Well, those verses sure brought back memories of teaching The Brook' to a bunch of disinterested teenagers! The line about Arnav and Khushi being lovers who didn't as yet know that they were in love and destined to be together was quite moving. Arnav trying to be strong for Khushi while his own heart was breaking was heart-wrenching. The evolving relationship is well-etched. He laying claim to a newborn Khushi and then, as he grew older, having conflicted feelings about her following him is very realistic. Arnav hiding his pain from her, I believe, is a mistake because he isn't letting himself grieve and is only bottling up all his anger within himself... having to be there for her may result in him finally resenting her dependence on him. Poor Khushi, unrequited love is a difficult burden to bear, especially when one has to hide one's feelings. Can't fault Khushi for revealing her true feelings for Arnav... that's better than living with regrets... sadly for her, he couldn't deal with his hitherto unknown feelings for her and his fear of losing whatever family he has left. He vowing to fulfil his promise to bring her happiness and give her everything she needs is ironical " he is unwilling to give himself to her and he is the only thing she needs. Arnav realising that all his material wealth held no value for him now that he no longer has Khushi is a poignant moment, especially as he is afraid that he has lost her for good. He accepting that he loves and wants only her and she running into his arms, with the love shining in her eyes and his foolishness forgiven is a heart-warming conclusion.
