Episode # 12:-

Swara: "Okay, you don't want to see me alive, do you? That's why you're not waking up! Fine, do what you want, Sanskar, but I'll do what I want too. I'll go far away from you... then you'll see!"

Swara, with tears blurring her vision, closed her eyes tightly. She raised the scissor in her trembling hand, her heart aching as she prepared to stab herself. Just as she was about to strike, someone grabbed her hand firmly, yanking the scissor away from her grasp.

Suddenly, a sharp slap landed across her face.

Swara: "Aahh..." she cried out, her eyes still closed, tears streaming down her cheeks.

She felt herself being jerked by her shoulders, the grip firm and unyielding.

Someone: "What the hell, Swara? What on earth do you think you're doing?"

Swara's eyes flew open at the sound of the voice. She blinked in shock, staring at the person before her.

It was Sanskar.

Swara: "Sanskar... Sanskar!" she gasped, her voice filled with disbelief and joy.

Sanskar (angry and worried): "Yes, it's me! What the hell were you trying to do? Have you lost your mind?"

Swara, still in shock, could only stare at him in confusion and joy. She was overwhelmed, seeing him standing in front of her, perfectly fine. She looked around, trying to make sense of everything. The machines, the ICU... none of it was there anymore. Instead, they were in a simple private hospital room.

Swara: "But... the machines... You were lying there... bleeding... I saw it..." she whispered, pointing toward the bed.

Sanskar (bewildered): "Machines? ICU? Swara, what are you talking about? This is a private room. Why would there be any machines? And why would I be lying there?"

Swara blinked, her mind racing to make sense of it. She looked up at Sanskar again, scanning him from head to toe. He was perfectly fine, standing in front of her, alive and well. No blood, no wounds. Only concern was etched on his face.

Her eyes filled with tears, and before she could stop herself, she threw her arms around him, hugging him tightly. Sanskar was taken aback but wrapped his arms around her just as tightly, pulling her close.

Swara (sobbing into his chest): "I... I thought I lost you... You were... bleeding... I saw everything... Arjun... he..."

Sanskar's expression softened as he listened to her, though his mind raced with confusion. After a moment, realization dawned on him.

Sanskar: "Swara... it was just a dream."

Swara pulled back slightly, staring at him in disbelief.

Sanskar: "None of that happened. You're safe... and I'm right here. You were dreaming, love."

Swara stared at him, the realization sinking in. It was all just a nightmare—a cruel, vivid nightmare. She had been so lost in her fear and grief that it had felt real. Tears streamed down her cheeks again, but this time they were tears of relief.

Sanskar wiped her tears gently with his thumb, his gaze softening further.

Sanskar: "I'm not going anywhere, Swara. I'm here, and I'm fine. You don't have to worry anymore."
