This chapter was geets self or should I say help from dadi to self realise everything and put everything into prespective and dadi as from experience knew how to handle this and how to make geet accept and also her love for maan she just needed a push which dadi gave and I understand maans thoughts too as she didn't say anything when he asked so he would take it as a no so when suddenly she agrees without informing him he would be hurt but also confused to why she did it but I really like this chapter and the way dadi handled it and I loved the analogy that dadi used but also the one geet used ' I couldn't hold on to a blank canvas and call myself a painter. I needed to paint first to see what I was capable of' I mean it just puts everything into place anyways can't wait for the next update and yes you have done amazingly to potray all these emotions and now it's come to the part where geet has realised where she stands and what she will do with a clear vision 😊

❤️Hasini❤️,

I loved the last two updates. It was a big twist. HP scenes were handled well...I loved it...it did not go overboard. The family's behavior was expected as per the societal norms. I am glad her father was on her side and was thankful to Maan. Maan was so caring and considerate about everything'a place to stay for her, calling Meera to Hindustan for her, making sure she gets her passport delivered to her, etc. Thank God the media had quieted down as well.

The proposal of Maan was unexpected'but I can understand where he comes from'he did not want to cross over and be impulsive with his emotions but at the same time..he could not help it. He could not see her in pain. He had tried everything from his side, his very best and he was going to give it one more shot to see if Geet was willing to accept him as he was to her. But her lack of response was the last straw for him. He could not do anything about it anymore. He could not stay with her and not get a yes from her, the only option he had to get away from there, from her because physical distance was the only way he could keep her away from affecting him and taking over his life. Mentally and emotionally she was within him.

I can understand Maan ' after his past, it took a lot of guts, courage and confidence on his side to come up and propose to Geet'and her lack of response must have bruised his ego and how else can he handle it besides running away. He was not used to ask or beg for something'he had always been in charge in his life'and life would literally at his doorstep everything he wanted something'and now how is he suppose to handle this!!!!!!!!!!

Geet was so right ' she was carrying too much of him with her and it would follow her wherever she went, did not matter if it was India, NY or SF. He was the air' she was breathing.

Hasini, I loved the way you portrayed love and attraction. It is so true'how is a person suppose to differentiate between love and attraction?

I cannot believe that Dadi was the catalyst in Geet agreeing to the SHAADI. Wow, she did know what she was doing. I loved her idea of Meera being busy in India'.which would make Geet miss him more and finally Meera going back to NY.

Babaji, indeed has sent Dadiji'to take care of everything between them.

I am glad Geet had broadened her options to and not just SF.

The ripple effect'amazing na'how one person in one instant can change your life and you are not the same anymore. Maan's Dadi is the best dadi ever'..she answered all her questions, concerns, confusions, insecurities in simple yet confident manner.

I loved how you used 'Footprints in the sand' here'.a human being is so scared n asks God why are there only one set of footprints'and God says'because I was carrying you in my arms'just amazing'yaar.

I could either have a new me around and lose him forever, or have him around forever and work towards a new me. This line hit me the hardest 'personally'it makes so much sense. You do not know what tomorrow has in hold for you'or if there will even be a tomorrow'it is all about being in the moment, in the present and accepting and embracing life as if comes towards you..because you do not know what the universe has planned for you. If you are scared and do not take the risk or do not take the opportunity that has been presented at that particular point in time than you mite not get that chance ever again in life'you sometimes you do have to take a plunge in life and trust in life and its process and have faith in the Omnipresent. .

I can understand Maan's shock'he had proposed and she had been quiet'and now 4 weeks later her answer was YES which was unexpected'and Maan did not know how to handle the situation. Also the fact, that she did not tell him personally and it came through Dadi.

Did she call Maan back? Is she still going to move to SF in search of her identity? How will it affect their relationship?

Love❤️

Rachana

I had promised to comment later- so here I am.

Can I say I am at peace after this update. I know Maan is feeling hurt that she agreed to marry him when Dadima asked but apparently rejected his heartfelt proposal. I am sure that is going to create trouble between the two of them as is the fact that she is probably going to want to move to SF. However, I am still at peace because finally she has accepted- she cannot live without him and more importantly she does not want to live without him either. She also has come to terms with the fact that they both are complex characters with their behaviour often influenced by bad experiences from the past. So I have a feeling or rather I am hoping that this new and improved Geet v 2.0 will not back down but will fight for Maan- coz I can see Maan reverting to his obstinate self very soon.

One line that had me a bit worried was when she said what would happen if Maan or Geet involuntarily compared the other with their ex? I am assuming you mean vocally since Geet has subconsciously been comparing Maan with Dev from the start of their relationship. While realistic (especially given how short tempered both of them are), this doesn't sound too promising-Are you by any chance dropping hints for future tracks?

On HP track- Can I say I do not think that this is the end of Geet's family- no family forgets their children so easily unlike the show where they sort of totally forgot that Geet existed- including her mother and Father!!! So I think they will be back

Anyhoo, I have decided not to worry about any of these but rather wait for the wedding!

I have read 48 and 49 so many times already :) <I know I need to get a life or rather catch up on the huge sleep debt >

hiii hasini.........😛


i had a rough day today...
i tried posting comments for ur update.........but something or the other happens .and i am forced to type it all once again.........

i am typing this for the third time.........but i feel obliged to give u ur well deserved appreciation and feedback on this fabulous update..........coz u have done an exceeding outstanding update

u always give ur readers something to ponder over at the end of ur update....well thats the speciality of your ff

its lik a mind chow for me that i get to reflect and chew over in my mind for the rest of the remaining day.........

now back to ur update...what can i say about it.........it was beautiful...........

i wonder how u come up with beautiful analogies that leaves me completely dumbstruck with awe

the ripple effect theory....catterpillar to butterfly example...painter and his canvas instance are like gems and pearls of wisdom.......

geet realising that maan tries to create physical distance whereas geet tries to put mental distance wenever they are not ready to face each other.....captured the essence of their actions in a nut shell.....hats off to u

the two angels meera and dadi convo and their master plan to make geet agree to marry maan was wonderful

maan keeping tab on geet inspite of being angry, frustrated over her response to his proposal.........shows his unconditional and irrevocable love for her....

thanxx for creating such a wonderful male lead........someone about whom we can dream and drool over....😆😆😆😆


dadi and geet convo was the showstealer of the update......
dadi hearing geet out..her fears, insecurities,her ambitions,the emotional baggage that she had been carrying and trying to get rid of...showed that dadi is not only experienced but receptive towards others.....


glad that she didnt dismiss geet's questions as trivial.....loved the way dadi handled geet's questions patiently offering answers, explanations and helping her to make up her mind

at the end of the convo when geet feels happy and relieved for having found a man and his dadi as family who are ready to give her their unconditional and unflinching support wenever need them...makes the readers feel happy and relieved for geet

geet realising that her own family disowned and shunned her ....but dadi and maan ready to accept her inspite of her having a scarred past and helping her to start afresh.. was wonderfully penned down

its indeed a brilliant point made by u...that its helpful to have elders to guide you in ur life....wen we feel confused, unsure of what next to do........
its lik an eyeopener to many youngsters that we simply cant dismiss our elders....but try to realign our thoughts....and try to make them part of our thought process and include them.....

maan confused on having being informed by dadi that geet has agreed to marry him..........is a natural and expected reaction from him.....
its quite obvious coz he thought that she had rejected him.....and now out of the blue she has agreed..........
well the second thought about marrying geet ...hope its just pre- marriage jitters.....that normally ppl have ....whether r they marrying the right person, for right reasons..with right expectations.

looking forward for some more maan's monologues on this issue...

i wud lik to see heart to heart chat between M and G before their marriage so that they are able to understand each other better, bring back the warmth in their realationship.....clear their misunderstandings,and to have reasonable expectations from each other

overall a master blaster update....10/10

and congrats on opening new thread
keep writing
and take ample rest .........willing to wait longer for your next wonderful update
love u and ur ff
