Desperate times call for desperate measures! - Page 2

I have to recall (my) yesterday's optimism and so will not say we have 9 days yet to change Miss. Ovi's mind. With all deference, the chic has lost it, she is clutching at straws as she sinks deeper and deeper into the abyss of despair and hopelessness. She is desperate and well, desperate times call for desperate measures! She has tried the barter exchange with Archana who for once was smart enough to call the girl's bluff and hand her the wedding card instead. But Archana underestimated Ovi, the girl is clever, she is Savita's protegee after all, she has found the chink in the armor, the weakest link, the Achilles' heel in the Karnajkar household, Miss. Purvi Deshmukh. The latter is so fixated on her mother's happiness, it borders on the unnatural.

If Purvi throws her love to the winds to give her 50 something mom a chance at regaining her long lost happiness, a happiness that has not only been dead and buried miles deep but has in fact vanished without a trace, more fool she! That happiness she seeks for her mother is a mirage that even Manav realizes can never be resurrected into reality. If Purvi dares to even consider Ovi's crazed offer to exchange Arjun for stopping the divorce, she will be foolish beyond compare, and that is putting it mildly.

With that said, PR is fast losing its charm, yes, from last night to now, it has nose-dived straight into the same abysmal depths from whence Ovi conjured up this Faustian proposal. Mephistopheles was never to be trusted, the deal was too sweet to be true even for Faustus, here the sweetness offered, Archana's happiness, is akin to the honey that barely masks the bitterness of medicinal concoctions. Unfortunately, the one in need of the concoction is the one in the driver's seat offering it to whoever is weak enough to stomach it.

CVs, you will be disappointing and dissembling if you do not keep to your word, the wedding montage and the FB status. That would be a blow aimed directly below the belt. Not a good idea to treat your viewers so.
