Selvi - Even though you are quiet(er) the pictures are vibrant as ever

Lana - Superb lines 👏

To be in element with oneself on a beautiful spring day

Under the white blossoms on the green carpet we will lay

Watching the cool water display reflections of the trees

Wrapped in nature's glory relishing the sweet breeze

Thank you! But the review can only be good if the actual story is good. And your updates are not just good, they are fabulous!

Vathsy I replied on page 1😳

Rec'd message from Bond yesterday... Apparently, she read it chup chupke in train while traveling... She's on the way to Chennai and said Chennai reminds her of me/Sandy/Selvi !

Chapter 44.

Alright' came Ibrahim's long and slow murmur from the other side - making it obvious that his mind was still racing through the possibilities that might've caused this abrupt 'change of plan'.

'But I wonder how and when the heart of an adventurer recognised its companion in a partially blind lady... who couldn't ride at day... or even walk by herself at night, in the open? When did you realise you'd met your match?'

'Maybe I must let YOU answer first, my Begum?' his eyes played around with hers.

I HAVE NO WORDS TO DESCRIBE HOW BEAUTIFUL THE EXPERIENCE WAS

OR HOW SPECIAL IT WAS

OR HOW MUCH I LOVED IT

Omigosh thank you Lavanya!🤗

TO TRY AND PUT IT INTO WORDS, WOULD MEAN TRYING TO -

DEFINE AN ETHREAL FORMLESS OCEAN

QUANTIFY THE EFFECT IT HAS HAD

LIMIT ITS WAFTING FRAGRANCE

Hai hai Lavanya... how sweet... how charming... and a novel way to put forth your feelings

FOR ME THERE WAS NO BEGINNING, AND THERE WAS NO END

IT WAS LIMITLESS, ALL ENCOMPASSING, INCOMPREHENSIBLE...AND SUBLIME

IT CAN TUG AT THE MOST NON BELIEVING OF HEARTS, MAKING THEM REALISE THE BEAUTY OF LOVE, AND THE WONDERS IT CAN DO

That's it... I am just keeping quiet and drifting in this ethereal sublime description that Lavanya has penned here!

TAKING A CUE FROM AUNTY'S RADHA KRISHNA PIC I WANT TO SHARE A COUPLE OF VERSES

MAN SE MAN KA MEL YEHI HAI, PREET AISE HI DIL MEIN PALE

RADHA NE JAB KRISHNA KO DEKHA, AANKHON MEIN SAU DEEP JALE

(This, indeed, is the meeting of two minds, and this is how love resides in hearts. When Radha could behold Krishna, her eyes lit up like a hundred lamps)

❤️ Are these yours?

PYAAS JO THHI TERE ADHARON PAR, WOHI PYAAS MERE DIL MEIN PALE

RADHA NE JAB KRISHNA KO DEKHA, DIL MEIN PREET KA KANWAL KHILE

(There was an undying thirst on your lips, and even my lips are parched. When Radha could behold Krishna, the lotus of love bloomed in her heart)

PREM KA RAAG CHHID GAYA MADHUR, TO KOI BHI DUKH NA DIL MEIN PALE

RADHA NE JAB KRISHNA KO DEKHA, SHABDON KO NAYANON KI BHAASHA MILE

(When the Raga of love unfolds, there is not a shred of despair remaining in the heart. When Radha could behold Krishna, the eyes became the language of the words)

🤗

THANKS LASHY DEAR FOR THIS WONDER!!!

Lashy - loved to see all your comments & feedback on pg 1. 🤗

It means a lot when you take time to do this.❤️

I have had no change to get a full re-read of C44 - only in bits & pieces. But as mentioned on the suda suda take once I have had a chance to come out of the trance I will write in detail. 😊

🤗

Heads turn or not trying to stop the scales always turning more to the right. 😆😆

Slim fit will not not fit me

>>> 😆 Achoo... ok hope you reach your goal!🤗

I am just thinking next morning when he will meet Mirza Sahib, what will AMK do? Knowing him he will not even venture much and Mirza Sahib too will just once ask 'Had a restful sleep?" or "Hope you had a good rest" and will just pat his shoulder and nothing else will be asked and AMK will simply say 'Yes" and will leave it at that!! Both asked, said and acknowledged in their own way without going into details!! 😆

>>> Shall we let Rose answer this?😉

Now if it was Azeez then it would have been a different matter! I wonder what he would have asked and how firmly AMK would have responded!! 🤣 ""Khan Sahid why did you change your decision all of a sudden yesterday, this is the first time ever"!! And AMK would be 'Hmmm, just decided." And Azeez would be "But why Khan Sahib?" And then the authoritative response and tone would put him in his place which also would be coated with a slight warning!! 😆 His one "Azeez!" and the prankster would be quiet but nevertheless with a tell tale smile!! 🤣

Azeez... but I am glad he wasn't around... not because I love the chap any less (he does know to get serious when he has to) but in this situation it would've taken away from the grim gravity poignancy of the scene... 😆🤔

Lashy, yes I am dazed like all others! In a state of euphoria! I want to comment on every sentence but when it comes to penning down something is holding me back! Not letting me get out of this state of delirious happiness, not letting me share my feelings, it is making me selfish to hold back my emotions only to myself to cherish, enjoy and experience!! I am with them in their union and want to stay there for eternity, first times are special and I want to linger in the moment of ecstasy, in the moment of uninhibited pleasure of two souls bonding together, to marvel in the passion and even after I feel blossomed I still feel the agony and pain of wanting more!! It is a weird dilemma Author Sahiba, you have put me into and I hope I will get out of it soon but till then I have no complaints to be in this state! 😃 Maybe once I get to the goofy mode I will write more!!

I can write loads to you without any holding back in WA but here I am feeling I will need time! 😆

And I feel the Katra lyrics here too, 'Pyaasi hoon main pyaasi rahene do' by Gulzar!! Sometimes being thirsty too evokes a pleasure of sorts and I want to remain and indulge in that pleasure of being thirsty! I don't want to quench it to relieve it, I want it to linger, to make me more thirsty till I literally break into quandary of emotions, unable to hold any longer!! I know I am not making sense!! 🤔 It is truly I stumbled upon a dream which has enveloped me heart, body and soul and now I don't want to come out of it! 'Sapne pe paaon par gaya tha, sapno mein rahene do...pyaasi hoon main pyaasi rahene do'!!!

See even after blossoming that pain is there!! 😃

And I feel the nagging feeling of its coming soon!! Lashy for my selfish sanity sake please from now on update only once a month!! That way I will stay with him for this whole year at least! I want to stretch it out now, my never ending love for him!! And in this chapter Heera was a strong contender too!! That says a lot to you, doesn't it? Finally my wish of her seeing his scars both physically and mentally came to life and she was every bit fantastic as was expected if not more!! 👍🏼 I will need many many more reads of this chapter to get out of the trance!!
