This was AMAZING. His trauma is so big.. it's a parallel universe. It just struck me that in the show it's Zoya who had a traumatic childhood and nightmares and a myriad of reasons to become stone hearted and numb. But she doesn't. She chooses to live her live happily, spreading her happiness.
And you've done a marvellous job of showing what would happen if Asad went through a similar trauma. He wasn't the lively, bubbly type of person in the first place. Sure he was mischievous, but he kept to himself, never showing his pain. And keeping that all bottled up can consume a person to a pit of darkness that's almost impossible to get out of. This is what I see here. How his memories of his mother's death, the agony, the helpssness, the realization that she wasn't coming back... were all eating him alive. Taunting him, haunting him and threatening to make him feel something he'd been avoiding for years: Grief and acceptance.
I am simply enthralled by your writing. I was really not expecting him to send her with Ayaan. But I was anticipating him not keeping her with him. But I'm really curious now. Did his father rape his mother? Was he the reason she actually died? So many questions! Need to know!!! Sorry this is such a somber and analytical post haha just really wanted to say what this story made me think about and how I admire your ability to turn a simple scene (a man trying to have sex with an unwilling woman) into a saga of emotional roller coasters and realizations.
Beautifully written and waiting ANXIOUSLY for the next part š³
