Well..I'm not sure about others, but I had been waiting for the story to end.....only because I wanted to find out how it ends and not because the length of the story got into me :)
Anyway, with that sorted out; I feel it was a interesting read...I'd read your story any day and time not only because it is dichotomous by which I mean all the characters (males or females) get a fair shot of wearing blemished/ unblemished hats of character, but also because it is not superficial.....Not sure if I make sense, but I sincerely hope I do..
"She saw it as a journey all must take where happiness and sorrow were just bends in the road to be maneuvered around"---So true!!
Unlike others I found chapter 6 (prior to reading the concluding chapter) a bit dry and chewy in spite of all the turmoil in Deepti and Uday's married life ..If it was a Hindi/Nepali sitcom, chapter 6 would've without doubt been a food for gossip for the women of the neighborhood...like Mihir 's come back from coma. (realistic? I don't think so!!)..in Kahani Ghar Gharki Ki...not that you'd know of this...but FYI ..it was big HIT ...
The point I am trying to make is--chapter 7 brings out better shades of chapter 6 (for me)..
Overall, definately a long read and definately with a lot of long PAUSES...but at the end of the day...it was worth all that wait..(and mind you..I'm not a very patient person) so kudos to your laborous hours of story writing..I really appreciate it..
Happy Summer!!
