IF YOU ARE WITH ME

CHAPTER 19

"Haan toh I was hungry.." she admitted cutely and he laughed again..

Before he comes with another remark they heard a knock at the door, "I'll see" she said and he nodded but moved after her.. "Who can come at this time" she mumbled before pulling the door open, "Who's.." she stopped completing her sentense and starred out.. she turned to see Sanskar and then again looked outside the door.

"Shona.." Sharmishtha stepped inside before even Swara realise that it's her mother,she stepped back and Shomi hugged her gently, "How are you.. how's your baby"

Swara was still astonished,the sudden burden she held on her chest since three years tried to come out at the moment,her corners become wet more and more when Shomi cares her face,she's here her mother.. her own mother is there she can see that..

"Swara.." Sanskar wrapped his arm around her shoulder making her jerk and look at him, "Are you ok?" His cold palm touched her cheek as she looked into his eyes that were focused on her, the assurance and shine in his eyes said something that he didn't need to say anymore..

She smiled and leaned on his palm nodding her head,she understood he was awareof it..

"Shona.." Shomi again called her and Swara smiled hugging her and feeling the warmth of her mother's presence, the tears couldn't stop but fell out..

"Kesi ha tu chhori" Swara broke the hug and soon was able to recognise that.. that wasn't her mother's voice and when she looked at the lady standing beside her mother ,made her to glance imidiately at Sanskar gauging more astounded look into his eyes.

"Mom.." she whispered as Sujata came forward and admired her face,scanned her fully,tears brimmed in her eyes..

Silence ruled for few seconds after Sujata met her son's eyes,he didn't utter a single word but his silence spoke volumes,the same need and tug he felt in his heart for the mother who used to love him insanely. She does now too,he knows that.. he can't avoid the fact that this lady holds the same affection for her son for him that she ever held but why now..

Before even Sujata utter a word he rolled his eyes and starred somewhere else.

"Actually Sanskar.. Sujata ji wanted to see Swa..." Shomi stopped..

"Swara.. I'm in my room" he said before turning on his feet and leaving the place,Sujata wanted to stop him but she knew he was hurt and somewhere she was the reason.

"Mom.." Swara smiled and tried to lighten their mood, "Maa you both come inside.." Her already wet eyes shined more and she wiped her corners.. "I'm happy you both came.." Shomi and Sujata admired her enlightened face for a while and then moved inside along with Swara..

Next day..

Sanskar was all ready to leave for his office when Swara entered in the room.

"Swara.. where are my keys?" He rommed in the entire room searching in the every nook and corner of each drawer.. "I'm getting late.." his frustrated face turned neutral when his eyes met hers who was holding the keys up in air infront of his eyes smirking at him. He grabbed them from her hand, "Thanks.." he smiled shortly and moved towards the door avoiding any conversation with her. 

"Sanskar.." he stopped on his track and pressed his eyes, he was avoiding talking to her after yesterday's sudden arrival of their parents,he knew that what would she say and that he wouldn't be able to answer..

He gave in and turned to see her, "Yeah.." he kept his expressions neutral and she stepped towards him. She started buttoning his blazer without saying anything and he watched at her, he knew that she was doing that on purpose..
