I am glad you like it.

Oh, wow. This is gorgeous, and the last line! An utter gutpunch!

I am not entirely happy with it, actually, because it feels a little bit like that sort of story which ends with the woman Happy and Fulfilled because she has completed her Maternal Duty --

And Adeline doesn't work that way. So it isn't that sort of story, but on a casual read it *looks* that way.

But I am glad that you liked it, because if you do it does not look quite that much that way as I was worried it did.

Maybe it's because I know you, and I know Adeline, but no, it's not that kind of story at all.

Maybe it's just because you can write. :)
