Swaranjali Mansion

All reached Swaranjali Mansion and got down from the car.

"Wow it's such beautiful Mansion" Ragini exclaimed by seeing Mansion with open mouth by seeing beauty of the mansion which was old model as it was built in 1970 with wood and white stone.

Sara got down from the car and looked at Mansion with longing eyes. Instantly her eyes became teary by seeing the Mansion but she blinked her eyes several times to get rid of her tears. Her home which she (Swara) and Arjun grew up together, their childhood in this house. It's held so much memories of them with their parents. Sara was standing by looking at Mansion being emotional. Sanskar saw her but couldn't read her face as what was she thinking?

"Sara" He softly called her on which Sara looked at him with blank eyes.

"Let's go" Sanskar said and both moved inside following Ragini and Karan.

"Uncle, your mansion is so much beautiful" Ragini said while looking around the Mansion.

"It built by our grandparents beta" Arjun said with smile.

All settled at living hall and ladies moved towards dining table leaving mens at living hall.

"Sara beta, how are you now? I heard you were not well, sorry I couldn't make it to come" Radha asked her with apologetic face while caressing her cheeks.

"No Aunty, I am absolutely fine, it's just weakness nothing else. Nothing will happen to me when I have so much caring family" Sara said with smile.

"I am really happy for you beta that you got happiness finally" Radha said with smile as Nandini's eyes got tears but she controlled. Radha pressed her hand in assurance which was noticed by Sara but kept quiet.

Later all had lunch with chit-chatting and sfter lunch all settled at living hall. All men were busy in talking about business and all.

"Aunty can I see the Mansion?" Sara asked Nandini with bit hesitantly on which Nandini smiled.

"Why not beta, come I will show you"  Nandini said and got up along Ragini and Radha also joined them.

Nandini showed all mansion and they all came near Swara's room which was locked. Nandini didn't open the room door but told them it was Arjun sister room.
Radha went downstairs as Yash called her.

At last Nandini brought them to her room. Sara was seeing the mansion with admiring eyes as she was seeing this after so many years.

Ragini was going to enter room but stopped as she got call from Laksha so she went to outside by excusing herself.

Sara was seeing room with small smile as Nandini was explaining.

Suddenly Sara's eyes caught one photo frame which was hanging on wall. Sara moved towards it and stood while staring at photo keenly for a minute then her eyes become wide seeing something in photo. It was Arjun and Nandini with two baby girls, they were sitting on both laps of Arjun and Nandini was standing beside them as Arjun was sitting on chair. Nandini turned towards Sara for not getting any reaction, got shocked seeing Sara staring at photo frame. She forgot to remove that as she even didn't had idea that they would come, fear developed in her that did she recognised or not? She was 100 cent sure that she wouldn't because Sara was small when she lost. But she composed herself and came near Sara with heavy steps.

"Sara beta" Nandini called her by coming near her.

Sara turned towards her and pointed towards photo frame.

"This photo and these babies?" Sara asked her as she got doubt but she wanted to confirm it so she asked.

"They are my both daughters, 25 years back we met with accident and in that accident we lost both daughters. We searched for them but didn't get their clue where they were" Nandini said while caressing photo frame lovingly as silent tears started flow from her eyes.

"But you should have searched for them little bit more or should have given police complaint right?" Sara asked still looking at Nandini with blank face.

Nandini turned towards her and wiped her tears.

"It's our bad luck, God wanted to punish us by snatching our daughters so he kept us in that bad situation that we couldn't have to do anything to get our daughters or look for them" Nandini said and gave a faint smile to Sara.

"Ok come, I think they must be waiting for us" Nandini said and moved towards door.

"Then why couldn't you thought on that time that your daughter must be waiting for you to come and embrace her when she was alone in all these years without parents and their love? craving for love.... Ha tell me why didn't you come?" Sara said with blank yet broken tone which made Nandini stood in her place with shock.

Nandini turned towards her slowly as tears were falling from her eyes already. She looked at Sara who was showing her neck chain which has SR spell. Before some time Sara got shocked by seeing the photo not because of baby but it's because, she saw same neck chain which she has also in both babies neck, from there she got to know that she was their lost  daughter only.

"You should have searched little bit more and without effort you left and went back to New York without a bit idea of how your daughter's will leave without them" Sara said with broken voice as tears were flowing from her eyes.

Nandini palmed her mouth in shock as well as in pain and nodded her head in no.

"Why?" Sara asked her while coming towards her.

"Why? Tell me why?" Sara asked her with choked voice as her throat became dry to ask anything. She gulped a huge lump which formed in her throat.

"Why?" Sara shook her while holding her shoulders to speak and started to cry vigorously then suddenly Nandini got startled with sudden hug as Sara hugged her tightly.

Nandini also hugged her back with teary eyes, a small smile came in her lips. She started caressed her back who was crying vigorously in her embrace. She was having satisfaction smile on her face after 25 years.

"We are sorry, please forgive us" Nandini said while breaking the hug.

Sara was just crying, Nandini cupped her face and kissed her forehead lovingly.

"We are sorry, please forgive us. I know no parents leave their children hands in any tough situation but we did grave mistake by leaving you both. Please forgive us and please don't give another punishment by going away from us. We already suffered a lot without you both...please" Nandini said with pleading tone while holding her both hands in her hand as tears were flowing from her eyes.

"I missed you so much Maa" Sara said and hugged her. Nandini got surprise as well happy by listening Maa word from her mouth for the first time from her mouth.

"What did you say?" Nandini asked her while breaking the hug again.

"Maa" Sara said while smiling through tears.

Nandini kissed her all over face in happiness as she couldn't know how to express her happiness at this  moment. She was feeling out of words and cloud nine by getting her one daughter back.

"Did you forgive me?" Nandini asked her as her palms on her face.

Sara just nodded her head with smile as tears were flowing from both of their eyes. Nandini hugged her tightly again and Sara also hugged her back. After sometime Nandini broke the hug and wiped Sara's tears.

"Let's go down, I want to tell Arjun" Nandini said and was going but Sara held her wrist on which Nandini looked at her confusingly.

"No Maa...not now.. I..." She was going to say further but stopped seeing Arjun at door step. Nandini also looked at him while turning back.

"Papa" It came as a mere whisper.

Arjun stretched his both arms for her without a second Sara ran into his arms and hugged him tightly crying vigorously. Arjun also hugged her tight as his eyes also filled with tears.
He was feeling ecstatic by seeing her.

"Please forgive your Papa" Arjun said while breaking the hug when he felt she calmed down.

Sara nodded her head in no with pressed lips as she was trying to control her tears. Arjun wiped her tears and kissed her forehead lovingly.

Sara hugged him again and he also hugged her back then he looked at Nandini who was smiling at them with tears while smiling. He stretched his arms for her and she came near them and hugged both them. Arjun held both of them in his arms.

After sometime trio broke the hug and wiped each others eyes.

"Sara" they heard Ragini voice.

"Maa, Papa...don't tell this matter to anyone for now" Sara requested them. Nandini and Arjun looked at each other and then nodded their head in understanding.

"Ok you go and wash your face" Arjun said and left outside after wiping his tears.

Sara moved inside washroom and washed her face and made herself presentable but her eyes were red, puffy because of excess cry. She came out of the room and went downstairs as Nandini and Arjun went downstairs ready.

"Where were you? I was calling you for long time " Ragini asked her while coming from another side of corridor.

"No it's just I stood in library by admiring it as it has so much books and all so didn't notice time" Sara lied to her while avoiding to look at her.

"Ok come now" Ragini said while side hugging her and both went downstairs.

Sara came downstairs while bending her head down. Sanskar looked at her but she was standing with Ragini and Nandini so he kept quite. After sometime all got ready to leave as it's going to be dark soon.

Malhotra's left to their home after bidding bye to Arjun and Nandini. Sanskar and Sara both were standing at the outside of the main door and Alex brought car and stopped infront of them.

"Uncle, we will take your leave now" Sanskar said and turned towards Sara who was looking at Nandini and Arjun.

"Ok beta" Arjun said and hugged him.

"Take care" Nandini said while caressing her cheek.

Sara hugged her "I will miss you both" Sara whispered slowly near ear of Nandini which was also heard by Arjun.
Arjun caressed her head with a smile. Sara's eyes filled with tears but she wiped quickly without notice of Sanskar but Sanskar was observing her every action from the time she has came down.

Arjun and Nandini smiled at her while assuring her through their eyes.

Sanskar and Sara left to Maheswari Mansion. Sara was sitting in car silently while looking out of window.

"Sara, are you ok?" Sanskar asked her by seeing her silent.

"Hmm?" Sara looked at him with confusion as she didn't hear what he said because she was busy in her own thoughts.

"Are you ok? You look quiet dull so asked you" Sanskar said with soft concern voice.

"Yes, I am fine...it's just little head ache" Sara lied to him while giving small smile as she couldn't tell truth.

"Can we go to doctor?" Sanskar asked her instantly by feeling worried as well as concern.

"No, I am fine..it's just head ache if I take some sleep then it will be fine" Sara said with assuring tone and again turned towards window. Sanskar was looking at her only because of her weird behaviour. He knew that she was hiding something and worried about something but he couldn't know how to ask her because till now they haven't that much close to share their problems and feelings as it's been week after their marriage.
So many thoughts and questions were running inside the Sara's head but there was no answer for that. If she wanted answer then she needed to talk with Arjun only.bThey reached home and Sara directly went to her room without waiting for Sanskar. Sanskar got more confused because of her behaviour. Sanskar was ascending stairs but stopped listening Sujata's voice.

"Sanskar, where is Sara?" Sujata asked him by seeing him alone while coming from the kitchen holding tea tray as she didn't see Sara going to her room.

"Mom, she has headache so she went to room" Sanskar said what Sara told him as he also didn't know reason then what could he has told her about Sara.

"Should we call doctor?" Sujata asked worriedly.

"No Mom, she denied as I asked her early. It will be fine if she gets some sleep" Sanskar said with assuring tone.

"Ok come, I will check her and give this tea which will reduce some pain" Sujata said and started to go upstairs.

"Mom, you give this to me, I will give this tea then tablet" Sanskar said while stopping her.

"Ok, make sure she gets some rest" Sujata told him in ordering tone while giving him tea tray and left to kitchen.

Sanskar signed and took some relief breathe and then went to his room.

He entered inside but didn't find Sara so he kept tray on table. Sara came out of the closet while wiping her face with towel and Sanskar saw her.

"Mom asked to have this tea and take tablet then it will be fine" Sanskar said while taking out pain killer tablet from side drawer.

Sara gulped listening him as she lied to him that she has headache.

"I will come after changing" Sanskar said and went inside the closet.

Sara signed in relief and she quickly drank tea and threw tablet in dustbin then She sat on bed by leaning on bed post before he comes out and was pretending like she was taking rest.

Sanskar came out from the closet after changing into casuals and looked at Sara who was closing her head while leaning back.

Sanskar looked at tea cup and then tablet. He came near her and called he softly.

"Sara" He called her on which she opened her eyes slowly.

"Sleep properly" He told her.

Sara lied on bed comfortably and closed her eyes tiredly as she just needed some rest to her eyes as her eyes were burning due to crying that's why she didn't look at Sanskar by giving straight eyes that he would find about her crying then she has to answer him so she didn't want to lie to him. In order avoid these unnecessary questions she closed her eyes. Sanskar looked at her serene face for a minute and then he covered her with a blanket and went outside after closing the door. He went to Jay's room who was doing something in his laptop. Jay looked at him by listening door opening sound and smiled at Sanskar who came near him and sat on couch which was beside bed.

"When did you come?" He asked still working in laptop.

"Just half an hour before" Sanskar said and leaned back on couch and closed his eyes in tiredness.

"If you are feeling tired why did you come here without getting rest in your room" Jay asked him calmly while looking at him with corner of his eyes as he was typing something in his laptop.

Sanskar opened his eyes instantly by listening him.

"I am not tired but just thinking over something and not getting anything" Sanskar said while giving blank look.

"About what?" Jay asked him with confused look and kept his laptop aside and sat straight on bed by facing towards Sanskar.

"Sara" Sanskar said which made Jay look at him with confusion.

"I am feeling that Arjun Uncle and Sara have some connection or they knew each other before" Sanskar expressed his doubt.

"Why you felt like that?" Jay asked him with raised eyes.

"From the time they have seen Sara or Sara, both were behaving weirdly. Sara has become silent from the time she came out from their mansion" Sanskar said and got up from the couch.

"You went to their mansion?" Jay asked him with amusement.

"Yes, they forced us to come so we went" Sanskar said in annoyed tone as if this is the question to ask.

"I don't know what happened when they went upstairs but after coming down she became silent and didn't talk with anyone or said anything. I asked her, she replied normally but she was worried or tension over something that I could tell about her after seeing her face" Sanskar finished his talk and turned towards Jay who was seeing him with bird eyes.

"Where is she now?" Jay asked him.

"She said that she has headache so sleeping" Sanskar said and took deep breathe to calm his mind.

"After getting fine, you talk to her and tried to know her problem it will make her easy to open up with you" Jay said while patting his shoulder.

"Hmm" Sanskar hummed only..

"You take rest, I have some work and I will come afterwards" Sanskar said and was going towards door.

"Sanskar" Jay called him. Sanskar stopped in his track and looked at him while turning back.

"I will join office from tomorrow" Jay said.

"Are you sure? I mean you are completely fine right?" Sanskar asked him..

"I am absolutely fine" Jay said while giving bright smile to him on which Sanskar smiled at him back and then left to his study.

Sanskar called Atul and in one ring Atul received the call.

"Hello Sir" Atul replied from on opposite side.

"I will text some name, search about them and their family and I need every information within two days, understand" Sanskar ordered in his professional tone.

"Yes sir" Atul replied in little bit fear tone.

Sanskar cut the call and started to work in his Mac.

Sengupta Mansion

Kavita was sitting at living room of Sengupta Mansion.

Chirag came inside along with Sahil.

Kavita saw him and got happy by seeing him after so many days.

"Hello my dear sister how are you?" Chirag asked while coming near her.

Kavita hugged him instantly in happiness "I am fine bro and how are you?" She asked him back.

"I am superb, how is the things going on here?" Chirag asked settling on sofa and Kavita also sat beside him. Sahil sat opposite to them.

"You see all good but except one thing" Kavita said as her becomes red in anger.

"What is that thing which made my sister get angry?" Chirag asked while laughing little.

"Don't ask me about that bro, I will deal with her in my way" Kavita said in anger filled voice.

"Ok, I know about my sister, nothing is impossible for her" He said while side hugging her on which Kavita smiled at him.

"Ok, you sit I will bring coffee for both of you" Kavita said and left to kitchen.

Chirag looked at Sahil in questionable eyes "What happened to her which  made her angry?" Chirag asked him.

"Nothing big yaar that Sanskar Maheswari scolded her infront of office staff for a mere girl so she got angry on her" Sahil said what he heard from Kavita as she told him already about office incident.

"Ohh for that she got this much angry" Chirag said while chuckling..

"It's not a small matter Bhai, that poor orphan bitch, don't know about anything and have no class and status., she made me got scold by that Sanskar. I wanted to lure him and get him in our trap that it will make easy for us to get his all contract and let down his company but he doesn't give look to anyone, that man supported her against me" Kavita said in anger and kept coffee mug on table with bang.

"Calm down Kavi, I came here na then don't take tension about her. I will see about her" Chirag said while calming her sister.

After having tea Both Sahil and Chirag went to study room where Sharat was working. They entered after knocking door.

"Hello Chirag, how are you man?" Sharat asked him by seeing him coming inside.

"I am fine Uncle" Chirag replied and both sat infront of him.

"How is your grandpa and your father?" Sharat asked him.

"They are fine uncle and they are thinking to visit Kolkata once" Chirag replied.

"That's cool, I talked with Rajat yesterday on call and he was also saying the same" Sharat said while laughing.

"Ok uncle, you told me that you have important work" Chirag asked him.

"Ok, I will tell you later, now you can rest or have your time with Sahil. You guys are meeting after long time" Sharat told them.

Both left the study after nodding their head with a smile and say bye to him.

"Get ready Mr. Sanskar Maheswari to face the consequences of messing with my business" Sharat smirked while laughing with evil intention.

Jan 27 2023
Maheswari Mansion

Sara woke up early and after getting ready in simple selwar went downstairs to do morning pooja arrangements.

At 8 am all came downstairs after getting ready in office suit and stood infront of house temple.

Ap did pooja and gave sweet to everyone.
Sara stood infront of God idol while folding her hands and closing her eyes.

"God please give us courage to solve all the problems in our life. I thought when I don't have anything in my life then Ragini came in my life. After this family and my love of life Sanskar for that if I say thousand thanks to you then it will be very less what you have given me. Now my parents which I never thought that in wildest dream, I would see them again in this birth. Please make Sanskar remember our past. I have to fight with them who betrayed and back stabbed us but not alone. I need him beside me to guide and support. Please make sure all will become fine everything in our life soon and give your blessings to us to fight against evil" Sara prayed in her mind and went towards dining table.

All were having breakfast but Sara was just sitting without eating being lost somewhere and this was noticed by everyone.

"Sara beta, what happened? Why are you not eating?" Sujata asked her which brought Sara back to present.

"Nothing Mom ...just" Sara gave a fake smile.

"Ok eat fast, don't you want to go office or not?" Sujata said and Sara nodded her head and started to eat.

All left to their respective work after having breakfast.

Karma Office

Sara entered Ragini cabin after knocking door.

"Oh Sara, come" Ragini said while giving charming smile to her on which Sara also smiled back.

Sara came inside and sat infront of Ragini. Ragini saw her and raised her eyebrow in questioning.
Sara looked at her and gave her nervous smile.

"Do you want say something?" Ragini asked her while stopping her work.

"Hmm...nothing just little stressed out so came here to relax myself" Sara said while giving tight smile. Ragini looked at her with narrow eyes.

"I know there is something that's why you are stressed out. You wanted to ask or tell but didn't, just blurt out" Ragini said in her serious voice.

Sara looked at her for sometime and then she took a deep breath and going to say something but stopped by door opening sound. Both turned towards door and found Karan was standing with file. He looked at both them.

"Oh you both are here" He came near them and gave a small smile to Sara in return Sara also smiled back at him.

"Ragini, this is SR Hospital file and this is financial account" He handed over two files to her.

"Summon SR project team at conference hall, Mr. Raichand is on the way" Karan informed and left the cabin.

"Papa is coming" Sara barely whispered as her face lit up by listening this news.

"I wanted to ask his number but he is only coming here to make it easy" Sara thought in her mind.

Ragini saw her smiling face and got confused because of her behaviour as sometime before she was sad now smiling.

"Sara, are you okay?" Ragini asked with unsure tone.

"Yeah, I am absolutely fine" Sara said with bright smile.

"Ok you carry on, I will see you later" Sara said and went out without giving Ragini chance to speak.

"This girl na..." Ragini signed seeing and then smiled herself.
