@Jyo: I too think that Aarti and Arpita were different but part of the difference you described was because Arpita had no baggage really. As far as we know, she was just a normal girl, with a sweet family who hadn't been through anything particularly traumatic in her life. Aarti, on the other hand. brings much more baggage, from being orphaned to abandoned by her husband to blackmailed by her supposed parents. She is not in a happy place! And the truth is that she is impressed by Yash too, just has not been allowed to express it and has been misrepresented by his family.
But is it awful to say that at this early stage that may be a good thing? Aarti is not the type to play games so she would never play hard to get. But she is being made out to look like she is and there is no denying that that is unsettling and challenging Yash. If this MU didn't happen there is a chance that Aarti would have gone into worshipful silence, ever agreeing with everything Yash said. And he would have gone into a mode of self satisfaction, thinking that nothing every had to change...because he was perfect. 😕 But her "rejection" is making him want to pursue her, because he can't get her off his mind and he can't figure out why she left.
And his rejection I think will teach her that she can't trust someone else at the cost of trusting and believing in herself. It is great that she learned to trust Yash but it would have been a worshipful, dependent trust, I realise now, as though he left her no choice but to trust through his action. Now he will have to earn her trust from scratch and this time it won't be the trust of a helpless mother who has no choice, but the trust of woman who can do things perfectly well on her own but chooses to place faith in him.
