INDEPENDENCE DAY UPDATE

₪₪₪

Swara was sitting idle on the chair outside Vanshi's hospital room and it had been days since Swara repeatedly sat outside her room waiting for her daughter to wake up....While she was lost in thoughts a hand came forward handing her a cup of coffee.... 

Seeing the source of this concern....she diverted her head declining this care....after asking countless number of times...he gets agitated at her ignorant response "Why are you being this way with me?" He kept the coffee aside pulling Swara up with force....

In the dimly lit corridor outside the hospital room, emotions roiled like a storm between Swara and Kunal. His desperate plea for forgiveness hung in the air, countered by Swara's fierce anger and pain. The atmosphere crackled with tension as they confronted the fractures that had torn their relationship apart.

"I'm sorry goddammit....can't you see I'm trying to make things right?.." 

Swara's eyes burned with a mix of frustration and exhaustion as she stared at the floor, the silence heavy between them. She felt the weight of Kunal's presence, his attempts to break through her walls, but she couldn't bring herself to respond....

 "Make things right? why are you doing it? did I ask for your apology?"

Kunal's voice was strained, his frustration palpable. "Swara, damn it, this isn't about asking you  for an apology. It's about us, about Vanshi. I've been trying to support you, to be here for both of you."

Swara's voice was bitter, her words laced with a tinge of pain. "You want to be the hero, swooping in to save the day? It's a bit late for that, isn't it?"

Kunal's hands clenched into fists, his voice edged with a mixture of anger and desperation. "This isn't about being a hero, Swara. It's about being a husband, a father who's hurting too. I know I messed up, and I'm trying to make amends."

Swara finally looked up at him, her eyes cold as she met his gaze. "You think a cup of coffee and a few words will make up for everything? For the years you were absent, for the pain I went through alone?"

Kunal's jaw tightened, his voice low and intense. "No, it won't. But it's a start. I want to be here now, Swara. I want to support you, to support Vanshi. Can't you see that?"

Swara's expression remained guarded, her voice a whisper. "I can't just forget everything and go back to the way things were."

Kunal's frustration boiled over, his hands gripping her shoulders tightly. "I'm not asking you to forget. I'm asking for a chance to make things right, to be there for you both. But damn it, Swara, you have to meet me halfway."

Kunal's voice was raw with frustration, his eyes pleading for understanding. "Didn't you forgive Swati and my parents for their mistake? Then why not me?"

Something within Swara was triggered by his question, a dam breaking loose inside her. Her voice held a mixture of bitterness and pent-up emotion. "How does it feel to be punished alone? How did it feel for being punished for something you did out of mere emotional response? How would it feel if I don't listen to your explanation?"

Kunal's brows furrowed in confusion, his eyes searching for clarity. "What do you mean?"

A fire blazed in Swara's eyes, her voice unwavering. "What I mean to say, Dr. Kunal, is take your apology and shove it up your ass. Because I don't give a damn. As for why I forgave my sister and your parents, it's because they had their issues with me. But your issues got in the way of my kids."

Swara held Kunal's collar...pulling him towards her....

"My son Aarav had to live in a boarding school. My daughters, Vini is mute, while Vanshi is lying in that bed. And I'm not even sure if my baby will make it through. And that is your fault."

Swara's words were like daggers, pointed accusations that cut through the air. Kunal's face paled, his shoulders slumping as he absorbed her blame.

"You stressed me out, you harassed me, didn't listen to me. Then why the hell should I listen to you?" Swara's voice rose in a crescendo of anger.

"You know what the irony is?....Surprisingly I never hated any one because I still blame myself for what happened to Vansh and Avni...Coz I was the perfect Doctor, with a spotless record......but you...the moment...I realized how you affected my kids....I hated you....if you would've had issues with just me...then trust me I would have still not hated you....Instead, your pride, your hurt, your emotions got in the way to not just ruin my life but ruin my kids as well....and that, is not acceptable." Swara's eyes were red in pain.

"I came back to India...with you only because mysteriously the man responsible for this condition of my daughters also seemed capable of curing them....and that is why I'm here....so don't mistake it for my forgiveness." She warned him.
