True. But what payback?! Its not like he confessed in Mahabaleshwar. If he had it'd actually solved all the problems. He understood why Sai was upset n how the story he told her n the yoga woman made her feel. But he was too "hurt" by her words to confess. He left even when Sai refused to come back home after ousting. He gives up way too easy. He would have let Sai go to devkit house too post her accident. He got Sai emotional with mention of aabaa but otherwise he'd let her go. He would not have gone to see Sai in hospital if Sai herself hadnt been looking for him. He wouldn't have brought her home after her accident if Sai didn't see any other option and Aai hadnt blackmailed her n made the decision for her. Basically he gives up too easy. The only time he truly did act was to stop her after the revelation drama post his accident when she tried to leave. He firnly took her bags and walked away. And that made Sai feel good. She smiled because she was reassured that he really did want her with him.
Unlike V, Sai is brave and doesn't give up too easy. She will eventually if it becomes outright rejection n matter of pride/self respect. But she has always swallowed her pride for him. Whether it be to apologize to pp or tolerate Chavannis, ultimately she does bend or apologize. She may have been stubborn but only to make them happy like to get them to attend college show or make pp feel included in her birthday because gharwaale wanted it. Sai does not get bogged down easily.
I cant bear to see Sai heartbroken and crushed again. These multiple daily blows is getting too much.
