Chapter- 7
The Sun is shining bright in the sky and so as, the face of all except Sanskaar who is still in guilt. Swara ignores him and Laksh all the time. The groups are announced and due to our Laksh, Swara and Sanskaar are together in one. She isn't comfortable with this and moreover, today is her very special day which she doesn't want to ruin.
Sanskaar joins her silently but Swara doesn't let him feel any respond. He is upset and is praying for best for today's plan of apology. Everyone picks their bags and starts the journey together. Swara is with Uttara followed by Sanskaar and Laksh. She is trying her best to not spoil her mood due to presence of anyone. (Ouch!)
They keep on walking while exploring the nature around. And finally, they enter a forest area which is quite cool for all. The groups are divided and all sets up their camps. Swara and Sanskaar are send to bring wood. Swara wanted to deny but that would sound rude which is the right of someone else.
Both of them collects as many sticks as they can carry and are coming back. Suddenly, a sound is heard by Swara which scares her and she leaves all the sticks on hearing it again and again. She takes two steps back and then turns and runs into Sanskaar.
Swara's eyes are closed tight and face in his jacket full of fear. Her fingers are shivering a little whereas, Sanskaar is stunned to see her hugging him. He slowly takes her in embrace as he rubs her back smoothly. After a few seconds, he takes her name and she finally, opens her eyes.
They breaks the hug and Swara feels embarrassed, she stammers, "Th..th.. That soun..sound... I... I got scar... scared..." "It's.. It's ok! I think that some wild creature would there." Sanskaar says cutting her and both again collect the sticks and starts to move towards the camp.
Their faces are blank unlike their brains who are thinking how come Swara be afraid of few weird noises and has Sanskaar too dropped sticks in fear, respectively. Uttara and Laksh get huge relief to see them fit and fine.
Uttara asks, "Where were you both lost? I was so scared! Why you took this long" Sansaar replies, "First, it isn't too easy to get these much sticks and second, S..." Swara immediately drops sticks which drags attention of the trio.
She changes the topic and says, "Come on guys! I am very hungry! Let's prepare something fast or I will die!" And, the group of 6 gets involve in the work and have their lunch. All are resting mostly inside their tents while Swara is not liking this at all.
She asks Uttara to come out for at least a walk but her legs refuse to do so. Angry and Bored Swara storms out of the tent without telling anyone where she is leading. Sanskaar comes out to pick his bag but his eyesight falls on Swara and he wonders what she is doing by walking folding her arms.
He follows her without being noticed by her and noticing the way by himself. After some time, he stops as Swara does when she finds a waterfall in front of her which leaves her spell bounded. Her eyes grow wide twinkling and the prettiest smile ever played on lips.
Even Sanskaar is astonished with the view, it looked like a beautiful dream place. Swara couldn't control and run near the water. Sanskaar comes out from the hide of the tree to see Swara being a kid. She removes her shoes as she runs into the river and starts jumping in water.
Sanskaar smiles unknowingly and moves towards Swara slowly who is lost in the chill water. He reaches near her without realisation of being standing exactly behind her back. Swara splashes water at back and Sanskaar comes in his senses. Swara is taken back when she sees him as she twirls.
Her foot slips in water and (you know better now) falls with Sanskaar in water. However, Sanskaar manages much to not lie down completely but wets himself completely as well as Swara who is dependent on him. He picks his face up to breathe and Swara opens her eyes and finds him, again.
Sanskaar feels her gaze over him and looks in her eyes directly. He skips his several heartbeats and before he could move, he finds her trying to stand up but is still not successful. But, her cute struggle makes it difficult for Sanskaar to be still and he laughs.
Swara looks at him with her sharp eyesight and raises her eyebrows asking what but Sanskaar is just laughing. Swara feels irritated and again tries to stand but falls on his chest hard and he winces in pain. She picks up her face and finds him making faces which cracks her and she bursts into laughter.
Sanskaar stares at her for a few moments and she say, "Tit for tat!" He passes her confuse looks and she signs him to get up first. They both comes out of the water and comes under the shade of trees. They are wet completely and Swara says in anger, "I'm the only person whom you can't see happy, can you?"
Sanskaar is looking at her with his wide eyes not knowing what to say. He nods his head in no cutely and Swara turns her face. "I am..." "I don't want to talk to you." Swara says and moves towards the camp followed by Sanskaar silently. Swara is pissed off and turns to him.
Sanskaar stops and she asks, "Why are you coming behind me? Go your way!" Sanskaar replies, "But, this is the only way, right?" "Wrong!" Swara's answer makes him narrow his eyes and he folds his arms. Swara looks at him in disbelief and turns forward. Swara's anger is rising and the wet clothes are irritating her too.
Poor Sanskaar is just standing behind her knowing not what to do. Suddenly, the same sound comes again and it scares both of them. Swara holds Sanskaar's hand and runs as fast as they can. They are running and running but in some other unknown direction. Finally, both stops and sits under the shade of a big tree. They are panting heavily and are trying to calm themselves.
Coming Next: Swara and Sanskaar are LOST!
