You caught hold of exactly my peeve with Paro - of being too pushy too fast and not letting Rudra get used to his changed circumstances. And then you explained it all so beautifully, so convincingly and so at length that my peeve is now with Rudra for not realising what he's letting go of in his stubbornness to hold on to his sense of being hard-done by, and for patronising Paro's loss.
Amazing!! Superlative bit of work!! Filled in all the gaps that the CVs have overlooked.
Hats off!! đź‘Ź
Thanks, Sabs!
I reached my breaking point with Rudra during his extremely self-pitying speech last night ... the man is not just obsessed with his demons, he's in love with them!!!
There is a saying ...
I cried because I had no shoes ... till I met a man who had no feet.'
Rudra is looking only at his own troubles, his own pain ... he has not a moment to spare to think of the pain of the people in his life, who love him, care for him, are doing their best to make up to him for what he went through ... mentally he is still that emotionally crippled child.
But he is a man now ... and he needs to grow up. I have seen seven year old kids get angry with their fathers for shouting at their mothers, and swear to protect them ... and this guy is still stuck on ... "she left me" ... even after he knows his mother was abused. He should know what she went through ... he went through a watered down version of it himself ... but still, NO empathy for the mother who gave birth to him, at all? It was sickening!!!
And his sentence to Paro, that his pain is bigger than hers because she had loving parents, was the most insensitive piece of bilge I have ever heard ... she had six years of love ... he had thirteen. Even with that equation, he comes out the winner.
If he stays the way he wants to stay ... the only person who will regret his behaviour, is Rudra himself. And maybe he won't get another chance.
But I really wish the cv's would SHOW some of this!!! By concentrating on his pain to the exclusion of everything and everyone else, they have killed the beauty of the story.
