Dear Kavitha/charlotte74,

I am not new to your stories, but this is the first one that I started to follow real-time... having been a late entrant to the Arhi FF world. I can't claim to have a great eye for detail...that said, what cannot be missed in every story that you have penned, is that fact that we see a major prop in the form of the locales. Be it Rajasthan or Uttarakhand or Coorg or Punjab or Udupi now. That in itself is an ode to this beautiful country.

Kizh72 (Priya) and cheers2all (Gauri) recommended this story to me a few weeks ago. A tad bit late in coming here and raising my hand in attendance, but boy, what a journey this has been! My roots belong to the land of your Monsoon Rain and Sea Mist, so this has been an even more exciting find.

I could visualize the lush greens, the back-waters, the coconut trees and the beaches. You even brought into the mix an Engineering college/Institute in that region that many influential folks go to. The only thing I regret not having a first-hand experience of, was the fall in the well... standing next to the macho-Arnav and the delicious world-class coconut chutney that... again, Arnav whipped out. Dakshina Kannada (DK) where people believe in Paathala Loka... and now we got to even see a Bhoota! In the form of weeds :)

Arnav is not going to be happy if he finds out about all the sleuthing going around, behind his back. Will the vulnerable duo embrace each other before that? The mystery element is making me anxious, jittery, and overly excited at the same time. Arnav's reactions to Khushi seem to shout out loud that he may not have been willingly involved with Payal. Was he safe-guarding himself with a namesake-girlfriend just to shoo away the others that were after his social status? He must have had strong reasons to come back to India and even be a part of a disturbing past. Is it just to help his father with the business, or something beyond?

I can visualize a college trip to Maravanthe... where Arnav and Khushi re-create their first dance together. And who knows that might be Arnav's Eureka moment to recognize Khushi. Imagination, some... sigh!😳

Wishing you luck on this journey moving forward. And lots of love,

Vini.

It took me an hour to post my first ever review on IF. And 20 mins to figure out how to respond to your message. 😭

Daiyya ho! I see a long learning curve.

Hey.. been so long since I visited the place of A2B. This year hopefully. 😊

Arnav from Desert Rose recognized Khushi from her eyes ..just eyes..

Why can't this Arnav do so as he had to run away from her for his own sanity ..

Arnav is going to dinner with Rashmi n he tells Khushi like he wanna explain it to her..

How sweet..

I wonder what will be his own reaction when he'llsee hushi with Rishabh..

This irritating guy ...no ... the Snakewa is not goingto take a NO as a NO that easily ..

Khushi can't ignore the impending secrets of Payal's death..

Perhaps she doesn't want to talk about it to Arnav but the situation is causing discomfort n guilt to her..

First things first! A description like that deserves this -

The Rabba-ve moment was goosebump-inducing. Damn the phone call. Show mein Aman and here it's Rashmi. I want to tell Khushi, the almost-kiss wasn't something she imagined and the attraction is very real. In fact, it is absolutely and 100% reciprocated. But something is holding Raizada back. Not sure what. Arnav may have walked away nonchalantly, but he is definitely affected as much as Khushi, if not more. Looks like it is a little more than just attraction for Arnav. A trip to the salon or no-trip to the bar isn't for nothing.

For Khushi, Arnav is forbidden fruit. Is it because he was Payal's ex? Or because he could be related to her death? Or both? Her plan to nip it in the bud seems half-hearted. Moreover, if she does try to avoid Raizada, it doesn't look like he will play along.

Rishabh has sown another seed of doubt in her mind. But she clearly trusts Arnav over him. Rishabh is not going to leave Khushi alone. I have a feeling he will be back very soon. I would love to see Arnav's reaction when he see Rishabh's overbearing self around Khushi.

P.S. - Thanks for the bike ride. Khushi ka pata nahi, but I was definitely blushing
