arshit's forehead: bye champ (Smile) bye Swara.
Swara also nodded with smile. With that he left to office.
Ap: After so many days, I m seeing my Sanskar so happy.
RP: Ji bhabhi sa, you are right.
Dp smiles and nods. Both were so happy for Sanskar and knew the reason was non other than Swara.
After breakfast DP and RP left to office.
Office
Sanskar cabin;
Sanskar finished his meeting and was looking some documents. Then a knock disturbed him.
Arjun: May I come in sir?
Sanskar: Yes Arjun, come in.
Arjun came inside.
Sanskar: Arjun give these papers to papa and take his sign on it.
Arjun: Ok sir.
Sanskar:And Arjun,did Laksh come?
Arjun: Yes sir, he is in his cabin.
Sanskar: Fine, Get these papers signed.
Arjun: Sir, may I say something?
Sanskar: Yes.
Arjun: Sir, are you sure about singhania's deal? I mean you don't know his true color. He is not what he show.
Sanskar (smirk): I know everything Arjun and in this deal, it's only him who will face loss not us.
Arjun: (understand and smile) Yes sir. Ok, I will take leave now.
Arjun left.
Suddenly something striked in his mind" You don't know the true color" He remembered about yesterday's conversation with Shekhar and Shomi. It striked his mind, he don't know the truth.
Sanskar: Oh god, how can I forget about it? It's all because of yesterday's drama. Otherwise, I would have broken Lucky's bones. But what to do now. It's good that I didn't do anything to Laksh. It's good if he don't know anything. Because if he comes to know then he will definitely try to stop me and tell everything to Swara. I have to handle it carefully without his knowledge. But from where I will get to know this damn truth!!
He throws the files from the table in frustration then He closed his eyes and leaned his head back on the chair. Suddenly, he remembered something. He opened his eyes and looked at his watch.
Sanskar (chuckles): How can be I so stupid?
He clicked and opened the watch and removed the memory card.
Let's start with this only. I don't know whether it will work or not but some where from Swara's reaction that day about this memory card, what I saw is giving me feeling that that I m on right way.

He remembered how Swara burned his memory card thinking it as her's.
Sanskar: I m sorry Swara for doing all this. I promised you to trust you but if I will ask you about it then you won't say the truth. That's why I m doing it. It's clear that you are hiding the real culprit from me. But for me, it's really important. I kept blaming you for two years for something you didn't do. I m still feeling guilty for whatever I have done to you. I just want to know who was that person. I Will destroy that bastard!!(angry). You did everything to hide him/ her from me and now it's my turn. Now, I will do anything to know that person.
He connected memory card with his laptop.
Sanskar: Good, it's connected. Now, let's see what is in it.
Sanskar opened the memory card folder and get shocked to see it.
Sanskar (shocked): What the hell? What the hell is this? How can it be blank?
He tried again and again but it shows nothing. He gets frustrated once again.
Sanskar (calm himself closing his eyes): Relax, I have to calm myself. There has to be something. It can't be blank otherwise why would Swara will try to destroy it? Why would she hide it carefully inside the frame? Her fear about it. There is definitely something. I have to find out.
He looked at screen again and thought something and call someone.
Sanskar: In my cabin right now and come with Karan.
O.s: Ok sir.
Within a min there was a knock on the cabin door.
Sanskar: Yes, come in Arjun.
Arjun: Yes sir, Anything important?
Sanskar: Yes, Where is Karan?
Arjun: He is coming sir.(Then only Karan enters)
Sanskar: Come in Karan.
Karan: Good morning sir. Arjun told that you called me? What happened sir?
Sanskar: Karan, you are technical head of this company right?
Karan nodded.
Sanskar: So Now, you have some work.
Karan: Sure sir, tell me what I have to do?
Sanskar: Here see this. This memory is not showing any files. You have to fix this problem.
Karan: Sure sir. Just a minute sir.
He checked himself but it was not showing anything. Watching it, Arjun also tried but still nothing.
Arjun: Are you sure sir, It has anything?
Sanskar glared at him.
Arjun: I m sorry sir but it's shows nothing.
Sanskar (sarcastic): Glad to know that. I have called you both to solve the problem. Not to tell the problem.
Karan chuckles at Arjun while he glared at him.
Sanskar saw it and say: Stop laughing Karan. You both have time till today's evening and you both know what I want. Otherwise, come with your resignation letter. I will happily sign it.
Arjun: But sir, Karan is technical head. He should solve it, Right?
Sanskar: Technically yes but no. You also have to help him as you also have some knowledge about it. Got it? I hope you don't have any problem now?
Arjun: Yes sir.
Sanskar: Good, now get back to work.
Arjun and Karan both left the cabin.
Sanskar (monologue): I will not give up so easily. I will find out.
He thinks about incident. How he was trying to find truth. Laksh and Swara hiding it from him. Swara's reaction about the memory card. Everything was roaming in his mind.
He comes back in his sense with knock on the door.
Sanskar: Come in.
Laksh enters in his cabin and says: Hi Bhai.
Sanskar: Hi Laksh, how are you?
Laksh: I m fine now.
Sanskar: Good, come sit.
Laksh take seat.
Sanskar: Laksh, are you still thinking about yesterday's incident?
Laksh was about to say something but Sanskar interrupted.
Laksh: Bhai...
Sanskar: No Laksh, listen to me first. I know you are hurt because of Ragini. You don't need to pretend. I am your brother. I know you very well Laksh. There are so many times comes in our life when we have to take our decision whether its tough or simple but whatever we choose take the major turn in our life. So, we should not take any decision in anger or pressure. I know Ragini was wrong yesterday and I m not gonna say to forgive her or give her a chance. It's totally up to you. I just want to say that yoi Should not regret on your decision after sometime Laksh. It was your decision to marry Ragini. You love her then why all of the sudden everything changed? Marriage is pious bond of two souls. We should not insult it. I m not gonna give you lecture on to do or not to do. You are not kid. I hope you will act maturely.
Laksh: Hm, yeah I will think about it.
Sanskar: That's good. You are coming mm today, right?
Laksh nods. Sanskar smiled.
Laksh: Anyway, it was nice speech. In just two days Swara changed you a lot. Impressive!
Sanskar: What? From where Swara came in all this? Don't drag her in between.
Laksh: oohh!! my brother Sanskar Maheshwari became possessive Maheshwari. So possessive about his wife.
Sanskar give him "you can never change look".
Sanskar: Just a min before you were like most sad perso and now see.
Laksh: Whatever Bhai!! Lucky is a cool dude.
Sanskar rolled his eyes at him. Laksh laughed.
Suddenly Laksh's phone beeps.
Sanskar: Ragini?
Laksh: No, it's Swara.
Sanskar: What? (Confused)
Laksh: Ohh don't be possessive. It's just that she is also saying to talk to Ragini. See I told you. You both are same.
Sanskar smiled unknowingly.
Laksh: Okay, I have to leave now. I have to mail some documents.
Sanskar: hm ok, go.
Laksh left. Sanskar was smiling on what Laksh said.
Evening,
Sanskar called Arjun and Karan in his cabin. Both came.
Sanskar (serious): Come in.
Both come inside with defeated look.
Sanskar: So, tell me have you done it?
Karan (scared): Sir, actually....
Sanskar: Come straight to the point Karan.
Karan: Sir you were right. It's not blank. It has a file. It was hidden. We somehow found it but...
Sanskar (confused): but??
Arjun: Sir, it is password protected. So, we could not open the file.
Sanskar (shocked): What??
