Some say the world will end in fire,
Some say in ice.
From what I've tasted of desire
I hold with those who favor fire.
But if it had to perish twice,
I think I know enough of hate
To say that for destruction ice
Is also great
And would suffice.

 But if it had to perish twice, I think I know enough of hate To say that for destruction ice Is also great And would suffice

He still remembered that day at parlour how her touch burned him.Over next few days Sanskaar found himself in different situations stranded with Swara where they were left alone at least for few minutes to an hour.He recalled one instance when he had to pick her up from her classes when Sujoy ditched in last minute and he was left with no option. As she settled on his bike he remarked casually to hold tight ..and almost jerked both of them as he felt her hands around him in a tight hold and her innocent expression accompanied with "you asked me to do so " didn't make things any easier .Sanskaar decided he had enough of this torture ,he would probably kill them both if she was that close to him on bike .

Deciding to take a safe route ,he stopped midway and tried to hire an auto which swara stubbornly refused."Dada told you would drop me back home and I am going with you"

"Shona Zidd mat karo " Sanskaar tried but Swara was not ready to give in.

" Fine .. then stay ..I am leaving and I am not coming back" he moved towards his bike leaving her ,hoping she would give up .

"Fine then .. you made your choice, listen to mine" he halted hearing her and turned to look at her

"I am not moving an inch from here unless you pick me up and if you think I am gonna get scared and take an auto or any other ride ...It's not gonna happen .She met his eyes and held them " I go with you or I stay." She stood resolute as Sanskaar considered her for a minute then silently got back to his bike.In next minute it was before Swara ..his hand hardly gripping the clutch and bike was roaring .Not saying a word Swara got onto bike .. but she knew from his expression that he clearly disapproved her zidd. They rode back home in silence.

Swara decided to keep her distance for a while gauging his mood , and a bit puzzled on Sanskaar's reaction ...why he seemed to jump and repulsive on her touch even if that was an accidental brush of fingers. She wished it's because her proximity affected him as he held same feelings for her . She wondered if she had been pushing Sanskaar too much to accept his feelings ..and feared if things go other way around.May be she should have a word with her Dada.

Over next few days It wasn't hard for Sanskaar to figure out the ploy by Sujoy.. The pattern was evidently visible and he decided it's time for a talk.

"Will you say something Sanskaar? ..You said you wanted to discuss something important ..and it's been a while". Sujoy looked at Sanskaar who is walking besides him in silence.Sujoy didn't mind an evening walk in a park nearby when Sanskaar suggested the same ..it had been a familiar place from years ..especially the playtime in childhood ..but now his silence bothered him .

"I think you should stop whatever you are trying to do .. It's not going to work.' Sanskaar came straight to the point

Sujoy looked at Sanskaar quizzing "What are you talking about ?"
