dear this story was the first one that i started reading from your index...i fell in love with your writing ...instead of writing a proper comment i was greedy to finish the rest from your index and the latest that i finished was INTOXICATION...and now you have mentioned that u are leaving IF...while i was reading your note i realised that i have not sent a proper comment for 'A LATE SPRING' which made me read your other stories...

dear i dont know from where to start...awesome is not the word...its much more than that...what all to appreciate in that!!!!!!
the sense of humour and teasing nature of arnav for one thing and comparing the characters of little red riding hood with arshi the second...

i loved the tease, "THIS WILL DO" from arnav when khushi was apprehensive about her C-section scar in her tummy...beautifulll...

great work...and ALL THE VERY BEST...

A Late Spring...

It's wonderful journey that we loved going through it and living their experiences.

Thank you so much, Jenny for this awesome story. We'd love to read the story you're going to start after your comeback.

Fairy tale...these words popped into my mind when I began reading this story. And as I proceeded with the story, I realized that it was indeed a modern day representation of a classic fairy tale; one that we all have come to like and love while growing up.


The prologue itself had a magical element to it; on which couldn't help but make the reader in me get sucked into the world of Arnav and Khushi, in a far away and more importantly, lesser known place like Landour.


The flashback showcasing the teenage years of the protagonists wherein falling in love was so easy and so surreal that it made me forget, if only temporarily; the sorrow that was a vital part of their lives. For a while, the fact that the two had themselves for each other was enough.


The tale did not have a villainous character; it was just the circumstances as also the intermix of the individual characters riding the decisions mad and the subsequent actions taken that was a cause for the painful separation. It made the tale all the more realistic, bringing to the fore a very well founded aspect that you do not need an external element which would act as a hurdle, sometimes it is all within us and that one has to overcome it all, give oneself a second chance in life.


There was love in this one, a generous sprinkling of pathos, underlying currents of melancholy. But more importantly, there was splendid story which wove each and every of the aforementioned elements and rooted the reader till the end.


It was easy to fall in love with Arnav Foster, a natural to feel the pain of rejection and betrayal that Khushi underwent as also the burden she had to shoulder for a long time. Branny felt such a vital part of the story that I smiled when he was delighted on seeing Arnav, gulped back a sob when he hesitantly called Arnav Daddy' and had a difficult time placating my harried heart when his condition turned for the worse.


From the two of them being more or less alone to having a full house, the journey that A late spring' unveiled was nothing short of fantastic. Add to it the presence of small trivia, may it be the one on the spring bulb, the changing seasons, love as also the songs which were perfect for the respective occasion, we have a sure shot winner.


My only regret...this story was delayed in getting read by me.😊

Jenny,
I completed reading the epilogues just this morning. I had thought of writing so many things after I finished this story, but honest to god - words fail me.
I feel speechless and overwhelmed at the same time and frankly, I don't know where to start or how my words can ever do justice to this beautiful, beautiful experience I had while reading this story.

I don't know if it were your characters, the smoothly flowing storyline or the warmth that permeated through me every time I read a chapter of ALS - the journey was wonderful.
Right from the time Arnav and Khushi first met, when her silver bike crashed against him to when they found each other after years of separation and then finally got married - I felt myself falling deeply in love with everything about this FF.

There were events which made me giggle and laugh out loud like a teenager - all those times Arnav teased Khushi during their school life in Landour; events which made me cry like a baby - Arnav's broken childhood, or the time they had to separate when Khushi got married, or when the past of her failed marriage was revealed; events that made me fold my hands and pray for Branny's speedy recovery; events which made me marvel at the perfection that was Arnav Foster; events which made me wonder whether a love as pure as the one Arnav and Khushi shared, indeed existed - how despite everything...the fact that Khushi had left him once, that she was a widow... Arnav never stopped loving Khushi and wholeheartedly accepted Branny; events that made my heart sore as I saw Arnav becoming the perfect husband, dad and grandson.

The chapters showing their marriage and a happy reunion, were beautiful, for lack of a better word. Beautiful, and filled me with a hope that sometimes, happy endings do exist. 😊

A fellow reader above called this story a 'fairytale' - I think no word can be more apt than this. A Late Spring, is undoubtedly one of the best ones I have read here. 👏

Thank you for writing this story. I want to say so much more...but Asli Duniya is being too demanding right now. As soon as I get some respite, my next stop is going to be your index.

About your note on the main forum the other day, of that being your last post - I won't force you, but I do hope you peek in here sometime and give us an OS or two? Because after completing ALS, I am so glad IPK was inspiring enough for people like you to come out and write - otherwise we would have missed out on so many masterpieces.
Take care. 🤗
