"welcome" Swara hugged Sanskar getting scared of sudden loud shouts when they reached entrance.

She saw Sanskar's oops her Maa holding Aarti ki plate, her Papa standing beside her. Abhir and Misti holding party poppers, Atul as usual standing straight like some one have punished him.

Sujata rotated plate then put tilak on her forehead "after long time you are back now I won't let you go anywhere"

Swara smiled then frown "Maa you didn't put teeka to Sanskar"

Sujata looks at him knowing well he doesn't believe in god and such rituals.

Sanskar saw his Snow White's sad face which didn't go well with him so he looks at his mother and blinks his eyes like you can put.

Sujata smile in tears put teeka on his forehead "god give you all happiness of world"

And from behind they heard burst of party poppers.

Sanskar made her sit on sofa where all delicious food were present in table which was in front of sofa.

Swara's eyes sparkle "wow you know Maa I missed eating all this. There I can only eat Maggie due to money shortage" she said casually but it broke others heart.

"You just order what you want, your mother is here to prepare for you" Sujata said filling plate with noodles and Manchurian.

"And you know Swara, Abhir make delicious bread pakora and Pani puri" Misti gave her fresh orange juice.

"Will you make for me?" Swara asked Abhir who throwing daggers at his wife.

"Sure Ara why won't I?" He gave tight smile thinking in mind "but to prepare I should know how to make. Misti kaha fasa dia" he made crying face while Misti giggle.

"Atul where is Laksh?" Sanskar asked Atul standing little away from others.

"King, Laksh sir went to mission" fear was evident in his voice.

"What? And you didn't need to inform me?" Sanskar's eyes turned red in rage.

"Laksh sir said not to inform you King but I asked our guards to look after Sir. Nothing will happen to him" Atul's reply gave some relief but still he is worried for his friend.

Sanskar know why Laksh went to mission without informing him. He knows Sanskar won't let him go alone not when his State of mind is not good as Laksh is hurt feeling betrayed by Ragini.

"Laksh be safe my dear friend" Swara called Sanskar who looked lost.

"Yes Jaan" he kissed her forehead lovingly.

Swara's face turned red feeling shy.

"Awwe so romantic" Abhir gave teasing smile.

"Yes I'm romantic unlike you, always behind my Snow White, why don't you flirt with your wife" abhir ignored Sanskar's narrow look.

"Ok stop both of you, let me eat my meal" Swara shoot glare at both men.

"Sir mission is successful but Laksh sir got shot" Sanskar got up reading massage.

Orders looks at him standing "I have some work will come soon, Jaan no running around and stressing your self" he said strictly.

"Don't worry we will have fun" Abhir winks at Misti who shook her head.

"Someday he will die from my gun" Sanskar shoot daggers at Abhir before leaving house.

He didn't want to leave his jaan that too with this Abhir but Laksh his friend also needs him. Laksh went to mission not to distract himself but to hurt himself and he knows this is just starting.

Sanskar entered the luxurious house and walks through corridor leading to a bar where all brand were kept.

Laksh was sipping his drink gazing absent minded in corner. His hair were messy and sleeves of shirt upward. His arm which is bandage turned red due to pressure he is putting on his hand.

Sanskar took calculative steps and held Laksh's hand stopping him drinking more.

"Enough" Laksh look at his best friend and gave a cheeky smile telling Sanskar he is fully drunken.

"Sanky" laksh shouted then kept finger on his lips "oops sorry, you don't like that name" he pouted.

"What are you doing here? Why didn't you come home?" Sanskar questioned keeping glasses aside supporting Laksh.

"Home? Which home? Do I have home? Don't you all hate me?" Laksh's innocent voice did something in Sanskar's heart.

"Why will I hate you laksh?" Sanskar raise his eyebrows.

"Because I'M UNLUCKY" Laksh started laughing removing Sanskar's hold in him "see my bad luck caused pain to you too...." He took whiskey bottle and started gulping.

"Laksh stop it, you will hurt yourself damn it" Sanskar tried to to move but Laksh ran to other side "LAKU ENOUGH" Sanskar lost his calm.

Laksh stopped hearing his childhood name after years from Sanskar. Sanskar used to call him LAKU before that dreadful past which changed Sanskar upside down.

Laksh being intoxicated couldn't handle his weight and was about to fall on glass table which may end up hurting him badly but someone held him before he falls.

Sanskar took long steps help his friend before he fall and hurt himself badly. He grabbed bottle from laksh's hand and threw it causing loud sound.

"What the hell was that Laksh? You would have hurt yourself badly. What if I couldn't reach you and"

He was cut by Laksh "and die?" He started laughing with teary eyes "it would have been great then Sanky" then he look straight into his eyes "atleast then I wouldn't have died being alive"

"See again you started calling me Laksh not Laku because your heart know I'm nothing but a curse" he wiped his tears harshly from back of his hand.

"Laku" Sanskar was angry listening him.

"Hai na? I'm curse that's why all left me. Maa my biological mother Annapurna Maheshwari was right that I'm unlucky, curse who destroys peace of family... I should have never born" Sanskar's heart pained seeing his friend's devastated state.

"You are drunk that's why blabbering idiotically, come let me take you home. Mom is waiting for you, you know she prepared so many tasty food" Sanskar tried to change the topic but all went in vain.

"After I was born dad's business started to face problems that my parents were going to bankrupt. Dad couldn't hold stress met with accident and died. Maa lost her husband and become widow. All this happen because I came to world. Even you faced problems after I entered your life Hain na? Before I enter you were so happy with your family but I snatched it from you. I never saw you smiling but after Shona came you again started to smile, live your life but again it was going to snatch from you because of ME. You should go Sanskar don't come near me I don't want to see you hurt" Laksh fall on knees crying bitterly like a baby.

Sanskar took him to his embrace "you are not curse Laku but my BOON. Nothing happened because of YOU, it was YOU who held me when I broke down. It was YOU who stood by me when I pushed you all away from me. You stayed stubborn besides me when I shouted at you to leave me alone. It was because of you I again started to trust again. Because of you I accepted mom as my mother and " he heard slight snoring and saw him fallen asleep because of alcohol "you are my Laku, my best friend whom I cherish whole life"

He lifted Laksh and brought him to his room made him sleep changed his bandage then left the room after covering him with comforter.

He went to opposite room which was his room. Both sanlak have room in each other's house, took long hot shower to relax his tensed muscles came out changing his clothes.

"Atul, how is Jaan?" Sanskar called him to know about his Snow White.

"Sir Queen is resting in her room after taking medicine. Just now Mr and Mrs Rajvanshi left home. Sujata ma'am is sleeping with Queen" Atul gave full details.

"Tighten up the security" saying he kept his call looks at Laksh.

"I never knew you have stored so much in your heart Laku, maybe in my pain I missed to see yours. I'm sorry" he caressing laksh's hair slept in sofa.
