Interlude
The maturity Nishit showed in handling Biplab's situation was commendable. It's not just Kirti he cares for, but her entire family. Loved the conversation he had with Biplab about the sports day. It was probably Nishit's technique to distract him, but he also managed to share his insecurities. No points for guessing which Greenie held his hand and wasn't the least bothered. It was also nice of him to acknowledge his mistake from Diwali night. But looks like Biplab had forgiven him long before that.
Kirti is in a different zone these days, so it's not fair to blame her. But I feel what she cannot have with Nishit is coming in between of what she can have with him. A beautiful friendship. The class issue is there no doubt, but she knows Nishit is a nice person. Much better than Tejas atleast, who she has been calling her good friend all these years. Maybe she can start with gratitude first. Nishit is always there for Kirti. As a friend, mentor, philosopher, guide. Sometimes as a silent support and sometimes even as a punching bag. But he is there, if not at the front, but hovering in the background and taking charge when the situation demands. Like how he managed to take her home when he knew she was alone; how he didn't force her to eat but made sure she had a glass of milk ("You think only you can hold grudges?" ==> Dude seems to remember every taana Kirti has given him). He indulged her when she wanted to talk and vent. Gave her a ray of hope when her spirits were down and just stayed around offering her his soothing presence.
Rimjhim already doesn't have high opinion about Kirti. It will only get worse when she finds out who her mother is. More than that, I am worried how it will affect Kirti herself when she finds out who and how her mother is!
Thank you once again for giving us so many wonderful back-to-back updates! Can't wait for Part 2 to begin 🤩
