'Who knew there were many branches to this story. When did I let this happen to me? How did I not stop myself from falling into this trap? Was I this incapable? or Was I just blinded by rage? Did I make a mistake, wanting to live life again? Is it wrong to want to be happy? Am I bad or the situation just names me the villain? Did I not do good deeds, to have deserved this? Just like a circle of life, I came back to the same place I ran away from.'

"Look at her! Not even a year is over and they are already having a baby!" The aunties laughed.

Swara was seated at the table just beside the aunties who did not hesitate to pass filthy comments.

She was amazed at their thought process. First they blamed her for not having a baby and now they found it weird that Swara got pregnant before the completion of her one year wedding anniversary.

"Did Kunal really love Avni?" Another Aunty commented.

Hearing Avni's name, had Swara panic. She took a glass of water and began drinking water continuously. She finished almost three glasses of water, unknowingly.

Sheetal noticed her behavior and knew that her daughter in-law was uneasy.

She immediately walked over to Kunal and whispered something into his ears.

Swara tried smiling at people who congratulated her, trying to look calm and composed when in reality she was shivering in fear. She held her womb as if feeling the presence of the baby. This baby was her life and if anything were to happen to it, she wouldn't be able to bear it.

A hand snaked around her waist, diverting her attention.

She smiled knowing who it was. Her husband stood beside her, holding a mic in his other hand.  

"I would like to thank you all for attending this party. It has been a year since we got married and I would say, that is the best thing that happened to me." Kunal declared with a smile. "Second Chances! I'd like to talk about second chances. Life had brought me to diversion. I was distraught, broken, hurt and rebellious. I had forgotten that I was suppose to live and not just exist, my son had become more mature than me in that period...then I met her " Kunal looked at Swara with a smile. 

"My wife, My pride, the love of my life." She blushed at his statement.

"She was like me but at the same time different from me. That is what I liked about her...she blended well with the crowd yet managed to stand out from it. She was..." He took his time finding the right words to address her..."...Unique!" He added in.

"If Avni, taught me how to love...then Swara taught me how to keep loving." This time he glared at the aunties. "We both have been wishing to have a baby...a younger brother or sister of OUR son Aarav." Aarav giggled at his father's words.

"We request you all to bless us and wish us a healthy and happy future." He concluded.

Everyone clapped at Kunal's words, Not letting go of Swara, he looked at her deep into her eyes...as if wanting to drown in them.

Without a warning he placed a kiss on Swara's cheek...making the whole hall 'Aww' . Some awed in shock, while some awed admiring their love.

Swara froze, as if Kunal had done some crime. Taking her own sweet time to process the whole scenario. She blushed and tried walking away from her husband when he pulled her close, keeping her baby bump a priority.
