************

"Dad I'll be back at night. I need to rush to hospital"
Sanskaar said picking up the toast from table and running to find his wallet.

Whereas Swara was all dressed up waiting on couch for Sanskaar who was forgetting his things consecutively

"Swara beta make sure to come here often. I love talking with you"

Avantika said coming towards Swara's figure

Swara got up due to respect for her and bowed to take her blessings

"Mom pray for me that things get easy on me"
Swara said smiling warmly to her

"I will dear just don't forget to take care of yourself."
She carressed her hairs beautifully

"Mom you forget your own son being with her, isn't it?"
Said Sanskaar keeping hand on Avantika's shoulders

"Why is that bothering you though?"
Asked Swara in irritation

"Nothing just I get you are beautiful and it's hard to take one eyes from you but -"
He wasn't able to complete his sentence when a flustered Swara slaps his chest lightly to make him stop praising infront of his mother

"I can see that my son is totally whipped for this woman. Isn't it?"
Avantika smiled looking at both of them

"I'll be waiting in car. Bye Mom"
Swara rushed as soon as these words escaped her mouth

"You'll be here by night, right?"
Avantika asked as she shifted her gaze back on her son

"Yeah I'll be late too. Let's hope my friends find a clue of Kavya so we can be releived from one side"
He said wearing his blazer

"This thing aren't easy to deal with Son"
Avinash interrupted the conversation by jumping into it

"Id be glad if it was easy. Then I wouldn't had to disturb everyone for my help."
He said hanging his head low due to the burden of all leaving their own work and helping hi.

"You will also get a time to repay back Sanskaar. Do your best that time"
Avnatika pats his head saying this words.
He nodded at her cute suggestion

"Ofcourse but for now am getting extremely late for hospital. See you both soon"
Sanskaar grabbed his coat which was onchair and rushed outside looking at his watch

"He's so grown up Man now Avantu"
Avinash smiled looking at his child which grew up to be a matured Man

..............

"I hope Sidhaant get some positive response from the witness. If the witness turns to give evidence against your grand father then it would be like big achievement for us"
Sanskaar said keeping his eyes on the road while driving.
His one hand held the steering wheel where the other one held her hand tightly.

Swara unconsciously played with his fingers thinking something deeply

"Are you lost somewhere my baby"
He asked glancing at her

"It's morning why are you calling me with those names?"
Swara asked snapping out of her thoughts

"Oh so you do remember that I call you with these names during the night when we do-"
Blush smeared onhis face when he paused hearing her yell

"Shut up"
She yelled feeling blood rushing through her veins to her face

"Nevermind what were you thinking?"
He asked chuckling

"That still we are off the danger. But what will happen when we step on it? How are we gonna deal with it"
Swara loomed at Sanskaar as she said these lines to watch his exoressions.
His expressions do changed from funny to worry

"I guess when we step on danger we should be ready with our weapons. I mean if everything goes right with lawsuit then they would have it difficult to attack us"
Sanskaar reasoned patiently

"But that's afterwards"
She sounded tensed

"You're worrying unnecessarily. Everything is fine and secondly if anything happens you can lean on me. I won't let anything happen to you even if it's marrying Rohan too."
He said gripping her fingers more

"I don't want that. Instead take care of your own self. Because if any danger fall on you that is already the end for me. So try to be little reckless keeping me in your mind"
Swara's voice sounded fear.
Since the last night she's been scared to loose him.

"Swara I-"
He wasn't able to complete his sentence when a car suddenly infront of him in the middle of road.
He abruptly pulled the brakes which caused both of them hurt on their head.

Swara was gotten unconscious due the effect of it but Sanskaar was in bit of senses.
And the last thing he remembered before falling unconsious was someone hitting him with certain weapon

Vinod made cuts on their back of hands to wake them up
The pain caused Sanskaar and Swara to flicker their eyes open.

Sanskaar's head was hurting the most. He felt an odd pain on his hand when he saw it had a cut.

Swara clutched her injured forehead in one head feeling extreme pain there and secondly burning senation on a new cut at back of her hand

The pain felt nothing when her heart started pacing for the fear of Sanskaar. Her eyes searched for him in the crowd.
She was able to find her grandfather whom she was about to call for help but she studied his expressions. He wasn't sad that she was in pain rather angry on her.

Things got corrected in her brain that she was kidnapped but that thought didn't fear her as not finding Sanskaar infront of her eyes did.
After some seconds she heared his soothing voice when he called her name

"Swara"
He shouted from left side of hers

She restlessly looked at his direction and got little peace that he was there but in the same condition as she was

Sanskaar started being anxious watching Swara's bleeding forehead and her being tied.
He never wanted them to fall under danger together

"Oh yeah don't worry your Swara is here"
Vinod said rubbing Sanskaar's arms

"I sort of figured it out that it won't be fun kidnapping only one of you. So we decided to kidnap both of you. Isn't it fun?"
He said with light funny tone which made Sanskaar's anger rise

"Nanu (Swara's Grandfather) spare us. Why are you doing this to your own grand daughter"
Swara said in emotional tone thinking it would work on him
But it back fired her

Her grandfather walked slowly towards her before slapping her across her cheek.

Sanskaar's heart just clenched at the sight. He never in his worst nightmares thought to hit her but this old fucking man just did and he wasn't able to save her

"Don't Touch Her"
He yelled at the top of his lungs to just get beaten by Vinod's men

"Sanskaar"
Swara shouted as she the men throwed his chair on ground and were beating him with legs. He was groaning in pain and watching her if she's safe.

"That's enough put him back"
Vinod ordered them

"Why are you doing this to us? What sin we did?"
Swara shouted at the old Man who didn't bulge at her words

"You did only sins since you were born. First marry this man forcefully then divorcing him and now again loving him and not agreeing for the marriage. And even exposing your won grand father's business. From where you got all this courage. Your parents are always scared and defeated infront of me. Then how you became so opposite of your parent little women"
His voice filled with rage venom and fire for her

Swara wasn't at all ashamed of her deeds because all she ever did was wrong for only him but not for her.

Sanskaar's body was aching very badly due to the recent hits but still he laid his eyes over both men as if he was going to kill them once he is free.
His face was was all bruised up and it was hard for him to open his one eye

"And the amount of hatred I do to this boy and his family is uncountable. Years before I wanted to kill his father badly and now the same thing I want to do with his son too"
Prakash Sen said coming towards Sanskaar's Chair holding his hairs in his tight grip

"But isn't it funny your last resort is always killing because you cannot win over us without that."
Sanskaar spat at him through his words which made the older one to smirk

"I call that being powerful young Man. Do you even realise what power do I hold now? "
He said releasing his hairs

"I guess he won't"
Vinod chuckled watching SwaSan confused expressions

Swara eyes went towards the gate where she saw her father entering the place totally being clueless.
Shekhar was called by Prakash unknown of his deeds

Shekhar was horrified to see Swara and Sanskaar tied up to a chair and too see their condition was too bad

"Swara"
He whispered and ran towards her but only to be stopped by Prakash

"You moron you couldn't even keep an eye on your daughter. She was planning to back stab us with this Man and your rival Avinash"
Prakash's yelled at him being totally outraged with Shekhar's stupidity

Shekhar was suprised that Swara and Sanskaar were back together despite his all efforts of making them away but today he wasn't angry on her only worried to see her condition. No father would ever like their daughter to be held as hostage like that.

"Leave her I'll try persaude her"
Shekhar said enough to be audible to SwaSan

Swara looked towards Sanskaar to check if he's fine and the way he nods his head towards her warmly she could feel his love despite the distance between them

"It's too late Shekhar I trusted you enough. I called you to make you see how far your mistake has gone"
Prakash said and left again to Sanskaar

"So Young Man I was telling you about what's being powerful? So do you even know that Vinod tracked someone was following his daughter last night. She complained to him that she was being followed up so he tried using all his methods and unfortunately the car owner is Kaajal Singhaniya. My Swara's best friend. Isn't it a big coincidence"
Prakash blabbered infront of SwaSan which made them fear that they have been caught up

"Your own brother was about to gather a witness against me so he could give testimony. Isn't it? Do you even know it wouldn't have took me enough seconds to make your brother in that accident list rather than the witness. Oh yeah sadly that witness has been dead in road accident."
Prakash's voice held no shame in that. His victory was above over all the guilt of his

SwaSan felt goosebumps on their body hearing his words.
Sanskaar's heart started beating fast of hearing Sidhaant's name like that

"And not to forget your father is also gonna charge a lawsuit against and me and Mr. Sen, isn't it Sanskaar?"
Said Vinod crossing his hands standing infront of him

Shekhar was witnessing all these things queitly. He didn't knew Swara and Sanskaar have did this all things all alone and he wasn't even aware of any of it

"I can kill your father, your bother, your friends and everyone related to you Sanskaar. But it would be no fun, isn't it? How about I kill the most precious person to you infriction of seconds?"
Prakash said and eyed at one of his men.
His one man opened the ropes of Swara and brought her to Prakash forcefully.

Sanskaar's eyes widened. He couldn't beleive that man could stoop so low. Swara was his oen granddaughter but he wasn't even considering that

"Do you want me to kill this girl and end everything right here, Sanskaar?"
Prakash yelled locking Swara from her neck by his one hand and positioning his gun on her forehead
This picture gave literal chills in Sanskaar's body.

Shekhar stepped in between of Prakash having enough of him

"Stop it. She's my daughter what in the world are you trying to do?"
Shekhar shouted trying to get Swara out of his clutches but Prakash kicked Shekhar in his stomach making Swara gasped watching it

"I won't repeat Shekhar dont step in between neither I'll kill your first.
Sharmishta was also my daughter years back but when my reputation is at stake I can go to any extent you better know that. Swara tried spoiling my image and this is what she will get in return"
Prakash said helding the gun more close to which Swara's eyes looked at only Sanskaar fear of leaving of him behind.
She was in tears watching him sit helpless and tears of fear rolled from his eyes too

Shekhar couldn't beleive the man who trusted and gave him every power just made him powerless in a second. He wanted to kill himself watching Swara state right now because he did the same thing to the poor souls Sharmishta and Avinash before.
Karma is real and it will find you and hit you even you are best at defending.

"I beg you to leave her. I'll do whatever you say but for sake of goodness please keep the gun away from her please."
Sanskaar pleaded Prakash with tears rolling down his eyes. He accepted his defeat instantly not wanting to let any harm affect Swara anymore.

"Now we are talking"
Prakash said smiling over his win towards him. He kept his gun back on table but still held Swara's wrist tightly

"So Vinod can we negotiate with him?"
He asked Vinod who was now all settled on a chair.

"I don't want to but for my daughter I think we can try for negotiating"
He said spitting only venom

"Let's try then. Tell your family and everyone to back off everything they are working. Convince your father specially to not try any stunt against us because next time I won't negotiate. My bullet's first target will be his wife that is your mother. Remind him of how powerful I am"
Sanskaar just fisted his hands hearing him warning his parents like that. But that moment he was powerless

"Second marry my daughter tomorrow at the same place where Swara will marry Rohan. Take responsibilities as father of Kavya's child and after the marraige is done fly away to London and get settled there forgetting Swara and her existence"
Vinod said this time standing beside Prakash

Swara cracked a laugh being emotional
"You are same monster as you were years ago Mr. Prakash Sen. You threatened my Mom too like this, isn't it? Get marry to dad and forget Avinash Uncle. You get so much peace destroying lives isn't it?"
She said having no emotions because she didn't wanted seperation from Sanskaar like the way Avinash and Sharmishta had. Even though Avinash found his soulmate in Avantika and Sharmishta compromised with Shekhar it was far from her concept she would let Sanskaar marry that bitchy Kavya who having someone else baby whereas she couldn't let herself be of someone. She never envied Rohan but she never adored him that much that he could claim her as his wife

Shekhar felt blood rushed through his veins to see his daughter back answering him. He knew how dangerous that man is

"Swara keep it quiet. Let me handle it"
Shekhar heard Sanskaar said these lines to Swara

"Yes My dear Swara. And I would like to remind you I held one more life in my hand which you love undyingly. "
He said grabbing her hairs in his fist making her wince and pointed his gun with other hand to Sanskaar targetting him
Sanskaar started moving from the chair so it could help him get out the ropes and save her but it wasn't easy

Swara was wincing in his arms to get her out of his clutches but his grip grew stronger

"Don't raise your voice if you want to stay alive and see that man alive. One more word against me and I won't think twice to end his game now"
Said Prakash
The pain was literal unbearable for Swara. Tears fell from her eyes as her head was hurting already due the bleeding and secondly because if his grip.
But her heart had another pain. She couldn't let his words went by. She treasured Sanskaar like anything and if this thing was about to happen it should be her not him.

"Please don't hurt her leave her. I'll do as you say. I'll back off everything. I'll even marry kavya and leave Swara forever. But please don't hurt her. Please"
Sanskaar begged as tears overflowed from his eyes. The pain was extremely hurting to him. He wanted to fight till the end for her just to have her beside him but not at the cost of her being hurted this way. He could let a thousands of bullets hit him just to loosen the grip of his over her hairs. He knew this choice would never let him be at peace but he could never trade her for his victory!
In the end this was his choice

Prakash smiled victoriously throwing Swara towards Shekhar.
Shekhar instantly held Swara by her arms and made her standing up

"Good choice Young man. See you tomorrow at the venue which will be texted you by tonight."
Said Prakash signalling everyone to leave

"And you Shekhar make sure everything is ready for Marraige. You are useless in everything just do the last work properly"
Prakash said and went by him leaving Shekhar, Swara and Sanskaar there.

Shekhar made Swara sat on chair and went towards Sanskaar to untie his ropes.

He quickly opened his ropes and they both rushed towards Swara who was about to fall unconscious having a new bleeding drip from her nose.

Sanskaar instantly caught her in his arms when she was about to fall

"She needs to get hospital asap."
He kept his sentence short due the fear of her being unconsiuess in his arms

"Let's carry her to my car. You sure you can do it?"
Shekhar asked him as Sanskaar was already worn out

He stood up holding her tightly in his arms and nodded
They both rushed towards his car and went to hospital.

In hospital,

Sanskaar was still carrying unconscious Swara in his arms.
He went to receptionist

The receptionist gasped watching both the doctors coming in worst condition

"Can you please tell me If Dr. Arjun is available right at the moment. Tell him it's emergency by Dr. Sanskaar"
Sanskaar said panting. He was worn out by the pain of hits and having her in his arms too

Shekhar watched him quietly for the first time he didn't interrupted in anything

She called Arjun instantly and for their goodness he was available and called them in emergency ward
Sanskaar lied Swara on stretcher and with the help of nurses they took her to emergency ward.

Arjun and Maahi were both together discussing further strategies when they heard Sanskaar was coming for some sort of emergency.
But to their surprise the emergency was of them

"Arjun check her asap. She got hit on her head. She had some bleeding from nose too before falling unconsious"
He wasn't able to stand properly due to the sudden pain from his side of head where he was hit from rod.
Shekhar held him properly as he was about to faint

"Hey Sanskaar, Hey shit"
Arjun cursed watching his friend passed out

"Maahi you take Sanskaar and check on him I'll do on Swara allright"
Maahi nodded to his order. Her hands were trembling to see them at their worst state but it was time for being professional

Shekhar sat down on a chair when both of them were taken to different wards.
He palmed his face in his both hands as he was unable to do anything for his daughter

He called Sharmishta in hospital as he cannot deal with this alone anymore

*

"Swara-Aaahh"
Sanskaar woke up yelling her name but a getting a sting of pain in his head instantly due to the sudden effect

"Sanskaar hey are you okay? Can your hear me?"
Arjun was the first one to approach

Sanskaar slowly opened his eyes to be welcomed in a new environment.
He realised he was in hospital ward. A special ward to be precise. He looked at his worried parents look and there were Maahi and Sidhaant too in there

"Oh My Sanskaar"
His mother took him in a sudden hug crying her heart out watching him in this condition.
Sanskaar had a bandage on his forhead with bandages on his face too to cover up his brusies.
His legs pained little which he assumed will subsided within night

But his concern wasn't this

"How's Swara Arjun? Is she awake?"
He glanced a look at Arjun while Avantika broke the hug and looked at Arjun

"She's fine. She got no internal injuries in her head Thankfully. She got unconscious due to stress that's why she got bleeding too. She would be awake in some time. But I am corncerned for you Sanskaar. Your one leg was fractured and the hit on your head was really close to done damages"
Avinash and Avantika gasped in worry for his son.

"Sanskaar tell us why Swara and you got into such kind of situation"
Avinash spoke finally going to Sanskaar

Sanskaar wanted the day would be a nightmare for him but it was a reality.
And a choice he made which he would regret unfortunately

"I lost to them dad"
Sanskaar said in a weak emotional voice hugging his father. Feeling his pain how he would have felt loosing to the same person years before.

He narrated everything to them

The other side,
Swara flickered her eyes open slowly and steadily adjusting to Room's light

She found Sharmishta, Shekhar and Kaajal beeside her.
Feeling empty not finding him there

Sharmishta engulfed her in a warm hug watching her daughter's state just like her.
Never in her worst nightmares she thought her father would do the same thing as he did to her

"I am fine maa please don't cry"
Swara said as she heard her sobs

"I am sorry for being bad mother my child. I cannot even protect you from them I am sorry"
She said in between her sobs hugging her as tightly as she can

Swara didn't wanted to fall weak but to her dismay she did fall weak. She clutched her mother's saree in her fist before ending into sobs

"I don't wanna loose him Maa. I don't wanna loose him again. I seriously love him."
Swara hiccuped in between her cries
Sharmishta carressed her hairs to let her pain out. She could feel this feeling of defeat and loss. She compromised with her life at that moment but her heart was breaking to let Swara do the same.

Shekhar's heart clenched seeing his daughter broke like this.
He always wanted this that Swara be seperated from Sanskaar but now when it's happening he wasn't at all peace. He now for the first time wanted Swara's happiness over his ego which was in Sanskaar.
But wasn't it too late for him for this realisation as he wasn't brave enough to fight against Prakash Sen.

Kaajal had tears in her eyes watching Swara crying like this.
She heard everything from Shekhar what happened to Swara and Sanskaar when he was narrating to Sharmishta.

Sanskaar's side,

"Drop all the cases which you are about to file Dad"
Sanskaar said looking at his dad first
Then glancing to evrrybody
"And everyone stop at whatever you are doing. Let's stop this play and end everything tomorrow by the fucking marraige. I know Marrying kavya is my worst desicion but it would keep Swara safe and everybody safe"
Sanskaar said looking down. The feeling of he marrying her some body else than Swara was as breaking as it was!

"Sanskaar are you nuts? Why are you loosing to them? We just need more information. And when we will find they are finished"
Arjun said sitting beside him

"They are much more than what we
expected Arjun. They hold more power and-"
Sanskaar wasn't able to finish when he was cut off by Avinash

"So you are just gonna loose? Sanskaar I lost to them because I was alone. You have meYou know how powerful lawyer I am. I also have connections. Will try other ways too. I can send you and Swara away far from here for sometime and in the mean time I could alone destroy them. You don't have to worry of anything when you have me Son"
Avinash reassured him "Trust your Dad"

"I do trust you dad but I cannot leave you all behind. They knew all our plans. He even threatened me dragging Mom into this. Please Dad for my sake drop this fight and end it. Name it as defeat but I am scared to loose my close ones. Please"
He begged his dad with all his might.
His mother came to hug him and give him the love which he yearned that moment

Avinash was having a hard time among all. Not for the second time he wanted to loose

"You won't do anything Dad neither you won't see me alive tomorrow. I swear."
Sanskaaar finally took out his card which made Avinash slap him not caring of his wounds and Avantika shout his name

"Sanskaar what in the world you are saying?"
Avantika shouted at him

"You are just acting to be all brave but You would regret loosing her! Kavya is not like your mother who can be a second chance in your story. Swara is the only woman who is worth your fighting"
Avinash said these lines finally which Sanskaar was craving to hear. That Swara is made for him"

"It's for her sake dad what I am doing. I won't be happy either making her fall in danger. I am sure you would do the same if Mom is in danger"
Sanskaar looked into his eyes not ashamed of his undying love for Swara

"You would feel like to kill yourself after watching her marry some other man. Go ahead I am not gonna witness your suicide tomorrow"
Avinash spat at him angrily being defeated by his own son threat and dejected as he wasn't able to do anything now also

"Dad listen to bhai atleast "
Sidhaant was the only one who stood with Sanskaar's desicion. He knew his brother was right at his own place somewhere

Avinash left angrily from there followed by Avantika

"Please take care of him Sidhaant. I'll be with your dad"
Avantika said these words before going out from there.

At Swara's side,

Sharmishta and Shekhar took their leave giving Swara time to relax for sometime.

Kaajal carressed Swara's head as she slept due to sediatives

Maahi and Arjun came to check on her

"She didn't wake yet?"
Whispered Arjun to Kaajal as the room was total silent

"She did but again got unconsiuess."
Kaajal said in low voice

Arjun checked her pulse and temperature.

"Her pulse is normal. For now sleeping is best for her. She needs to be away from stress"
Arjun said sitting beside Kaajal

"But I am afraid for tomorrow Arjun. She isn't brave enough to face the consequences."
Kaajal whispered sadly holding Swara's hands. Feeling pain for her
Kaajal was the only friend Swara had since beginning. She have seen her both good and worsr and now watching Swara going through the rough patch of her life made her teared up a little.

"We can't even do anything for them."
Maahi spoke closing her eyes.
She was always the person who was outspoken among the group. And anger was at peak for her as she failed to gain Kavya's truth out

"I think our friends needs our support the most this moment. There's nothing we can do but we can stand with them till the end, Right?"
Arjun pulled Kaajal in a side hug saying the lines.

"Does Rohan knows about this?"
Maahi asked Arjun keeping her hands in her white coat pocket

"He's assisting a surgery since hours. He might be getting news later"
Arjun said looking at his watch for time

Outside,

"Sharmishta I cannot let history repeat to our daughter. I cannot let my daughter bearing the weight of my sins. I won't be able to forgive myself if I won't do anything now"
Said Shekhar face palming himdelf restraining himself to tear up.

"The fight has gone worst Shekhar. You won't be able to do anything for Swara now. Papa has held our strings, we are just puppets of him"
Sharmishta didn't wanted to agree but this was the fact which she lived by a decade

"But there is one who isn't Prakash Sen's puppet. He just needs to enhance his powers more to stand up against him"
Shekhar said having a little smile on his face

"Who are you referring to Shekhar?
Asked Sharmishta confused

"It's My Time To Finally Apologise For My Mistake Done Years Before. He Can Only Help Me"
Shekhar smile lightly remembering Avinash in his mind

"He won't even see our faces"
Sharmishta reminded him of how much he hates them

"But that won't make me try my last option"
Shekhar said getting up making his way to Arjun asking if Avinash is there or left.

Sanskaar got up from his bed removing all the equipment attached to him

"Where are you going Bhai?"
Sidhaant asked getting up from the couch

"To meet Swara for last time"
Sanskaar said the words to remind him the fact that he won't be able to meet Swara as his anymore💔

"Bhai Why are you saying like that. It's sounding you have already lost without even fighting real"
Sidhaant said coming close to him

"I wish I could've done that."
Sanskaar smiled and walked slowly but stopped and turned back to Sidhaant

"Go home and take Maahi with you. Take rest for tomorrow."
He said getting out of the ward and walking slowly

He walked a few steps when he was stopped by a shadow.
He realised the shadow and balled his hands into fist

"Sanskaar are you fine? I heard you were hurt!"
Kavya said sugar coating her words

"Get off my way. I am in no mood to talk"
He said sternly making his way but was stopped again by her

"I heard we are going to marry tomorrow morning by Dad."
She asked making him gritted his teeth in anger

"You would be so happy to hear it, won't you?"
He asked keeping his hands in his jeans pocket

"I am. But I am sad too that you aren't well yet and they are rushing-"
He cuts her off by saying "stop saying this fucking nonsense Kavya. I and you better know how much far you've come in your obbsession of me"

Rage and despise were filled in his words. If not kavya then they won't be having a fight here with Vinod Malhotra

"You know better how much I love you. You call it obsession call it I call it Love. I have loved since the day I saw you But I never came in your list even if you divorced Swara. Can't you just see I am trying my everything to claim you as mine?"
She said grabbing her purse tightly with painful eyes

"When you love someone you need to let go of them when you see that they love someone else. What you did wasn't love but a toxic and psycho stuff which I will never be a part of."
He said all the bad things which can come in his mind

Kavya was loosing her temper at his words. He was hitting right spots to hurt her

"I am carrying your baby isn't it sign of our love"
She said bringing out her baby card

"It's just a sign of your false and cunning nature. You know it better it isn't my child. Dont be in a delusional world where I'll gladly acceot that mistake which isn't  mine.
And let me tell you Kavya even if I end up marrying you tomorrow. I'll make sure you regret Marrying me. I will never love you till the day I die. Because even if we would legally be one, My heart and soul belongs to Swara! You will just get my surname no more than that as I have given already everything to Swara even my Love."
He said with intense look which he never had before.

He stepped side and walked further leaving her behind.
Kavya was beleived to have a stone heart but she was a human being afterall who was hurt by his words

Meanwhile,
Rohan just came into reality by hearing his father on call who gave him order to be ready for tomorrow's marraige. He wasn't even allowed to speak related to it opposition was on other level.

He didn't knew anything about Swara that moment until Maahi came to him

"Yes, Dr. Maahi?"
He asked as soon as he turned to see her calling him

"Swara always keep taking your side, I wonder if you're actually worth for that"
Maahi said crossing her hands

"I guess a try won't be bad"
Rohan smiled genuinely sipping his coffee

"Do you even know Swara is admitted to hospital as she was kidnapped early at day"
She said making his heart thump and his smile to fade away instantly

"Is she fine now? Any injuries? Where's she?"
His expressions changed in matter of seconds

" she is fine. But do you wanna know who did that to her"
She said dropping the quiz for him which he was getting hard to solve

"Your own father"
Maahi chirped making him go in disbelief. He wont beleive that as he never knew his father can do such things.
For him his father was hardworking Business Man. Why would he kidnap Swara

"You're lying"
He said keeping the coffee aside and sitting on chair adjusting the facts.

"I would be glad to say if this could be lie but it is true or harsh fact"
She sat beside him narrating him his father's hidden things. From his father's illegal business to Prakash Sen involvement and SwaSan family past story too in the middle

Maahi used her last card on Rohan to see if letting him know could make a difference

"Why is this all so messed up?"
Rohan clutched his head in his head gathering all her words. He couldn't beleive any word against his father or sister but he can't hide the pain Swara was feeling today.

"I know you were kept in dark. I didn't intend on telling you anyways but I thought you should know her part of story and sacrifice too."
Maahi sighed telling him everything

He got up instantly removing his doctor coat

"Going somewhere?"
She asked him

"I need to search for Kavya first. She might can solve my puzzle better"
He said rushing towards his sister.

Rohan checked the hospital but she already left for home.

He drove to his home and went to Kavya's room directly

He saw her drinking alcohol to which he instantly went and throwed the bottle smashing it ground

"Are you fucking in your senses? You are pregnant and here you are drinking? Do you know it's bad for your child"
He said jerking her shoulders

"I don't care about anything bhai just leave me alone"
She said drowsily

"Do you not care of the child Kavya. Sanskaar wont feel good if you treat his baby that way"
He said deliberately telling the last line to her and to his good sense she actually reacted.

She throwed the glass which was in her hand on floor

"Daaamnnn, It's not Sanskaar's baby"
She finally said those words being half unconscious and Rohan closed his eyes remembering Maahi's words

At Avinash's home,

Since the time he got home he was busy collecting evidences
He called many people to gain some confidential proofs against Prakash Sen business but got no positive sign.

Avantika saw messed up Avinash sitting on floor gathering papers and keeping them in order

"Avinash take a rest. You must be tired"
She said sitting beside him

"That idiot has gone mad but I am not. I won't let him suffer like me Avantu."
He said determined focusing on his work

Not minutes later he threw all the papers on floor catching his hairs tightly

"Avinash"
She caught his shoulders in worry

"How am I going to fight with him tomorrow when I have nothing at my side? I don't wanna loose to him again Avantika I don't wanna loose again to those bastards"
He broke down in her arms being vulnerable

Avantika cried with him hugging him tightly. She had already witnessed broken Avinash before and now watching again like that made her heart clenched

A door bell disturbed their sad moment.

"I'll open"
Avinash said getting up fixing his shirt.

As soon as he opened the door he saw some old yet familair faces!
The faces which he never wanted to see again.

"It's been a long time Avinash Maheshwari"
Shekhar said with guilt written on his face.

Finally Shekhar had to knock on Avinash's door, The friend which he took as his enemy and destroyed his life years before now this enemy's door was the only way to save his daughter's life!

Avinash looked at him with hatred. The same man whom he trusted more than himself at some point broke him like anything and now came again in life where he was already fighting a battle

"If you don't want any show just get lost"
Avinash said gritting his teeth remembering nothing but the betrayal which suddenly flashed in his mind

Avantika came by his side and looked at the couple. She recognised Sharmishta in seconds

Sharmishta stood there with accelarting heartbeat. Her heart was throbbing in rib cage seeing her ex again. He haven't changed alot just some age changes. She thought Sanskaar look almost like his dad.
Her eyes were filled with tears watching him remembering everything.

She realised she needs to speak now for Swara

"Please listen us"
Her voice came out as a mere whisper

Avinash shot his eyes on her and all their beautiful moments came in his mind. In the end how she married Shekhar too came in his mind.

"Why? What you'll need from me now"
He spoke expretionsless

"Our Children freedom. I have what you want against Prakash Sen. I'll give you all the evidences against him. Help me to gain my Swara back"
Shekhar said almost begging at the end of the sentence

"I feel like whatever I did that time came infront of my daughter as my deeds. She is going to be Prakash Sen puppet as Sharmishta was in past. He is going to destroy her life Avinash and as a father I am ashamed of myself that now when it's my daughter I can feel the pain of her but I ignored it in past.
I know my apologies wont even matter to you but-"
He kneeled down on his knees making Avinash widened his eyes in shock

Sharmishta kept her hand on moith seeing her husband kneeling infront of someone

"Forgive Me. Forgive me for betraying you as a friend. Forgive me for loving Sharmishta when you loved her. Forgive me to not accept your son when he married my daughter. Forgive me for destroying your life. Forgive me for being so late in asking forgiveness."
Shekhar said joining his hands and crying his heart out taking all his pain and guilt which he kept hidden in his heart.

"Shekhar"
Sharmishta gasped seeing him cry. She kneeled beside him helding him by shoulder supporting him.

She knew he was at fault but she had forgiven him and accepted her husband long back.

"Forgive us"
Sharmishta said sitting beside Shekhar asking for that forgiveness which she couldn't in these years.
The only mistake she did was to give hope to Avinash and let it disaster.

Avinash let his tears which were in his eyes for long minute.
The pain he felt after hearing his words. He could finally let his heart peace which was burning since ages. The agony, rage was now over.

He could sense his friend speaking to him not the betrayal enemy anymore!

Avantika made them stand

"Please have strength"
She muttered holding Sharmishta.

"Let's win this fight together Avi for our kids"
Shekhar said giving him his lost hope.

******************

Later at night,

Sanskaar was standing outside Swara's ward gathering courage to face her.
He requested Arjun to let him stay by Swara's side for the night without any interruption.
And now when he got everything ready he wasn't ready to face her.

After pacing for other minutes he clicked the doorknob entering her ward.

Swara was sitting on bed having mobile in her hand.
She jerked herself as she sensed someone entering it but when she saw him she was releived

"I was thinking to give you a call now. What a coincidence you came"
She said in polite tone ignoring her sad emotions

"I just woke up and ran to you"
He lied and she definitely knew he was lying.

She made her way to his standing figure and touched his forhead

"This must have pained alot"
She said carressing the bandage remembering Kaajal's words that Sanskaar's injury was close to intense one

"Not more than seeing you unconscious in my arms. Why do you always make me worry like this?"
He said holding her face with his right bandaged hand. Feeling her skin on his thumb

"You should be more careful now from tomorrow-"
He couldn't his sentence complete when she held his hand in hers

"Please"
She tried not breaking infront of him but his sentence made it bad for her

"I don't wanna hear anything about that"
And with that tears started coming out from her eyes which she was trying her best not to

Sanskaar engulfed her in his arms tightly tearing up with her.

"Ssshhh It's okay"
He whispered this words inher ears kissing neck stroking her hairs

She clutched his shirt and cried badly in his arms

"Sanskaarrr"
She cried her heart out because no one would understand her pain more than him.
After a long journey when they were finally back this thing happened which was going to make them forever apart

Sanskaar controlled himself not to break with her because if he will cry who will console her.
His tears fall from his eye seeing her break like this but he had nothing to do. He made the choice to let her live safely sepreated from him

"You promised you will be till the end. You promised me"
She yelled sobbing into his chest. She was out of her control now

"Swaraa please you will ruin your health. Stop shouting love you haven't healed properly"
He said breaking the hug taking her face in his palms

"You promised me you won't let me go . I won't marry Rohan because am yours"
She hiccupped in her sobs looking in his eyes tearfully

Sanskaar couldn't held himself anymore.

"Swaraaa!"
He whisper yelled bursting into sobs falling on his knees clutching her wrist

She kneeled and cried with him together

"Please stop it love please. It's more painful for me"
He said hugging her fragile body sobbing in her shoulders.

Swara stopped crying a little and carressed his back soothingly
They didn't knew till how many hours they held eachother like that

After minutes,
Swara found herself on bed lying beside him.
They both were facing eachother with their red puffy eyes.

Sanskaar's hand stayed on her cheeks carressing her skin lightly.
Whereas Swara held his shirt in her clutches afraid if she loosen her hold he'll run away.

"Don't hurt yourself Swara. You need to live for me. Don't ever think of giving up in your life"
He said touching her legs softly with his leg

"I don't know how to live without you Sanskaar. You know better than anyone how those 5 years passed for us. Even if we seperated on our own we weren't able to find our peace with anything because we loved eachother at whatever corner we were! How can I start living that life again when it hurted me that bad"
She questioned him gritting her teeth remembering the cold winter nights when she was alone without his warmth.

"We don't have any option, do we?"
He said hurting himself with his own words

"I can do whatever I can to see you living."
He said again kissing the top of her forehead clearing the distances made by them

She was quiet in his arms. She felt her muscle relax when he caught her strongly. She could feel her anxious heart be at little peace

"You are a part of me Swara. You were and always will. No Rohan could make you seperate from me just by doing some marraige rituals. We are bound by souls not by any worldy things. We will be together someday some other time"
He told her rubbing her head softly.
Her grip on his shirt grew tighter

They both stared into eachother's eyes, They shared their pain together through that eyelock.
Sanskaar pulled her more closer taking her lips in his gripping her neck in his grip.
Swara moved her lips with his holding him more tightly.

They knew somewhere this was their last moment. No one from both wanted to depart from that kiss.
They kissed eachother like there was no tomorrow. As they kissed eachother deeply tears fell from both of their eyes.

Minutes later when they departed Sanskaar patted her back to make her feel calm and forget about anything that time

She was quiet for that moment and the medicines she took time before were reacting in making her drift slowly in sleep

Sanskaar hummed a music in her ears whispering softly for a better sleep for her.
How he wishes if this could happen every night till he grows old with her.
He wanted this painful night to end for her. She beared alot now he can't see her in any pain for long

He saw her sleeping peacefully in his arms some time after.
"How will I be able to live without you, Princess"
He whispered to himself with tears falling endlessly as he held her more tightly fearing to loose as the morning will strike.

...............

As sun rays hit Swara's face she woke feeling her other side empty.
She opened her eyes in a second to see He wasn't there.

"They say the morning brings new hope and happiness in your life but not finding him by my side this morning I felt I lost him forever in this journey 💔"

She cried endlessly hugging herself feeling the warmth she felt last night of him!
