Bikhre moti (Scattered pearls)

Going ahead &Sneak Peek

After thinking twice, here's what we will do about this book - I will keep updating next SSs here only but, I will keep epilogues or series extras for private reads. That way, it will be a fair deal for my regular readers, voters and followers while others can also continue reading without missing any crucial parts. All short stories will be completed here except epilogues or series extras which don't necessarily affect anything except they will be exclusive reads for my regular readers to show my appreciation to them :)

With that, here's a sneak peek for next SS, first chapter will be up sometime next week.

"Saathi (companion)"

"Hum labon se keh na paye unse haal-e-dil kabhi, aur woh samjhe nahi ye khamoshi kya cheez hain (I could never tell her what I felt for her and she never understood what my silence meant)"

Arnav, Khushi and Rohit grew up together. While Rohit always liked Khushi, it was Arnav who managed to win her love. However, his dreams to join Merchant Navy lured him away from her. It was during one of his escapades in the Atlantic Ocean when his ship sunk and everyone including Arnav were assumed dead. 

 4 years later, Khushi is married to Rohit and has tried to move on when she comes face-to-face with Arnav and is shocked to find him alive. How will this affect their lives? How will she choose between Rohit who has selflessly waited for her love despite being married to her and Arnav who seemed to have deliberately distanced himself because he thought she deserved better than a handicap man. Who's important, saathi ya pyar (companion or lover)?

A/N - This is inspired from a true story which had a sad ending but I am going to take creative liberty and make a few changes. Some lose inspirations from the movies 'Cast away' and 'Chaandni' too. Also, I am going to write a spin off of this next, where it's Arnav who was in one-sided love with her but she loved someone else who went missing and she married Arnav. Let's see. too much on my mind right now lol.

Do let me know if you guys want to read this story and your feedbacks.

My followers and regular readers (who voted till chapter 2.3, i didn't keep a track after that) should receive a link for epilogues/extras of previous 2 stories soon. Thank you.
