First of all, wow! thankyou everyone for all your lovely words for my prev post. RheSha's fantastic performances do most of the work for these write-ups.

Hope you like this #throwback scrabble🤗(scene+drabble😉)
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

During their emotional reunion at the airport, both Mishti and Abir unknowingly end up indirectly confessing their heart-felt feelings to one another. So Abir decides to bring Mishti to the mandir to finally give their relationship an official name. But Mishti is nervous and hesitant, knowing the grim complications that loom over them; like perpetual overcast clouds. In attempt to clear the skies, she turns to question the man she not only loves, but also considers as her mentor; she nervously asks him, what does he really think about this delicate connection between them. Recognising her apprehension to pronounce a name to their new feelings, Abir in his own poetic style, provides her that assurance, strength and comfort, ki “hum woh pyaare se ghar bana lenge”. Overwhelmed by his words, Mishti replies with a warm smile, as Abir looks tenderly back in to her eyes, she instantly feels those fluttering sensations in her heart again. Mishti tries to buy herself some more time, and thus runs away from his hold and gaze. Momentarily, they become entranced in an unexpected flower petal shower. As Abir tries to create a few sweet romantic moments, Mishti continues to avoid his mesmerising eyes. Their little fairy-tale moment is broken when a group of children cutely ambush them, throwing colours up in the air.
When the mist of gulaal eventually dissipates, Abir is instantly transfixed at the sight in front of him. Like embers of fire sprinkled on the moon, he notices small remnants of the laal rang on her face. Abir has always been a faithful and loyal devotee of the lord. He’s always believed in the power of kismat and, once again he was blessed in disguise. They say that “bacche bagwaan ke roop hote hai;” so the fact that children showered them with the rang of love, purity and power, had to be a special message haina?
“Ye rasta mushkil bada hai,
Ek aur sahara de maula,
Ek baar tune de diya hai,
Ek aur ishara de maula,"
The signs from god can’t get any simpler nor more magical than this. Thus, (our hoshiyaar and sanskaari ladka😆) Abir accepts this “ishaara” from his beloved partner and surrenders himself to his heart. This time, he doesn’t hold back his emotions and his impulses, and instead allows his heart to take the lead. Soon, Mishti turns back and notices something different, but before she can realise the change, she gets lost in his endearing hazel eyes. The feeling from the touch of his fingers against her cheek, quickly gives her the answers she’s searching for in his eyes – pyaar. For a quick moment she glances down to watch him gently wipe the colours off her skin. Mishti can’t help but smile adoringly when she looks back up and sees how focused/engrossed Abir is, as he continues to adoringly remove the remaining rang from her cute little nose.
Our pyaari chorni never fails to surprise our gadheda with her bold moves😉. Once again, he is momentarily puzzled, whilst Mishti the caring friend that she is decides to return the favour. She leans in, and his eyebrows furrow in bafflement, as she tenderly holds his chin and turns his face away. The tables have turned and this time, Abir secretly glances down from the corner of his eye; his lips slowly curl in to a smile, as he sees Mishti trying to brush the colour off his cheeks. Sensing his gaze, Mishti looks up and instantly stops (wiping) for a second. [Although this exact moment is a fraction of a second;** it still conveys so many thoughts and feelings] In that momentary eye-lock, they telepathically realise that this silent exchange between them is their first touch of real love for one another. Not a reassuring handhold, nor a consoling friendly hug, but just rather a genuine moment of pure affection, love n care, straight from their hearts. But at the same time their child-like conscious makes them realise, how this also may seem kinda ‘cheesy’. They share a cheeky smile and maybe even a lil giggle. Embarrassed, Mishti looks back down smiling shyly and continues to remove the remaining powder. Whereas, Abir who is now beaming with a wide smile; closes his eyes contently allows himself to soak in this feeling he’s been longing for -- pyaar. Thus, they have coloured each other in their own rang after all.❤️
Before Mishti tries to avoid the elephant in the room, by running away again; Abir pulls her close to finally confess his feelings to her verbally. And where better than, the home to all purity, love and peace (mandhir), all attributes of which both Mishti and Abir represent together.

I know this whole confession sequence is worth watching in complete as whole episodes, each and every moment is worth a drabble post on it's own...but I always felt something super special with this specific part - mishbir + holi colours = ❤️❤️❤️
