"You are film actress Swara Gadodia right?" Arya asked her while coming back into sense. Swara's face colour drained and got panic as well as fear by listening him as she didn't expected this much soon that she would be exposed like this because she herself wanted to tell Sanskar but now everything got messed up before it starts. She looked at Sanskar who was looking at her blankly with no emotions, no angriness, not even a hate. Swara got more fear by seeing him like this for the first time as she always saw chirpy, flirty and talkative Sanskar but his silence was making her more scare.

Swara looked at Arya with nervous face even Arya was looking at them. He got to know that by their facial expression that he had done big blunder.

"Sanskar I...." Swara was saying but Sanskar interrupted her.

"Come with me" Sanskar said while dragging her out of the house.

He took her to the flat terrace.
Sanskar left her hand and stood while facing her and  then folded his both arms over his chest and looked at her for answer.

Swara looked upon by lifting her head with nervous face as well as fear which was evident on her face by gazing his look that she might loose him.

"Sanskar I am sorry. I know you are mad at me now but...." Swara looked at him who was looking at her with sharp gaze to explain completely.

"I am neither angry on you for not telling nor going to get angry by listening your answer so no need to fear or nervous which was clearly showing on your face. No need to feel scare and I know there is some reason that's why you hide it from me. I just need answer for one question" Sanskar said on which Swara looked at him with shock as well surprise, happy as her eyes filled with tears that he wasn't angry on her or would not be angry on her. She turned her face little and blinked her eyes to control her tears. All the while Sanskar was just observing her actions. Swara composed herself quickly and turned towards Sanskar and looked at him.

"There was nothing big reason but I was bit scared" Swara said with low voice while directly staring at his eyes.

"Why?" Sanskar asked while raising his one eyebrow.

Swara felt more nervous and started  fidget her fingers of hand in nervous that how to tell him.

"Because I thought you will leave me if I tell who I am" Swara said after gaining little courage. She was not a girl who feared from anyone but infront him, her tongue tied to say anything.

"Why you thought like that?" Sanskar asked confusingly with narrowing his eyebrow.

Swara looked here and there for not getting how to say to him then she closed her eyes and took deep breath and then opened..

"Like you, I also wanted to live simple life, enjoy my life with freedom with no tension, no worries and pressure, enjoying my childhood with parents but I lost my parents when I was young then my brother became my world. We both used to live in Kolkata. One day my paternal uncle came and took us here( Mumbai) so we started to live here. We started to go to school and my brother started to go to college here only and also he used to handle our company with the help of my father's friend who was legal advisor of our company. Like this three years passed. From childhood I dreamt to become actress. Like my wish my brother joined me in art school. First I got selected to act in short movies. Then movie offers came to me. I accepted and did my best. It got super hit and I became super star in one night. Then I got so many films and I became busy in shoot. My brother went to New York to study MBA. There he met Nandini Bhabhi. After completing his MBA he came back India with Bhabhi and got married. I was happy by getting both of them. We decided to live in different home but before that Bhai and Bhabhi had to leave for New York for two years because of Bhabhi's specialist in medicine and Bhai got one and half year project there. My life became like without happiness because first I thought I will get motherly love and father figure care and siblings love but my hopes broke when I got to know that they are just behind my father's and my money. I didn't tell this Bhai because I don't want him to get hurt by knowing their intention and I can't leave that place as I promised Bhai that I will stay in Shekhar Uncle mansion till he return because he was worried to leave me alone. I got involved in my shooting so that I could avoid them as much as want. I became lonely here and I wanted to be like you but it's not possible in this position which I am today so wherever I go people will recognise me and started to give me a special treatment if it's true or fake that's what I don't wanted least. I wanted to make friends which are truly care for me, and l too also wanted do shoppings, and go on trip, night ride on bike, eat ice cream before going bed that too at chill night at outside road side...I have so many wishes to do but I can't do or say I never had a time to anything. Daily I  will come out of the home by hiding myself from everyone to get some time to enjoy while covering face so that no one could see me, if by chance they see me anywhere.... That's when I came out like other day and saw you at bus stop that you were helping poor children, I felt some kind attraction towards you by seeing your generosity and humanity which we hardly find in humans now days. I wanted to make friendship with you so approached you by myself. I thought you you will recognise me at that moment by seeing me but you didn't so I got happy somewhere that I can be a friend with you because I didn't wanted to do friendship with me because of profession or get special treatment. I know you would have hesitated to do friendship with me at first place because you might have think that I am doing friendship with you for my time pass or to use you for my personal work and also people to think that you are also behind me for fame, name or money which I never wanted you feel like that. I know it's sounds ridiculous to you but it's true. I know if I told you about my identity back then neither you would have accepted my friendship nor I would have get a friend like you right?" Swara asked him on which Sanskar got shock by listening her.

Yes, it's obvious that he wouldn't have approached her if he knew her as a actress because he was middle class boy and he couldn't have dreamt to get a girl like Swara and put himself in people's mouth to roam everywhere or stakes her career. If by chance he came to know at first meeting then he would have never thought or tried to meet or talk with her again and kept his distance from rich people. Sanskar kept silent by hearing her, not getting how to reply her.

"No right, I got to know lot of things about you in just these one month Sanskar. You are not other boys who would comes behind their profit that's why I didn't disclose my identity. You are such genuine human being whom I got. I know it's a short span of time that we became this much close but I don't regret it being friend of you who cares about me and who makes me happy even if it's small or big, it doesn't matter to me but the happiness in that small thing is matter to me. In just two days in Bangalore you made me feel heaven which I never felt before so I became too greedy to let you go from me. You might be wondering why I don't have any friends here because in this industry most of them come for their profit, name or fame because I am actress or my money. But I just wanted a true friend who cares for me like family and not judge me about my profession. I had a little fear that you will also leave me if I told you. I found you are different from others in second meet only. First day I saw you that you were waiting for bus at late night. After coming from Bangalore I wanted to tell you as I didn't wanted to hide this from you anymore. I know you will get hurt if you come to know from someone but before that it happened like this... I am sorry" Swara said in low tone and bent her head down.

"Why you think about people who talks behind our back. They talk behind us because they don't have any work other than talking nonsense about some other life" Sanskar said frustratedly but Swara kept silent because its true that no one can stop them talking behind their back

"Swara" Sanskar called her on which Swara slowly lifted her head as her eyes were teary.

Sanskar came two steps forward on which Swara looked at him with still eyes. First Sanskar felt hesitant but gaining little courage he moved further and slowly wrapped his arms around her and started to caress her hairs. Swara felt current passed through her spine by his touch. Slowly she also hugged him back by feeling warm and peace in his embrace but still tears were streaming from her eyes.

"I never knew that your life is this much tough. Yes, you are right I wouldn't have done friendship after knowing you are a big celebrity because I am a middle class boy. Your level couldn't match anywhere with me but I don't care about now anything about this all Swara, when we are already became friends. I can't leave my friend alone like how she used to live before we met when she has this much handsome boy" Sanskar said last line dramatically to cheer her up and broke the hug. Swara looked at him as her eyes were still teary and ready to fall from her eyes.

"You could have told me without fear. No problem, its not going to affect our friendship but do promise me that you don't hide anything from me now onwards and don't think about what people will say" Sanskar said on which Swara looked at him with shock, soon smile broke out on her face by listening him.

"I promise" Swara said while smiling through tears.

Slowly Sanskar lifted his hand and  wiped her tears by his both thumb. Swara looked at him with admiration. She felt lucky that she got such understanding man in her life.

"Now come, Arya must be awaiting" Sanskar said with chuckle and both went downstairs.

Swara and sanskar came downstairs and entered inside and saw Arya who was sitting on sofa with tensed and gloomy face.
He looked up by listening door opening sound and got up from sofa.

Swara and Sanskar looked at him.
Arya took relief sign by seeing their smiling face.

"Hi" Swara said with smile.

"Hello" Arya said while smiling back.

"Please come" Arya asked her while moving aside making her way to sit.

"It's ok, I have to go now. I will come some other day" Swara said on which Sanskar looked at her.

"Sanskar you must be tired due to journey, you take rest. I will call you later" Swara said while seeing his tired face.

"At least have some coffee" Sanskar asked her.

"Not now Sanskar, next time I will have full lunch with you both" Swara said smilingly. Both didn't pressure her much and let her go. Swara bid bye to them and went to her home.

"Sanskar, really you didn't know that she is actress?" Arya asked him shockingly not able to believe.

"I thought she is from rich family but never thought that she is this much filthy rich and also I haven't idea that she is actress" Sanskar said while taking short breathe.

"That's why I always told you to watch movie and see TV then you would have come to know about her" Arya said tauntingly.

"Will you shut up?" Sanskar said irritatedly and marched inside his room to get fresh up.

Like this like five more months have been passed and Swara completed her movie shooting. Swara and Sanskar become very close that without seeing each other, they wouldn't have able to sleep. They became each others breath and heart. They both knew that they love each other but never confessed as they were waiting for right opportunity or say special moment. Swara felt happy by getting Sanskar and wanted to propose him but waiting for Arjun and Nandini to come and meet him.
Here Gadodia's kept silent because they couldn't afford to loose anything by making it hard in the fear that Swara might have slip away from their hand and then they would have loss money which they were getting from Sharat. They behaved nice with Swara in these five months. Swara wondered by their nice behaviour but didn't ask about or cared for that. Swara never disclosed her relation with Sanskar publicly. Everyday they used to meet at night and call only. Here Sharat was kept silent till movie complete because he didn't want to messed up in haste decision of him so that he would regret later. He wanted her to come by herself so he behaved nicely with her in all these months but desired for her, inside him which never let him be in peace. He desperately wanted her but if he makes anything wrong then she would have left his movie as well as him also so he was waiting for right moment.
Post production works of film got completed and also released the movie. Film became super hit and got huge success for Sharat, Director as well as Swara also.

They used to meet at their as usual place bus stop and went to near by lake to talk.

Today Sanskar was waiting for her as usual like other day as Swara called him that she was coming.

Swara came there and both went to near by lake as it's 9 pm in the night.

"So madam, congratulations" Sanskar wished her for her movie success.

"Thank you" Swara said with bright smile.

"Then I want a treat" Sanskar said and turned towards her.

"You don't need ask for that. I will give obviously but before that I want to give you surprise" Swara said on which Sanskar looked at her.

"Surprise?" Sanskar asked her with narrow eyes.

"Yes" Swara said with bright smile remembering that.

"What is that?" Sanskar asked her impatiently.

"If I tell you then how it would be surprise?" Swara asked him rasing her eyebrow. Sanskar frowned by listening her.

"I can't wait you know" Sanskar said like small child while complaining.

"Wait for just two more days" Swara said on which Sanskar nodded his head.

Swara took out one card and gave it to Sanskar. Sanskar took it and it was invitation card and looked at cover with confusion and then Swara. Swara asked him to open through eyes.
Sanskar opened the cover and read it.

"Success Party?" Sanskar asked her with surprise.

"Yes" Swara said on which Sanskar smiled at him.

"You will get to know on that only what is surprise" Swara said and was going to get down from but her leg slipped and was going to fall. At the nick of time, she got pulled by Sanskar and landed on his chest. Swara looked at him by lifting her hand as her two hands were on his chest and Sanskar held her through waist. Both had a beautiful eye lock and it was disturbed by chill wind which was blowing in cold night. Sanskar made her sit beside and scratched his head while smiling.
Faint pink colour blush formed on Swara's cheeks.

"Hmm..ok Sanskar I will meet you tomorrow, it's getting late" Swara said and got up along with Sanskar. Both moved out from there and they didn't talk further because of some time moment as they were feeling nervous to talk so they were silent throughout the journey. Swara stopped the car infront of Sanskar's apartment. Sanskar got down from the car and came near another side.

"Good night Swara" Sanskar said with smile.

"Good night" Swara replied with smile and drove off the car away from Sanskar. Sanskar stood their while staring the car. Swara saw him looking at her direction through rare mirror and smiled remembering their moment.

"I can't wait two more days to tell you about my love Sanskar. It's making me go crazy by just remembering that beautiful moment" Swara thought in her mind as pleasant smile was playing on her lips.

Mumbai

Sanskar got ready in his white shirt with black coat and black jeans. He was setting his hairs with gel.

"I think some one is going to propose his love" Arya teased while standing at door by seeing him getting ready from past one hour to go to Party.

Sanskar looked at Arya through mirror and frowned by seeing him. He started to do his work without paying attention to him.

Arya entered inside and turned Sanskar himself and took her gel from his hand, started to apply. Sanskar stood silently and Arya finished his work.

"Now perfect" Arya said with bright smile. Sanskar looked himself in mirror that his hairs were perfectly got set which he was trying since half an hour.

"Thank you" Sanskar said and moved out of the room while taking his mobile.

"All the best" Arya shouted from his back and Sanskar chuckled by hearing him.

Sanskar reached the party venue and saw so many cars were entering inside as they were all looking like businessmen and some were couples and some were younger. They were high VIP people by looking at their dressing he concluded it. He entered inside and his eyes searched for Swara. But she was nowhere to be seen. Sanskar took out his mobile to call but he saw message and opened it.

Swara
"Move your right side, there is way to enter inside the hotel elevator and come to the penthouse which was on top floor"

Sanskar entered inside the hotel as it was one of five star hotel in Mumbai owned by Arjun's friend. So they have penthouse on top of it.

Sanskar entered inside the elevator and pressed the top floor as he was directed.

He reached top floor and  got out from the lift and then looked for anyone but found no one.

He heard message beep sound and opened the message box.

Swara
"Come inside"

"I don't know what is the surprise that she is going to give me" Sanskar murmured himself and entered inside with slow steps. He looked around to find Swara but found one man in his late 20's standing while facing his back towards door. Sanskar got confused by seeing him. He looked around to find Swara as he was feeling nervous by seeing unknown surrounding and unknown man.

Man turned towards Sanskar by feeling someone's presence. Sanskar also saw him but couldn't recognise that who was that.

Man came near Sanskar but Sanskar kept looking at him. He has serious face with strong aura around him. Looking very young and got ready in maroon colour Armani suit. He stood infront of Sanskar.

"How dare you to do friendship with Swara?" Man asked him with serious face in little bit loud voice.
Sanskar flinched in shock as well as scare by his voice. He stood there with shocked expression on his face.

To be continued.
