Swara- A tale of Trust & Betrayal (Episode 34)

Part-32

Guys… I know I posted late… But surprises are always late!! Read till the end and tell me if the posting my ff late is justified or not!! 😛

Sumi: you all might be thinking why am I sharing my daughter’s birth secret to you? Sanskaar should know this one or the other day… But, because of Laksh’s enquiry I had to reveal this to you both (pointing RagLak)

Laksh: Aunty… I’m really sorry… I never wanted to involve in your personal matters, but we couldn’t digest the fact that Swara is being hypnotized by someone… And we also had doubt that Swara is Sasirekha… Sanskaar’s w…. (Before he could complete Ragini stopped him)

Sumi: Sanskaar’s wife in his past life na!! (Sanskaar was hell shocked listening this… He didn’t expect that they all knew this… While Sumi continued) Even Shona knows this… And that was the reason we had to give Shona treatment…

Sanskaar: But why?

Sumi: Swara know about her past life Sanskaar beta… That too when she was 7 years old… She said that she was born for her Raghav… We thought Swara was possessed… We took her to many temples, baba’s, Hospitals… No one could make her normal… She stopped eating… She begged us to take to Raghav… But, where can we find Raghav? Shekhar went to Karnataka to investigate about this issue… He couldn’t get much detail about Raghav… He returned back to Kolkata… We lost all hopes… One day a friend of his suggested about Dr.Prakash Banerjee… We went there to give a last try… He gave hypnotic treatment to Shona … He made her forget everything through hypnotic suggestions… She was fine until she met Sanskaar… After meeting Sanskaar she got strange dreams… She suffered with night terrors… Every night she shouted, cried, Laughed… The only common thing she did was calling Raghav and Sanskaar… We again took her to Dr. Prakash… After treatment he suggested us to send her to abroad in the name of higher studies… We did the same… There but Shona met with accident… And, the reason was Amaya… So we bought her back to India… She recovered soon… Shekhar joined her in medical college using his influence… Sammu helped Shona adjusting there… Sammu also know about her as she was cousin of Arnav who is trainee under Dr. Prakash Banerjee…

Sanskaar: I understand why Swara regained her memory after meeting me… Because I’m that Raghav whom Swara loved in her last life… But, I don’t know what happened in the past…

Shekhar: That you will know…

Sanskaar: How?

Shekhar: Shona was taken into trance using hypnotic suggestion… There she revealed her past… But, when a person is taken into hypnotic suggestion they can answer only one word questions… So, whatever she told was recorded… I will send you that files… You can listen them whenever you’ve time Sanskaar!!

Sanskaar: Sure Uncle… But, what happened in London?? Who is Amaya?

Sumi: Amaya was Swara’s best friend… She was native of London… Amaya and Shona were very good friends… Don’t know what happened but she died in an accident… Shona was too depressed with her death… We planned to bring her back but before that only Swara met with accident…

Sanskaar: What? Amaya died? When? How?

Shekhar: We don’t know that beta!! But Shona blamed herself for Amaya’s death and in fact tried to commit suicide… It was not accident… (Looking at Sumi) We hid this from everyone… We brought her here and Dr. Prakash treated her… He tried to erase those memories… But, human brain is an impossible thing… No one can erase its memories… Not even death… Few memories will carry forward to the next life too!! When Shona can’t forget her past life memories… How can she forget her present life memories…? A day before you all went to Karnataka… Shona had drawn sketch of Amaya… That’s the reason we took her again to Dr. Prakash…

Sumi: We are worried for our Shona… How long does she have to bear this torture? How long does she have to take this treatment? (With tears)

Sanskaar: Aunty… Please control yourself… Everything will become that too very soon!! I promise that!!

Shekhar: We hope that happens!!

RagLak: That will happen uncle, We will take care of Shona!!

Sumi: Thanks a lot for your love towards Shona!! Sanskaar beta… Arnav will send you those audio files by tomorrow!! Now, we will leave!!

Everyone left towards their respective homes… The dark night persuaded the light just like Swara’s thoughts persuaded their mind… It reflected the gloominess in their heart!! There are not in a stage analyze anything…. That night Sanskaar received a mail from reputed airlines… It was an offer letter for Sanskaar to work as pilot in their airlines… But, he should go there in a week!! Sanskaar is now confused… It is his ambition to work as pilot… But, Swara also need him… He thinks to sort out everything before he leaves for job… He has only one week to set everything right… He immediately reminded Arnav to send him those audio files… Arnav after half-an- hour replied him with those audio files… Sanskaar plugged in headphones and before he could listen to those files Annapurna called him for dinner… He cursed his fate for such obstacles while knowing his past…

Sanskaar: Mom, I’m not hungry… Don’t disturb me now…

Annapurna: Sanskaar… Your father wants to talk something important to you…

Sanskaar: (Realizes that he has to inform about his offer letter) Okay mom, I’m coming… You go…

Annapurna left and Sanskaar connected his phone to laptop through USB cable for charging as he couldn’t find his charger… He checked notifications while Annapurna called him… He immediately left the room by placing his phone on the laptop!!

There Swara was smiling thinking about Sanskaar and their kiss… She wondered how her life was changed in just a week span… Sanskaar will be hers forever… No one will ever separate them… Still her heart says something else… Our soul will always predict few things… It will receive signals from our future life and tries to decode them… But, life isn’t that simple… If one guesses what happens in their future then no one can treasure the precious present… Swara’s life is no different… Her eyes slowly closed and her subconscious thoughts woke up… It was a beautiful past with Sanskaar… Sorry, Raghav… Sasi knows how much Raghav loves her… But, Swara doesn’t know anything about it… But, Sasi in her knows that Sanskaar is her Raghav… She craved for his love, for his touch… She got it after long wait… Their love story was incomplete…. She came back to re-write her love story… Will the destiny allows her to write a happy ending??

Sanskaar returned to his room after his dinner… It was raining heavily… Sanskaar was shocked to see that the closed windows of his room are open and his phone is soaked in huge drops of rain… Shit… He exclaimed… But, it is of no use… He understood that someone did it intentionally but right now listening to Swara’s story is more important than finding the culprit… Sanskaar immediately switched on his laptop and checked whether all the files were transferred via USB port or not… Luckily all files were transferred… He sighed in relief… He locked the door and plugged his ear phones and switched auto play so that he could hear without interruption… He didn’t notice that transformer which supplies electricity to his locality blasted resulting in power cut and inverter in his house was broken already!! Dr. Prakash Banerjee started speaking softly…

Swara: My father Vikram singh was the powerful king of the Parasurama bhumi… He was a great ruler… He treated the people in the kingdom as his own children… I’m his only daughter… He never treated me as daughter but as his son…

Dr.Prakash: Does Raghav know about this?

Swara: No… My father hid this from Raghav…

Dr.Prakash: But, why?

Swara: Because my father doesn’t want Raghav to have negative impression on his father…

Dr.Prakash: Okay… How did love blossom between you??

Swara: ————-

Dr.Prakash: Sasirekha?

Swara: Haan

Dr.Prakash: How did you die?

Swara: I don’t remember… My heads paining…

(The effect of the sedative decreased… Hence, Swara couldn’t answer his questions… At this point Dr.Prakash can’t give her more sedative… So he stopped his session for that day)

Dr.Prakash: Okay… Take a deep breathe… You’re not Sasirekha now… You are Swara Bose… You will now forget everything happened in this session… This session is erased from your memory… You no more remember who Dr.Prakash is… You are now lying on your bed… You are going to a deep sleep… You’re going to deep sleep… you are sleeping peacefully without any dreams…

The audio clip ended as Dr.Prakash took Swara out of trance… Sanskaar felt disgusting to hear about his father in his past life… He was also shocked to learn that Swara at the age of 15 has gone through a trauma because of her past life… He waited for the next clip to play… The clip started with Dr.Prakash continuing his questions from the last session… This time he gave more powerful sedative so that he can question her for long time…

Dr.Prakash: Sasirekha??

Swara: Yes

Dr.Prakash: How was your married life with Raghav??

Swara: Raghav loved me so much… He always pampered me… He also took the responsibility to rule our land… He was a man of every girls dream… I always felt that I was lucky to make him mine… He saved me from every danger…

Dr.Prakash: If Raghav is there with you to save you from dangers… Then how did you die?

Swara: Because Raghav killed me…

Sanskaar scandalized for a moment… He never thought that he was a ruthless person who killed his love… Till now he only saw flashes of a beautiful girl getting stabbed… Now, he realized that she is none other than his Swara… and he was the one who stabbed her… It seemed like time halted for once and his memory train took him back to that worst moment which never thought would happen…

She didn’t try to run… She stood right in front of him like a goddess of love… How could he ever do that?? She trusted him and he betrayed her!! But, why?? She gave up…His sword ran through her body piercing her skin, flesh…. Blood was oozing out!!! Yet she felt no pain!! He might kill her but not her love!! She smiled weakly at him and fell on the ground… I love… that’s all she could say before closing her eyes may be forever!!

I know you all are shocked after this twist… But picture abi baakhi hai mere doston… Wait for more…
