I don't know why I've never come across this ff until now, but caught up. I am speechless! By far one of the best ffs I've read so far! I was hooked from the very beginning.
I loved how you changed it up but kept the ShiVi essence in the storyline. Their dialogues, their comfort levels when they talk, Shiva's protective instincts, the pandya family's warmth, mami's love...you captured it all so beautifully. I even imagined all the scenes happening, even some of the flashbacks Raavi had (the ones from the actual show).
The way I cried reading Raavi's story 🥺. I don't think I felt this bad for her in the actual show! When she started to open up, I just wanted to give her huge hug...thankfully Shiva was there for her! I loved how she found strength in Shiva, and how protected she feels around him. But I can't tell you how much I smiled when it was revealed that her son's name was Shiv! My heart exploded! 😭 You painted their relationship perfectly. You gave them another dimension ❤.
I think I made it obvious that I loved the story. But I have to leave the last praise for you...You are an awesome writer! Please give us some more! ❤
