Love me when I least deserve it, because that's when I really need it ~ Swedish Proverb
Prats is riding in a rickshaw after sunset looking for Krishna. She spots his bike outside a downmarket bar. Unsure about entering such a place she waits outside awhile before she enters and is greeted by eve-teasing drunks. Again? Who would she slap this time? 🤔Shocked at seeing Prats's reflection on his bottle Krishna stares in disbelief for a moment before he hurriedly drags her out of the bar. Back to the old manhandling again Baba? His action spoke volumes. For a man who claims there is nothing left between them why does he care Prats is at a sleazy bar frequented by male patrons at that time of the night? Didn't Shamu consider her safety at this hour wandering around town, even if she is Takur SS's bahu? For a man who claims he has already erased all images of her from his life, his mind and his heart, he seems to recognize her instantly in the bar. Liar,liar pants on fire!

He appears not all that drunk😕, He turns on her in outrage. "Have you lost your mind? You don't care about where or when you go or what will become of you in such a sleazy place, tell me what are you doing here? Awww! Baba, you still care! "You have lost your mind." What is this? 20 questions? He repeatedly tells her he doesn't care for her anymore. His eyes speak a different message "You know when I hate you, it is because I love you to a point that unhinges my soul" (Julie de Lespinasse). As the saying goes, the first reaction always reveals the truth. So much passion in his outburst and he says he doesn't care? Come now Baba, you don't like joot moot remember? So how about you stop lying to yourself and face the truth for both your sakes?
Why do you hasten to remove anything which hurts your eye, while if something affects your soul you postpone the cure until next year? ~ Horace

His hot head cools down a tad "Look it's like this, I told you before I don't want to argue or talk to you. What's left to talk about when there is nothing left between us?" His eyes lock on hers like laser beams on its target. "I don't want to talk about anything, the relationship between you and me has already ended." His eagle eyes wait for her reaction. "I don't want to see your face, stop following me, go away from here. And I'm saying this for the last time, next time don't come in front of me, stay away from me." Baba, ever heard the saying "you can run but you can't hide". All this bigtime nautanki bec' she didn't figure that you'd change your mind after that outburst at the hospital and wait for you at the Niwas? Next time think twice before you explode, its about time.
True Love burns the brightest, But the brightest flames leave the deepest scars.
"I'm not supposed to love you, I'm not supposed to care, I'm not supposed to live my life wishing you were there. I'm not supposed to wonder where you are or what you do...I'm sorry I can't help myself, I'm in love with you".
Prats pleads "Krishna I know you are mad at me, but a husband/wife relationship doesn't end just because you say so". Krishna dismisses her "Go away, I don't want to listen to your lectures. Ouch! Who is he trying to convince here, her or himself? Prats questions uncertainly "Does that mean I don't have the right to even talk to you?" Krishna fires back "NO! you don't have any rights. Of course she left without saying a word to you, didn't she and that's unforgivable in your eyes at the moment? Awww! Baba is hurt. For a man who doesn't want to see her ever again he can't seem to tear his eyes away from her face.😉
"You may not love me today, tomorrow, or ever, but I will love you until it kills me, and even then, you'll be in my heart."
It's impossible to fall out of love. Love is such a powerful emotion, that once it envelops you it does not depart. True love is eternal. If you think you were once in love, but fell out of it, then it wasn't love you were in There are no "exit" signs in love, there is only an "on" ramp.
He glares at her for a few moments longer before he takes off on his bike. Prats has no right to talk to you?🤔 If he doesn't care about her what is that outburst just now all about? He barely let's her get a word in edgewise, he does a lot of talking and it's obvious he cares. He tells Prats to get out of there but instead he's the first to take off on his bike with Prats left standing there in the middle of the night. Krishna, you are staying put in that pound until you get your act together. Where is the concern for her safety you had for her a few minutes ago now? Nice move! leave your wife standing where drunks stumble out of the bar. Bad move Baba!
People who fly into a rage always make a bad landing
It's "Chow Time" once again at the Hellhole Haveli. Takurain asks Piasiya to serve some spicy food that her palette craves. Her request sends SS into a fit of fury and he flings his glass of water across the room, alarming Takurain. Phew! It was a metal glass. What now? Do SS and Takurain have a pact to throw in some nautanki in the mix to spice up mealtimes? He howls at her to eat what she's been served quietly. Thiis is SS's way of punishing her for self-immolating herself and causing all this nautanki at the Niwas? Komal is clearly disturbed to see the blow up at the dinner table. Hey Komaliya! Now you're missing those peaceful meals at Saxes, aren't you? She is visibly upset but explains it away as missing Adarsh . Guys like Adarsh are dime a dozen! 😛 Now she gets to relive the hell she left a while ago. Will she start to appreciate the hell Prats has lived in for over a year now while she made a mountain out of a mole hill and nitpicked on every little thing that bothered her at the Saxes? Or is she a lost cause like her mother? Someone's got to point out to her that if she keeps on the path she is on, she 'll be ready to be the next nasty Takurain herself. Komal chalks her long face to missing Adarsh. SS questions how she hopes to deal with Adarsh's absence for three years when she's missing him within two days of his departure.The ever practical SS who has no time or inclination for romance. But with the new woman coming on board, who knows! We may finally get to see an old romantic fool in action.😆
Movements born in hatred very quickly take on the characteristics of the thing they oppose.
GD reminds Komal that the Saxes must miss Adarsh a lot more, if she, Komal as his wife misses him so much. With their only son going overseas and their bahu back at her maike the Saxes must be very lonely. A gentle reminder to Komal to get back to MMGJ so she doesn't stir up more trouble at the Niwas? Komal dismisses her "No one in that family is upset about Adarsh's move overseas, they must be enjoying themselves bec' they love their daughter more than their son. She is there now so much, would they even miss him? Looks like Komal is upset bec' she expected Adarsh to be the apple of his parent's eye like Krishna is at her maike and it didn't turn out that way. Komal takes off on cussing Prats once again "Don't' know what time that homewrecker woman came into this house everything has fallen apart since then". Now that Prats is out of the Niwas, Komal will get a taste of life at the hellhole again after living at GH.
In hatred as inlove, we grow like the thing we brook upon. When we loathe, we graft into our very soul ~ Mary Renault
Love, friendship and respect do not unite people as much as a common thread for something. ~ Anton Chekhov
Komal is on a roll today. "Good thing only Takurain got hurt before she left or she would finished every one of you. GD jumps to Prats's defense "Why curse Prats? It's bec' of her that you got a good, handsome husband like Adarsh". SS warns both women not to bring Prats name in the Niwas ever again. Maybe both he and SDS should stop taking Prats's name every few minutes for a start. KN reminds him of a land deal gone sour but refuses to handle the problem. SS decides he will go in person and handle the problem himself.
The worst lies and the lies we tell overselves. We live in denial of what we do, even what we think. We do this because we are afraid. We fear we will not find love, and when we find it we fear we'll lose it. We fear that if we do not have love we will be unhappy. ~ Richard Bach
The family finally is focused on eating dinner when Krishan "Devdas" Singh stumbles in taking a gulp from the a bottle in his hand. "Now that Prats has been removed there is no problem in this house, she won't tell anyone anything, she won't bother anyone". MMM is wondering if seeing Prats at the bar has got him into a self-pity mode that he is telling them they've won and he's lost after all. It sounds rather sarcastic, something he could easily have said to his family to defend Prats in a sober state.
SS is sure Krishna will zap Prats out of his mind, his heart and his life for good. But at times he doesn't look so laid back about all this at all. He brags about knowing his son very well but he's soon going to find out he doesn't know his son at all. What's the point in being worried about him now Takurain? Take a good look at what you have done to your son. This is just the beginning. Krishna stumbles to his room refusing GD's offer to join them for dinner. The true colors of every member of the terrible Takur family is slowly revealing itself since Prats left the Niwas
Good character is not formed in a week or a month. It is created little by little, day by day. Protracted and patient effort is needed to develop good character ~ Herac***us of Ephesus
A very worried GD implores SS "before Baba destroys himself, bring him back on the right track, and before we lose him. SS gets angry "You are talking nonsense. Nothing will happen to Krishna he is my son, my blood, I know which direction he is going. Eat quietly, stop worrying and say your mantra". Is GD hinting at Krishna in big trouble soon? Every time SS has been too sure of Krishna he's seen it blow up in his face. With the upcoming track of the "Ganga" mayya in the picture will SS inadvertently send Krishna back into the arms of his Babu? Will the arrival of the new woman expose Takurain as she tries some of her gatiya plans to get rid of that woman the same way she did Prats thus exposing her mischief to the family? Will it be SS's way of exposing Takurain's gatiya behavior justifying his reasons to be rid of her and get himself a new younger woman? In recent days SS's feelings towards Takurain have turned sour.
To sum up Krishna's state of mind today in the words of Neil Gaiman…………..
Have you ever been in love? Horrible isn't it? It makes you so vulnerable. It opens your chest and it opens up your heart and it means that someone can get inside you and mess you up. You build up all these defenses, you build up a whole suit of armor, so that nothing can hurt you, then one stupid person, no different from any other stupid person, wanders into your stupid life...You give them a piece of you. They didn't ask for it. They did something dumb one day, like kiss you or smile at you, and then your life isn't your own anymore. Love takes hostages. It gets inside you. It eats you out and leaves you crying in the darkness, so simple a phrase like 'maybe we should be just friends' turns into a glass splinter working its way into your heart. It hurts. Not just in the imagination. Not just in the mind. It's a soul-hurt, a real gets-inside-you-and-rips-you-apart pain. I hate love."
