Dear Sandhya
I thought you went for the jugular in your last update.. but this one is fantastic.. even better than the one previous. I haven't finished reading yet, but I felt compelled to start writing.
That exchange between Khushi and Naniji was bittersweet. I saw two women, separated by time, but very similar - both loved and lost. Both courageous to continue with their lives. The wisdom that Naniji shared with Khushi was heartfelt and timely. It felt like something that I should hear once in a while, to remind myself of those important things in life I tend to take for granted..:)
Ok, my heart was pounding on that beach! I knew that Arnav was going to get ready to battle, but perhaps my sympathies should be with Khushi.. :) nope, she didn't need any sympathy from me.. she had her beer bottle!! ha ha ha.. :) that was brilliant..
But then, the storm came.. As a reader, I am satisfied with the way you handled their encounter, exchange and emotion. There was a genuineness in the way these two talked, at each other at first. Arnav has a lot of explaining to do and the way you have him explain is simply tremendous. It was an intense exchange, nothing that disappointed me. The intensity was necessary.. but I also like the honesty you bring to your characters. When it is time to lay the cards down, you don't have them do it in half measures. :)
What a great job Sandhya! It felt right, it felt like it needed to happen and I cannot envisage this update any other way!!
ps: What can I say, my crush for your Arnav Singh Raizada is almost epic and an affliction now.. :) see my pps below.
pps: So, it wasnt Aman all the way, it was Arnav that kept a watch. What can I say? His integrity is something to contend!
ppps: nope, I never thought it was Khushi's baby.. I am referring to your prologue. :) I have a few theories of my own.. but I will wait for you to unveil. :)
