A week passed..
Rehan made Sanskar entry in car race. He took care of everything. As sanskar had already done races before so it wasn't much difficult to manage. It's one month time remaining for the race and one before the race, there will be a practice race.

Rehan told sanskar to come and live with him till race because he had to do practice and he won't be able to do job in Bangalore in between this. Sanskar was a bit nervous because if he left job and lost the race then he will left with nothing. But gathering courage , he left the job. He told Everything to Mr. Mittal and he was really understanding man. He also told, he can come back to job anytime he want. Sanskar got some relief.

After that, he met his father and mom. His mom blessed him. And then he left for Mumbai.

swara and jiya already came back to Mumbai the third day while Rehan stayed there with sanskar and his family. Swara handled office in his absence and even Sanskar participation formalities was handled by her which was told by Rehan.

Night:
12: 45 a.m.
Swara was in mansion but not sleep, she was on bed. She took out a photo which was kept below the pillow. It was sanskar's pic which she took out from album.

Swara:( monologue) when will u come here? It's already been a week that I saw u and it's feeling like ages. Come soon my cutee.. love u.

I m not getting sleep. ( Thinking something) how can I miss this chance ? This is perfect time to spend with my love , my ice cream is calling me.. Here I come my second love.

She come out of her room and go to kitchen. She open the fridge and sees her favourite chocolate ice cream . She took out that big bowl and go to dinning table.

Swara: oh my sweet chocolate ice cream.. u missed me na? I also missed u. But frankly I m sorry, I only bought u from market and then I only forget about u. What to do, I was thinking about my sanskar. But no worry, Bhai is also not here so, now no one can stop me from having u. Now it's only u and me.

She took one spoon and taste it : umm.. it's so yum... yummy..
She eat few more spoons and enjoying the taste of ice cream closing her eyes, when the door bell rang.

Swara : whose it? Servants also slept. Now I have to go and check.. no one let me spend time with my ice cream, huh!!. I won't go.

She thought not to go and again start to have ice cream when door bell rang again.

Swara: whose is it yaar? How can guards let anyone come inside at this time. I have to check.. But don't worry ,I won't leave my ice cream.

She hold the bowl and go to check on the door. She open the door only little bit and say: Bhai is not here. Come later. Now get lost!!( She said in one line and didn't let the person say anything)

Saying this she shut the door. She was about to go back but door bell rang again. She open the door and say

Swara: what's the problem, I said na .. ( look at person) BHAI and. SANSKAR.. U both!!

Sanskar who saw her in night suit and holding ice cream bowl chuckled. He was amused to see, she actually told rehan to get lost.

Rehan: ( smile tightly) yes swara, we are here and I can't get lost from here. It's my home.

Swara: so what's my fault? Who come at this late night? Did u see the time, it's more than 1 and couldn't u tell me that u will come today.

Rehan: if I had told u then how would I caught u with this ice cream bowl.

Swara bit her tongue.

Rehan: what Happened now? Say.. u know very well u get cold and still u r eating and that too ,full bowl??

Swara made faces getting scold by rehan.
Swara: fine sorry , I won't eat next time. Don't start ur lecture. I m going to sleep, huh!!

Saying this she turned around to go.
Rehan: wait..
Swara: what now?
Rehan took the bowl from her hand and say: now u can go.. gooood nigghht!!
Swara: U R SO BADDDD!!
She stomp her feet and go from there.

Rehan: sorry about this girl. She behave so childish some time.
Sanskar:( chuckled) can't believe she is the same girl whom I seen talking so maturely.
Rehan: that's she is.. come I will show u ur room.

" Wait" both stopped hearing swara who came back.
Rehan: I m not giving u this bowl so go to ur room.
Swara: keep that with u and sleep with that only.... I was just asking ,did u both have ur dinner or should I make something for u?
Rehan:( smiled) no need swara.. we had out dinner in restaurant. Go to sleep.
Swara: okay, good night Bhai,good night sanskar..
Sanskar: good night.
Rehan look at sanskar: told u, she is unbelievable..
Sanskar nods smilingly.
Then rehan show sanskar his room and he go to his room and trio sleep.

Swara go to her room and jump on the bed. She squeal in happiness.
" Oh my god , oh my god!! He is here.. I felt like butterflies dancing inside me when I saw him with Bhai.. I m so happy.

Morning:
Swara wake up and get fresh n up. She came downstairs and found Rehan was going for jogging . He saw her and say.
Rehan: swara, could u please give a water bottle to sanskar. He is in gym.

Swara nods. Rehan go. Swara go and took a bottle to gym. But as she entered she stopped there only as she found sanskar in his vest and sweat pants. He was sweating and vest was too wet revealing his well muscled body and his abs. His biceps were so strong.

Swara:( monologue) is he became more hot and his body get more built and muscled than before. I mean that compared to last time pic. Is he trying to kill me with his looks and body? Then please save me god because I m already dead!! Whistles ..( in mind)

She came in sense when someone snapped fingers in front of her. She gets surprised to find sanskar standing there and looking at her with raised eyebrows.

Sanskar: again lost huh!!??
Swara: huh!! No.. I mean nothing.
Sanskar took steps towards her and say: really? ( Swara moved back)
Sanskar: tell me something, what u start talking to urself when I m around or does it happens to u , anyone being around?
Swara: no no.. it's happens only in ur case.. ( she blurt out, sanskar smirked)
Sanskar: really? That's interesting.. so tell me what were u talking to urself about me?

And then swara could not move back further only to realize she was trapped by wall behind. She tried to move from side but sanskar put his hand on both side.

Sanskar: what's the hurry, first answer then go.
Swara :( monologue) where u got stuck swara? What was need to check him out so long? But what to do, he is looking damn handsome and hot.

Sanskar: louder, don't speak in ur mind..
Swara:( stammered) me.. me.. woh.. I , I .. was .. nothi.. nothing.. I just..
Sanskar: what is it Ms. Ranawat? ( Getting but close making her more nervous)
Swara: I just came .. to.. to give u water. I.. wasn't thinking anything.
Sanskar: sure?
Swara: ye.. yes.

Sanskar moved back but stand there only.
Sanskar: it's ok if u don't say now. I will make u say it one day. Anyway, I think u need water more than me..

Swara gulp and say: yes u r right.. my throat is getting dry.

She immediately open the cap and gulp the water .he get amuse to see her. She gulp almost half the bottle then take a deep breathe. She handled water bottle to him and run out of gym not turning back again.
Sanskar look at her running and laughed shaking her head. He drink water from bottle and smiled.

" She is really something"

After sometime,
Swara came out of mansion , ready to go to office. Rehan was standing there only.
Swara: Bhai, can I join u. U r going to office na?
Rehan: yeah sure.. come.
She come to his car when she find sanskar also coming out.

Sanskar: nice car Rehan

Rehan: thanks, so shall we go?
Swara: he is also going ?( To Rehan)
Rehan: yeah so?
Swara: nothing ( a bit uncomfortable reminding morning moment)
Sanskar: can I drive?( Looking at the car)
Rehan: sure.. ( throwing key toward him, which he caught) I will sit on back seat then as swara don't sit at back..
Swara:( immediately) what no!! I will sit at back.
Rehan: are u sure? U don't like it na?
Swara look at sanskar who was chuckling.
( Monologue) I would love to sit with him but not now. That morning incident is still roaming around my mind.
( To Rehan) no, I will be fine.
Saying this she immediately go to back seat before anyone could say anything. Rehan get confused but sanskar understood it.

Everyone got on their seats and put on seat belts.
Sanskar starts the car.

Swara:( monologue) come on swara. U can't be dumb. U love him yrr.. if u won't talk them how will it will move further. Yeah I should say something. Forget about awkwardness. Come on be bold and brave.

Car was moving with normal speed and sanskar and Rehan were talking.

Swara: sanskar , u sure... U were race driver? I thought u will drive too fast but it's so usual haan?( Teasing)

Rehan: I m warning u, don't create problem for urself swara.

Swara: come on Bhai.. I m just having doubt. U said he drive too fast that makes people scared to sit in the car with him. I m not feeling anything like that. Don't get me wrong but what's the excitement without speed?

Sanskar knew that she was just teasing and challenging him.

Sanskar: ( smirked) fine then let's have some excitement..,rehan buckle up.. and Ms. Ranawat, please hold urself and check if ur seat belt is properly done.

ND before swara could saying she felt herself pushed back on the seat with a jerk. Rehan shakes his head and smiled. He already knew what's gonna happen. Sanskar shift the gear and accelerate , increase the speed.

Sanskar:( see swara from mirror who was shocked) this is what u wanted swara?
Swara immediately gripped on the seat as she guessed speed above 100 which was actually true . Rehan was chuckling and looking out.

Sanskar: ( teases) if u r scares then tell me, I will stop.. and drive with normal speed..( wink at her through mirror)

Swara:( stammer) wh.. what..no.i m not scared.

Sanskar: ok then, here we go..
( Increasing speed further)
Sanskar take sharp turn and it sounds the screeching of wheels. Swara clutch the side , totally falling sideways but before that she was again pushed back with jerk. Thanks God ,this seat belt as tightly holding her otherwise what would have happened to her. She thought.

Suddenly she saw two trucks coming from front and then realized they are in wrong lane..
Swara:( shout) this is wrong lane!! We will have accident, those trucks are approaching toward us..!!
Rehan: relax swara, nothing will happen!! Chill..
He was relaxed because it was not new to him.
Swara: chill?? Have u gone mad Bhai?? Can't u both see the trucks.!!

( See trucks are coming close) noo!!

( Shut her eyes and down her head)
but before anything happen, sanskar immediately take turn to the other side, passing just by the trucks.. sanskar saw swara from mirror.

Sanskar: u can open ur eyes swara.. we are still alive.. ( chuckled)
Swara open her one eye and see they are back on right lane.

Swara: uu, u!! U SCARED ME TO HELL!!
Sanskar:( cool) glad u Accepted !! But final show down is still remaining so brace urself.

Swara look out to find that they have reached rvr industry, and car's speed was still too much.

Swara: why r u not decreasing the speed, can't u see we reached?

Rehan: relax swara.. let him park.
Swara: are u kidding me, he will park with this deadly speed??
Sanskar: oh u got me!! And u get full point..
Swara: hell no !! No way!!

Car moved toward parking area. The car rotate 180 degree on the surface then , sanskar moved car ahead and then reversed sharply. And apply break abruptly such that car almost jumped before stopped at parking.

Sanskar: here u go !! We reached.
Hearing no answer from swara , both looked back at swara who was completely out of the world. Her eyes were wide opened but she was not here.

Rehan: swara???
Sanskar snapped finger at her and then shake her a bit.
Swara: aaaaa...( Coming out of shock)

Then shakes their head looking at each other and come out of car.

Rehan: woww!! That was fantastic buddy!! I m sure ,u r gonna turn race track into fire. Who said u need practice.

Then suddenly swara come out of car, holding her head as she was feeling Everything was moving round and round.
She go to both of them and look at sanskar: what was that!!! I will kill u!! Huh!!my head is spinning like hell!!

Rehan give her I warned u look. While sanskar give smirking look " don't dare to challenge me".

Swara look at them angrily but didn't say anything else and go from there holding her head.

Sanskar hide his smile and then he also go in with rehan.

Days passed like that . Swara and sanskar slowly start getting close. Sanskar didn't wanted to take any risk so he did regular practice. Rehan was always there to help him and swara too. Sanskar go to meet his parents once a week and sometimes he get nervous, if something happened wrong but swara always there to support him and tell him that he can do this. She even accompany him for his practice session..

Ten day later:
Swara was standing at the finishing line and look for sanskar car. He came and passed by finishing line in full speed. Swara stopped the stop watch. She go to sanskar.

Sanskar came out of car and ask: how much ?
Swara: 3 minutes and 18 sec..
Sanskar: still 18 seconds late.. damn it!!
Swara: it's fine sanskar , in starting it was 5 minutes and 29 second now it's 3 minutes 18 seconds.. I think u will do better.
Sanskar: I don't know Swara, I tried my best.
Swara: no, that can't be ur best. U can do better. Come on..
Sanskar: u think so?
Swara: I know so, since the first day. So why about another try..?
Sanskar smile and nods.
Sanskar: let's do it then..

Then Sanskar again do the practice. Swara checking time for him.
Swara: 3 min and 5 seconds. I told u that's not ur best and it's still not ur best.
Sanskar:don't worry ,I will reach my best.
Then both go home.

Night:
Everyone were having dinner.
Rehan: that's really good sanskar, u r best.
Sanskar: not best.. just trying to be best ( look at swara who also look at him)
Rehan: I m sure, u will do it Sanskar.

Then only bell ring.
A servant open the door.

Swara: jiya? U here? Come join us.
Rehan get surprised . He turned back to find her.
Jiya: no thanks ,I just came to give this file. Sir said he need it for tomorrow.
Rehan: yes, but u could have given me tomorrow in office.
Jiya: that's only I wanted to say. Actually u were so busy today in office so I couldn't tell u. I need leave for tomorrow.
Rehan:leave? But why?
Jiya: umm.. an alliance came for me and they are coming tomorrow to see me. So, I won't be able to come.

Swara was shocked but before she could say anything they heard a loud voice..
" Whatttt???"
It was Rehan. Swara look at him.
Rehan: no, that can't be possible!!
Jiya: excuse me??
Rehan: no.. I mean, how can u take leave? Tomorrow is ....
Jiya: no meetings sir. I have checked ur schedule and yeah I told Myra to handle ur schedule for tomorrow. She is really efficient to work as u said. So can I take leave?
Rehan: ok
Jiya: ok then , see u bye sir .. bye swara and bye Sanskar.
Sanskar: bye jiya..
Rehan was sad and look away. Jiya look at him. Sanskar look at her and sign thumbs up to her which swara saw. Jiya also nods hiding her smile.

Jiya goes out.
Rehan go to his room excusing himself leaving his dinner in middle.

Rehan: I m done.. I m going to sleep.

Swara go to sanskar: what was that? I know there is something cooking between u and jiya.
Sanskar: don't be jealous, she is like my sister.
Swara smack on his chest.
Swara: jealous and me? Don't have any misconception?
Sanskar:( raised his eyebrow) oh really?
Swara: but tell me what was that? I saw u signing something to jiya?

Sanskar : I told jiya to say that.

Swara: what? But why? Did u see Bhai face?
Sanskar: I know that's what I wanted to see. If I didn't do anything na then ur Bhai will stay bachelor for his whole life. He is just too stubborn to accept his feelings.

Swara: how did u know about jiya and Bhai?

Sanskar: because unlike ur brother I have my eyes and brain that works.

Swara:( monologue) then why don't it work in understanding my feelings?

( To sanskar) ok , so what's the plan?

Sanskar: nothing. Let's wait and watch. Trust me, it's going to be interesting . He is such duffer, due to some idiotic reason he is not accepting jiya but now let's see how will he deny.

Swara: ( smiled) now atleast they can be together. I m happy and excited. Thanks for doing it

Sanskar nods.
Swara: ok, I think I should also go to sleep.
Sanskar: swara.
Swara look at him: yeah,
Sanskar: would it affect u if there will be some girl in my life. U really won't be jealous if there would have been someone else than jiya?

Swara: ( monologue) I will take out her eyes and break her ribs if I see any girl around u.. and I feel like something burning inside me when I see any girl even talking to u.

Sanskar saw her and shakes his head.
Sanskar: can u stop talking to urself?

Swara: huh!! No, I mean no ,why will be I jealous?
Saying this she was about to go but he hold her hand and pulled her such that her back glued his chest.

Sanskar: (whispered in her ear such that his lips touching her ear) it's ok if u won't but in my case, it will affect me and may be it will be worst for that guy.

Swara widen her eyes . Sanskar leave her and go from there smilingly leaving her numb. She stayed rooted in her place and felt sudden heat rushed to her cheeks.

Swara rushed to her room and close the door. She jumped on the bed happily. She lay down and her face was covered with her hair and she was smiling.
Swara:( monologue) when I m close to u. I feel like only u r in this world. No one else. I see emotion in ur eyes but I don't want to misunderstand and hurt myself. Why r u being a puzzle sanskar? M I in ur heart like u exist in mine? I m urs but can I hope to call u mine?
No swara, u can't be some typical girl. Yes, I will ask him directly why does it affect him if I be with some other guy. Yeah..

Two days later:
Swara was standing near dinning table. She came back from office but Rehan didn't came till now and sanskar was still busy with practice.

Swara:( monologue) yes today I will pakka ask him ,yeah!! Am I kidding to myself, since two days, I m saying same thing to myself, huh!! But what to do, whenever he come close to me.. I get distracted.

" Thinking about me?" She heard a husky voice in her ear.
She jumped at her place . Sanskar who just came found her lost came to her slowly and then chuckled watching her reaction.

Swara:who come like this haan? My heart is beating so fast ..huh!! U scared me.

Sanskar:( murmured) ur heart automatically starts beating fast with my presence. I don't need to do that.

Swara: what?
Sanskar: nothing, u say what r u doing here? It's not time for dinner I guess.

Swara: oh ,I.. I.. woh yeah, I was feeling hungry so I came to apple.

Sanskar: ok, I also need one.
Swara:(monologue) come on swara u can ask.. come on do it.

Swara: can I ask u something?
Sanskar: sure..

Swara: u , u..said it will affect u if I .. u umm ,I be with some guy, why?

Sanskar smirked . He look at her and walk toward her.
Sanskar:( come close to her, making her breathe stuck) do I need to tell u that also? U don't understand it ?

Swara: whm. What s... Should ,I un... Understand?
He move further close and trapped her between himself and table behind her.
Sanskar: the thing which hearts understand and feel.. ( leaning close to her lips)
Swara: heart?
( Monologue) why he is doing like this, god please save me. My heart is beating so fast .. why I m feeling so breathless? Why am I sweating when A.c. is on?
Sanskar: due to my closeness..

Swara widen her eyes ( monologue) did I said it loud?

Sanskar:no u didn't ,but I heard it. For ur answer, it will affect me because...

Swara: because...?( Looking at his lips as she felt his deep breathe on her face)
Sanskar: because there is something special about u which only I want to feel. Only I want to admire u, I want to see those emotions for me only which ur eyes hold, ( he was saying so intensely that swara close her eyes struggling with her breathe) to have pleasure of being this much close to u and make ur heart beat race to unimaginable speed.
( Look at her, his one hand move to her face , slowly tracing her features and other hand hold her waist)
Now that I answered ur question then can u tell me something?

Swara:( still closed eyes) hmmm..

Sanskar:( huskily) Do i really look so hot when I do exercise in gym?

Swara open her eyes wide and look at him who raised his eyebrow asking her. Then wink at her.

Sanskar: and yeah don't worry, there is no one else other than u so u don't need to break anyone's ribs or need to feel something burning inside urself.
Then he moved back and took apple from basket and move from there leaving her in shocked .

Swara:( monologue) how can he come to know? I never said it loud.
Sanskar:( loudly) don't stress ur little mind too much swara. ( Going to stairs)

Swara shakes her head that she won't talk now. And then rushed to her room... Sanskar was chuckling watching her reaction.
