WITHOUT FAIL, NAINZ! TEARS!!!

I actually had to stop reading like two paragraphs from the end and take a break to ride out the feels for a minute. Then I came right back to finish. That postscript at the end definitely gives it a much needed hopeful note! Thanks for including it. Now I can grin about Abhi's repainting plans rather than wondering what Peter Pan escapist impulse made him think he was going to follow up with them.

Love the mood overall, and I actually really enjoyed returning to this time in the show even though it was a context of wall to wall angst. With Pragya pulling away just when Abhi was realizing his attachment to her, there was so much that could have been explored if the show focused on her needs and inner feelings more than her plans to help Abhi. Thank you for giving us that. Another power-packed dose of Pragya-centric awesomeness as only you can write - thank you Nainz!!!!

PS also the way you described Prags noticing Abhi when she got back to the room, somehow it gave me that same visceral "godamn how is he so hot" heartburn that certain fleeting glimpses of Shabz do. Very cool to achieve that with words!

Res... Will be back

Not ending it JD! Just taking a break after the next OS for a while, because all of these OSes were written monthss ago. I just was lazy to post them up (and revised them a lot). After the next one, I have nothing saved up, so will take a hiatus!

Will be waiting on the unres 😳

Thanks Minama! Yayy, I got tears once again, I'm on a hattrick! (Or is it more than a hattrick now?)

I put that postscript especially for myself 😆 because I didn't know how to add in the part where I'm upset with him on the show of how he never broke up with Tanu before proposing to Pragya. And I'd like to talk about Tanu as less as possible in the OSes, so it jus became a postscript. Glad you liked it! It was the only way I'd have approved of Abhi last summer.

Couldnt decide whether Abhi should wear a black tee or a white button up one! I spent an hour trying to figure out which ones more dreamier!

Thanks again Minama for commenting and appreciating the diary, really means a lot! ❤️

LOL! You know what Nadzo, I'm surprised you noticed and mentioned that. And I'm so glad you did! Because this OS was longer and the ending was originally different when I wrote it months ago. The ending was originally that she remembers how he's having a baby with T and how he's rejected her many times in the past, and she breaks the hug/dance, much to his disappointment and says its time to go home. So the ending was originally sad.

But since the time I wrote this, lots of things changed in the show. Esp my opinion of Abhi's love for her, after the grand finale of the previous track. Though I'm still upset with him on a lot of issues in the past track, I definitely fell for him in the past two weeks. And I didn't want to show Abhi as clueless as he originally was in this OS. So I chopped out a lot from the ending, changed a lot of their conversation and ended it on the dance, to keep the tone hopeful between them. Where he's scared but trying to win her back. Where she feels like he likes her, but is too scared to ask. And yet, theres this hope that maybe things aren't over between them.

I used to write lots of diaries about my own life. Now looking back at them, I noticed how there was never a good closure to my entries...it just ended on a random note. Because struggles in life dont get fixed in a single entry...it takes time and maybe a different entry might be written about how things got solved. Thats why most of these OSes end very abruptly, I guess.

Hopefully that made sense? Can't wait to know more of your thoughts! (On all of the OSes that are still reserved! 😳)

Unres'd on the previous page 😊

A very random statement but felt like telling. Your diaries make me want to write diaries of my own life. Reading diaries is interesting. May be it's because of how you write them.

There are certain rare moments in my life be it sad or happy, where I dont know what happened to me. However hard I try to recollect, my mind would believe it to be a dream. I never thought that reading something would make me feel like that.

As I came half way through the OS, I was like what will be the end as it was going on and on. Usually if I feel so, I will scroll through to the end to see how much is remaining. But I didn't want to break the flow this time and then there was the end before I sense it .

It was a very beautiful OS and it has found a special place in my heart. Even if I read this again and again, I wont be able to quote my favourite lines. I felt like I was sitting at the beach somewhere far away and watching them. I am a bit dazed with this OS.

The beauty of your stories is that if one tries to tell the plot in a line, it will look so simple and plain. But your words and the way you potray the emorions give life to the story.

Thank you for writing this 🤗

P.S. If you ever write a book, I would be the one to buy the first 100 copies. 😳

I read this comment first thing in the morning and I'm still not sure how to respond Nivz. LITERALLY BLUSHING! I'm so glad you enjoyed it and thank you for sharing the sweetest feedback ever! Someone liking what I wrote, esp when they themselves are truly gifted in the writing department, is a definite honor!

About wanting to write your own diaries, do it! And then when you've collected diaries full of your thoughts, its fun going back and reading them and realizing how much you've grown as a person!

Again, way beyond flattered, Nivz. Love you!

P.S. And if you ever write a book, I'd be the first one in line to get an autograph ❤️
