[CAN BE READ AS A STANDALONE]
He cupped her face, hands shaking, thumbs brushing her cold cheeks as if warmth could be summoned by will alone.
"Open your eyes Swati..," he whispered, almost begging. "Please."
His own daughter.
The one they had abandoned.
Why?
Because her heart was weak.
Her lashes fluttered. With effort that seemed to tear her apart, she opened her eyes. They found Veer first, then shifted to the man holding her.
"Save him," she whispered, venom and pain tangled together.
"Save him instead of me."
Before he could speak, before he could even breathe, her eyes rolled back. Her body went limp.
"No," he gasped, pulling her closer. "No, no, no..."
He looked at Veer then realisation hit him.
Karma had finally come to collect.
He remembered the hospital room.
The doctor's flat voice saying she would not live beyond five. He remembered the terror of watching a child die slowly in his arms.
So he ran.
Two days after her birth, he left her behind and now destiny had circled back.
Twenty years later, that same fragile heart was failing.
That same daughter was dying.
In his arms.
The only thing he wanted to escape became his destiny.
Seeing his own child dying in his arms.
The weight of her body felt heavier than guilt, heavier than regret.
He held her tighter, tears falling freely now, knowing some punishments arrive late but never forget the address.
