Beautifully written as always. Awaiting the AshNi conversation. Hope you don't keep us waiting to long for that. Also love the maturity and the understanding between AshNi. Now wishing that I find my Ashman soon😉

Misssh the much promised review ... sorry for delay sweetie...

Hehe mish here am back with my review part 9 very close to my heart... i just love every feeling that it evokes. The much awaited meeting, the face a face is here. The part also allows for the pent up feelings to come out loud and clear.

Hmm one could almost argue that ashu agreeing to the talk is kimet at work... so it seems as we watch the story unfold. The easy banter between A and M serves a good purpose as preparing the audience and Ashu about what's gone happen.

And then the voice... what Ashu had been longing and dreading...just when he thought he was safe nids comes in. The way you present it nice... you can almost feel the tension for him and the shock for her. Mathew serves as a good buffer here... both are fighting for composure in their own way and Doc Matthew here business as usual introducing and praising,

This post-lunch bhi meri duty nahin hai. Hints that there is more in store for these two and now there will be time for letting feelings out.

Nice build up of the tension as they go to the restaurant... his "I am sorry" is bound to elicit a myriad of feelings... sorry what for... for coming here... not telling her... when finally all starts coming out the confusion of ashu is endearing to me... he is so helpless here [MB would have been brilliant here... ]

"Nidhi please!" Ashutosh pleaded with her. He had no answers to her questions.

This continues to build things up... he is so clueless about it all... i feel it is a mixture of not knowing and fearing... fearing that he might break if he speaks and as we know its just delaying the moment.

The joke about pay hike is just to bring calm before the tempest i should say. And wow i would say that tempest sure unleashed all the feelings...

"Mujhse bahut naaraaz ho Nidhi?" Ashutosh asked her after they reached her home.

"Aapse naraaz ho kar kissi ka kya kar loongi main," Nidhi replied sadly.

"I want you to move on Nidhi. I want you to be happy."

Tears came to Nidhi's eyes when he said that.

"Nidhi..."

"Dr. Ashutosh. Duniya mein do log hain jinse main bahut pyaar karti hoon. Aur itni khushkismat hoon ki won do log bhi mujhse bahut pyaar karte hain. Hamesha meri bhalai ki sochte hain. Lekin phir bhi - woh dono jo karte hain, usse main khush rahne ke jagah hurt hi ho jati hoon. Unke intention mein to koi burai nahin hai. Main unse shikayat nahin kar sakti. To mujhme hi kuchh galat hoga na? Mujhme hi koi kami hogi ki mere aas paas itna pyaar hote hue bhi main khush nahin hoon. Bataiye na Dr. Ashutosh? Kya galat hai mujhme? Baba bhi meri bhalai chahte hain, aap bhi. Lekin phir bhi main khush kyon nahin hoon?" Tears were flowing out of her eyes staining her cheeks.

You have to be insensitive not to have some kind of display of emotions here... this is superbly executed... all since the start was gone lead to that face. a face. One feels for both here... now in the privacy of her home the masks can come down. Reminded me of the previous part.. when she comes in his office. The break down had to happened... she has been strong so far... but seeing him and my guess the fact that he did not tell he was coming broke her down...one hand her love the other baba and his wish to see her married. When you look at things from her sight one can say that he has been selfish...in his bid to protect her he is hurting her more.

Her outburst has been the protective dam she had built being shattered... she has reached the end and does not know what to do. As much as we feel for nids Ashu is not far behind... his fears are combined with guilt and this time clearly not because of society ya baba but simply because by his actions he has ignored her feelings...

Nidhi here is unstoppable... the damn has broken and she out to reveal all... you feel her frustration but more her pain... almost she questions why should she have to suffer when all that she wants is for the men of her life to allow her to be.

Nids comments about him cutting the phone are simply mindblowing... she lets it all go... her pain is beautifully expressed.

This explosion was a much needed happening for the events to go forward and gooosh i wish they could have shown sth smilar in KTLK before MB left. Why was it needed simply because ashu needed that eye opener.. and maaan the new Ashu is so yummy... he clearly now is ready to assume his part in the relationship...his demeanour and actions clearly show that now he will be in control... nids need not be on the lookout for him, he will protect her, care for her now.

The way he discovers how something is wrong very nicely executed. In a way he has shed his inhibitions and now is having a good look at her.

"Nidhi! Hum dono doctors hain. Cut that crap."

Ohhh love the tone of authority... starting to hint at change... she does not have to hide. I could visualise the whole thing. Love the way you make her reveal whats wrong... the shyness is just awww and from then you see the other ashu starting to emerge more.He takes control and is not gone let go till her knows

You have noticed the progression perfectly. Ashutosh has been confused, indecisive. He pleads to her to not ask questions, because he doesn't know how to answer them. He has a notion of what is the right thing to do. Yet, he isn't quite doing that. He isn't going on the other side either. He feels that his happiness and hers are on two different sides. The temptation of his own happiness is too strong to completely turn away from. Yet he is trying. Result - he is all messed up. And finally when he sees Nidhi's pain, he realizes that his idea of what was right for her was wrong. If it was aimed at Nidhi's happiness, at keeping her life uncomplicated, he had failed miserably. His happiness lied on the other side and his own too. Then there is nothing to be confused about. Keeping her happy and keeping himself happy are one and the same thing. That helplessness sorted out, he turns into the confident, mature man he otherwise is.

"You fool. Can't you see it is not normal, then?

You fool!!!! Anger as a means to hide his feelings... at the same time there is the undertone of disbelief how could she have been careless.

Absolutely loves the way he takes control... calms her fears, cancelling the ticket another hint that now he will be there for her...

"I hate you for doing this Nidhi. Tumne mujhse waada kiya tha ki tum apni health ka khayaal rakhogi.

Goosebumps moment... anger... fear... frustration all enfolded in one sentence... The confirmation of the diagnosis is well developed... ashu knows he has to be strong and for that he gets back in the doctor mode. Loves the way he takes control of things now.

Continuation of the same thing. Now that his confusion is sorted out, he has no hesitation in treating her like someone who belongs to him and who is answerable to him for not taking care of herself. And also he now has not only the duty, but the right of taking care of her. He claims it!

Part 11

I think my Rehman analogy applies here as well. The confirmation of the tumour quickens the confrontation between past and present... past being baba and present being ashu now.

One feels for nids when she calls out for ashu, and more than anything we have to appreciate anji's logic here, she has finally seen beneath the mask and realises the pain that nids is having is not just related to tumour but her longing for ashu aswell.

Your Shyama is the exact copy for the serial wala... i like both for their ability to see things as they are.

The tete a tete ASHNI is simply awww... am seriously not getting the English translation but there is something in French that goes "force tranquille" i guess that would be tranquil force!!! And that is what ashu is now... he is here for her... you have to love the way he reads her right... and sets about to soothe her.

"Quiet strength" is how Google translates it and from the context I guess it is the correct translation. 😳

The outside scene is interesting as well... shyama applying her logic is good...giving them the time they need and i like Anji as well here very much assured.

I really like the face a face baba ashu... there might have been differences but they are here for the one same person and am glad that baba accepts his presence with out over reacting . The confidence of ashu is nicely depicted as he answers things in a direct way.

Yeah. This was something I really did very consciously. Baba doesn't think badly of Ashutosh. In fact he has been quite fond of him. He had accepted that in front of Nidhi. He just isn't in favour of Nidhi's relationship with him because of the age-gap. He has seen that Ashutosh had respected his concerns and had distanced himself from Nidhi because of that. So, Baba will never be unreasonable with Ashutosh and behave disrespectfully in front of him. Baba, himself, is a graceful and rational character. Not like the crass, mindless characters Indian TV often produces. Plus from Anji and Shayama's convo, he realizes what Ashutosh still means for Nidhi. And how he has been there for her when she needed him. And when Ashutosh reveals that he brought NIdhi for the check-up, sub-consciously he becomes indebted to him as well. Not to forget, Baba is the man who had fainted when Nidhi was to be given an injection. He is clearly a very broken and scared man right now. And Ashutosh extends his support gracefully. He takes it.

The doctor's shocker... once again here kudos for your ashu. He wonderfully assumes the role of the comforter/doctor and keeps his feelings under wraps.

Such an aww scene when he brings tea... that shows yet another facet of the new ashu.. he has come to terms with his feelings and his actions show it he is here not just for nids but her family as well.

😊 Yeah. Ashutosh has accepted his place in her life. He still doesn't know if Baba will agree. But he knows that there is no pushing her away from him. So, he unabashedly assumes the duties of a son-in-law. 😳

OHHH i love ashu Anji convo.

"Kya mere jawaab se koi farq padega?"

He might have come to terms wid his and nids equation but our good doc is weary of the world.and this shows here.

Yep - the exact interpretation!

And now I am greedy too 😛 Looking forward to the review of the next part too. 😆

Hi,

Commenting after long time. I was not on the forum very much.. Just finished reading all the chapters till now.

As usual, your narration is good.. I liked the way Ashu and Nidhi tried to leave each other but cold not do..

But, personally I feel because of Nidhi's pregnancy issue, the great love they share may look like marriage of convience... I guess that is what you will be tackling in the next chapters.

Fantastic...👏

Ashu and Nidhi r truly made for each other...

Happy that Baba relented and also that Anji told Ashu abt Nidhi's insecurities.

Ashu too admitting that he should have tried harder to convince Baba was so aww...

Shifting to Delhi to be with her and all that matters to them is each other's happiness...beautiful , true LOVE !

Waiting for the happy conclusion !!
