beautiful as ever! Thanks Aritha, although I have a splitting headache after working on this long update.
so the idea uve used in teh beginning is kind of a real life incident u got from michidespo, its very sad. Yes, I borrowed the story she narrated. Did not know how I would make the present past connection for this update.
well i know of this guy who left his wife very soon after he got married. all wondered wat mustve gone wrong. his in laws pleaded hm to accept his wife but he failed to do that. he didnt even give them a reason why! then after few months there were rumours around that he is actually impotent. he didnt want to get married in teh first place but his parents forced him to to save their family name. they didnt tthink of the poor girl! now i have no clue wat has happend to her! The poor girls are the victims in such cases.
in this update,
i was mostly looking forward for milind in this update but i loved prachi too. when she said that he made her feel like a tramp, it was really hurting. knowing the kind of person she is, understadable that she didnt lash out on him the next morning and just ingnored milind. Yes, she is not the type of girl who will question things. If she was so smart, why would Milind find it difficult to love her till now? However, it is this dumb innocence which will get to him..
milind has done the right thing by being honest and telling her about his dream girl, though he didnt reveal all of it, its still good enough that he told her that he had been in love with another person for 10 long years!
He revealed as much as she needed to know. It would be too painful for her to tell her that it was her sister that he was in love with. As long as it is some unknown woman, she would not feel threatened or guilty.
what i really loved is that he bought a new mangalsutra, that is just so adorable of him. that whole conversation is perfect opti. i went on saying aww aww awww😆my longest awww was when prachi wipes her tears coz he didnt llike crying women!!!!!😆😆Prachi even in her anger and agony is well aware of what Milind does not like!
prachi bak to being cute, so she thinks milidn married her coz her name is the same as his dream girl!!! I did say she is pretty dumb. hey if i were her i wudve thought the same too!!! how on earth cud she have thought about a mistaken identity factor being involved here!!! that was just totally unbelievably dumb of the poor guy!!!😆Yes, if a smartass can be as dumb as marry the wrong girl, why not his dumb wife? Maybe they are made for each other.
on the whole very emotional update opti.
loved it!!! especially the bottom half of it! thanks Aritha. that is the half I was not too happy about though.
now that milind has gotten himself time from prachi, lets see how wisely he makes use of it!!! Milind is quite wise. He has learnt his lesson.
finally,
👏Thanks again.

u didnt liek the bottom half??? to be honest, teh top half didnt get to me thaaaaat much. i didnt feel milind;s pain there. for some reason i felt it wasnt as smooth as ur other updates..... but then again i absolutely suck at writing so i thought i am in no place to comment about ur writing skills. i still think so.
but now that u mentioned that u didnt like the bottom half which i reallly liked, i felt liek saying it.
please dont mind.😔
thast what i felt wen i thought about how i felt for ur other FFs. it seemed a bit dry so wen u said that u werent happy with the update i thought u were talking about the first half!!!!
thats all.
im not talking about milind's thoughst, wat he thought is very much commendable and we all kinda know why he did that!!!!
so i am dumb too????
what other reason could she think about??? mistaken identity ??? thats too much for her head! wudve been too much for my head too if i were in the same situation!!! 😆 id give it a serious thought abt it later on...
why am i including myself here!!!! oh God keep me away from such shockers!!!!😆
anyways and on top of that prachi is hopelessly in love with her husband.
so id expect her to believe watever he says!!!!!! atleast in that point of time!!!!!t coz i belive its too shocking of a thing!!!
and the fact that he even told the truth of marrying her thinking her as being someone else is pretttty good.
i have a feeling she herself will find out that its ayesha!!! i cud be wrong

Hey Opti - rest your mind now- you have delivered an excellent update. The use of Farzanna's plight at the beginning, in the present day scenario, was a clever way of starting your flasback because not only did it manage to bring home the whole essence of the wrong and hurt via Ali's words but this was also a kind of tribute to women like Sumu's friends all over the world that have to quietly endure this type of abuse. Although in this FF this is definitely not what Milind is!! - even though it seems that Milind can never forgive himself for what he did once to the woman he loves more than ever. I'm glad that Milind did not confide in his friend Ali this time - this was certainly personal - and something he had to deal with on his own. Also luckily although he handled the scotch he didn't consume it - important that Milind thinks with a clear head. So Ali's advice was something that Milind took on board , while accepting that everything his friend had said was true - Prachi's feelings must be considered and he needs to let go of expecting her to be what she can never be. I liked the way you described how he was both happy and sad at seeing her happy due to his compliments. Also the description you gave of how Milind was totally immersed in his wife right upto the time where he let go was very well/carefully written and made so much sense - Milind had to let go, because he was being unfair to Prachi. It takes a great man to do what he did, he understood that here was a totally innocent beautiful creature offering herself to him giving away so much and yet he could not return that equally - very well written - Milind's emotions were seething with anguish, remorse, anger (at himself), guilt and confusion at this point. I think Milind felt exactly like we all did with regards to Prachi - realising that she has been hurt and that pain must be more than any woman can ever bare. So happy that Milind realised that the only solution was to talk directly and truthfully with Prachi. Loved the way that Prachi initially ignored him and then was sarcastic to him and then finally lashed out. Opti I especially liked the way you made Milind realise how much his act had wounded her, he was shocked how a sweet girl like her can change into someone that he cannot relate to - this kind of shows that he has accepted and cares for her exactly the way she is - even though he may not have acknowledged this in his mind yet. The part where he realises that because of him Prachi is questioning her own behaviour really showed how truly bad he feels and cares for Prachi.
So it looks like the the merger may be going ahead in two weeks - a good parallel with his own marriage.
I loved that Milind gave Prachi the ultimatum of either accepting him and giving him time or competely giving up on the whole thing. I think I agree with Prachi's answer - she knows him well enough to know that he is a man of integrity and loyalty, he will do what he says, she says she has confidence in her love - I beleive her, she has more to gain by accepting the mangulsutra, and more importantly Milind has everything to lose if she doesn't, and I think she knows that even if he doesn't - that is the power of her love. He knows there is absolutely no reason for him to not rise to her love - as he said so beautifully, no reason for him to reject her whatsoever - so things can only get better. Opti I realise that by bringing in Ayesha's name at this point was pointless and will make matters worse and complicated - but I still really feel that Prachi should know this at some point so that they will have nothing to ever hide from each other. A beautifully and thoughtfully written update - wonderful!!

Opti nice update.
the part which took the cake is...Prachi intelligence in figuring out why Milind got married to her.....👏....now i understood why Inder got Milind as his damaad....as his nadaan ladkhi thinking power is so great...only milind can handle it and no other guy....
One thing Milind did was rightis he dint knock Ali room ....and told him what he had did...if he would told...Ali instead of speaking warmly with prachi would have spoke with her sympatheticaly which might have killed her further.
Milind ...did used his Wound for a good purpose....on the whole he made prachi lisen to him...wah..kya ground work kiya....daag dene padegi uski sooch per....at the end he did made prachi to prompt herself she wanted to stay in this marriage.....👏.
Gobi kya kub lagaya prachi ki kaano per...i am impressed....he did tell her the truth...but i dont know how will be prachi reaction when she comes to know who the girl was....i dont think she will take it seriously...
Okay to the point ....so hero want to raise as he fell till now in his 10 yrs of love...
so what ground work he does...let me think.....
😍......prachi going for shopping i mean vegetable shopping....so Milind will be comming from office...so he sees this girl and thinks...woh who is this girl...she looks pretty and he sees and smiles at him the girl blushes....so he follows her and thinks he have to find the girls address.....but suddenly one fine morning this girl applies for job in his hotel in housing department...and then hero will be so happy that he can talk with her....and in the mean time he will realise it is none other than his wife prachi ...and realise he is raising in love with prachi.
I tell you seeing thsi weried things Nandu Kaka will land in Mental assylum....
opti how will he fall in love.....what else prachi have to do to make him fall in love....as even though he falls in love this duffer hinks...he is just attracted.....
Nice update Opti...really nice one..u really put forth the story very very well.
👏

opti, this is the first time ever in any of your ffs that i feel angry and let down by milind. he's being selfish, ignorant and insensitive.
if he had met a real marraige counsellor instead of talking to ali, even if he had bothered to read john gray's men are from mars and women are from venus, he'd have known that s*x is the way to a man's heart. that is why couples in arranged marraiges do it on the first night. when there is no love. only lust. sorry to sound crude, but once a man gets in, there is no way for him to get out.
all this intellectualising and theorizing about love is the woman's forte. i don't think a normal man, who knows his wife loves him, who's already made a life time comittment to her, who is so physically attracted to her could push her away when she's so longing to be with him.
the guy does need some kind of professional counselling. if he did, he'd know that for a guy, the act comes first then the feelings. for the woman, the feelings and then the act.
in ancient hindu texts it is considered a sin to not fulfill a wife who longs for you. the guy is lucky to have someone as patient and loving as prachi. he better pay back big time.
