Advertisement
Enjoy reading.
Engagement was done successfully. Days passed and marriage day was coming near. So, Everyone got busy in preparations. One week passed like this and only one week left for the marriage.
In all these days, Sanskar tried his best to keep Arshit away from Swara. He didn't go to Gadodia house in this one week and didn't let Arshit go also with Ap.
On the other hand, Swara was mostly occupied in her thoughts about past, Arshit and sometimes feels sad with Ragini harsh words. Laksh was busy with Ragini in enjoying his life before marriage. Ladies were busy in shopping and all. In this one week, Ap was truly impressed with Swara, and decided something.
At night mm :
Ap and dp were in there room. Ap decided to talk to dp.
Ap: ji, I want to talk about something.
Dp: yes say , I m listening.
Ap: I was thinking, how about Sanskar get married to Swara.
Dp:( shocked) whatt?
Ap: yes ji, Swara is very good and she take care of Arshit also very well. Arshit will never get better mother than swara.
Dp: you are saying this. Who was once against Swara.
Ap: I know ji, that time I thought wrong about her but watching her care and love toward everyone, I can assure that she must haven't done anything wrong.
Dp: And what about her disability, She cannot speak?
Ap: I know, Once I thought her disability will... ( Stops) but that time my thinking was not appropriate but Swara changed my views.
Dp: ( happy) okk but what about Sanskar? will he accept it? Already he hate Swara so much?
Ap; You don't worry about that. I will talk to sanskar.
Dp: okk then, I will try to talk to Shekhar ji. May he accept it.
Ap: hope so.
After talking they slept.
Next day passed in usual preparations and other stuff. so, Ap didn't got time to talk to Sanskar and when she got free Sanskar was busy with office work or arshit and in another way she was also scared of Sanskar's reaction.
Next day was haldi. For haldi, Gadodia family came to mm. AP and DP welcomed them. Sanskar was in hall with arshit. Sanskar also went and took their blessing from Shekhar and Shomi.
Haldi function Started. Everyone applied haldi to Ragini. She was looking happy. Laksh was taking glances of her. On shomi and ap insistence Swara also applied haldi to Ragini. Ragini also didn't show any reaction because of mm family. After that haldi applied on Laksh. He was annoying with it saying all these are girlish thing.
Laksh: what ? Why mom, all these haldi and all are for the girls na?
Ap: Shut up Laksh! let me apply haldi to you.
Laksh: no no mom, It's looking so yuckkk..
Sujata: arey Laksh, you should apply it then you will also look so much beautiful just like Ragini.
Laksh: chachi, I m not beautiful. I m handsome.
Sujata: yes.. yes that only I m saying.
Ap: Laksh stay quiet.
Laksh: yes mom.., but...
Ap: chupp!!
Swara smiled watching Laksh's drama and went to take some water for herself. Suddenly, she feel someone tugging her dupatta. She turned to see Arshit was sitting on the floor with her dupatta in his hand. When she saw him, he ups his hands to take him in her arm. Swara look around to see if sanskar is around but didn't find him so she took arshit in her arms. Arshit smiled brightly and forward his hand toward water glass in swara hand. Swara understands that he wants water so she went and sat on sofa take arshit in her lap and made him drink water. He drinks it and giggle and clap his hands then he again started playing with swara hair. Swara also play with him.

Sanskar who sees all this from start got angry but looking at Arshit who was happily playing with Swara, he calm himself and didn't do anything because somewhere he was also happy seeing arshit happy. Shekhar and shomi saw Swara and smiled that there is someone who can give her happiness. Ap saw it and now she was confident about Swara.
Ap signaled Dp to talk to Shekhar ji nd he nods.
Dp: Shekhar ji, I wanna talk about something.
Shekhar( looking toward arswa (arshit- swara): ji, say..
Dp: Not here, lets go to study.
Shekhar nods and they left.
Shekhar: ji DP ji say what u want to say?
Dp; Actually Shekhar ji, I wanted to ask Swara's hand for Sanskar.
Shekhar: what? You know what are you saying?
Dp: yes, Shekhar ji, I and ap have taken this decision after thinking a lot.
Shekhar: So that your son again leave her and she face humiliation.( angry)
Dp( calmly): Calm down Shekhar ji. Firstly listen to me. Then only You say .
Shekhar: ( try to calm) okk.
Dp; I know what happened was wrong and we cannot change it but i want that everything go fine. see Shekhar ji, I want Swara as dil not only as Sanskar's wife but also as Arshit's mother. I know it's sound selfish but Arshit need a mother and only swara can give him true motherly love.
Shekhar: why ? Sanskar can marry any other girl whom he like.
Dp; yes, but he has fear that may that girl not able to give that much love to Arshit and you also know, it's not easy to find a girl who can accept and love him as a mother.
Shekhar: and why do u think swara will be a good mother to him? You also know that she cannot speak so how can u so sure about Swara?
Dp (smile): you also know why I m sure. You also have seen bonding between Swara and Arshit.
Shekhar nods thinking a bit.
Dp: I m not pressurising you. You may take your time to think and then you can take your decision. Now lets go, we have to attend guest also.
Shekhar think a bit then nods and both left the room.
Shekhar was thinking and looking at Swara who was so immersed in playing with that there is nothing in this world accept playing with him . She was making different faces and Arshit was also giggling and clapping.
Shekhar thinks to talk to swara once function got over.
After function, All guests have already left and now Gadodia family was also about to leave. Swara give Arshit to Ap who was sleeping peacefully after playing.
Shekhar: Ok DP ji we will take leave now.
Dp: ji
Sanskar: Laksh, now let ragini go. You can talk to her on phone. (tease him as Laksh was continuously looking at around Ragini).
Laksh: ye....yes ( clear his throat)
Everyone laugh and Laksh gets embarrassed.
Then Gadodia family take leave.
After that sanskar take Arshit from AP and went to his room and make him sleep on the bed. While everyone left to their respective rooms, Ap decided to talk to Sanskar about swara.
Sanskar room :
Sanskar made arshit sleep just then he heard a knock. He got up and went to open the door.
Sanskar: maa, You , at this time anything important?

Ap: yes Sanskar, I wanted to talk about something very important.
Sanskar nods and let her in.
Both sit on the couch.
Sanskar: yes maa, say..
Ap take a sigh and then speak.
Ap: sanskar why don't you want to get marry? Whatever happened with Kavita was not good. It's destiny.
You should try to move on.
Sanskar : Maa, again same topic. I already told my decision to you then also you...
Ap( interuppted): I know all that but you should think about Arshit also. Stop being selfish Sanskar.
Sanskar: Maa, I have told you many times before that I m enough for my son.
Ap: And you think a child don't need a mother? I know you can take care him and till I am alive I will also take care of him but a mother's affection and love can be given by a mother only and you also know that .
Sanskar : I understand what are u saying maa, but ...
Ap; but what sanskar?
Sanskar: you only think na maa, who will accept him like her own child?
Ap (smile): I know who will.
Sanskar: who?
Ap: Swara
sanskar: (shocked) SWARA!!
GADODIA HOUSE;
After coming from mm Ragini went to her room wishing good night to everyone for her beauty sleep.
Swara was about to go but shekhar stop her.
Shekhar: Swara wait, I want to talk about something.
Swara nods while Shomi look at Shekhar confused. They go to their room. (Shekhar-shomi room). They sat on bed.
Shekhar: Swara, whatever I m going to say, just listen carefully first.
Swara nods confusingly.
Shekhar explained everything that happened in mm about DP and his conversation.
Swara listen it carefully and become numb.
Shomi was also shocked but she also think that it would be good only for both Swara and Arshit. Swara was happy with Arshit and there is another reason she wants it to happen.
Shekhar: Swara I know, It's not easy for you to take any decision but you are not under any pressure.
He looked at swara then continued : I know swara whatever happened in past cannot changed but we should not let past affect our present or future beta. You can take all your time but you should think about Arshit also and yours too. After so many day, we saw you happy and he is the reason.
Swara nods and left to her room. She went inside slowly then close the door then tears fall from her eyes and she burst out cryingly thinking about her fate.
Back to mm ;
Sanskar: (shocked) SWARA!! what are you saying maa?
Ap; I m saying correct .
Sanskar: After whatever she tried to do, You are choosing Swara?
Ap: Sanskar, everytime what we saw or heard is not necessarily right. It may be something else. And after observing Swara these days, I m sure that she didn't do anything.
Sanskar: but maa...
Ap: you have also seen na, how happy Arshit was, when he was with Swara. He cannot get better mother than Swara. ( Take deep breathe and said)
I m mother Sanskar, I can see a perfect mother in Swara. Sanskar for once keep your past aside and then think, and then come to any conclusion. Whatever decision you will take, will decide your and Arshit future. Good night.
and she left after saying that.
Sanskar kept thinking about his mother's word and look at Arshit who was sleeping. He Remembers how Swara was playing with Arshit.
He went to window and think about past how everything got changed.
Mm;
In morning,
A guy is seen getting ready for office, once he get ready he went to another room and filled a bucket full of water and throw on the guy who was sleeping and murmuring in his dream. The guy jerked from his sleep and shout: FLOOD, TSUNAMI in my room!!

Alviona (undergoing Rewrite).
This fiction is going to undergo severe Editing and a Rewrite over next few months. Here is what it hopes to accomplish: 1) Fix the glaring issues from Style in every chapter 1-31 (Dialogues, POV switches and Head-hopping too much) 2) Add some new chapters in and justify the development between Sofia and Anita 3) Remove the info dumps and make it more organic 4) Finalize the genres that this fiction belongs to 5) Create warning in the synopsis relating to the contents of the fiction. 6) Overhaul and show what Mira's view on Alviona is (slowly) 7) Introduce new characters 8) Show chapters the way they were intended, as clues apparently were not visible at all! 9) Make Alviona a bit more serious. 10) Make me (Author) enjoy reading my own work more (yes! :)) Hi. I have been gone for quite a long while. With heart surgery and such that has happened two months ago, I had not had a chance to log on RR due to being hospitalized. I had some other issues that the admins were kind enough to deal with on this fiction. It's good to see everything in one piece. The synopsis has been removed. Chapter 1 should be coming out sometimes before christmas. A lot has changed. I hope for the better. Instead of edits, I have re-read every single chapter and found it to be unsatisfying. A lot did not make sense and unless you have previously speculated what Alviona is, many things she does won't fall into pieces. Well then, time to address all of this. Ladies and gentlelmen, this fiction is undergoing a full scale re-write. While the characters and developments stay the same, it's being done differently. So much that the world should feel darker as it should have been. For those who have stuck around and know the story: Awesome. I worked hard on this, and hope that you will like my re-write. For thos that are new: Welcome. Give me some time, as I am super sluggish. I don't know much time is some time, but I gurantee chapter 1 will be up before Christmas. This said, again, thank you and know that I am back. And that this fiction will be completed. AT ANY COST. I will update synopsis after I post chapter 1. I might post Alviona (revised, as this current one is far too.... simplified, watered down, and dissapointing version of it) seperately. Those that want this, here. But I don't want to add chapter 40. It won't make sense without the backup and world-building of re-write. It will piss myself off. Now then, let's write hm? *This beautiful piece of art is provided by Charee from DeviantArt* https://www.deviantart.com/chalii
