Sapno ki duniya. Asli duniya.
Anjali
Motilalji must be mistaken ... He has to have been ...Shyamji had clearly said he had not bought any ring ... There must be some misunderstanding ... Yes, thats was this was ... A misunderstanding ... What else can it be ? How can she be so mistrusting ? Doubting her husband like this ...
Agreed, for a moment her heart had slipped, when Motilalji had described the ring. But then how many such rings are there ... Sonay mein jadhi hui heray ki angoothi ... Pretty much a nondescript description ... Can be used to describe every diamond and gold ring ever made ... Although he had said Simple style vali ... She was just being paranoid. And hadn't Khushiji said it was her engagement ring?
One phone call and everything will be cleared up. He not in his office ? Anjali Jha ! Get a grip on yourself ... He is a lawyer ... He must be in court ... Stop being so paranoid ... You are lucky, you have a life people dream of ... A loving family, a doting husband ... Stop trying to look for trouble where there is none ... Dreams sometimes do come true ... Yes, even for you ... She only has to look at her husband to see that ...
Ipoona, what s with this Anjali? So Naive? When she questions or suspects her husband she then negates it with some excuse all the time. She needs to wake up and see him for who he really is. But as a sister she is fierce and loyal, even as a wife she is blinded.
La
If some had told her a few months earlier that she would throw her dieting regimen to the wind and crave sugar, she would have scoffed at them ... La and sugar ? But now, who cares ... It seems she is living in a dream world ... Her heart constantly seems to racing ... ASR and her ... Finally, finally getting engaged in a couple of days ...
And, he really seems to be coming around ... Who would have thought ? Just yesterday her heart had dropped when he had said Yeh sagai aaj hogi ya kabhi bhi nahin. Either he wants an out badly or maybe, just maybe, he just can't wait to get married ??? Hadn't he had said, Mein aur intazaar nahin kar sakta. The words had been music to her ears.
She had been a so worried. He had been so darkly volatile lately ... Had been more distant than usual, hadn't said more than a couple of words to her since the Diwali announcement ... But now, Thank God !!! He seems to be over whatever funk he was in. He had come home from office just so they could select their rings. Had even selected that lovely gold necklace for her, all on his own. She just needs to give him his space and time ... Not crowd him ... He is still distant, but that ASR ... It is enough that he is here, with her ... For her ...
Oh our dear La, I always felt La lived in LaLa land. She wanted ASR so much she was blind to everything until the very end were she saw clearly. So happy she got what she wanted even if it was for just a few moments. It is actually La who brought Arnav and Khushi closer. Thanks, La.Arnav
She stands, screened behind a shimmering veil ... A dream in red. A memory ... A fantasy ... Her eyes slide, refusing to meet his fixed gaze. Her flitting eyes are reluctant, unsure as she adjusts Chunri to cover her herself from his hypnotic scrutiny. He parts the shimmering strands of crystals and steps into his into dreams.
Bridal Red ... The color leaps at him, seeping, saturating even through the layers of his deep sleep like consciousness ... His memory seems to have sharpened ... Tonight his dream is more beautiful, more vivid, more lifelike than he has ever dreamt before. A bewitching vision ... she has inhabited his dreams every night ... But tonight she seems so close ... so real ... He can almost touch her ... He steps further into his dream, towards her. Her bridal chamber. They are cocooned from the rest of the world ... He does not want to wake up ... She has to be real ... This cannot be a dream ...
He reaches to touch her, as he does most nights ... Expecting to wake up ...
She is real ... She steps back, refusing his touch ... He wakes up slowly ... This is no dream ... This is real ... She is real ... The engagement ring on her finger is real and her denial is real
Arnav always mesmerized by that woman in red. He can't resist she places him in a trance every time. but then when he realizes what he has done he becomes annoyed and places blame on her and his gussa comes out. he is such a wounded soul. love him.
Khushi
She will not be pulled in again ... Him ... her ... This dream like shimmering illusion ... It is nothing more than a mirage ... A fantasy ... Hadn't he said that ? Koi matlab nahin hai ... Doesn't mean a thing ... Good thing he had said it, because she is wide awake now. He reaches to touch her, she steps back ...
His lips thinned, his glow in his eyes turning stone cold in an instance. He is purposefully, caustically flippant, not a moments hesitation to remind her of her circumstance.
Rs 34,999. Not all that bad ... he appraises with his eyes, but, she and her fiance wouldn't be able to afford it. What a pity ... He had crooned insincerely. But what the heck, he was in such a good mood, he'd buy it for her. Apnay fiance say kehna, Arnav Singh Raizada nay engagement present dia hai. And if she has trouble accepting a gift from him, she should really think of it as a tip, because hadn't she done so much for him and Lavanya ?
Yes ... This is her duniya ... Her asli duniya. He never fails her. She can always depend on him to drag her out of her sapno ki duniya, but he really should not have bothered, because she has been done. She has been wide awake for days now. The last few days have acquainted her well to her circumstance.
She is always prepared to hear such biting words from him ... But still, her eyes had not been able to hide her heartbroken shock at his callousness. But tonight, Arnav Singh Raizada should remember, is not Diwali ... She learnt her lesson well that night. She has paid the price of her foolish sapnay with her tears, with her broken heart. Tonight, her feet are firmly planted on solid ground. A tip ... Yet another caustic reminder of her position his life ... It is very welcome.
She had pulled the price tag out of his hands. Nahin chahiyay, she states firmly, her voice unfaltering, her eyes determined. He was right, she had looked squarely at him, it want that bad, but really, wasn't that special either. Humay pasand nahin hai, par poochnay kay liya shookria. She had said with a quiet, steely dignity.
His eyes had flashed in anger. She will not give him what he wants. His relentless needling campaign was not easy for him either ... Before he could respond his phone had rung, dragging him out of his nightmare like reality.
He had returned to find her sitting, no longer the fierce girl he is used to, not even the quietly proud girl who had rightly put him in his place not more than five minutes ago. In her place he finds a broken, shattered girl staring at the price tag, held in both her hands. He had, once again stepped into the private circle of their world, no longer an illusionary fantasy, but still a very real place. A place of shared experience ... a shared heartbreak ... a shared pain ...
He is responsible for this ... He is the cause of her broken heart, her tears. Her tears question him, Why ? Why does he do this to her ? He cannot hurt her like this anymore. Her heartbreak shatters him. He cannot continue. He will not allow himself. It is over.
Does she hear the stutter in his voice, the disjointed, clipped sentences as he tells Lavanya he cannot stay. This battle, it is not easy for him either.
my dear Khushi I love her in every way, when she is strong, weak, zany , crazy and sad, or angry. She doesn't deserve what she gets from him but he will rectify this later and if not I will have him rectify it in my FF. lol
She does stand up to him most of the time but it is the crushing pain when she can't do it anymore that hurts so much. she was great in this scene.
