Swayam's body raged with anger. How could someone make these type of comments about his little sister? How could someone compare her to Sharon? Taani was beautiful and she didn't need to change to prove that. She was such a good GS and in what world does a GS have to be a dancer to take a dance team to a competition.
Swayam grabbed the lamp sitting on the side table beside him and threw at the ground in frustration. He was angry at everyone for hurting his sister. But moreover he was angry at himself for not being there for her. For, shouting at her, for ignoring her. He got up and walked towards Taani's room. He had to apologize, he just had to. He knocked on the door
Swayam – Taani
Taani heard Swayam's voice outside, and anger ran through her veins. She still couldn't believe that her own brother would shout at her and accuse her because she had suggested giving the CS post to someone else. Did she really have no value in his life? With these thoughts running through her mind, Taani started to cry harder, hoping somehow all the hurt would run out of her with the tears.
Swayam couldn't take the silence. He barged into the room but what he saw made him instantly stop. There sat his little sister, on the floors with her head in her knees, crying her eyes out. Guily and Shame took over him. He ran towards her and pulled her into a hug.
Taani felt arms wrap around her and in an instant she knew it was Swayam. He pushed him off and stood up, wiping away her tears. Swayam, obviously hurt by his sister's action stood up too.
Swayam- Taani listen, I know what I've done these past few days isn't right. I'm so sorry Taani, I'm so sorry. You're my little sister and I love you. I'm sorry for shouting at you, not listening to you, blaming you, and not being there for you. I didn't know that people were making such comment abou-
Taani put her hand up signaling her brother to stop talking. Swayam was stunned at Taani's reaction. He knew she was mad but not this mad.
Taani – What did you think, you could just come into my room, apologize and everything would be okay? Well, if that's what you thought, then I'm sorry to say you thought wrong. You know what Swayam? Out of all the people in this world, I was certain; you would be one of those people who never hurt me. But I guess life played an ugly twist. You were the one who hurt me the most. I still can't believe that you're my brother. At first, your anger was justified and I thought with time, you would come and try to talk to me but you didn't. You just shouted at me without looking at the whole situation. You shouted at me because I told Sharon that if she wasn't being able to handle her duties, I would find someone who could. Maybe, I shouldn't have told you that I was only talking to you because you were ACS but you didn't have to shout at me and humiliate me.
Swayam looked down in guilt, but at the same time he felt a pang in his heart. Taani had called him Swayam, she hadn't called him bhai.
Swayam – Swayam?
Taani – Yeah, isn't that your name Mr. Swayam Shekhawat?
Swayam felt another pang in his chest. Had he really destroyed their relationship?
Swayam – I know Taani, I was wrong but it was only because Sharo-
Taani once again cut him off
Taani – Yes, I know you're world revolves around Sharon. I know and I understand. Ok Ignore that fact, but you let all your friends say those type of things about me, you let them laugh at me? What kind of brother does that? If that's the real you, then it's great to know.
Swayam – But Taani
Taani- I'm honestly happy for you, that you've found love, you've found friends. But to get so obsessed with the girl you love that you don't see the damage you're doing to others is horrible. That day when I was crying my eyes out in the washroom, I had expected you to come, I wanted you to come but no you sent Rey and you yourself went to Sharon's house. So congratulations Swayam, you have proven yourself to be a perfect lover and a perfect friend but at the same time, you proved yourself to be the worst brother any sister could ask for. And I really don't even care anymore, I don't have the energy or the time to care but you better step back from your perfect world long enough to see the damage that will always be right behind you.
With that, Taani ran towards the bathroom and locked herself in there. Swayam was left there shocked, hurt, guilty and angry. He was disgusted with himself. What had he done? He had pushed away, one of the most important people in his life. His sister. She hated him and there was no one to blame but himself. He turned around walking out of the room but before he left he whispered something, loud enough for Taani to hear.
Swayam – I'm sorry Taani but I will get you back, I promise. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
