WOW Z!! This is so amazing..until now as I've said before also. I couldn't understand exactly what Khushi was feeling...she just seemed numb...you've given that numbness shape in this chapter so beautifully. She has reached a place where everything is a mere symbol a representation of her despair. She's become detached from the light and attached to the dark.
As for your last line, they always have a powerful effect. Redemption or healing won't come easy for Arnav. It will be hundred times more difficult for Arnav to bring her back than it took for him to turn her into this zombie. 👏
as for the Romantic in you and me, 😳 He is the one who turned out the lights in her world but it is from him that she now derives comfort.
Please don't make us so long next time Z! Honestly, it kills...
