Sanskar : and i also said swara i will not leave you ?… Not anymore swara… Not anymore… You have to come to me… You have to… Understand???
He shouts… Swara looks at him angrily…
Sanskar : why swara… Everytime why us… You know what swara… My… My blood boils with anger whenever i see that laksh and Ragini… Look na they forget everything in a minute and now they are dreaming about their future with their baby… Their own baby… And what about us… We are here… Standing in this dark street opposite to each other showing our ego… Why… Tell me na why…
Sanskar cries… Swara now looking at him with still eyes…
Swara : this game started by you sanskar…
Sanskar : han… Han… This all started by me… I am a bad husband… Who let his wife dance like a entertaining dancer in front of all… Who can’t save her wife from those blo*dy men’s lust full eyes… I am that worst husband who mistrust his wife and accuse her for another guy… I am that bad husband who accepts his family whole heartedly but not his wife… But this worst bad animal jerk husband always loves his wife… Always… His every breath, every heartbeat always calls his wife… Every second every minute i just pray for you… Why you left me swara why…
Swara chuckles… : why i left you?? Right… Rathet can say why i left me… Don’t You know…
Sanskar shouts : no i blo*dy don’t know… For that divorce… Kya karta main swara kya karta (broke down… And sits on his knees)… That day… You left with ragini… I shut the door on your face… With that i thought i have closed the door of my heart… Lekin nei… Aisa nei hua… Mere yaado ke dareezo se tum har roz mere samne ate the… Main dur jitna bhi jane ki koshis karta… Tum mere pi6e bhagte the… Ek gam jo tumne mujhe dia tha wo mujhse nei vulaya gya swara… Issliye khudse ye wada kia ki ak din tumhare samna khada ho kar tumhe ye ahsas dilaunga ki main bura tha magar itna bhi nei… Warna tumhare har ilzaam apne sar uthalo… Jo kar paya… Magar nei socha tha ki main khud bhi har raha hu… Uss din tumhe divorce de kar tumhe bas ye ahsas dilwana chahta tha ki dekho… Ek din jin sab k lie tumne mujhe chhoda tha… Mere baato ka maan na rakha wo log tumhe apne kam me use kar ke tumhe chhod dia… Chahe wo tumhare sautela bahan ho ya tumhare apni ma…
Swara looks at him…
Sanskar : what… What are you looking at me… Your that sister… Your mother… What they do… Only shades their tears… Only for some months… Then back to their normal life… But me… You… What we did swara… Look at you… You lost yourself and i lost everything… Again i lost everything… Jalan hoti h mujhe… Khun kholta h mera jab bhi uss ghar ki har ek insaan ko normal zindegi jeete dekhta hu… Har ek din jab dekhta hu ki wo log kitne khush h or main akela… All alone… None is with me… Tumhe pata h… Main subha k 6 baje office jata hu rat 2 baje lot ta hu… Kiun ki nei rah pata uss kamre me main… Sote hue ja bed ki dusri side dekhta hu toh tumhe hallucinate karta hu… Par jab chhuna chahu toh… Nei… Nei ho tum wahan… Nei ho… I searched you everywhere… You knew that… For this only you change your name didn’t came in front of media… I know…
Swara was still standing there with blank face… Not even blinking her eyes… Sanskar’s pain piercing her heart like thousand needle…
Sanskar goes to her cups her face : jis payar k lie ek din main lada tha… Ek din tum ladi thi… Aj kya wo payar kahi nei h swara??… Kya h ye sab swara… Ye kapde ye shaarab… Kiun… Mere lie?? Kya main itna paraya hu swara tumhare lie… Maine jaane ko kaha tum chali ayi… Kabhi toh mere ek baat nei suni tumne… Fir ussdin kiun suni thi… Kiun gayi thi… Why didn’t you ask me a single question… Bas sign kar di… Fir chali ayi… Do char thappar hi mar leti… Dat ti… Jhagad ti… Lad ti… Kuch bhi kar ti… Man leta swara sab ku6 man leta… Lekin ye… Kiyun… Kiyun… Kab tak aise jiyenge hum swara… Mar raha hu main har roj… Lot ao Please mere paas…. Hamare pass… Please… Please…
Sanskar join their forehead and cries… But swara not…she was still in same situation…
Sanskar Crying very much: i am sorry swara (hugs her tightly) please come back to me… I am dying please…
Suddenly sanskar’s phone rings… Sanskar breaks the hug… And takes out the phone… Dida calling…
Sanskar wipes his tears… : ji dida… Han swara is with me… Ok… I am coming…
Sanskar looks at swara with same expression…
Sanskar : ok dida…
Sanskar : swara let’s go… I will drop you home…
Swara doesn’t move a little…
Sanskar : shonaa… Chalo…
Sanskar release a deep sigh… Then hold her by shoulder… Swara looks at him… Sanskar feels her gaze… But doesn’t look at her…and takes her towards the car… The whole way swara was staring at sanskar… With still expressionless eyes… Seems like she is searching something in him…
Both come home… Dida gets happy to see swara stable… But her smile fades away seeing her blank still expression… Swara blankly walks towards her room…
Dida: sanskar… What happened to her… Why she is looking like this… This was same look… I met with her 1.5 years back… Is she alright??
Sanskar : i don’t know dida… I don’t know…
He kneels down and breaks in to tears….
Here in swara’s room…
She shut the door and sits on bed… Everything revolving in her mind….
‘i love you swara’
‘aj agar main jit gya na toh tabh bhi tumhara or mera rishta khatam’
‘yaad rakh na swara… Ye chaukhat laxman rekha h tumhare liye… Isse par ki toh tum kabhi iss ghar me wapas nei aa paogi’
‘sign this paper… And from now you are free’
‘dard hota h mujhe swara… Mar raha hu main… Lot aao swara… Please forgive me’
‘i love you… Dard hota h…. Sign this pape… Humara rishta khatam… Please comeback’
Swara press her ears with her palms and shouts : aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa……….
Sanskar and dida looks up…. : swara/sharu…
Both runs upstairs….
Here… Swara messing the whole room… Shouting madly…. Lastly she throws her own photo… And sits at a corner of a room… And after 1year 7 month 5day… Tears comes from her eyes…. She was shouting and crying vigorously….
Sanskar enters in the room breaking the door… He immediately scan the whole room and spots swara at the corner…. He runs to her… But dida stands still looking at her granddaughter crying vigorously… Her eyes well up with tears… But smile played on her lips…
Sanskar tries to hug her… But swara push him again and again… At last… Sanskar forcefully drags her in his tight embrace… Swara struggles for a minute then wraps her hand around his neck and cries more…
Sanskar : sssshhhh…. Sssshhhh…. Stop…
Dida: na sanskar… Let her cry… Don’t stop her…
Sanskar nodes and dug his face in her shoulder… After 2 hours sanskar is looking at a space thinking about past… When he heard light snoring sound and looks at her… She is in deep sleep… Still wrapping his neck…
Servant: sir bed is ready…
Sanskar looks at swara’s bed… He nodes and scoops her slowly.. He slowly place her on bed… He slowly departs her hand… Swara feels it in sleep and makes a crying face… Sanskar cares her hair slightly hug her again… Swara Again goes in deep slumber…. Sanskar gets up… And looks at dida… He gives a faint smile… Then again looks at swara…
Dida: we won sanskar… Look now she will be like before…
Sanskar Looking at swara : nah dida… I lost… Look what i have done.. To her… To me… To us…
He press his palm in his mouth to prevent the loud sound of cry…
Dida place hand on his shoulder…
Next morning… Swara wakes up… Her face is dull and pale… She looks so weak… She looks around… And find sanskar looking at her leaning on doorframe… She looks at him blankly… Dida comes from behind with a tray…
Dida: sharu…
Swara was thinking about last night… She looks at them again…
Dida comes to her… And cares her hair…
Swara blankly : why you all did this to me…
Dida: shona??
Swara : aj firse main wohi jagah par khari hu… Jahan 1.5 saal pahle thi…
Sanskar : no swara… No… You are not… Aj tum wahan khari ho jahan se tum… Main… Hum dono sab paa sakte h… Sab kuch…
He sits in front of her…
Sanskar : difference will be this much ki… This swara and sanskar will only know each other… None else…
He Place a card in front of her…
Sanskar : today i have a business party… On my honor… Business associates want Mrs sanskar maheshwary with me… I always say an excuse for your absence… But today i will wait for you… If you come this sanskar is yours… If you dont come… Toh bada h tumse swara (put his hand on her head) you will not see my anymore anywhere in this world… Sanskar maheshwary’s face will never come in front of you… Promise…
Sanskar removes his hand…. Then pecks her lip and leaves the house… Swara was looking at the card… Dida feed her a little..
It’s afternoon … Nearly 5 pm..
Swara is in her room… Dida comes in her room…
Dida: sharu… Tu ready nei hui??
Swara looks at her…
Dida takes a deep breath : you are going right??
Swara looks away : where??
Dida: don’t be so foolish swara… Warna jindegi ki anth mein jab hisab karne bathegi… Tab agar tune unlogoko kusurbar thahraya toh bagwan bhi tujhe maaf na karegi… You get that chance.. Jo naseebwalo ko milta h…
She left…
It’s almost 8…
It’s a business party…
Sanskar takes a deep sigh looking at the door… Then chuckles and nodes his head…
Business associate head: what happened Mr maheshwary… And i told you to bring your better half… And today atleast don’t give any lame excuse today…
Sanskar sighs.. And bend down his head…
Associate head: are you really married mr maheshwary… Or any kind of bad relations with your wife…
Sanskar : i think sir that’s my personal matter…
Ah: yes i wanna know your personal matter cause my daughter is crazy fan of yours…
Points towards a girl with highly short dress looking at him from bar counter seductively…
Sanskar rolls his eyes…
Sanskar up his hand and show him his engagement ring : i am a married man sir… So please… And i truly love my wife…
Ah: and may be she not… So..
Suddenly some noises comes from outside… Sanskar looks at his watch 8:30… His heart pain so much…
One month later…
Big sea… In between a small island… As far as we can see none is there….
A guy is sitting on the beach of the island… Looking at isolated sea… Sun is setting… He os staring at it with gloomy face… A tear escape from his eyes…
He stands up and goes to a tree… Swara + sanskar written in a heart shape… He cares it…
Then takes a sharp stone… Then draw a line…
He counts the line 30 lines… A lone tear escape… Yes it’s sanskar
Sanskar : i hope i am keeping my promise swara…
End…
