(Swara’s POV) Next day, I got up; I had black rings under my eyes. I couldn’t sleep at all. I got ready to go the registrar’s office to meet Uncle. Rahul was there waiting for us.
(Swara) “Hi,Rahul. Where is Mrs.Singh? She is the one who is supposed to sign the documents, right?” Uncle and Rahul both looked surprised.
(Dev) “Swara, didn’t you read the documents? The place belongs to Sanskar. I cannot imagine you missing out such simple things.”
(Swara) “Really?” Then, I can apologise to him in person. I was worried since he won’t talk with me or meet me but, I can apologise to him here and now.
(Rahul) “Yeah. But that fellow has never been late like this. What is keeping him so long? Did you see him at the club?”
(Swara) “No. I didn’t see him yesterday or when I left today. I don’t think he will be coming with me here. Anyway, I need something to drink. I will be near the vending machine. Call me if he comes.”
(Rahul) “Sure,Swara. But… ah! She ran away. What did she mean by that he wouldn’t be coming? He called me up today and told not to be late.”
(Uncle) “Don’t know.”
(Swara) I sat to have a cup of instant coffee. I am really a fool. When I was looking out for Sanskar, I petrified seeing a person come. It was my Nanaji. I instantly bent my head down and hid my face with my hair that was hanging front. It has been years since he saw me, but I hope he won’t recognise me.
FLASHBACK :{“Sharmishta! Sharmishta! Open the door up.”
Opening the door, “(Sleepy) Papa, are you home? Maa isn’t here. Papa!! You are not Papa. Who are you?”
Pushing Swara down, “You little wretch! You are the one that is making my daughter’s life miserable. You must be just like your father. You don’t even resemble my daughter. How could you have inherited her qualities? Black hair, pale skin, you are the reincarnation of the devil who has come to kill my daughter and me, just like your father. You are just as stubborn as your father, not letting her go. Why can’t she have the life she wishes just because of eyesore like you? Where is your brother? You are going to the orphanage right this moment. Where is your brother?”
Dragging Swara, “Let go of me, Maa, MAA help, let go, let go, you bad person”
Throwing her down, “Who is the bad person? She has taken your brother with her, eh? I will come again and make sure both of you get out of her life after the divorce.” He left. I don’t know how long I was crying. My mother calmed me down when she came back. The next day Dev Uncle came to pick us up.“Maa, I am sorry, Maa. I won’t cry. I won’t be a bad girl. Please Maa, don’t send me away, I will be a good girl, Maa. I am sorry. I am sorry. I am sorry!!!”
FLASHBACK ends}
(Sanskar) I got there late. The past three days have been the most miserable time of my life. I have never been tardy at work. I tried my best not to let my feelings pull my performance down but I couldn’t help it. Honestly, I don’t feel like doing anything. I was harsh on Jo the other day. I must apologise to her. It is only obvious of her to doubt my feelings, with me being this type of a guy. I reached there and saw Uncle & Rahul waiting. I apologised and asked where Swara is. They said that she went to get a drink. I went in search for her. I found her slouched over a seat near the vending machine. I could see that she was shivering. Why? I went and stood beside her. No reaction. I patted her slightly. She suddenly clung to me.
(Swara) “I am sorry, I am sorry!” She was crying.
(Sanky) “Shona.”
(Sanky in his mind) She kept crying. Her uncle told that she never has cried but, she has been crying in front of me. I really couldn’t understand why. Maybe, I am the reason this time? After she calmed down,
(Swara)“I am very sorry, Sanskar. I am sorry.”
(Sanky)“You ok? I am not mad. I never thought that you would cry for it. I didn’t realise that I was being cruel. I am very sorry.”
(Sanky mesmerised) She looked up and gave me her sweetest smile amid her dried up tears.
(Swara) “Sanskar, you are so sweet. I wanted to apologise for talking like that the other day. Don’t say uncle that I cried now. I didn’t cry because you were cruel. You are so kind,
Sanskar. I remembered something that is why. Besides, you were absolute right. I was a jerk that day. I am sorry. Please, don’t avoid me like that again.”
(Sanky in his mind) She said it holding onto me. This girl! She makes me even more miserable. She makes me hope, hope that one day she will be mine and mine alone.
(Sanky)“Ok. Up you go. Here (giving his handkerchief), wipe off the tear stains. Let us go and complete the registration.”
The registration went on without any obstacles. When we were about to leave, someone with a loud or more like authoritative voice called out.
“Is that Gupta? What a surprise to see you here? How are you?”
(Dev) “Ah… Mr. Sen (Swara’s Nanaji), how do you do? I am good, thank you.” He glanced at Swara. She moved closer to me and clung to my arm. She kept looking down. She didn’t look up even once.
(Sen) “I am fine. Fit for my age, I must say so. What brings you here, Gupta?”
(Dev) “On a job with a client. Let me introduce them. This is Ms. Swara Gadodia, a freelance finance consultant, who I am here on behalf of, and Mr. Sanskar Maheshwari, the Maheshwari group heir and his lawyer, Mr. Rahul Roy.” I greeted him. Swara glanced up. I could barely see her smile. Where is her professional smile she gives all?
(Sanky lost in thoughts because of the conversation) Why is her uncle calling her Ms.Gadodia? No matter, even if she is his a client, she is his niece. I don’t think anyone will address their relatives so formally in front of someone else.
(Sen) “I am happy to see the younger generation getting serious about life. Not like those days, where they ran around without care of the world and made mistakes, sometimes irreversible. Though lucky for me, the mistakes of my daughter could be taken care off. If I am correct, the ugly creature, you took in, should also be about the girl’s age. You are a tolerant man, Dev. You take care of children not wanted by their parents.
(dev)I am sure they must be causing you a lot of problems.”
(He again glanced at her) (Dev) “Unfortunately sir, those two children are wonderful. I can’t believe that no one could see how charming and lively they are. I must confess, they have made me feel blessed more than their parents will ever be.”
(Sen) “Really? But, I could see that both of them didn’t have my daughter’s qualities in them even as children. If they did have some qualities of my daughter’s, I would have at least thought about taking them in. Maybe, I should have given that boy a chance and taken him with me, but in the end, as that man’s child, even he would have also made my daughter’s life miserable.”
(Sanky’s POV) Shona was now completely behind me, trembling and clutching my suit tightly. It was like she was hiding from this man. Rahul was standing admiring both the men.
Who is that man to make her cower like this?
(Dev) “Real pities indeed, like you say. But thank god they have taken over neither their mother nor their father because they won’t be making the same mistakes of their parents and I am sure they will have more value for how they live and how it affects others unlike their parents.”
Guess Uncle hit his sore spot. Mr. Sen glared at uncle but he didn’t mind it. This conversation is going way off the level of understanding.
(Sen) “Well Gupta, I am glad to see you are doing well with those rats. What were their names again?”
(Dev) “Those rats, your grandchildren, are Priya and Ved. Good to see you, sir. I hope that one day, you will regret letting go of the wonderful children who you call as rats. Good day.”
Mr. Sen walked way without turning back.
(Dev) “Rahul, your work is over?”
(Rahul) “Yes, but Sanky wanted me to drop him at his office. Can we go, Sanky?”
Precap: Uncle likes Sanskar as the groom for Swara. But will he accept an arranged relation or will he be bent upon making Swara fall in love with him? Swasan discussion about past
