Hauntingly beautiful Faye... This was just so painfully necessary.
Sometimes, in real life unlike tv dramas and movies, there come times when its too little too late. Life doesn't miraculously heal itself and people don't suddenly become whole again. When you lose the one thing that grounds you, it leaves you unmoored and floundering in a sea of uncertainty from where even love and family can sometimes not bring you back.

As someone who's been through miscarriages, I know I have deep and lasting scars from those experiences... I know I've irrevocably changed as a person, become a bit harder and maybe not as innocently happy as I used to be before. I can completely understand Gauri's thought process here and I sympathize entirely.

She needs a new start more than anything else... and she should get it. I do want her to leave Omkara, even in the show, and start anew. Remake herself and live life for her own self rather than for anyone else.

Thanks for being such an amazing writer and making us feel things so intensely.

I look forward to more from you soon!

Gosh Gen! I didn't knew about this! I'm sorry. I really don't know what to say; I feel guilty for even posting this now.

Your words are so beautiful, hauntingly beautiful, leaving an everlasting brand. I haven't gone through anything like this, but I do understand a slice of what you must have gone through. I'm not claiming to know exactly what you must have felt but... I'm sorry I can't really say anything. I just hope you are fine now.

Gauri starting anew is all what woh humsafar tha is about but this OS just sort of... I'm glad you understand what Gauri goes through in this. I hope I've managed to portray the emotions correctly.

Thank you for posting your thoughts and sharing your feelings.

I really liked this OS Faye Di. Yes it's not all happy and fun but it's so real. Omkara has regret and grief but it's guilt and not love. I'm happy that Gauri made a choice to walk away while there was a piece of her still to save. I so hope you will continue this story. Darker and emotionally intense stories always make happy endings that much sweeter. And I'm so curious about where to from here for Om and Gauri. Really love your writing!

Bingo! You got Omkara right!

I think any of us would've done exactly what she did. Saved ourselves while we had the chance because at the end of the day, no prince is on his way. We have to be our own saviour.

I don't really know where they are supposed to go from here; I'm clueless. Do you have any ideas?

Thank you for loving this angsty crap that I keep on throwing at you.

There's absolutely no need for you to apologize Faye... First off, you couldn't have known. Second, I chose to share this with you only now... as a response to your superb writing. I can't go through life getting offended or emotional at everything that resembles something I've experienced. That is the job of the republicans in this country... 😆

Please don't feel bad... I only shared my experiences because I felt like it. It wasn't meant to hurt or be some sort of guilt trip. I honestly loved your work and this was sort of a cathartic experience for me. Miscarriages happen everyday to so many women... they go through the pain, deal with it and get back up again. At least for those who aren't forced to have induced miscarriages in our country because they're carrying a child of the wrong gender.

I pray to whatever divine force you believe in that you never have to face something like this in your life... and I'm grateful for your understanding, support and concern... I believe I've accepted it now and am able to move on with my life.

Is WHT supposed to be a continuation of this? Then I just found out that I love it so much more... That Gauri is generous enough to have gone through when she did and still want to check in on the Oberois and Omkara when he comes to her wanting her to return with him... it makes me proud of her really.

Mostly, when you go through something like this, you feel empty for sometime... then there's that utterly destructive phase where you're just angry. Angry at everything, at everyone and at God for having dealt you this lousy hand in life. Anger at the helplessness you feel, at the inability to protect the one thing that was entirely dependent on you... it's quite intense. And it only goes away with acceptance... which is even more difficult.

Anyways,enough of my emotional rambling... I can't wait to read more from you Faye! Eagerly waiting for your updates...

Dear FayeMia,

"The true alchemists do not change lead into gold; they change the world into words.

William H. Gass

Thanks for being that very alchemist dear one.

Just to let you know- I live and breathe words.

To encompass the raw emotions of the characters you come to love, with the only weapon a writer possesses- the WORDS, is something that warms my heart in a way I will always fail to explain.

I could feel you bleed through these very words that left a lump in my throat and a knot in my heart, and yet ironically all I could say at the end was "Beautiful". How can something so tragic be beautiful? Maybe because it had this very thin layered icing of something we all love to dwell on- Hope and new beginnings.

As I read your words and breathed them, I lived Omkara... I lived Gauri and by the end of it they had worked their magic...and I realise I will be forever enchanted.

All I wish for you dear is that may you always remain an alchemist-- Changing the world into words.. Thank You

Here' a hug coming your way... to fill in for what my words may have failed to portray

Faye, thank you for writing so movingly at a time when Gauri is being subject to such degradation. It's a refuge from the slash and burn of Omkara's callous words. Accusing Gauri not just of cheating on him but also passing off some other man's child as his was for me beyond the pale. To add insult to injury he threatens to cut her out of the child's life. Can there be understanding, friendship much less love after this? I'm wondering how the writers will salvage a real love story for RiKara now and grateful that in this OS you don't try. In a society where patriarchy and misogyny are at its core, it's troubling to me to have this sort of degrading portrayal of the adarsh bahu. Props to you for letting Gauri cut the Oberois out of her life. I for one would love to read more of your angsty work - at least until this terrible indignity to Gauri stops.
