I never thought about it that way but if he did have to sign a consent form, then it would explain the look on his face when he realized what Babita was going through and why she was so afraid in the hospital. He held her hand to steady it, but back then there may have been no one to hold his. Oh my goodness, are they going to show us the delivery scenes and him being informed by doctors that they couldn't save mother and child? I don't know if I could stand to watch it!!
As for Babes and Minnie leaving, he has already told Lala a couple of times that there would be darkness and negativity without them. It will indeed shred him apart. I got the same impression from today's episode when he talked about Babita worrying about her lovely but big girl - the fact that his hands were tied as he did not have the right to keep them in his life, yet. Even where Minnie is concerned, he loves her like a father but I don't think he has realized that she has staked a claim on him as a parent in the official sense. She's thinking about marriage and them both as her parents, but he's not going there yet.
I still can't over the fact that with all that has happened to him, he was willing to let Babita go just for Minnie's happiness. This man has a huge capacity to love. ❤️
I hope he had someone there with him. I don't know how he would have gone through all that on his own. I think they will, it is after all a huge part of his life. I don't know if they'll show the delivery scenes and his married life all at once though. As of right now, Babes only knows about Imarti not his baby and I don't think HS will even bring it up. If anything, it'll be Naeem Bi or even Beeji who might do so.
I like how HS & Minnie's relationship is clear and solid. Nothing can come between his love for her, not even Babes. I think this unconditional love stems from the loss of his own child. He has experienced true love and even a second chance at love but the bliss of having a child? He never got that chance until Minnie came around and that's why he's willing to move mountains for the girl.
