~ A Father's Choice ~ Dilsher&Rudra Drabble-ish

Fantastic, Rae!

I'm glad you didn't allow the constraints of writing a Drabble (I guess hence the "Drabble-ish"? hehe) to stop you from fleshing out the reason Dilsher lies here--the flashbacks, and the contrast. I'm glad that Dilsher's emotions start with a repentance of the lies he had deliberately told his son back when he was a child--beautiful women lie, beautiful women are evil, etc...and regretting the "flight of innocence" he so callously expedited, if not actually forced, upon a troubled child. The imagery--the child crying, him deliberately allowing the tears--tossing and turning back then, the cruelty that comes due to his own lost hopes--gorgeously, movingly brought out here.

When I read it I understood but was not sure what I comprehended. Thanks to naptsmonster...Rae I think to comment on your intellectual work in detail ...one should be of your equal league...which I am sure not. But I can appreciate as a normal reader ..so please give next part too. The bond between rudra and dilsher is unique . Hope they won't kill dilsher in the show.

Excellent! Loved ur take on these two characters..can't wait to read the original idea u hd in mind :)

I love that you have explored the equation between the father and son. I don't know how much they will show in show on these two, but you have defiantly allowed us to see how it may be.

This is so beautiful. I already love their relationship, albeit it is still unexplored - full of gruff love between two men. I am not sure what will happen in the show, but I do see that Dilsher will look at Paro anew after the fire episode. He had been her firm ally from day one and now that will change I suppose. Look forward to reading more.

This is poignant, touching and so very beautifully...you are amazing...

Thank you...

This OS is, for me, a lil all over the place (hence the note below) but in any case, you can definitely ask me if you ever have any doubts! Thank You for your comment though and about another part, I dont think there will be one (not sure as of yet)...this was a one off drabble :)</font>

Thank you. Will sure ask you in future if I am confused. Will wait to read your stories on Parud.

Out of the three pieces you've written on RR, this has to be the one I loved the most. This was brilliant Rae! Whatever may be the circumstances - his belief that Paro plotted to kill him/ run away, he could have easily repeated what he had said to Rudra years back - the thing about beautiful women always leaving. But what he did, was so touching, his character has shown such growth - which you've captured magnificently in this piece.
