1. Arnav trying to take off the tie- imagine what the driver would have thought 😆 I like how nervous he is! Such a contrast to the usual ASR 😆 All because of his girlfriend's parents.

2. His comment about paying attention to the goofy guy instead of making out with Khushi. LOLOL. Poor Arnav 😆

3. I really like the initial awkwardness- so on point.

4. Also, I totally have this image of Garima in my mind and it matched perfectly.

5. I really like Arnav noticing the looks exchanged between Khushi's parents. It's kind of reflective of him and Khushi too, in a way.

6. Awwwh, I LOVE their conversation about Khushi. People bond over so many things, and mutual relationships are one of them- I like how they exchange stories, and how Arnav realizes how close she and her parents are.

7. LOVE the shaadi conversation- I like how Arnav brings it up, but even more, I like how her father responds. You can really see how much he loves his daughter through this conversation- I like the guilt aspect too, because it seems like such a real emotion. And you know, you do real really well. Ha! Look! There's real and really right next to each other. That's kind of cool.

8. Also: transition from Khushi's parents --> Uncle and Aunty. A+. So smooth!

9. I really like how he just misses her randomly. When he's busy, when he isn't busy- he has these moments that's like "I wish she was here", and it's so honest and adorable.

10. I love how he's staying with her parents.

11. The phone conversation that happens in the middle of the night (whattay coincidence 😆)- Di, you do them so well. Their relationship is absolutely fantastic. "Innocent and pure" 😆 😆 I love this conversation!

12. I LOVE how Arnav just notices things about her. I like how he sees her, and just takes the time to observe her, just take her in. He's just so content being in her presence- and there isn't any interaction needed. And their reunion! Beautiful Di. I liked this a lot.

13. THE ENDING. Oh my god the ending. His emotions are so poignant- you capture them just right! AND THAT ENDING LINE. You and your one liners, you know how I love them.

I hate you for ending on a cliffhanger. AGAIN. Damn you.

Honestly, I think this is one of your best chapters. It takes skill to write convincingly from the perspective of another character entirely, and make it sound natural- and what a change from the last one. I like how he's so confident of his feelings, of his relationship with her.

Kickass, as always.

Hamesha,

After Arnav's long absence, it was more than a welcome surprise to get an update in Arnav's POV, and such a long one at that was even better😊

This update once again reaffirmed what a great guy Arnav really is. Not only is he trying to impress his girlfriend's parents for his own good, but he was so genuine and caring towards the parents that I'm sure every single parent in the world would have consented to the nuptials. I'm looking forward to what this surprise is now!

LOL at the scene of Arnav walking into a crying Khushi's mom and an ambivalent dad - it was truly very endearing to see them all together like that!

I like how you mentioned that Khushi's parents have that one look that speaks volumes to each of them and how Arnav and Khushi have that look. But they also take it one step further as they can sense each others discomfort even while they are away from each other. Khushi had sensed it in previous updates and now Arnav could tell from halfway across the world that something other than just work was bothering Khushi.

Loved the reunion between Arnav and Khushi. It was so long-awaited and although it was short (for us!), it was sweet 😳😆

Now coming to the impending showdown with Sameer - I can't wait for it. I can only hope that Arnav hears Khushi out before jumping to any more conclusions himself.

Overall, it was a lovely update Jigs - I can't wait to read more. And I trust you to make the right decision on whose viewpoint the next chapter will be from😃

A mother's heart is so infinitely tender. Nothing is more important than her child's happiness. The way Garima said "Thank you bitwa" to Arnav, made me all teary eyed. The depth of the gratitude she feels for him, her open hearted acceptance of him, her love and concern for her daughter, all there in those words. And it was very touching the way in which Arnav allayed those fears when she comes up to Khushi's room while he's unpacking the next day.

I love the way you've woven Khushi into their meeting. The way she figures at the forefront of their thoughts, her happiness of utmost importance to them, all three of them. She's there with him in all ways short of physically.

I really liked the way in which you wrote of Shashi opening up to Arnav. His cautious, singed, father's heart going slowly from Arnav to Bitwa. And now with him staying with them, the bond with his Khushi's parents can only get stronger. Great idea! And that part when he walks in to see Garima crying is just too cute.

I'm going totally aww at Arnav missing Khushi. Staring at her photo before sleeping, hayee. The way he's so restless without her, the way he can sense something not quite right with her. BTW, Innocent and Pure Arnav's not the only one stunned by Khushi's boldness! I'm reaching out for the thanda paani Jay had suggested we keep, forgetting all about stuffing the snacks in my mouth. Loved how Arnav cheered her up when she got all emotional.

Jigs, you made me teary eyed once again when Shashi agrees to the proposal. Isn't love and respect all that a parent yearns for? That which they can sense in Arnav. For them. For their Khushi.

What is this plan? I want to know jaldi. But Yay!!! Arnav is back with her. But it's ASR who's back at the office ... Gosh what a way to find out about Sameer. My dil is going all dhak dhak now. It's a fearful thudding though. Ab kya hoga?!

You have written Arnav's thoughts, emotions, his rationales so well that I really feel I understand more about what makes him the person he is. And therefore fall more in love with him. And for the writer who's given him these attributes. Love you hamesha ❤️

Yippee.. me on the same page of update. Arnav's interlude was sure a pleasant surprise and that too a v.long update. Great jigs. The update was awesome. Reading his POV of meeting her parents and ASR nervous about it. 😆. Khushi's parents were v.welcoming and felt happy seeing the bond they are forming. But in the end it was ASR anger?? These men and their anger.. they get angry when they are in love, caring and hurting!! For every emotion first step would be anger!! 😊 hope he cools down soon after hearing out to khushi.. please dont stop like this and continue soon. And to your question both are good but arnav's interlude is so good.
