- It was a normal sunday morning for swara. She has woke up late and has done nothing beside getting freshen up and making a coffee for herself. Now she was prepared for doing her favorite work which was organizing her dear plants in her small balcony of her small flat. Gardening was her childhood hobby. Sipping her coffee swara looked at balcony which was filled with flowerpots. She had not much work today with those plants, just to cutting some leaves and all. It was Sunday so she didn’t have any hurry of making food and going office on time. She could be lazy today. Normally she just watered these plants because she needed to run for work. Swara went in balcony, a small smile covered her lips by looking her favorite flowers plants. Rose, marigold and Jasmine. It made her super happy that her care and love for those plants had grown up and turned out in beautiful and fresh flowers which were now playing with morning air and smiling at her. It was so hard to grow these plants in flowerpots and maintain them in small balcony. Those flowers made her remember her grand mother who was far away from her in their hometown, she had same hobby of gardening as swara and she was the one who taught her how to take perfect care of plants and all.
- Only she knew that how much she missed her ma and dida. She would have never left her family and home, if it was not the mater of her study and career. Her ma and dida wanted her to study in good school and college that’s why they sent her delhi. It was not easy for them nor emotionally neither financially but still they managed because they wanted swara to get good education and career. Swara never disappointed her family. She did every possible thing to make them happy. She was good in study, not extra intelligent or brilliant but still she managed good ranks in her school and college and now she was working in company. Not on any big post but still on a respective one, and she was working hard to achieve more. This was the whole story of her life.
- Swara picked up her mobile and called her ma. She knew that her dear mother would be at home today as it was Sunday. Here at her home, her mother sumi was reading newspaper while drinking tea when her phone ranged, she smiled seeing swara’s name on screen and picked up the call.
- Sumi: hey shona. How are you?
- Swa: oh ma, don’t ask like we are talking after days. What are you doing?
- Sumi: i am reading newspaper and enjoying tea made by your dida.
- Swa: and what is she doing?
- Sumi: she is in kitchen. She planning to make fish curry today.
- Sumi shouted shobha (swara grandma) to come out and talk with swara. Shobha comes there and took mobile from sumi.
- Shobha: are soru. My baby, what’s up?
- Swa: dida, i am angry on you. You are making fish curry there and here i am alone and hungry.
- Shobha: then go and make something. Don’t curse my fish curry otherwise my stomach will hurt after having it.
- Swa: no first i will organize my plants in balcony then i will make something to eat. You know rest of the days of weak, i am busy woth office work so today i will work on my plants.
- Shobha: ha soru, what about those plants of red roses which you took from here.
- Swa: oh dida, i had planted them and now it has grown up and has started providing beautiful red roses. But i don’t like to pluck those flowers without any reason.
- Shabha: then search a reason to pluck them.
- Swa: what?
- Sobha: you know what i am saying swara. Search someone who will pluck these roses to give you or you will pluck them to give him.
- Swa: oh dida. Don’t start this again plzz. I don’t have any interest in these type of talks.
- Sumi who was listening there talks because Shobha had turned loudspeaker of her phone, jumped in the conversation..
- Sumi: your right swara, you don’t need to take any interest of these type of talks, i am there for searching a good boy for you. Don’t hear your dida’s talk.
- Dida: ye sumi, let her decide for her future.
- Sumi: but ma she is too innocent to….
- Swa: hey hey, now don’t start fighting on it plzz. And i don’t want any boy, i am okay like this only. So ma, you also don’t need to do any favor for me.
- Shobha and sumi: why??
- Swa: because i don’t have any interest in boys.
- Shobha: don’t tell us that you have interest in girls…
- Swa: deedaa… Stop your mind which is running on totally wrong path. It’s nothing like this, aap bhi na pata nhi kya kya sochti rahti hai.
- Sumi: yes ma, aap bhi na? Btw shona that girl kavita, is she still your best friend.
- Swa: yes ma, why?
- Sumi: no actually, you both spend this much time together and she is so protective about you so…
- Swa: ma you too. You both are just ufff… Ma, she has a boyfriend. Don’t use your minds this much.
- Shobha: okay okay, we got it. Don’t curse us anymore. Your almost 25 and still refusing to get married so we are just…
- Swa: leave it na yrr plzz.
- Shobha: okay okay leave it. We should not fight over this.
- Sumi: yeah…
- Swa: btw you know dida, i have set these flower pots in such way in my balcony that, anyone can see these flowers from outside only. And many people have said that it look beautiful from outside. And that uncle who lived next door have learned some gardening tips from me.
- Shobha: okay okay. Now stop praising yourself.
- Swa: okay okay. Now cut the call. I need to work. Will call you later.
- Shobha and sumi : okay bye tc.
- Swa: bye tc.
- Saying this swara cut the call and checked her mobile. There was only some msg for her. First from her friend kavita, who was her most trusted person here in this city. Second was from kavya, a good friend of swara but a bit stupid and spoiled girl of her rich parents. Third was from vardhan, a cute guy from swara’s office who was trying to impress swara to be his girlfriend and swara knew that. Some was group msg like stupid jokes. It’s not like that she didn’t have friends but she was not that popular among them cause of her silent, strict, boring and to busy in work image. And in real, she didn’t want to get popular. She was happy with her life. After replying them swara started with her plants, first she need to clean dead fallen leaves and some soil which had fallen from pots also needed to be clean. After a minute of work swara was disturbed by doorbell. She knew it was kids of building who love to torture people like this. She was usually not their target as she always treated them sweetly and mingled with them but sometimes little Devils do that. Swara hurriedly came out to caught them but what she hear was their laughing running away footsteps. She shouted on them with anger that she will punish them if they will again do it which was totally fake and swara and kids all knew that it was fake. Swara closed the door and went in. Before she could go in balcony, the doorbell again ranged, swara picked that scissor by which she cut plant’s leaves in order to threaten those kids. The doorbell kept ringing, swara put an angry expression on her face and ran towards the door. She opened the door showing that scissor like she was going to hurt the person standing in front of door, shouting something like “why the hell are you all… ” but her words got stuck in her throat when she saw a person standing in front of her who was not a kid of her building for sure. He looked big but swara couldn’t see his face as he had crossed his arms in his defence from swara. Swara’s eyes widen in shock and the guy slowly started moving her arms from his face. Their trace was broken by the kids who was laughing on the situation of that guy. Swara glared them with anger but they laughed more.
- Swara: why the hell are you all laughing.
- A kid: you scared that bhaiyya with this scissor and dangerous look.
- Swara looked at that guy who was standing in front of her. Now swara could see his face and she had seen him many time before this. He given a nervous smile to swara. She replied same smile to him and turned towards kids.
- Swa: ye mene unhe darane k liye nhi tum logo ko darane k liye kiya tha. Yes thode na kisi ki doorbell baza k bhag jate.
- That big guy: nhi abhi to mene bajai thi. Un logo ne nhi.
- Swa: ha wo to thik hai but us se pahle to ye log baja k bhage the na.
- Kids: Sorry didi. We will not do that again.
- Swa: okay now go from here.
- All says okay including that big guy and started moving from there. Swara when noticed him, she stopped him.
- Swa: hey… You.. Listen.
- All looked at swara. Swara hesitantly pointed at that big guy.
- Swa: you..
- Guy: me?
- Swa: ya.. You.
- All kids went down leaving them alone.
- Swa: actually wo.. Sorry for that. That was not for you, that was for those kids.
- Guy: ya that’s okay.
- Swa: why did you came at my home. I mean you rang doorbell na..
- Guy: ya.. rose, balcony.. Hey actually i am Sanskar, Sanskar Maheshwari. I live next building from this building.
- He forward his hand in front of swara for handshake.
- Swa: Sanskar… I am Swara Bose.
- Swara handshake with Sanskar.
- San: actually swara, i need a favor from you.
- Swa: what?
- San: swara wo i have seen those beautiful red roses in your balcony whenever i pass from here. I must say you have maintained them well.
- Swa: yeah thank.
- San: can i get some red roses from you daily for A month?
- Swa: what?
- San: Actually wo my sister loves flowers and specially red roses. She daily demands Fresh red roses from me.
- Swa: Sorry Sanskar but i don’t pluck my flowers like this. I just don’t like to pluck flowers for our little happiness and i don’t have any garden here. It’s barely 8-9 roses in whole week and…
- San: it’s okay swara. You don’t need to say sorry. I can understand.
- Sanskar gave her a smile trying to hide his disappointment but swara could see a sadness in his eyes.
- Swa: why don’t you buy flowers from nearby flower shop.
- San: actually swara, i live here with my sister and she met with an accident before some days and now she need complete rest.
- Swa: and…
- San: so it’s up to me to make food and do household work until she get well. I need to go go office at 9:00 so i do all work before going office that’s why it’s hard to go to flower shop to get flowers for her daily and then i come late at night so..
- Swa: so sorry about your sister sanskar.
- San: okay. I think i should leave.
- Sanskar was going when swara called him from behind.
- Swa: sanskar…
- San: ya..
- Swa: wo you can get flowers from here. I can’t give you bunch of red roses but i can give a bunch of marigold, Jasmine and A red rose daily. I know combination is not so good but this is what i have.
- San: no it’s okay if you have any problem. I will manage or…
- Swa: no no it’s okay. Your sister is not well and she spend all time at home. What’s the use of these flowers if they can’t lighten the mood of unwell person.
- San: really?
- Swa: yeah.
- San: so can i get it today itself.
- Swa: okay, come.
- San: no i will waite.
- Swara gave him a smile and went in. She came out with a bunch of flowers and found sanskar using his mobile. As sanskar saw her he put his mobile in his pocket. Swara gave flowers to him.
- San: thanks swara. From tomorrow, i will come at 8 o’clock to collect these flowers.
- Thank you so much.
- Swa: your welcome.
- San: swara, wo..actually… If you want me to pay for these flowers than i can…
- Swa: am i doing business here??
- San: no but…
- Swa: do my home look like a shop…
- San: no but…
- Swa: then??
- San: nothing. Okay bye. Will meet you tomorrow.
- Swa: bye.
- Sanskar almost ran from there. Swara kept looking at him until he was away from her eye side.
- Soon swara closed the door and come in.
- Swara’s pov…
- I have seen sanskar before also. I knew that he live here somewhere. I have seen him sometime when we come back from our respective offices or in nearby park where the people of our area goes. He always seems so busy with his mobile or friends. I used to thought that he must be annoying arrogant person but he seems caring and friendly. Aahhh…stop it swara. Stop thinking about him and concentrate on your work.
- Swara’s pov ends.
- Rest of the day was normal for swara. Next day was monday??. Swara wake up in hurry, she did all her work of home. She lives here alone and don’t want to waste money on any made who could make food and could do other work for that work which she could manage by her own. After doing all her work, it was almost 8 o’clock, she used to left for office at 8:30. the last thing was left to water her plants and pluck flowers for Sanskar. She watered plants and made a bunch of flowers for sanskar. A small bunch because flowers was limited. Suddenly the doorbell ranged and swara knew who was on the door. Swara ran towards the door and as expected, she found sanskar standing there with a smile. After wishing morning to each other swara handed flowers to sanskar,they talked just for a minute and then sanskar went. Monday was soon followed by the other days of the week. Nothing was special in this week for swara. As usual lot of work and anger of her oldie akdu boss. The only thing was changed was her early morning feeling. First she used to want clock to stuck on shaven but now she used to wait for 8 o’clock. After all it was her responsibility to hand over her flowers to sanskar on time. Right na?? And sanskar, never used to get late. He was there always on time. Today it was sunday morning again. Swara again doing some work with her plants. She looked at clock, it was 7:45. Swara made a bunch of flowers again for sanskar. The time just passed and passed but sanskar didn’t come. It was 8:30 now. Swara was feeling more dull with every passing movement. She was not angry on sanskar and not even sad, why would she get angry or sad. She was just …don’t know actually. After some more time, swara got up and took that bunch of flowers and throw it in dustbin. She went in kitchen to make something to eat. Suddenly the doorbell rang, swara went and opened the door just to find sanskar standing there with a red rose and big chocolate. He gave her that signature smile which could blown hearts of many girls.
- San: good morning swara.
- Swa(uninterested): good morning.
- San: what happened swara? Are you okay.
- Swa: yes i am okay. What are you doing here at this time??
- San: wo actually… This is for you.
- He forwarded that rose and chocolate in front of her.
- Swa: for me. Why??
- San: you daily do a fav…
- Swa: first come inside. Then we will talk.
- San: oh finally you called me inside yrr. I thought you will never ask me to come inside your home.
- Saying this sanskar came inside leaving swara at the door. As swara realized that he has already gone inside,she also followed him closing the door behind her and found sanskar sitting on the couch already.
- Swa: so why have you bring this flower and chocolate for me?
- San: you help me daily by giving me flowers so i wanted to thank you for that.
- Swa: sanskar i don’t do that for any return gift..
- San: i know swara but i wanted to give something so. Btw don’t you like chocolates??
- Swa: i just love chocolates. Saying this swara remove the rapper of chocolate and started eating it.
- San: swara…
- Swa: hmmm…
- San: chocolate share krke khao to jyada maza ata h.
- Swa: no i am not gonna share this with you.
- San: why??
- Swa(lost in tast of chocolate and playing with that red rose):why do you came late today??
- San: were you waiting for me??
- Swara’s eyes widen in tension because she didn’t know the answer clearly but still she tried to hide her embarrassment.
- Swa: no…wo i needed to go somewhere at that time but i didn’t go cause of you so…
- San: sorry swara. You don’t need to cancel your programs for me. You should have informed me.
- Swa: no it’s okay.
- They both got silent for a minut.
- Swa: would you like to have some coffee or tea.
- San: tea if you don’t have any problem with that.
- Swa: okay,you wait here. I will make tea for you.
- San: oh come on. Don’t be so official with me and let me help you in kitchen.
- Saying this sanskar also followed swara in kitchen. Swara tried to denied but sanskar didn’t here her. They spend almost two hour together like they never did before. Swara felt this much happy after days. She had not visited her home from 3 months and have not talked properly with her friends from long so she used to feel dull and a bit sad these days but she felt better after spending time with sanskar. After all everyone need a good company for sometime. When swara asked about sanskar’s sister from him. He kept quite for sometime and then replied that she was recovering slowly and will be okay soon. Sanskar left from there after sometime. Rest of the swara did all her daily work. At evening when she opened her fb account, she received friend request from sanskar. She hurriedly accepted that with a big smile. Day started passing and there talks and chats became more and more long. Sanskar daily used to come in morning to take flowers. This was not normal for swara,she was not this much open with anyone expect her family and kavita. She usually took time to get open with unknown people. Life have thought her a big lesson with her birth only that we should not trust anyone blindly. Sometime she used to thought not to talk much with sanskar because it was barely 15 days of their friendship but every time she lost herself in his talks. It was another Sunday and swara was expecting sanskar to come at her home but she got disappointed after seeing his msg that he was going somewhere with his friends. Swara just simply replied okay to him. The day ran fast,next day sanskar was there on time for flowers, swara opened the door with a smile and gave him the bunch of flowers, as sanskar opened his mouth to say anything ,someone called swara’s name. When they looked at voice’s direction,they found two girls of their age standing there with a confused look.
- Swa: kavita, kavya. You both here at this time.
- Kavya(with a cheeky smile): don’t you wanted us to see him giving flowers to you.
- San: no i am not giving flowers to her. She give me flowers daily.
- Kavita: oh mr. Why will she give you flowers? Btw who are you? I am seeing you first time here? You are not from this building i think and i have not seen you before with swara?? And…
- San: itne sare question ek sath dekh k to me exam me bhi ghabra jata tha. Swara, you tell her why am i here.
- Swara introduced kavita and kavya to sanskar. She explained everything to them in 2 minutes and sanskar kept nodding on her talks like a kid.
- Swa: this was it? But whta are you both doing here at this time?
- Kavya: we are here to invite you in my birthday party.
- San: swara, i am leaving. I am getting late for office. Bye..
- Kavya: sanskar, i am inviting you too for my birthday. Would you come?
- San: actually wo…
- Kavya: oh sanskar. Now plz don’t start giving excuses like swara give to ignore parties.
- Sanskar was hesitate but he said yes because kavya insisted him. After saying yes to attend kavya’s birthday party which as going to held after three days, sanskar came out hurriedly. He was already late for office now and same goes with swara and kavita. So swara kavita and kavya also left from swara’s house.
- On the way of swara’s office in kavya’s car..
- Kavita: kavya, what was the need to invite that sanskar in your party?
- Kavya: oh come on babe. Khusiyan bantne se badhti hai. It’s my birthday party so i will feel as good as many people will enjoy it and he is too cute to ignore him.
- Kavita: your logics are always dumb only and he is not our friend.
- Kavya: he is swara’s friend na??
- Kavita: swara just know him. He is not her friend or anything. Hai na swara?
- Swara who was listening their conversation with a weird expression, didn’t know how to answer. She knew sanskar from 15 days only but still she considered him as his good friend.
- Swa: kavi, i know him from some days only but he is a good friend of mine. He is a good guy.
- Kavita: me do weeks k office tour pr kya chali gai tune to dost hi badal liye.
- Swa: yesa nhi hai kavu.
- Kavita: rehne de mujhe nhi sun na teri safai. Bas me itna chahti hu ki tu chahe jitne naye dost bana le, pe unme se koi tujhe hurt na kre bas.
- Swa: aww you love me this much?
- Kavya: oh madam, ab apna drama band kro or utro. Office aa gaya hai tum logo ka. Abhi mujhe or bhi logo ko invite krne jana hai.
- Swara and kavita came out from the car. Kavya left from there. Rest of the day sanskar kept massaging swara asking her about party. He was not sure about coming in party and was asking swara to decide for him. He didn’t want to join them because he didn’t know them but still somewhere it seemed in his talks that he wanted to come. Finally swara told him to come in party with her. They decided that they will come back if sanskar would not feel good there. Finally there arrived the evening of party. Swara put that party dress which sanskar and kavita had selected for her. Yes, their all gang swasan, kavita, kavya and his boyfriend sahil had done the shopping together for party. Swara didn’t has any good dress for party. Kavita was the one who used to chose most off the stuff for swara. She had chosen other dress for her and sanskar had chosen another. Both argued for long time and finally swara came out with another dress, kavita and sanskar both approved that. Sanskar, swara, kavita and adiya(common friend of swara and kavita) all went together to the party. All was going well but everything didn’t end up with good note. Something happened in party which was embarrassing for swasan and many more stupid things.
