Here's Part 5
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
New York,U.S.A
Gayratri was doing her morning "riyaz". Yes Gayatri had been inherited with her mother as well as her Masi's singing skills.Infact in her case she was step further.She could play both Sitar and Guitar.She played both of them alternatively.Today it was the sitar.Sanskaar and Swara's morning started this way-melodious voice of their daughter.Gayatri and Rohan were all round children.They both were straight A's students-not a complain from school but they both also excelled in other things.Rohan loved sports whereas Gayatri loved music.Gayatri aspired to be a mechanical engineer whereas Rohan wanted to be a lawyer.They had inherited Swara and Saanskaar's complete traits-Observing nature,could not stand medieval talks,always respected elders and ofcourse were the apple of their parents eyes.
Sanskaar- Shona seriously Gayatri ki awaaz agar din mei na suno to din accha nai jaata hai.She has inherited her music skills from you.
Swara-Yeh toh sach hai.Uski awwz sun kar dimaag ki saari stress,tension sab durr bhaag jata hai.
Sanskaar-Well Mrs Maheshwari thodi si credit khud bhi lijye,you have trained her well with Guitar whereas Pari bhabhi has trained her well with Sitar.
(Meanwhile doorbell rings and it is Swara's business partner Ishaani Parekh at the door.She was Swara's best friend as well as business partner.Ishaani was a single mother and her daughter Tara was Gayatri's best friend)
Gayatri-Hi aunty kaisi hai aap ???
Ishaani-I am absolutely fine beta.Aapki mumma kaha hai ? I really needed to talk to her its important.
Swara-Kya baat hai madam aaj subah subah.All ok na ???
Ishaani-Ok Ok ye tum mujhse pooch rahi ho ??? Tumne kuch ok rakha hi kaha hai Shona.
Swara-Aisa kya kiya hai maine Ishaani.Did I commit some mistake in work ??
Ishaani-Arre Shona tumne aisa kaam kiya hai jo koi soch bhi nai sakta tha.
Sanskaar-Ishaani you are scaring us kya hua hai ??
Ishaani-Sanskaar tumhari biwi ko International Jewellery Foundation ne honour karne ka decision liya hai-For her outstanding contribution to the field of designing.
Shona-Are you serious tum mazak to nahi kar rahi ho na Ishaani ?
Ishaani-Aisa bhi koi mazak karta hai kya.Gayatri jaldi Rohan ko bulao our sweets se celebrate karo guys your mother is officially one of the most prominent Jewellery designer all around the world.
Gayatri-Yay Mom congratulations.I am so very proud of you.(Hugs her tightly)
Rohan-Arre akele akele mom ko kyu hug kiya jaa raha ha ?aur woh bhi mujhe chod kar 😆😆...
Gayatri-Rohan Mom is going to get a award.
Rohan-Congrats Mom.I am so very very happy for you.(Also hugs her.)
Sanskaar-Guys maine abhi tak congratulate nahi kiya hai.Make some space.
Rohan-Dad aapki baari baad mai.First she is our Momzie than your wife.😆
Sanskaar-Ajeeb hai dad ko hi out kar rahe ho. 😆
Gayatri-Oh Dad donot pout aap yaha aa jao.Space hi space hai.😆...
Swara-Agar hug session ho gaya hai guys toh Ishaani se baaki ke details pooch lu ceremony ke ???
Sanskaar-Yes madam carry on.(Whispers to her)Mera congratulations baaki hai Mrs Maheshwari. 😳
Swara-Ha Ishaani batao aage.
Ishaani-Ok Shona listen up.Ye award ceremony 1 week baad hai and Kolkatta mai hai so you will have to go down with your entire family and collect the award from there.I will be there along with Dad present as well.
(Swara's smile diminishes and this does not go unnoticed by Gayatri,Rohan and Sanskaar.However Sanskaar has decided that no more hw will allow anybody to ruin his family's happiness)
Sanskaar-Ishaani tum itinerary final kar lo we will start packing our bags.Should not take much time.Aur hotel reservations ke liye hard work mat karna actually our family stays there so will reside there.
Ishaani-Ok Shona tum bilkul chinta mat karo ok.Donot be nervous.I am there with You.Mai nikal ti hu hum sab ke reservations bhi karvane hai.
Sanskaar-Rohan,Gayatri go upstairs and start packing and yes abhi Vivaan ko kuch mat batana I will first talk to Adarsh bhai and Pari bhabhi.
Rohan-Ok dad donot worry hum kissi ko nahi batye ge.
Swara-ye kya tha Sanskaar.Tum ne soch bhi kaisi liya ke mai oos sher mai,us ghar mei Ragini ki shakal dekhne jao gi bhi.I would have preferred to let the award go rather than ging back there aagin.It gets suffocating with Ragini and Daadi maa hounding my head.
Sanskaar-Shona you need to get over Ragini and Dadi maa.I am not saying go and hug her and forgive her right away but you need closure for both of them.You have been carrying around this pressure for a long time now. Sharmishtha ma would have never allowed you to live this way.
Swara-(Starts crying)-I could not help her Sanskaar.I could not help my own mother.I pushed her into that hell hole.I insisted her to live with Dadi maa and Dada ji and than she got caught p in this whole mess of me and Ragini.What kind of daughter I was to her ?
Sanskaar-Shh Shona stop crying... you were the best daughter anybody could ask for.You were brought up without a father and yet you turned out to be this amazing human being.You know the way you are raising Rohan and Gayatri Sharmishtha ma would have been so proud of you.You are the best mother and you were a perfect daughter to your mother and you are to your father.(He hugs her)I cannot let you sacrifice anymore than you have Shona.You will receive this award with the entire family present and you will let go of this demons of past of Ragini and Daadi ma.You are my Shona.
And BTW Mrs Maheshwari Congratulations for your achievement.I am so amazingly proud of you.(Kisses on her cheek)I love you so very much.
Swara-Sanskaar ye sab kuch tumhare aur family ke support ke bagaire nahi hota.I could not have asked for more in my life.I love you too.
Sanskaar-Aab tum jaldi se packng karo I will call Adarsh bhaiyya and give him the good news dekhna sab log khushi ke maare idhar oodhar bhagege.
Kolkatta,India(Night time)
Adarsh and Pari had been discussing about morning's hula bola.How many times had he warned Laksh and Ragini not to interfere with Shona's matter.They both had ruined enough matters already.Ragini and Laksh had played enough with Shona and Sanskaar's life not they were repenting but what was the use.Ragini's mistakes had cost both her and Shona their mother.And Laksh had forever lost his brother and ofcourse the children's respect as well.Suddenly phone ringed and it brought Pari and Adarsh out of their conversation.
Adarsh-Sanskaar woh bhi is time par.I hope sab theek ho.Ha Sanskaar kya hua all ok.??
Sanskaar-Yes bhai all ok not just ok but super cool.Bhai aap phone speaker pe rakhye na taki bhabhi ko bhi sunai de.
Adarsh-Ok Bol call is on speaker kya hua.Itna khush sound kar raha hai.
Sanskaar-Bhai International Jewellery Foundation wants to felicitate Swara with a award for her contribution to the field of designing.
Adarsh and Pari (Together)-Oh My God.
Pari-Sanskaar bhai ye to kitni khushi ki baat hogi.Shona ko hamari taraf se congratulate kar dena.
Adarsh-Ha Sanskaar aakhir uski itni saalo ki mehnat rang la rahi hai yaar.Everybody is going to be so proud of her especially papa.Unhe sabse zyada khushi hogi ye sun kar.Congratulate her from us hum use jald se jald call karege.
Sankaar-Bhai aur Pari agar mai kahu ke aap dono kya pura family use khus wish kar sakta hai to kya kahege aap.???
Adarsh-How is it possible Sanskaar unless...function India mei hai kya ???(He asked Excitedly.)
Sanskaar-Yes bhai Hum charo jan Kolkatta aane ke liye jald nikal rahe can you just inform the family ?
Adarsh-Of course kar dungs.Aur ha mujhe aapni itinerary mail kar dena mai tum logo ko lene aa jao ga ok.
Sanskaar-Ok bhai.Aab mai phone rakhta hu baccho ka bhi packing karna hai.
Pari-Ok bye bhaiya.
Adarsh-Pari tum sab ko hall mei ikhatta karo.Bahut time baad ghar mei aisi good news aayi hi.
Pari-Ok.
(Everybody had assembled in the MM hall.Ragini and Laksh were confused pari bhabhi was looking so excited,Sujata chachi was gleeming with pride...They were so very confused.DP and AP came followed by Vivaan who did not seem to have a clue)
DP- Adarsh Pari aisi kya baat hai jo tumne hume yaha bulaya hai.
AP- Ha beta kya baat hai ??
Ragini-bhabhi sab theek to hai na ??
Pari-Ek bahut badi good news hai.Sanskaar bhai ka phone tha.Shona ko International Jewellery Foundation ne award ke ssath felicitate karne ka faisla kiya hai for her contribution to the field of designing.Aur dusri good news ye hai ki woh function Kolkatta mai hai toh Sanskaar bhai aur Shona baccho ke saath India aa rahe he.
To say that everybody was happy was less.Everybody was escastic tat their "Bahu"had wom such a huge honour.Sujata was feeling so much pride that along with her son,her daughter-in-law was also advancing and progressing in her work.DP felt so happy.He felt happy as if his own daughter had won it ofcourse Swara was his daughter but alas e had not given any happy memory to the girl.His whole family was her culprit.Ragini was very happy for her sister.She had often heard from Vivaan that Swara was a very successful designer but this was compltely new for her.
Everybody distributed their work for coming day or two and went to their respective rooms.Ragini however was pale faced ever since she heard that Swara and Sasnkaar weere coming to India and it did not go unnoticed by Laksh.
Lash-Kya baat hai Ragini tum khush nahi ho Swara ke liye. ??
Ragini-Nahi Laksh aisi ko baat nahi hai.Hum bahut khsh hai uske ke liye.Par kya aapko yaad nahi pichli baar jab Swara ma ke guzar jaane ke waqt yaha aayi thi to kya hua tha.
Laksh too got pale hearing that.Boy it was not good.That was the day he had learnt that Swara Sanskaar Maheshwari could hate a person too.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Pre-cap------Light into events 13 years ago-Sharmshtha's death-Swara's last face to face meeting with Ragini.
So here is part 5.Enjoy.
