Anu,
What do I say now? Can I just come and HUG you?🤗
You know sometimes in our lives we meet people who make us want to be a better person or a good human. Similar to that there are some stories that just touch our hearts and stir myriad of emotions within us and make us want be good with words and drive us to write the best comment. And it happened to me with this story and when I think about it, more than the story it's your writing that evokes the emotions.
Your writing is so expressive and deep that in just few words you wrap the emotions, characters and story. I am amazed that in just four chapters you recited love story of Arnav and Khushi, story of a brother and sister, journey of a boy who is lost, goes through the tremors of life, struggles to fight his way back to normalcy and finds an anchor in midnight black eyes. The life story of Lt. Col. Raizada in the past 9 years and present and a heart touching relationship of a father and daughter. The best thing about all this was, it didn't feel rushed and you did total justice to each and every character and nuances of the story.
Indeed, beginning it is.
9 years back Khushi saved Arnav and today she saved his daughter. 9 years back Arnav pushed Khushi away from him to protect her and today he pulled her into his life to protect her for rest of his life.
I like the way you concluded this story. Just like how the first part left me with a ray of hope that they will meet again, this chapter again made me hopeful and happy that they met, words, questions, explanations nothing is required as they will together write their own story.
This is the kind of story and writing that brings a calm, content and positivity when read.
