Chapter 2:-
Sharmishta and dida smiled through their tears as Sanskaar place his palm in swara's one promising her he would never leave her and they both sat in the mandap
Swara turned behind one last time looking at Lakshya thinking there's still hope...he will still stop her and believe her but alas he left with Ragini angrily, he din't even bother to try once...her tears continued wetting her cheeks as she thought about their beautiful moment, not only her love but lakshya was her friend...he knew her before Ragini still couldn't believe her...she looked at sanskaar listening to the wedding mantra carefully and thought if she was doing it right , if Lakshya the one she loved soo much couldn't believe her how will Sanskaar???
Right then her eyes met his, He lifted a pinch of vermillion to her hairs parting ...keeping their eyes locked, though it din't make her blush like a teen the way she always did whenever she looked in lakshya's eyes but she felt protected...she felt he would never harm her not even unknowingly
He took the Mangalsutra to tie it around Swara's neck and bended his lips against her ears and whispered "i dunno what these mantra's say swara but i promise to care and protect you till my last breath"
She was surprised how did he know about what was she thinking
When they got up for the 7 rounds around the fire Sanskaar could see how weak she was still, she was trying hard to be strong and do it for her dida and ma, he slowly turned picking her up her arms
"Areh! what are you doing????!" the priest asked confusingly
"you just said na panditji i need to give my wife care and comfort under every condition, so i am following it, i don't want her hurt anymore" he carefully avoided looking at swara and rest wondering what might they be thinking least did he know they were only thanking God for sending him
"Shomi, i think he will be perfect for our shonu, in a way god did well" dida whispered in Sharmishta's ears
Her own pain vanished fromher heart as she watched her daughter receiving soo much of love
Soon after the priest announced the wedding over, here stood Mrs Swara Sanskaar Maheswari
They stepped out of the mandap taking blessing from dida and sharmishta
Her eyes searched for her father but in vain
"Shona! he will not come" her mother hugged her and cried
"He will maa, the day he will learn the truth he will" she broke the hug wiping her mothers tear
"Sanskar i know this all happened in a rush but...i want ...to" he smiled knowing the exact reason of her fumbling words
"Dida!!" he hugged her, " i know why you are worried but don't be , from today Swara is my responsibility not only Swara but you and maa too, infact i should be thankful to Swara my family deserted me and thanks to her i found another family"
She couldn't help but admire him, he made it all look soo Simple
Time came for her bidaai, they sat in the car and Sanskar drove
She stayed quiet and opened the car's window letting the cold wind blow in her hairs, her mind was rotating around lakshya, her father and Ragini...her heart still ache at their thought but she refused to let her tear flow
" Swara wouldn't you ask where are we going???!" normally he would like silence but right now the silence was only showing how hurt swara was the happy cheerful girl was gone
"I trust you Sanskaar" she whispered unknowingly keeping her eyes out of the car
He looked at her wondering how can someone be so innocent, if you compare Ragini and Swara you will say Ragini is the most innocent but if you will come close, Swara only acts like the grown up mature one inside she was still the innocent side asking for love care and comfort
He stopped the car with a jerk infront of a little house breaking Swara's trail of thought
"we reached??" She questioned looking at sanskar the first time they entered the car
He chuckled looking at her startled expression"she looked soo cute he thought " Yes we are here
She stepped out of the car and found a beautiful house at the view, it had nothing extravagant with it, it was just a small house with a beautiful garden around
"Shall we??!" He asked
While Swara made her way to the entrance admiring the house and the garden
"Waitt!!" He quickly opened the door and ran inside confusing Swara...it was the first time she was finding Sanskaar so excited about something, was this the real Sanskaar
He came back with a bowl of rice, "Okay i am sorry i dunno the right rituals but i remember you have to give a kick on a rice pot and enter" saying so he bent placing the rice bowl down
She slowly lifted her lehenga, kicking the rice bowl...she was amaze by Sanskaar's gestures it was as if to make her feel the most comfortable and she was
"Wow this is beautiful" she whispered as she looked at the house inner decoration
"Well first of all i am very sorry i brought you to this small house, but this is my bachelor den the first house i bought from my salary i love this house a lot Swara, i build it small because i had no hope of someone else staying with me here, i din't want to have a big house in which my own voice will echo"
His words made her realize he was as lonely as she was
She forwarded and held his hands, it was just natural no akwardness , "Sanskaar though small this house is beautiful i love it , and i just can't get over it" he was sure she was true he could see it in her eyes and her touch it was soft against his hands
"But there's a problem!"he said with a straight expression
"Whats that???"
"There's only one bedroom here!" he was tense what will she think about him, after all the house he has he chose to bring her to a house where there's only one bedroom
"We can always shift youknow!" he quickly ended his line praying she wouldn't misunderstand him
"Sanskaar , relax ...i don't mind sharing the bedroom with you beside i love this house" she smiled reassuring him and asked for the bedroom to change
"Swara i want to look after you always that's the reason i brought you here" he thought
He entered his room and watched Swara changed into her nightdress and she was sitting on the bed with her head on her knees and her legs against her chest
She was crying, he was confuse whether to go and comfort or let her cry and lighten her heart
As she heard Sanskar's step she quickly wiped her eyes
"Swara you don't have to hide your tears from me!" he sat infront of her
"Sanskaar i don't feel bad for what Ragini did with me but Lakshya and baba???? and ma ??? i couldn't even face her!" She continued crying while he cupped her cheeks wiping it with his thumbs
"Swara as far as i know truth will surely come out one day and Ma is not at all angry at you, you know her happiness lies in yours ...if you will cry she willnot be happy either, and me being your bestfriend will be always with you supporting you!" he forwarded bending his lips on her forehead kissing her, it was just a kiss to express affection
and that's it no more words had to be said, he made her lie on her back and asked her to close her eyes, he so knew she needed rest, he pulled the blanket securely on her and caressed her hairs till she drifted asleep
He felt a strange urge to drop another kiss on her forehead but ignored it and walked to his side of bed,holding the ac remote and setting it below the room temperature, and found Swara shivering , he quickly placed his hands on her forehead checking if shes having fever but realized it was the ac, without a second thought he switched it off and lay next to her making sure not to disturb her, he din't know when he slept and his hands held Swara's one protectively even while sleeping
