Hii everyone...!! Thank you so much for all your lovely comments on the last part. That really means a lot to me. Here you all go with the next part...

******

"THIS ONE IS FOR YOU SANSKAAR. I LOVE YOU!!"

The moment he reads the message Sanskaar already knows where Swara might possibly be. Sending a quick text message to Navtej he runs towards the auditorium :

I KNOW WHERE SWARA IS. COME TO THE UNIVERSITY AUDITORIUM.

As soon as Navtej reads the message he informs the doctor and runs back to the University.

-------------------.

Sanskaar opens the huge wooden doors to the auditorium and soon enough Swara's voice starts getting audible to him. He takes a deep breath cursing himself for leaving her back there at the hospital as his eyes fall on her standing form right in the middle of the stage introducing herself to the judges.

Sanskaar: (to himself) God Swara!! Why don't you listen to me?!!

He moves forwards to stop her but gets blocked by the organizers from climbing up the stage. Before he could do anything else, Swara's gaze gets locked with his for a moment as she mouths 'I Love You' to him and starts singing...

Jheeni hai bheeni hai khushboo teri hai
Main mehak rahi hoon
Jheeni hai bheeni hai khushboo teri hai
Main mehak rahi hoon

(She looks at Sanskaar again and he shakes his head making a yet again futile attempt of stopping her but she smiles and signs him that she's fine and that she can do this)

Khatti hai, meethi hai, boliyan teri hain
Main chehak rahi hoon
Tu chahat purani shararat nayi hai
Yaqeen toh dila de, tu hai ya nahi hai
Aaye haaye.. zubaan bhi phisalne lagi

Hui hui main toh hui shayrana hui
Hui hui main toh hui shayrana hui
Gungunane lagi aashiqana hui
Hui hui main toh hui shayrana hui
Oo.. aa.. shayarana huyi
Main shayrana shayrana shayrana hui

(Navtej reaches there too and looks at Sanskaar and then at Swara...

Navi: She ran from the hospital to sing?

Sanskaar: (almost choking) I should have guessed it already. If the things get even worse it would all be my fault.

Navi: (keeps his hand on Sanskaar's shoulder) Everything will be fine.

With hope filled eyes both of them look at Swara who is now singing with her eyes closed reminiscing some very beautiful old memories she has treasured with Sanskaar)

Chaand chhal ke chal diya hai
Din mein hi nikal liya hai
Khwaab tod laya hai mere liye naye
Aage peechhe baahein kheenche
Ud rahi hain yeh hawaayein
Raahein dhoondh laayi hain mere liye nayi

Shayarana, shayarana ho gayi main shayarana
Shayarana, shayarana sha ra ra ra shayarana..

(She opens her eyes and smiles looking at Sanskaar as if all the words are coming right from her heart and are meant only for him)

Tu hasrat puraani, tu aadat nayi hai
Yaqeen to dila de tu hai ya nahi hai
Aaye haaye zubaan bhi phisalne lagi

Hui hui main to hui shayarana hui
Hui hui main to hui shayarana hui
Gungunaane lagi aashiqana hui
Hui hui main to hui shayarana hui
Oo ow wo.. shayarana hui
Pa para ra para ra ra
Pa pa pa para aa ee..
Pa ra ra ra..

Kahein jo sakhiyan
Sune jo takiyaan
Tu hai woh kahaani

Kahein jo sakhiyan
Sune jo takiyaan
Tu hai woh kahaani

Daudi jo nas mein
Rahe na bas mein
Tu hai woh ravaani

Main jis pe fidaa hoon ada ban gaya tu
Jo sach ho gayi woh duaa ban gaya tu
Ki haaye zubaan bhi phisalne lage

Hui hui main to hui shayrana hui
Hui hui main to hui shayrana hui
Shayarana o o shayarana o..
O shayarana shayarana shayarana
Shayarana na na na na shana na na na na

Just a few moments before she is about to end the song she starts coughing holding the mike stand tightly as a tear drop rolls down from the corner of her eyes, enough for letting Sanskaar feel the pain she's going through. Pushing away all the organizers he runs up to the stage and catches her just as she is about to faint...

Sanskaar: (calls out to her as her eyes get closed) Swara! Swara! Why don't you listen to me? Why the hell did you run away from the hospital?

He picks her up in his arms and starts getting down from the stage when Swara opens her eyes...

Swara: (in a barely audible choking voice) Sanskaar. Leave me. The ending is still left.

Sanskaar: (growls angrily) To hell with your ending! You are going hospital right now!

The organizers try to enquire about the whole matter. Navtej steps forwards and says...

Navi: Sanskaar, you take her to the hospital. I'll explain the situation to them.

Sanskaar: (nods his head) Thanks Navi.

Navi: Don't mention. You guys are my friends. That's the least I can do for you both. Now go.

----------------.

At the hospital, Sanskaar is pacing up and down Swara's room as the doctor is inspecting her current situation. Navi also joins them as soon as he explains everything to the organizers. After a few minutes, the doctor smiles handing a glass of water to her as Sanskaar makes her sit resting against the wall.

Doctor: There's nothing much to worry about. But I still suggest you shouldn't have gone for singing. Now it will take at least four more days for you to heal otherwise it would have been just one or two more days.

Sanskaar: (angrily) See. What the hell were you thinking? Now you have made the situation even worse.

Swara takes each and every scolding with her head hung down and tracing the rim of the glass with her thumb.

Doctor: Your fiancé cares a lot about you Swara. At least for his sake, listen to him for a few days. And I'll discharge you by tomorrow's afternoon, so, please don't run away again.

Swara: (smiles) I won't doctor. (just then she realizes something) Wait. What?!! Fiancé?

Sanskaar chokes and starts coughing signaling Navtej to take the doctor away.

Navi: (screams) Aahh! Doctor! I think there is something wrong with my stomach. Do you mind checking for once?

Doctor: What happened? Where do you feel the pain?

Navi: (notices that everyone is distracted) Umm. I think it's fine. Maybe I ate a little bit over during the breakfast.

Doctor: Sure? You're fine, right?

Navi: Yeah sure! Why don't you go and check your other patients too. We'll let you know if there's any problem.

Doctor: Okay! Then I'll come back in an hour.

Everyone nods their heads and the doctor leaves for visiting the other patients in the hospital.

----------------.

Swara: (narrows her eyes) Excuse me! What was that? Fiancé? When did we get engaged?

Sanskaar: Shut up Swara! The copyright of getting angry today is only mine.

Swara: Areyy!

Sanskaar: (angrily) What 'areyy'?!! Dammit, you would have lost your voice! Do you even realize what does that mean?

Swara: But I haven't. See, I'm fine.

Sanskaar: Stop saying that you are fine because you are not. What was the need of going?

Swara: So, you expect me lay down on this bed and relax even after knowing that you won't participate as I'm not able to do so!

Sanskaar: (shocked) You heard that? So, you weren't sleeping then?

Swara: Will you promise me one thing?

Sanskaar: Huhh! That's not the answer to my question!

Swara: Sanskaar! Promise me that no matter whether I make into the next round or not you'll participate in the round one tomorrow and you'll give your best in that.

Sanskaar: But how can I? You're getting discharged tomorrow!

Swara: Exactly! I'm getting discharged tomorrow which means I'm perfectly fine. And I promise I won't run away this time. But in return you have to promise me that you will participate tomorrow. You can get me discharged from here after the competition. I'll wait for you till then.

Navi: I support Swara, Sanskaar. I think that you should participate. She bore so much pain just to make you participate.

Swara: (looks at Sanskaar with hopeful eyes and forwards her palm towards him) So, promise?

Sanskaar: (holds her palm and nods his head slowly) Promise!

Swara: (exclaims with joy) Now that's why I love you so much.

She is about to kiss him out of excitement but Navtej coughs from behind and she retreats back shyly looking everywhere but him. Sanskaar chuckles seeing her expressions and kisses her forehead cupping her cheeks.

Sanskaar: Now, take some rest. I'll go and have a talk with the doctor.

Swara nods her head lying on the bed and Sanskaar leaves kisses her forehead one more time.

------------------.

Next day, Swara is super excited as Sanskaar could come any next moment to get her discharged from the hospital.

Near about one in the afternoon, Sanskaar enters her room...

Sanskaar: Come, let's go. You've been discharged.

Swara: How was your competition?

Sanskaar: It was good!

Swara: What did you paint?

Sanskaar: Stop asking questions Swara and get ready first?

He picks up her jacket and makes her wear that whereas on the other side Swara keeps on ranting...

Swara: Why aren't you telling me? What did you make? Can I see it? Will they allow me?

Sanskaar: (keeps her palm on her mouth) Geez! Can you please keep quiet for a moment?

Swara nods her head and Sanskaar removes his hand. He picks up a muffler but she starts all over again...

Swara: So, will they allow me to see it? I will keep quiet. I won't say anything. I'll just see it and come back quickly. Wait! Why are you holding this muffler?

Sanskaar: If you are not going to be quiet in the next moment, I'll tie this around your mouth.

Swara: When did I say anything?

Sanskaar: Yeah right! I really wonder whether it was throat that got hurt or your brain.

Swara: But why aren't you answering my questions?

Sanskaar: Alright fine. I'll take you to the exhibition they are holding for the paintings made today. But only on one condition!

Swara: What?

Sanskaar: You have to tie this muffler.

Swara: (immediately covers her mouth with her hands) On my mouth?!!

Sanskaar: Shut up, Swara. Not on your mouth.

He holds her hand and pulls her closer tying the muffler around her neck.

Swara: But why are you tying this muffler. You know I don't like them.

Sanskaar: I know but the doctor has asked to keep your throat warm, so that it gets better soon. I have to do this all thanks to your daredevil mode yesterday.

Swara: But I don't want to.

Sanskaar: Do you want to see my painting or not?

Swara: Yes.

Sanskaar: Then no further arguments. Tie this muffler quietly.

Swara makes some weird faces before nodding her head. Later, completing all the remaining formalities both of them leave for the university where Navi is already having the first round of the competition.

------------------.

Sanskaar takes Swara to the Art Gallery where all the paintings have been put on for a small exhibition for all the judges and contestants.

As they walk down the exhibition hall, the paintings seem to be transcending them to an entirely different world. From delicate to bold, subtle to dramatic, fine to coarse one could see possibly every piece of art over there. But what grabs Swara's attention is a painting hanging in the corner of the hall. The moment her eyes fall on the painting she stops dead in her tracks.

He did it. He did it again!!

Sanskaar has painted her again!!

She turns around to look at him to which he just smiles at her holding her shoulders and turns her again to face the painting.

Sanskaar: The theme they gave was 'Beauty with determination' and I don't think so I could present it in any way better than this. What you did for me yesterday was the only thing that crossed my mind as soon as I heard the theme.

Swara looks at the painting again. She could have never imagined him to paint this. Just the day before, she had been singing on the stage and today he painted her in that moment or should she say that he captured her in that moment.

'Swara is standing right in the middle of the stage holding the mike. Tears brimming her eyes as she feels the pain and a tear drop shining at the corner of her right eye. The lights in the backdrop, the shine of the entire stage seem to be losing their essence in front of her shining tear.' She can already tell that the painting is lot more beautiful than how she looked the day before. Each and every detail is so precise that it becomes hard for her to tear her gaze away. She couldn't stop staring at the painting. They have been together for almost four years now yet this man has a new shade to show every next moment. Hardly 24 hours ago, he had been shouting on her for being so careless about herself and now seeing this painting she feels more than glad that she ran away from the hospital or else this beautiful piece of art would have never been made.

No matter what the results would be, but for her he's already the winner.

Sanskaar: So, how's it?

Swara: I don't think that words would suffice to express how am I feeling right now!

Sanskaar: I'll take that as a compliment then.

Swara: (chuckles a little and nods her head) Yes, you can say that.

Sanskaar: Alright, enough of experiments for your throat today. Now, go back to the hostel and have some rest.

Swara: (smiles) As you say Mr. Boyfriend!

Sanskaar: Aah! Now I realize it has been since I heard this nickname.

Swara: Stop being so dramatic Sanskaar. Let's go.

Later, Sanskaar drops Swara at her hostel and goes to meet Navtej after his competition.

Sanskaar: So, how did it go?

Navi: Good enough! Where is Swara?

Sanskaar: I dropped her at the hostel few minutes ago.

Navi: So what now?

Sanskaar: About?

Navi: I'm pretty sure you are not going to leave that brother-sister duo. Though I haven't met them yet but I hate them already. So, I'm totally in.

Sanskaar: You're right! I have had enough of them. For the last four years whatever they have been doing, I have been taking it playfully but what they have done this time is really going to cost them something.

Navi: But what are you going to do?

Sanskaar: Something that they'll never forget, not at least in this life. Let's go.

With this both of them walk out of the University campus heading towards the market.

Precap: Face-off. Second round.
