Thanks Kavi

Ek Ladka hai, ek ladki hai, feeling hot hot hot.. In 2F temp I am feeling HOT..!! this is all bcos of Jigs magic..at work, I am reading constantly for last 30 mins :-))
Loved the husband Arnav..he is so sweet helping her wear saree..Kushi went thru every ritual for Nani's sake..so sweet of her..Mile high club and the honeymoon is Bora Bora..wowww
I wanna go to Bora Bora but where is Arnav?? Tu chupa hai kahan, mai tadapti yahan ;-)

what a fantastic end to a wonderful FF.. I wanted a blog only update and you gave one in IF itself..thank you ;-)

"Revealed" another contemporary story from you..loved the prologue..will start speculating soon..my guess is Arnav is stay at home dad ;-) thats the first thing came to my mind..

Thanks Jigs for Stripped and Shaadi in stripped..we readers are so thankful to you

Ye kya haal bana rakhi hai? Are you feeling alright?

Two simple questions from my Arnavji is all it took to make me realize and evaluate the state of my feelings. How do I feel or more specifically how do I feel after reading this really really special story especially when it reached its final destination?

Sometimes like sweet melody - maybe because of the buzz that is not leaving my mind and the hum is not leaving my lips.

Sometimes like sweet pain - maybe because of the journey that reminds me of the sweetness and the destination that reminds me of the pain.

Sometimes like bittersweet - maybe because a great one has to end to start something new and something good.

Sometimes like bliss - maybe because I just found out that the pleasure of this moment somehow turned into a love of a lifetime.

Whatever my feelings are or whatever my state is, I take all the responsibility but give all the credit to you Jigs for taking us on this journey of emotional roller coaster. It was an exhilarating ride from start to finish and thank you for providing some solace to this discomforting heart by offering a glimpse of what's coming.

Coming to this chapter, right from the groom carrying the wife to the baby talk in the end, it was poetry in motion for me. If it's not poetry, I am not even sure how to explain the assembly of all those beautiful words just to describe the simple act of "taking off clothes"😉

Talking of taking off clothes, how did you manage to make our already hot and spicy meetha even more hot and spicy? And I really liked the way you served that this time especially with those "sprinkles of innocence" on top. I am not sure how else to categorize these wonderful snippets - "How does one sleep on a bed with rose petals spread on it", "Why does he always rip my nice underwear". Needless to say, I devoured it😃.

The exchanged gifts were so thoughtful and it may all be in my thinking or reading more than needed, but I see his life achievement (the company) being presented to her and I see her life achievement being presented to him. More than a million things they have said to each other, I think this one action represents on what the other means to each of them. As you so eloquently put it "What's mine is yours, and what's yours is mine". I guess a Shaadi is all about that and that is what it does to you.

The whole honeymoon sequence was so relaxing and just as I wanted it to be 😉. You not only managed to get Arshi's honeymoon box checked on the checklist, but also added Bora Bora to my checklist of must see places😃.

Finally, going back to putting my thinking hat on about Shaadi in general and this Shaadi special story - what does shaadi mean for Arshi? Why did Jigs grant us this special wish? What can Shaadi add to two already smiling, dancing, happy souls? And what did Shaadi special do for us already happy Strippedeans? I just realized that for all characters in the story and for all the characters reading the story, it made sure that all our smiles got a bit more wider😃😃😃😃 And just for that, Jigs, any number of thank you's to you would fall short and knowing the pains you take to put this together for us, any amount appreciation would still leave room for more.

Lastly, I am feeling so humbled knowing that my ranting/blabber somehow became a part of your worthy cause. If this is all it takes, I will assure you my rant for a lifetime. I am warming up already for the next one. Bring it on babes...Jigs

I don't even know if I should be happy or sad after this chapter...The only consolation is that you will be starting your new story...

So before I present you the final part of Stripped, The Shaadi Special, I wanted to give you a glimpse of what's coming next from me. In the near future, I will be starting a new journey, a story called Revealed. This will be different from Stripped, but I hope you come along for the ride to see a couple's life after being marriage. Below is short preview from the Prologue...

*********************************

"Is this the final draft?"

Her friend nodded, giving her a small smile. She hesitantly took the papers, staying firmly seated behind her desk.

Her heart raced, as she swiftly turned the pages noting the changes she had requested. It was when she reached the last page, she froze. Time stood still, she found herself caressing the bottom of the paper, feeling her heart stop beating.

"Khushi... Khushi..."

"Sorry, can you leave me alone for a while?"

"But..."

"Please La! I need some time to myself..."

She spoke up abruptly, staring up at the woman whose concerned gaze was fixed on hers.

Lavanya Mathur looked at her friend, and partner at the law firm they had built up together. Khushi was masking her emotions, which worked very well for her in her line of work, but she knew what was running in her friends mind. One would know after sixteen years of friendship, not to mention practicing law for the past ten years. Her dear friend was suffering, and keeping it bottled up inside. But she also knew right now, it was best to leave her alone.

Khushi watched as La left her office closing the door behind her. She sighed deeply, pushing her chair back, and stood up to gaze outside the window.

She shivered, despite the warmth in her office, she could feel Chicago's chilling, rigid winter temperature. Her body, bones felt it, but was it the temperature outside or was it where she is standing today in her personal life.

"Arnav..."

She whispered, picking up the photo frame that sat on the window ledge, since she had moved into this office space five years ago.

Her husband... that's what he was referred to in front of society, but is that what she referred to him behind the four walls of their home?
