"Yeah." She said nodding at him.

"What is it?" Sanskar asked waiting for her to say.

"Sanskar, can I ask you something um.. if.. if you don't mind?" Swara asked being not so sure about his reaction.

They continued walking together.

"Swara, we have given a chance to this relationship to understand and know eachother. So, obviously you can ask me anything you want." Sanskar said assuringly.

Swara nodded at him with smile and then say.

"Sanskar, Um.. that.. that day in park you said that you.. you have someone in your life? May be you.. you loved someone. I... I don't.. um was that just an excuse to deny or was it...?" Swara stuttered with the sentance and couldn't just complete the question. She avoided her gaze from him looking away.

Hearing this, Sanskar has amused smile on his face. That was really unexpected question from her. Because she already caught him lying that day. Then why she had raised this topic now.

"What do you think Swara?" Sanskar asked as he stopped walking.

Swara also stopped just one step ahead of him as she heard him asking this. She turned around and looked at him. Then say.

"What I see in your eyes I told you that day. I felt that was a lie and even you didn't mentioned anything further about it. But I shouldn't stick to my assumptions, right?" Swara said.

She paused a bit and then continued.

"Still one thing I am sure and I trust you Sanskar that presently you are not having anyone in your life. Otherwise, you wouldn't be standing here with me and talking right now like this. So.... um.. I just thought to ask you. Although it doesn't matter if it was your past but.. hav.. have you ever fallen for someone?" Swara asked him.

Sanskar was listening everything and just felt that will this girl ever stop surprising him? She asked him something but showed trust in him too. There should be a way to ask something to anyone that the person shouldn't feel that you are accusing him and she did it so politely. It has a question, her confusion but no accusations.

"And you are asking this now, because...?" Sanskar asked taking a small step toward her which led to quicken her heartbeat.

"Um.. I.. I don't know. I.. I just felt to ask as that just crossed my mind suddenly. It's.. it's ok if you..." Swara tried to say when Sanskar interupted.

"You were right. I wouldn't have been here with you if there would be anyone else in my life. Neither I had ever fallen for any girl. Before you, there were enough proposal came for me as mom wanted me to get married but I hardly even remember the name or face of those girls (letting out a small Chuckle). So, no I never had any girl in my life."Sanskar said truthfully.

Swara smiled at him as he politely answered her and she saw only truth in his eyes.

Then Sanskar again started walking and Swara walked along with him.

"I got my answer but... Don't you wanna ask this to me?" Swara asked turning her face toward him.

He sees her eyelashes blinked a couple of times and shook his head negatively with smile.

"No, I don't find a need to ask you this when I already have the answer." Sanskar said with a smile.

Her heart fluttered with his words. And this man says that he is not perfect.

"Still, I want to know something else about you." Sanskar said.

"Hmm?" Swara hmmed signing to continue.
