Swara was awake after some time, saw her parents beside her, at the same time everyone too came inside. She looked at everyone then realised she's at hospital, her eyes stopped on her husband who was looking at her with concern and worry. "Shona beta tum theek ho" asked Shekhar, she nodded, he closed his eyes thanked God and few tears rolled down, "Gadodia Saab yaar aap ne phir se ro ro kar tsunami laa di, hospital hai yahan ke doctors hum pe case kar denge" said in a low voice making everyone laugh, her father too chuckled, he was desperately waiting for her witty talks, Sanskar too smiled, his crazy wife is back on mode. "Bhabhi I'm sorry mujhe aap ko puchke order place karna tha meri wajah se aap hospitalized hui I'm very sorry" said lowering his head making Sanskar sigh, "Aman bhai aap ne bataya nahi aap antaryami ho, aap side business hai kya" said making everyone confused, "kya matlab bhabhi" asked, "mera matlab tha ki aap antaryami toh ho nahi shayad ki aapko meri bina kahe aapko cheeze pata lage, main bolungi tab aapko pata lage ga na ki mujhe kis cheez se allergy hai toh is mein aapki galti kaise hui" said slowly with frequent breaks. Aman smiled a lil, "hmm I think we should let Swara rest for a while aap bahar wait karte hai" said Vicky making them nod, everyone left except Sanskar, she was looking at him. After everyone left he came and sat on the chair, "how are you feeling now" asked softly, "better" said and coughed a lil, he got worried, "paani" she said with dry throat, he nodded and got the glass and kept it at her mouth, she sipped and backed, he kept the glass aside. She moved her hand to wipe the water from her lips but hissed, gaining his attention, "kya hua, is it paining" asked, "haan meri shoulder pe...itching bhi ho rahi hai" said hissing in pain, he came closer to her, looked at her shoulder moved her hairs, saw few blisters and rashes as the reaction of allergy but he had no clue so he was scared, but didn't wanted to scare her, "hmm Swara main abhi aaya ok" said and went out hurriedly, "mom aap log koi Swara ke pass jo I'll just come" said and went out. They were confused and went inside to find her hissing, trying to look at her shoulder, Shomi and Sujata moved to her, "Shona kya hua beta" asked Sujata, "mom itching ho rahi hai" said, Shomi knew that she had rashes, she saw her arms and confirmed, she sighed, Sujata too noticed the rashes.
Sanskar hurriedly went to doctor, "Doctor" said, "yes Mr.SM what happened aap tensed lag rahe hai" asked, "doctor Swara ke arms or shoulder pe rashes hue hai, check it once" said, Doctor nodded and went with him. They entered the room, Shomi was trying to hold her from scratching, doctor moved to her and have a closer look at the rashes, "Mr.SM these are the effects of allergy symptoms, I'll prescribe cream which will ease her itching" said, "Mrs.Swara don't scratch them ok" said and gave the prescription, Aman took it and went to get the medicines. "Mujhe ghar jaana hai" said Swara whinning, "haan chalte hai bas thoda time" said Shomi, and moved out, Shekhar, Vicky and Uttara was with Swara, others moved out, "kahiye Shomi ji aap ko kya baat karni thi" asked Sujata, Shomi has uttered to her that she wants talk to them, "Sujata ji kya hum Shona ko baadi leke jaayen" said Shomi a lil hesitate, they looked at eachother, "Shomi ji Shona aapki beti hai usse leke jaa ne aapko hum se permission lene ki zarurat nahi hai" said trying to ease her hesitation but Sanskar frowned, "par woh abhi theek nahi hai isliye Shona baad mein aajaye toh better rahega" said making Ram nod, "darsal..." she was hesitating again, "Shomi ji aapko jo bhi kehna ho aap befikar hoke boliye" said Ram. Shomi sighed and said, "Shona ko main leke jana chahti ho kyunki woh bemar hai aap log please meri baat ka bura mat lagaye, par aap logo pareshani hogi" said with lot of hesitation, "Shomi ji thoda bura toh laga hai Shona hamari bhi bacchi hai or hume koi pareshani nahi hogi" said, "Sujata ji please aap bura mat maneye but Shona jab bimar hoti hai toh puri bacchi ban jati hai or bahut tantrums dekhati hai" said the truth but not knowing how to convince them. Sanskar held her hand, "maa main Swara ka acche se khayal rakhunga and trust me main sambhal lunga" said politely, she didn't wanted to trouble any one of them, "haan Shomi ji or ab se woh Sanskar ki zimmedari hai toh usse nibhane dijiye or agar usse nahi hua toh hum toh hai hi kyu" said with a smile making her too smile and agree, she mentally thanked 'maa durga' for giving such loving and caring family to her daughter. They walked inside, Aman too was back with medicines and discharge papers, "chalo Shona ghar chalte hai" said Sujata making her smile, she grinned.
Vicky drove Shekhar car with them sitting on the back seat, Ram drove back with Sujatha and Uttara, Aman was driving again, Sanskar carried Swara to the car, she kept her head on his shoulder, she didn't hold him as her arms had rashes and were paining. Swasan took the back seat, Swara was tried so she kept her head on the window, Sanskar was having his attention on her, as their were heading to home, due to hump, she jerked causing hiss, "shh come here" said Sanskar took her in his embrace, he wrapped his one arm around her back, he didn't touch her shoulder not to cause her pain, she kept her head on his chest, held his tshirt in her fist, he caressed her hairs softly which caused her to fall asleep.
Aman looked at them through the mirror and focused on his driving, he was happy looking at his brother caring for his bhabhi so much that kind of warmed everyone's heart. They reached home, Sanskar again carried her and lead to their room directly. Sujata was in kitchen as it's dinner time, she was preparing some healthy light food that's what doctor suggested, Shomi went to Swasan room with medicine which Aman gave her. Sanskar carefully laid her on bed and was keeping the pillows at her back for support, Shomi knocked, he moved away. Shomi entered and smiled at Sanskar, "aap baithiye main abhi aaya" he said, Shomi nodded, he looked at Swara, she blinked her eyes, he went out.
Shomi kept the medicines aside, sat infront of Swara, "kaisa lag raha hai Shona" asked, "theek hu main ab matashree chill or Gadodia Saab ko bhi please bolo pareshan mat hone" said, she nodded, "Shona main tumhe ghar leke jana chahti thi par Sujata ji ne kaha ki woh tumhara khayal rakhenge or Sanskar ne kaha hai woh sambhal lega (Swara was a lil amused) toh baccha please tang mat karna unko" said cupping her cheek. Swara sighed, "matashree aap kya mera image kharab kar rahe ho yaar nahi karti main kisko bhi tang sirf aapko hi lagta hai" said with a angry pout. Shomi smiled, "haan haan pata hai tum kisko tang nahi karti sirf mujhe hi karti ho nahi" said, "matashree main patient or aap ek patient ke sath aise berukhi karenge" said dramatically, she huffed. "Accha yeh dress change karo kuch cotton ka pehno" said Shomi, she nodded. Shomi helped her in changing and she was braiding her hairs when everyone entered the room, Sujata had the plate. Swara saw the plate of khichdi and immediately made a eyes widened, "khichdi" said a lil loudly and dramatically making her mother sigh, "mom yeh khichdi, nahi please" with a sad pout, "Shona beta doctor ne yahin khane bola hai" said Sujata, "no mujhe nahi khani please" said again with sad pout, "Shona enough abhi kuch time pehle kya bola tha ki tum kisko tang nahi karti ab kya kar rahi ho, Sujata main aapko yahin bata rahi thi" said Shomi, "aap mujhe dijiye main abhi khelti ho" said again. Swara made a cry baby face, Sanskar couldn't see that nor Shekhar, "maa main khelta hu" said making everyone surprised, Shomi not knowing what to say just nodded and he took the plate from Sujata, Shomi got up and Sanskar sat infront of her. He moved the spoon to her mouth, she shaked her head in 'no', he glared her and eyed her to eat, she sighed in irritation but opened mouth making him smile a lil but he hide it, and feeded her, she was making faces. Everyone were watching them with pure adoration, Sujata did Anupama aunty style nazar utarna, Shomi and Shekhar had a sense of relief that their daughter is in better hands especially Shomi, she always wanted Swara to get a partner who will be strict at times. Vicky eyed them to leave, they slowly left, Swara was making faces, "bas hogaya" said whinning, "bas yeh thoda hi bacha hai" said and feed her the remaining, after feeding he kept the plate aside, made her drink water wiped her mouth with tissue, he gave her tablets, "no, maine yeh khichdi khayi hai ab yeh medicines nahi, yeh bahut kadwi hai" said in a crying voice, "yeh pain killer hai, tumhe jo dard ho raha hai shoulder mein woh kam hoga" said, she unwilling had and made a yakk face, "yakk kitna gand hai" said cribbing, he made her lie on the bed, caressed her hairs. She looked at his hand, then him, he saw her staring, he raised his eyebrow, "sorry", he was confused face, "kyu", "main aapko bahut tang kar rahi ho naa isliye I'm sorry" said in a cute baby voice making him smile, "Swara you're my wife and taking care of you is my responsibility, actually I'm sorry I should have known about your allergy", she cut him, "par aapko thodi patha tha", "exactly mujhe atleast koshish karna chahiye to know about your allergy, your likes, dislikes" said, "hmm you're right but koi nahi humari shaadi ko kahan utna time hua hai, we'll get to know with time" said, he hmmed. He gets amazed, she is so mature at times and such a kid at times, she slept due to medicines, he got a notification of message, it was from Vicky to inform him to come down for dinner, he said yes, he looked at her sleeping. He covered her with comforter, he went down, saw everyone having food, Sanskar took his seat, "Swara so gayi" asked Ram, he nodded, "ok then main bestie ke pass jati ho I'm done with my food" and stood up, "haan choti agar kuch ho toh bolna" said Sujata, she hmmed and went. Shomi and Shekhar were happy to see the family's care for Swara, Dida was at Basu house, she informed them about Swara, they wanted to come but it was late and Shomi said she's resting so they said they'll visit her tomorrow. Shomi informed to Maheshwari's, "yeh toh acchi baat hai, Shona ka bhi dil lag jayega" said Sujata, "Bhai kal aapke meetings postpone kardu kya" asked Aman, "haan I'll inform you kab reschedule karna hai" said Sanskar, he felt Swara might need him so it's better to stay with her, "beta uski zarurat nahi hai sab log toh hai woh theek hai ab" said Shomi. "Arrey Shomi ji aap please Kittu ko mana mat kijiye main toh bahut khush ho kam se kam apni biwi ke liye toh office chodne ki baat kar raha hai warna toh yeh khana chod dega par office or kaam nahi" said Sujata with a wide smile, "haan aunty yeh robot se insaan ban raha hai iss baat ka toh khushi manani chahiye" said Vicky, Sanskar glared him making others chuckle. Sanskar was done with his food, "I'm done" said and got up, "haan bhai jaldi jaa apna kartavya ka palan kar" said Vicky, he ignored his comment, wished others g'night and went to his room.
After seeing Sanskar, Uttara left the room wishing him g'night, he too changed and got on the bed, caressed her hairs lightly and slept.
