Totally agree with you...today's epi rocked AND your post rocks too 👍🏼
Love how you captured the pleasant essence of today's epi 😊
Today I saw the warmth and softness for Khushi return to Arnav's beautiful eyes. That was missing yesterday...but boy! I was so happy to see his caring side come out today.
High points of the story today:
Arnav being Arnav and NOT the haughty ASR today...
Arnav opening the door for Khushi, being the only one from the Raizada family springing into action to help Khushi
Asking her if he should call the doctor, enquiring about meds for Shashi
Pausing outside the door and glancing back...obviously for Khushi cause he felt her distress! - and something more...
Arnav visibly uncomfortable when Khushi's fiance was being summoned...I loved how he squirmed!
Him apologizing to Payal with so much sincerity in his voice and eyes...and admitting his fault and exonerating Khushi from the blame placed on her shoulders for that fateful night's fiasco
Arnav being amazingly calm and patient about the whole tire puncturing incident. 😆
Though he was understandably irritated with Khushi, who left no stone unturned to make fun of 'Uncle' in front of the mohalla kids 😆, he was not harsh or raging mad at her. Kudos to him!
Arnav's mischievous super cool parting shot to Khushi that he will not say Thanks to her 😆
Khushi saying Thanks and Sorry to him without hesitation...this girl knows when she's wrong and will make amends, no matter what she has to do for that...
Low points of the story today:
Manorama making yet another cruel condescending remark taking potshots at the Guptas' modest means, despite the gravity of the situation at that time!
And when Payal touched her feet for blessings her inner thoughts clearly giving us a glimpse of what Payal has to endure at her hands once she's married to Akash...I'm already dreading that.
Having to see Shyam... he slithered away yet again!
Garima and Buaji still not suspicious about Shyam's sudden disappearance...
Sush, I agree that Shashi's facial expressions looked OTT...but, at that time I could not help but feel pity for him - how frustrating for him to not be able to tell anything to the family! He saw Anji and recognized her and could not do much but make those spasmodic jerky facial movements...and no one can decipher them. As a father, its a heartbreaking situation to be in - he cannot do anything but witness his daughter's life being ruined 😵
I loved Arnav and Payal's conversation, but cringed when Khushi jumped in and drove Arnav back into his reclusive shell...he lost no time making a hasty retreat. She needs to learn to give him space in situations like this. I feel that sometimes Khushi is way too impulsive and speaks before she thinks.
The tire puncturing thing...I thought it was a juvenile thing to do and the significance of the whole scene was questionable to me.
BUT...I loved the light moments that followed, particularly because Arnav was relatively calm...also, these were the good Arhi moments full of light humor.
I loved the way the epi ended...these two are so cute togeher. Her mischief and his wry sense of humor...
Oh and when he opened the door for her to take in her Babuji, those few seconds they looked at each other had so much intensity...unbelievable!
I'm sorry for the long post...just had so much to write today!!
