Just got back...so will un res soon...

Afya,

I will start with a heartfelt apology for my tardiness in commenting'.

Khushi, keeps thinking about her Arnav, surprised that he was not in the room where he is, does he know the puja is over, should she inform him'.and then just not wanting to care so much, just goes to change, but leaving the door latch open in case he come in while she is in the bathroom! I loved how her he is slowly always on her mind'

Khushi still affected by Arnavs gesture of putting her payals and that action giving birth to her questions and her current state of mind where she is trying to figure out what it meant, where he found it? She has been looking out for it herself and then realized that she maybe unnecessarily reading too much in to nothing thinks it must be just carelessness on her part and lets it rest!

I loved how she notices his sleeping form in the morning, oblivious to when he joins her in bed, I love her noticing his hands and how they looked like they were holding on to something for dear life and loved her feeling the warmth and gentleness of his touch and the smile that settles on her face'her longing and desire to reach out and touch him ..her realization that there was something about this man and the pull she felt towards him and then suddenly she reminds herself to get a grip on her emotions and runs to the bathroom in fear of doing something silly that would completely give her away'.beautiful and so natural!

I Love nani's perceptiveness and astuteness on why the Kapoor's had called them over a rishta for Akaash..'her experience in such matters and how she wanted Khushi to join them, as Khushi being the daughter in law should be included in family decisions, but Khushi's knowing the truth of her marriage does not want to get more and more involved so excuses herself on the pretext of pending work'.

And loved how once again she starts thinking about him, he seems to have consumed her totally'..loved how she has to repeated remind herself to stop'.

And then her surprise at his early arrival almost thinking she is day dreaming about him again..and thinks that maybe there is something wrong with her as she has now even started seeing him and not just thinking about him'.and with that thought voices her thoughts without realizing that he is indeed there and runs off nervously, confused, like it was way too dangerous for her to be near him without doing or saying anything silly, but there was something about him that left her heart racing and her feelings out of control'. And here is left trying to tell her that he was not feeling well, perplexed by her action, thinking maybe she was busy he goes to their room has a medicine and falls asleep'

It was only when the women returned that she finds out the reason behind his sudden and early arrival of course feeling guilty having avoided him the entire afternoon, in case he needed something!

I can totally visualize her talking to herself about her feelings, not knowing what is happening, why this man is affecting her like he is, why her heart reacts to him like it does, and her staring at him and what he must be thinking of her '.

I liked the video, the do seem custom made for your story, adding a brilliant touch'loved that scene where she goes to aplogise, blaming her dhak dhak and acidity so innocently and honestly and her besan hands that soon become her besanafied face which in turn causes him to laugh'openly and with full abandonment!

So now Mami is interested in Payal for her Akaash, interesting, but that leaves him with another problem, he needs to find someone else to manage the Bombay office as now with talks of his brothers wedding he was no longer an option to send him for a month.

I liked Anjali and her bonding, Anjali trusting her and taking her to the doctor with her, her happiness at the prospect of being pregnant confirming Anjali' suspicions, they had been waiting for so long for this moment, she had been trying for so long, she had already started selecting names but the happiness was not to stay and it was so sad when she was told that she had miscarried, I empathized with Anjali about the loss of her child and the anguish and turmoil she faces'.Khushi acting as her strength at his crucial time, feeling her loss as much as Anjali, shedding tears while trying to stay brave and calm, it was so emotional and well described! Trying to explain how the birth of this child would have resulted in an abnormal child and it was God's wish'Khushi unsure of whether she should inform Arnav but feeling it might not help under the circumstances just deals with it the best she can..

Back home, after scheduling the operation for the next day, the time for the family to informed had come and so she calls everyone she tells the anxious and worried family what had happened, with full details, answering all their questions and concerns about the ultrasound, the surgery, here I felt Afya that maybe you gave us too many details'it was well written but here I would have liked more Arhi interaction'him thanking her for taking care of his di.

The next day at the hospital, everyone worried, Shyam's absence, his work taking precedence over his wife did not go down well with mami, I liked her speaking up! It also gave us an insight to her thoughts and a bit more to Shyam.

I love Nani for acknowledging Khushi's strength and kindness and wisdom, crediting Varsha for her choice' (and her matching making'..) Arnav noticing it too, I hope he can soon express it to her in words or actions!

I loved her taking care of Anjali post the surgery and Anjali putting on a brave face, Khushi for one identified with pain and could see Anjali hiding hers, like she hiding her own and knew time would heal Anjali and her'eventually.

I look forward to the story moving ahead with more Arhi interactions'.for them to see more of each other, I liked that in this update he sees her strength and dedication to his sister'.her selflessness and love and support for his sister, her calmness , wisdom and maturity in such trying circumstance'..all making her beautiful from inside and outside'.

Beautifully written . looking forward to your descriptions when arnav falls in love with khushi - hopefully soon.

sorry i have been missing, but i am back now and catching up slowly. Really enjoyed reading your work today. khushi is such a pillar of support for the Raizadas. She took Anjali to hospital and handled her problem so well and consoled her too. feel sad for anjali's loss. loved Khushi here.

Had not realized that I had not reserved earlier😲

Was searching for my spot and thats when it hit me...

Will update in a few hours, Afya

EDITED

Few hours turned into an entire day!!!😳

Sorry Afya for the really late update---it's been a very busy week and this entire term seems headed that way. Sigh!!😔

So without further ado...

I loved the continuity from the previous payal scene ... finally when a weary Khushi walks up to her room, thoughts of what had happened earlier do not seem to leave her at all. Even sub-consciously, she is thinking about Arnav...one of the first things she looks for, is him-whether she knows it or not. His earlier interaction with her-- the tenderness he is showing, everything is binding them together- slowly- an invisible connection is built and being strengthened. Questions about her payal - all left unanswered- such is her confusion, that she would never attribute it to anything else but a very commonplace happening- he found it, so picked it up! Wonder who is more deluded here - Arnav or Khushi? 😕

She wakes up and looks for him - smiles at his sleeping face, notices little things about how he sleeps...nice. 👍🏼

Loved the domestic Khushi too- her forays into the kitchen inspite of all the help she has now, shows how down to earth she is - she refuses to go alongwith the others to see the Kapoors- preferring to putter around at home. Does she realize that the women want to include her to make her feel part of the family, and that's why she deliberately stays away, not wanting to get too attached-given the temporary nature of their marriage? 😔

And being alone is the perfect time for memories- memories from the previous night...his touch, his concern, and everything about him- flustering her totally- it's a miracle she did not burn the food! 😊And then almost as if her thoughts have conjured him up- he comes home early -Khushi not believing her eyes, thinking she is seeing things instead-haha-😆 "You can't be home so early. Surely this is not true..." -seriously? She said it aloud????

She is too flustered - understandably-so much so, that she runs off back to the kitchen instead of hearing him out---lost in her own thoughts of how he made her feel...😕

(for a moment, I was scared there-thought you might have that nasty Shyam turn up instead).😲

I felt sorry for Arnav here -- he wants to tell her he is sick, but then attributes her running off to being busy-so takes care of himself -- as he usually does - this was a short para -but it brought out what a loner he is.😭

And the silly girl goes to such lengths to avoid him that she did not realize he was sick - until the family is back home 😆- then I loved how you used the next scene here- seemed so apt! 👏Her concern for him, also a bit of guilt - the besan on her face, and she then smears it more, makes it worse - thus causing him to laugh- ☺️wasn't this the first time Khushi made Arnav laugh on the show? Anjali seeing this-feeling so happy...😊

Loved the next part when Anjali wants to take Khushi with her to see the doctor...

Liked the scene switching to Arnav- his plans for expansion-moving to Mumbai - a new office, plans for Akash and finally memories of his conversation with Mami who wants Akash to marry Khushi's sister, Payal...what will be in store for Arnav and Khushi- if their siblings do get married- how will so many relations get affected, once the true nature of their marriage is revealed? So many questions, Afya...

"He has met Payal, Mami. He will at least tell you if you should or shouldn't go ahead. Payal is a nice girl, Mami, but they both should agree to the idea" loved the practicality with which he stated this ----however he is really not thinking about other consequences...hmmm, Arnav...😊

I must tell you- to me, Anjali's miscarriage scene on IPK was not done well - it could have been so much more sensitive and compassionate - I was truly horrified by the needless ...shall I say...brutality...the pain...of the mother in particular.😭

So I was curious how you would show this - what I really liked is how you managed to show true life reasons (that do happen in reality) to be the cause- I hate sadness Afya...even in stories..😭.but I understand this might have been a necessary part for your story to move ahead.

Loved how you showed Khushi being sensible and efficiently managing the family- informing them, keeping them together in such terrible sorrow. 👍🏼

Especially since Anjali didn't even know for sure that she was pregnant- the blow would have been even worse.

Loved clever Mamiji👏 how she immediately thought about informing Shyam- loved how the entire family rallied around Anjali during the operation, each one offering comfort and support in whichever way they could. Loved Mamiji for voicing out how Shyam should have been there for his wife- and her thoughts the he was inconsiderate...will she finally be the one to discover and reveal his true colors?⭐️ I hope so...

Loved how Naniji reaffirms her daughter's choice- Khushi for Arnav -- in the coming stormy days, I suspect, these two are going to need every positive support they can, for their relationship to survive...And flourish hopefully!😃

That last paragraph where Khushi understands without words what Anjali must be going through - yes wounds heal...all one needs is time, Afya.

Very intense update...and I do not know if I have done justice to it😳...wanted to post my comment before your next update, which I look forward to...👏
