I was biding my time, waiting for words to come to me.. I really don't know what to say.

The little gestures, the insignificant [to most] words, and just the way Maan and Geet behave with each other says so much.

Loved the update, H. :)

I was trying to say that they say things that might not mean much to others, but it holds significance for them.

See what I meant? My words are all jumbled up.. :/

I am reading NY Times for the first time...and I must say I really like your style though I am curious about why your account got banned when you are such a great author...queries aside, I do like your work...I remember reading a story you wrote about Geet as a prostitute and that was quite good...

what surprises me though is why you need comments for you to write...you are a great author and you need to believe in yourself...I guess Geet as a show has ended and ppl have stopped reading Geet ff's and moved onto Arshi...you can start your own blog and people will follow you even there...:)

What I liked best about this part was his analogy... the way he saw Geet and thought of the first time he held Anshu, although he thought of it in the context of not being able to handle her, the thought itself makes me feel like she is just born and has a whole new world to explore. It is true, isn't it? Every experience we go through teaches us things and makes us different people... I loved it.

Her story was something we knew from the earlier version as well, and I had expected it. But I find Meera's reactions very realistic and hence appreciate it more too...

Awesome H.

Filling for d gap left by someone is quite painful & then doing all d mundane activities without any emotional support is heart renching, Geet has gone through lots of hardships. Wish all her old habits goes away & like this sunrise her life is filled with all brightness

I love this Maan...he's quite expressive from the earlier version...also the Anshu factor...makes him more considerate n emotional!!!

Was this vista point at niagra? i remember that setting the last time...

Meera is stronger n you seem to have dedicated more lines for her character in this series...i like that!👏

wonder how miserable Geet must have felt for being a stop-gap bride...😡 Maan seems shocked too!

congrats for the new thread...

FabULOUS!🤗

"When certain people in my life will give up no matter what, which is their problem, she will never give up and that is her problem."⭐️

"And your problem, Geet?" he asked without stopping a beat and she smiled sardonically.👏

"Caught in a dilemma of not knowing when or whom to give up on...Me or him?"💔

"Until yesterday, giving up on him also meant that you were giving up on you in some ways," he spoke when a few seconds of silence had settled between them, their eyes fixed on the golden radiance that gleamed across the horizon, "But after that clean snap, he just made that decision a lot easier for you. And I'm going to quote the cliche at this point by saying, there is so much more for you in life.👏" Yes this line is a cliche but what else can u say to someone whose life has all of a sudden fallen apart. I loved how both spoke to each other by not looking at each other.

"I wrote long letters to my people back home. About the 2 mile walk from my apartment to the grocery store, carrying loaded bags of vegetables that were so heavy that at times I thought my hands would fall off. Of flooded kitchens because I used the wrong detergent in the dishwasher," She said and a pitiful smile for her former ignorant self came on, "About the fire alarms that made me run and hide under the bed and the summers that were too bright and the winters that were too white and cold. And they were only proud telltales because those foibles were still being made by their daughter on a strange land that was novel and far above their reach" Geet gave an insight of whats it like to move away from your comfort zone here she moved to a different country. 😡Dev u awful man who could u let her go through this poor soul learnt from the best in how to face the problems which is herself.

"Especially, when he provides for you and paid for that discontinued dream of education which would have never materialized otherwise." Isn't it ironic how we women end up depending on men & when they let us down rather than look at the negative we look at the positive? Here Geet was grateful that Dev allowed her to pursue further studies. She paid a high price for it, her loneliness. Would like to read what the hell Dev was upto, was her screwing someone over while she had her head down in books?

"The good things about habits are, they can be broken. You can rebuild yourself, your days and everything else."🤗

"Of course there is always forgiving and forgetting, but we can always cross that bridge when we come to it," he ended, thinking that was enough said. Loved how he used the word 'we' already hinting to her she is not alone in this 😊

"Now that I been have passed over from both of them, I wonder, if there are others too?"😭💔💔

"You have the people who can make any four walls into a home, Geet," she looked up at him, her eyes withholding a fight from keeping the tears spilling into her cheeks, "Meera, Yash and every one else. Can't we start with that?"🤗Maan I speak for Geet & say 'yes I am very happy with that'

I loved the way Maan said 'can't we start at that" very carefully he used the word 'we' Geet doesn't have 'everyone else' right now she only has 3 people Meera, Yash & Maan.

Maan did NOT overstep his limit, be it both leaning on the bonnet when he really wanted to touch her, or when Geet turned to him when Meera walked away that was just brilliant.

H if only I could kiss your cheeks now. 🤪
