RES again for an actual comment . Because:
I love taking more thread space so eventually we will have 1 chapter per thread?
I love this story way too much, and it occupies my mind more than is advisory for a normal person. So tit for tat, bas.
ps. cha kar bhi main tumse duur kyu nahi reh paati, dammit!
UNRES
Sorry J. I dont know what came over me..I think sometimes I forget as much as I want to understand all the hidden meaningz and do justice to your writing by dwelling deeply into it..I also need to have fun and just appreciate whatever I do get out of it and be content with that. I don't know if it makes sense..which brings me to, I wish you could read my thoughts telepathically, because with time I find it super hard to articulate my thoughts on each chapter. There is way too many PHEELZ and my heads need to chill the freak out sometimes. Sorry to dump it all on you yesterday!
"Its not you, its me" 5real LOL
Anyhow to the UnRes I promised.
So heer you have it again Luna(tics) list of why she loved chapter 3, even more:
1. The title for this one again, and it was so appropriate for the next "phase" of their relationship. Its stupid of me to even be surprised anymore at your perceptiveness. The poetry attached to both, perfect balance between SKD and AD!:
He had entered this place like the rays of sunshine behind him, dispelling the gloom of neglect and apathy that she had been trying to fight for years...
A pale crescent moon had risen in the sky behind her, and he thought about how similar they were.
She was cool, calm and collected, and always brought a serenity with her.
2. Your stressing on Arnav's nightmare, which probably means the past is no piece of cake either. It makes me not want to jump at his throat when he is being unnecessarily mean. I also get the feeling that she doesn't feature in this nightmare, she is an indirect cause of his past..because if she did, it would be hard for him to forget the "hatred".
3. That this ASR smiles. I don't know why thats important, but it just shows your characters are never one dimensional..yes there is the past, but he doesn't stop him from "living". J I think you have come a Long Way (please no gutterz yaara).
4. The intelligent bickering, is a nice twist on their so called baseless verbal lashings. I can understand how the intelligence both have can lead to mutual (secretive) admiration and even attraction..AND finally hatred forgetation! The non-rabba vey route you have taken here and yet made me pheel the pheelz, you do have magic J.
5. Him being the man of her dreamz 5real! Oh who can't relate to Khushi's dilemma "system ko badal ne jao..khud system tumhe badal deta hai" (yes i quote rang de basanti..not the most politically sound movie but still) And so when the chance doth come, as a man with a fresh perspective on politics, influenced by his penchant for business..and surprisingly uninfluenced by his family who would no doubt have some kind of rigid political ideologies..who wouldn't be swept away?!
6. For now, her reason to caution her heart is only because HE hates her and not because she feels responsible/guilty enough for it all
7. For a Fishy Shyam. And hey if KKG says he is fishy, he must be FISHY, no arguments there!
8. Mercurial Mood Swings (MMS). I love the fact that you have justified them heer so well though. I can understand his dilemma, even when I dont know the past.
9. The PHYSICAL ATTRACTION. Thank you. I expected this would happen..but the way it seems to flow from one phase to another..makes complete sense. Juhi this is the most subtle way in which you have reached this stage so far and I am so proud. Although at the same time I also love standing under waterfalls while reading with a tale of dancing on the edge, scandalous..but I like that yet again you are exploring a new way of doing things. Oh also it surprises me that they haven't shared any of these pheelings in the past, which makes me think their relationship (if any) must be limited to friendship..or even khushi somehow being subordinate to Arnav/his family..two reasons for the Sir Jibe?
10. The politics, the medical jargon..J you know your stuff, bas. It makes sense to a lay-woman like me..cause even if you are talking about these revolutionary ideas, you always keep it simple.
11. It never surprises me when KKG fights back in your stories, and the way she lives up to each and every challenge/curveball that ASR throws at her. However it is hard to make her fight back and at the same time make her sound relatable and not superwoman/wonderwoman prototype. You can strangely maintain that balance really well, J.
12. The rain scene was my favourite it reminded me of the the one in the banner..and promo. You managed to show both sides of the story of a man with a past, SO PERFECT & BEATUTIFUL J. FARAQ. I dont know how you do it..but @LetMeLoveYou
Appalled to realize that he was lusting after a woman who was responsible for destroying his past, and tainting his present.
13. An ungreedy ASR.
14. I love the last argument, such a J logical way to put it all.
I CANNOT FARAQING WAIT FOR MORE.
CAN YOU POST IT ALREADY?
TFS.
