Tia's Thread

Yesterday I talked about Ishwari. Today I will talk about Bhaiya. You see, if Ishwari reminds me of Velver Glove, Bhaiya reminds me of Boston Ivy. Have you ever seen a Boston Ivy plant?  This is a plant which is very pretty. But otherwise pretty useless.  It can't grow on its own. It needs a wall, a pillar or another tree as support system.  Unlike parasitic plant, Boston Ivy can get its own nourishment. But it can't stand on its own.  So for that reason, no birds or bees ever make a nest on Boston Ivy. This plant can't even stand on its own, which moronic animal will rely on it for lifelong support? Yep, now you are getting where I am going with this. From the beginning of the show, all I wanted from Bhaiya is to grow a personality.  I wanted him to grow out of Mamma's Boy, but never wanted him to be a slave to his wife either. I wanted him to be a real man with his own personality and decision making power. You know, like Jatin and Bijoy.

Ishwari reminds me of Velvet Glove. Just because you wrap a pair of boxing gloves in velvet, it doesn't mean that the punch doesn't hurt. Only the sound is muffled. So you don't think it's threatening, until it hits you. Ishwari was like this before as well. At that time, she hated Sonakshi and pretty much wanted everything arranged around her son as per her specification and thought of Sonakshi as the toy he wanted.  Now she loves Sonakshi. She is still arranging everything around her son as per her specification except this time she thinks Sonakshi is a necessity. In either situation, she is forgetting two people and their right to make their own decision - Dev and Sonakshi. A parent can't always get their child what they want or need. At some point of time, they will have to earn their way.  If Sonakshi is to come back in Dev's life, Ishwari can't earn it for him. He has to earn Sonakshi's trust, love and respect. It's one thing to res
