PARIS, FRANCE.

Swara was sitting on the cold floor hugging her knees with her face hidden. Her hazelnut eyes were in blood red and swelled up, her face had turned red and pale with tears marks present on her white cheeks. Her reddened eyes was fixed on the photo frame which had her mother and father smiling happily. How much she craves to see the smile again? Tears filled her eyes again. Just remembering that her father and mother are no more.. It hurts her.. It still hurts her that she feels suffocated to even breathe. The tears which brimmed her eyes rushed down to her cheeks once again. She misses them so much. The day they passed away leaving her behind joy, happiness, emotions everything left her and she was consumed with darkness and emotionless.

Little did anyone know that this cold girl has a deep dark past which was like a slow poison, killing her slowly yet strongly. She was dying each and every single second but all she could put on was the so called *fake* smile to the world.

"That's not fair maa and papa, you left your princess all alone..... It was just because me... I loved him. I wish I would have never seen him in my life. He betrayed me and took away you both that... I can never see." Swara broke into soft sobs.

"Swara." there was a knock on the door.

This broke her thoughts. Hearing the knock swara sighed.

"Mom, I'm coming." Swara stood up from the floor wiping her tears and took a glance of that frame again.

"Happy 4th year death anniversary maa and papa." She whispered sadly with teary eyes and left to the washroom to fresh up.

"You are just no one.... No one to me swara." he yelled at her

"But I loved you and you betrayed me, how would you sanskaar?"  Swara was devastated.

Sanskaar woke up with a jerk and sat on his bed.

"Why does she always appears in my dream? It's been 4 damn years since I left her but I get at least a small glimpse which I had with her everyday before."  Sanskaar signed.

"It's better to get ready instead of thinking about her". He mumbled to himself since it has been his almost daily routine and so he took his clothes and left to the washroom.

Swara came downstairs wearing a black solid jumpsuit with a jacket on her hand.

"Good morning mom." Swara greeted the lady was standing near the dinning table making her breakfast plates ready.

"Good morning swara" Caroline (lady) smiled as she saw swara coming down from the stairs.

Swara sat on the dinning table and started to have her breakfast silently. Caroline looked at swara with a sad smile. She noticed her face pale and her eyes a little red. Even though swara had wore makeup to hide them she can easily find it out after all swara was like her daughter to her.

"I'm done". Swara got up from the chair as she finished eating. She wore her leather jacket and took her guitar bag. 

"Bye Mom." Swara waved her hand.

"Bye swara and take care." Caroline said with a smile.

Swara started walking on the roads hiding her hands in the pocket due to cold weather. It was December and Paris usually receives rainfall and snow in the weeks of Christmas. Just 2 weeks were left for the Christmas Eve but the roads were already blocked with snow. Swara was all lost in her thoughts yet she walked to her musical institution and directly went to her class.

"Swara." A girl with olive green eyes and golden blonde hair came running and hugged her.

"Hey Olivia, you seems to be much happier today? What's the matter?" Swara questioned breaking the hug seeing olivia all happier.

"Com'mon swara, just 2 weeks and then we'll be on long vacations." Olivia squealed like a kid.

"Mm... Yup." Swara sat beside her seat and Olivia too sat.

"Hey your eyes looks red what happened?" Olivia asked with concern.

"Ah.. that's nothing maybe dust would have fallen." Swara it covered up with a lie.

"Oh Okay, take care." Olivia said.

"Where are the others?" Swara asked as she didn't find anyone in her team.

"Michael and alexa, the love birds as usual roaming around romancing, Evan hasn't come yet and ayaan has gone somewhere but came today."  Olivia answered.

"Okay." Swara said.

The bell rang and all the students came into their classes.

Sanskaar was all ready wearing a formal black suit. He entered into his institution which thought him what's music to him in detail. His love for this institution was, will and always remain the same even after ages. With bright smile he entered into the office while his professors and teachers were so happy to see him after all he was the favorite student before.

            ____________________

"Swara you know, one of the alumnae is coming today for our class. Do you have any idea of who it's gonna be?" Olivia was super excited to know who it is.

"No, how will I?" Swara replied with disinterest. She hardly take into consideration than something like that. 

"Trust me swara, the former students of our campus are so hot and handsome, all most everyone are." Olivia was all dreamily just with thought of it.

A quick flash of his appeared in her mind bust she quick shook off her thoughts and remained silent.

"Good morning." The dean of the institution, Mr. White entered the class.

All the students stood up and greeted him back.

"So I hope all are doing well and to add more knowledge to you all, a former student is here to let you all know about the current scenario about music. I know everyone knows him well. Come in my boy" Mr. White looked at the entrance.

The young man walked in while girls who were sitting went literally jumping in happiness in their hearts  seeing the handsome man back. Everyone was happy except one and it was Swara, A million emotions ran into her heart and it quickly turned into anger.  

Mr. White gave him a warm hug welcoming one of the best student back in the institution.

Swara closed her eyes tightly as the past flashed like a film in front of her eyes. Taking in a deep breathe she opened, ready to face him. Her once upon a time lover, SANSKAAR MAHESHWARI.

"So Sanskaar is here for you all for few weeks, hope you all will enjoy being in his company". Saying this the dean left after whispering a best of luck to sanskaar.

Sanskaar  just leaned on the table with arms folded near his chest. He looked at the students to find some familiar faces and gave them a small smile but a killer one to all the girls up there on their seats.
