Chapter 37.
Related image

The story goes thus...

Oh my, my! How can I do justice to the contents of the chapter
Having read it with an overwhelming rapture
Is it the setting? Or the author's writing?
Which one is more beautiful and which one more exciting ?
Can anyone say that a sweet tastes better in the first bite than in the last?
The chapter though had upturned all the readers' forecasts
It is not what I've read but what I did experience
That has given me a feeling of exuberance!

The couple takes up the journey by a horse for the destination
But the author takes us along with her by her beautiful description
The journey looks uneventful with both of them not uttering a word
Though her mind is packed with questions to ask, which she's not dared
" Why delve on questions when you know you' re not going to like the answers?"
She need not have feared, for the mission is to solve the shortage of water.
He describes his plan to build a canal to solve the problem
She wonders how amazingly he has made it awesome..

The couple has some cute conversation between them
It sets a stage for her to know more about him
'He forgets what he is meant to be saying
She forgets what she is meant to be asking...'
There cannot be better words to explain their emotions
Which the author does with her magic potion!
The potion she concocted and administered to us
Making us wait for a fortnight without any fuss.

The next few moments are enjoyable for them
To quote the author's words in the precise form
'She recognised she'd gotten carried away..
He recognised he'd gotten carried away..'
What a lovely encounter it is for our imagination
No fantasy filmy scene would do proper justification
He wants to solve the problem of shortage of water
Alas! what follows is the problem she faced with a bottle of water!

She gasps for air since the water has rushed into her nose
That makes him rush and go near her very close
He gives her the first aid like a para medic
He blows hard on her face to revive her quick
The closeness between them works out wonderful chemistry
A portrait of lovers that has to be printed in history
" Trust me..I'll protect you.. never let you suffer..."
The words may sure act against all her odds as a buffer

His intimacy causes her to shed a drop of tear
His words on the other hand, allays her fear
She is confused about his actions she has known earlier
And his assurance now not to allow her to suffer and protect her
Her mind still intends to mistrust the double life he led erstwhile
His closeness towards her she is yet to reconcile
He understands her feelings though he justifies his past
Both of them not sure about the future that is forecast..

The author pauses the story here after serving a treat
We enjoyed sumptuously the delicacies in the feast
The role played by the author is as important as the leads
Like a director of a film who takes the overall credits
She has described their intimate moments without any vulgarity
That keeps her on a pedestal by the readers majority
The Chapter is but to read again and again
Every time it is sure to give a glittering shine!

Bonne Nuit from my end!! See you all in the morning!! Happy musing and drooling and dreaming!! 😃

Lashy I have to say AMK is the best fictional romantic character ever! To me, he is at par with Mr. Darcy now which says a lot!! 😃 A double indemnity indeed!! 😆

Really, truly, positively, absolutely, definitely love my Certain Someone!!! 😉😆 And there is nothing 'anuchit' in it, I love him but am not asking him to love me back, okay!! 😆 So please don't jump on me!! 😆

Okay bye!!

My dear emotion queen lashy, no one can describe the emotions of the characters like the way you do.

Thank you so so so much Divya 🤗

Time and again i have always said that we can always expect the unexpected from you, and again with this chapter you did the same. I had expected some sweet moments between sahib and sahiba, but not that kiss.
See... had they just had a normal walk to the spot a few discussions and back.. it would've been a few sweet moments that's all...


and it all started right from her reading his letter and misunderstanding him
the sort-of guilt led her to bring up the Samarth banna topic
and from there started the camaraderie (sort of)
add to it the fact that she had a headache and couldn't see well (which led to the opium effects too)
which meant he had to draw it out for her on the ground... and they had to sit down for a while... where he was mesmerised by her tenacity to 'learn'
From there things took off... even further... him opening up about himself, the choking... etc etc..
So it was more a string of events..


Also found the way heera's mind was wavering from one thought to another very funny.
The poor girl is at crossroads... she is attracted to him, in a way yearns for the man she thought she loved, she loves his company - he is the only one around her age, who can hold an intelligent conversation with her (reminds her of her jiji in many ways)
at the same time, his betrayal keeps coming back

And the way sahib was trying to supress his smile. I was through out imagining parijats expression in this situation😳.
❤️

And regarding the msg in the upcoming chapter, mahendars thought came into my mind, but as usual i know you might have thought something else😆.
>> hayoo


Thank you for some beautiful moments between our lovely couple, this will keep them restless during the brief seperation(hope so).
>>>>😉
Will desperately wait for next chapter
Thank you so much for this... for being so encouraging, Divya 🤗

Chellam, this one's for you... (and for anyone else who didn't get the scene)

Approaching her spot he stood right at her back, enclosing her frame from behind, like a rigid wall, so she wouldn't slip again. And then, with his left arm stretched out, he held the stirrups firmly in place, so she'd have more support to make the climb.

Beyond that, neither did he guide her physically. Nor did he say a word.

But somehow, his silence had only made the situation more awkward. For there was nothing to take her mind off the fact that she could envision the broad shoulders squarely behind her waist. Or that she could feel the invisible traces of warm breath being left on her back as she mounted the horse. Or that she could sense the strong contours of his arm that she used as a bolster while seating herself sideways on the saddle.



She didn't slide back down because he was just behind her like a wall, holding the stirrup so it wouldn't move, and she could use his arm as a bolster (support) to climb.
Of course, Heera had a step stool too.

(The stirrup is that metal loop on both sides of a saddle, inside which you put your foot and climb a horse.)

The journey was quiet and long,

the silence was poignantly strong!
She wanted him to converse with her,
Feelings in her heart longed him to stir!
He kept going, keeping a hold on her,
He walked aside on foot, not going afar!
He could have ridden on a mare but he did not,
He wanted her safety and that is what he got!
She broke the silence, he had a smile,
expecting her questions now for a while!
Curiosity broke its spell, she probed his whim,
He was surprised at her estimation of him!
He showed her the valley and his plan was told,
She asked for a blueprint to feel the map unfold!
Once satisfied she probed for some more,
to know about him, to feel his core!
He admired her regal beauty and poise,
Both wanted to muse, away from all noise!
He revealed his passion of riding at night,
His preference for solitude came to her sight!
He was intrigued, at her interest for him,
Is her heart thawing? His heart went to beam!
On his query she started to laugh,
Riding at night for her is very tough!
To stop her laughter she bit her lip
Seeing this, his heart swelled to take a dip,
In that ocean of nectar, her lips offered,
To taste them fully his heart long suffered!
He gazed at her cheek, her tresses and nape,
He couldn't control his desire that took shape!
Both of them got carried away,
the awkward pause made its way!
She laughed at her own self all upbeat,
Then she was all thirsty from the heat,
He offered his water bag to quench her thirst,
She choked on the water, coughing aburst!
He helped her to regain her normal breath,
But he lost his control and his self-faith!
Her eyes showed admiration luring him in,
did it reflect a belonging to him from within?
He needed to hold her face and tresses,
grazing her cheek and beholding her graces!
He made the promise to protect his Heera,
Never to let her suffer...was it a chimera?
He asked her to trust him over and over,
Pledge made, his jawline on her's went rover!
Finally he gave into his demanding desire,
to taste those lips that aroused his inner fire!
It was heaven when he first pressed a kiss,
He felt in paradise enveloped in a bliss!
He lingered more in his first act of passion,
He wanted to continue in that fashion!
But he wanted a peek to see how she felt,
He saw more tears and his heart then melt.
After the passionate stupor, mistrust grew,
reality dawned, her heart leapt and she knew,
What will happen to her heart? Her feelings?
Will she be shattered with Ustaad's dealings?
The mistrust and doubts crept crawling back,
half-hearted words uttered! He was taken aback!
She wanted to clarify but could not do so!
He cleared his point of view feeling very low!
He freed her from the marital corporal ties,
But she could not tell him where her heart lies!
He knew she was not wrong to think of him so,
He has not been a true soul from the get-go!
Quickly he forgave her, letting go of his ire,
He can't remain angry on her, even if he so desire!
He pledged not to be carried away again,
by temptations, till her trust is regained.
When she accepts her marriage and him,
he will fancy in his desire and his whim!
Till then he sets his way apart from her,
the third point was to be away and afar!
On business, he leaves her in pain and tears,
She longs, he longs but none of them hears!
After high comes the low, everyone knows,
Readers are floating on air and it shows!



LANA MY GOD!!! I JUST THOUGHT I WILL REQUEST YOU FOR AN OS AROUND THIS AMAZING CHAPTER, BUT I MUST SAY, THIS WAS A COMPLETE SURPRISE


THIS IS BEYOND AMAZING 👏⭐️
