My dearest Indi,

Absolutely wonderful! Love the pool and the laps, I can just picture our Arnavji and all his muscles/glory in his little speedo's (very European not American), slashing through the pool like a knife. I love to watch the swimming events at the Olympics so I am now substituting Arnav for Michael. This would be something that I would expect from him; rising early, swimming his laps, clearing his mind for the day!
Love the flashback of how he met Kushi, just brilliant and when she placed his still lifeless hand to her chest I had tears in my eyes. He will come back to her, He must for their is no Kushi without Arnav and vice versa.
Continue your brilliant writing I look forward to it always and tell Estair we look forward to her input!

👏xo Cyn



thanks, cynthia, what a lovely note.

confession: i know nothing about the latest swimwear and sports stuff... just that speedo is popular around here and seems to be aspirational, so i saw a picture on the net, liked what i saw and said ta-rrra. but, little speedos? did i say "little"? hawww, naughty cynthia... clever cynthia. 😆 poor michael, but happy indi.

cynthia, about those emotional scenes, tell you, it is amazing how caught up one gets writing them... is this him, is it her, am i right, would he, wouldn't she? if you had tears, means i did something correct. but please always share your gut feel, even if there's something you don't like.

estair's input will turn us all into nuns teehee.

whew!!!!!!!! *wipes brow* i WAS holding my breath I swear!!!!! When one heart is beating, how can the other stop! cant wait to read the next one. love how you are moving back and forth. just got me to wonder if the serial had also followed a back and forth approach, how intriguing it would have been...

i love the idea of Khushi falling into a wide clean pool 😆 and I love it even more that ASR is swimming and swims all the time. seems like a perfect redemption to that miserable three feet, full of floating debris swimming pool in RM.

thanks, rashmi... season 2, let's ask them for back and forth time play. have you ever read harold robbins? used to read him way back... if i am not mistaken he did this pretty deftly... or am i getting my best seller writers mixed up?

about the floating debris fen, i am thinking it ought to be jacuzzoi where a certai man chills out summer evening while his wife washes clothes by the edge. 😆

Indi, I read Ch. 2 last night, was sleepy, but didn't want to wait till next day. After reading, what disturbed me was the fearful state of Khushi when she spent a whole night in that hotel room dreading the worst. Have been reading in newspapers almost daily about atrocities to women, young girls; how they are lured and trapped. The situation is so discouraging for women who want to go out and try something, but these nasty elements who are found almost anywhere in disguises, dash any such hopes of women right away.
Coming back to the story, read it again now. The desire of Khushi wanting to feel Arnav's hands around her when she hugged him, was touching. Loved the bhabhi-nanad scene. Di doing ramanchi? Maybe, maybe not. The whole scene in the hospital room that Khushi spent alone with Arnav was too good, very nicely written.
Still lots of thoughts. Will come back later when I assemble them.

thanks, durga, for reading... and reading once more.

this is fiction, something coming from me, where i am not a very deft story teller, since i have no experience in creating this sort of thing, the least i can do is, go into the characters, think of a situation i want to craft and see how that can come about.

how would khushi jump into a pool where he's swimming alone in the morning, a pool by a hotel in lucknow. as i looked at it... this scenario came to me. you know, durga, couple of years back when i went to delhi, for the first time i saw in leading dailies ads for "massage" euphemism for prostitution, of course. the tone and language were shocking... in respected newspapers, so no one understood what "massage, home/hotel, single/couple, uzbek/mongolian/girls call..." meant? the state of women, the trafficking in our nation, it's all gone out of wack... i grew up in delhi, i am sure a lot of stuff used to happen back then too, but not at this scale, and this flagrant in your face way. i felt i wanted to touch on that vulnerability of every girl... and the scene fitted well. of course, one may argue that goondas wouldn't leave her alone the whole night, they'd drug her or whatever... but really anything can happen in a situation, so i took that creative licence.

if you look at shyam's entry in ipk, equally disturbing... if you see a girl on tv falling into someone's lap, you are free to harass her in broad daylight and pull off her dupatta, pick her up and more,... what are we saying here about us?

glad you liked di/khushi scene. actually, to bring her sis in law back to the moment, di is quite capable of pretending to be more helpless than she is... she wants khushi to wake up, feel... so i don't know...😳.

do share your thoughts again. hope you liked the chapter.

Funny a Jewish nun! Lol we will teach her when she gets older about the romance of Arnav and Kushi maybe when she is 80!!!!!
