Chasing Dreams- Thd7 CHP42, PG 130, Link to THD8 & CHP43, PG143 - Page 39

first of all dii i fyd it hard to read such emotional and painful updates... bt that doesnt mean i ll quit no... as a matter of fact its the reality of the society in recent yers...

folks fall in love ...that tym their heart is ruling ovr their brains.. and they dnt see the futr of their relation... its just that they see its just about love.. bt who knws by tym love is most demanding...

Being in love is easy bt crossing the hurdles being in love is hard..

Here Khushi was a new butterfly came out of her sweet sofy cocoon.. so she fell in love with the new surrouding as it was restriction free and grls more commonly fall to this.. as all of nw want a restriction free life.. as teen.. or wen u are stepping out for first of ur place wer u wer pampered as princess and wer restricted for ur benefits..

bt no teen ir young one cnsidr for once about their parents wen falling in love...

wen the cons. start appearing.. dey realise wat wrong dey did..

khushi while falling in live might hav thought about her parents bt that tym the new feeling of love was more superior than wat she must tbink of her parents.. its like we think parents will pamper our all wishes and end of the day dey ll accept...
and it happns parents accept deir kids evn aftr long many years bt wat about the humiliation dey face in that period of tym... can dat evr be gaind back...???
Its the worst to see ur parents facing the worst in society just because of ur one wrong move.. Dey may forgive u at the wnd of the day bt ek malal kahe na kahe reh jata hai... That was our upbringing that bad that our children brought this bad in their lives..


khuahi nw realise that it was always about him ..in this relation .. bt was she nt a equal participant to the act... wen a is good in relation no obe realise to see who is ruling bt wen the worst phase knock ur hearts .. den u repent and start counting the falls..

Khushi as a women ebterpreneur can prove herself a strobg one as... unril nw she was a grl bt nw she is a lady who is about to give birth to a life.. so she gain more maturity in this period..

Nd being weak can nvr bring u out of ur turmoils btr u fight back for ur rights..

I cant say khushi is completely wrong bt sme wer she is also responsible for wat her basket hold..

Arnav ... he say he love the lady.. so y cant he see the humiliation she nd her parents are facing.. ia thia just about love of pleasure..
khushi can be cnsidrd as an immature as she is young bt arnav being enough old .. cant he think once ovr the situation..

He is stiff on his decision.. Bt in love it is to give up for ur partner and his/her happiness.. Wer he stand in that.. While.khushi gav in his love.. she evn accepted the relation ... As he wantd.. I appreciate this..


I agree if arnav was frustrated with the situation dnt giv him the right to speak like this.. Infact he should act more wise..
Bt he gt spilld soon


Overall arnav should cnsidr once her turmoil and wat she is going through...

At last its always a grl who is accused and made guilty to the worst while men is out as a free fly... Y so?? Is always a grl who has to compromise .. Foe love.of her lifw frm her.partner frm her parents..
At the end of the day its just khushi who lost badly ... Arnav too is in pain bt y its always that his opinion should matter.. Excepted hw was clear frm day one.. Bt in love u hav to stand by ur partner in unexpected phase also..


Its just my thoughts.and opinion... May be ame agree to this whilw othrs may disagree.. Bt its my personal ..

Call me conservative, call me traditional but I agreed with Khushi's parents! Both Garima's and Shashi's reactions to their little girl's secret life were so natural, it felt real!! And this is just for live-in arrangement, once they come to know she is pregnant they will collapse at least Garima will..so there goes the hope of support from them..

A live-in is an experiment started by western society, for a compatibility check and it can result in a marriage. So when Khushi agreed for this, I had a teeny weeny hope that Arnav may change his stance at least for her parents sake, just like Khushi started to hope..but I don't even want to criticize him now or give him credit that he was clear from the beginning.. We just know that they are not compatible..

As for Khushi's decision, I respect her decision, no matter what.. I would applaud her if she changes her mind but wouldn't berate her if she didn't. I agree, she would need a lot of courage and support from her family and friends( Payal ) even if she doesn't get any from her partner. Khushi is still vey young and in a vulnerable state, may be her decision would be different if she were in her thirties..and it is a lot to take from the society to be a unwed single mother..I wouldn't be surprised if she made this decision to save her parents from shame..

As for parting ways, it is wise decision on her part, otherwise I would consider she has no self respect and has turned out to be as selfish as Arnav is...

My heart is aching though...

I don't know what would be Khushi's decision ,but whatever be the decision I hope some 10 years back she doesn't feel guilty for getting rid of the baby or for that matter resents the baby. She should just remember whatever is good for her is good for the baby too.In there is another problem of acceptance from the society, (though that be sorted if she moves abroad as somebody said there would be a book 2). There is no point bringing the baby into the world where he won't be loved enough, if she is capable of giving all that to the baby only then should she should think of embracing motherhood.

I loved Shashi, in this he did the right thing and that was the breaking point for Khushi, she just walked out of it.

I have no hopes from Arnav here Khushi takes 180 degree turn for his love for this relationship and he is not even trying to bent a bit and be a bit flexible in his stance.

For the sake of a god damn baby he is ready to let go off this relationship and ready to see Khushi walk away. Damn you, Arnav. He didn't even go to see her in the clinic whether she is fine. Questions like 'how is she' 'she didn't even want to go through this' 'is she fine', doesn't even bother him. Which just means he never loved Khushi enough what he loves more is his bachelorhood.

To repell away pests like Arnav we have special baby repellant spray available in the nearby stores. In this chapter I'm beginning to hate him. He didn't even try to bargain like marriage but no baby.

I'm really sorry if any of my comments offended you, but I couldn't stop myself today. Looking forward to the journey ahead.

woho! just caught up on the last few chapters and boy o boy this was awesome.
i so want to smash aranv's head and make him see sense . poor khushi !

Pheww...that was quite an eventful update. Loved it

This was heart wrenching to read both for the parents and Kushi. This is my strict opinion and I do not expect anyone to have the same or agree with me. I can't fault the parents as they feel deceived, feel like the trust they placed in her was not reciprocated and mostly because the world they come from does not include scenarios where a girl freely live with a man without marriage. I know because my parents are the same and it was very hard for them to accept that I was dating someone who is a westerner. In my case, he turns out to be more supportive and valued my principles. He knew that marriage will give us the respect and peace from society and our family. If you truly love each other, then this is not a sacrifice of your principles. I know that Kushi saw herself with Arnav and only Arnav for the rest of her life and I thought he did too as he keeps telling her he loves her and that she was different from the other relations he had. Then why not erase the obstacles in their path? I was glad at the beginning when you showed his POV and show us how he felt remorse for the words he used and his reactions. He is entitled to react badly to the unexpected news but he was hurtful to her. I wonder what answers he got from the questions he asked himself especially the one where he asks how he would react to Kushi keeping the baby and moving away from him? Grow a pair Arnav as you are not acting your age. This girl has been so selfless and gave everything to make the relationship work. What has he given her? As a grown man, he should perhaps find out why he hates the idea of marriage and family and try to resolve his issues before hurting someone who loves him.

Hey NB and other active readers of this forum... I was reading some of the comments ... I agree with most of them...

This is what i dreaded..All along... and now it has happened...
There's no false hopes now... surprisingly, I feel much better now...
No lies and no secrets. And the good thing about this whole episode is that Khushi can now decide what she wants in life with a clear mind..There shall be no confusion... The worst has happened. Whether she decides to keep her baby or not is her decision. And I won't comment on it.
And her parents' reaction was natural. Most Indian parents would have reacted in the same manner..
And I'm not even gonna mention 'him' here...
He doesn't deserve Khushi... Or any other girl for that matter...
Its true that he was clear about his no-marriage, no-children policy from the beginning. But it is also true that Khushi accepted his terms only after his accident. When she almost lost him forever... So the accident is what made her forget her principles to be with him..The triggering factor.. And is it a crime to expect the same in return??
To hope against hope that he would come around when he's on the verge of losing her forever???????????????
But still, she's the one to blame... i donno...
I wish her strength...
And I'm thankful for the fact that Shashi hasn't given up on her.. She still has her father... And thanks a lot for not including Manorama-Garima convo...
Waiting for the next chapter NB ji...;)

Am back after reading the update again and many comments too.. what I feel is, if there is no baby, this relationship is over i.e if Kushi aborts, then there wont b any future for Arnav Kushi..she will never forgive him for not standing upto her in front of her parents..what Garima Shashi is did is what 99% Indian parents would do..even if Kushi had told this instead of Manorama, their reaction still would be same..but good that Manorama told them and they came to confront, else Kushi would still b in her dream world of Arnav marrying her some day..now atleast she knows his feelings r same as day one of this relationship and I love you from him has not changed anything..
