P.S.

The boxers may have taken a break but they will be back. Aman is on the trail. More sleuthing is required to solve that mystery. Did they stay on the entire time or not?

Not worth it, coder. I would prefer Arnav spends time with a therapist

Has boxers actually lost the match, I don’t know because as I said if they have either it was r*pe or Arnav cheated.

Shradha sorry couldn’t tag you.

No. The boxers are still in the ring. Its not over till its over.

Either way, its not cheating. He might have been raped. At least he was taken advantage of.

Ok I woke up, read the chapter, cried buckets. Now my kids are hollering for me and I need to still digest things. Will be back with my comments later

But Arpita take a bow. I was so sure till yesterday that Arnav has loved Khushi and he did everything for her benefit . I am sure today as well about that fact, but today I don't know if it's a good thing for her or not. His love for her has given her ocean of pain.

I will comment more later

I am going to comment in small parts.

I somehow understand arnav but felt more pain and devastation then numbness all over after khushi's reaction. Most women in our country (not including the metro cities becuase things r very much different and modern but majority of population reside in small towns, rural areas) somehow represent Khushi. Being a girl child, living a sheltered life, grooming to be daughter in law or someone's wife. Before marriage under the shadow of father - after marriage under the shadow of husband, then in ur middle age to old age under the shadow of eldest or alone. I think this particular stage of life will eventually teach her a lesson that to never trust anyone blindly(be it family or partner). For that she needs to pick up all those broken self and ready to wage battle against her own insecurities, selflessness and inferiority complex.

Arnav, ab kya bathau? late realisation and assumptions killed his chance of happiness. Wish he went for that therapy year ago. Thoughts muddled, no Communication and his over responsibility and always do right mantra fu@ked up everything.

VD and khushi and rhea and Arnav 🤣

The twist Arpita have in mind is Arnav and Khushi at the end be sister in law and brother in law celebrating Rakhi.😈.

You raise valid points about the place of women in many traditional household.

There is also a trait in traditional household that men are the head of household, they make decisions and they are final.

The 34 year old Arnav has done the same..since the kids topic came up and ONS that resulted in pregnancy

yeah. I would never agree that he wasn’t taken advantage of. He said no enough times. We have gone over this enough times. Male biology and all. Lavanya did not back out even when he was wasted to the point of not being able to provide full consent. All I have to do in that situation is reverse the gender roles and I’m sorted on my stand.

True. A no is a no. But he will only accept..if he goes into therapy. Otherwise it is not happening.😐

Otherwise the shame and guilt will be a burden always

Take a bow Arpita.I was teary eyed while reading this. We all knew the questions Khushi will be asking. But still reading them in your words is simply heart wrenching.With each chapter you set a higher bar of standard for yourself and go higher with the next chapter.

Okay, I have cried cursed and slept over it. I don’t think I could have said anything yesterday. My brain pretty much behaved like Arnav’s and things jumbled up.

first of all, I am beyond bummed that the boxers lost the match. In hindsight it does make sense because then pregnancy was much more believable to Arnav.

However, if he really was drugged in any capacity, I will personally write enough curses to Lavanya that I might just get banned off IF. I swear. He’s dying in guilt.

Coming to Khushi, you make my heart twist in pain for her. Despite knowing of all the circumstances in which Arnav did what he did, this chapter hurt me as much as Khushi’s interlude. Her winds are so raw and this is the first time we see her acknowledge the intensity of her pain. Needless to say, it hurts.

It did not even occur to me how it would have seemed to her when Arnav’s asked her who told you instead of how are you? As a reader I know he was going absolutely crazy at the time, but she doesn’t know the extent of it. Khushi would have reached out to wipe his tears if places were swapped. In fact right now when she was in absolute low, she still was tempted to reach out to him instinctively 💔💔

I am again bowled over by how much this woman actually loves and believes in him. She accepted his answer that he did not have an affair because she still believes he is a decent enough human being to not lie at this stage and if anything that killed Arnav more.

And to acknowledge that she still didn’t say a single thing with the purpose of hurting him or demeaning anyone else. She simply stated what she felt and even that was unbearable to Arnav. Her turning away from him has caused him so much pain. A good reality check to what she must have felt.

Also, I am so glad that this chapter did not focus on Lavanya alone and Khushi called him out for shutting her down. If we have any hopes for them in the future, this problem needed to be addressed. I hope it knocks some sense into both of them about their priorities.

Now coming to Arnav. I wanted to rip my hair out. I am hurting for him too but him realising how bad he is at communication is literally the worst thing possible. You as a writer nailed it, me as a reader just cried realising it.

The way my heart twisted when he shut up because things had started to sound like excuses in his own head 💔😭 I am glad he still fought his natural instincts of running away and told her majority of it. I wish if he finds out that his drink was hampered or even if he remembers how vehemently he said no to Lavanya, he would let her know. I seriously wish whatever our lord saviour Aman comes up with, is enough for Arnav to look Khushi in the eye. Someday.

He needs to apologise and tell her with more conviction that what he did was for her benefit. I guess in some ways he already said that and Khushi also accepted it. But her question was too valid. How come she is the one who ends up getting hurt if everyone was trying to protect her only. 💔💔💔

I am still team Arshi who believes they need a lot of therapy. I had to go back and read Arnav’s memory lane again to remind myself of what the reality was. Not that it makes Khushi’s pain any less real. I needed to remind myself where his heart was when all of it happened.


coming to VD. I see what you did there.

His last line was ‘let’s find your happiness (Khushi)

you really did not go subtle with breaking my Arshi heart there di 😭😭. My hopes of seeing them end up together in this FF are slashed by half after this chapter. I have the same feeling as Arnav. He is too late.

Khushi realising that she had put herself behind everything was the only silver lining in this chapter. I hope in coming days, she comes out of this paralysing pain and puts herself first. She still getting moved by Arnav’s tears is my last hope for both of them and my own sanity.

ps- on a lighter note, now that boxers have lost the match , we will fill pages thinking what is VD’s full name 😭

take a bow di. Take a bow. Every time I think I’ve become normal, this FF pulls me back into madness.

I need to say this to you..before I go to bed.

Do you think Khushi will discover the note he wrote to himself and kept it in his wallet ? The note cannot be instructions to himself..not to take decisions for her behalf right 😁

Plus she finds her full letter that he preserved😉😘
