I just finished the final episode of Niki's Secret (or Niki's Geheim as the show is called in Dutch) and I've got mixed feelings about the outcome. Not as much as to whom Niki picked as her future partner, but I can't put away the feeling that there's more to it.
Right from the beginning, Sabriena was very present and it was totally clear they developed feelings for each other, pretty much from day one. Kjelle on the other hand, "grew" into liking Niki very much and vice versa. I don't know how real and true his feelings are though, and there is no way to find out, but Kjelle seems like the production team candidate to me. Orchestrated and manouvered as the plot thickens and unravels.
The one question that remains for me is this : would the creators of this show dare to alter or direct the outcome to match the moral majority of their audience? I think there is little doubt they must at least have considered the possible feedback and outcry of the viewers for each possible candidate. Is Kjelle really Niki's choice? Going by the episodes and magic I've seen on screen, I'd say it wasn't, and that she would be much better off being a couple with Sabriena.
Ah, well... I'll leave it at that and let everyone think whatever they want about it. I just hope two people end up happier as they were before, because I have to admit it : what do I know about love?
