hi bheegi,
thanks for the pm. this was a big bolt of lightening in pehchan land. let me begin by saying, this is so far my favorite part of this ff. needless to say, i loved reading through it. i read it a few times last night and then this morning, and i had so much to say. i think i've forgotten most of that but lemme recall..
all her life, she lived/suffered the consequences of other people's decision and now she is facing those borne off her own choices...
i liked how you described every character in detail and touched upon what happened in these two years and how each reflected upon their lives and the changes that took place. for me there were some remarkable changes, starting from when that coffee mug broke, their first serious fight (can i call it that?), armaan's reconciliation with his father's family which was a big turn for him but i do get a sense of something amiss there, the changes in padma, atul and anjali.the independant rahul and muskaan, looks like they came out of all this without a scratch. the second marriage of abhimanyu to jiah, somewhere something seems amiss, it was fairly evident in his para, he still has issues with armaan and his first wife. there seems to be a tale to go along with riddhima's reluctance to talk about what happened when she returned to mumbai a year later. i have a feeling, there is another twist here, related to shanky, abhi, armaan and even jiah which only you can reveal soon i'm hoping. all said, i still don't like shanky or trust abhi. jiah seems another mystery.
coming to ar- as i wrote in my brief comment for the last part, i feel both of their reactions are shaped by their individual past experiences and therefore it was all but natural that they were not seeing the same direction at this point. at the end of the day, no one is perfect, we are all humans and both armaan and riddhima, showed that in this part here. both made mistakes, gave in to passion- which again, i feel like there is nothing wrong with it, but the biggest issues was their past experiences that has moulded their thinking in such a huge way. armaan wanting to get married, he would know best the pain of growing up as an illegitimate child, without a father figure and seeing his mother suffer, and wouldn't want riddhima or his child to ever suffer the same fate.so his flaw, is in comparing his and riddhima's situation with damini and shanky. on the other other hand, i sympathasize with riddhima in her decision not to get married or even get into a formal commitment at that point given her failed marriage, the divorce that materialised only a day before, it was natural that she wanted to fly one time, without any shackles...doesn't an ididvidual who has been through so much deserve at least that much freedom?
we can argue that, she failed in her commitment to armaan by spurning his proposal and we can even argue that she could have done things differently. but like it does, things happen...and he made a mistake by asking her to leave in the middle of the night, she faced an unfortunate situation..and everything went from rosy to dark. may be she could have tried to reach out more to him afterwards, may be he could have tried to find her the next morning? looks like his genes kicked in at this point..but either way, both made mistakes, and now are living in sorrow. until they both realise the other's pov- and see where the other was coming from- i don't see them getting back togther. and then their pehchan, the quest will be finally complete..
but did i tell you, i loved this part.😃love the tension it has brought and the pain and craving. make it more, bring it on! so we can feel like a-r are finally at it. i hope no one hates me for asking that😆
and now i will stop, i feel like writing more but i fear you are probably getting bored with my rambling.😆
pleaseeeeeeeeee make the next update soon :)
