U have expressed the pain , burden ,turmoil , angush and feeling of world crashing still one has to live in that world only very well. Well written part .

I font know how they are gonna deal with this part in show but i loved your description . U r amazing writer .plz update the next part soon

As always, both a thought provoking and an enjoyable read!

Tibs, Why the title 'Dust storm'? I read your line about Karuna walking away 'unburdened' and that got me thinking how the storm chipped away everything she held close and tight. And all these particles that came undone in this storm have reached far and wide and hasn't left anyone untouched. It has created a haze so strong, that one is bound to lose sight of oneself and become adrift. To come unscathed from this is impossible. You can only emerge anew - and it takes another storm within as strong as this, to settle the dust, to clear the muddle, to wash away the blackness of the soot...

Her settling into the car in the end and how you describe the storm raging outside also stood out to me. How unnatural the rigid stillness in the car is, as compared to the storm raging outside? It is not the silence that we have in the car, it is the stillness... where at some subconscious level, you are acutely aware of all the emotions emanating from you and the other - the desolation, the hurt, the guilt, the disappointment. If you strip away the facade of numbness, the layers of complexity we humans add and let loose the raw emotions within, the stillness would be replaced by something as ferocious as the clash of rain and wind outside!

How profound is it about truth being a shapeshifter! Fact is that Showrya as a child killed her parents. And there are many truths to that fact - it was an accident, he was just a child, the man that child grew up to is a force to reckon with, the choice a mother made saved that child, the blow that he is now dealt with might shrink him to nothing, her parents death remains unavenged and needs the justice it deserves. And in spite of all these truths, the biggest one of it all is that she is irrevocably in love with him! And it isn't one truth she will have to reconcile with, it is each one of these contradictory truths that she will have to come to terms with. What an uphill battle that alone is!

Keep the chapters coming Tibs, I don't think we will settle just for another few! 😊

<font face="Courier New, Courier, mono" size="2">Truth is indeed a shape shifter depending on perception, need & greed. Whether a lie can be perceived as a truth in one's own mind while all alone!!! They say that human mind is one of the biggest mysteries of the universe. Deceiving one's own mind to create a mirage and then perceive that illusion as the ultimate truth - only time will answer!!! I am not at all hopeful, honestly.</font>

<font face="Courier New, Courier, mono" size="2">Earth is selfish. She desperately needs the Rain to contain the raging Fire she is protecting thus far, which she herself is unable to do. She is not bothered whether the Rain will be able to survive in the process of not!!!</font>

<font face="Courier New, Courier, mono" size="2">Regarding the Thunderstorm..</font>

<font face="Courier New, Courier, mono" size="2">It is raging furiously, shattering all the dreams, fantasies. It is just like the pitch darkness which follows once all the lamps are suddenly being extinguished in a palace with a thousand rooms. Seems like some unknown puppeteer is pulling the strings of these mortal lives mercilessly. All the intoxications of those innumerable hopes have been crashed in a single blow. The sighs of despair can be heard everywhere. The sweet music have been overwhelmed by the thunders of the clouds of deception. All the yearnings, all the gains seem to be blunders only.</font>

Chapters 1 and 2 under my belt now.😊

I find it the ultimate irony that as easy as it is for me to push out 3k+ words in a chapter, how woefully inadequate I feel finding the words to properly express how I feel about what I have just read.

For now I will just have to say this is perfection, tibs. Both M and S perspectives are on point. That Mehek is already pondering the circumstances as they would have been from sk pov is so like her character, and Shaurya resorting to the cruel threats all that he can succor the woman and the relation that has saved him, is the SK we know. By any means necessary, he will keep her. Even in Karuna, you have portrayed the plight of a mother under such dire circumstances. I loved all of it and cannot wait where you will take us as the story emerges.

I can only hope cv do half as good of a job with this track that you will...

👏👏

Looking forward to the next update. Make sure to pm me...please😉
