I agree with MrinalR,
She can't say much because she's keeping a secret, which she doesn't want anyone to know. In her head it's not only she's not only clinging onto her but Malini wouldn't take care of Cheeni and might harm to hurt her.
Respecting Malini, one thing she's the biological mother, a part of Cheeni. Second Imilie somewhere hold herself guilty of Malini's situation, unintentionally being the step sister, sautan, then the PF, which effected Cheeni.
Wr to Narmada, when it comes to Imilie herself, she doesn't really stand up for herself. She didn't expose Malini till it's matter of t -family, till then she went through character assassination.
Narmada's incident - she was guilty of Aryan being at NDE, and following that she was talking about she being stained.. her confidence was broken.
After all it's a daily itv show, hard to keep consistency and character intact, logic, don't even know if that exists?
I am finding it difficult to understand both at times, hoping future episodes will bring some light. Don't understand Aryan's hatred for Imilie, he just looks as he's throwing tantrum. Don't understand his motive, unless it's his plan to trigger/bring out old Imilie by triggering her to fight. Words exchanged on that unfortunate night was at the heat of the moment, after five years it doesn't look right.
I still don't understand why Aryan came to PD? What's his motive? Why is he giving one too many information to Malini?
As everyone else if not for FK & SK, episodes are not really connectable.
In today's episode SK really lived Imilie when Aryan taunted her for her life situation and poverty. She was almost about to burst. Her hurt is so visible, I really felt for her. How does Aryan withstand that? It seems like beating a zombie, there's no life in her unless it's to bring her old self back.
Btw , I hated that he brought a shop for Cheeni. Like Mango ji said in another thread, it's just teaching wrong thing to a child. Similar to Imilie making her partner and letting phone sneak into her class. There's nothing wrong in being poor, it's about how you take it.
