I mean he has no one to love him for who he is. In today's episode Malvika and Khalid wanted to take him for dinner but my mind questioned did Khalid actually want to take Kabir for dinner? Not because he was Kabir a guy who just escaped death otherwise he would have asked Ananya to join them too. Khalid wanted to take his Editor-In-Chief for dinner!😕
Malvika wouldn't have given any importance to Kabir if he was some junior reporter just like she forgot about Ananya as soon as she came back(now she is in the jealousy mode again haha😆) So Kabir knows that Malvika gives him importance because he has power and he gives her importance because she is KL's daughter.
However, he is very well aware of their selfish intentions and looking at him one could tell after such long exhausting days he didn't want to mingle at that moment with fake people.😵
On the other hand, when Ananya called he was shocked then smiling because he knows she is not fake but i guess when she mentioned that everyone was going, he didn't want to mingle with everyone in the tired state as he likes his loneliness better. He is so used to being alone that after two days of being with Ananya he wanted to give himself a reality check that he is all alone..
But he was happy that she invited him! The smile that Kabir gave Ananya was so different from the smile that he gave Khalid.. The smile to Ananya was so genuine..
When he was cooking, he was back in his loneliness zone when suddenly Ananya messages him. He was quite amused that she has a get-together and yet she chose to message him. And that was clearly displayed on his face.
But the turning point was that after her reminder of their new friendship, it dawned upon him that maybe afterall he now has someone to talk to and that he actually is lonely so he smiles while texting her and he starts anticipating her reply because after so many years he felt someone was actually his friend.
When she says she won't disturb him now and he starts feeling empty again and he realized his loneliness and he made the first step to call over his brother and invite him for dinner..
The best thing is that it's just been one day of friendship and Ananya has started restoring his faith in relationship even though this was just a tini-tiny step like 1 of the 1000 steps he is yet to take yet it's a progress.
So yes Ananya does affect him.. I mean just look at the guy.. He never used to smile so much... Even in the precap😳😳😳
P.S: The song on my mind right now is " ABhi toh party shuru hui hai" but i mean that "Abhi toh kahaani shuru hui hai!!"
P.P.S: I am so excited to see the changes that our Ananya will bring in Kabir!
