A brilliant and intelligent piece of work.
A gripping plot line so beautifully interwoven in such simple and few words.
I had almost come to believe so many things and all were wrong guesses . But i do not see it as my shortcoming to read between the lines rather your brilliancy at story telling. You were able to create that illusion that he was alive all along. Such refined writing.
A salute to you Zarin for this. If you have written more such stories let me know.



@blue - me too..at one point in time I even thought of a possibility that Geet has come back for a revenge and it is going to be against Maan :)

this is one of my favorite stories, re-reading it with the context of the knowledge about the revelation..

while reading it again, now the initial lines look so meaningful..
somewhere I had read, one way to look at this poem is, it is like a reunion with the beloved one..and it perfectly suits here.

previously, the wrong doing word had kept me confused for a long thinking about all the other possibilities in the story...now I can understand when you said, you started with the ending for this story..
this is the end, them meeting again where the terms right and wrong, life and death have no meaning..where the anger, hurt, guilt is all left behind..and where the mind is pervaded with only feeling of deep love.

This is so amazing! I love the way you've written it. Short and clear cut, I'm shocked by how you write it's just so good! I hope to see more of your stories :)

Before anything this line was "it"for me.
"That's not good enough,"

As this line for me, marked the questionable onset of transition for the character.

I was thrown into no- man's land by the first chap.
Geet depicted a very uncanny and dark persona in the beginning of this SS.

I was convinced until the very end of chapter 4 the Geet is immune to life and she does not give tinker's damn about anything else.

But chapter 5 was the game changer for me, the words, plot, dialogues squalled to me like a newborn "she cares and she cares heck out of it"
I am never the one who complains about size about the update , because I believe *good things come in small packages *

Your masterstroke for me was the title .( Rumi saab too)
For me smokes and mirrors was Geet's desperate attempt to escape from the truth and her realities with such a shaky conviction.

She might have been successful in obscuring the Mob but she failed to escape her ghosts

Forgiveness in the end was liberating.
Thank you! For writing such a beautiful piece

PS - Susegad I adore you * hugs*
