Chapter 2
Hola.. here is the next update... Someone please teach me how to write short stories.. this is my second attempt in writing an os but ended up in TS.. now you guys are asking for Sanskaar pov.. so I'm going to turn this into a 5S... Please don't throw chappals okay but definitely not sandals and heels..
Note I didn't plan this.. I wrote this first part in frustration on swara. That she didn't love Sanskaar enough.. I made her love him more.. as my readers of both stories know it's been a tough job for Sanskaar to make Swara to fall for him.. here is the reversal..
Hope you like it...
Love you all..
PART :- 2
You have bewitched me body and soul, and I love, I love, I love you. And wish from this day forth never to be parted from you.
_____ Jane Austen

He gained conscious after ten hours. He shouted hysterically seeing me. That he doesn't want to see me. He threw things at me. Doctors asked me to wait outside not to show my face to him anymore. What I do to him.? Why he is doing this to me.. I can do anything other than around him.. I'm not asking him to love me. Why can't he just think me as a human... I must be the one, should behave like this with him. Then why he is behaving like this with me. I want to know what happened to my love. His nonstop screaming echoing throughout the hospital, which is piercing my heart.. Continuously his ask for drinks screeching the building..
Laksh jiju arrived after one day. He met him along with the doctors.. I'm too numb to realize what was happening with him and with me. I was engrossed in his thoughts. His screams and how he was tied to the bed. Not to run away from the treatment. Just then jiju walked in the corridor. I ran to him.
"What was happening jiju.? What's all this.?"
"I'll tell you Swara."
We walked to the canteen. Got seated at the corner... He started to explain how and who is the reason behind his condition..
"Kavita... Broke up with him. By telling him that he was just a fancy doll, not a man worth for marriage. And to lead a family. Like he is dependent on his papa... She got a right man for her. Asked him to move on. Let her live her life peacefully." He took a sip of a hot Palin coffee with a cream on top..
"Knew it before jiju.. one day she'll do this to him." Jiju shook his head.
"He loves her very much Swara.. a week before that, he introduced her to papa.. maa accepted his love. But papa was against it. He wanted him to marry you." I lift my head in shock..
"But he protested against papa and left the house for her.. he stayed in his friends hostel for one week he didn't even came to see maa.. he loved her that much... But that girl.."
"She is a bitch." I said.. "What did doctors reported about his condition." I added..
"Yeah.. Doctors reported drug overdoses, involve mixtures of alcohol and tranquillizers. If he haven't admitted on time.. he might end up in fatal destruction." It brought tears.. Which im trying to hide for the past one day..
I'm cursing myself for leaving him in hands of that witch.. After knowing about her intentions..
"When did he came to LA.? Why you people inform me about his arrival.?" I was little bit harsh with him.. but I can't stop me. Not after seeing him like this..
"It's been five months. Swara.. he doesn't want to be in India as her memory tormenting him." He stopped. "He asked us not to tell you about his whereabouts." There is some laxity in his tone..
"Why.??" I asked him.
"Hmmm... You're a reminder of Kavita to him." It shattered me a lot.. Tears are clouding in my eyes..
"Jiju I stayed here for two days.. now I have to show myself in office otherwise they may file a missing case. And might stick the poster all around with my image on it." He laughed for my words.. I smiled at him.. only i knew how broken I'm, how my heart is bleeding... For my love..
"You.." he hit me on my head.. "We missed you." I was about to leave..
"Swara.." he called me I turned my head towards him.. "You didn't ask about your sister and your funky prince." I virtually hit on my head.. I totally forgot about my sister and my nephew in love for him..
"I know about my jiju.. he'll take good care of my sister.. and my funky... See you jiju." I ran away from the hospital.. not before seeing him..
________
One week passed... He is still not allowing me to see him.. I secretly gets a glimpse of him. I get know about that he consumed amphetamine. Why he is spoiling his life for that worthless women.. I made sure to him that I'm not going to stay away from him this time.. After getting to know about that I'm reminding him about Kavita.. How dare he is... I walked into his room.. he again started to shout at me.. Thank god no heavy thing around him..
"Get out.!!" He screamed at me..
"I won't.." I walked further into the room.. "Why I have to.?"
"Please Swara.. do as he says." It's jiju scowled by pacifying him..
"Ohh Mr. Maheswari.. you don't know me before.. don't you..?" I barked in return..
"Get out you bitch." He chaffed at me..
"Bitch that is you Mr.Maheswari.. not me.." I crossed my hands.. He is breathing in rage..
"How long you know me.?" He startled with my question..
"I can say from my birth.. I'm not reminding you of anything other than that.. Like the daughter of your papa's friend or the girl who used to fight with you all ways.. or the girl who gave you this.(pointing a scar on his forehead) or jiju's saali or your eternal enemy." He gave up on his protest and scream...
"Say me that I have existed for you.. But not that.." I'm trying hard to control me but I can't.. "Not that I'm the reminder of that.." I ran out of the room as my emotions are on the verge to burst out..
I cried a lot in the lobby by hugging my knees.. After I again entered into his room.. he was under sedative, sleeping peacefully.. with a tear drops on the edges of his eyes..
Days were passing like a jet.. it's been twenty days.. He is treated for rehabilitation... At first he was adamant to obey with his brother.. To take medicine.. He constantly ask for drugs and drinks.. Jiju used cry when he is alone.. thinking about his brother..
That day jiju was struggling with him in making him to take medicines. He swiftly whisk his hands which is forcing him to take the tablet in... Sometimes it was pure fun to watch this brother's.. Sometimes they drench my eyes with tears.. That was one fun time I was having with them.. He whisking juju's hand, jiju forcing.. hmmm.. no begging him to consume those dozens of medicine.. I lost interest in that drama at one point I walked towards the bros. Took a glass of water from jiju.. dilated my hands..
"Tablets." I said seeing his eyebrows pointing at me.. he placed those tablets in my palm.. I gestures him to move aside.. he moved..
I walked towards him.. "Say aaa.." he passing his favorite angry glare at me..
"If you have this tablets.. I'll untie your legs.." he silently opened his mouth.. I dropped tablets one by one into his mouth with a sip of water.. He all done with it..
"Untie it.. now." His groaned..
Jiju stopped me from doing it, I convinced him nothing will happen.. I untied the chains around his ankles. That was I now.. The next moment he lunged at me pushed over the wall.. by pointing a pocket scissor at my throat. His blood shot eyes are reflecting with the hatred for me.. Jiju was frozen with the happening..
*At least, now you came closer to me, At last you sense me.*
His hand over my neck is tightening the grip... Making it harder to swallow the saliva.. I closed my eyes to compose myself this is not the time get panic. He can't do anything to me. You can do it Swara, you love him. Yeah you love but not he. The battle in between me I was disturbed by his voice..
"I want to drink now.." He wobbled.. "Open the door I have to go." He added by getting the Sharp point of that scissor onto my neck..
"Sanskaar. Don't do anything.. I'll open the door.." jiju was about to open the door.
"Jiju please don't." He stopped on his way..
"Why are you stopping him..? I'll."
"Why are you talking.? If you want to kill me go ahead.. slash my throat. Pierce this through my heart.. I'm ready to die.. but I'll never allow you to go out nor drink." He widened his eyes in anger.. Strangled my throat.. Come on swara you can't give up on him. My heart voice boosted me..
"Im... Not.. afraid of you.. not now, not before, definitely not after." He loosen the grip on my throat.. But still holding it..
"See what have you transformed to.. into a beast... The Sanskaar I know.. that's not you.." he left my throat holded my chin.. pulled me closer to him..
"He died a long back ago.. don't talk about him." With that he left me walked towards the bed.. Seated on it..
"Ask her to get out." He said pointing his fingers towards jiju..
*Ask my life, I'll give it to you. Don't ask me to leave you which is worse than that death.*
"Jiju tell him that I'm not going anywhere." With that I took my seat on the couch..
He passed an glare then he lied on the bed. Jiju sighed a relief breath.. From that day it's me who is giving medicines to him.. I don't know why.. but he didn't say a word from then..
That's how we came into a deal. Not soo deal.. but being around him.. butterflies are tingling at my stomach.. Whenever his gaze fell on me.. okay baba frown.. on me.. I get goosebumps.. See now I'm in my office bit thinking about him.. I felt someone closing my eyes..
"Come Nick.." I gave a hit on his hand which is on my eyes..
"Hey my Juliet.. What's cooking in you.? Did you love me.. Haan.." He Started his work flirting with me..
"Nick you're my boss that's why I'm leaving you.. otherwise I can." He stopped me by placing his fingers on my mouth..
"I'll tell you.." he crossed his hands around my shoulder pulled me closer to him.. he leaned his head on mine.. twisting his hands in the air..
"What is this.?" I startled..
"Can't you see spiral.. FLASHBACK." I laughed at him..
Yeah I was walking on the park.. it was a morning walk.. hmm not soo morning walk because its already 11.. That was the day I met him on the park.. he was following me for about one week.. If I turn back he'll ran away from me.. It's the year were a serial killer was hunting girls.. I was scared... That day a very special day. I saw him coming back to me.. I ran from there.. hid behind a tree.. he came running after me and searching me.. I came behind him.. then what only he knows how much it pained from him..
"Yeah that was happened, then I said to her that I'm not a psycho killer.. I came behind her because I love her.. She left me and walked out of the park.. then I gave her the job offer of be my personal assistant.. wow nice idea.. it's been two years.. she is not at all obeying this boss orders." I punched his cheeks playfully..
"Aww.. It's paining.. What you did to me.. Juliet.. I'm not talking about your hands, but I'm talking about your eyes.. I'm dead.." I laughed at him... He is nickel.. my boss.. and my admire.. Son of Mr. Mathew MD of Daily hunt news paper.. I told him about me, if me can love person who didn't love me. Why can't him.. crazy pal.. but the best man I have ever seen.. even I didn't love Sanskaar.. I'm sure will be married.. who knows I might be a mom of his child.. shhh don't tell him this.. then he will start his nonstop drooling..
"Nick.. I need to go soon." I said.. he shot out his head in shock..
"What is occupying you than me." He asked me intake anger..
Ohh I didn't tell him about Sanskaar.. I thought he'll get possessive of me... But I have to tell him now..
"He is here." I said without looking at him..
"That Romeo of yours." I nodded my head..
"Ohh man.. I was happy that I didn't have any competitors.. but now.." he was sounded little disappointed.. "When he came here.? What the hell he is doing here.?" I glowered at him..
"Sorry.. jealous took over me." He is wiping his face..
I told him everything..
"Okay I must accept the fact.. he needs you.." I smiled at him... And pinched his cheeks with my fingers..
"I see you tomorrow." I run to my love.. it's been totally eight hours.. I haven't seen him..
I opened the door walked in.. He is there reading book.. wow.. not bad.. I thought to myself..
"Hey Sanskaar.." with a smile I walked across his bed.. placed an Acacia Yellow flower on the table.. Im too busy in replacing the fresh flower into the vase..
"What are you doing.?" I shifted my head towards him..
"Arranging the flower." I raised by raising my eyebrows..
"To whom.?"
"For you.!!"
"Acacia that too yellow.."
"It look beautiful and smells good."
"You know what it mean for."
I pursed my lips.. "Nope... I don't know that.. flowers have meanings.." he smiled... He... Smiled at me.. in this twenty days.. ohh god I'm flying... Angels are wearing white frock tuning violins and running around me..
"Yeah they have... and this Acacia is for Concealed or hidden love." I dropped my jaws.. unknowingly I said my love to him.. What he going to do... Ohh god..
"Do you love me.."I joined my dropped jaws.. shook my head vigorously... First in yes... Then in no...
*I want to say yes, louder; dear!! If you want me to..*
"You're funny." He is laughing... Just then jiju entered in along with the doctor... We walked out leaving doctor with him..
*Your smile is the constant reminder of my existence.*
"Thanks Swara.. he is smiling after six months.." he had tears in his eyes.. making me emotional...
"It's my duty jiju... I'm gifted to do." I hugged him...
Later doctor came out... Jiju walked to his cabin.. I entered into his room... He is wearing his shirt.. My eyes fell on his chest where I found a burned marks buried under his hairs..
"What was that..?" He didn't say a word instead he made himself sit on the bed.. I didn't ask more..
"I want you to meet one person.." I said by taking my seat on the couch..
"Who?" He asked.
"Hmmm... My boyfriend." I can see that he is not happy...
"What if I don't want to.?" He gritted..
I got a call from Pete.. I attend the call instead of answering him.. I didn't say a word I cut the call..
"You can't say no.." I got up from the couch and walked towards the door... "Because he is here." With that I opened the door..
"Hey beautiful..!!" Pete walked in..
"Hi dude.. what's up.?" He is bewildered.. by Pete is action.. he walked towards him Voluntarily shook his hands with him.. walked towards me.. He pulled me down kissed me on my cheeks...
"You're still in your office suit.. why baby you didn't visit your home.." he kissed me on my other cheek...
"I have to.." I said.. by standing upright..
"Shall I visit you tonight." I smiled..
"No.. I know you have your exams tomorrow.. be a good boy.. I want you to score good marks in internal.." he pursed his lips.. I walked towards the couch.. along with him.. we both seated on the couch..
"Soo Sanskaar this is my boyfriend.. Pete.." he showed his cheek.. I kissed him..
"What's his age.?" He asked me with a killer look on his eyes..
"Eight dude... Why.? You have any problem. Me romancing with this beauty. In front of you.." I laughed seeing the in-building fire in between these two...
"Ohh baby..!! are you cheating me.?" Pete asked me..
"Aww baby.. are you doubting me.." I acted crying...
"No no baby.. I'm not.. seeing him." He pointed him who is nearly on the verge of loosing his patients.. "I thought... Okay where is our engagement ring.." he asked me..
I searched the ring in my bag.. "Gotcha.!!!" I showed it to him..
"What happened..?"
"It tore.." I showed a chocolate wrapper to him.. he took it from me.. he mended it with a tape.. he made me wear it again..
"Don't do it again." He warned me... he turned towards him... "He might look handsome... If I grow to his age.. I'll be look more handsome than him." He laughed for his comments over him.. I kissed Pete on his fully shaved head..
"How many times I have to tell you.. don't do this." He chaffed at me...
I walked towards the door in response of the knock.. I opened the door..
"Hey Swara.." Mrs Pam walked in..
"Hello sir." She greeted him...
"Ohh mom.. I'll come later.." Pete mumbled.
"It's time, Pete.. Doctor is waiting for you."
"Mom." Seeing his mom's glower he walked out.. passing a kiss at me..
He again walked in.. "Hey dude.. get well soon.. I can't share Swara's time for me with you.." he went out...
"What is with him.?" Sanskaar asked Mrs.pam.
"Metastasis.. advanced stage." with a smile she left...
I walked her to doors.. "Thank you Swara.." she hugged me.. and went...
"What is Metastasis.?" Before I close the door he shoot me with his question...
"Cancer. Metastasis is a cancer cells which spread cancer from one organ or part of the body to another without being directly connected with it." I can't control my tears I walked out... Leaving him alone..
After few minutes I entered in.. I saw him with tears...
"What happened..?" I asked him
"He is just a kid... Why god is soo cruel.?" He is wiping his tears..
"He is not cruel Sanskaar.. he testing us... Of we are loosing our hope on him or not.. I never lost my hope in him.. nor Pete he is a big devotee of Jesus Christ." I smiled at him..
"Did he knows that.." he stopped when tears chocking him.. "He going to die." I silently gave a nod..
He burst out into a sob... I let him cry... Slowly sob turned into a weeping...
"How he can be soo normal and enthusiastic." He nagged.
"As my sufferings mounted I soon realized that there were two ways in which I could respond to my situation -- either to react with bitterness or seek to transform the suffering into a creative force. I decided to follow the latter course. It is Martin Luther King Jr. Words.. He said this to me... When I can't bear my pain.. He boosted me Sanskaar... I know him for the past three years.. you know I lost interest in my life a long back ago.. He gave me courage to fight the life... He is just eight Sanskaar, if he can.. why can't us.!!" Tears were becoming uncontrollable in our eyes.. "He taught me live my life; cheerfully."
"He hate empathy... You know what.. he has a big dream about his life.. one is. He wants a girlfriend for his own.. he asked me I said yes. I badly want you to meet him.. he is an epitome of courage." I smiled in between my tears.. he reciprocated that smile to me..
*I want to born as your tears in my next birth. So that I can born in your eyes, live in your cheeks, die in your lips.*
Jiju came in.. we wiped out tears.. He said that doctors said that he can be discharged tomorrow... But he have to continue with his medication... He is all smiling...
*"Love is like a child, That longs for everything it can come by" soo that I want more from you.*
