The scene that touched me most from yesterday's episode was the one where they were pointing out the stars in the sky, that represented their families. For me, it showed that for once, they weren't just vengeful enemies or even loving husband-wife. They were just two lonely souls connected by the mere fact that they knew what losing a loved one meant. This is just something I wrote inspired by the scene, hope you like it! All comments are welcome below!😊

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

No matter where we go and who we meet, we always keep our loved ones deep in our hearts. They form the invisible backbone of our personality, shaping our very ideas of love and relationships. Yet how do explain that to two people who have had to walk most of their lives without the caring touch of a mother or the gentle-yet-firm grip of a father?
They stood together, side-by-side on the terrace, taking in the winds of change and the continued presence of each other. He introduced her to his loving mother and in return, she happily pointed out the rest of her family amongst the stars above. For the first time in his life, he saw not an evil woman who had killed his brother but a sad and yet chirpy girl who had once felt the love of a family. He saw a person who had had to lose them and live with their loss for half her life. In the quiet darkness of the night, he felt her loss reverberate in his heart and it hurt him more than did his own.

How do we quantify whose loss was bigger? Is it the one who lost more, or the one who spent more time in the ensuing loneliness?
How do we point out who was more unfortunate? Is it the one who's had to live with knowing the reason behind her family's demise, or the one who wanted to know but never could find out?
How do we decide who's situation is worse? Is is the one who has to live with the one who gave her this loss, or the one who is being cheated out of love from the same man?

In fate's unpredicatable twists and turns, two lonely and pained souls met once, ripping each other off and having to clash together again. Yet the only thing that grew bigger was their sense of loss as they fell deeper and deeper into the hatred sown into them by the same man.
They could not live with each other, but soon enough, they had to find out they could not live without each other either. On the surface they were poles apart, yet beneath the hard exterior, they were borne out of the same tree of loneliness.

At the end of the day, only when they left the earth for the stars above did they truly realise how much they missed in life and how much they had always been yearning for. It was this loss that had brought them closer - simply for knowing how it felt to live without loved ones. Complete one another, fulfill each other - for that's the only way you can make two broken souls one whole again.

Firstly wow! I have said it before I say it again, you write beautifully! Your words simply flow into each other which is a quality rare to find. AMAZING! 👏👏👏

Loved the way you described the scene and their pain. The questions so hurting yet so true. Really there is no way to measure whose pain is greater.

WOWOW! Just loved the way you have penned their bond and their relation. So true, what started as a baseless relation is now the most meaningful one they share. These words are so…deeply touching. Really no words. 👏

Complete one another, fulfill each other - for that's the only way you can make two broken souls one whole again.

Again, brilliantly put. True only they can fill the empty spaces in each other's lives.

Beautiful writing, i could feel their pain and loneliness through your words. Brilliant work! :)

Wow, that was just wow! Really I am at a loss of words to describe how deeply this struck me! You just gave so much insight to that one beautiful scene, really it's just mind blowing!

Really, how do you do it Vita? I've said it before and I'll say it again, you truly have a way with words. And these questions, these questions are the same I've been asking myself ever since we started finding more about Abhay's past and even his present to some extent.

Abhay has truly been broken, almost beyond repair, and we're starting to realize that in small but significant pieces. Like he said yesterday, ever since him mom left him, and I am sure it was at a young age, all he had been doing is running from one place to another just to find someone he can call his, someone who would love him unconditionally, really that is all he wanted. Yet, when he finally thought, after searching for almost all his life, that he had found the person he was looking for, found the love he was looking for, it turned out to be one big lie. Once again he was manipulated and played like a puppet to do the evil doings of a man who has ruined countless life, and couldn't even spare his own son. Really, no one deserves that sense of unworthiness and loneliness in their life, not having anyone to lean on, to share his happiness and sorrows with, that is truly a miserable existence, and Abhay has been living it for as long as he can remember!

Yes, on face value Phulwa has lost so much more, but the one thing she had was the knowledge, the true facts about what happened to the people she loved. Abhay doesn't even have that, his mom was his entire universe, yet everything about her, to her existence all the way to her death is a huge, complicated mystery for him, where crucial parts to the story are either missing or lied about. And the most important thing is, that Phulwa was able to find herself a family after losing everything, yes, they might not all be related to her by blood, but they loved her more than their own kids. The protectiveness the kabilay people showed towards Phulwa was truly beautiful, she was really their everything. And that is the connection Abhay has been missing all his life, something that he has craved and wished for, but never actually attain. And this is why his relationship with Phulwa is going to be so significant, because for the first time in his life after his mom, will he have someone who will love and support him for him, and I think when he actually realizes that, it would be something extremely beautiful to watch!

And I totally went off tangent, but I just found all these thoughts smother me when I read these lines, and I had to lay them out! But really this was just brilliant, every word resonates within you, and it is truly a beautiful piece :)
