My place, from mobile will get back soon
Unres
Okay the future series is quite similar to the Serial canon, though Swara wanting to take revenge was the twist. Ragini the same, just wants what she wants, the rest can go to hell. Laksh impulsive as usual, Sanskaar guilty as usual (though to be truthful, I did find him wanting to hurt Swara because she lied a little too much) and Swara determined to hurt them all, this was also a little difficult to accept, in a nice way.
But then as you so aptly put it, revenge is a double edged sword, and in the end, of this update we find that both Swara and Sanskaar ruined themselves in the pursuit of revenge. But then even when she offers Sanskaar a chance at redemption, she does not appear to be truly sorry for what she did, she is just tired of punishing him and wants to take his help in setting her life right. I somehow feel that she would continue to hold herself back and that is what prompts him to travel back.
Your tale and your hint for my previous comment reminds me of a O'Henry tale - The Roads of Destiny. Lovely story, do read if you get a chance but for now I will only leave a quote from that story:
"I go to seek on many roads,
What is to be.
True heart and strong, with love to light
Will they not bear me in the fight
To order, shun or wield or mould
My destiny?"
It does not matter which road they chose, Swara and Sanskaar would end up together.
Keep writing and do keep visiting, Miss you.
love,
