yah that was one of the only moments in the episode that disappointed me, im just going to brain gymnastics as narmada having spent too much damn time in that house LOL.
loved the hand hold though and arpita hugging her first and that prompting the hugs and such.
i honestly wonder if they're going to do a nishant decides to teach sundar to read/write and what not, bc he obviously has to be literate enough to handle say groceries and that kind of thing for the family? im 50/50 on whether i want them actually together, half bc sunpita deserve happiness and then sundar could move in with the rathores and get away from the tripathis lol! but in all seriousness, if they did show her being willing to/having sundar get educated, idk, this show is too dramatic for less intense plotlines like that but anything is possible.
ALSO aryan turning back to mom right as imlie turns to him, so gooood
