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...

Thank you, thank you! You are so nice, Gen. I cannot really believe how someone can be so optimistic and so full of life and sunshines after what you've been through. I pray for your health and lots of happiness for you. I hope you'll send me a good news soon. (I hope it's fine to say that)

Thank you for the lovely duas. They are needed on a daily basis. I'm glad you are strong enough to move on, ecstatic to call you a friend. I hope this bond stays strong.

And no, WHT isn't on this OS. Something different takes place in that verse. Though i can incorporate this in that story if you want me to.

The emptiness is the thing that I wanted to write but wasn't sure how to, I just hope I did it justice. And the acceptance is hard, no matter what you lose. Because there are certain things that you can never ever replace. I'm still sorry for reopening old wounds.

I'll try to update the other stories soon.

And sharing is loved here, so you can ramble as much as you want to.

Thanks Arshi, I'm glad you liked this OS. I wasn't expecting many people to like this. *I'm blushing *

I'll try but is there anything in specific you wanna read?

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.

Your words are so much prettier than my OS itself! It makes me SO happy! I love words, words are actually a means of an escape for me from the pain we call life. Call it my choice of fix but yes, they help me get away from harsh realities. It's so nice that people here are understanding enough to get my angsty work and appreciate it.

Thank you for liking this OS, this Gauri and this Omkara.

*hug accepted and returned *

And I'm sorry to have made you sad with this, I usually like to leave a smile on people's faces with my work. But sometimes this just sort of happens.

I haven't seen you here, may I know your name. I hope you like my other works too!

Thanks for being such a great friend Faye... I thank you for your prayers and I hope someday I can give you that news too!

If we're gonna be lifelong friends, there's something you need to know about me... it is notoriously hard to piss me off... or even make me feel bad about something. I'm like a real-life, slightly more sober version of early IPK Khushi Kumari Gupta, if Khushi has pursued academics and loved the color black. So I want you to feel free to say anything and everything that you want to when you're talking to me. In my opinion, friendship doesn't come with expectations or a social code... it's one relationship in your life where you can be as free and wild as you want to be...

I must have misunderstood about WHT... but like you already probably know from my previous ramblings, what I want the most is to read your vision, your ideas translated to paper. If I really want to read something particular from you, I'll just come out and ask for it. I wanna know what happened in WHT now... I was just trying to close a mental loop and this fit so I just went with it... If WHT has another (painful for Omkara) backstory, I wanna know that too!

Thanks for letting me ramble on Faye... if you need someone to vent at or just shoot the breeze with, I'm always here.

That said, I'm eagerly waiting for more word magic from you!

The entire sisterhood is waiting with bated breath for Gauri to walk out of Oberoi Mansion! 😆 I do disagree with you on Om not being wrong.However one may justify his prejudice, objectively we as viewers do know he is wrong about Gauri. 😉

I'm not justifying Gauri's actions at all, she's the product of the adarsh bahu/patni trope that desi soaps trot out all the time. Between the messiah complex and the ends-justify-means arrogance (tareeka galath hai lekin niyath nahin in soap parlance!) she's lied and manipulated her way thru her time with the Oberoi Family. The mangalsutra around her neck has become the millstone around Omkara's so of course he wants her gone and pronto. That said, it's a bit of false equivalence to suggest that her faults (legion though they may be! 😛) are bigger or even equal to Omkara's. No matter how affected he was through his life by his father's infidelity, to jump to the worst possible conclusion based on flimsy evidence shows deep seated prejudice and a lack of empathy. The so called seeing is believing notion doesn't hold much water either - selective viewing is perhaps more harmful than not seeing at all and Om is all too ready to fit even a sliver of "evidence" into his "giri hui aurath" narrative. And then there's the famed adherence to truth, which is really a bit of nonsense. He's happy to lie if circumstances justify it even if Gauri has just taken lying to a whole new level! 😆 Sure, Gauri needs to have walked out a long time ago but Om was happy to have her stay as long as she was of use to him. For him to constantly fling her presence in OM in her face is a fine bit of hypocrisy.

My point is not to assign blame to one or the other - they're meant to be flawed characters who end up falling in love against all odds. The odds look insurmountable to me just now but heck maybe the writers and ShreNal will make me eat my words. 😃 For anyone who believed that Gauri has only herself to blame for her heartbreak,in today's episode we quite literally saw Gauri helping to shoot herself in the foot

I'm sorry for rambling on about the characters on your OS. I can't wait for the penny to drop on Omkara and for him to painfully recall every single unearned insult he's hurled Gauri's way. If you feel up to it I'd love to read an OS exploring that. I usually love the happy endings and the one true love stories but given the place the show is in right now I need some angst and justice to even the scales! Thanks for helping to provide it here, Faye 🤗
