I can't imagine the kind of emotional turmoil that Vivaan must be going through. Clearly, he sensed that he's falling for Riha... that he's on the brink of falling head over heels for her... but he forced himself to stop in his tracks because he's scared. Scared that his "wretched" luck might endanger her too. That's something he cannot tolerate, something happening to her! He'd rather stand in the distance and watch her, feel her, all the while burning within... that he cannot get closer. Oh. The agony is inexplicable. He's dying to open himself up, to let it rush out of him and ease the pain, but again, he is scared of sympathy... scared of that person getting closer to him for any reason whatsoever. What kind of existence would that be... an existence without love?
On the other hand, Riha has stopped dead at a wall. A protective wall built by Vivaan, just like he had built for all others. Probably not to protect himself alone, but for the other as well. But is that really helping him? And no matter how positive we might be, we have always ended up breaking down at some point or other... and there's someone like Riha's mother to make us see through, to give us that boost to pick ourselves up.
I so loved the picture. It's a funny still from the movie, but you have crafted a different world out of it. Sometimes I feel that it is this scene (in an emotional way) that is the essence of this story. Believe it or not, we all need a shoulder to lean on.
I am so looking forward to know how their relationship will progress. Since Vivaan finally opened up to Riha... (I'm sure he didn't really want to, he probably couldn't stand it anymore) and even broke down in front of her... will he ease up and take her shoulder (or lap) or will he grow cold and distance himself even further?
And somewhere I'd seen you mention that you love to "scribble". I mean... seriously... scribble? Girl, this story is deep. This ain't no scribbling. ⭐️
