Somu what an episode and what a lovely post. 👏What I loved most was your title again. Because that walk of his just stays with you.
Sona had tried building a wall of anger around her heart so that she will not crumble and run back into his arms. But yesterday after their talk after she saw the state of Dev there was no more walls to protect her bleeding heart anymore. She knew it then n there itself n that is why she asked him the promise to say no even if she becomes weak.
[DIV]Dev is trying to hold himself by thread. He knows his Sona is still only his. But they can't be together. He was willing to take this pain for his mother. But her betrayal have shaken him to the core. He was not even able to breath before he confronted his mother. Him looking back at the house, the home that he gifted to his mother, the sense of betrayal; it was as if each stone of that house was mocking him. The way he went back and asked, Ishwari knew then and there that her game was up. Even then she wanted reassurance that there is nothing between Dev n Sona. Her reasoning all went over his head. Because both of them knew. She tried to use the same strategy she used with Sona's father. Work ethics;of falling in love with her boss. But seeing Dev's expression immediately changed. Her talk on going out of her belief to accept Sona for Dev's happiness sounded hollow even to her and she correctly read that again on his face. Then was the master stroke. She made him responsible for betraying Sona. So she just took care of Sona's happiness for him.
When he pulled her back saying may be she was not at fault he must have been drowning in guilt for what he did to Sona n to their love. He was even unable to hug her because Sona's words that he doesn't have any more importance in her life was screaming in his head. The irony of it. The one for whom he removed a part of himself doesn't even acknowledge it.
The way he turned and walked I would say that was the end of the child in Dev Dixit. He is completely shattered. It wouldn't take much to tilt his scale to complete insanity. I just hope Sona will be able to hold him back before all is lost. Because Ishwari have messed up big time. She can't stop him from spiralling out of control. Only Sona can.
