A TUG !!!... PART -2

What a way to compare and contrast two events,Simply magnificent channels of thoughts which connected and knotted at the poolside in the form of "circular" bangle.A TUG⭐️

A knot , A tug of events , A tug of Love and hate within them or around them is the key element since from the beginning.The tug within is getting closer but reducing the hate but a tug is gripping them ever by tightening the circles around them and Love how you explained she didn't let Shyam erase Arnav's mark on her.

Contrasting reaction of Khushi towards both men holding her Dupatta for Haldi was really compelling... 👏

Shyam's creating hurdles and jailaibis analogy is cute way to describe the upcoming events but he could never achieve his goal and yes definitely Anjali will be taking the heat .

At the poolside we are closing the loop which took her heart in a tug of confusion, rejection, and devastation but today he is crossing all barriers to deliver all of his passion and longing to awake hers.That day he hated himself , " how can I let this happen, how can ASR fall for any girl like this...But today he is letting himself , freeing himself to love some one and to be loved by someone.

Edited...I read so many times this piece of yours and found one thing because you are leaving for us to think through your edits.How smart.The Tug with Shyam is making her breathless and choking her life and making it more difficult to deal with him and his nonsense which is going to make her understand clear all of this on Terrace where she will see his TRUE Psycho face.But that happened after that Kiss and it is like a WARNING for her to expose him , to remove this HANGING sword which is hanging around her neck all the time to be free for her mate.Her heart says that Do it but her mind and circumstances are keeping her hush.

While Arnav is releasing her from those torturous pain and clinging thoughts which are making her to resist following her heart and embrace her desires but her mind is making her resist because of Arnav's past tracks.

You are Good👍🏼

Episode 175

Aap bhi theek nahin hai ...

Payal sits on the bed, unable to do anything because of her hennaed hands. Something is very wrong with her sister ... Ever since they returned from Shanti Van ... In fact even before they retuned, she has been acting weird ... Staring into space, not hearing anyone ... Maybe she is coming down with something ... She does look so flushed ... Her cheeks look like they are on fire ... And she constantly keeps touching her right cheek as though trying to cool it.

Little does Payal know what truly ails her younger sister ... Her cheeks are on fire ... She does feel feverish ... She does feels like she is burning up ... But no medicine in the world can cure this ailment ... She keeps touching her cheek to cool the sparks flying out it. Before her eyes swims the last few moments by the pool ... Him leaning in ... His lips pressing softly ... Right here ... Right where her til is ... He had kissed her ...

And not just the kiss ... She had not looked at him directly until the very end ... But she had felt the burning heat of his gaze on her, had heard the soft drag as he controlled his breathing ... Felt his words softly fan her face ... She had felt that if she even so much as glanced at him, she would disintegrate into him ...

She can still smell his woody citrusy cologne ... It clings to her skin ... It perfumes the air around her ... She can still feel the rasp of his evening shadow on her skin like a burn ... He had been gentle ... It had been so fleeting ... A brief heart stopping, soft pressure ... His warm breath ... The sound of his kiss ... over before she knew it. But the tingling on her skin refuses to die down even hours from then. She can feel sparks flying out of that corner of her cheeks ...

Her eyes had been frozen in her wide eyed shock. He had softly interrupted her stunned thoughts ... Dekha mein kah tha ... Tum nahi kar paaogi. She had stepped away, unfurling her Duppatta, looking at him with dismay, her eyes accusing, she had turned on her heels and run.

Her very first kiss ... It is everything that she has giggled over with school friend and so much more ... Her heart will not stop racing ... How can she be anything but distracted ... How can anyone expect anything of her ... How is she supposed to do simple tasks when all she can think of is his lips pressing against her cheek ... And what about when he had stood on the stair and smirked ... Like he knew exactly what she was going through ... Like it pleased him, to see her distress ...

Khushi ... Kya hua hai ? Payal asks ... But Khushi is still lost ... Payal gets upset ... Jao idhar say, she scolds ... I am leaving this home in two day ... And you ? You couldn't care less, she complains ...

Khushi is immediately repentant ... And so, we get one of most throat catching scenes of the show ... Two sister, their close, entwined lives, their close parallel paths, their shared bed, their shared clothes ... Their shared hope and dreams about to untangle from each other and take on a new, different direction ...

A new life ... A new joyous beginning ... But not one that comes without tears, no matter how bitter sweet ... She feeds her sister ... One bite for each of their small close family ... Bas, bas, aab aur nahi, say Jiji, her eyes shining with tears ... Just one more, Khushi insists, her throat and eyes heavy with tears ... Saab say chota niwla, Sanka Devi kay naam ... She is going to miss her Jiji terribly. She lays her head on her Jiji's lap, her tears falling freely. Payal bends over covering her, wrapping her arms as best as she can in an affectionate hug. A promise for the troubled times ahead ...

The next day, with Haldi celebrations at both homes ... A Dejavu of sorts for our confused girl ... She is again at the front door, once again, hesitant to go in ... Debating whether she should just leave the bags she has come to deliver right at the door and leave ...

Too late ... No chance for any escape ... Who should show up ? None other the very reason for all her distress ... Just like yesterday, he too is at the door. But this time it is he who is laden with huge wedding gifts ...

After last night's incident, she had been worried sick about how she was ever going to face him again ... How will she ever look in those eyes ... Look at those lips and not think of the kiss ... Just the thought colors her cheeks. How awkward it would be for her ... He, she knows will have no such qualms ... She needn't have worried for herself too ... No sign of any awkwardness what so ever ... She had burst out laughing at the sight of him ...

Suited booted in his best ... He had a huge yellow smear of haldi on him. Oh how he must have hated that ! She had broken out giggling at the thought of his displeasure. He of course, is not at all amused. Not one to take being laughed at, easily, he had warned, rather seriously, Hasna band karo. When she had paid no attention to him and had continued to giggle, he had taken her Duppatta and wiped himself with it ... Getting haldi all over her too. See, he had gloated, Aab hansi rook gayi ?

And so, just like that, without any pomp and show, without any one else present, their haldi ceremony is done. Months from now, it is not her Duppatta that he will use to wipe his haldi with, it is her soft cheeks that he will use in an attempt to get rid of the offensive stains. She had spent all morning trying to avoid being smeared, and now her outfit is indelibly stained ... And that too by none other than your truly ... He was right, Hansi bilkul hi rook gayi ... She had not been pleased at all ...

Walking past her, he had leaned back and rather leeringly reminded her of their sharat. Sharat toh yaad hai na ? He had smirked, once again. Voh jo kal raat meinay kiya ... His eyes lewd, his lips curling in a lusty grin, he had leered ... How cheap ! Gasping, her eyes widen at his shamelessness. Ek toh he does it and then he had the gumption to actually boast ? If that doesn't qualify for a gasping Haaw moment ... Then she doesn't know what would !

Well, she too knows how to roast him slowly over coals ... And she spends the next couple of hours batting her lashes and crooning Naneji yeh toh Naneji voh ! All the whole watching from under her lashes as he simmers in slow burning rage. Serve him right !

He had watched the two over his coffee cup, his eyes flaming, his mouth tasting of ash as NK helped her select bangles. She had oooed and aahed over each choice. Voice dripping with honey she had purposely raked him through burning coal. He should have ignored her and let her play her little games ... But he seethes watching the two together ... How is it that she can never do any of this with him ... Not the fake batting of lashes and stuff but maybe just sit and talk ... Hadn't he tried to be civil yesterday ... Where had it gotten him ...

He had watched as she had bent down to pick up some of the fallen bangles. NK too had stared, a goofy smile on his face as he watched her bare back. Her shirt back is low to begin with, but her dori too is undone. Springing to his feet, he had wanted to deck NK in one punch ... He had flexed his hand in a warning bid. Back off ! His eyes had warned ...

Not taking his glowering eyes off of NK's sheepish face even for a second, he had, in one brisk flick of his wrist, slipped the hair band off her pony tail and swept her hair across her bare back, instantly concealing it.

She had been taken aback. Instead of thanking him, she had turned to rebuke him. Just because he had done what he had done last night, doesn't give him the right to do anything he wishes. Humay aapk ki sharat vali baat ko lay kar kuch nahin kaha, iss ka yeh matlab nahin hai ki aap kuch be kar saktay hai ?

Gritting his teeth, his eyes spitting fires, he had countered, completely refuting her, Mein kuch bhi kar sakata hoon, he had asserted his right forcefully. And really does she ever have any clue what is happening around her, to her ? Instead of worrying about all this she should be focusing on their sharat ... Challenges say itna dara maat karo, he provokes her. And he, she had advised belligerently, shouldn't be obsessing over a ridiculous sharat. Not backing down, he had goaded her further, Haarnay valy aksar asi baatay kartay hai ...

She is by the pool, admiring all the lighting and all the decorations done for the wedding. Naniji had just called her aside. He had watched from afar as she gets her dori tied ... The reason for his earlier possessive behavior clear, her lips tremble in an apologetic smile. She looks at him nervously, silently pleading her apology for her uncalled for outburst.

Woefully repentant, her face crestfallen, she tries hard to focus on what Anjaliji is asking of her. Yes ... Oh yes ... How lovely everything looks ... Her Jiji is indeed lucky to have found herself such a loving family ...

Once she puts on a happy face, Unrestrained Exuberance is her middle name ... She launches enthusiastically at each one, kissing them excitedly on their cheeks, one by one, thanking them for being such wonderful in laws to her sister ... App Jiji ki nanad ... She leaps and kisses a pleasantly taken aback Anjaliji ... Aur aap unki Dadi, she kisses a delighted Naniji ... Aur aap unki Sasuma ... A kiss for even the most reluctant Sasuma ...

Aur aap ... She reaches high ... Stretching on her tip toes, bracing herself against him, her hands clinging to his shoulder, she leans in and places a kiss ... Right under his ear, just at the edge of his hard jaw ... It sends electric currents shooting through his bloodstream. An unlikely erotic zone discovered ... just like that ...

His nostrils fill with the heady fragrance of her jasmine Itar ... Her lips are feathery soft ... He feels her weight push against him ... His heels adjust, absorbing her weight, tipping him backwards ever so slightly ... He feels the sticky dampness of her lip gloss, the warm press of her lips against his tough, unshaven skin ... Had he not been so stunned ... he would not have hesitated to grab her by her waist, pulling her to him ...

But stunned he is ... She could have taken a feather and floored him in a gentle swish ... He had not expected it at all ... He had just prodded her, not a minute ago, about not having the courage to follow through. And now, just as she as always manages to do everything, every time, he is left completely blown away.

She had leaped back in horror ... Her eyes wide with disbelief; she had slapped her hand across her lips in horrified dismay. Hey Devi Maiya ... Yeh humnay kya kar diya ... She had wailed ... The sound of her voice muffled. He had watched, glassy eyed, his jaw loose in a complete loss for words ... Humay maaf kar dijiya, she had begged and had turned on her heels and run off.

He had followed her, only short moments later. She is at the front door, attempting to leave. He leans in, slamming both hands around her, caging her in a tiny space. She turns back to face him. His voice low, rough, he leans in ... Kya kiya tum nay abhi ? She regains her composure and throws his challenge back at him. What the big deal here ... She was just doing what he had challenged her to do. There ! It was done. She had completed the sharat.

He leans away, lifting his hands from the door. Not believing a word, he prods, Toh tumnay, yeh saab sirf sharat kay liy kiya ? Haan, she asserts forcefully. Yeh saab sirf sharat kay kiya kia, she lies, her cheeks aflame.

Tum theek ho ? He leans in again, his voice softly mocking, Tumharay gala lal ho gaya. Her eyes, guiltily wide, her hands immediately fly to her fiery cheeks ... Hum ... She stutters worriedly ... Theek ho tum ? He badgers softly.

She has had enough ... Why does he keep asking her this question ?

As far as see can tell, she thinks he too is suffering from the same aliment ...She has heard him breath like her, in rasping, shallow draws, dragging in air as if he too is short of breath ... She thinks she may even have heard the loud drum of his heart ... Maybe that was just her own ... But she definitely has seen his fevered, flushed skin ... It is pretty clear ... whatever she is going through, he too has a bad case of it ... Humari chodiya, she sulks, humay toh lagat hai, aap bhi theek nanin hai.

He pulls away again, slowly ... So she sees it ... He too is burning up ... This thing will consume them both ... As long as she see it ... Feels it ... Understands it, he is fine.

So much has happened since last night ... She sits with her Amma and Jiji packing Jiji's clothes for after the wedding ... The whole day she has been listless ... Her Amma scolds her ... It is her Jiji's wedding, not her's, then why is so intent on she packing her own clothes ? She is, once more, immediately repentant promising her Jjiji her undying pledge ... Her little sister will make sure no harm ever comes to her Jjij ... A promise she will have to fulfill sooner than she thinks.

Spinning Out Of Control ...

Yesterday, he was a man in control - in control of the chase, in control of the sweet assault on her senses. He knew exactly what he was doing and what he wanted. Like a general in a winning war, he drew a plan of seduction, strategized, executed and maneuvered her into the exact corner where he wanted her.

Today, he is spinning out of control - the day started with his Di staining his cheek with haldi - a Di who is intent on seeing her Chote get hitched. And then SHE walks in - like a beam of sunshine, and bursts into gleeful laughter that instantly lights up the house - but her laughter is at his expense! Not only does she dare to laugh at him, she also dares to call him a cartoon! With a right that has become as natural as breathing, he grabs her dupatta and wipes off the haldi with it. A man who pre plans everything, has begun to go with the flow of his emotions, and take impulsive actions - all because of her!

He manages to wipe that smile off her face, but just to make doubly sure, he taunts her with his yesterday's kiss, and his challenge.

But things are definitely not going his way today - she chooses to flirt with NK just to spite him. And seems to be having a gala time doing it. While he glowers and burns, he can't still help getting lost in the vision of her smiling and showing off her bangle-adorned hands. If only those bangles were given by him!

A man in the throes of jealousy and much angered, but still her man - the one who always protects her - he removes her hair band and makes her hair cover her exposed back from NK's look. But today is definitely not his day - she is unaware of his chivalry, and fumes at his behavior. What does a man have to do to keep his girl to himself, and keep her happy at the same time?? A question that stumps ASR today.

In a short while, realizing her mistake, and understanding what he did, Khushi does something totally unexpected - contrary to the decorum, but very much in character for her. An impulsive, from the heart, crazy act which is not thought out at all! Because if she took time to think, she would never have held onto his shoulder, leaned in to him, and gave a kiss below his ear right in front of his Di and Naniji!

Her reaction? Typical Khushi - mortified, a palm clamped to her mouth, she apologizes and runs away!

His reaction? - shell-shocked - stupefied - his mind slowly grips the thought that she kissed him - SHE kissed him!!! THE ASR - sophisticated, in control ASR, master planner of 'Khushi's Seduction' - is trounced at his own game.

It's different to be at the receiving end of a kiss from the woman you love. It's a first for ASR - to be kissed by her soft, moist, luscious lips - to feel her warm breath on his ear - and more than all that, to know that she has wanted to kiss him as much as he wanted to kiss her! Not that she would ever admit to it!

He pins her to the door just before she flees - and she has the audacity to point out that she did it only to win the challenge, and he seems to be very much affected by her kiss!

He sits alone in his room that night, trying to work - but his thoughts and focus, his mind and heart - all stuck in that point of time - her kiss!

In Gupta house, Payal is worried about what her future in-laws would think about her past broken marriage - not even thinking about a bigger secret she is hiding from her soon to be husband about the daamaad of their parivaar. Is it because she mentally decided that it is Khushi's business, not hers? Does she feel less culpable for that because Khushi was the one Shyaam pursued and got engaged to? All she cares about is her own personal past - as if she has already bid a farewell to her family, and separated herself emotionally from all their guilt, mistakes and responsibilities ...

The secrets from past will come tumbling out sooner or later, like unwanted things stuffed into an overflowing closet - the things you chose to hide have a very nasty habit of popping out at the most inopportune moments, causing maximum damage ...

In Raizada Mansion, something else is crossing the line - an evil unchecked and undetected - shyam's immorality, greed and his desire to possess Khushi at any cost - he is setting the stage for murder, quietly and methodically.

Yes, things are definitely spinning out of control today!

Brilliant analysis, ArshiHamesha!!

Sabs ,👏❤️

Thnx and glad you enjoyed it .Fabulous points of "tum theek ho" and "Har kaam tum akaile nahi kar saktin"...I am totally in with you and here are my thoughts in addition to you...

1 -Har kaam tum akaile nahin kar saktin...

Khushi as an orphan, and being reminded as one over and over was forced to do things on her own and reached to the point where she has this solid habit of doing things by herself without putting two cents or second thought of any kind of circumstances or outcome of it .Yes she was taking care of her Babuji's sweet shop and money talks in Lakhnow, Here she came and started doing the same and then she plunged down in the worse when her father was incapable of doing anything . Arnav knows that and indeed he wanted to share the burden and that's how it started but did she get it...NO, ...This goes all the way to GH where she fixes the generator but can't and he fixes it and reminds her the same but did she get it...NO...Now it goes all the way to kidnapping and here she realizes it she can't do it alone but for whom ..for Arnav...

Lets go one step backward...before GH Arnav compares her with Babli and tells her she never had a chance to grow up...After GH track and the revelation of the reason of marriage , she is a totally different person , she is a mature yet her childish , innocent side always remains intact ...and here she thinks in a different way .She takes Mamiji along because she spies on her and both work together in search of Arnav.After her she joins hands with NK...so it's her maturity took some time to grasp the meaning of this "tum hatr kaam akaile nahin kar saktin...

Yes he always wants to share hers by joining shoulders but our Sanka Devi is nirali😊

2- "Tum theek ho" ...to "aisa kyuon hota hai"

For me Tum theek ho starts on the resignation day and why? When she looks at her mark he remembers how their proximity was making her feel strange things as if you remember she was looking at his lips and all but because of extreme pressure, anxiety, lack of food she faints but before she opens her eyes after Payal wakes her up , she is remembering him in her dream caressing her hair "Rajkumar" vs "Shaitan" sets that day...but Arnav completely gets frozen in that mark in his hand by her and he couldn't let go that moment and that's why he asked her "Tum theek ho" ...at that time both had no feelings but still feelings were aroused in them.

Second time when her earring gets stuck and both did feel a jolt and he asks again tum theek ho and she takes time to come out of it but that day the arousal was going through their souls through heartbeat...AND then from Diwali fall [Dhak Dhak] to removing dust from her eyes to Diwali kiss to now near the pool ...each time their proximity and his touch evokes havoc and undefined strokes of emotions and her heart beat sends message to him but when he kisses her She also hears his FAST track heartbeat too through his heated lips and his heart which is basically touching her visage...but then when she kisses him she holds him from his shoulder and her body is submerging in his broad chest , wow there is no way out that she didn't hear his or he didn't feel hers abrupt heart beats because after kissing him she is still holding him for a while...

On teri meri They both know how they both affect each other...A man who has been pecked so many times by La or any model but never gets aroused but this simple girl can send him to the other planet with her presence and she who is way immature in these feelings is getting heated and getting dreams of his proximity...

This doesn't stop there ...on marriage again her earing gets stuck but even he is so in rage ...he knows and feels her trembling condition near his proximity , he grabs her hand gently and removes her earing with great care...love him...

That thing goes to Holi where she tells him and confesses all of these moments "Aisa kyuon hota hai ...aap jab bhi humare paas atey hain...humare dil ki dhakan tez ho jati hai..."

That's how I see it and that's why he never asks her ...Tum theek ho...Her confession is all he needs...He is her NEED and she hers and games takes a different angle from there..

Hope my long jibber jabber makes sense to you...

Once again thnx
