Firstly, well done to you for writing about such a controversial issue but one that happens in many societies. The feminist in me is screaming at this bully who was part of the conception to get his satisfaction but yet reacting like a jerk whose perfect little world just got rocked by this news. I loved this guy at the beginning of the story but not sure I like this ass that he has become. I understand he was very clear in his expectations but as Kushi said, we are not God and cannot control everything. She should not be blamed for this for missing a couple of pills and I am hoping after his good night sleep, he will be more level headed. One never makes a decision in the heat of the moment, not something as serious as this. There is no right or wrong decision. Payal needs to be applauded for her level headedness and calming Kushi down. Frankly, if he wants nothing to do with this, then Kushi should make the appropriate decision for herself and her child if this is how she views the baby inside her. Whatever she decides, I also hope she remembers this side of him, this selfishness about Putting himself first - his world, his perfect relationship, etc . . .there are 2 people in this relationship and he needs to start thinking about her as well. I don't think Kushi should go to his family if he does not want to take responsibility for this - it should be pretty clear where he stands if he keeps up this attitude. I feel really bad for her and not sure what she can expect from her parents as far as support. With Mano meeting Garima again, there seems to be nothing but more bad news coming her way. Whichever way you spin this NB, it will be great because you will be portraying the helplessness that a young girl from a traditional family may feel when she gets in such a situation. There are many options and organization that can help them at such times and I hope for our little Kushi, she has at least her best friend next to her to be the support she needs.

Such a wonderful comment..loved it..NB is portraying a helplessness of a traditional girl so well..this can happen to anyone in real life too.

Kripa, this update is going around in my mind since I read it last night..I remember you telling Book 1 of this beautiful FF will end soon and my guess is, Garima Shashi will disown Kushi, Arnav will not be very supportive and finally Kushi won't abort the baby and will move abroad alone..guess too much of desi soaps have fried my mind :-)

Now the situation is messy... Arnav knows and does not like it a bit...hmm it was expected but I thought he would atleast be a bit caring and understanding by trying to understand the situation.. but no hes blaming khushi for it...

I love Payal a true friend who cares for khushi and I agree with her that its khushi who has to decide what to do.. knowing about Arnav, khushi knows his answer but its something very hard for her to deal with... I look at it this way (even though khushi knew what shes getting into) she has sacrificed a lot in this relationship, adjusted a lot... there will be no marriage, so no respect from family and society. Shes already lost a lot and now Arnav wants her to abort the baby (by the way I did not like his tone when he said abort the fetus) and lets say khushi does that she will loose more. I say its still not late, khushi has to be stronger (i know she has been very strong) to face the situation, decide to have the baby... she may not have any support from Arnav and her family but I think payal and maybe raizadas will support her and she can go on with her life... enough of sacrificing.. who knows if she aborts it may cause health problems and that maybe end of a lovely person if not physically but emotionally.

For a relationship to last... both parties need to adjust and sacrifice. No one is perfect, everyone has their own flaws but we have to change for a relationship to work, there may be love and care but if there is no understanding and adjustment not many people will be together. Since Arnav is not putting any effort in doing to adjustment and Khushi has done everything and anything for this relationship... I support her to have the baby even if its to break all ties as this precious baby has done nothing wrong and it was made out of love and it deserves to come into this world and live its life.

I know now why you are referring as Book 1 & Book 2..!!

Thursday seems too far, I'm very restless now :)

I agree with one of the readers, who said if Arnav loved her truly, he wouldn't bind her emotionally to him..

1. He could have compromised on his principles just like she did ( she did because she truly loved him, now paying the price for her love)

2. He would have let her go somehow, seeing her predicament and not emotionally bind her to him..

Anyways, it's time for her to leave him on her own..
I sincerely hope Khushi keeps the baby, because this might be her only shot at being mother..
Only saying it because she may not be able to love anyone else in the future but I will be more than happy if she finds love again..

At this point, I don't care if Arnav is right or wrong , what he did is right or wrong, just had enough of this self-centered man. I won't wish him any ill.. He can have the life he wants with others..

My concern is only for Khushi, I want her to weather the storm, move on and be a loving mother to the baby if she chooses to carry. I know the prologue says otherwise, but she could still change her mind after that visit..

Biting nails..

Hey NB, glad to see you again and hope everything is ok at your end. Giri you are on roll now, back to back updates, love it 😊

Read the entire thread 7 just and wow so many things happened in 4 chapters. How did i feel about the new twists, hmmm...well at the moment just like most of the people, Arnav is started to getting on my nerves 😡 (or he already is on my nerves 😡)and to some extent Khushi too.

Arnav was very vocal about not wanting to have kids or marriage from the beginning but he himself told that he never fallen in love with anybody but with Khushi and everything is different with her. At this point, i was expecting some kind of compromise from Arnav's side. When somebody is in love some compromises are bound to happen and in this case seems like Khushi is the only one making all the compromises. She is pregnant and its not her fault, its combine responsibility but he blamed her for the whole thing.

I love Payal in this story, she has that straightforward and honest opinion about each thing. She was right at the pregnancy issue also, if Arnav doesn't want kids, well there are ways to avoid that without involving Khushi in it..

And Khushi, why does she always blame her for everything. Because of Arnav's life threatening accident, she got so scared to lose him that she is putting everything aside she cares dearly which includes marriage, kids, wedding, rituals and above all she is lying to her parents😕. Agreed that she is in love and she cares for this relationship more than anything but to give up everything for that person who is not ready to give up some of his beliefs, it shouldn't be like that. She has asked Arnav's opinion about this Pregnancy and wanted to take some sensible decision but what Arnav did, well go get the abortion done and she was still giving him time, why 😡.

Sorry if you felt so many angry words but could not help it. I am sure this kind of situations happen all the time but actually reading them was the whole different experience. You are brilliant that you brought up this topic in the form of Arhi. Awesome writing, loving this story 👏😊

Poor Khushi.

Hell gates are going to open for her.

An unsupportive Arnav was not just enough.

Now her mother will know about Arnav and the poor girl will have to bear the brunt of her parents anger alone. Why is it always the woman who has to suffer?

Men are equally responsible, then why aren't they chastised for a woman's pregnancy?

If Arnav was so against having a child, he should have taken steps to deal with it.

Why should Khushi be respondible for it?

I'm just very upset.

Ok the debate already seems to have started in my mind. I haven't read the other comments but I had this one question that I wanted to put before I got carried away with the discussion and forgot.

Does every woman automatically feel the maternal instinct when she gets pregnant and wants to keep the baby?

I hope I don't sound cruel but when I got pregnant the very next month after my marriage I didn't want the baby as I was still studying and I had career ambitions and my husband didn't have a job. Obviously I didn't abort my baby but I was severely depressed for the longest time and could not accept the fact that I had become a mother even after a long time after my daughter was born.

Another question that comes to my mind is that if the father wants to keep the baby and the mother doesn't (as the woman's life undergoes all the changes), I mean the other way round (there can be a possibility) then would the man be right and the woman wrong?
