This was so so beautiful...u have written it so well and depicted their emotions very nicely...I really loved it...waiting to read more...this is how things should have happened in the show...

Suvika, I seriously hoped I was watching this on screen. There are so much SINCERE emotions in your writing that it's more vivid for me than what's going on screen. After so much water under the bridge where in one scene Sona is claiming that Dev has no personality, how could she jump into his arms in next scene?

On a serious note this chapter deserves a special review... and before you ask me for one here it is.

"You know me very well, don't you?"

"I thought I did."

This was required.. The ruefulness of the situation, the trust is gone from both their sides. He left her, she was ready to. The hesitant start to their relationship.. 👏

"Yeah. I have forwarded the details to my HR guys. They'll take care of everything." Sona nodded and left it at that. "Sonakshi?"

Glad there was only a mention of the professional relationship. No detailing required here.

One hurdle and you dropped my hand like a hot potato. Like a useless piece of furniture."

This is what Sona is asking, we are all asking. How did he just drop her in a split second break up with her?

"It had to be done that way or I would never have been able to do it. You were right when you said, yeh sirf aapka pyaar nahi hain. But it had to be done that way. In your medical language, like a band-aid being ripped out.

You and I have agreed on this and discussed this so many times. The forum was up in arms why Dev broke up this way and we know he is not strong enough to do it any other way.

Maybe because of the different cultures. Maybe because of the food habits.

So clueless as to why Mom didn't like... Are we going to see that awareness coming soon?

But that night I realized she would rather end her life than live with my choice."

The line from Dev's Letter's OS sneaked its way back I see.

"But my mother was on her deathbed. To grab her and get her back, I needed both my hands and in that process I had to let go of your hand. I traded off my heart for her life.

Dev did what he did as his mom was on the deathbed. I always wondered when people questioned why is he not fighting for his love. He can fight his mom if she is also fighting with him. To fight he needs an opponent. But the minute his mother gave up her wishes, her thoughts, her life who does he fight and how? Seeing a parent on the death bed... its no time for choices and I see that you got Sona to see that and agree to it.

"You'd said, humaara break up hochuka hain Mr Dixit. Aap jab chaahe aise call nahi karsakte. That...that was when it hit me. That was when it hit me what break up actually is going to entail.

You mentioned this then... as soon as you saw the episode that now it hit him what a break up means. The guy who broke up with Sona was Ishwari's son... but it broke Dev Dixit instead.

Who was I fooling? I cannot live without you. So I became that horrid stalker you'd accused me of being.

Dev is now not going to promise anything. He is going to let his actions speak... When he fell in love he spoke of the stars the sun and moon.. and he now realizes that he cannot simply talk. Even during the proposal he didn't promise her anything. This entire conversation he didn't promise her anything. In that sense this line is significant as it states his condition. "I cannot live without you" The only line to indicate his current situation. Simple and straight.

All I can ask is to believe me. Say you trust me."

Finally why you started writing the OS in the first place. Like I said love was never a question between the two. When Sona said to him I don't believe you. It hit Dev harder than anything else. All he wants is for Sona to believe him and trust him and if he has that he can face anything.

I loved Sona didn't agree right away. The day she ran out of her engagement she kind of lost that right. So conferring with her family before saying anything makes sense.

With a tortured whisper of Sona, he grabbed her arm, pulled her back and hugged her. Hugged her so tight to himself. Like he wanted to glue himself to her.

The hardest thing for Dev to do was to see Sona walk away. He broke down.. the image of Dev crying can never be wiped out of our minds.

If she didn't agree after this, she never would... So in that sense this was potentially the last time he was seeing her. Him reacting like that, to cling on to her one last time was so required... 👏👏 Fabulous.

Taking a step back and then another one, he whirled and strode back to his car, leaving her standing at her door,

I am glad for 2 things here. He did not tell her Bijoy agreed. He didn't try to emotionally pressurize her. Like the day of the proposal he said what he needed to say and took a step back.. In response Sona asked to be hugged.. Here also we shall see Sona's response in a simple hug ( The next day though) but that will convey everything.

Bijoy's frown deepened. Anger surged forth. "Did he misbehave with you Shona? Tell me the truth."

All parents are insecure when it comes to their kids and yet how they deal with it is important. The minute Bijoy sees Sona crying his first instinct is to protect her from Dev...

She couldn't stay angry at Dev anymore. It had gone down the day he had come and apologized to her parents. It went down another step when he made amends to Ritwik. And today...when he'd talked to her, the way he'd laid bare his heart, the grudge, the disappointment, the pain...all melted like ice on a hot pan. And when he hugged her, why hadn't she pushed him away? Why did she feel like hugging him back and crying her heart out? Why did she feel like pleading with him to never let go? Why? She still couldn't trust him, could she? Would she? Was she ready to trust him again? Did she want her second chance with him? He was her only chance at love and true happiness. Was she ready to let go of her fear and grab it...him, with both her hands and trust him not to let her go again?

The transition through the various incidents... why they were all required, how they tied up to the story this para is the best example of that. She must have also noticed him take a step back so she is not impacted professionally when he didn't initially come to her presentation.. I am guessing she did, you just forgot to mention it here.

Bijoy came back and gave her Dev's letter.

Finally the letter... it has reached the person it was intended for. Strange it's intended purpose was to severe all ties and yet here the letter was instrumental in strengthening the bond between Dev and Sona..

Kudos!!

It doesn't matter whose family it is. Family is family. And he knows that.

The entire accident incident was drafted to ensure Bijoy sees this. Sees Dev as a savvy businessman. Not just as a loser, a mumma's boy, a drunkard. To see the Man Sona fell in love with, to remind Sona of the man she fell in love with... So glad Bijoy's concerns were addressed.

Finally no emotional blackmail here either... No "You have to agree." .. Complete choice... Do what you want and we support you in the decision to be or not to be with Dev... Bijoy understands it is for Sona to trust him again not for them as parents to force her.

****

"In this rain? Are you kidding? Message me his number. I'll talk to him and then come and pick you up. You stay put until I get there, you hear me?"

Haq hai mera... that's how he is going to be. She doesn't say a yes.. But she spoke to him and he will always be protective of her.

Kharapa na, Bijoy thought to himself with a smile. Not bad. "Are you sure?" he asked, nevertheless.

Touchdown... Bijoy has completely accepted Dev here.

"You stop worrying about my car seat and jacket and focus on warming up.

Reminded me of the Driving lesson... :) 😆😆

Dev took one step back into the rain when his arm was held and pulled. He turned and found Sonakshi in his arms. His Sona. In his arms. Hugging him.

The response to taking the step back... " Mr. Dixit aap mujhe hug karenge please" She needed to ask then... Now he was equally hers as she was his. They truly complete each other.

"Did you just...why did you...are you..." he gave up. "Don't go. Please," he finally whispered.

He is so scared to interpret what he thinks could be.. He needs the assurance so much...

"Don't let me go. Please," she said just as softly.

Awww

When a rough exclamation, he dragged her back into his arms. "Never again Sona. Never again." He pulled back, cupped her face, scattering kisses all over her face. Forehead, eyes, cheeks, chin, lips. "Never Sona," he repeated with every desperate kiss. "Never again," he asserted.

CVs... yeh hota hai passion... yeh...

The wild tempest of need for reassurance slowly subsided. Leaving behind a tranquil glow of contentment. Two broken pieces once again forming a whole. "Thank you Sonakshi," he whispered.

"I love you Dev," she whispered back. "I love you so much!"

****

I want to run to them , huddle with them and say... aww... I love you three...

Fresh out of shower, clean shaved, hair-trimmed and neatly brushed, every inch the savvy entrepreneur ready to start his day and take on the world.

Extra credit for this!!

So true.. he is so not going to believe his luck. Believe last night was real.

Our Dev is back.. Reminded me of the Dev who rushed to see if Sona was okay when she typed an "H"... ab tho.. he will grow wings and fly to her.

"Arre Dev beta, breakfast is ready," Ishwari called out from the dining area.

He quickly walked up to his maa and bent down to take her blessings. "Not now maa. I'm off to Sonakshi's house. I'll eat something there."

Ishwari stood there, stunned, staring at her son's departing figure. Sonakshi's house? Without having the breakfast cooked by your maa?

Lets deal with her in the next part . Me not saying anything here.

****

Asha opened the door. "Arre Dev Babu, aap?"

He looked awkward for a second but plunged ahead. "Ji. Elina said Sonakshi has been running temperature. I just thought..."

Asha smiled and stepped aside in welcome. "Please come inside. Sona is upstairs in her room. This way," she gestured him towards the stairs. She smiled affectionately.

Yes.. lets get him to call them Maa and Baba... The comfort level is already there.. she is letting a guy in her daughter's room...

Shedding the last of his hesitancy, he grinned back at Asha and took the stairs that would take him to his Sona's room.

"Good morning my Jungli Billi!" he greeted.

Ms. Khargosh ab Jungli Billi ban chuki hai!! Super Duper Update...

Don't you dare expect me to write such reviews for each OS that you write.. It was tough writing this review and I can imagine how emotionally draining writing the OS would be and you deserve it... Awesome Job dude... Now you know why I kept saying write this OS!!

Suvi please accept this tight hug from me please.🤗
