I'm going to start a campaign to ask Readeye to give us diagrams(those ones she threatened π) for the proper positions of AKJ, PrKJ, PKJ, PatiKJ, the size if Arti's heart...oh, that's so large there wouldn't be space for anything else would there.
Red, I hadn't thought of Prashant and the Pati Ki Jagah, Arti had before actually. Maybe I wanted to forget that maybe she had a very small space for this space, as they may have been married only a short while. I dint know why, but I have this thought in the back of my mind, which refuses to go away, that those two had to get married as Arti might have gotten pregnant. And weeks later, Prashant turns round and leaves her. This could explain the guilt Shobha has regarding his treatment of Arti. And love they both have for her is her act of caring for them when he abandoned them all.
So, whereas, Yash has lots and lots of space for PKJ, due to the time and actions and behaviour of Arpita and his marriage, Arti, as you said, just kept stocking the dying embers to keep them going in the hope that they would last till she could get Prashant to return with his presence in the form of kindling.
