Letters to Sumo- April 9th:I have never seen this side of you

Sumo, my Sumo

I don't know why you apologized for showing your vulnerability.Your tears, they ache my heart but seeing you cry in front of me , allowing me to see you in such a state meant a lot to me. Honestly, I felt rather blessed in that moment where you showed me a new side of you. Thank you. You showed me that you were that 15-year Sumo for a reason. That Sumo who acted like she didn't give a damn, that 15 year old was hiding her own wounds, her own hurt. And I never got to see the real you.

I have been so wrong about you. I have been so wrong about you and I am so sorry. I wish you had let me in all those years ago. I would never left you alone, not for 10 years, not even for a moment. I loved you then. I think I still love you now.

I think I am falling in love with this new Sumo I am getting to know. I have this crazy urge to touch you. To hold you. To be strong for you. To be there for you. That's why think I am falling love with you.

To hold your hand so I can comfort you...I know your hand fits perfectly in mine. I want to hold your hand again. That's why I think I am falling love with you.

To push you on that old swing of yours so you could relive a happier childhood. I want to give you all the toffees in the world so you can smile your beautiful smile again. I want you to put a bindi on so you can relive the happier memories of your mother. Your tears ache my heart, I want to make you smile. That's why I think I am falling in love with you

To hug you close so I can absorb all your pain..I know when I hug you; you hear my heart beating for you. That's why I think I am falling love with you.

To look into your eyes so our souls can converse. You see right through me, Sumo. You seem to be taking off every mask I put on off. That's why I think I am falling in love with you.

To bicker with you just because it's so gratifying to see you fight like my old Sumo. Only you can put me in place. That's why I think I am falling in love with you.

To let you hold my heart so you can love me...because I think I am falling in love with you. I am falling in love with this new side of you.

It has been such an amazing week...loved all the Shraman moments and how the story is progressing and Shravan and Suman are getting to know each other. And thank you to the writers and CVs for exploring and showing Suman's past before she became the Sumo and lived with her Nanu. There is a reason of why a person is the way they are..their past has a way of moulding their present personality. Shravan gets to see that Suman wasn't just an insensitive person, she had a past she was trying to forget, she was battling with loneliness and she found her ways to cope. She wasn't right in doing what she did in past but she did have her reasons for it. I would love to see Shravan and Suman develop a deep friendship once again before or as they fall in love.

Reya 🤗 Thanks for the PM!! I missed reading your thoughts on the episodes. I'm way too sleepy now to type something coherent now but I cant help myself. Wanted to add a small note with res but I ended up typing out a lot more 😆

Shravan is now getting to walk down her memory lane with her and the best part is he is getting to see it all through her eyes. He now sees the pain behind her confident smile. He can now feel her loneliness among her sea of friends. I love these layers they are adding to the characters. They are not camouflaging her flaws in the name of childishness, instead the CVs are showing her pov about it all and trying to put across what made her the person that she is today. They are building up the past really well.

I am so happy right now with the way Shravan's character is shaping out!! He choose to keep aside the bitterness and look at the sweetness of the friendship they both shared. He finally listen to his heart and came back to help her because he valued every memory he shared with her and her home held so many of those beautiful moments. No matter how sad/ happy the memories are, they all are important to him because they all involve her.
