How badly people can treat each other comes through clearly in this chapter though it doesn't drop into the maudlin. The 'play' of the misunderstandings and how they cross over each other so easily and set the stage for a variety of problems to come fascinates me. I think them very cleverly done, especially as you include the sadness of difficult lives and humor such as petulantly objecting to being treated like a child.
For all of you to interweave the story across characters as well as chapters is a treat for the reader. I'm terribly impressed by it as it requires imagination, skill, and coordination.
I've been missing this tale and while I hope to catch up on my reading I think that I may be stuck in 'behind mode' for a long while. Which is my little preamble for apologizing for not leaving comments.
Thank you so much! We have missed your insightful comments! It is such a joy to know what we've written and intended comes across. *hugs you tight*
As for 'behind mode', yes, RL has been smacking all of us around lately. Catch up and pop in as you can, and we always welcome your thoughts no matter when you can get around to reading.
