Sona...kyon khud ko aur Dev itna takleef diya...Ye hamko bardaash nahi ho raha hai...aap chahtha hai na, har baar ki tarah Dev aapko manao...hug karo...ek pyaar bhari chappi se aapko heal karo, jaisa vo Shimla mein kiya...magar, is baar vo aisa kuch nahi karnewaala hai...kyunki, (aapki baathoon mein bolega tho) usko lagtha hai ki vo aapki tha hi nahin...varna jo aadmi aapko pyaar karne se pehle hi aapka itna khayaal kartha tha, aapka dilaasa detha tha...uskeliye bahut mushkil he aapse aisa barthaav karna...aise karne mein aapne use majboor kiya...isaliye vo aapko I hate you bola...kyunki shimla night mein vo bol diya tha, aapka thakleef unka bhi thakleef hai.
Wanted to remind Sona why this time Dev is not going to win her back, until she proves to him that she trusts his love. Rewinding back the scenes in S1, we can see everytime Sona was down or Sona tried to distance her from him (whether he knew or not that he was the reason), it was Dev who always went to her. Sona ko yaad dilaane ke liye, me vo sab ek ek karke idhar list kartha hoon.
1. After Sona realises that she is in love with Dev, she couldn't use the opportunity she got to convey her feelings to Dev and then Natasha enters. And on the day Natasha & Gujraal visits IN, Dev comes to know Sonakshi left early as she was not feeling well. He visits her...makes her feel good and even prepares sandwiches for them...thus supports her emotionally & physically.
2. Again on his engagement day, Sona calls Ishwari to inform that she was not well, trying to escape from seeing Dev becoming Natasha's...Hearing it, Dev again turns up at Bose house; spends some time with her & try to know more about her desires, getting delayed for his most important meeting with Gujral. He just could have enquired about her health over the phone; but yet he felt to come in person...aakhir ye donom soulmates he na...isaliye aana tho padega...š
3. This is the most important day. When Sona, who was always seen as a bold person, spent the time crying over her loss, there Dev realises his love for Sona and even before he confirms it with Sona, informs Natasha about the same and goes to confess his love to Sona.
4. After their first fight w.r.to Neha-Ranveer relation, Sona leaves without informing anyone and when Dev comes to know about it, goes to Bose house and wait for Sona in the rain till she comes out to meet him.
5. After the first breakup, Sona ne fight nahin kiya Dev ke liye...jaldi haar maan liya and for the family's sake agreed to move on with Rithwik...Again it was Dev who stalked her and finally on the day of her engagement, broke down & collapsed...If Dev was strong enough to pass that phase, Sona for sure would have got engaged to Rithwik that day...So, again it was Dev who subconsciously fought for their love that day.
6. Next day again, after getting Ishwari's approval, Dev comes to her, to be insulted by Sona and sent back. For what all Sona told Dev that day, I ššš her, because it was a much needed dose for Dev. I was just mentioning this incident as another one where Dev came back to her. And after this attempt Dev decided not to force her anymore. So, if it were not for Ishwari's and Asha's interference Sona would not have agreed to marry Dev.
7. Marriage happens...that night again Sona turns her back to Dev. Next day, it is again Dev who first say sorry to her.
8. After Saurav returns the car to Ishwari, again there is an argument between them and Dev goes to office. Sona talks to Dev'a photo, but never thinks of giving a call to Dev and gets busy with bua maa & Ishwari. Later again, it is Dev who initiates the sorry talk, once he comes back from office.
9. Two days later, the big fight happens between them on why Sona needed to fast and Sona insults him telling he was so desperate for physical intimacy. I can tell you, this is the biggest insult any man would tolerate and for a person like Dev who had never seen Sona with such eyes, it was like maligning his love for her. What happened next...On Ishwari's advice, Sona leaves for her mayka, without informing Dev. There again Dev reaches Bose house to get her back.
10. Again, after the fight on Vicky's posting in the office, Dev was really hurt that Sona didn't try to understand him and that hurt tuned way to severe anger when whole day he was expecting Sona to call and she didn't call. On top of it, not seeing her at the dining table, got him crazy. I agree Sona came down in search of him and tried to have a friendly talk...But, again lost the point on why Dev was angry. With all the above incidents that had happened previously, Sona by this time should have understood that this time Dev was really hurt and that is why the person who was always the first to feel sorry and say so, was distancing himself from her. But no, there also her ego was important.
11. Later on Neha's divorce issue, they have an argument and again on Ishwari's advice leaves for Bhaidooj, informing Dev with that outsider note. Again, next day Dev reaches Bose house; manaofy her and brings her back.
12. Again, when Sona comes to know that she is not pregnant, she warns Dev not to touch her as he is a stranger to her. (I know Dev can't be excused here). But, what I wanted to say is that, against to Sona's warning Dev hugged her saying he couldn't see her going away from him and behaved the same way he behaved on the day Sona's engagement with Rithwik got cancelled. And with that one hug, he could pacify Sona a little bit.
13. Then comes the Shimla night...During their first argument that day, Dev already had told her to share her griefs and hurts, so that he could help her out. He had always seen a strong Sona and he couldn't understand what made her so weak and insecure. Sona somewhat cools down. But again gets provoked on Ishwari's interference and leaves the place. Minutes before Sona had agreed to Dev to go with Ishwari's arrangements, as she said, as long as Dev was with her she is not bothered about anything else. So, how could Dev infer what was bothering Sona this much. This leads to a fight and again as usual, Sona starts packing the bag to leave, trying to escape from the problem. There again Dev takes the charge first by questioning her and then later healing her with his care & touch from head to toe.
14. Finally, the slapgate incident happens. Wasn't all the above 13 incidents enough for Sona to understand Dev as a human being and his love for her. Even after the slapgate incident, Dev was ready to do anything for Bijoy's forgiveness; He even called Sona that night to know what should be done. But Sona only told him that she will manage. So he waited for her 2-3days and after getting no positive reply from her, he still went to Bijoy asking forgiveness and in return got insulted. Isse zyaada Dev kya karna chaahiye tha?
Dev believed that Sona was his breathing air, which leaves a person only when he dies. Even without any support from his mother and wife, he tried his best to balance everything in the way he felt was right. As someone has pointed out, His intentions was right; but his ways was wrong. But, Sona the perfectionist, always focused on his weaknesses; not on his strengths. And the irony is that she never realized that it was because of this weak nature that everytime he came back to her. But, this time no. Dev is not going to be an intruder in Sona's life any more. He acknowledges all his faults subconsciously; but he is not going to acknowledge it to Sona until he get convinced that Sona wants him for herself.
