I want to hear HS' soliloquies in the coming episodes once things settle down. Will his general demeanor be sad or numb? Will he spend more time outside the house just to avoid mother-daughter? As far as he's concerned, Babita doesn't love him so the decision to break off friendly ties with those two would seem like shutting down a part of his heart, a key part of his life.
This will be a test of his patience indeed and also his strength of character. Thank goodness Naeem Bi and Lala are there to support him, otherwise he would have a really tough time. We know he's sensitive yet can be emotionally resilient when necessary, but why should any man have to suffer so much? Wasn't it enough that he lost his mother at a young age, never really had a father, no longer has his grandfather around, and worst of all, lost his great love Imarti at such a young age? The wise and wonderful woman who made him the man he is today is no longer around, but following her teachings led him to loving these two women who are his family now.
HS thought he would not be able to bear it if Ashok took Babita away, but how does he handle the fact that his Veer Balika wants to take Babita away, from him? The way she said "aapse door" ... broke his heart right there. He can fight against the whole world for his love but not against his own daughter. What a quagmire!
He had told Lala the night before releasing Ashok that he was strong enough to withstand anything and that his emotions would not prevent him from facing reality. What of this new reality? That he has to choose between the two people he loves the most in the world? That whatever decision he makes, he is the who will lose out? How will he cope?
