The updates were awesome
& thanks for the PMs π
Chapter 2
The way you picturized
Khushi's character is really fantastic - a little girl over excited to share
all the facts about her new friend & about his family, trying to figure out
as to why none believed her, firm to only speak the truth as her parents had
told her & thinking that her parents in heaven would be dejected to see her
lying, rushing with hope that her Babuji was always there to listen out to her
but shattered into a million pieces after witnessing the convo that transpired
between her Amma & Babuji who were discussing about finding her some help
as she was creating imaginary stuff & then waiting for the nightfall for
her friend π
Oooh...poor girl she not even wanting to check if the door had her friend's initials on it though she had unshaken belief in Arnav's words, then looking for it restlessly & almost disheartened but alas happy to see his initials for real yet sure that none of her family members would believe her point & deciding to hold back her anxiety was well framed throwing light on how a little girl's mind & heart would have felt troubled when everyone around her confused her more & all the efforts she took to understand whether she was right or not
Liked the way you portrayed the other characters also - Payal freaking out thinking that her sister had met a ghost, Garima thinking that Khushi had just imagined something out of excitement & the things lying around in the mahal, just like anyone would first think ... but still I guess she could have been a little easy on a girl of nine though Khushi sounded totally unbelievable & made her to understand
The fact that Khushi
didn't mourn over her parents death sounded sad but still was wondering why she
didn't cry π²
Khushi relieved as
well as glad on seeing Arnav standing before her though his voice sounded
strained, hugging him & happy to feel the warmth that proved him real,
Arnav telling her how he searched for
her the whole day then they both trying to figure out who was real leading Khushi
to go to the library where she was shocked to find the portrait, she laid her
head against finding solace in the daytime, gone missing & then the answer
to the mystery dawning to her that the time each lived in was the barrier of
belief
The part where you
narrated how Khushi noticed all the paintings in the library but got pulled
towards the last painting & she feeling soulful while resting her little
frame over the painting & having a peculiar feeling as if she knew the
person in that picture was astounding ππΌ
Chapter 3
Must say, Wonderful
update ... it was thrilling especially the part where Garima sighs in relief on
finding both her daughters safe & fast asleep ... but here my head was
bubbling with questions of howz that possible ... don't we physically as well
move back in time while journeying through the time machine???... or do we
seem to be present physically in the present world also??? - no not
possible...??? It was lovely reading this chapter ... enjoyed it π
The update starting off with Arnav not being able to take in the fact that Khushi just revealed to him about he being in a world nearly 100 years back & on the other hand Khushi gathering herself in taking efforts in getting some expression of belief to atleast shadow Arnav's face was awesome
The little boy trying to protect his friend from his world while
Khushi finding her source of safety behind Arnav clutching onto his shirt, then
Khushi jumping around the old man after her rounds of checking to see that she
wasn't visible to anyone else other than her friend, which literally threw
Arnav back in shock was awesomely narrated π
The little argument about her being real or not which ended up in pearls of tears rolling down her eyes shaking Arnav's heart & her sobs piercing him & his soothing reply"...but you're real to me..."was lovely
Khushi finding it odd at the thought that there was another girl sleeping beside her which didn't show up even a teeny bit in the case of Arnav as well as Khushi holding onto books & other proofs of the century she belonged to were amazing scenes
Arnav's line where he portrayed his worry of how hard it felt to
know that eventually everything would fade away moved me
Oh how sweet, Khushi working so hard to make Sheesh Mahal live after hearing Arnav's statement etching only & only worry of everything fading away... just for him'
Was wondering if Arnav would be able to enter Khushis time if the feather could come into Garima's eyesight...???
Both closing each other's ears so that the other would sleep in
peace was such a beautiful scene & their dialogues were soul touching π€
Love to read more
Waiting...
When will you update...
update soon na...π
PMs on their way.
Precap:

Questions this time: What moment stood out to you most this chapter? What does the engraving, like the feather, prove?
Here's a part of the timeline I made for FL to keep it all straight, I'll be adding to it.
