A Beautiful Distraction (chapter 1)

Scene starts from badi
Everyone was present there for fixing the date of raglak marriage …..
Raglak were sitting in middle of hall surrounded by elders ….

Dadi – ap ji muh meetha ki jiye do haphte bad shaadi ha (ap ji have sweet as marriage is after two weeks )

She was about to put sweets in ap mouth when sujata came in between …. So instead of feeding sweets to ap she puts it in sujata mouth ….

Sujata – are ap bhi muh meetha kijiye na kaki sa …..
Before dadi could say something sujata stuffs her mouth with ladoo …. N gives her tight smile. …

All were suppressing there smile seeing dadi’s face

Ma …..
Echoes a beautiful voice in whole room gaining everyone attention

Dadi taunting – vakhat mil gaya thare ko apni behen ki khushi me shamil hone ke liye (finally you got time to join in your sister happiness )

Swara felt bad listening her but not to spoil the happy atmosphere she kept a fake smile

Swara – dadi vo i had one important class …..
Her sentence left incomplete as dadi showed her hand ….

Dadi – bas bas mare ko bahane na suna (she turns to everyone) is ladki ki toh parvarish hi aise hai aap sab is me na pado bas mari ladoo ki khushi me muh meetha karo …. (stop don’t give me excuses …. Her upbringing is only like this … You all dont get involve in this , just have sweets in my ladoo happiness

Swara eyes went teary but she quickly hides it when she found her mother coming near her

Sumi – shona are you alright

Swara – ma you dont take tension your shona is very brave

Sumi smiles and caress her head
Sumi – go and change your dress and come we all will leave to temple soon

Swara nods and left from there

Everyone gets busy for planning about marriage …..

Elders were preparing for pooja

Parish (pari + aadarsh) and uttra were teasing raglak ….

Aadarsh – pari how good they are looking together

Pari – good they are looking best … Or now toh marriage date also came…..

Uttra teasing – then good news will also come ….

Aadarsh confused – good news

Pari – are they will become three from two
Trio starts laughing while ragini was looking down seeing shy but seems like Laksh was unaffected with all this … His full concentration was on doorway …

Laksh monologue – when will Swara come i just want to be with her always but now i am stuck with ragini …. Oh god do something and make me merey with my Swara ……

His trance was broken by Dp

Dp – so i think we should move towards temple

All accepts and starts to move towards main door but Laksh eyes were still on Swara room door …..

Suddenly

THUD ….

A huge sounds comes making everyone shock and looks towards the direction

And there stood a man who pushed the door with his whole force causing it to bang ….

His face was not visible as his hands were there on his face
His cloths were torn and dirty looks like not washed from months ….. His hands and legs have few cut and blood oozing out from them

He ran and stands behind ragini holding the end of her dupatta …..

And there comes another shock for maheshwari

Sujata whispers – sanskar

Sanskar behaving like mad – save ….. Me …. they…. will …. save …. Me …
He hides more behind ragini

All stood there numb ….

Three four people holding sticks enters inside house ….

One of them want near sanskar and starts dragginig him out ….

Laksh was the first one to come out from shock hearing sanskar shouting ….

Sanskar trying to free from that man clutch
Sanskar shouting – leave …. leave …. Me ….
Laksh immediately went near them and separated sanskar hiding him on his back

Sanskar pulling his hairs – bad …. They …. bad … save … Me ….

Man to Laksh – you move aside let me handle this mad ….

Laksh calmly – No need … I can handle my bhai you all can leave

Man leaves from there shrugging there shoulders ….

Sujata comes near sanskar touching his face – sanskar …. mara chora …. mara sanskar ….
She was about to hug him but he jerks her and hides behind ragini ….

Sujata was about to fall but ram holds her on nick of time

Sanskar – No …. don’t …. near …. me …. gandi …. tum …. gandi

All had tears in there eyes seeing his conditions ….
Ragini tries to free her dupatta from sanskar hand but he was not ready to leave her ….

Sanskar tapping his head – No …. no …. dost …. no …

Ragini – chidiya hume (leave me)

Dadi gets angry seeing sanskar holding ragini …. She quickly pulled ragini away and pushed sanskar ….
He was not able to hold on his legs leading him to fall down ….

Sujata shouts – kaki sa how dare you ….

Laksh and ram made sanskar stand properly …. But sanskar hides behind Laksh in fear and also he was crying like a small child

Hearing so many noises Swara came down and stood at a distance looking at everyone confused but then her eyes caught by a stranger ….

Swara – who is he ….

Here sanskar was hiding himself more and more behind Laksh cluthing his shirt tightly in his fist

Laksh tries calming him down
Laksh – bhai look stop crying …. Nothing happened ….

Sanskar sobs didn’t stop

Sujata and ram looks at sanskar with tears in there eyes
They were happy to see there son after a long five years
But at the same time sad seeing his condition

Finally not able to control anymore sujata breaks down …. Ap supports her
Sujata – jiji mara chora mara sanskar ke hua use …

Ram tries going near to sanskar but he moves back and shakes his head like a mad ….

Sanskar – no …. Don’t …. come …. near ….. don’t

While shaking his head his eyes lies in a angel …. Who else is angle present there except his Swara ….

His eyes meets with her
Time seems to stop for him

«ankhon mein teri…
ajab si, ajab si, adaayein hain
Dil ko bana dein jo patang
Saansein ye teri vo hawaayein hain»

His eyes sparkles seeing her ….
A unknown desire rises in his heart

«Tere saath saath aisa
Koi noor aaya hai
Chaand teri raushni ka
Halka sa ik sayaa hai
Teri nazron ne dil ka kiya jo hasharr
Asarr ye hua
Ab inmein hi doobke ho jaaun paar
Yehi hai dua»

He was lost in her when Laksh jerks him
Laksh – bhai are you alright ….

Sanskar again starts behaving like mad ….. He jerks Laksh hand and starts throwing things on ground …..

Everyone tries stoping him so that he does not harm himself but he becomes more violent

He throws a bade on glass table with such a force that it breaks into pieces

Laksh – bhai sambal ke

But sanskar moves backwards
His leg comes on glass piece … He winced in pain ….
Swara can’t take it any more …. He was a stranger for her but still for humanity she came forward to help

Swara takes few steps towards sanskar
Swara – sanskar dekho ….

Sanskar looks at her and again lost in her those captive pair of black orbs

«Aankhon mein teri
Ajab si, ajab si, adaayein hain
Ho…
ankhon mein teri
ajab si, ajab si, adaayein hain
Dil ko bana dein jo patang
Saansein ye teri vo hawaayein hain»

Swara taking this as a chance moves a little more forward

Everyone prays that sanskar listens to her …

He comes in senses seeing her moving ………. He tries to take step back but his leg hurts again ….

Sanskar crying in pain – aa aa… dard ….

Swara immediately holds him and makes him sit on couch carefully …..

But for sanskar when Swara hands comes in contact with his bare masculine arms he felt like current passing through his body …. His all senses stops working
His resisting power fades away ….

After making him sit properly on couch Swara went and brought first aid box

She holds his leg and starts removing glass pieces carefully blowing air to his wounds so that his pain reduced a bit

While sanskar was looking at her innocently ….

Swara did with his bandage and looks up

Swara – is it paining

Sanskar nods childishly

Swara smiles seeing him …. She a medicine and glass of water to him

Sanskar looks at medicine and then Swara

Swara – have it your pain will get reduce .

Sanskar nods in no making a yuk face

Laksh comes forward
Laksh – swara may i

Swara nods and gives him medicine

Laksh makes sanskar have it …..
