The timing of things happening in one's life can either be deemed as a boon or a bane. In Ahem's case he had clearly told his father that he did not need anyone's help. He thought out his concerns and wanted to talk to Gopi. The talk took him to a new level which he never imagined, leaving him shattered and speechless.

He was left thinking and processing Gopi's words from the previous night as he dressed up for work in the morning. He recollected her telling him about her being an orphan and remembered his mother's words of disowning him, leaving his mind more rattled and disturbed.

With his mind in this state, a trustworthy Jigar advised him to apologise to his mother using emotive words and empathy in his voice. This got Ahem thinking further that as this is having a negative effect on his mother too that he perhaps he should do just this, which he attempted to but failed.

Was Jigar's advise a boon or a bane? Jigar had good intentions but the idea of this was spurred by Rashi.

In turn Gopi was there to see this interaction between them, with Kokila maintaining her hostility and Ahem attempting to talk to her. This time Gopi did not walk away instead offered him breakfast. He replied that he had a breakfast meeting. This short dialogue had shown Gopi continuing to care for him and him being polite to respond to her, something that in previous times would have annoyed him but now he looks for this.

What is the purpose of the puppy around Ahem? The beauty with puppies are their unconditional love that they give to their owner. It appeared out of no where and deemed to be lost and without his mother symbolised Ahem's current state of being declared as motherless at present. Will his interaction with the puppy transform him to eventually provide this unconditional love to his mum and Gopi? Or is it something else?

Here too is the puppy a boon or a bane for Ahem? He has got something to care for having being detached and disassociated from his newly found relationship with his wife and his bond he had with his mother.

Ahem remains in a state of quandary. Whilst he in mentally processing his interactions it is these boons and banes that could bring about a false sense of security for him and angst. His journey of love of seeing the horizon in sight is further than is made out to be.

What do you say?

Before gopi was the puppy in his life...pat her wen he feels... shout at her wen he feels... but gopi all the same.. unconditionally in love with her ahemji... now her place has been taken by a real puppy...

there r some solid similarities between the puppy and gopi... this puppy is an orphan.. so is gopi... gopi says 'ji ahemji' for everything he says.. puppy is doing the same by wagging his tale all the time... i think the puppy will remind him of gopi 😛

Wonderful analysis Swasthi.

Ahem's trouble continues, even though he understand why his wife was not even understanding him, his immediate concern is his mom. Gopi's words about knowing how it feels to be an orphan reminded him that his mom disowned him, this is a big shock for him because his mom had always forgiven him in the past, but this time she refuses to even give him a chance to explain or apologize.

The abandon puppy has captured his attention, which is new for Ahem, in the past it seems he was never too fond of animals or birds, this could be a blessing in disguise for Ahem making him realize that it is easy to think about himself and say the words of not wanting to be a father but the reality of raising a child and for that child to growing up without a parent is very distressful. As was in case of his mother and himself and would be in case of Gopi and the child she carries.

With Koki still refusing to believe in his apology and feels he is not apologizing from heart it will be interesting to see who steps in to help Ahem come close to his mom again.

An apt comparison between the Gopi and the puppy.

It will be interesting to know how he will spend the day with the puppy in his office. Will he think about Gopi over this time? What further interaction with the puppy will encourage him to action his apologise to his mum?
