Hi guys!

********
A man is seen standing near the window, gazing at the infinity, lost in his own world, just then someone placed hand on his shoulder from behind. He turned back to see.
Man- Suraj, you here? That to at this hour, anything important?

Suraj-(calmly, placed his both hands on his shoulders) Come on Sanskar. No need to act. We both know what you are going through right now, so just stop behaving like you don't care at all.

Sanskar- (sadly) what else I can do, suraj?. Nothing, I am not capable of doing anything. I lost my everything (hopelessly) (sighed)

Suraj- You know what sanskar, we all have to face such situations atleast once on our life, but that doesn't mean we should accept the destiny.

He said trying to give him some strength.
Sanskar- but you know very well that it's not happening for the first time with me. I have even lost the count. I don't know what should I do!
He sighed sadly

Suraj- What do YOU want Sanskar? That's what matters the most
Sanskar- I don't know what I want from my life. I am fed up suraj, I am tired of fighting all the time, why can't I get a normal peaceful life without any dramas. Now I don't have much energy remaining to fight all this again. I just want peace.
Suraj- How will you get the peace
Sanskar- may be death give me some peace
He said making him shocked
"Are you out of your mind, sanskar! Don't even think anything like that" suraj shouted at him

"Then what the hell I should do, suraj. I can't die, then what should I do. I can't endure this drama anymore. I want some peace and happiness in my life. But god has given a life full of twist & turns, just like a rollercoaster ride. If one drama ends then something new happens, if I somehow sort out that too, then a new problem arise and the cycle continues. What enmity does god have with me. I can't take all this anymore. Why destiny is so cruel to me!!" He shouted losing his patience, and fall down on his knees.
Today he was Broken beyond repair, he wasn't having anymore energy left to fight with this world. The war which he was fighting with his destiny has made him so weak that he is not even ready to face the harsh realities of his life.

Tears brimmed in Suraj's eyes, seeing his strong friend breaking like this. And crying like a child. No doubt, destiny has always been cruel to him, be it when he had wanted to marry Kavita, when he begins to love Swara, when he get married with his with so much difficulty, when he almost lost his swara during Rajat case or when Sahil tried to marry her or when his love left him accusing of the crime he never did. Every damn time he had to fight for what was his. But whenever he fight against all the odds he was having his strength, hus Swara by his side, except when he had wanted revenge of kavita's death. But this time she wasn't with him, instead he was fighting this battle between love, trust and anger which has initiated all due to her one mistake, their anger, their ego, their impulsive nature,for which both of them were paying, and the cost was none other than their own relation, which was on the verge of breaking.

Suraj-- Sanskar, control your self. Be strong, you can't break like this. You need to fight. For you, for Swara, for your love. Now just stop crying like a baby. (And wiped his tears)
He said trying to console him but he himself was crying during all this.

But it looks like, whatever he was saying wasn't even reaching Sanskar's ears, because he wasn't responding at all, he was just sitting on the floor with his head resting on the wall and looking somewhere aimlessly.

"Sanskar, atleast say something please. Your this silence is scaring me" suraj said getting worried

"What should I say, Suraj? I do not understand what to do! All my relationships are falling apart before my eyes and I am not able to do anything.
I feel like everything is slipping from my hand one by one. It seems that Swara is with me at this moment, but I will lose her in the next moment.
It does not seem that nothing can be right now. Everything is shattered, Suraj. It seems as if I am having a nightmare and the next moment my sleep will break and I will find that everything is fine.
But unfortunately, this is not a bad dream, but a bitter reality of my life, which I am not able to accept." Saying this, he expressed his sorrow. Which is slowly slowly suffocating him from inside.

Suraj's heart broke listening to his agony. He wasn't having words to console him, because somewhere he is also aware that, it's of no use.he sighed sadly and sat beside Sanskar.

Suraj- You know what, Sanskar? The best motivation is the self motivation. Till the time , you won't start believing in yourself again, nothing could be done. And let me remind you something, which you only said to me once.

Sanskar turned his face towards him with a questioning look
"What?" He asked with curiosity
"Sanskar Maheshwari never loses, because I have just learned to win and then it does not matter whether the war is with human or destiny" Suraj said reminding him
Suraj- these are your words Sanskar, which you only told me once, and you also told me that, it is not your job to give up.

"Think wisely Sanskar. It's your life and you need to fight for what is yours. Don't let some heartbreaks defeat you. You need to write your destiny by your own. You are still the same Sanskar, who can destroy everything for his love, you are the same Sanskar Maheshwari.
Don't fall weak.
Don't shed tears, if you want something, work hard and snatch it away.
No one can beat you, but only your own fear can beat you. Think about it". He pat his shoulder and leave him alone in his own thoughts.

Sanskar's POV
Suraj is right. I need to fight for what's mine. I can't let something break me so easily.
My relation with Swara, our bitterness, our anger, nothing has enough power to destroy the Sanskar Maheshwari. It's not time to cry, it's time to show everyone that, they can't break me no matter how hard they try.
POV Ends

He got up, wiped his tears and marched out of his room with a determined face.
"Sanskar.." someone called him from behind
He turned to see.
"Tanya.." he whispered. Everything begin to revolve in his mind. Their cute friendship, their fight, her accusations. Her words had cut deeper than the knife. Her words were making his heart bleed. Tears dwelled up in his eyes remembering her bitter words.

"San.. sanskar, I..I want to...say.. that." She stammered while trying to convey something

He didn't said anything, but just continue to stare at her with the painful look as if trying to ask her, what wrong I did to deserve this? Was our relation so weak that some mere differences can break us apart? If this is what being best friend actually means?

"Sans...sanskar ...I ...I am so..sorry"she finally said, looking down at the floor, may be feeling ashamed of her words.

He still didn't reacted.
"Sanskar, I want to go to my house, as our differences are pulling us apart, and this causing to break our relation." She said in a one breath.

Sanskar- so what?
He said coldly, as if he doesn't care at all.
This brought tears in her eyes.

"Sanskar....I am saying about going back to Anuj" she said with so much difficulty while crying
"Yeah I know"
"so! So won't you say anything?" She said in utter disbelief.
Sanskar- Who am I to tell you something or give you opinions? We are both just friends, and it is not right for friends to interfere in someone's personal matters like this. And by the way, this is your life, your wish. Go where you want to go. Who am I to interfere in your personal life !?

And he started going from there saying such words, but came back and said

"I wish you a happy married life" and left from there.
Hearing his such words, she realized where she went wrong. She went wrong in understanding him, in carrying on their relationship.
But now there is no other option but to repent and curse oneself.
_______
Swara- (confused)But Tanya, where are you going? And did you talk about this with Sanskar?

" yes! I did asked him and he knows very well, where I am going. Goodbye and I hope you and Sanskar remain happy together. Good luck." She said with a fake smile and sighed sadly.

Swara- okay, but atleast tell me, where are you going
"I am going to my husband. Don't worry I will be alright. I should go now, I am getting late...." (interrupted)

"Nobody's going anywhere!" Sanskar said from behind, making everyone shocked

"But Sans.." she tried to protest but he cuts off her words in the middle

"Don't you understand the meaning of no?" He shouted losing his patience.

Swara was witnessing all this silently, not understanding what all is happening here.
Sanskar- (coldly) go to your room.
He said with utmost authority in his voice.
"But..."
"I said go!"
She silently move back to her room, knowing very well that it's of no use to argue with him.

Swara- Sanskar, I want to talk to you about...
He didn't let her complete
Sanskar- Yes! I also need to talk to you about something very important.
Swara nods.
Before she could react, he held her hand and move towards his room and closed the door.

"Swara, I want answers of my questions and it should be honest. Okay!" he said with seriousness in his voice, caging her between him and the wall, by his arms.

She shivered listening to him. The way he is speaking to her is something she is encountering for the first time with him.

"Yes or no" he asked, bringing her back to the reality
Swara - (whispered & nods) yes
"That's like a good girl" He said and patted her cheek
Swara- Sanskar...(interrupted)

Sanskar-(putting his index finger on her lips) shhshh ...today, only I will ask the questions and you will only answer.
She nods

Sanskar- Okay. So tell me, do you want us together.
She is about to speak something but he interrupts.
Sanskar- answer in yes or no
Swara- Yes(whispered, looking in his eyes)

Sanskar- Do you really wish to live with me
Swara- Yes
All the time she is staring in his eyes

Sanskar- What can you do for me?
Swara- Whatever you ask.

Sanskar- hmm. Will you do what I tell you to do?
Swara- Yes! I will.

Sanskar- If I ask you to leave me, will you leave?
He asked, there was a hope in his eyes.

She gets shocked listening him. Tears brimmed in her eyes. She had wanted to say many things, but she felt like her tongue got tied. Words weren't coming from her mouth. Her throat was dry. The thought of getting separated from him, made her senseless. She was hyperventilating, her heart was beating so fast.

Sanskar- (little loudly) Swara! I am asking you for the tenth time. Will you leave me?
Now he was losing his sanity.

She didn't said anything but hugged him tightly, as if she loosened her grip then he will go away

Swara-(crying) san.. sanskar please... please don't ask me to leave you....I..I will die Sanskar...I will die. Pl.. please don't sep.. separate me fr...from you..pleaseee(sobbing)

And tightened her hold on him.

He sighed in relief, as if that's what he had wanted to hear.

Sanskar- shhsh No one is separating us. Don't worry.
He said while caressing her hairs, trying to soothe her pain.

Swara-(crying) I don't want to loose you sanskar... please forgive me for everything...if you want then, shout at me, hit me, slap me...bu..but don't tell me to leave you... please Sanskar, don't give me such a big punishment..I..I beg you.. please...

His heart broke, seeing her like this. He had wanted to hurt her or make her cry, jis only intention was to make her realise her mistake.

Sanskar- stop crying like a baby, you look like chudail, while crying. Come on smile now.

He tried to lighten up her mood but she didn't stopped, she was continuously crying. He tried to break the hug but she hugged him more tightly.

He also didn't tried anymore to break the hug. Instead he took her in his warm embrace, with his palm caressing her head. His chin resting on her head. But he wasn't having any emotions on his face. At that moment if someone tried to read his face then he won't be able to understand what is going on in his mind because he wasn't having any expressions at all and he was thinking something deeply.

On the other hand unaware of the battle he is fighting with his mind and heart, she lost herself in his embrace feeling his warmth after such a long time, expecting everything to be okay soon. Hoping for the peace in their life.

But is it so easy as she thinks or destiny have some other plans for them...!!
He broke the hug and wipes her tears.
"I want something from you" he said making her confused.

She opened her lips in order to ask but he put finger on her lips

"Promise me Swara you'll never leave me, no matter what.." he looked at her hopefully with tears in his eyes

Swara-(trying to make him understand) Sanskar I'm..(interrupted)

Sanskar-(didn't let her complete) no swara let me finish, I want you to be with me cuz now I don't have energy to fight with anyone I just want a peaceful life without any drama, please never leave my side because this time I will die I don't have any other reason to live.

He left the room leaving her stunned.
She came back to sense by notification on her mobile, it was showing Sanskar's location. Without out thinking anything else she wiped her tears and took the car keys to reach near him as soon as possible.
