Hey Anu,
I am sure by now you must have habituated of my sorries as I am truly sorry for being late this last time on this thread. Actually I was taking time to recover from shock that I won't see your story anymore. Actually it had become a habit that almost every night when I login into India-Forums I got a PM from you regarding update of Meant to be... but it wont happen any longer. Yaa I know everything means to leave the place and story is always meant to be ended but what to do when story is as nice as Meant to be then to accept the ending is li'l difficult. Plus you were kind of my first friend on the forum, who I have acquainted with.
About update, it was as marvellous as the whole story... So Randhir have never reconciled with his mother.. I think something are never meant to be just like something are always meant to be. I liked how Sanyukta gave a piece of her mind to Karan. I think I was getting a glimpse of Sanyukta of Friday's episode when she was prohibiting Sahil to do suicide.. I don't know whether you wrote the update earlier the telecast of the episode or you got inspired from the scene but whatever it was, the scene was turned out really beautiful. And I really appreciate when she decided not to tell Randhir about Karan's cheat. Again I feel something are better if they are hidden esp if they may hurt your loved ones. Epilogue was damn cute.. Sara their daughter was true copy of her father, even put her father in fit few times.
None of the chapter of your story was a filler. Every chapter said its own story... You managed to create the suspense for your readers. Though you said once that I cracked your suspense and I told you that despite me guessing I still have the feeling of "what next.." whenever I open the thread... I always had that inkling in my mind that whether I guessed right or not. And with your last few chapters your really dropped a bomb on your readers. I am sure like me almost every reader was in view of the opinion that Riddhima is Randhir's past.. that bhaiyaa" was a big shocker for everyone but I am glad that I could manage to guess Riddhima will be his half sister from his father's side hehe. Okay Anu I am getting speechless, words are getting short to say anything more. But one last advice pls think about to take writing as professionally..
Will be waiting of another fiction from you.. Pls pls pls... write more...
Love and God bless you,
