Fanaa - Destroyed in Love - A Swasan FF

Chapter#13 - You are Special

A compliment is like a kiss through a veil. *

--------------------------------------------

Compliments...They were no strangers to Sanskaar Maheswari. He received them quiet often for his good looks, his business acumen, his smile .. he brushed them off usually, but today felt different.

Sanskaar walked out of shower smiling .He couldn't recall when was the last time he felt so happy over a simple compliment. He checked his reflection in mirror, considering his biceps for a minute.

"Tumhare biceps usse se ache hain". Her voice softly echoed in his ears, and he felt and saw the warmth rushing up to his cheeks. God he was blushing!

Only Swara could manage to do that , throw him into loops with a line , a simple smile or her eyes.

He chuckled remembering their first meet at little flowers where he was so apprehensive about taking his shirt off before her... And now he didn't mind becoming Salman for a while for her ...

"Well, not bad Sanskaar," he told himself ."You beat salman obviously for whom Swara is crazy, at least in one department."

He picked up his suit lying on bed .A three piece ensemble from the latest by Tom Ford.

He had a party to attend, his birthday party. Well he would have preferred having a quite one but the name of Maheswari came with a certain weightage which he couldn't ignore.

His thoughts again drifted back to her.

Hopefully she had taken her meds on time , had some proper food. He wished he was with her , taking care of her .May he should call her and check . He rushed towards his phone- but then stopped ..what if she was sleeping.. He would hate to disturb her. He quickly typed in a message, hit send.

Dawai aur khanna time pe lena ..Nahi tho I would drop in with a doctor."

A knock on door.. "Sanskaar ..jaldi karo!" His mom's voice came in.

"Aaraha hoon Maa" he called out in reply.

He checked himself once again in mirror,

Well Its time to don the hat of Sanskaar Maheswari, .He stepped out with his usual dazzling smile .He had a role to play.

Swara

Swara woke up feeling much better .Hardly she had any temperature .Though she felt a bit weak she knew, she would be absolutely fine by tomorrow and all thanks to Sanskaar...

She looked around her room and then stepped out into hall .It felt like he was here.Flowers in the vase, box of chocolates ...she picked one from the box popped it into her mouth ...well now since she was better she could have one

Looking at kitchen she chuckled, remembering his unsuccessful attempts at making soup for her .She laughed out at the thought that this could be a breaking news

"Scion of Maheswari group caught making soup in kitchen."

And then her eyes fell on couch and her heart leaped a bit, that's exactly the place where he scooped her up, in his arms holding so close like she was precious to him and her own thoughts of how right if felt being held in them...Distracting herself she turned back ...one look at the bedpost ..the image of she leaning on to him came rushing back to her...A warmth coursed through her which she didn't want to name .

And she did tell him about noticing his biceps and liking them too . How embarrassing! What would he think, that she was checking him out in picnic.
