Sure.
I seem to be attracting those who want to read but do not have the time at the moment ;-)

His anger and bitter words tumble out as a resistance to the need he feels, the desire his mind itches to explore. Khushi though has almost always been stung by the scorpion tail of his temper and her vulnerability and insecurities emerge out when she is around him.
So, why does she love him? And since when? And now I understand that there is no need to fix a time and date.
I want her to be strong. She wants to be strong too, this I learned from the above part, but that's always easier said than done.
These haikus you weave so effortlessly are beautiful and make me wonder if you have ever thought about publishing your work. Till then I am relying on that adage. You know the one which says that the best things in life are for free? :)

I was talking to this friend of mine over the weekend and he claims that it's quite easy to fall in love but extremely difficult and effort consuming to be in love. I think Arnav and Khushi are classic example for this.
I find both of them difficult to write and I partly blame writing on the show for it. Arnav, as you explained, is fairly straightforward but his behavior oscillates between hot and cold on and off which makes the entire situation too dynamic to predict its outcome. Khushi finds herself the receiving end of his mood swings and the primary antagonist for all the argument which arises thus.
I don't know why she loves him. Honestly, she is better of with someone like Akash who is stable, reserved and quiet. He would bring stability to her with his grounded nature and she would elevate his sense of world with her carefree chatter. Its the perfect complementing characteristics but they wouldn't click simply because they don't challenge each other nor push each others buttons just to screw with the others head. That's why Arnav and Khushi are fascinating to watch while Akash and Payal are poster children for sobriety.
Thanks. These are random thoughts which I cannot pen elsewhere :-) Found a place here, that's all. This style of writing or even word usage doesn't attract many. If it cannot generate people to read on this site, I would be a pauper if I were to publish :-)
Originally posted by: StripePurpleThe first thing which attracted me to this was the description at the beginning- glimpses of a life passed. That is a very interesting perspective. :)
1. He doesn't like mornings, or the harsh light they bring. And she is like a shooting star. He is diabetic, and she is effortlessly sweet. If you were trying a bit of character-building with this one (always tricky in the murky fan-fiction world), you have done it very well in very few words. It's as if the warmth of family which he had lost, he gets vicariously through her.2. I have a thing for fairytales and this was a particularly sad one. So many betrayals couched in silence, rooted in hopeless love. You said it all in the very first line. Beautiful read, that was.3. Sensual, scenic. Both of them bound together by the magic of a moment- he refuses to give her the assurance of words, certain of the temporality of it, while she sees her own destiny and spins dreams around it. And so many other things. Loved reading this one.4. Ah, this was heartbreaking. More than Betrayal. Khushi's loneliness is never apparent; she pretends to have friends and makes do with fireflies to chase darkness away. She is that strong. Yet, he has made her weak. She knows it, is helpless against it, and longs for what she thinks is not for her. I really want to give this girl a hug.Just in case you haven't figured it out by now, you have a fan here. :)
