Hiya Hammie, hope all is well on your end :)
Have finally made my way to your UD
So without delay shall we get right to it?
Out of my hands: Part 7
Wow, Dutta is so completely taken by Naku's beauty. It's like every second he is thinking about it! Meanwhile Nakusha is nervous about the looks she's getting from the folks in his home place. Of course, reasonably, she ponders what they all must be thinking. And though he tries to put her mind at ease, it's a hard feat to accomplish since no matter what you do there will always be people waiting to know...to speculate...and naturally you get awkward in that moment...
LOL DP's not sparing and moment to praise her beauty. He's obsessed. Really, shouldn't this be a scary thought? :P
Nakusha's discomfort from getting attention from men speak much about her especially her morals. But it's good that she also notes like others Dutta's taken to her beauty as well...the superficial element...
His explanation and then suggestion that beauty can go on forever through art was interesting. I tend to agree with that part, you can portray a lot in artwork. But regardless that she inspires his work, I think the man is suffering from tunnel-vision and I hope she can change that. More to her than beauty...
ROFL haha I see she's recognized his obsessed-stalkerish tendencies finally :P
"tu bolna Nakusha.. main sun raha hoon.. pata tu chale tera dahmak mein kya chal raha hai? he urges.
^ This line reminded me of that scene in LTL in his room...where he's asking her to explain as to why she rejected his proposal...and it well worked with the situation here where she questions if he only sees what catches the eye...
I think I'd find him very frustrating to work with...with the views he has...I'd probably be sitting there arguing LOL and I absolutely love that Naku is pointing out how unrealistic and superficial his thinking is...
" I choose summer than autumn.. I warm to sunny skies rather than grey ones, I like the pulsating beat of the heart , rather than the hoary breath of dying..."
^ I just recently wrote something on the view of autumn/fall I think your Dutta needs to read it...but I can't share it yet...as for Dutta he's a stubborn mule I just hope Nakusha can do something about it eventually!
So she meets his father, I found this scene very pleasant. His questioning the reason behind her name, her explaining matter-of-factly why she got it, and him dismissing such nonsense by stating what daughter's mean for them...
Damodar's concern for Naku's image is touching and rather true too. And then baam he asks if there is more to Dutta's relationship than work...gosh he works fast huh...and Dutta is pleased about the approval. Haha their union is now pre-approved??
Ohhh this is too good...already testing the possible future DIL's cooking skills! And Dutta's taking the opportunity to sketch her in the act...
There is a tiny bit of domesticity to this scene...even though it's not your typical scene...I rather enjoyed it. And their shared moment after was quite something. Almost as though a lot happened in that moment when on surface nothing at all...
So she passed the cooking test and even earned herself a nickname :P Well, now that she's welcomed into his home by both father and son...let's see how long before she's taking up residence in his heart ..
Thanks for the wonderful UD. Enjoyed it a lot. Do continue soon.
Take care, Hammie! Cheers!!!
