You are without a doubt a master story teller. The likes of Sydney Sheldon. My all time favorite writer of thrillers. While reading part 3 you took me straight down memory lane to the first time I read his book which was coincidentally also about split personality disorder.
Thank you so much for dedicating this fantastic piece to me. I am wholeheartedly grateful . this is a perfect concoction of romance and suspense. One thing I love about your stories are that they are so meticulously written.
Sansku yaar this guy always makes me feel for him. Relegating himself to love his wife only from a distance and living with the improbable thought of ever crossing the threshold is a feat only Sanskar can possibly achieve. So when when the blasted pillow wall was finally blasted off the bed the laddoos in my head were exploding at an alarming rate๐Ÿ˜ณ๐Ÿ˜†.

The Maheshwari boys do have a penchant of falling for the same girl. Laksh's love for Kavita was an unexpected revelation. And his entire transformation to a fully fledged psycho was chilling. I think it was his feelings of inferiority and hatred towards Sansku that could have triggered the genetic defect in him. And I loved the sun and moon quote. I felt a tad bit of sadness when Laksh said that.
And now I am really running out of superlatives to describe your work so I'll say something in French. Tres Magnifique!!!

๐Ÿค—

Ruqaiya my dear friend...๐Ÿค— ๐Ÿค—

You just made my day, by saying my attempt at this thriller genre reminded you of a master like Sidney Sheldon. ๐Ÿ˜ณ Man, that was a HUGE compliment. Thanks so much, yaar.

I think the book you read is called "Naked Face". I remember reading it too. Amazing, na? My personal favorites of Sheldon's, are "Master of the Game" and "The Other side of Midnight". You must have read those, na?

Oh, I wanted to dedicate this piece to you, yaar. You had asked me after "Saudade", na, that I could have continued the tale a wee bit further, to show the hotel room scene as well? โ˜บ๏ธ Well, hotel room I didn't do, but then in this TS, I put SwaSan in a similar position in their room at Maheshwari house! ๐Ÿ˜ณ Glad you liked the romance, and that blasted pillow wall getting thoroughly dismantled! I am so, so very happy that you liked the blend of suspense and romance I attempted here.

I was actually having chills running down my spine when I wrote the Lakshya--Swara confrontation in the end, so am sadistically happy ๐Ÿ˜› to hear you felt reading it gave you chills!

Since you gave me such a lovely compliment in French, I want to respond in kind, by saying, merci beaucoup. ๐Ÿ˜Š

Was very touched by your comment. Thanks again.

hi Viji ,

I loved your TS...read it in morning actually before leaving for college and forgot to comment later...anyways
I loved the combination suspense and romance. It was a TS but everything was flowing so gradually. Their emotions were laid out so beautifully and at the same time the suspense was building right from the start. I was sure it was between laksh and AP
You are attempting this genre for the first time wow! You nailed it...You are so goood
xoxoxo,
Anya



Hey Anya...Thanks so much for that lovely comment yaar. Am very glad that you liked this TS. ๐Ÿ˜Š

I was attempting to write the suspense/ mystery genre for the first time, so I am really happy to hear that you liked the combination of suspense and romance I had portrayed in this piece.

Hi ๐Ÿค— This was simply brilliant!!! Absolutely loved it. Lakshya's madness was brilliantly written. How it all stared with his inferiority complex and grew into this deep rooted hatred.

Annapurna's thoughts on Swasan relationship and her thoughts on Sujatha's relationship with swara was finely blended into the story. Annapurna's character analysis ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿผ

The progression of Swasan's relationship was beautiful and seamless. It was subtle, yet heartwarming. Good that Swara initiated the kiss!! Otherwise our Sanskari Baba would have never come out of his self imposed restrictions and see that she wanted something more than friendship ๐Ÿ˜† His need to protect her from the brewing danger that was about to strike them and their restlessness regarding the same was brilliantly put.

I loved the way you built Lakshya's psycological disorder here. For someone who is as fickle and weak minded as Lakshya, jealousy and inferiority are bound to resurface. In fact, Swara choosing Sanskaar could trigger these hidden issues. Also with the elders accepting Swasan's relationship, Lakshya would take this as a sign of them choosing Sanskaar over him.

I do hope that they would touch upon Kavita's death on the show and also explore the bond between the brothers.

I loved it!!! And thanks for the PM ๐Ÿ˜Š



Hey...๐Ÿค— ๐Ÿค— Thanks so much for that lovely comment. Am very happy that you liked this TS.

In the first part, I had intended to put some suspicion, however small, on AP and Sujata. ๐Ÿ˜Š Just to act as a red herring, to contradict the clues I put in later regarding Lucky.

Glad to know you liked my analysis of AP's character. If you liked it, please do read my "Elements" series, where I have analyzed each character in quite some detail, comparing it to each element. The story arc goes through "Water", "Fire", "Earth" and "Space". The links are there in my index. "Fire" has quite a bit of interpretation of AP's character, the layers and edges to it, the grayness of her nature. Do read when time permits, and tell me if you liked it.

Coming back to this TS, I was very happy to hear that you liked the way SwaSan relationship progressed. ๐Ÿ˜ณ Yeah, I also felt that Sansku Baba is way too Sanskaari ๐Ÿ˜† to break out of the boundaries he has set, on his own. He would wait for a clear enough signal from his lady love. ๐Ÿ˜‰

And thanks so much, for your appreciation of the portrayal of Lakshya's psychotic behavior. I did want to explore, how that intense jealousy and inferiority complex he had regarding Sanskaar's capabilities, could trigger this morbid hatred towards him.

You had me speechless as always and you had me at the edge of my seat until the end! I was reading it on my tab instead of listening to my teacher!

I did not guess it was Lakshya until I reached the third part. You built up the suspense really well.
Your description of the weather at the start was beautiful. I could actually imagine it!
My fav part is obviously the second part when Swara finally gives in to her feelings and SwaSan become one. I loved how the tension in the house made them come closer together. I think that this is what will happen in the show too. The adverse forces will bond SwaSan together!
I loved this TS! Awesome work!
BTW what happened to the SS you mentioned in one of your comments in your previous work? The one that diverges from the show after the Sindhoor scene? Will we get to read it soon?
I can't wait to read your next fic!



Hey dear...Thanks so much for that lovely comment. ๐Ÿค— ๐Ÿค— BTW, please tell me your name, too.

I'm very glad that you liked the suspense part of it, as well as the part dealing with the way Swara & Sanskaar come closer together. I was in SwaSan dreamland when I wrote Chapter 2, so I guess that showed! โ˜บ๏ธ
Your warm words of appreciation assured me that I got this mystery genre fairly right. ๐Ÿค— Thanks very much for that.

This was the SS I was talking about dear. Remember, I said that I was working on an SS that could have 3--4 parts, which diverged from the serial plot after the "fake wedding". (Not the sindhoor scene). This ultimately had 3 parts, so posted it as a TS and not an SS.

I am working on a 2 part OS series at the moment. Its not so intense, intended more as a light hearted Fic, since I need a small break from the intensity of this TS. ๐Ÿ˜‰ I will have the first one up pakka before Diwali. Shall PM you.

there was a time when I was in high school I rememberd nearly all verse of dr iqbal .And these days am reading english translation of faiz Ahmed faiz urdu poetry...the poem I shared is basically the English translation of his famous poem "mein kya likhun"
Again thanks a ton for writing such a masterpiece.
It's a request do write more...I have become too greedy



Thanks again, Samiya for the lovely compliment. ๐Ÿค—

Its amazing that you remember so much poetry so beautifully. Several of your comments have such lovely ones. Anyway, I feel you should write some, too. I'm sure, someone with such a deep knowledge and appreciation of soulful poetry like yourself, would be able to write it, too. ๐Ÿ˜Š When you do decide to write, count me in as the first person lining up to read!

I am just starting work on a couple of OS's dear, thanks for asking. But I want to tell you in advance, will be fairly light hearted ones. ๐Ÿ˜Š I need a break after the intensity of this TS.
