Chapter 29:
Damini has been received with warmth, excitement and eagerness. It clearly defines the kind of bond Virani kids share with her. pleasantries, bowing down taking elders blessings typical indian thing. The emotions and their inquisitiveness, how her and Gautam Bhaiyyas life is, family bonds.
They all talking, bidding goodnight, then Damini noticing Tulsi n Mihir going to separate rooms it surprised her, probably she felt bad too, but again as Tulsi said they will figure out their path, new found relationship.
The part three people reliving their memories completely in different ways in three different rooms, is brilliantly written.
it explains Tuhir emotions, satisfaction,admiration, affection, longing, enormous love, they took a step ahead to admit they are completely in need of each other, to share their routine, get pampered, looking for attention, be part of their world
Tulsi visibily is showing signs of her life with Mihir, without him her life is incomplete, yes you rightly said one good partner will fill all the void of your life. The vaccum created inside her heart is slowly filling by his presence.
I loved this paragraph a lot:
The way he had looked down at her hand and then at her — and said nothing, because there was nothing to say that wouldn’t cost him something he wasn’t ready to spend. She understood that. She had always understood that about him — that his silences were not absence but the opposite. Too much present to be spoken.
The green part is fantastic, whole paragraph is beautifully depicted❤️❤️❤️
Then Tulsi's thoughts shifting to her son, that mother son moment,he appreciating her work she is happy to get this from a tougher boy, but he did, he is opening up slowly just like her. She was sure of getting her son back to her family, mother's instinct❤️.
Damini's loneliness, who can be a better person than Tulsi to understand her situation. The emptiness they went thru inspite of having their own life, routine work etc.
Her thought goes back to Mihir again, their conversation about the son, then the lighthearted moments at the restaurant, his smile, aankhein churake garden dekhna awesome. Chemistry to idhar hai.
Mihir is more than happy to see her accepting him, opening up slowly, her hearty smile, banda bahot khush hai aaj, he didn't sleep properly for last two days will get a deep sleep😂.
Her blame, frustration, sorrows she started showing up, he felt sorry for it, deepky hurt to hurt her, still he is happy she is herself and showing that right upon him.
He wanted her completely as she used to be his Tulsi, fearless, lively,mischievous, smart and heartily smiling.
Mihir remebering hiw she tried to reach Gautam mother at her duty always, which he failed as father.
His relationship with his son, he patiently handled him😃.
Damini was all happy to know her room is left as it was she decorated earlier, the warmth it gave, the happiness, the happy moments she shared all belongs to her, and this belongingness something she is craving for.
I loved the morning Jai Shri Krishna 😂 moment, Mihir probably out of habit told it deliberately, but immediately correcting adorable one, then their balcony scene asking are you ok, hope you had rested well, it's just normal conversation, but here it's a big thing to share😃❤️, then Mihir's concern over her having to go to work, Tulsi receiving it he has no much workload as it is responsibilities are shared, she simply nodding , good improvement. Kal ko issi baat ko leke Tulsi fight karegi Mihir k saath, mere betoan ko kaam deke thaka rhe ho air khud mere peeche lage ho
Would be lovely scene if ever you planned.
The dining area, kids, Damini proposing to get them kids favorite food, kids excitement, Parents worries, Mihir's Doctor bulana padega, Tulsi giving him a look n he went on silent mode😂😂 so adorable. But Tuli worried to about the Maida n it's affect on kids health, Damini assuring she will take care of it.
Pari looking for advise from her father , he giving her lessons to manage time and the product simply superb, she is excited to do something on her own as a gratitude, love, affection for her mother to hold her in her worst, she knew she can ever repay her back, but atleast want to show her live this way, brilliant idea❤️
Pari asking Papa's gift to mum, he as usual knows but probably will come not disclose to anyone, typical Mihir thing❤️😃, Paribbhi jaanti hai papa ko.
Breakfast table pe about Pari working from the core at the lowest level of employees in Bandhej, working in shift, oncemost pampered kid surprized her, but then she knows, samay sab sikha deta hai. Damini
Then our Queens Shobha, Vrinda n Damini talking over the cooking, Damini asking Shobha to spill the beans of TuHir, Shobha's expression from sadness, worries, happiness, fear and her saying if they stay away longer, aadat hogi akele rehne ki, she wants happy parents around her not just for kids but for each other. Mithali felt out of place as she knew nothing of kitchen.
The recipe awesome,( mujhe bahot kuch samjh nhi aaya ingredients , 😂, still you explained nicely ) , Mom's worries and Adventures to cook healthier version of the junk alike which satisfies kids taste buds and maintain their excitement, Damini lived it for Nakul, now doing for these kids, who were so happy their aunt will be with them, kids always like if someone comes home❤️.
Dining happily done, How kids are so curious and hearty family gathering, definitely Damini must be liking it a lot.Damini closely observing how Mihir is pulling chaur fir Tulsi, how these two are trying to be part of their lives again, how they haven't forgotten caring one another, rediscovering every closed path quietly, probably this helps Damini reconsider n think where her rishta stands at, how she can stillwin by small baby steps which Mihir n Tulsi are doing for one another. They need not have to be one ring to fit in another, but the two rings to get interlocked so thatthey stand together holding it strongly equally, instead of one following and the other showing up outward.
Mithali feeling out of place since she ever picked up any household or was taught, now she wanted to gel with the ppl by small things, be part of and disappointed she knew nothing. Tulsi paid her attention inapite of many ppl at home, this care was what Mithali was missing, she is at ease to share her disappointment with Tulsi so easily, slowly Mithali has that trust in Tulsi,
Then our couple Balcony Chamomile conversation 😂😂, you stopped at a crucial juncture, this is not done, I'm curious to know the answer from Mihir😜 and Tulsi's reaction. Mihir ko kyun laggta hai Tulsi Naraz hogi, did he enter her bedroom to chori her visiting card
in her absence?? Or hijacked it from her bag /desk??
I truly admired how you knit the character progression and it bonding with other. Also, the emotions at each juncture, the smallest nuances Coffee cup, Closing door, pulling the chair, mand mand muskaan, aankhoan aankhoan me dekhna, that mother's love for her kid, and the bright shining eyes upon hearing her son's achievement and the grandparents proud of their grandkid, Damini missing these things and probably failed or donno to whom to share etc.
Thank you writer for yet another beautiful Chapter.
