We saw a completely different shade of Sharon yesterday-she was bitter,she was caustic,but that was merely an act to invoke a reverse reaction out of Swayam-her eyes reflected her hopefulness,her anticipation-we saw Sharon in a completely new light,and boy,did we LOVE her.😃
But yesterday.we saw a completely new facet of Swayam as well-faltering,and without his usual smart-alecky answers to her taunts.He remained silent,because he knew,that Sharon had spoken nothing but the truth,yesterday.
He was stunned at first,on seeing Sharon in Kria's room,waiting to talk to him-confused,at first,at the taunts she was hurling at him.They seemed to have no rhyme or reason at this juncture of their lives,and yet,made perfect sense.
She kept hurling taunts at him,kept alleging that the actual,and sole reason for his leaving was her bonding with Shivam-and for the first time,Swayam shekhawat,who's otherwise always ready with a cocky reply to silence her-remained silent,without an answer to her taunts,for the first time.The only things that he could manage were "tumhe jo sochna hai soch lo" and "tum is baat ko kahaan se kahaan drag kar rahi ho",when he knew,that Sharon was,if anything,absolutely to the point yesterday,and no amount of avoiding on his part could change that.
The weight of the maelstorm in his heart,the several stingin memories that he's carrying with him,and the sudden decision of leaving college,only to find mental peace-all seems heavy now;he can't seem to bear them any longer,with a straight face and cocky words.
The only time he does lose control over his temper,is when Sharon mocks the entire "Secret Admirer" episode,for the incident in the abandoned corridor seems to be etched in his memory,indelible,causing more pain than anything else.
He manages a stern "Enough Sharon"...but nothing more,again,because yesterday,it was Sharon who knew him the best.
Here's to Shantanu maheshwari again,for portraying this all new aspect of Swayam-fumbling,faltering-with majestic flair yet again!👏
