AbhIya- Pancchi & the jerk : Of Love & Shame.
Hi there!
Okay, now. Why in the world does Abhay have to be such a softie? It is like you can get away with even murdering him ( not that it is possible unless you have a smexy vampire slayer in town ) …or maybe only Piya can. Whatever Piya did with Abhay was insensitive and a crime against emotion and trust , if you think objectively. You and I would actually go and murder the person who pokes into our open wounds. But Abhay is well, just Abhay – a monster more human than a 100 human beings put together.
What pain did Abhay give Piya in return for the emotional foolishness that she did? He kidnapped her , took her to a vampires' hub which is of course not in use anymore as we found out today – scolded her , rejected her and taught her a lesson by leaving her all alone there. Harsh enough? I think not. But he achieved the desired effect – he got the message across to Piya and this time, I will like to believe that she got it.
Piya's wish before she dozed off to sleep was that Abhay comes back to her. He did. I don't think Piya has seen a more beautiful sight or rather a more wishful sight. She opened her eyes in that cold and hostile place and there he was. Looking at her. Waiting for her to wake up. Piya was ecstatic – no grumbling , no complains , no lashing out that he had scared her to death and left her in this haunted place. She was just happy that Abhay had come back. How and why , she didn't care. But Abhay was in control of himself. He knew what he had to say and what Piya had to understood. He calmly told her that he is not all that evil as he appears to be. He didn't threaten her or scare her or chanted his signature " Mujhse door raho" – Like a composed and mature man , he requested her to forget all about Maithli and just remember this much that she is Abhay's obsession . To stop trying to find out about him and his past because he has no answers for her. In a way, Abhay told her that he is a dead end. But no, Piya doesn't understand. She doesn't want to understand. While Abhay was trying to drill sense into her head in the sweetest way possible, her mind was on another trip. She conveyed to him through her thoughts that her life is joined with his – that he is her beginning and end no matter what the future – and she wants to share her past , present and future with him…..And Abhay caught her thoughts. "I have nothing to share with you." –He , like always, threw it in her face , but this time gently. No more questions and no more answers. Taking her hand, he led her out of the darkness and haunt of the vampire cave.
But then, there have been so many 'decisive' and 'definite' fights, arguments and discussions between AbhIya. Everytime they think that okay, this is with finality – we are done with each-other. Does it work? No.Because the connection between them neither lets them live with each-other nor without each-other.
Piya saw Abhay in college , later in the day. He was at a distance , passing by and she stopped. It's not something that she can control. Abhay , too, stopped in his tracks – sensing that he was being watched. He took a few steps back and looked in the direction of eyes that were watching him. Piya. Piya was looking at him – trying to decipher him, understand him, look beyond the walls – something that she has been trying to do ever since she first set her eyes on him. They both kept looking at each-other , thinking over ll the good and bad blood that had passed between them in the past 24 hours. Piya looked at Abhay as the one she loves and waits for , no matter how much he hurts or hates her. Abhay looked at a girl he didn't love but was uncannily attached to and thought of all the hurt that he had caused her in his anger. Piya walked away and Abhay , tugged at his non-existent heart followed her to apologize her and make her feel better – make himself feel better.
I guess Abhay-Piya are the most studious students of Mount College. Koi aur class mein ho ya na ho , ye dono sabse pehle pahonch jaate hain . Padhaai? What padhaai? Who does padhaai in college ?
Anyway, Abhay-Piya love locking each-other in rooms. Or rather getting locked with each-other, hmmmm? Abhay went into the classroom and spotting her alone, he thought it the right time to say sorry to her and get back on good terms. Lest she gets scared of him and runs away after the 7 star treatment that he gave her last night , he latched the door. Piya , no matter , how brave she is , she does get intimidated by Abhay's persona and moods a whole lot of times. With no idea that what was on Abhay's mind , she backed away from him. Abhay could see that she was scared of him. He said nothing and just blocked her on the wall. Without any drama , or long sweeping sentimental statements , he told her in the most simple manner that he was sorry . Sorry about what he did to her and the hurtful things he said to her. It was a sentimental moment for both . Piya , because she loves him . Abhay , because he is attached to her and she is the only beautiful thing in his abyss like life. Guilt-ridden and emotionally provoked, on a closer look, when he saw the bruises that Piya had got in his rough handling of her – the soft and kind man in him stepped forward and kissed Piya's bruises away. The marks, the pain was gone and no , an ensnared and swept away Piya asked nothing. She is aware now that he is supertnatural and he has healing abilities – but nah! At that point , she was not thinking anything – she was just feeling Abhay's touch on her.
Moved by Piya's proximity and warmth , Abhay was swayed for a few seconds – he almost kissed her and Piya , well, has no confusion on her feelings and that is why she gets swept away faster. But he got his senses back in time. With a 'what the 'F' –ing hell am I doing' expression, he drew back. No apologies, no discomfort , no embarrassment – just a realization. And as a signature , Abhay-Piya moment, like always, Abhay walked away from Piya. Piya? Vulnerable, hurt and her heartbeat still out of place could do nothing except see him leave her. Like always.
And WHOA! Pancchi has a new project and the way he has dropped into her life is like VULGAR-SCANDALIZING –SHAMELESS but hey! Admit it. The shameless man has shameless charm. Imagine, driving down a road and being forced to give a lift to a good-looking jerk who is not even in his full clothes and is telling you about his rendezvous with a married woman! GRRRRRRRRRRRRR! Am glad Pancchi gave him a royal bashing and threw him out of the car. But alas! Haaye ri kismet. Madam comes on her job and sees the same hedonist jerk giving her orders. Poor Birdie! Moral V/s. Ultra Immoral. Should be an interesting watch. I think the article that we got on Shauyra and Siddharth's entry had some facts wrong or maybe the characterization and storyline has been changed a wee bit.
The newbie has his first scenes with Pancchi and she is his employee as well. I think this pairing will work because they have spark. A morally strong and fiery socialite pitched against an immoral business magnet. But hey, at the first go, the guy doesn't appear evil as the article said. He just appears grey to me even if he turns out to be Abhay's brother.
Lastly, I think Chaand and Haseena's decision is right and natural. Piya is close to the truth , so Chaand has no option but to take a practical decision. Abhay should keep his mouth shut in this regard because half the problems that his clan is facing are because of his and Piya's emotional foolishness. Now, let's see how the Raichands are forced to return to Dehradun later.
Oh and what is up with our Misha? It seems she is more excited about Abhay-Piya getting up, close and personal than they themselves. The chick is surely changing . Thanks to Shaw.
P.S- The music piece that they played for AbhIya after Abhay drew away from the kiss and left Piya was first composed and used for Prem-Mukti ( a terrible love story with a fatal spark to it that drew everyone in KZK) . It was supposed to be dark, angry and passionate and till date , it has the same effect. AbhIya , of course are much darker than PM. And ironically the song " Bepanaah pyaar hai aa jaa" ( Film : Krishna Cottage) is perfect from Piya's POV. Even in the film, the song was made for a character – a ghost – who was waiting across time for her love to come back to her as promised. It is a sad song and full of yearning.
Love and luck always,❤️
GOD bless everyone. 🤗
