These two remind me of a phrase: bas chaar din ki chandni hai phir kaali raat hai'their happiness is always short lived! Hasini....are you sure you are not a sadist in disguise as an author😆?

I absolutely loved their playful interaction in the train....Geet becoming so bold is something I had not seen coming...and just like Maan I was pleasantly shocked. There are so many layers to all of us and its amazing just how much we are willing to reveal if made to feel secure!

Given how much of a loner Maan is.....I would have never guessed that he had a sibling!..(well played, Hasini! Just when I think I have you figured out you throw me a curveball👏) I wonder if his sister's desertion had anything to do with Maan running away to NY? Or whatever it is that happened with Sameera?

I am on the fence regarding both their ways about dealing with conflict- they are both very big on physical and mental space in their relationship- while I can see the benefits of having that kind of space- I also feel that so much space sometimes allows people/world/circumstances to come in between two lovers knowingly and unknowingly-how much is too much and how much is too little- do not ask me for I do not know! It's a fine line that is to be tread- too much either way and your relationship always ends up suffering...

I hope these two kiss and make up in the next part....I shall be waiting to see if Geet pays heed to my advice (I have no hopes from AYM, Maan)

I know I owe you a comment for part 69 and for Chandni's Rooftop as well..I am working on those....hopefully by tomorrow..you shall have all 3 😉'my smallish brain can only process LIFO!

Pixie,

I was almost beginning to think that you were miffed. You had disappeared from this side of the earth. All izz well when I saw your comment and relieved too. <Breathes deeply...>

Misery just loves company I guess...especially when it does ring with so many who visit this thread (You are an exception and that I'm sure of).

I promise to try...(the keyword is try) to write an out an out comedy. I want Technoratti to be that way, but then its an experiment again.

Geet's himmat was all on display in Part 69 itself...I hope you had read that too.

Yes Maan is a loner and in his sister's case he blames himself which will come out in the coming parts.

The space that NY times Maneet seek now is a key to the climax..I chose to keep it that way for sometime.

The next part...Geet has already decided that there is no pointing grumbling at her dear husband, but she does want him to share more...

If you remember they failed miserably at their wedding games too...They will come to realize that they had hurried into their marriage.

Per your request, I shall try and think of lighter updates.

Take your time to comment no issues, but the lady doth crave more and so do post when you can.

Thanks a tonne for sharing your thoughts and for the feedback. I appreciate it.

@Hasini: Actually I would flip that statement on its head(misery loves company)...maybe life is in anycase so stressful..that when you look for escape- in fiction, in movies, in TV- why not look for bliss instead of more misery? So I am not looking for comedy...but I am looking for a little less morose...a little more sunshine rather than the clouds of despair (next you are going to have me write poetry on this thread, from 2 words- I have come so far!)

Life aint a bed of roses for anyone...to all of us our lot in life does seem unsurmountable at one point or the other...but that doesn't mean that one should give up on happy endings?

I have a firm belief in- this too shall pass! Whatever you are going through I sincerely hope it gets over soon...and your life turns all sunny and cheerful!😊

Sure. Point duly noted....

Wow...but where did the last two lines come from? I'm as chirpy as a jay-bird if you didn't know...atleast 90% of the time. Its just that my genre is drama...unfortunately I dont have one funny bone in my shack...and thats exactly why I have been crying experiment out loud as far as the comedy track goes.

Lighter updates for sure...but it does get heavy before the end...

^^ Then I shall be waiting....with my tissue box in tow😆

Waise I have read all the updates...I am just a little behind on the commenting....you know I am always amazed by the creative process (maybe because I do not have a creative bone in my body)....What makes creative folks tick- why some choose to represent events the way they do? So just trying to understand why these two are the way they are- or maybe its the way I have interpreted them in my head....

Both your characters in NYT are about the details and the specifics, the what did not happen and uncertainties more than the what could be's and what is....<I know I am generalizing much- but when I think of Maan and Geet- I do feel like telling them- life is short, my sweets...take a chill pill and live and love a little>

I am happy to know that you are not miserable (I must have misread the comment, my apologies)....I shall hope you continue to be happy and cheerful 😊

That's some reading between the lines...you really did get the subtext. Very openly said that is all what this is about. The whole story was originally written when I came upon a sentence somewhere...that most people in their later years only crib about the things that they could have done/lived/experienced..and forget more on what they did and got. Acceptance is what journey is about, but they need a past with themselves before they could turn back and see how they had treated the time and life they got with each other and hence all the build up...

If I may say so...this is a second chance for both Maan and Geet...And trust me the epilogue will speak it all.

As I have always said, consider this your lounge...spam away
