Adultery Love Sex And War Part 1 : Age Of Darkness

[RCF]

Well , I get your point. But Sonarika's stance is there for a reason. Plus not to forget , Sonarika always had that submissive side in her. She became the strong and confident woman she is because of Hemant. 



All opinions are welcome , including yours RCF , appreciate your read

Bro, Do not think I am annoying you again and again, but you are not getting my point, Being submissive in bed and being submissive outside are two different things, One who likes to be submissive in bed and craves rough sex and dominance is totally different, its a state of mind where especially women who are usually dominant outside sometimes feel they desire to relinquish the dominance and not be the decision makers...they choose partners who are dominant than themselves and it bring them relief and satisfaction and they prefer bedroom for this and cannot accept it outside. So we are talking about two different things, My earlier thoughts are Sonarika has always been the dominant one in the relationship with Hemanth..The fact that she went and blasted Sandeep while Hemanth took the beating or the fact that she thought Hemanth did not take right direction in reporting Rafique to Sanjana initially all prove that she is a very strong woman..Such a personality when she makes a choice it usually can be a mistake once but when she makes that choice again then it is not a mistake anymore, It will be a well thought choice made out of necessity and her own feelings sorted out..I feel she did that exactly when she agreed to go to Jabalpur second time, she knew she will be vulnerable there and how she will feel around Vikram but she still made that choice and the dancing in the rain and touch that ignited fire everything was a choice she made not because she forgot about Hemanth then, but because she craved such a life with Hemanth and she never got it, the alpha that she was seeking from her partner never existed in her eyes in her life. That craving was satisfied by being with Vikram and she still craves it so it doesn't make sense to me suddenly she feels she wished Vikram never existed in her life...you are now saying she did this to protect Vikram from Hemanth hence she was not listing the phone or keeping him away from the chaos in her life..but your last chapter portrayed as if this is a mistake...Either Sonarika should feel this a mistake all the time or she should feel its a right choice all the time, not different at different places. She herself agreed with Meghana and other girls when she was seeking the advice that both Vikram and Hemanth satisfy two different Sonarika's with in her and if that is true then both of them cannot be mistakes. She should explain that to Hemanth and make him listen. At least not initially but she has time in hospital or later in the day when she made tea for him...I felt that conversation is totally missing and instead you write as if Hemanth deduced it himself whose mistake it is and how he is part of that mistake...This glorification of Hemanth is what I couldn't take from this story...Very unconventional and not natural. 

Think about it,  when she decided herself that I will confess to Hemanth because he is a good man who deserves better and truth, she should not only confess but explain her state of mind and why she was vulnerable with Vikram, She is always strong woman and usual characteristic arc should at least ask Hemanth to listen to her and give her a chance to listen but she never even says that, she is portrayed as a sinner...I get that, every one here thinks she has sinned Hemanth including me but that is a neutral reader we thinking should be different than the character itself, Here Sonarika should not think that she sinned Hemanth, Her guilt should be confined to only betrayal of their marriage and family but her choice was a right one in failing for Vikram as there is a part of herself which needs Vikram in her life and other part needs Hemanth, she should explain why she took that step...This explanation coming at a later point of time doesn't make sense to me especially since the story went from confession all the way to Divorce in one single chapter so what would be the point in her explaining this to Hemanth later. While Hemanth figuring out where it went wrong all by himself again seemed like another arc for Hemanth where he will be the hero again and again here...Why? 

Man doesn't make sense to me why every time its Hemanth who gets to become the beacon of light for every problem in this story? We should agree that relationships are not strong suit for Hemanth, He is a good father but has been a terrible husband yet he could figure out his problems and self realization came in a day. If you remember when I started reading this story I have mentioned in the beginning that this story was written to give the protagonist the most respect that usually the Heros of other stories do not give them and make them cuckold, I understand that but the respect and glorification that comes after humiliation only gets the most awaited love and affection. The underlying tones of him being a hero on every instance kills the essence of a person growing into a Hero. I guess you are getting my point. I will end my vent here...
