Sanskaar had left Maheshwari company and had got back to his own company 'Karma groups'. He worked day and night for his company to develop and it was good going. "Hard work pays you well", they say and no doubt it worked so well in case of sanskaar. He and swara had worked together and gave out the best project making Mr. William get more satisfied for choosing these two.

Even though sanskaar had to say everything to her but he was still waiting for the right time to get say those. He knows who much she is involved in her company and well as he himself is. All he prayed was to tell her everything soon as possible.

Swara's cabin.

"Mam, here are the analyses you asked for." A staff gave the file to swara and left.

Looking into the file a smile broke her lips. She was happy seeing his growth and improvements in business field.

"Karma groups has been making wonders." She thought.

Even though she was a competitor to him still she feels happy they way he does each and every little thing he was doing for his company. Not every person has the potential to bring this higher and he was among those who can bring things up in few months. No wonder she always loved him and wanted him to grow up after all it was his life goal of having his own company and he was accomplishing it very well.

"Mam" Monica, swara's pa rushed to her cabin.

"What's the matter, Monica?" Swara was confused seeing her all sweating and tensed up.

"Mam... Your.. Your.. house..." Monica hesitated.

"Can you say it clearly?" Swara had no idea what was she saying.

"Swara" Prithvi, the oldest staff came inside in a hurry.

Swara looked at him, he quickly switched on the television. Swara's eyes widened seeing the news.

In television:

BREAKING NEWS: One of the leading company gagodia's group of companies owner's mansion is set on fire.

Swara's world stopped for a moment. Her face turned pale. Grabbing her mobile which had already died out charge she rushed to her mansion in full speed.

           _________________________

She came out of the car and her eyes caught her mansion which had half burnt and still fire was being put off by the fire service with lots of efforts. She felt suffocated seeing her mansion destroyed and smoke coming out.

"Miss. Gagodia, how many times should we call you to let you know this?" The inspector came to her.

"It.. I'm sorry" swara closed her eyes.

"Do you have any idea how would have it happened?" Inspector started questioning.

"I have no idea.... but just a day before I have started shifting my things to the other house." Swara said bluntly.

"No worries, there is no life loss." Inspector informed.

"Okay Miss. Gagodia sign the fir and we'll proceed the case." Inspector said handing over the papers to her.

"Drop it off.... Inspector." Swara said.

"But...." Inspector was gutted off by swara.

"I can handle it myself...... just act as if you are going up with the case. I'll do it myself." Swara's words turned hard as stone.

"No..." and swara's one dangerous look was enough to make the inspector jump in fear and so he left nodding in agreement.

Swara slowly walked closer to the mansion which was half destroyed. Wiping her tears from the corner of her eyes she stood beside an old man.

"This is why I told you.... Not to mess with me." Swara looked at dp who was evily smirking.

"Thank you for doing this ." Dp turned towards swara who was looking at her mansion with no emotion.

"Confused?" Swara looked at him with a smirk.

"Even though I considered this mansion as my heaven, my parents thoughts were haunting which lead me to change my house a day before and I'm sure you don't know..... wasn't it your plan to kill me with this mansion with fires and flames making me into ashes along with this mansion?!" Dp was shocked hearing her words.

"Thank your igniting the fire in me more..... to burn you. You live your life with only professionalism and I have two different worlds with me. You messed with one so badly but I have another but you have only one and you have no idea what Miss. Swara gagodia can do! Remember gagodia's can show love with love and can defeat hatred with hatred." Her words made Dp dumbfounded and angry.

"Remember Gagodia's blood is running through my veins and i swear...... to make your company down not with your cheat, low tricks but with my work." Swara started to leave.

"And that's a promise to you Mr. Maheshwari and when Swara gagodia promises she will never break it." Swara's said without turning and started leaving.

             _______________________

Sanskaar came to gagodia's mansion with all his speed. His eyes turned moist seeing the mansion's condition. No matter what he had also been in this mansion and been with the people in it. He very well knowns how much this house means to her, she consider this place more than anything in her whole life.

"Her????"

"Swara?!...... how where is she?" He started searching for her like mad.

He knows how much she would be broken seeing this scene and he knows she needs someone to be there to confront her. Searching for about 10 minutes he found her.

She was in the car, sitting on the driver's seat holding the stirring tightly and her eyes leaving her tears like pearls unconditionally. Her eyes reflected her pain she was going through now. Her eyes were fixed on the mansion only. His heart teared up seeing her vulnerable condition.... it reminds only that Night when her parents died and when he told those bitter words. Without his knowledge he felt wetness on his own cheeks. Yes, he was crying too seeing her cry. He can feel her pain in him. Before even he would reach the car swara had started driving leaving him behind..........

         ________________________

Swara reached to her new house which she shifted before. She walked in like a lifeless body, she had wiped off her tears already yet one can say how much she was in a bad and a vulnerable state seeing her.

"Swara" Ramli kaki came with tears in her eyes.

"Ka... kaki, you are fine na?" swara only muttered and hugged her tightly.

Kaki too sobbed along with her, she had been with the gagodia's from the day shekhar and shomi got married. Both of them never seen anyone as their servants or workers instead they saw them as one among their family. They respected and loved each and everyone followed by their daughter. Their death made the whole of them cry yet it was swara and Caroline who made their ways set free and gave work in some other places but ramali kaki was too adamant to go from the house which made swara to ask her to take care of the house.

She made swara sit and hugged her again while swara was still crying silently in her embrace. After convincing a lot kaki made swara to eat a little and have her medicines.

"Kaki" swara called her and she looked at swara.

"Can...I.. li... lie in your.. lap?" Swara asked while kaki nodded with tears.

Swara without a word lied keeping her head on her lap. While kaki was caressing her hairs lovingly which made her cry even more remembering her mother.

Her eyes flashed her mansion..... gagodia's mansion was build up by her own father's hardworked money. He built it with so much of love and affection. The house where she was born, where she played with her parents, spoke her first word, wrote for the first time, planted trees, ate by her paa feeding her and slept in her maa's lap, growing from a small baby into young women ..... and everything. Her success, her failure, joy, anger, sadness, happiness every little thing the house had witnessed.

But today..... She saw a different one! It was once the house waa so lively and filled with lovely people and it providing security, today a place with warmth and memories was no more..... This night changed everything... The beautifully mansion which attracted every people who crosses by has turned into devastating state. The beautifully white painted house has turned into pitch black and she saw the dark smoke mixing with air giving heated air to breath in which once gave her fresh air to breath. In the end all that happened was the odour of smoke and ash filled her mouth, nostrils and lungs - as if her own grief wasn't punishment enough.

She looked up and saw kaki sleeping. She got up slowly wiping her tears and made kaki to wake up.

"Kaki you go, kanchi would be waiting for you." Swara sniffed.

"Swara she can manage..." Kaki was cutted off.

"Kaki she shouldn't be alone at this time, you go I'll take care." Swara stood up gulping in her tears.

"But what about you?" Kaki was worried for swara after she saw swara too as her own.

"I'll be fine and don't wake me up at morning until I myself do. Good night kaki." swara hugged her and sent her off.

Closing the door again tears welled up her already red puffing eyes. She closed her eyes tightly making those tears scroll down her cheeks once again!.....

Sanskaar entered his house totally lost in deep thoughts and his thoughts stopped hearing his father's voice.

"How dare she speak with me like that?" Dp threw the telephone which was in the hall.

"I made plans and killed her parents to get No. 1 position but again this girl has come instead of her father....... Urghhhh I fired the mansion thinking that she will break down but she.... that silly girl showed no emotions. I will kill her.... I can do anything to get my position permanent." Dp confessed in range unaware of the fact that his son heard everything.

"Durgaprasad Maheshwari.....!!!!" Sanskaar roared, his voice was too loud to get into every nook and corner of the mansion.

Dp turned and saw his own son saying his name with face and eyes all red and he knew sanskaar was angry. It shocked him more.... 'Did he hear whatever I spoke now?' he thought.

While sanskaar took steps forward towards his so called spineless DAD !.....
