Sorry for taking so long to Unres.

Hmmm about the update, it was amazing. You so beautifully describe the nervousness and the enxiety a bride feels, all the emotion of leaving a known life and entering the new one with new companion. Here Anjali went through all the fears of her past with her mother as an example and a victim, her Nani a strong woman who hold them together to her present and future with Shyam and his love for her. It was just beautiful. And the part where you mentioned that once at mundap she saw love and admiration in his eyes which made all the fears flew away from her being of entering in this new chapter if life.

About Anya, she has proved to be the support Anjali needed to come out of her doubts about the wedding decision at a crucial time. Loved the negotiation between Aman and Anya. Anya almost got caught by Anjali and Khushi.

Felt proud how your Payal stood against the tide which he'll bent on destroying her belief that she can get happiness in her life. Loved the way she made Manorama quiet but felt sorry for her too.

In the very first chapter of DND you mentioned the lady leaving a girl behind in the chapter but their is no date as is it past, present or future or mere a point to start. If it's related than is that orphan Payal?

Hmmm about Khushi and Arnav, well they are so much in love that I can't have words to say anything. But yeah shadow steal the show...

Now who would want arrange marriage 😉

All in all awesome update...specially wedding jitters experienced by Anjali.

P.S. If possible please answer my question regarding Payal. Very curios.

Loved the update as always.
I was reading with trepidation as everyone's emotions were being dealt with and I thought that I'd have for the next update for A &K but the extra long update was a pleasant surprise.
Thank you.
Anjali's anxieties were beautifully brought out...Payal was so dignified in the face of Mammiji's tirade. As you said 'in the house of God' where all are equal...
A & K's interaction was just too sweet.

Such a beautiful chapter - marriages are meant to be such joyous occassions and you portrayef that so well. Be it Anjali and her jitters, Payal and her realism, Anya with her need for privacy, Khushi and her bubble of happiness, totally loved it. your last sentence leaves me a bit apprehensive - I really really hope that we will not see anything bad coming the way of these lovely people but it will be nice to see how theygo about finding their own happiness

A wedding is an event where almost every emotion is heightened, every nuance exaggerated. Amidst beauty and promises of love and forever, there is grief, nervousness, anxiety, despair, anger, jealousy, lust, longing, yearning, promises and heartaches

And to me, that is what Chapter 28 was about.

Whether is was Anjali's jitters, Anya's beautiful calming of her sister, Khushi's happy glee and quiet support to Anjali, Anjali's own teasing yet understanding play on Khushi and Arnav, her thoughs about Shyam and how much he was for, Arnav's lover's anger with his lady even as she remains the center of his universe, lovers everywhere in different stages of companionship, Akash and Payal's little moment of angst, Manorama's terrible words and Payal's whip-lash of a reply yet laced with so much pain

This was a chapter of roller coaster emotions and I felt each and every one of them

And all of this when I didn't fail to notice the gold leaf mirror, the flowers, the Amaranth pink tie, the Swavroski crystal on an orange sari, the Jodha like bride, the black Prada bag...

Only you can do both with such ease, Sandhya. Hats off for a beautiful chapter. One of your best so far.

PS: I had tears for Payal. And whether Akash is great or not, Manorama Raizada's words shouldn't have been for anyone to hear. Empathy is highly undervalued. Wonder if Manohar Raizada the man who was so thrilled about his sister's wish being fulfilled, understands this shade to his wife's personality.

Firstly ...i am happy for anjali at last she is taking this huge step inspite of being aware what its failure can cause her she believes in her love...
And her small gesture towards khushi is praiseworthy,she is such sensible sister,,,n khushi's all in one scared,embaressed,happy,hopeful,ecstatic reveals her expectant heart...but i am dreadful my premonition prepares me for a heartache.
And you brought shadow back..with johnson baby shampoo *lol*.
nani's insight was emotional. After anjali its payal's turn i suppose, i hate manorama but i love this defiant payal standing for her love yet nor backing away from morals...anya n aman are cute together.
Now my favourite...arshi, really sandy there u are increasing the intensity of their gazes and here i am feeling heated up by the sparks...such is their chemistry. LOVED THE UPDATE

Writing C'est dur mais c'est la vie in the end, you have left me wondering what you have in store for us!
Are you planning to separate any one of the couples or all????
You have made Anjali overcome her insecurities, Khushi accept that she too can reach out to Arnav, Payal not to aspire for things without family consent, Anya to take things slowly and now the bombshell!

C'est dur mais c'est la vie! 🤢

What do we do?

What do we do??

What do we make out of it!???

That last line changed all my thoughts 😡 and I don't want to speculate!🤢

Lovely update. Thanks for taking time to write a marathon one.
