And Silent flows the Pain ...

Hii All,😊

* I know extremely long post but today I just could not stop myself...Thanking u in advance for patience ..



Arnav is alerted by the tinkling sound of the metal falling on the floor, his X-ray vision focusing on the spot hiding Khushi, while a scared Khushi begins shooting up telegrams of mercy to DeviMayya ,All to no avail as Arnav zeroes in on Khushi and subjects her to a 3rd degree incinerating burning glare.. A flustered Khushi clambers up to b followed like a jet propelled rocket by Arnav who seems to got his Burning stare button on permanent ON ..Khushi dives to ehr right to escape from the roiling heat only to be baulked by Arnav's hands , She stands there already to be barbequed , and An obliging Arnav opens his mouth with 'How dare U ' tantalizingly poised and dancing seductively on his tongue ..only for the memory to rush in and remind him about his oath of silence ..A bubbling Arnav is stymied even before he can roll , Khushi instantly understands his predicament , A smile of amusement slowly surges its way onto her face ... Arnav bangs on the wall * Careful, kahin wall toot na jaye * unsuccessfully reliving his impotent rage and walks away ..while Khushi's smile begins to widen only for it to be wiped out as soon as Arnav turns to give a seething glare ...


Anjali comes in wanting their Mother's bangle for Arnav's wife .. A bangle denoting a relationship that sees no beginning nor end..A bangle symbolizing infinity & eternity ..A bangle holding Arnav's past and his future ...Anajli opens the treasure box containing the bangle , watched warily by Arnav as the scar is scratched releasing the pain, afresh again The haunted Siblings begin to reminisce ,Arnav's visage alternately softening in love, in sorrow..when Anjali reads out that Arnav has a volatile temper hiding a ocean of love and wonders aloud what their mother would have said about him..Arnav painfully replies that She would not have recognized.. A realization , that he has changed,he is no longer the warm boy that his mother saw ..an acknowledgment that somewhere that Boy has lost his way and is searching for it ..an acceptance that so busy was he from getting hurt again, he has become lonely ...While Anjali's pain finds release in tears, which gushes out ..Arnav does not have that liberty for he is a man imprisoned in his own fortress , A man who is not comfortable showing his emotions to his family ..as tears does well up in his eyes..Arnav abruptly gets up from his chair and walks out only for him to be met by Khushi who sees him with tears in his eyes...The tears which he does not bother to explain to Khushi,importantly the tears which he is not ashamed to show to her , even more importantly he is willing to show his vulnerable side to Khushi ...

Circumstance leads Khushi to the very spot where Arnav is communing his pain with the heavens , her face crumples in sadness as she witness his silent cry, wishing very much to comfort him but held back bec the man is not ready for it ..Not willing to disturb him, Khushi silently moves to do her errand , but Arnav has already sensed her presence , does not resent her presence seeks comfort in her presence ..he asks Khushi whether dead souls really do become Stars ?? His words conveying absolute trust in Khushi's reply, his question reposing faith in Khushi , His query accentuating the fact that he knows Khushi will understand him ..Khushi is very surprised on being elevated to the role of his confidante ..

A Calm and loving Khushi looks at his pain ravaged face, her heart melting , seeking only to erase the pain and yet not to provide false comfort, Khushi softly replies that it is not about fact or falsity but it is about Faith & Belief ..Khushi slowly goes and stands by the side of him , silently underlining that she too has gone through this valley of anguish and she is willing to share his burden, she walks by his side and stands there as a pillar to lean on if need be, a quiet mien showing that she will always be there to half his sorrow ...Both stand shoulder to shoulder, side by side ..partners in pain , Orphans due to accident ..Two hearts capable of enormous love , capable of dying for love , holding reservoirs of love...Lonely hearts unconsciously seeking one another , becoming each other's support ..Khushi points out to the stars and shows her parents .. An action which would have given raise to mockery by ASR is viewed in complete understanding by Arnav, A Arnav who believes in her ..when Khushi explains that their parents will always be watching them, Arnav wishes to know whether they are happy seeing them ..Khushi is speechless while a completely unarmed Arnav quietly, trustingly asks Khushi whether his Mother is happy seeing him now ..Khushi is voiceless ..Arnav turns to her look her in the eye..his eyes questioning , raw pain and naked anguish exposed ..Arnav looks at Khushi his eyes conveying his love , beseeching her companionship , a mute appeal to be with him for always..Khushi is unable to comply and she takes leave as Arnav begins to slide on the mask and becomes alone again with only his misery for company...But Khushi's gutted heart does not allow her to walk away ..she turns and asks whether he is fine .. the questions seems to act like a balm on his wound as Arnav's face relaxes slightly as his pain seems to flow and ebb away from him at her concern.. he nods in affirmation..Khushi walks away , watched quietly by Arnav , but this walk does not seem to be like desertion..Arnav appears to draw strength from her words, cloaks her invisible presence around himself and stares into the stars again ..perhaps seeing his future ..



The last few mins , Barun completely stole over the scene ...

beautiful...no better way to sum up today's episode..😊

So beautiful. You are SO talented!

Tanthya's Tathya shines like stars on a moonless night!!!
Brilliant my friend. Thank God for the epic-sode today, for you to draw your inspiration from!!!
Yes, he walked away from Anjali and let Khushi into his pain!! That is huge!! Despite what has past between them, the only person whom he could trust with his vulnerability was her. He stepped down from his throne (read ego) and broke his vow of silence!!!
What was conveyed in that one look today spoke more than all the words put together. But i ask, why did he ask her if his mother would be happy? What did he want to hear? And she didn't reply - is that because there was nothing that she could say or is that because she didn't want to go there!!!
And the precap - his mother's letter said to return his love with interest -- it seems that she is starting with his attitude - i.e. returning it sood samet!!!

Great read, Sathu!!!

He stares at the stars...looking on to find his mum...
