That poem was so good Jazzy...So, Maan's stalking helped him realize the passion she has for writing and now he will swoop in and rescue the fair maiden 😳 I liked how u addressed the distinction b/w girl and boy with regards to the expectations

Nice update

Haw!! Why all 🤢🤢🤢 at cathartic?? while i think we are all fortunate at not having been suppressed either in terms of education or opportunities.. there is definitely a grain of truth in Geet's predicament in terms of the over-arching societal pressure of conforming to the larger 'code' or 'prototype' of the Bhartiya Nari...

Which is to say the 'randoms' (= everyone else who is NOT a part of your family, yet amazingly have more power over them than they do over their OWN family😆😆) can hold you to ransom at a smile withheld, at a conversation louder or more sarcastic than deemed neccessary, at a spontaneous or 'irresponsible' moment enjoyed, at an 'answering back' at the menfolk, at a questioning of rituals deemed sacred, at a thought or moment stolen for yourself before the 'man in your life' or your 'child', at a house less than perfect, at a sacrifice eschewed... AND you will find the family making excuses and apologies on your behalf... 😕😕😕

And yup to the other second point...

The third point...? Coleridge wrote Kubla Khan when he was stoned... which is to say he was in a state of delirium... the best stuff comes out then, coz the conscious mind is not strong enough to rein you in... so yup... it was awesome stuff!! 👏👏

Uff! Long post as usual... i really need to stop 'vomiting' out every single thought that comes to mind!! 😆😆😆

Maan got to know her dream so as we finally.. The poem..u need not be apprehensive cuz it's more than perfect. I've no words more than that 2explain the poem..may be i'll send u a PM ;). The tenderness n care of Maan makes me respect him so very much. And 4 a gal like Geet who wishes 4 li'l support,who stood alone all along..wat else she wud wish 4more than Maan who'd already become her support system without her knowledge! Every word of Geet..i wud say well chosen words 1depict the exact emotion. Its funny how the love 4daughters will always be under an apprehension..under some rules u wud impose due 2 love care r overprotectiveness but we often forget that only love n trust can strengthen a relation. Anything other than love will only weaken da bond. I kind of pity Geet's parents here as they chose da wrong way. May be if they wud've trusted their daughter a bit more she wud've been a bit happy,a bit certain a bit confident n she might not've been aching 4 love. But then again as they say its a cycle..she had difficulties n hence she'll n have 2 face happiness in future.thats da law of nature. Isnt it? N i can c her happiness is somehow bought by Maan. N then i've 2talk abt pinky. Did i tell u i love her? She's one of da best characters in this ss. Ofcourse all characters r awesome..dadi n pinky r however my favorites. Especially pinky..she's da one who can blabber non stop,tease her frnd yet will be da one 2understand Geet inside out. Ppl will be real blessed 2have such frnds in their life..what else one wud need more than such loving ones especially for Geet who are craving for love n support? I luv luv loved it. Continue super soon. Ps: the photoshop thing was awesome. Came out so naturally :D

allow me to add_ at an innocent conversation with a male friend, at a simple laugh that escaped unconsciously from the mouth, at a dance one danced wholeheartedly, at a confident style of walking, at stating their own individual opinion instead of conforming to that of elders. It goes against the grain to recognize the fact that women too have freedom - to choose a lifestyle or career or independence!

Ok, I dunno what the inside joke is - but Cathartic it is and I think it was damned necessary - it is in fact for everyone right?

But no - that too is considered a taboo if done by the girls.

And yup to the other second point...
