A perfect storm that was what had hit the life of Swara ,a month ago. First they were kicked out from her sasural by her husband cousin Adharsh who had signed all the properties under his name .

Then there had been the misunderstanding between her husband and his cousin, Laksh who had assumed her husband sent him to jail on purpose when all he was guilty of was trying to help his cousin from walking on the wrong path.

The misunderstanding split the family further apart as Swara and her husband lost yet another part of their family. Her husband had given up on his family when they had cut them out of their life but Swara couldn't do so not when they blamed him .

And it hadn't been easy on her to convince her sister to trust her and help her ,but due to her mother interference the sister's worked out their differences and tried to reunite their family .

And fortunately the plan worked out ,and Swara had been able to prove her husband innocence and reveal that it had been Adharsh bhai and his wife who were the real culprit that wrecked their lives.

Adharsh bhai and Pari bhabhi were kicked out of the house once Swara and her sister Ragini proved the truth and the family was together again , it was the reason swara woke up in the Maheshwari house a month later with a smile on her face

Swara was the eldest bahu of the house now, given Pari and Adaarsh though forgiven and not sent to jail were still kicked out of the house.

Making Swara the official eldest bahu, And being eldest means being on time for the morning Aarti. She looked around her room and missed the one person she wanted to see the first as soon as she got up, her husband .

It been an month since she saw him. Her heart longed to see him but as always she pushed those thoughts aside with the reassurance that he will come back home soon.

The Morning Aarti was peaceful like the past 30 days, Swara felt content seeing the happy faces of her family everyone standing together with their respecting partners though it did make her miss him, but she is good at hiding it as no one suspected she was sad.

Being the eldest bahu meant preparing for the puja that conducted in the house only 7 times in a week . And so she busied herself in work ,she get to see her maa and baba in the puja with ayush and dadi and dadaji too.

While Bade papa , Sanskar's uncle kicked out Pari and Adaarsh ,her Mom refused to kick out dadi as she loves to forgive everyone just like her , So Swara had to request dadaji to come from exile so that dadi will not kick her mom out once again.

It was around 11 that swara finally returned back to her room, The room that holds all her precious memory with Sanskar.

She missed him and she regretted not going with him too , He did ask her to come with him but she said No because her family needed her.

Bade Papa just went through surgery, Pari and aadarsh was kicked out and Ragini only cant handle the whole responsibility of the house and there was still maa baba reunion mission pending back then .

So she choose to stay behind, small sacrifice of her happiness for family. She was inclined to choose family over her happiness every time. And now she is missing him and that ensured another sleepless night.

*****************

Mean while there was Sanskar having an sleepless night as well. Day passes by quick as he busies himself with work. He is trying to start an new business venture as he wanted it to be as far away from his home, So choose Delhi as his location.

After all the recent events he regretted merging his company with Maheshwari and co , He started that company for revenge maybe that why it was always cheated out of his hands every time. Now he is gonna start a new business venture.

Not for revenge but to keep himself busy and occupied, to keep his mind from not thinking about her. He used this method to forget about kavita, kept occupied in developing karma and co and kept planning on the ultimate revenge.

And he is using the same method to forget about Swara, But it not working this time. It been one month and yet he has barely slept in this whole month.

Sleep eludes him, every time he closes his eyes her face pops up and it leaves him sleepless, And to add on top of it ,there is his conscience targeting him for leaving her when he claimed to love her so much.

He never expected anything from her well that what he promised himself when he first decided to help her, then he wanted her friendship ,then he wanted her love ,and now he wanted her to choose him over her family.

Why did he become this selfish , He told her never to change but why does it hurt so bad when she choose her family over him. And why cant he go back to her why is he torturing himself by staying away from her.

It not like he is enjoying being away from her, Because he cant go back to that house. He cant forgive them like she did.

**************

A week had passed by but still Sanskar was struggling with his conscience as well as lack of sleep that he didnt know when he finally slept. But the constant knock on his door woke him up . He was living alone in the apartment and he had no idea who would wanna wake him up this early.

A very grumpy and annoyed Sanskar opened up the door and was shocked to see her standing right outside of his apartment .

" Wont you invite me in,well technically this is my house. So i am gonna just invite myself in"his wife spoke up surprising him

" Swara" , he spoke up unable to form any other words .

" Yes, I am swara . Your wife, if you haven't forgotten" She answered back with a smile .

" What are you doing here, "he asked which made her lose the smile as she glared at him .

" Well i missed my husband, So i came to see him" she spoke up as she continued to glare at him .

" Why didn't you say anything when i called last night" he asked because he wasn't prepared to face her not get

" I wanted it to be a surprise "she replied back

" But how did you know my address.?" he asked again earning her wrath

" Seriously you are seeing me after one month and you wanna interrogate me now, Your dad told me where to find you when i asked. Questions over" she spoke up miffed with him

Well he didnt want to interrogate her, Seeing her was more than enough. He gently wrapped her in an hug and she hugged him back finally happy to be back in his embrace. She missed him and it good to be back with him.
