I am coming here after really long time. Can't help it, I have been really busy.

So, the mystery have been revealed, Finally!

Amaira is Sharon's half sister. I have not thought of it. You really have surprised me here.

It's baby girl, Swayam's Princess.! Beautiful name- "Saira" :D

I am soo happy finally the air misunderstanding and tension between Swaron is all cleared.

Maybe with the last update, Sharon forgives Daddy Rai-Prakash soon and Amaira get well soon, so that I can get to read some Swaron Moment with their cute little daughter.

The emotions throughout the update was very well penned.

Missed reading your updates, next time will try to reply soon.

Loved, loved, loved it.😃

Ciao

-Riya (:

Thanks Shivani. It was great to see you after a long time. Maybe your prediction will come true or maybe I would just be Swayam 😉

<font size="3" face="Times New Roman, Times, serif">Firstly my God Gautum's story is heartbreaking, i think the idea of finding your parents being in love with someone else is just so heartbreaking as a child, but then you think how heart breaking must it be for them. Their story just really stung in my heart, not being able to marry someone you want and then marrying someone else for companionship. It doesn't get easier, and then that brief union that resulted in Amira, it just became more heart breaking line by line as i read along. Maybe i am looking at it too intensly but somewhere deep down Gautum's story is so connectable.</font>

<font size="3" face="Times New Roman, Times, serif">But you took it a notch higher, Amira's border line personality disorder made things so much more complicated, it is saddening that she never had someone to guid her through all these feelings much earlier in her life. Her relationship with Swayam is endearing but at the same time so sad that it is the only other relationship she has. I could go on forever with this chapter because i love it so much.</font>

<font size="3" face="Times New Roman, Times, serif">Every piece you write its no less than perfection <3</font>

Thank you so so so so much Neet for replying like this. I read it so many times I cant tell you. You saw everything I wanted to tell in the chapter. Gautam's story is something so many of us face. His life wasnt easy at all but he never let it come in way for Sharon. He is not the most righteous man out there but he was brave.

aswom story i just complete readind tis d way u write is nice.. character of gautam nd his story was written beautifully.. many faces this..


update soon

CHAPTER TWENYY TWO
Borderline Disorder. Sharon had heard nothing like that before. Heck, she didn't even know there was anything as such before a moment. But one thing she was sure of and that it was nothing pleasant."What is this all about?"Sharon asked in a low voice."It's a disorder. It comes from a number of reasons but in case of Amaira, it's because of an unstable childhood. She had a lack of relationships and family for most of her life, it can even turn suicidal. As I said people who have it feel everything in extremes. Be it happiness or sadness, grief or pain. It was kind of in control while Pallavi was alive. She took good care of her, maybe because she always knew how to handle her but I, I knew nothing about Amaira so when I brought her here with me, it all got worse and for a long time I couldn't figure out what was wrong with her.""Do you think she blames you?""She does not. And that hurts me so much because she should. Because I am the only reason why she never had a proper family. But Pallavi had always put me across in front of her like a loving and caring father and she believed in her mother."Gautam heaved a heavy sigh as silence fell in the room again. Sharon's head was racing with thoughts. It was just a matter of second when she starts about thinking about a question and another popped up. She was in distress with the heaps of these new information, she couldn't help but felt disturbed. Guatam's voice brought her back from her world of thoughts."Sharon, I know it's all too much. But please try not to judge me. I love you a lot, you have been my only source of happiness in my darkest times. Please Sharon I never meant to hurt your mother or you or anyone for that matter but everything just complicated. My life hasn't been the most beautiful one but you have been that silver lining for which I thank my life every day."Sharon looked at her father. She tried to remember the time when she had seen him so broken and helpless. She thought about her wedding, her mother's death, the time when his father was extremely sad two years ago and the reason of which she never knew until now which turned out to be the death of his love of the life but she realized he hasn't never been this broken. His face looked older than his age in that moment. Does grief do that to you? She wanted to tell him something, stop him from crying maybe or maybe she just wanted to not see him at that moment but all she did was put her hand on his shoulder and squeeze it. She was crying to see her favorite old man injured but she couldn't help him because something inside her was in pain too and she knew she wouldn't be able to hold on for long.With a last look at his father she got up and walked out of the study closing the door behind her and leaving a torn old man inside.She came out to the drawing room with heavy steps when she heard a laughter filling her ears. It was sweet, carefree and the happiness in that laugh stung her in her current situation. She turned to see the source of it and found Amaira sitting on the floor and playing with Saira as Swayam adored both of them with a smile which refused to reach his eyes."Jiju she is just so cute. I wish I could be with her all the time. You and Sharon Di are so lucky, I swear." Amaira chirped happily looking at him.Normally, Swayam would have said "You can come anytime you wish for and play with her. After all you are her Aunt." But he didn't. He just smiled. And Sharon knew he has left this decision on her."Swayam!" She called for him in a cracking voice and Swayam hurried up to her at the first look. Amaira stopped laughing as she saw Sharon. Her eyes welled up as Sharon looked at her, maybe the slap was something she still hadn't been able to forget. It was wrong on Sharon's part to do that, the sudden guilt made her avert her gaze from Amaira and she just hid herself in Swayam's arms as her eyes flowed tears. ************"I don't know how to react Swayam!" Sharon said looking at her husband as he told her all about those pictures, that night and how Piya used it against him."I know! I know it's all too much for you." Swayam sympathized with her as he wiped her tears."You faced so much of it alone and I. . . I just added up to your tensions in all these months." Sharon felt disgusted but Swayam cupped her face in his hands stopping her from going on any unnecessary guilt trip."Sharon we both have gone through enough torture in the past and we both had reasons to endure them. But now it's gone and I don't want you to torture yourself now thinking about it because it wasn't your fault, you knew nothing and I kept so many things from you. It was a terrible phase Sharon but it's gone now. We have been through that storm and what is important is we survived it, we were strong enough to survive it and stand together like always." Swayam explained and Sharon cried hugging him tightly. They sat like that for a long time not saying a word but their minds kept on running for stillness which seemed close yet afar."Would you not ask me about what I feel about Papa?""No! It should be your decision, Sharon. And whatever it will be I will support you!" Swayam stated firmly and softly."I don't know Swayam. I suddenly feel like I haven't known him at all. Like he is a completely new person. My dad never loved my mom. . .My Ma never knew that he had a child from someone else. Is it fair?" She looked at Swayam for an answer, he didn't say anything. She searched his eyes but they didn't give away anything. "Swayam, I don't know how to go ahead? I don't know what I feel! It's all so complicated!""Do you hate your father?" His question was sharp even if the tone wasn't.The question caught her off guard. Did she hate her father?She knew the answer and it was No. She denied shaking her head but sighed."The question isn't that if I hate my father, the question is do I love him? Can I see him just like the way I did before knowing all this?"Sharon's questions were reflecting something which, even though unlikely amused Swayam to an extent. It all hadn't really gone down well with Sharon surely but for all different reasons than Swayam had expected. But he didn't want to mention any sort of such things to her right now."He was my hero Swayam. Heroes are supposed to be perfect; they are always on the right side, but Papa. . ." Tears welled up in her eyes as she broke once again."Sharon,I can give you advice but my opinion doesn't matter here because anything and everything should come straight from your heart. If your heart feels stained and broken then my words aren't going to take that way when you look into your father's eyes. But I will still say this much that Sharon Heroes are perfect, but your father isn't a hero he is a human, as much human as you and me. You saw him as perfection and tried to be that for you always. Sharon, I won't preach you at what you should do but take every decision from your heart." Sharon looked into Swayam's eyes and nodded as he kissed her forehead before taking her in his arms. ***************Sharon was holding Saira as she slept in her mother's arms. It felt surreal to her. At times it all felt unbelievable to her that she has nurtured this little bundle of joy within her and has brought her into this world. She was the one who managed to bring smile on her face amidst all the tensions around her. She looked at her angelic sweet face for a long time till her eye dropped a tear. A weird sense of a huge responsibility took her under its wraps and she realized how since childhood she wanted to feel like this. She remembered how she used to trouble her mother with her non-ending plea for a sibling."Mom please! Let's go to Shimla Market na. Simran's mother just gifted her baby brother. I also want a sister mom please!" Sharon recalled her little innocent self and smiled.Her mother could never gift her a sibling of course because she died young. She always imagined how it would be to fight with a sibling for a toy or a book or to give away orders being the big one. She always had everything to herself but she wished if she had someone with whom she could share things too. At times, being the only child was lonely for her especially after her mother's death. It wasn't like her father didn't love her enough but it wasn't possible for him to be with her all the time. In those times she did feel lonely. Now, after all these years she suddenly has a sister, the kind of sister who share the same blood and the kind of sister who actually respects her like an elder sister and who is craving for her companionship, her love, her help.It made her heart flutter for a moment. She recalled all the instances she had shared with Amaira. There weren't enough. Just two of them. On the first instance she had slapped her and on the second after knowing everything she had seen the craving in her eyes, the longing for acceptance, the ache to be forgiven even though she wasn't at fault. Sharon laid Saira back in her cot covering her with a duet while her mind contemplated. Can't she just accept her as her sister? All the doubts, all the questions were clear now, then why does she have to deny Amaira anything?The door knob opened as Swayam entered the room."Feel like coming out? You have been here in the room all day!""Where are Dad and Amaira?""Outside. Sharon, Dad is thinking of going back to States with Amaira. I mean she can of course be treated here in Mumbai but he thinks. . ." Swayam didn't know how to put the hard part in words so he just decided to leave the sentence midway."I have made my decision anyway." Sharon said with a straight face looking at him as he took a heavy breath."And I am always going to support you with all your decisions." Swayam said and took her hand in his as they walked out. *****************Gautam stood up at once seeing Sharon. She looked at him and was shocked to see him so disheveled. But she saw a strange peace on his face, maybe he finally felt free of the guilt that has caged him all his life."Sharon. . .""This is already hard Dad! Don't make it any harder please!"She turned to Amaira and said "Hi! I am Sharon!""I . . . I know!" Amaira uttered meekly."I am sorry for the other day.I shouldn't have slapped you like that. I. . . I was. . ""Di! Di please. . ." She abruptly stopped as she realized Sharon may not like being called herself as "Di" by her. " Sorry!" She said tearing her gaze away from Sharon's face in nervousness.Sharon didn't know how to address this situation, but she didn't mind being called like that. If anything it just gave her some pleasure."You can call me that!" She stated reluctantly.Amaira's face displayed a range of emotions in that second from shocked to fear to happiness."Really? I have so longed to call you that and meet you. I am so happy!" She hugged her in excitement and Sharon didn't know what to do for a moment. She looked at Swayam who smiled and prompted Sharon to hug her back. She did so slowly and weirdly felt good about it."I never knew you were somewhere out there, as in I had a sister but you always knew. You know I don't. . .""I know Di! I know it's so difficult for you but please don't worry I will never harm you in any way I promise. You just acknowledged me that's so much for me. You can't even imagine. I thought I would never be able to meet you." Amaira cried in happiness and Sharon realized how sensitive she was and what Swayam and her father meant when they said she feels everything in extremes. Sharon smiled as she wiped her tears. "Thank you Sharon for accepting Amaira." Gautam's voice filled her ears and she just nodded meekly. She still wasn't sure of her actions. She knew this step was right but also knew she was seeing Amaira from a different perspective contrary to what her father and Amira herself believed. She looked at Swayam who had a faint smile on his face but she felt like he could see through all her emotions and like he knew. In a way it was relieving for her. ****************It was night time when her father walked up to her as Swayam and Amaira were playing with Saira. They seemed to share a true brother and sister in law bond. She hoped she would be able to confide in Amaira as a sister too. For now she was trying to just befriend her."Sharon!" Gautam broke her trance as he sat beside her."Dad!"There was silence for a few moments till Sharon started speaking."I know Dad whatever happened in your life was tragic and complicated. You meant well for us, for mom and me but I don't know Dad, something is bothering me, something is there which is not letting me to see you as the person I have always seen. I don't hate you I really don't but I gotta figure it out if I still love you. I don't want to break you but I think I will need time to get over all this. This whole year, it's been exhausting for me emotionally and I think I really need some break from all of this to think clearly. I just want to be with my family." She looked at her father who wasn't looking at her but she could make out that he was crying. It broke her. She held her father's hand and wiped his tears."Dad please! I just want to see my father in you. I don't want to treat you like any other person. Dad right now I see you as Amaira's father, as a person who didn't love my mother, as a person who may have cheated her, as a person who was responsible for so much trouble in my marriage and I don't like this feeling. I really need to get past this and that cannot happen easily. I don't hate you but this is not the time when I want to think any of this, I just had a daughter, I have just got my husband back and I want to endeavor this happiness. They will give me strength, they will heal me and maybe then I would be able to tell if all this has left any scars on me or not.""Sharon! Just remember your father loved you, loves you and will always love you. I wish all the good things for you and I am ready to wait. I cannot be greedy at this point of time right? I mean I kept you in dark for such a long time, maybe this is my punishment for doing that to you.""No. No. No! Don't talk like that Dad!""I will just hope please forgive me if you can!" Gautam cried and Sharon hugged her father tightly. She wished she could save him from this but she couldn't. She did need time. *************Sharon and Swayam were at the airport. Gautam was going to U.S. for some time. He would have taken Amaira with himself too but Sharon asked her to stay with her surprising Swayam and him. Her argument was she can do her creative writing course here and as well get treated properly."Take Care Dad! I will miss you. Come back soon." Amaira hugged him."I will." He caressed her head as Sharon watched them. She was just starting to feel something weird when Gautam called her to and hugged both the girls. He came upto Swayam and took Saira in his arms and kissed her on her forehead. Leaving her was the most difficult of all."Thank You Swayam for everything you did for me.""Come On Dad please! You don't say such stuff to your son." Swayam rubbished his words and hugged him. They all bade him goodbyes as he parted. ***********Coming out of the airport in the car Sharon asked Swayam for his phone and sent a message from it to someone and then deleted it. Swayam had no idea she was going to bring another literal storm for him. She giggled imagining his situation. Amaira was sitting in the backseat with Saira in her arms. The way she loved Saira was quite astonishing for her but she felt happy looking at them. Swayam took so much of pain to give her this happiness. All of a sudden she realized she hadn't said something to Swayam in months. It felt so necessary to tell him that suddenly so she turned to him and said"Swayam, I love you.""I love you too Sharon." He replied with a dazzling smile on his face and love in his eyes.The sun was shining brightly and everything was feeling beautiful to her as she looked out of the window. She was feeling light and alive. Everything was good as Swayam's phone beeped and she saw the reply to her sent message"I AM GOING TO KILL YOU. JUST WAIT AND WATCH."It was still not the end.

Okay! Hello! How have you been? Hopefully good yeah! Well same banner because I felt it was connected and s continuation of the previous chapter!

And many of you pointed out about Saira being a mix of Sahir and Kaira but I want to clear thats not the case. I am kind of not a supporter of this so well Saira is just Saira.

And well this is ofcourse the last chapter of this fiction but well I will be giving an epilouge in a week. So yeah! Give a lot of LONG comments coz I love them :)

What wonderful timing!

Wonderful timing cuz I had just finished with my first entrance exam yesterday and came home to your chapter, albeit the last one. And what a wonderful chapter it was.

Brilliant writing Chitra. There was such an impeccable balance in it, not too emotional but not passive either. I am impressed. I'm not sure of what exactly stood out (perhaps the realistic approach) but boy am I impressed.

I have a feeling the text is from Rey. 😆

Wow. The end of Broken Wings. This has been a superb journey Chi, thanks. 🤗

Also, sorry. I didn't realise you posted your updates from your mobile. I know how much of a pain it is to format through mobile. -.-
