================================================================================

Present:

It was evening,beautiful view of setting sun was visible from swara's bedroom....Sanskar was lost in thoughts he appeared to be restless as if lot of turmoil was going inside him...But his appearance was stiff and straight sitting resting his back on the pillow watching the setting sun without blinking his eyes....Corners of his eyes shined with unknown tears ready to drop out....Just then swara entered with little angel in her arms...Who was hugging her....The baby appeared very beautiful in sky blue shorts paired with white t shirt 2 cute little pony....she had put on lot of chubbiness,Her big eyes now held naughtiness a mystic  happiness....They both were staring at sanskar as he still seemed lost...Swara tip toed near bed and left the angel...As soon as she saw him she rushed into his lap getting tangled with the heart beat monitor wire....Sanskar came out of his stance and looked at the innocent cute little angel sitting on his lap...He removed the wire from her tiny finger and took her in his embrace keeping her pressed to his heart as if she was soothing his pain...He kissed her forehead lovingly..Further kissing her cheeks one by one...She with her tiny hands wiped the tears that rolled out of his eyes...

Mishti : Baba don't crrry...

Sanskar : Kemon accho tumhi baba er jaan? (How are you papa's life)

Swara snapped her head as he mentioned her jaan because thats what he called her and had promised the next person to be called by that name would be their kid...

Mishti encircled her tiny little arms around sanskars big tough frame 

Mishti : (smiling) Bhalo acchi..."Amhi onek missh korechi "( I am fine...I missed you a lot)

Sanskar : Amhi o missh korechi...(I also missed you)...

Mishti: (Pointing towards swara ) : Maa onek bhalo acche (maa is very nice)...amke onek bhalobashe (she loves me a lot)

On the mention of "maa" from mishti's mouth swara was shocked and very emotional her emotions were running out of her eyes as tears....As if some unknown wound had been scratched...Sanskar was looking at the innocent childs face and dreading what if swara asked him any question regarding the mention....As swara was to open her mouth to ask  laksh entered....On seeing mishti he imagined his daughter lehar they resembled so much...Swara in the meantime received a call

Swara : Hello, Tell me the results.

Op : Madam, You were right results are positive high traces...we need to take action soon otherwise it will be very late..

Swara : Its matter of today's night tommorrow i will be in hospital with him....

Swara was tensed looking at sanskar ....when laksh was busy talking to the little angel

Laksh :(wide smile)" Look whose here a little angel" (he was keenly observing her facial features)

Sanskar : She is sweekruti....we call her mishti

Laksh(shocked) : She is our sweekruti....(his eyes were moist) hi angel i am your chachu....

Mishti : Cha...kchu...

Sanskar : Mishti, he is lucky kaku (fathers brother in bengali is called kaku)

Mishti : She assembled the complete information and called him "Lakachu"...

Shamoli : Doesn't it sound like pickachu

Everyone was laughing at child's innocent address for her chachu....Laksh wanted to take her in his embrace but she hid herself into sanskars chest...Laksh showed her chocolate her eyes twinkled at the sight but she first gave a glance at her father who was possessively holding her...He gave her a nod and she leapt into laksh's arm...He again requested her to address him....But she was in no mood and was busily admiring the chocolates...

Mishti : Lakachu...play...

Laksh (smiling) :Yes angel we will play...You know you also have a sister and your chachi she would love to have you back....Come i will show you their pics(then he started showing lehar and Ragini's pic to her in his phone)....

The kid was enjoying the company just then shamoli came in, looking at her mishti signed her to pick her up....She addressed her as pisshimaa(fathers sister is referred as pisshi)....Sanskar was looking puzzled at her address...

Shamoli : I hope you don't have any issue her addressing me by that name...

Sanskar : No not at all you are her kakimaa(kaka's wife kaka is fathers brother) instead but i would love to have a sister....

Laksh and  shamoli were sitting on a couch and mishti was happily playing sitting between them....She was looking tired rubbing her eyes...Sanskar asked shamoli if mishti had food to which shamoli nodded...he asked her to give mishti to him,swara asked him to rest she will put her to sleep as he is not able to sit for a longtime.... 

Swara "Mishti, asho baccha" (Mishti come baby)

Sanskar : Wow Jaan you learnt fluent bengali....

Swara :(with a smirk) My would be loves me talking in bengali....

Sanskar frowned at her answer

As soon as baby came in her warm embrace she drifted to sleep feeling secured...Swara made her lie between her and sanskar baby turned and with her tiny hands held sanskars finger to sleep peacefully...

Shamoli : She does so much drama with mom to sleep daily mom complains and look here she just slept without any fuss. 

Laksh : Seems like she got her world back.....Kids sleep peacefully with their loved ones.... 

Sanskar and swara were staring at the little sleeping figure between them...Sanskars eyes was moist while swaras eyes also held tears but loads of question crowded in her eyes...Sensing that their voices might disturb her sleep....Swara excused herself and carried mishti with her to another room and made her sleep comfortably in a cradle cot surrounded with soft pillows....Covering baby with a soft blanket....She made maid to be with her....

Swara: Laksh ,I made mishti sleep in lehars cradle i hope you don't mind

Laksh : Why being so formal she is also my daughter...

Shamoli (changing the topic sensing the awkwardness of silence): Can we please complete what we left? 

Flashback Sanskars POV

This time sanskar was quick to take the lead to avoid all the questions from laksh and swara.... He started narrating....

Life is always not perfect things started getting ugly between me and swara....After i shifted to London i concentrated on my studies and work....Medico with post graduation has to work in the hospital its a round the clock job with shifts, lecture and practise with seniors.... 5 years went by as eternal bliss even after kavita came in third year those days went on smoothly...Though swara got into some mishaps we managed to keep up the things and still were very happy.....Fifth year laksh decided to get back to India so did Ragini and saahil after their finals and a year work experience...Khushi got married after her finals in a grand manner...Now only me and swara were left in London....In the swara's sixth year of academics my tight work schedules left her with no time....I was drained, because companies in India were having major set back due to recession and in order to maintain the company status we needed to achieve all the contracts that came through...One loss could damage the image of entire Maheshwari empire...Adarsh bhaiya was working on his part but he wasn't much experienced and his amaetur decisions had already cost lots of loss in past 4 - 5 years....

Actually adarsh bhaiya wanted to prove himself therefore he changed the quotes whatever i sent him to his own this caused Maheshwari to loose lot of contracts....He was also not ready to forward my presentation he did everything as per himself which incurred huge loses....Adarsh Maheshwari wanted to get rich in short time but his plans flopped...This was the time to act sensibly and now i had to step in though it was a crucial time for me because in this year i had very important exam which would decide my fate through marks and board members if i could study further to complete my course....Laksh was also their in India helping bhai and bade papa...He is very talented and achieved lot of contracts...He also completed his MBA in this course of time....

Laksh : Thats because i followed my mentor blindly (pointing at sanskar while he just flashed a smile at him)

Sanskars POV Contd:

  It was basically the most crucial time for both of us swara was in her 6th and final year....This was the time when kavita came very close to swara and started manipulating her....Swara also told her about her childhood her family our relationship details....They started spending ample of time together....Kavita always showed everyone she was trying to hold my and swara's relation...On the other hand She made her believe that i was purposely avoiding her as now i am not interested in her...She did everything very smartly...Never ever she blamed me instead supported me in front of everyone during our fights but later put forward examples and instances that happened due to my ignorance....I sometimes due to work had to miss or mess plans at last moment ,but i always sent message if i wasn't able to make it...Kavita being around my messages never reached her or if reached they were shown in different light...I still held on because i knew blaming kavita won't help at this instance because swara was very attached to her by now....Also, relationship survives on trust between two people and 3rd persons interference should not cause issues... I trusted swara a lot and so did she.....

Swara's sneak peak into my room at nights proved to be boon for our relationship....Whatever may happen in the day we could not sleep without each other at night....Therefore all the anger would melt out into the night when i took her into my embrace....Biggest punishment for avoiding swara for a week would be....

Swara : I made him dance for me in the middle of the forest when we were camping after the 1 week of sanskars absconding....The song which i played for sanskar to dance was "Tu cheez badi hain mast mast" it was weired sanskar maheshwari doing rowdy dance but he did it for me.........

Laksh : On a day out at strawberry farm swara as punishment made bhai dance on Dil cheez kya hain aap meri jaan lijiye....Bhai does awesome mujra....Also main aayi hu Up bihar lutne best was she made video of it and sent to all of us back in India .....Hehehe

he got death glares from swara and sanskar...He went silent....Sanskar was thinking something deeply hearing about video....swara noticed change in his expression...She shook him and shrugging he got back to narrating

Sanskar : Frankly speaking everything was worth after seeing smile on swara's face....Loads of weird songs that i danced on....Not only dance but she also made me sing weird songs for her....Stupid dares but i can do anything for her happiness...(swara was all smile by now as if going through rewind)...All these also gave us lovely moments together because after every weird performance i was awarded with lots of love from my jaan...

We had irked kavita enough for 3 years i knew she was planning something but swara being the innocent one wasn't ready to understand her motives....every year we competed with other colleges on international level in arts like singing and dancing....I and swara were partners after our teaming not a single competition was lost...Every year before the competition swara would land up in some trouble....For me she always made it at last..... but last 2 years it was me who landed up broken saving swara ...Everytime it was way ahead of function so we managed to bounce back....This was last year of our team competition because this was her last year...I wanted to make it grand for both of us...This win was very important because this year i was gonna propose her for marriage as promised...After her graduation ceremony we would come back and announce our plan to family....Wait was coming to an end....

Kavita had got into good books of swara thinking she might find way to my friends list further to my heart...She failed miserably because i had sensed her intentions...So, now she was giving me a face to face fight..... This year she wanted to be my partner She had tactfully raised her name through her group of friends and showed swara its not her wish....but i as usual was adamant it would be swara and being opposite team of us swara was selected ...Board decided in my favor....Kavita said " its fine next year it will be us as swara won't be there"(she said it with ease winking at swara) but i had some different plans set up...This year also she was standby its kept if main lead cannot perform due to any consequences the standby will perform....

The day of competition was on the same day as Karwa chauth...As many years as we were together and also far we observed fast for each other...

swara jumping in between the conversation...

Swara : Sanskar fast regime goes very tough as his body immediately goes weak and he had low BP...Its difficult for him to maintain his BP but he keeps fast twice in a year...Both for me one is Karwachauth and other as per guruji's advice once in a year due to his kundlis having some grah dosh (fault in the stars).... His stars are actually not in my favour but till now only landed him in trouble....I was the one who had to keep the fast but sanskar never allowed me and finally every fast sanskar kept he would land up fainting....He is not superstitious but when i knew about this from bade papa...I wanted to do it but he took up on him and nobody can win from Mr Sanskar Maheshwari....

When he fasted in India i was around to take care when i was in London Murali took care of his eating and that he broke fast on time seeing me and moon though video chats.....First time when he fasted in London with everyone around he was on a strict duty regime and was late to get off duty...I was busy with my practicals slept late and had forgotten to remind him of sargi(its food had in early morning before sunrise before we begin fasting after that till night not even drop of water is to be taken)...I got up in the morning pecking his forehead got down and ran straight to kitchen frolicing me,khushi,ragini had our sargi followed by laksh and saahil....When i realised sanskar was late at night was still sleeping i rushed to inform him but it was late by then....He decided he will go ahead fasting empty stomach.....

I was pretty sad and nervous the whole day looking at pale and tired sanskar....He was in Maheshwari company in the morning attending back to back meetings....Later  in afternoon joining in hospital for his work...As he came off duty on the fasting night it was 12 in the midnight....We all were there to get him home i didn't break my fast...We entered the cafe and as he broke my fast he went dizzy and collapsed on the floor....2 days on IV got him back i was so guilty that i fasted for 1 more day till he gained conciousness.....(laughing whole heartedly) When everyone was together laksh and sahil made it a point to be around sanskar while fasting and kept checking him.....Sanskar was eldest but lifeline of the group....

Sanskar POV 

 It was tough competition this year rule was song by couple continued with dance means a total 30 minutes performance on stage.....Partners can be changed but one person of the team had to be the link...I was very happy on other end swara was also gearing up for the competition.....We decided hindi songs and knowing my health woes and stringent schedule swara decided to be the link in all the performance so i got rest....  

2 days before  the competition in the midnight i was rolling on my bed as swara didn't come sleep was far off from my eyes...She had decided to stay with kavita as her room mate had gone on urgent call that night and she feared being alone....Irony one claustrophobhic and nyctophobic accompanying another.... I called up swara irritated so that at least her voice can sooth me to sleep...Fact was i couldn't trust kavita that to 2 day short to the function....As i called swara kavita picked the call in one ring and informed me that swara had slept...I knew it wasn't possible but agreed and disconnected the call....

I was restless and my head started aching thinking about all negativities... I got up at 1 am and marched at kavita's room as it was just few mins away from our house...There my angel was walking absent mindedly in the corridor of 1st floor...I smiled at the thought that even she didn't sleep....I saw kavita in window she had a smirk on her face which scared me but i ignored her.... Standing below the house i called swara but she didn't respond and just kept walking........I saw her coming towards the edge of balcony railing which was open....I tried shouting but in no time she had flipped through it....The height was not much so I Was quick to hold her but then she fell from a certain height and she had landed flat on her bare foot into the lawn below which twisted her ankle with the impact.... she was in my arms shivering i was hell scared looking at her....If i was a moment late she would have landed with severe injuries as there was some sharp objects scattered below....She was clutching on to me with closed eyes...When she found herself safe she tried to stand but was  not able to.....

She didn't knew how she came to the passage....I scooped her in my arms and took her into the room....When i reached the door i saw kavita standing behind the doors of her room...She came out with fake concern on her face showcasing she was asleep i knew she was reason behind swara's state i kept swara on sofa and slapped kavita.... swara defended her but i was in no mood of hearing her defence...I knew she was given mild dosage of sedative - hypnotics drug to keep her asleep but her brain awake....

I carried swara back to our house.....She had twisted her ankle badly...I made her comfortable on bed and strapped her ankle after a cold compress to the swelling and applied some pain reliever  ease out the pain.....I made her have breakfast...We had it in silence she was in dire pain....Soon she drifted off to sleep due to medicine effect in my arms....I didn't talk to her all the while i was just thinking.....Afternoon we had to be in auditorium for final dance and dress rehearsal....Looking at swara's face i knew she was not in a state even to move out of the bed.....Kavita this time had played her cards very well.....

Little Angel....Every child is a angel pure and innocent soul....Its a blessing in disguise a beautiful gift which is given as a treasure from heaven....This little angel was very special...

Will Sanskar enter the competition with kavita?

Is sweekruti swara's daughter?
