Gear up for an emotional ride guys.

" Sanskar this is not normal periods. "Sujata said sobbing.

" Huh? Then? " Sanskar asked.

" Mom tell me please. You are scaring me. "Sanskar said when he saw Sujata was only sobbing and not telling anything.

" Sanskar.. This is a miscarriage. " Sujata said. Her voice choking.

" What? Mom are you even listening what you are saying? How are you so sure? "Sanskar asked yelling.

" I know this Sanskar. I had a miscarriage after you and before Uttara. Please hurry. We need to take her to the hospital. "Sujata said.

Sanskar didn't know how to react. Did she just hide the biggest news of his life?

" Sanskar what are you thinking make the car ready. "Ram yelled from behind bringing him back in senses.

Right now his anger can wait. He called up Sonakshi and she picked in first ring.

" At the hospital. Nowww. "Sanskar screamed angrily. He thought if Swara was pregnant then Sonakshi must be knowing about it. She also hid it from him and that boiled his blood.

He carried Swara in bridal style and put her in car. Sujata sat keeping her head in her lap. Ram and Uttara followed them in different car.

At hospital

Sonakshi and Dev already reached hospital and were waiting for them with a stretcher. As soon as Sanskar reached they shifted her on it.

"What happened to her?" Sonakshi asked worrying.

"She is having a miscarriage." Sujata said shocking everyone.

"What?" Sonakshi said running with the stretcher.

"She was pregnant?" She asked making Sanskar realise that maybe Sonakshi was unaware about it as well.

"Nurse, emergency room now." Sona instructed.

Ram informed Dida and she was there in no time. She too didn't had a clue about it. Sujata sat praying for her children. She knew this was a terrible situation. She and her husband faced it in the past but then they had little Sanskar for their distraction but here her children have none. This will break them more.

Sanskar sat keeping his face in his palms while Dev sat beside him squeezing his shoulders in order to console him. No words were coming in anyone's mind.

"How could she not tell me?" That's what Sanskar was thinking and continuously praying.

After an hour

A teary Sonakshi came out of the room and stood infront of Sanskar.

"What happened? Is it true?" Sanskar asked anxiously.

A tear escaped from her eyes nodding yes. Sanskar sat on the seat with a thud. Dida and Sujata started to weep. Ishwari was trying to console them. Uttara hugged Ram crying while Sona sat on her knees infront of Sanskar holding his hands tightly while Dev sat besides him for support.

"How? Why?" Sanskar asked whispering.

"It seems like she was not knowing about it as well. She was only 8 weeks pregnant and sometimes woman gets to know about it after 12 weeks. In these cases miscarriage rates are high. She is unconscious right now. Will gain her senses in few hours. " Sonakshi said, her voice breaking.

" Also If she knew she is pregnant. She would have come to me for her tests and confirmation. "

"Are you sure she didn't know or was it due to all the stress that is happening ?" Sanskar questioned thinking maybe he is the culprit of the baby.

" I am quite sure that she didn't know because she had wine with me in the party. Had she known, she would have never consumed alcohol but that wine was not that strong to lead to a miscarriage. To find out the real reason, we have taken her blood sample. The reports will come in 2-3 days. " Sonakshi said with tears continuously flowing from her eyes.

" She will break. " Sanskar murmured and a tear escaped from his eyes thinking what will happen when Swara will get to know about it.

" She was continuously bending and lifting heavy boxes in morning." Dev said remembering her activities.

"She will blame herself. Had I been with her, she was in no need to do this business. This baby would have been a new ray of hope in our lives. " Sanskar said starting to weep a little.

"Sujata behen, himmat rakhiye. Aapko Sanskar ko sahara dena hoga wo tabhi Swara ko sambhal paega." (Sujata ji please be strong. You need to support Sanskar then only he will be able to handle Swara) Ishwari said consoling her.
Sujata wiped her tears realising this and went to sit with Sanskar.

" Sanskar this is true. She will solely blame herself for this but we all know this is no one's fault. This was destiny. You will have to make her realise that. She needs you the most at this time." Sujata said cupping his face.

"Sanskar Sujata is right. Please for now keep all your past issues and anger behind. My Shoru will not be able to handle this alone." Dida said.

"Dida is right Sanskar. She can go in Post miscarriage depression which can take a toll on her mental health. You people already have a lot on your plate. Its high time you both give your marriage another chance. This is not the end. You both can again build a castle full of hopes for a bright future together. " Sonakshi said looking at Sanskar.

"Ofcourse Dida. There is no question about this. She is not alone in this. For past I am not going to make her suffer this badly. " Sanskar said.

"Do we need to even tell her? She will break badly." Sanskar said

"Its her right to know Sanskar. We can't do this to her." Sonakshi said. Sanskar nodded understanding.

He stood up and went inside her room and sat holding her hands. Her presence was giving him some weird kind of support to keep him collected.

Swara  opened her eyes but the sunlight blinded her, she closed it again and blinked few times adjusting to the light. She looked around and she was confused. Why was she at the hospital? She saw Sanskar sitting besides her dozing off holding her hands. She lightly caressed his hairs. he woke u with her touch.

"Swara? You ok?" He said sitting properly. Swara nodded and tried to sit but hissed in pain. Her lower abdomen was paining a little bit. Sanskar felt bad.

"Water." She asked. Sanskar made her drink with a glass. What was happening? That's all she could think of right now.

"You wait let me call Sona." Sanskar said cupping her face. She was confused with his behaviour. Last she remembered that she was feeling dizzy and then Sanskar came to ask her heath and she fainted. Rest is all blank for her.

"Shoru are you okay?" She saw Dida entering hurriedly followed by Sonakshi and Sujata.
Dida sat infront of her on the bed cupping her face. She saw everyone's eyes were red.

"Yes Dida I am fine. But what is happening. Why am I in hospital and why is my abdomen paining?" She asked looking at Sona.

"Have patience Shona. Let me check your vitals first." Sonakshi said checking her pulse and blood pressure. When she was sure it was safe to drop the bomb on Swara she signalled Dida to start.

"Shoru, beta did you know you were pregnant?" Dida started carefully.

"Pregnant?" Swara shouted excitedly and looked at Sanskar who was standing at the door with Dev. But with teary eyes and then it clicked her.

"Were? What do you mean by were Dida?" She asked. Tears were threatening to spill from Dida's eyes. Sujata squeezed her shoulder to give her strength to bear the news that was coming her way.

"Shoru you were 8 weeks pregnant but now you are not. You miscarried." Dida said looking down not able to see Swara's shocked face.

"What? But how?" She whispered.

"Shona its very common to have a miscarriage in first trimester. Its just that you didn't know about it. Soo" Sonakshi stopped in mid. Not able to form words.

"That means due to my carelessness I lost my child." Swara said. She had already started to sob. Dida and Sujata both hugged her instantly. Firstly she had no idea that a life was growing inside her and when now she gets to know. It is no more in the world. She was in deep shock.

"It was not your fault Chhori. Please don't blame yourself. This was destiny." Sujata said caressing her hairs. Sanskar was not able to watch the scene, he turned his face to gain some strength and slowly moved towards her. Sujata broke the hug and stood up from her place making space for him to sit. She was still weeping in Dida's arms. He kept his hand on her shoulder squeezing it a bit.

She instantly looked at him with tears flowing down from her eyes.

"Sorry.." She whispered. He nodded no.

"Sorry Sanskar. So sorry. I couldn't take care of our love symbol properly." She said sobbing,her voice breaking.

"Shhh.. No no.. It was not your fault." Saying this he hugged her. Swara started wailing keeping her head on his chest.

Rest of them left the room giving them privacy. Now only Sanskar can handle Swara.

As everyone left, Sanskar too couldn't take it any longer and broke in her arms. Both were venting out their grief, frustration and other emotions that were flowing inside them.

Things would have been different if we were together.

This thought was lingering deep inside in their hearts.
