Some unspecified time in the future: A very Short Epilogue into the future..
                     

 Swara Sanskar Maheshwari have never been this busy her whole life, but today is not the day she can sit back and relax. Being Eldest Bahu of the Maheshwari was not an easy ask apparently, especially when the one and only daughter of the Maheshwari Family is getting married. 

The house was in a Chaos as it began to be filled with guests and family,  her eyes wandered to notice a four year old boy  running towards her husband and colliding with him in full force with tears on his eyes. It was kind of daily occurrence in their life for Arav to run to Sanskar at every single problem , to others it might seems like a simple problem but to Sanskar and Arav,  each and every problem of Arav deserves to be looked into and solved asap.       

Today problem of the day was that his father Lakshya refused to let Arav to hold the new baby. And it took sometime for Sanskar to convince Arav that the baby is too new and fragile that his father will let him play with her soon. Swara had a proud look on her face to see him handling the kids. Her husband always has the  best solution to every little problem when it comes to the kids. 
     

But as time passed the whole Maheshwari clan got busy as well not just Swara, Sanskar was busy with the guests, Sujatha refused to leave her daughter side and remained seated in  Uttara room, Lakshya and Ragini  were busy with the Groom family and making sure they don't lack anything.

And the Kids were left with Pari and Adarsh. Pari being an new mother who just gave birth to her second child few weeks ago was allowed to sit in an room and just look after the kids, Pari already missed Swara and Ragini wedding, so she refused to miss her remaining sister wedding as well, Their relationship might be complex and distant to other but to them they are just four sisters.

 Family is strength with a big family like Swara, no task seemed impossible as the wedding plans went much easier than Swara anticipated, there was always someone around to help for everything . Soon everything was in order . The bride and groom have finally reached the mandap .And swara began to relax after a long time.
                  

The wedding ritual was about to start and just like that her husband found his way back to her. He gently wrapped his arm around her shoulder and stood there finally happy to found his wife . 

" So the offer still stands what do you say?" her husband asked her as she leaned on to him with a smile on her face.

" No Sanskar, Please don't joke around, I already told you right." Swara answered back trying to look at her husband carefully and wondering at the same time, if he had went ahead with his plans in spite of her saying No repeatedly 

" Who said  I am joking, I can ask Uttara and her husband permission right now, and we can make this a joint wedding like the one we had but this time with smile on our faces." her husband spoke up making her smile because she realized he hadn't planned anything without her consent. But he was serious about the offer 

" I know we didn't get the wedding we wanted but I have zero complaints Sanskar, So how about you let this crazy plan of your slide " Swara told her husband, it had began when Pari her sister  told them that she missed planning out Swara wedding an month ago and Sanskar had stuck on the idea that she would want one as well. 

" It not crazy Ragini agreed for a joint wedding right" her husband asked her instead

" She agreed because of her husbands demand. And you don't know how much she complained about it, let your sister have this one day, you have the remaining 364 days to surprise me with you plans. Haven't you done enough already. Trying to make all her pre wedding function ours as well, since we didn't get to have them " Swara spoke up but can't help but smile at the way her husband had managed to continue to surprise her every single day even after years of being married , his love for surprising her never faded away.

" So what, it not like Uttara  knows about them" her husband answered back with a smile , she let him assume as such because she didn't want those surprises to stop or change as she loved them but maybe it was time to tell him the truth as well. 

" Yeah sometime men cant even understand simple things, do you think she didn't notice this new ring in my hand  after her engagement, do you think she didn't notice all the time you dragged me in the midst of the functions to have you own private ceremony. She knows, she is kind enough not to call you or me on it. So  just let this one day be special to her without your awesome plans" Swara answered back truthfully and laughed at how shocked her husband seemed to be at the revelation.

" I give up the crazy plan then , Instead you will agree to come with me on an vacation next week " her husband offered up next after few minutes of silence and Swara was more than happy to agree with it 

"Deal.. Asha would be thrilled" Swara answered back excited with the family get away after the busy months planning Uttara wedding, focusing on opening her dance school and still finding time to focus on her family, some time left her feeling she needed a vacation and as always her husband planned it for her                

When the Wedding ceremony got over, and the time for Uttara to leave the house arrived, there wasn't a single adult in the house who weren't close to tears.  While everyone anticipated this moment ever since her wedding was fixed, no matter how much time they spend together after that assuring each other nothing will change even when she gets married. Still when the moment finally arrived no one was happy to finally let her go away from this house though her new house is just an hour away.                     

It was tearful farewell from all sides, Sujatha must have cried a whole lot, followed by the four sisters as if they cant bear to be separated, though not lot of tears were shed when it comes to her farewell with her brothers, Uttara knew her brothers will be the one who misses her a lot. She got two over protective brothers . They love her so much and still think of herself as a kid.

So when her wedding topic was raised they both were so against it, that there wife needs to convince them and when Uttara brought in her college friend as her boyfriend. She thought they would just say no but instead her husband was interrogated for an whole day before they let him leave and after checking up on him and his family Sanskar finally gave his consent followed by Lucky. Though they wanted the marriage to happen after 6 months. The groom side wanted an early one. So three months later their little sister is finally married and leaving their house as well . That it had been hard on everyone in spite of it being an happy occasion.
                  

 The house became silent during that night, the usual laughter and fun missing. All of them sat and talked till late night and Sujatha was the first one to retire to her room , followed by Lakshya and Sanskar to their respective rooms as they both know once Swara and Ragini started talking it will be hours before they both stop  and right now they are talking about how there is just two of them instead of three like yesterday, so it unlikely this two will get to see their wife soon .Everyone was sad except the two kids who taught their  Uttara aunty is going on an vacation and that she will come back soon. They probably must have the only one who had sent her off with kisses and smile on thier faces. After all the excitement there were the first one to sleep as well.
                         

Sanskar Maheshwari loved his little sister, they shared such a strong bond that grew much stronger after their parents death, While the sister all had fun together ,still the brothers were as much part of her life as the sisters, There are countless time Uttara and Sanskar used to spend talking with each other losing track of time, countless time Lucky and Uttara would fight for silly reason and ask him to be the judge  but then they would make up with  hug .And now that she is no longer in the house it feel really empty as well. He was lost in his thoughts when his wife finally came into the room ..

" Our daughter is finally asleep in her room, I told her about the vacation she is so excited " Swara spoke up as she got into the bed beside him.

" You and your sister were close right, so how did you manage it when she got married" Sanskar asked her, because he finally realized the distance a marriage brings into an family even if it was for a joyous occasion.

" Well I cried , I cried and cried for a whole week before finally coming into terms with it. I still miss those days Sanskar when it was just me and my sister with our Parents,  but I am happy with my new family as well, My family just grew into more than less because Pari di got married , I got a lovely brother in law, adorable Nephew in Rahul and now my little Niece Rashi . Uttara will be too while she will surely miss us a lot, she will find happiness in her new family as well .So dont worry "

 " Yeah then there is her promise " Sanskar spoke up making her remember the childish demands from Laksh and Sanskar from Uttara before agreeing to let her get married.

" Yeah she promised to come once a month and spend an weekend here with her husband right , plus she is just an hour away and you can meet her anytime, but you have to get along with the her husband better now that they are married, he is still scared of both you and Lakshya.. " Swara answered back with a smile 

 "What is there to be scared of us? " her husband asked as if he didn't know the answer to that question

" You don't know how scary you both can be when it comes to your sister , At least Ragini escaped because she has a son , I worry about our daughter , what will you do when she bring her boyfriend home like Uttara" Swara teased him but the pure shock in her husband face only made her laugh more .

" No way,  Asha wont do that. She just a kid. Stop scaring me like that Shona," her husband answered back and she would have laughed again if not for the truth behind his words

" Yeah I am glad that she is still a kid and we have long time left with her before we have to think about her marriage as even I don't think I can live without seeing her everyday" Swara was quick to admit as well. Her daughter was already growing up so fast, Swara felt like it has been just yesterday she held the little one in her arms and yet she was no more a baby but a little girl now who may soon start to go to School. Their talk were disturbed when their little girl came inside the room  And an concerned Swara immediately rushed to her side .

" What up dear, Why did you get up " Swara asked her daughter as her mind whirled in different direction wondering what woken up her daughter 

" I forgot " her daughter answered in two words not fully awake yet and Swara looked helplessly at her husband to interfere, he was the one good with kids after all.

" Forgot what beta ," her husband asked their daughter as he lifted her up in his arms much to the little one delight who simply loved being carried by her father everywhere .

" Forgot to kiss you both before sleeping, I was too tired so I went to sleep before that ..." their daughter spoke up in her sleepy voice making their heart melts with her love                   

Sanskar and Swara were always moved by their little girl innocence and love. Each day she gives them a plenty of reason to be happy, since she was in her husband arms, she kissed his cheeks first and then moved her chubby hands in Swara direction asking her to come closer so she could kiss her as well .

Only after that she pointed at the bed asking her father to  drop her there .And within matter of minutes she fell asleep all over again

"See our lovely daughter who loves her father so much and how about her mother shows me her love as well " Sanskar teased her now when Asha finally fell asleep.

  Swara did just as he asked gently leaned on to him and kissed his cheeks, they may have been married for few years but still each moment of affection between them made Swara happier than ever, her husband loved her so much and she loved him back with equal intensity that only seemed to grow as time passed by and with him by her side, she felt completely happy.
