Disclaimer: i'm ignoring past few episodes, which had no logic at all, all that tadi and so on made no sense, i'll make as if they jumped straight from that bhang episodes to this episodeđ
"There are no facts, only interpretations."-
Friedrich Nietzsche
The beauty and what makes people unique are their views and thoughtsTruth isnt always as simple as we think, there's a reason why we always relate truth to a coin, which has two sides
not gonna take anyone's side today, both Annika and SSO are completely right at least in their own views
what worked for me is after one month and a half, they actually talked
it's not about whether they love each other anymore, it's about their own personality, Annika is a girl who married SSO for one day just to save her brother, and today again she sacrificed herself because she thought SSO wouldnt be able to accept the illegitimacy truth
it's not just a matter of whether she had the right to take this decision or not, she did what she felt she had to do that time, this was Annika, she can destroy herself to protect her loved ones! Right now we are all complaining how SSO broke because of this, but then also Sahil broke completely when he saw how his sister was forced to marry SSO because of him... and 3 months later when she saw how SSO was destroyed, she regretted it, but that doesnt mean she has the courage to tell him the truth even now... This is our Annika
while SSO has always put his family before everything, his family is everything for him, when he married Annika, Annika gently molded into the 'ideal' wife he always wanted, thought where their familiies are concerned, both can actually die for
he also has the characteristics that he has to know everything that is happening, remember the NKAK
also first time he actually fell in love, opened himself to a girl, he changed a lot for Annika
and now that girl destroyed what was heaven for him, she destroyed the 'ideal' reflection he had of her, she hurt his family, and most important of all she broke his heart. He understands that she has a reason, but he's right that unless he knows the truth, he cant do anything... i also feel that he needs to know the truth because otherwise the fear she'll again leave him will always be present.
she didnt trust him to make everything ok is a big thing for him, because he's the great wall of Shivaay, he always makes things right for everyone.
SSO knows that Annika doesnt want to get married to TB, and if he had any doubts today's episode cleared it completely, and even Annika accepted it. So now he has only one way to get to the truth, by 'forcing' this marriage on her and breaking her to tell the truth.
so basically after today's episode, we can finally relate to both Annika and SSO, they are as flawed as the other right now, one wants to protect the other at all cost and the other wants to know the truth so that he can get her back in his life with all haq
No matter what SSO says, we all know SSO will never be able to clear this raita of illegitimacy, SSO clearly has no idea what type of truth Annika is even hidingđ
well this is my POV, and i'm happy and more calm post today's episode with Shivika, my babies at least talked and now the only thing between them is the 'truth' not TB or Naagini or anything elseđ
the only thing missing to make it perfect is:
Annika telling SSO that she's not gonna marry Vikram, not even to prove any point, but she still doesnt have the courage to tell him the truth
and SSO going after his family too, because Annika isnt the only one who knows the truth, OmRu, Pinky etc know why Annika flipped 3 months back
