I've read it again and here are my comments:

Lashy di,fabulous chapter it is👏

Thank you darling 🤗

>>🤗🤗

Poor Ratan Kaka😆,I can imagine his plight of being sandwiched between his people like Bajarang & Bindiya and the impassive stranger who seemed to be only source of help.

>>> 🤣 yes

Stranger sahib shocked me with his 4 dams' demand for water.Was wondering how can our HERO behave like this,for which,now I know the answer😳

Actually stranger hero hua tho kyaa hua... right now, he has a mean streak about him 😆

>>Ah..yesBut I'm loving him😆

Bindiya..Bindiya..she is really one impatient girl😆

Yes she is... and also the catalyst for many things in this story 😆

>>Great!😆

'I hope you realise that even Amrit would have cost us less, Sahib!' the heiress stated, using sarcasm to express her disapproval.

'Of course, it would Sahiba! Because water is more precious than nectar...'

I loved her wit and his retort too😃

>>> 😉

Our Heera and stranger,both are quite wise and quick-witted😉.Love them and you,their creator❤️

Awww gosh ☺️

Heera,the healer is admirable and I love the way you show mutual concern and respect,Heera and her people have for each other.Like,how she tends them with utmost care as well as empathy and their refusal to accept water meant for Baisa,even in such a deteriorating condition. I don't feel it's just a sense of responsibility,its more than that.

Thanks so much dear 🤗

' watching how the maid lifted the delicate ends of her skirt and began making her cautious way around the trunks and chests, Heera promptly added 'And please make haste... don't bother about the embroideries of my attire...'

How can you think of such little details!These things make the narration natural and beautiful.⭐️

>>> ☺️

And the fact that the gallant young lady would not complain about any of it, was what stung him most.

So true.I can understand Ratan Kaka's feeling

>>>

You made me fall in love with not only leads but also the supporting characters❤️

Liked Gauri and Bajrang too.Though both had different opinions on leaving their Baisa alone,concern for Heera is common👍🏼

So well explained, Bindu! 👏

>>Thank you😳

What to say about the next part?Heera's emotional turmoil really moved me😭.It's difficult for me to pick up few lines as every line of her's had a great impact.You are an amazing writer,di👏👏

From her drowning into the water to the end of this chapter was gripping.Though it is expected that the stranger would come to her rescue,his indifferent attitude was definitely unexpected😲

As I said before... his heart is good... but, he is not a charming gentleman... never will be... he is a gruff loner... a recluse... a 17th c survivor ... doesn't believe in humanity... a man whose personality has been shaped his experiences in life... it is up to Heera to... 😉 restore that faith in him!

>>I'm sure she does that😃 and his character is really interesting.

Under the faint rays of the moonlight and behind the gleam of water droplets, there could be no other face that looked more refined. Set against skin that was fairer than fair, the bronzed locks that fell above his shoulders put even the richest shades of brown to shame. With features so sharp and eyes so piercing, she doubted if the man belonged to this country at all. Yes, he was a Mughal, but a Mughal from another land. Her mind went back to the various paintings and books on culture that she owned - trying to find a match 'Not a Mongol. Or a Turk...' she supposed 'Persia? Yes that's it...he's Persian!'

Wow!I'm speechlessWhat a description👏

Thanks ☺️

'Are you blind, or are you plain bizarre?'

He'd finally questioned, dispelling the oddest spell of silence he knew. It was a question he was meant to ask a few moments ago, but for some strange reason 'Hazel' were the first words that came to his mind. Hazel - the colour of her eyes. Blacks, he'd seen. Blues and greens he'd seen. Even browns he'd seen. But such an exquisite tint of hazel, he had not.

Again

Again ☺️

Did he actually suspect her to be the kind of lady, who went around groping strangers for no apparent reason otherwise?

Ha..ha..I thought the same while reading for the first time,what does he think of Heera?😆

In chapter 5, you realise why he was behaving that way 😆

>>I did😆

Phew..I edited it many times and hope it makes some sense😆

Sense? this is exemplary... thanks so much for being here, Bindu.. you are like the beautiful rays of sunshine hanging around here..

>>God!!my turn to ☺️☺️☺️☺️☺️..Lashy di,you made my day with this line Love you so much🤗❤️

Finally,a big hug🤗 and 👏👏 to you for this chapter.Comments on next two chapters,later😳

Thanks Bindu... and thank you again, Sherry
@ 155pari

The chapter left me speechless dii😛Once more! So many twists and turns! Great one!😃
Thank you 🤗

'I will slaughter his men just like they slaughtered my love...' the rings were digging indents into his palm because of how hard he'd clenched his fists 'And you all will bear witness to it...'
Mahendar is so enraged over the loss of his loved one! Indeed anyone will be! After knowing that the lass was so brutally killed by a Mughal man! Unlike his old self, he had transformed into a furious man who wanted to give merciless death to Khalil! He will protect Harka now... Even after Durga's death, he'll keep his promise!😊

Yes dear

'She wasn't even given the decency to mourn in peace... and was driven away from her homeland... I vow to seek her out and return her rightful home back to her...'

Reading this lines, I felt like he is protecting her like a dutiful brother!😃Surely he will! And not only Harka but every villager! 😊

dutiful brother? 😲

Shifting to Heera's situation, she still in shock about her Jiji's death. Ever moment is crystal clear in her memory! And why not? After all she lover her elder sister so much❤️

of course

Heera has so many doubts and her doubts are absolutely valid! She's thinking so much about the persian... So many unanswered questions!

Honaa hi thaa! 😆

'Motlu' I found this name quite funny😆.. i don't know why😆 He tasted the pilaf but found it incomparable to the food his maharaj kaka cooks! Rajasthani dishes..😊

I think chacha jaan needs masterchef lessons from Maharaj kaka😆

And Gokul is acting understanding person here. Taking a look on the situation, he is doing really well to handle it! no fuss!😛 and also taking care that his baisa doesn't face anymore problems!

Of course!

A precious belong of heera! A reading glass...Her lifeline!😊

Yes... a magnifying glass 😳

So the lady had called bajrang for knowing more about khan sahib!

Yesss

'He'd said that it must belong to our 'Sahiba'... now, I might be wrong...' he's sounding ironic here!😛

he's quite sharp... instantly recognized that bindiya isn't the sahiba,but heera!👏

he recognised that during first meeting itself... their language itself must have let him know it... 😳

Heera's glimpses fell upon the diamond ring that adorned her finger - a ring that'd been jiji's favourite, and thus now her own favourite one too. After losing the person with whom she shared all opinions and thoughts, the ring was beginning to fill an emptiness by becoming a passive friend of sorts. And, during every sleepless night over the past week, the lonesome younger sibling had found herself spending a good while staring at that precious possession. Conversing with it. Wanting to unload her many worries upon it.

Emotionally connected with her sister ring!😃

Yes dear..😳

Amazing!👏🤗

Love you!🤗

Update soon!😃

LOVE YOU MORE 🤗

Now that I've finished with 6 (well, nearly 7 chapters) I would like the readers' suggestions on one thing - 😊

1) Update every week - is it too much to catch up? Or do you prefer it that way?
>> Stark contrast to Jahnu?😲😲😲 I'm terrified with your performance 🤣 But post it as soon as you finish! 😛😉😆
2) Anything else to make it an easier/more accessible read?
>>So far so good!👏

Thank you all for being here... and for your support... it means a lot... 🤗
