Armana,

I have been following all ur ffs till date. But this one comes across as something different. For the simple reason being that am just not able to guess where the story is next headed to.

Each of the character seems to have lots of hidden facets and the layer seems to be peeling away with every episode. But rather than making things simpler you just seem to get caught into them more.

One thing which I would like to mention is the way you are switching between past and present....no confusions but still actively switching...I was somehow reminded of the novel Guide sometimes !

Do i need to say that am eagerly looking forward to the next dose....

The best part of writing is not to think but just write and later analyse what you have poured out on paper. When someone thinks and writes, it lacks an essence of spontaneous reactions and emotions.

I see JW of your FF in a little different light, but I guess it is the beauty of literature that you can always take liberties with your understanding of the characters and a writer always allows that.JW comes across as a very complex character and that is what makes him worth all the admiration.

And I am too lazy to type more so Kindly add the rest of the compliments from MT's response, from my side 😆

And the story is becoming longer than i planned

I'm very relieved to know that the shifts in timelines are manageable. I romise no more confusing shifts.
R.K.Narayan is too great a writer to be talked of in teh same breath as me, but thank you.
