Hello friends,
How are you all ....
A big sorry guys for being so late... actually l was confused about how to proceed the story because of exams I've totally lost connection...😅😅 Plz Forgive me ..

__________

At hospital

Squinting at the sunlight swara opened her eyes ....it took a while to recognise her surrounding but when see did first thing she saw was Sanskar's blazer on her side... blinking away her tears she tried to sit.. when a sudden pain shot through her ribs... hissing at the pain she tried to grab the headboard when a gentle hold broke her trance..
Sanskar tried to help her sitting when swara halted a bit
Swara: Thank you but I can do it myself....
Sanskar : (clenching his teeth ) .. I can see that .... and what do you think you are doing... I'll help..
Swara: ( controlling her tears) you...(smiling bitterly) you'll help me ...(seeing him with unshed tears) where were you Sanskar ... when I  almost lost my...( closing her eyes and opening them again) leave that ..now I'm fine you can leave( showing the door.). Thank you for taking care of me

Closing his eyes Sanskar controlled his rage at her words... silently gripping her arm he glared at her resistance..and helped her to sit .. arranging pillows behind her back he covered her .sitting at the side Sanskar gazed her lovingly .

Swara tried to avoid looking at  Sanskar....

Both jerked at the Sudden sound  of door.  Pia entered smiling softly at swara.

Pia: thank God you are fine Shona ..I was so scared ... (caressing her hairs)
How are you feeling now ..and (touching her baby bump) how is my angel..

Swara observed as Sanskar stiffened at the mention of her baby ..sighing inaudibly she wiped the tears flowing from Pia's face unknown to her. smiling assuringly she nodded at her ...
Hugging her tight Pia trembled as she remembered pale swara lying unconscious on hospital bed..
Pia : you'll not argue with me now and I'm not going to hear anything ...you are shifting with me ...

Swara observed Pia as Pia tried to mask up her pain .caressing her knuckles swra noted how she had lost her charm, her eyes everytime twinkling has lost it sparkle ....
Swara: Pia... Are you ok
Pia: (smiling nervously )huh.. ofcourse ...what will happen to me... I'm fine ..I was just worried about you..
Swara tried to gauge her expression..
But being in same room with Sanskar didn't helped a bit ..
Pia observed swara's gaze and found her looking at Sanskar..noting the  lost look on both of their faces Pia thought something ..
coughing fakely Pia said : Shona I think I forgot my phone at waiting room.. also I've to meet your Dr. For your reports . you take rest ok..I'm coming in a bit.
Swara smiled at Pia's concern. And nodded at her.pia left glancing at Sanskar

After a long pause Sanskar tried to break their silence.. Coming closer to her
Sanskar: ( clearing his throat) uhm.. Shona ..that ...wo..
Smiling sadly swara Interrupts him
Swara: you can ask Sanskaar now I'm habituated of this.
Sanskar watches her speaking without any emotions.his heart twisted seeing her this broken

Sanskar's pov
I know swara you are suffering..... I can't hurt you ..but I have to know (glancing at her bump)..delaying will only result in Misunderstanding.  Sorry ..  Shona but I have to do this ..

Sanskar: (closing his eyes ) how you become pregnant... (Hurriedly) I'm
Not doubting on you ...I believe you really ..just tell me the name of the culprit.... grabbing her hands believe me Shona I am not going to leave him....I love you and your everything is mine this baby also..but plz just tell me the truth ..

All the time swara is looking directly at Sanskar... The way she was looking unsettled Sanskar but composing himself he waited for her answer

Swara with teary eyes " why do you left me Sanskar...why.. what was my fault ....uniting family so that you can never face your past experience again... Or leaving you so that my sister doesn't die out of depression ..or leaving you so that you can realise your mistake ..I didn't leave you Sanskar .. remember that phone call..you ..( mumbling ).you ended our relationship... (looking at him with teary eyes) why can't I be angry on you Sanskar ... don't I have any right on you I thought when everything will cool down we will unite brushing of every damn Misunderstanding...(wiping her tears)
Sanskar feeling guilty  watched her helplessly
Swara: you can be angry on me Sanskar ...and I can forgive you but why that time I was not forgiven.. why I can't ...why I have  to act mature all the time .. didn't you understand Sanskar.. (looking at him emotionally) how much i loved you. I depended on you that whatever happened in my life but when I'm with you I can be that carefree full of mistakes normal human being..you could have fought with me and brought me back but you left ...I was all alone fighting with myself .... Crying so that I can sleep without you...I know I was wrong but couldn't you correct me ..(whispering) forgive me ...am I that bad.. (looking at him) you want to know Na Sanskar ..I'm not gonna hide it anymore...
This baby is yours Sanskar ..(smiling bitterly) you're my culprit..
