Late again, but I like to think I make it worth the wait! 😉

Indu, what an unexpected and yet fitting closure to the story! If the first two parts dwelt in ethereal moments and eternal connection, the last explored the very earthly suffering that the two protagonists, especially Aarti, had to face before they fulfilled their destiny to be one. It was heart breaking to hear of her past after their last separation, and ironic that she was "unwanted" only after she was adopted, having found her home, her family and her safety in Yash back at the orphanage. And Yash's story, though he had everything he could possibly need, was equally heart breaking because none of those other things could make him truly happy until he had her...she was his family.

I also loved the way you handled her fear of intimacy which was extremely touching. When he married her, she had nothing to give him but her crippling fears, abject misery and loneliness. But he took it gladly because anything that was hers, he was happy to share. He knows what life is like without her and so he embraced her and all her disturbed emotions and sensibilities. Isn't that true love after all? He soothed her fears and waited patiently until the day that hopes and desires started to spring up once more in their place. And the final push for Aarti being jealousy, how wonderfully human! She wanted no other woman to have a part of Yash that she didn't hold, and so she let herself become his to make him hers in every sense!

Beautiful story, Indu! I can't wait till the inspiration strikes again! 🤗

@Sia: Thank you...I am happy that the story appealed to you. The day something tickles me and I feel I have to write, I'll surely do so. 😊

Worth every letter of every word of the syntax of the summation!!!😛 Thanks...🤗

And Yash's story, though he had everything he could possibly need, was equally heart breaking because none of those other things could make him truly happy until he had her...she was his family.

You understood the underlining pathos here so sensitively, my friend...exactly what I wanted to say. Aarti was introduced to warmth and love by him; she grew up in his molding, in his cocoon...and when he left, she still did fine as she had the lingering warmth of his memories. She was rudely awakened to the outside world after she was adopted. "She was his family"...spot on. The family that they formed with their innocent love and togetherness...the family that completed them. A whole got halved when they separated...and as such they could fill in the lonely gaps of the families that adopted them, but not the gaping hole in their own selves.

I also loved the way you handled her fear of intimacy which was extremely touching. When he married her, she had nothing to give him but her crippling fears, abject misery and loneliness. But he took it gladly because anything that was hers, he was happy to share. He knows what life is like without her and so he embraced her and all her disturbed emotions and sensibilities.

And the final push for Aarti being jealousy, how wonderfully human! She wanted no other woman to have a part of Yash that she didn't hold, and so she let herself become his to make him hers in every sense!

Remember dadiya had told her to hold onto him even when she was pushing him away?...Because her old wise eyes had seen through the troubled girl. She knew he would stand by her, come what may, but she had to partake that slice of wisdom to this lovely girl, so she take the right decision when the time comes. Aarti backed off first because that was an instinctive reaction of a physically abused woman...but his voice got through to her as it always did...and she moved toward him.
As for the NV factor...and the final push, I am going to quote Yashbabu: Wo ishq hi kya jisme tadpan na ho; Wo ulfat hi kya jisme jalan na ho.😃

Beautiful story, Indu! I can't wait till the inspiration strikes again! 🤗

Thanks Samana...for really being there with me on this. Your support has always meant a lot...and always will.🤗
