Nikki...so far this chapter was the best according to me. Not a moment of dullness, every para was a required information .
Am not going into every scene detail...for I loved the entire chapter but yes few thoughts I would like to share -
1. Never judge the book by its cover - so true - Aarushi's modern look and behaviour can put her into a wrong slot but it is her thought that holds culture and has given shape to her character. Loved her mature and much needed talk to Yash.
2. Prashant's death didn't concern Yash, it was Sunshine he couldn't allow to die and so slowly he found himself changing towards G3 and Arti after Aarushi putting her words effectively into Yash.
3. Grief is the price we pay for LOVE - This suits Arti for the situation she is in. We saw her sleeping peacefully in Yash bed alongwith Palak. Sometimes your jerks/grief wipes out momentarily cause the protector/love is there to look after your grief... and that is the sole comfort she got in that bed...her love...which I believe you will do so...in your later chapters...ofcourse I don't want u to highlight it.
4. Joy multiplies and kills the present emotion to express happiness. This is what happened to Arti to her reaction of the first word 'PA' uttered by payal and her immediate action of hugging Yash and then the realisation.
5. Love is such a deep foundation that irrespective of how the weather behaves...the foundation refuses to move even if it happens to be the earthquake...and this is what Yash has realised his deep love for Arti which he refused to believe with the range of emotions that played in his life.
Reaction of Yash in your next chapter can be controlled emotions if he goes by Aarushi's positive thoughts and then we can see the happening of the party scene given by you in your earlier promo.
Would definately love to give you ⭐️⭐️⭐️ as this chapter was worth and also for keeping up your promise. Once again Nikki...well done!
