The Photographer # 2: New thread Link Pg 142 - Page 26

Just read the whole story in a go...now cant wait to find out wat will happen to Khushi & Arnav...& wat impact wud Khushiz past have on her future with Arnav...!!

honestly, i found the arnav khushi interaction on the stairs somewhat unsatisfying. for one, it was kind of difficult to keep track of who was saying what. had to read it again to figure out. and on some level, here is what i feel. yes he initiated the kiss but she did respond and based on that she is looking for commitment etc etc and a forever? well if she didn't like it, why approach him on the stairs? and if she did, then surely she is jumping the gun by a mile in terms of talking commitment issues.

Hi Shiza,

I am out of words about the dedication. That was such a pleasant surprise and cheered me up as I was having a bad day👍🏼. I am truly humbled and honored, thank you so much dear🤗.

I love your stories no doubt about it and I am glad that I came to know the person behind these stories and the best thing is how well I can connect with you, your likes, your taste, opinions etc. With exchange of few scraps I already feel like I know so much about you. It's a pleasure dear. You are an abundance of talent.

About the chapter –

I loved it so much and I read it 3 times in a row. You excelled in writing this👏; I think you should always write with hustle bustle around you.😆

Khushi is struggling to balance her emotions, she is struggling to balance her past and present. Hence she is having difficulty accept what she feels for Arnav and accept what he feels for her. Khushi is dealing with abandonment issues, despite having a loving family that loves her unconditionally somewhere deep rooted is the feeling that she is "unwanted" and the reason why she cannot depend emotionally on others or take it when people give importance to her; she fears rejection and abandonment.

This is the reason why she is pushing Arnav away and is not letting him in her personal space.

The following lines from Khushi summarizes what I said above –

"I need guarantees. I need promises. I am not going to wear my heart on my sleeve because I know I am the only one who is going to end up hurt.''

So you give us glimpse into how their past is connected, I am guessing Khushi is that little girl with chubby cheeks. Subconsciously I think Arnav sees that little girl in Khushi and the reason why he worries about her and wants to protect her.

It's interesting that Arnav and Khushi have a past that's troubling them but they both are dealing with it different ways. Anjali is the anchor in Arnav's life, I am sure she is the reason that helps him keep things in perspective and move forward in life.

The staircase conversation was excellent. It was highlight of the chapter.

Arnav is making no bones about what he feels for Khushi. I really like this Arnav; though he is man of few words he is open and honest about his emotions and he is very quick in articulating and naming his emotions – understanding that Khushi's presence gives him solace. He doesn't need external push, his actions are driven by his emotions/instincts. This characteristic of Arnav will be key to take things forward between them.

Khushi on the other hand will always need external influence and push to accept her feelings and channelize them properly, she will be in denial and control them. I look forward to see how Khushi handles the green-eyed-monster and if Arnav will fuel Khushi's jealousy using Sania.

Now please don't make me wait any longer…. You know this is my favorite story. 😳
