"You may leave now! I just pretended to respect yiu just because shekar was alive and now you have no relation left with me and this house.. You are a complete stranger to me now and tie up your bags and bid goodbye to this mansion which is all mine now!" Janaki said in high pitch pointing towards ragini's mother ,making everyone at home to get rooted to their place....

Ansh wiggled & stood up at once...he found himself in hospital corridor, he was sleeping in sitting position and it was a nightmare!.

He picked his phone from the pocket and thought to call Swara to ask whether she is fine or not..he dialled swara's number but before he press call button he pressed back button..

"No she might be busy in preparation and moreover she will ask about baba and will get sad..she is with bhayya & she must be fine" he said to himself and walked towards ICU.. He is standing there outside watching shekar through hole..

Their night walk, their little fight, their prank, the way they used to pull each other's leg till late night, their pillow fight, their midnight food session, his kiddish tone talks with them and everything, I mean every bit of things came flowing like a moving picture in front of ansh making him to weep..

He stood there itself sobbing, wiping the small glass hole ...

____________

Swasan side:-

Swara is looking out through glass and sanskar is driving slowly to make it a bit long journey.. He selected a song from his playlist and let them play..

Sometimes long journey and gentle music is a best medicine for broken heart to heal..

Swara closed her eyes just to feel the music, unknowingly a tear brimmed down to her lap...

Half an hour later sanskar jerked the car while she opened her eyes and gave a confused look.. He took a turn to park it ...

"Let's buy some outfit for you" he said making out s steering wheel..

Swara is about to open her mouth to say something but he cuts her-

"Little squirrel, many guests and people will gather there & you want to look ugly infront of them?"

"Say directly that I'm looking ugly" Swara snapped..

"Arrey I never meant that"

"Then what? There's no point in taunting indirectly after all I'm not dumb..& lemme say if you want a beautiful to give concert for your academy's inaugural then your choice is worst" she bites her lower lip saying the last sentence as she remembered janaki's words and how she used to abuse her calling out ugly..

"I never found another beauty like you in this whole universe" his words echoed in the car even though he stepped down..

They shopped a gown for her..sanskar had to convince her lot to buy that & atlast she agreed..sanskar himself bought matching sandals and accessories for her while she was like 'what's the need of all this?'

______________

Music academy:-

They entered inside academy and Swara went waw with the interiors..she never knew this monster had such a good taste..

"This is my dad's plan" he said looking at her stuffing hands inside pocket..

"Oh I thought how can you do this?" Swara said hiding her laughter.. He glares her,she immediately makes puppy eyes to melt him..she is smiling but it never reached her eyes, that realisation stabbed his heart to bleed..

"Won't he come?" Swara asks as they entered the cabin..

"He is working on a important project" he said in nonchalant tone making her hard to figure out whether he is happy with that or sad..

"So here you rest for sometime" he said & opened door to go out..

"No..you don't go.." She immediately got alert seeing him moving out, he stops and turns to see her pleading eyes ..he sighed and looks at her..she bited her inner cheeks playing with the corner of her dupatta..

"You practice song then" he said sitting in couch there & pulling her too to the couch..

She loses balance and falls on him leading to a cute eyelock..it is sweet but he missed a glow in her eyes which made him go urghh!

She immediately gets up realising her position and looks everywhere except him..

There prevailed a silence again!!

"You go if you have work, I will be sitting here" Swara said with great difficulty..

"Are you sure?"

"Yeah"

"Then bit later I will come & you can practice once again later" he says for which she simply nods..

"Btw you want coffee tea anything?" He asks turning again, but she nods negatively..

______________________________

Swara sat there itself in couch for about an hour.. She got up at once getting angry as every single moment she shared with her baba only came in her mind making her to lose herself..

She walks towards window and opened the door.

Swara's pov:-

It's been about an hour since Sanskar left me here & from that moment this memories are haunting me...every moment with him was jesting... I fear of loosing him...it's been only a month since I connected to baba..I mean he loved me before also & even I did but we never ought to know each other.. That janaki never left our shadow to fall on each other.. I just don't want to think about that evil women again.. I want to delete her from my history and that is the only reason I wish to have a memory loss...

Again my thoughts went to maa & I'm sure if I didn't stopped thinking about her I would end up crying like I do always.. But these days I really get her memory less compared to those days because now I have people to talk with; baba, ansh & sanskar..

Yeah sanskar from nowhere became my friend and you know he plays very important role in my life.. You know what he says he feels restless when I'm not good & to be honest even I feel the same..

Ah again ! I try to divert myself but see no! You might have got to know how much my baba means to me..obviously he is my everything after all I'm a motherless child, who is deprived of mother's love..so after I started to talk to baba I expected soo much & see it's proving yet again expecting is not what life meant to be..

But what to do? I always dream to be loved..I used to get jealous seeing other girls with their mother .. it's not that I want everyone to be motherless like me ,it's just I want to be with my mother like them.. But it's not my fate is...it's unique like you know interesting.. Every time it's exciting as I know something bad might surely happen everyday..

I felt my knees very weak to Stand there anymore.. I sat there itself on floor in one corner..

Pov ends..

After an hour sanskar rushed to the cabin to check her..she heard a crack sound of door opening ..she was resting her head on her knees, hugging knees tight.. She stood up at once and hugged him calling "baba..."

Damn he looked like baba to her! She is mad about her father!

"Little squirrel" he is shocked to core seeing her all devasted & moreover she's hugging him..
He cursed himself for leaving her alone..

She breaks the hug and looks at him, closes her eyes in pain as it's not shekar.. With closed eyes she hugged him again squeezing inside his arms.. He too hugged her back.. She placed her head on his chest and hugged comfortably now without sensing that it's their first hug!

They hugged for more than five minutes and when he loosened grip over her,

"Please don't leave" she whispered tightening the hug, while he too hugged her tight than tighter...

"Sanskar I don't know what crap I will do on stage but I'm sure I can't go with a song" Swara herself breaked the hug and wiped tears from corner of her left eye...

"Shhh! You will fire the stage" he planted a kiss on her forehead..

"I can't do with this song sanskar... I will make it a black spot on singer's name If I sang this happy song in this vulnerable state" Swara talked sensly ..

"Then which song would do now?" He asks understanding her ..

"I don't know" he murmurs..

"You practiced that song alot na"

"But still sanskar, mood makes the song "

"What about tu hi aana?" Swara looks at him with hopefulness..

Really she want to sing an emotional song?? goddd! This girl is planning to make everyone cry..

"I'm OK with whatever song you wish to sing" he smiles at her, that warmed her heart..

"Still sanskar I'm afraid what if I couldn't sing? What if I lost track of melody?"

"Shhh little squirrel, I trust you and I believe in yourself!" He kept his index finger on her lips..

This is what true friends are like: they believe you even when you fails to believe in yourself...

If you found such a friend then you found a treasure❤

She looks at him all amused, but he pecks her forehead once again..

"I will sit in first row in front of you and think me as your confidence.. Don't look at others if you feel nervous, just look at me and trust me I will try my best to encourage you" he said lovingly & picks his phone from pocket, he types 'tu hi aana ' in YouTube & plays the song..twice he made her hear & third time he asked her to sing along with them..

He didn't cared about concert much, all he care is about her and only her..so he just made her song twice and asked her to stop, he didn't wanted to pressurize her after all he believed in her talents and that angelic voice..

_________________________________

She entered the stage after laksh calls her name and welcomes..

Lights gets on focusing on the middle of stage where she is standing.. She is holding meroon color gown in both her hands so as to walk comfortably... She just puffed her hair infront & left the rest free..haiye rabba! She's looking heavenly beautiful!

Musicians started playing music..
She looks at sanskar while he presses his eyes reassuring her..she smiles meekly & sings..

Tere jaane ka gham
Aur na aane ka gham
Phir zamaane ka gham
kya karein?

Raah dekhe nazar
Raat bhar jaag kar
Par teri toh khabar na mile

Once again she looks at the entrance for her baba, somewhere in her heart she hoped him to come here..

Bahut aayi gayi yaadein
Magar iss baar tum hi aana
Iraade phir se jaane ke nahi laana
Tum hi aana!

Even though the writer wrote it assuming two love birds, she felt every word of it .. For her maa & baba are her lovers..maybe no one could feel the song as she did..she knows how much it costs to miss someone loved!

Meri dehleez se hokar
Bahare jab guzarti hain
Yahan kya dhoop, kya saawan
Hawayein bhi barasti hain

Hume poochho kya hota hai
Bina dil ke jeeye jaana
Bahut aayi gayi yaadein
Magar iss baar tum hi aana

At this point she is feeling mad..dammit! She is missing her maa like hell..every things flowed infront of her making her to sink in that..she tried to gulp the lump formed in her throat but failed..

All looked tensed when they found her in tears and couldn't able to sing further..

Koi to raah woh hogi
Jo mere ghar ko aati hai
Karo peechha sadaaon ka
Suno kya kehna chahati hai

All turned their head chasing the voice, & there sanskar stood up singing and walked towards the stage..she smiled at him in tears and joined him..

Tum aaoge mujhe milne
Khabar yeh bhi tum hi laana
Bahut aayi gayi yaadein
Magar iss baar tum hi aana

Swara is in tears and even all those audience are in...they could be able to feel every bit of this song.. After all it's sung so meaningfully..

Marjaavaan... Marjaa...

She hugged him in the stage itself while they heard a single applaud followed by others & Swara blinks once , twice, thrice & he didn't disappeared..

There stood shekar at the door!

He stretched his arms and she ran fast as she could to reach him and grabbed a hug... He twirled her ...all audience hooted looking at this rarely seen pure love ...sanskar wiped his unshed tears and walked towards them.. Shekar pulled him too & ansh too making a hug more pleasant and enjoyable...
