Arjun: Swara! Stop all this! Nothing will happen to you! I will get you treated from the best doctors but I won't let anything happen to you! Are you listening to me?
Swara: Come on Bhai. Even you know that there is no point in me living. Who am I living for? Myself? (chuckles) No. I have been living a nightmare everyday and finally it comes to an end. Looks like God has answered my prayers.
Ruhi: Swara what are you saying?! If not for yourself then live for us. Have the hope to live for us! You may want to die but we don't. We need you. What will happen to us if you go?
Swara: Ruhi you know very well that it's not you who needs me but me who needs you. Life will keep playing games with me and that's completely fine but it doesn't stop you from living. I died that very day 2 years ago when I got betrayed. My soul was destroyed that very day. I am just a weak leaf hanging on to the branch. I'm about to fall one day. And the time has come.
Riya: Swara I know after all that has happened with you, having the will to live and continue is difficult. But look on the bright side, you may have lost something that day but today you have more than you lost. Look around, you have brothers like Arjun and Suraj, sisters like Ruhi, Aadhya and Ananya and parents like Priya aunty and Arnav uncle. You have your whole family with you. So what is Sanskar betrayed you? So what if he left you? You now have us. And we want you. And we're not giving the permission to go so you have to stay with us for the rest of our lives. You may have come by your will but you will leave by ours. Got it?
Swara smiles faintly and nods and looks at Arjun understanding that he must have told her everything while Arjun gives her an assuring nod in return.
Swara: I will try to live for your sake but if it were up to me I wouldn't mind if I died here.
Ruhi: Shut up! Don't you dare repeat those words again!
Ruhi slaps her playfully and sobs then they all share a hug whilst the doctor comes in.
Doctor: Excuse me Ma'am, your MRI scan is scheduled for tomorrow for 3pm. Make sure not to have any metal on you as it's a safety hazard. I will go through the instructions with you again tomorrow before the scan and there are no restrictions on eating and drinking before the scan so feel free to eat anything. Thank you.
Swara: Ok thank you.
The doctor nods and goes out of the ward. And Swara remembers something.
Swara: Ruhi! Oh God! I completely forgot we have a meeting tomorrow. Did you run through their information?
Ruhi: Are you crazy? You think you're going to work in this state?
Swara: What do you mean? Of course I am! I can't just leave all my work and also because of bhai's engagement I already cancelled a few meetings and I can't afford to cancel more.
Arjun: Absolutely no! You will not work in this state. Who knows your condition might deteriorate if you work and you also have the scan tomorrow so no way!
Swara: Bhai please! You see if I stay at home all the time then I will feel suffocated and you know that I get very busy so please!
Arjun: Who says your going to stay at home? You're going to be staying at the hospital until you are fully treated.
Swara: What! Bhai you know that I hate the smell of hospitals. Please!
Arjun: Then we'll get an air freshener for you and you can spray it. Problem solved.
Swara: Bhai please! I'm doing so much for your sake can't you do this much for me? I'm going to die anyways at least let me complete my work before I do.
