@Tony S..you have definitely brought a deeper understanding of depression, PTSD, and grief. While I personally have not had to endure these horrible afflictions I have known others who have and they are certainly debilitating in the worst way. If only one person was brought into the light by this story you have succeeded but I am sure that many more than one have benefited from it. You have brought this information to people in a most entertaining and enjoyable way. Living with Kent these past weeks has been very revealing. Thank you again for this presentation you have provided for our entertainment along with the many other stories along the way. You're an excellent writer and the fact that don't rely on page after page of raw sex and sloppy unroofed writing to get your point across, makes it all the better.

Kent can finally commit. This is a big step in his life, in his mind, and in his future. I would love to see this story go on much longer but I suspect you're about to wrap it up which, in a way, is a shame. In the very beginning I wasn't sure where you were going with this but it is now part of my life and I look forward to each episode. @Tony S., thank you again for this wonderful story.

Kent has found his starting point. He is ready to move on and hopefully he will fully engage with Marvin and Devon. @Tony S., you continue to do a wonderful job with the plot. You handled the turning point in Kent's life beautifully. Once again, thank you so much for this wonderful story and the entertainment it provides.

When has a writer ever transferred pain to the reader better than you did..............NEVER! Your writing is unbelievable @Tony S.. This and the last story you've written, "Somewhere Only We Know," have achieved a level of excellence that is seldom seen. Thank you for the most unbelievable presentation I have ever seen on GA. I am speechless. You've taken my breath away with your excellence in writing.

Caught at last! it will take time but Kent finally has the tools to recover and start living again. It will be hard, it will take time, it will take help from others. Kent is stronger now and he will recover. He has people in his life that will make it possible. @Tony S., you have captured Kent's thoughts and his emotions so completely and so accurately. Your writing is so good that we actually live in his head while he is thinking. You literally bring it right to us. We end up feeling Kent's pain. It is so realistic. You are an amazing writer. Thank you for this wonderful contribution to our entertainment.

It appears a future is beginning to form. After being in limbo for so many years following Ken's death, Kent is finally beginning to return to Earth. After so much turmoil, Kent has found his bearings in Marvin as well as Devon. It's good to see him calming down and beginning to enjoy a normal life. Marvin and Devon are both good for him and he for them. @Tony S., another great chapter! Thank you for such a heartfelt plot, well written, cleanly presented, and most enjoyable. You always seem to attack your stories from an unexpected angle that makes them so much more entertaining than the typical run of the mill presentations on GA. Your writing is at a much higher level than most of the authors. I would go further and even say that you are among the top handful that write as well as you do. Thank you again for the entertainment you provide.

LOL, you are an evil man @Dodger. 😁

So much is now settled but now, so much is not settled. The hard part comes with balancing all the different parts that will make Kent's future. In my opinion, I believe Kent's life is in Thailand. Between Marvin and Devon, Kent found a new family one that provides the love and potential for a future of happiness add accomplishment. There's even the possibility of expanding his father's business in Thailand. Let's hope that Kent weighs all the possible options and consults with Marvin and hopefully comes up with a conclusion that keeps them in the life that he has just started which is beginning to work for him................. finally! @Tony S., another great contribution to the ongoing saga of Kent's life. Thank you again for another chapter of a well thought out plot, of well written prose, and providing us with something to think about.

An excellent chapter Dodger. I'm somewhat disappointed that Rory's status with Robbie is still up in the air though. I was sure hoping they'd be back together by now. Interesting development on the cause of the pregnancy and probably not as far fetched as some might assume. Bored rich kids can do pretty strange things to gain attention. I really hate to think about Robbie's baby growing up under the Influence of Don's church. After what we seen of his fellow members It almost sounds like a fate worse than death. Please don't leave me hanging so long in the next chapter as I'm really concerned about Robbie's relationship with Rory. This is a great plot line and if there's anything I can do to assist you in editing or whatever let me know. Thank you and all the best Dodger.

It is nice to see Kent is finally opening up to Marvin. It serves two purposes. It shares the pain plus it brings them closer. Intimate details increase intimacy which Kent really needs. Beautiful writing Tony, as always, Thank you for sharing this wonderful and heartfelt story. You are a marvelous writer and the way you put your thoughts together on paper infers to the reader the characters' emotions so much more and so much more powerfully than just stating the obvious.

Normality for Kent seems to be right around the corner now. It will still take time, it will still take work, but it looks like it's coming. Kent seems to be able to adjust his position in life a little better now. Hard work, therapy, and the medication seem to be achieving results. It appears he can now bring Marvin into his life and position Ken where he needs to be in his memory. Tony, this is a very interesting and quite accurate study of human emotions and you're to be commended for describing and handling it so well. I feel I must thank you profusely for writing such an interesting plot, touching an area that is so unique in this forum, and doing it so well.

Well, Niran has been put in this place. Kent now lives with Peace of Mind and in so doing has enabled Marvin and Devon to go back to their normal lives and relax. What more can one ask as a solution to what appeared to be a severe problem? Hopefully this is it with Niran. Although, one can never tell with people like him. The story continues to be a wonderful study of human nature entertaining us with an intriguing plot that is well thought out and well presented. Thank you Tony for a wonderful story.

One of the saddest endings I've ever seen in a story. I'm heartbroken in spite of the fact that's fiction. I have nothing further to say.

Niran appears to be slipping somewhat. Advantage Kent. Tony, that was a very clever chapter. You are building intrigue in a very unique way making the story all the better. You're doing so well with this and I thank you once again for such brilliant entertainment.

That was a really great story, Lee! Sometimes it is nice to have something a little different and this sure was! Sure glad Russel was able to remain connected. Thanks again for the great entertainment. Looking forward to your next contribution.
