Yo! So, I had actually planned to kill off Mani. 😝😝😝

But! All comments said
"Don't kill him!"

So, on popular demand, I'm keeping him alive. 😊😊😊

Also, this means that the pairing will now be Swara and Mani (SwaNi?) , instead of Swara and Laksh(SwaLak).

Hope you're all okay with it. 😉😉😉

Moving on... 💃💃💃

Chapter 19 - End Game

"Nooo!" Rishi gave a heart-wrenching cry and charged forward. Rishi felt his heart still on seeing Mani fall over. However, the only thing he could do was look down the building. "Mani!!!"

On looking down, Rishi felt like someone had given him a jolt of 1000 volt and brought him back to life. He felt a relief like nothing before as he saw the scene.

There, Pawan and Mani lay on the life net that the police had laid out above the ground.

Abruptly, Rishi straightened up and rushed downstairs

Abruptly, Rishi straightened up and rushed downstairs. Seeing Rishi rush off with a smile made Laksh curious. He came near the edge and peeped down as well. His eyes widened on seeing the sight, with his face breaking out into a smile.

Sanskar, on the other hand, was busy trying​ to wake Ragini. "Ragu? Ragu, wake up! Ragini?"

"Bhai he's on the life net! The idiot is saved!" Laksh came shouting towards him. "Mani is alive bhai!"

Sanskar smiled in relief. "Thank goodness. I knew he wouldn't die without irritating me to death."

"Ahaha...! Let's go downstairs bhai."

"You go ahead. I'll come after I manage to wake Ragini."

"Okay Sanky." Laksh rushed past them. Before he left the terrace, he looked back at them. He watched the way Sanskar handled Ragini with utmost care. Like she was a butterfly wing that might fall off if handled with even a little harshness. He could see the pure, unselfish love that Sanskar had for Ragini.

Laksh smiled to himself. 'I realize now. Ragini was never meant for me. Yes it's true I love her. And maybe if I desperately ask you Sanky, you will sacrifice your love for me. But I can't, and won't that do to you two. You and Ragini are meant for each other. If I try to come between you two, that would be my greatest sin.'
