Dear Nita,
One quick read - and it was too good. Swara and Sanskaar, sleeping in each other's arms, as they did in their childhood.Day DreamingDay DreamingDay Dreaming.
Will get back for a detailed comment. I can finally sleep in peace now.

Finally I am back to unres'ing- after you update the next chapterCry Finally i got back to replying after i posted the next update😆 ...Given our new sorts of deal where we both fight for most no of res..Please dont be shocked by anything Nyna dear..That what i am trying.😭😭..My Res no is amazingly high now
Dear Nita,
Firstly for proudly displaying my amateur efforts - love you.Well i love you too for such an amazing gift 🤗🤗
This was a quite a crucial chapter, IMO, one that spills over to Chapter 10, in terms of the clarity of the relations (though we have to wait for Chapter 11 for knowing the identity of Ms. X). Finally i answered Miss X question 😆... You felt this chapter was crucial okay 😳..
Sanskaar truly thinks quite ahead, does he not? Even in the early days, much before he acknowledged his growing feelings for Swara, he does display a lot of concern. So we have him training her to be physically fit and mentally able to fight her way out. (and that bit where 'he is used to her saying "I hate you" and simply shrugs it off' - **********sigh******** I find it so irresistible). And fear is the key (I am digressing, but I loved the story by this name, one of the very few story where there is no happy ending and yet I can read it over and over again.) for she does free herself. It did pay off, all those lessons, for when Swara was kidnapped, she had to put her training into practice. Yes he thinks quite ahead..While Miss X is super crazy, only he can outdone her😉..I want sanskar to be super smart ... @bold- I loved writing it too , imagining the sequence while writing has made me so happy..That would have been a lovely scene right . Moving on from day dreaming and back to reality😆😆...No happy ending then i never read it again ,my heart is made to handle sadness only once. Yep while i am not a big fan of Swara and her missions on the show. i dont like damsel in distress either..So in my fic Swara will be able to learn from those lessons😳...
Swara wanting to live - for Sanskaar and Ragini - and willing to fight for it. It take a lot of courage, it is an accepted fact that halve the battles are lost because few are willing to fight. It is commendable that she maintains her cool, tries to follow Sanskaar's instructions to the extent possible, only losing some control when the kidnapper makes his intent of having "fun" with her clear. But not for long, she did give it back to him, more than once and I am sure that she would have finished him off if Sanskaar had not stepped in. Not that his entry or that of the police helped the kidnapper, he really did not realise when to stop, beaten by a slip of a girl, then by Sanskaar so he thinks he is safe so he threatens Swara. Some people never learn, now he gets beaten to an inch of his life. (I wonder how Ms. X would have gained access if that guy was taken to jail insteadD'oh) Swara feeling happy at the kidnapper being taken away is absolutely justified, peace loving does not mean standing quietly to a side when gross injustice takes place, it just means not resorting to violence at all times to settle matters Yep desperate times you fight stay alive because you cant imagine you family suffering.. And swara wants that too..Given what in takes she will fight for it 😳...Inspite of being in an sheltered environment ever since her memory loss when she had to act she always maintains her cool, she did show this trait of her during Sakshi death or her parents death..She remained level headed inspite of the situation both times...😊.. Well Miss X would have bribed an police officer to kill him off😆😆
..Miss X will get her way 😡... Yeah peace loving is good but for people like him justice his more appropriate 😉...
And thank God, she did not remember all of Sanskaar's instructions for if she did she would have taken the step of releasing the safety and the result is too horrendous to even imagine. So she is finally back where she belongs, safe, in his arms. This is the one place she lost her cool because of fear..And it will come up later in an very similiar situation she would have done it before 😉..You know what i mean right..😉😉..Seeing her parents dead made her scared and she killed that kidnapper brother precisely the same way.Thank God she forgot to released the safety this time😆😆..Back in his arms and i am back to dreamland😳
Then there were Ragini and Laksh - I am sure that Laksh does love Ragini (which is what he agreed in chapter 10) and her concern for her sister overshadowing any concern for herself. She is feels it is her fault that she opened the door without ...adequate precaution and is even unwilling to listen to Laksh, who, as a pleasant surprise, is quite logical and sensible, especially when he points out the obvious that if Swara was seriously hurt, Sanskaar would have ensured that she is taken to a hospital. But Ragini is simply too shaken and troubled, partly out a self assigned guilt, to take comfort from that logic. Precisely..Well if you read chapter 11 their relation as progressed considerably from where it was in chapter 9😉... And you were spot on with those observation,Ragini was overshadowed with concern for Swara that she lost her logical thinking for a while.. See Laksh and being sensible only happens in our FF😆😆
Sujata - She is nice too, I guess her rude behavior was primarily on account of not being aware of the truth, for once she learnt of Swara's role, she immediately regretted all her harsh words. She is just a grieving mother and once she learns the fact, she wasted no time in "adopting" Swara. And it was a bewildered Swara who soon accepted the love and affection of her new found family. Well, it was a good ending, sort of, to a very sordid episode.Well Suju role is yet not done..remember she didnt know about the love birds yet.. What will be her reaction to finding it out😉... She thinks Swara as her daughter but will she allow Swara to take her daughter place in Sanskar life..Wait for chapter 12😛😛.. It mother vs mother in law precisely 😆😆..Just a part of it as we still got Miss X ,SwaSan and Ragya parts too
But then even if the sordid episode did end, with finality, it did leave scars, which is natural. And what more is more natural is to seek reassurance, a very tangible one, rather than heartfelt words. Which Sanskaar understood, he just gestured her to sit beside him and held her hand, till she felt safe and secure again. He simply lets her cry out all her fears, knowing very well that it is exactly what she needs and wants. She must have calmed down and he would have relaxed, for they do fall into restful sleep, in each others' arms, uncaring of the cold.See you explain the chapter better than i ever could and i have no words to add..That scene was so special to me ..It kind of made the whole chapter an amazing experience to write 😳
Though the highlight of this chapter (and I am a die hard SwaSan fan) is the Ragini and Laksh equation, they both are aware that their own lives and relations are in shambles and yet they rejoice in the fact that their siblings have discovered love and wholeheartedly wish for Swara and Sanskaar's happiness. Beautiful moment and a marvelous sentiment.Well I am thrilled you liked the moment more ..People usually wonder given i can never connect with them on the show how can i still keep them positive in my fics..It only because i see the potential in their story.. And i love SanLak bond😆..So yeah as i already said above their story progressed in this last two chapters 😉...on chapter 12 it time to mend thier bond as well😉
I so love this tale, lots of intrigue and mystery but never deficient in the wonders of human relationships.And I so love your comments that make this whole experience much more lovely
love,
Nyna
Ms. X - appears to be very closely linked to the Maheshwaris and somehow blames them for her orphaned state. She, like most of us, is quick to blame others or circumstances, labelling them as wolves with impunity, never realising that the person in the mirror is already one of them.Miss X is linked with Maheshwaris indeed which maheshwari is the question..Laksh,Sanskar, Uttara or DP😉...
With love
Nita
