The chapter was beautifully written...
You started with his apprehension, and him not being in denial of his feelings and his decision to give 'them' a chance..his hesitation in asking for a date with him..and from no where cam the bomb..the twist...it literally twisted my gut quite forcefully..i felt his pain and heartbreak..you portrayed his emotions so well..
I think the way you surprised us with Kushi's engagement without giving any clue earlier did the trick..the impact was double...
Devi Maiyya's monologue made me see sense..nothing is over till it is really over...
