Outside the operation theatre, Swara's world had become a vortex of worries, her thoughts entangled in the chaos, the enigma of the Black Horse, and the fragile life within the operating room.

The pale white walls of the hospital seemed to close in on her, the waiting area feeling like a prison of anxiety and uncertainty.

Inside the operating room, Kunal's hands worked with precision, his concentration unwavering despite the conflict that raged within him.

The beeping monitors and the rhythmic sounds of medical equipment provided a dissonant symphony, a constant reminder of the life that hung in the balance.

Every incision he made, every decision he took was weighed down by the weight of responsibility, his own emotions tangled with the surgical procedure.

Kunal had performed countless surgeries in his career, but this one was different. It was as if time had slowed down, each moment stretching to an eternity.

Doubt and fear whispered in the recesses of his mind, but he pushed them aside, channeling his skill and determination into saving his daughter. His hands moved with a blend of expertise and urgency, a dance of life and death in the surgical theater.

"Swara Maa....We want to go to the park." Aarav made a small pout.

Swara knelt in front of him, taking him into a big hug...."Of course we'll go to the park...but do you want to go without your little sister?" She said pointing towards the operation theatre.

"Yes...but Vini is with me...we both will play games and keep it ready so that we can play with Vanshi...when she wakes up." He answered.

"Mumma, I also want to play." Vini's words were like music to Swara...Her speech had gotten so much better than before.

But with the threat hovering over them...she hard to be a little rude.

"No Bachchas...No park today....after the surgery, you both will help your sister recover...then you can go." She hugged both the kids denying their request.

Both of them huffed in anger, sitting in a nearby bench.

"Alright! Kiddos....what about snacks?" Swati's voice broke through the tension.

Swara nodded denying Swati's request...Swati winked at his sister..."We'll take the constable....it's on this floor, Di!" Swati mouthed.

Swara thought for a while, huffing... she assumed this floor and a constable wouldn't hurt...who would dare to break into the hospital security?

She nodded letting the kids go for some snacks with their Masi.

Diverting her attention back to the operation theatre, she watched the doors in anticipation.

The kids were happy, holding a big burger in their hands...

"Masi, please take us to the playground." Aarav begged.

"Aaru, Your Mumma didn't allow na?" She replied in the same tone.

"Everyday we go to the park...why is she denying now?...You are also a big woman...we won't get lost promise...you'll take care of us." They pleaded.

Swati had no idea about the threat but she assumed Swara tends to overthink in situations..

She looked at the constable ..."Even if we want to go...that Bhaiya over there wouldn't let us." She pouted.

"You can go over there, I'll keep a watch." Came a voice from behind them...after which the constable walked away.

Swati immediately smiled looking at the figure.
