"Relationships are like glass. Sometimes it's better to leave them broken than try to hurt yourself putting it back together."

Samar was merrily wandering around the dinning hall, when he bumped into someone. Making the person stumbled a bit, to which he nervously apologized to him.

Samar : Ugh! Sorry Uncle.

The person saw Samar with teary eyes and sad smile. He bend down on his knees, to match with the height of little chipmunks. He is none another than Ansh. He smiled and spoked to him, being emotional.

Ansh : Hey buddy!

Samar : Hi Uncle! (extends his hand) nice to meet you. (smiles innocently) I am Samar, you can call me Sam, Sammy or whatever you liked. (put his forefinger on his chin, like thinking something) But, I didn't saw you before, when I reached here. Aap yahi rahte ho?! Aap ka Sanskaar papa ke... friend ho?!.....

And, he keeps on his pitter-patter non stop. While, Ansh was just listening to his talks quietly, with heavy heart and glossy eyes.  There was tsunami of emotions were turning inside his heart, seeing his son for the very first time in these years.
All he could was on nine cloud today, his happiness is somewhat out of bound and was crestfallen at the same moment, that he hasn't had any right on him. All this is, just because of him. The guilt is drowning him from inside but he couldn't do anything to lesser this pain. He had to lived with it, as it is his own destiny he chose it.

Grief is not as heavy as guilt, but it takes more away from you.

Before he could muster courage to spoke to his son. Sarah who was passing from there,saw Ansh and Samar together. Which lead to boiled her blood. She came there, being furious and called Samar with a loud spat. Making both Ansh and Samar jolted at there place.

Sarah : SAMAR!

She came forward furiously and held Samar's hand.

Sarah: HOW DARE YOU! Tumhari himmat bhi kaise hui mere bete se baat karne ki.... Haa?! Door raho mujhse aur mere bete se!

Ansh tries to speak to her.

Ansh: You... Are getting it wrong Sarah...

Sarah : SHUT UP! MR. ANSH KAPOOR. Not a word! Not a word out of your mouth. I don't want to hear any sort of rubbish from you. (joined her both hands infront of him) Chain se jeene do hume. Just leave us alone like you did to us before. Just leave us for Godsake!

Saying this, she took Samar with her, very far away from him forever. And there he is, standing down in dumps, and drowning himself in the gloominess of grief and guilt.

Guilt isn't always a rational thing. Guilt is a weight that will crush you whether you deserve it or not.

Swara and Sanskaar were standing, near window and gazing at glittering stars, merrily. Gazing the  glowing sky for hours, at night was like their daily routine, since five years and they loved to spends time in solace of silence and loved to be in each others arms. Cuddling, exhaling soft breaths and cherishing the moment together.
