Arhi: Desert Rose #3 Chapter 23 updated page 120 - Page 31

K where should I begin today. Ok I will start with saying I absolutely liked Jenny. Her openness, her enthusiasm to meet a friends wife not only put khushi at ease but me too. She behaved perfectly like a fond friend who dropped in to meet a Arnav and was pleased /curious to see signficant changes in his life. Nonetheless she made an effort to get to know Khushi.

U guys always pull my leg na as to y I love this Arnav but today he himself showed y i liked him. His friend's coming did not make him forget his wife. Yes may be he did ask her to join them as he hates shopping (though I dont feel that is the only reason) but the possessiveness he showed in a dignified manner towards his wife in front of an outsider makes me love him. Also I love him more for the way he chose to give money to khushi. He realized she does not have money to spend for herself but instead of giving it to her he chose to keep it in her bangle box knowing an independent woman like her may feel awkward if he handed it to her. The location he chose vouches for that. Her personal bangle box so that it is conveyed clearly it is for her use only for everything else he always signed cheques like during Payash wedding preps. Today he showed he cares for her feelings.

K should I even say anything for the wonderful description of the fort and temple. U have proved time and again ur skill describing things so that one can almost build the place in mind. Applause as always dear.

The shyam Khushi scene today left me feeling eerie. I hope khushi takes Manav's advice to heart and confides in Arnav about it. It will help clear his MU to hopefully.

Arnav and Jenny conversation was so insightful. I think Khushi bcos she does not know Arnav well she took his words at face value. I feel when he said he had no choice it ws not about him marrying Khushi the person but him marrying. He has his own reasons for not believing in marriage and I think for someone like him who likes to be in control a situation forcing him to take a decision gives a feeling of being forced. The idea frustrates him as once before his parents death also forced him to leave his dreams aside. Poor khushi can't blame her feels inadequate as things started between them on a wrong footing. Wish she realizes that if they had met in normal circumstances Arnav wud still like her but even then marriage wud be a tuff decision for him.

Now coming to my most fav part. Manav -Arnav confrontation. It was much needed. Heheh yes I am happy cos this is how I imagined Manav a man who can stand up against ASR for what he believes in. Manav hit the nail partially this time. Yes Arnav is upset cos Manav went behind his back as he always held Manav is high esteem someone he wud turn to but Manav going behind his back has more than anything else hurt him. The other half is ofcourse his jealousy over the easy relationship Khushi has with Manav, the way she is comfortable with Manav. He would trust Manav and Khushi but nonetheless the confused husband in denial about his love for his wife does get jealous of it.

👏 for u dear

Wonderful and detailed update!

Edit

Jenny seems pretty much okay for the moment.

Arnav's response was kind of rough on Khushi and she should have heard the rest but her emotions took over her and she ran away from there.

Oh god Shyam. Seriously he makes me sick, I know for sure no one will believe her but if she has Manav on her side she will get somewhere and now knowing that Arnav gets jealous of Manav who is always by Khushi's side is fun to watch

Do update soon
