Next day:

    It was lunch time and swara was at the lawn of the institution striking her guitar strings closing her eyes being lost in deep thoughts. Ayaan who came searching for her saw her and sat beside her.

"Swara" he called her.

"Hmm?" Swara was still lost.

"You ate very little...." Ayaan started to speak.

"I'm fine". swara cutted his words.

"You were sick the last day." He tried to explained. He doesn't want swara to get sick again.

"I was and not now" swara kept her guitar aside.

Silence remained between them for some time.

"Why do you act as if you are rude?" Ayaan questioned. The question he always wanted to ask for her.

Swara looked at him but still preferred to be silent.

"You act so very well that none can find the real you that easily but I suspect something is there, you are hiding something from all which bothers you like hell right?" Ayaan blurted out everything which he wanted to ask her all these years.

"Mm... It's nothing that way ayaan." swara looked somewhere else and lied to him .

"You are running way from your problems instead of fighting with them." ayaan said softly. He even though he doesn't know what was the problem, he could easily feel something was wrong in her.

Swara closed her eyes.

"I don't know what's bothering you swara but fight back and never give up. If you run your problems will follow you where ever you go." This is what he always wanted to say to her, he stood up and left.

"How can I fight back ayaan?" Tears scrolled down her cheeks. "It's tuff, it's difficult than I ever thought, that's why I hid whenever I saw him but....he..." swara hid her face in her lap hugging her knees.

Swara came inside her block and opened her locker to take her notebook.

Sanskaar saw her and called her but she didn't hear so he went near her as he had to inform her about joining the music company after new year.

He walked near her and a student who was walking without seeing who's behind pushed sanskaar a little making sanskaar to stumble forward, swara who took her notebook turned to leave after closing her locker and she saw sanskaar going to fall on her. She closed her eyes tightly.

After a moment she didn't feel as she fell down. She opened her eyes a little saw herself in between sanskaar's arms being pinned against the wall.

Sanskaar observed her face which showed no emotions like as usual. He immediately took off his hands and swara left hugging her notebook close to her chest. Sanskaar looked at the retreating figure.

"I'm sorry sir." the boy who pushed sanskaar unfortunately apologized.

"Don't repeat that again." sanskaar murmured and left to his class.

Evan came inside the class and saw his team members packing their bags to leave.

"Guys a minute please." Evan said making everyone look at him.

" You all know tomorrow is our graduation day, and one more thing actually we have to join the music company after new year I was just informed by professor sanskaar." Evan informed.

"Okay done" Alexa squealed.

"I'm gonna miss you all my people" Olivia extended her hands wide asking them for a hug.

All joint the hug.

"It's the last day together of our group in this institution, let's hang out for sometime." Micheal gave an idea.

"Yes but not longer because swara is not good for this climate." Alexa said.

"I'll be fine." swara smiled seeing her care.

"Then let's go why are we waiting for?!" Olivia squealed.

All left the room. Swara stopped by the entranced and scanned at the room for one last time as she's no more going to sit here as a student and left.

Sanskaar was walking again in the streets of Paris with headphones, his daily routine at night.

"Today was the last day for being in my institution.... I will be returning back to the music company after this new year. I'll be meeting her again yet in a different place. I'll be there as their gang's instructor for sometime. I don't know whether she will go back to India but I will be going after few weeks and my life is going to start all again in the same place but different situation yet she won't be there". he smiled sadly seeing his fate.

Destiny has played it's cards so very well on him.

Swara came home totally drained out after roaming around with her friends after a long time.

"You came? Go and fresh up, I've already heated up the water so go fresh up and then we'll have dinner together." Caroline caressed her hairs and left to the kitchen.

Swara went to her room to fresh up herself. She just removed her overcoat, accessories and her boots and instantly went to the washroom and switched on the shower.

The hot water was running down her body from tip to toe. Her eyes flashed the moment which they had today morning.

"Just few more days...... I'll go away from here" swara murmured.

            ______________________

Swara came downstairs after freshing up and sat down in the table. Caroline sat beside her and started to serve dishes for swara and herself.

"So till when you are going to be in that music company?" Caroline asked.

"Just for a few days till I give up the concert which I have promised to that old man then I'll leave." swara replied.

Caroline smiled at her.

After having their dinner Caroline made swara to sleep after giving her medicines and went to her room.

"Wish my daughter gets no more sadness in her life." praying this caroline lied on her bed and soon fell asleep.
