Many many congratulations on the well deserved new thread my love 🥳
Choti, yet again you floor me with your ability to portray so much by not having your protagonists say much at all. As Rumi said, "In Silence there is eloquence. Stop weaving and see how the pattern improves." Them just being with each other leading to a beautiful slow realisation, and acceptance, of their feelings for the other. Culminating in them "listening" to the other. The slash of red struggling out from behind the night sky. Albeit a streak on the horizon just now, but there nevertheless. A promise of the burst of golden hues to follow.
The desire was there the last time he watched her eat pani puri as well but now there is loving indulgence as well. A voluntary aiding by getting the chai. I'm loving how their relationship is moving on. Every bit of this will be needed when she comes to know of NK. Kya hoga?
If looks could kill! Poor Happyji! But he saw the love in the eyes of the Pardesi. And Khushi couldn't wait to start reading ;)
