Episode # 31: (He would be angry with me.)

Morning:-

Swara woke up and tried to move, but failed. She looked down and found Sanskar was sleeping while hugging her tightly from the back. She kept her hand over his and found something over his hand.

She rubbed her eyes to clear her vision and looked towards his hand. "Bandage?" Swara murmured while looking at his hand. She caressed his hand and turned around in his embrace. Sanskar stirred in his sleep after feeling her movement and opened his eyes.

"What happened to your hand?" Swara asked while grabbing his hand. Sanskar said nothing; he just kissed her forehead and pulled her in his arms. "Sanskar," Swara said in a warning tone. "Hmm," Sanskar replied, his face was in her neck.

"What happened to your hand? Why do you have this bandage?" Swara asked, but Sanskar said nothing. Swara becomes irritated and says, "Okay, don't tell," and by saying that she tries to come out of his embrace, but Sanskar pulls her back.

"Nothing to worry, Mickey Mouse," he said and pecked her nose. Swara made a grumpy face and tried to get up. "Where are you going?" Sanskar said while making his grip tight. "Washroom, now leave me," Swara replied.

Sanskar saw that her mood was off. He knew that reminiscing about all those moments would be hard on her. "Okay," Sanskar said, and while pecking her cheek, left her. Swara got up and went towards the washroom. She came out and went towards her closet.

Sanskar, who was sitting with the support of the bed rest, saw her taking out one dress, but after a few seconds, she kept that dress back. "You'll wear that dress only," Sanskar said while coming near her.

He took out the same dress which she kept back and passed it to her.

Swara shook her head and looked down. Sanskar took a deep breath, and while keeping the dress on the side, he came near her. "Swara, when me, your brother, and your father said nothing about these skirts or shorts, then why are you getting afraid?" Sanskar asked while wrapping his arms around her waist.

"I'm not afraid, I know today he'll come, and wearing these shorts or short skirts in front of him always made me uncomfortable," Swara murmured while playing with his shirt's collar.

"When we are here, you don't have to take tension about anything, now wear the dress which you want, with no second thought," Sanskar said and pushed her towards the washroom with her clothes.

Swara, who was going towards the washroom, stopped and turned around. "You told everyone?" Swara asked, and Sanskar who heard this said, "Don't they have a right to know?"

"Bhai would be angry with me," Swara said in a sad tone. "Swara, you know very well that on which thing he would be angry. So now freshen up," Sanskar replied and Swara while nodding her head went to take a shower.

After getting ready, they came downstairs. Swara saw that all were sitting in the hall. She looked around and tried to find Reyansh, but he was not there. "Bhai?" Swara asked Sanskar, who gazes around.

"Swara," Arnav called her, and she gave him a look full of guilt. "Come here," Arnav said, and Swara gazed at Sanskar, who gave her an encouraging look.

She while fidgeting with her fingers, went towards his father. "Sit," Arnav said and patted the place on the sofa beside him. Swara knew that all were looking at her, but she didn't dare to look at them.

"Will my daughter promise me today, that she'll not hide anything from any of us from now on?" Arnav asked seriously. Swara felt a lump forming in her throat, but she composed herself and while nodding her head, looked towards her father.
