Episode # 30: (Her innocence, his rage.)
"Hey, hey, Swara," Sanskar said while cupping her face. He came to his senses after hearing her cries. "Shh, stop crying," Sanskar said and hugged her tightly. Swara was hiccupping badly while hiding her face in his embrace.
When she didn't stop, Sanskar got up while taking her in his arms and lay her down on the bed. Swara came above him and cried incoherently while hiding her face in the gap between his shoulder and neck. "Please, don't hate me. He said that if I tell this to anyone, people will call me a dirty girl," Swara said in a crying tone. Sanskar fisted his hand in anger after hearing this, but he composed himself and made her face him.
"Swara, what happened, that day?" Sanskar asked while rubbing her tears. Swara was hiccupping badly; Sanskar after seeing this picked the glass from the side table. He made her drink some water and lay down again while taking her in his embrace.
"I.. I," Swara tried to say, but because of excess crying, she was panting. "Calm down," Sanskar said while rubbing her back and kissing above her head. Swara calmed down after some time and looked towards him with swollen eyes.
"Would you tell me?" Sanskar asked while cupping her face. Swara nodded her head and kept her head over his chest.
"Whenever he used to come here, he always gave me chocolates. It was a usual thing: I find nothing different. However, that day I was in my room when Maasi came here. I didn't know as I was taking a shower. When I came out after getting ready, I heard a knock. I opened the door, and he was standing in front of me," Swara said.
Flashback:-
("Hello Swara," Tarun said to her when she opened the door of her room. "Hello, uncle," 14-year-old Swara said in a chirpy tone. "I thought to meet you," Tarun said while coming inside her room.
"Where is Maasi?" Swara asked, and Tarun said that she was downstairs. "I'll meet her," Swara said happily and took her steps towards the door.
"You can meet your Maasi later. Look, I brought a bar of chocolate for you," Tarun said while taking out chocolate from his pocket. Swara came near him and tried to grab chocolate from his hand. However, before she could take the chocolate, Tarun pulled her into his arms.
"Uncle, what are you doing?" Swara asked in a shocked tone and tried to free herself. "You know I like you very much," Tarun said while caressing her face. Swara was crying because she was scared as hell.
"Mom," Swara tried to call her mother, but Tarun kept his hand over her mouth and muffled her cries.
Swara tried her best to free herself, but she was a child, and Tarun was stronger than her. He pushed her on the bed and tried to remove her shirt, Swara tried to scream, but he again kept his hand over her mouth.
Before Tarun could do more, Swara heard a knocking sound on her room door. Tarun was startled after hearing the knock. Swara didn't know that Tarun had locked the door. "Swara, your Maasi came," Niharika said from outside the door and tried to open the door, but couldn't.
"I think she is taking a shower," Swara heard her mother's voice. She tried to call her, but Tarun had his hand over her mouth.
"If ever you tell about this to anyone, then I'll kill Aarav," Tarun said in a threatening tone. Swara's eyes went wide after hearing this, and she shook her head. "Good girl, and if ever you tell this to anyone, then people will call you a dirty girl," Tarun said and removed his hand from her mouth.
"People will hate you," Tarun said and held her face in a tight grip. Swara controlled her scream and tried to free her face. "Next time, we will continue," Tarun said and tried to kiss her. However, before he could do that, he heard a sound of footsteps outside Swara's room.
