In the past tense: 😃 H, The words you write as I always say weave a wonderful web. I waited for you to complete this part but then couldn't hold on for you to complete... as as much as you've described in these two time frames held in her Polaroids has a wealth of happenings. Lovely!
I could so relate to her description of Juhu marina... its a place I visit so often and the picture within the Polaroid of a time gone by but yet a portal to memories and unspoken tales in keeping with societal and human characteristics. I agree Khushi's view of her first ever Polaroid ... each picture is indeed a time tunnel to precise moment in the twisted thread of their lives. 👏
The way you described the holism in the abstract viewing of the manner in which she arranged the Polaroids was beautiful and very true... We can admire the beauty of light only because the dark has continued to be mysteriously silent. Same with life then each and everything we value or hold dear is because we know what the other aspect of it is ... Our value towards aspects of life is because the other counterpart is co-existent and so we can be aware of what is it among them that we want to shine out and the other to be mute.
I just love it H, when within your writing you leave few sentences that hold a wealth of meaning and symbolism.
The two scenes or to say Polaroids she views (as of now that you've included in the part ) are interconnected ... one speaks of a couple united but yet shy... while other of a couple that are not yet so because of the blur images they form in the other's mind as they don;t want to either face the future with them being "Us" or because they aren't able to convince the other about the "us".
Please continue soon... I am waiting for you to continue this story and wanting to know what else comes here...
