Dear Lashy,

Congrats for the very beautifully written chapter.

Thanks periyamma🤗

I liked the conversation between Heera and Akbar, "not a word more not a word less"! ( Like Jeffrey Archer's title " Not a penny more not a penny less") Perfect!Kachchitham!

I have marked the best description I liked in the chapter in green, bold.

Thank you... 😳

Red and Bold: The cat is trying to come out of the bag!

Like Divi does her take 5 based on a particular theme, I can see an aircraft theme in your replies - about to take off!!😃

So, when Akbar subsequently looked up at her - at those hauntingly beautiful eyes hiding behind her drape - there was no trace of delicacy in his glance

>>> ☺️

'Was this...' he added 'Was this how it always was?' his tone that'd started off in its typically assertive manner, had subsided into a tone that was slightly more courteous.

>>> Awww

Durga's impulsive action had snatched away their carefree days from both.Not only did the younger sibling lose part of her sight after the accident - the older one lost her childhood too, as she transformed from a sister to a protective mother overnight, compensating for a guilt that she never really got over.

>>> Oh...

Ceasing the odd spell of stillness, he thanked her for her time and patience with a formal nod. Akbar wouldn't deny, her tale was an impressive one - as a child, she'd come to terms with a disability and learnt to adapt to it with a positive attitude too. However, what he hadn't admitted yet, was that hers was the most inspiring life story he'd heard so far. In his travels over the years, he'd had opportunities to meet exceptional ladies - poetesses, musicians, painters, politicians and scholars - but, fact remained that none of their talents could hold a candle to the unique accomplishments of this young lady.

>>> Yes its something that he hasn't admitted... no he isn't in denial... he just hasn't admitted it yet... but it still remains a fact!😉
