    Tonight

    I am very thankful for and very much appreciate your trust in me, Gary. Through your comments you let me get a glimpse at what you feel when you read RRS. Since you just started publishing your first story, you know how much it means for an author.Thank you, Gary.

    So true. That's what I wanted to try with this story: people aren't rational beings, they don't do the right thing and they make the same mistake twice or trice, w/e. Watching this from the outside...Wise words, Dave. Thank you.

    I can see you're working extra hours as Jonah's advocate here. I think he very much appreciates this.Yes, what would have happened...now we never know. Thank you, Tim.

  6. I could see everything right before my eyes. It was very emotional and absolutely believable. I can't wait to read more. Good job, Gary!

    Tonight

    "Hey Rick. I'm going over to Sandro's tonight. He said he has finished the collage and invited me for dinner to celebrate. That okay?" My cousin leaned back, crossed his arms in front of him and frowned. "So, the great artist is finally ready to show off his work? After what…?” He made a production out of looking at his watch. “Five weeks? And we’re not invited?” “Um…” He waved his hand about. “If Sandro wasn’t always gallivanting with you all over the island, it would have gone a lot faster.
  8. Thank you Carlos for letting César talk and act like he did. No political correctness and shit, sorry I mean um stuff, but right to the point. I was cheering him on when he talked to Lourdes after their spring break-up. Perfect! So, what's next?

    I missed this.
  10. What can you expect if someone's name is Lourdes? I mean in theory you could expect a lot...
  11. And I am again late to the party, but I get to read three chapters! Wouldn't you like to have your dad react like that? Still, being ripped away from his friends, school and even his bigoted family must be hard. I really liked the Oreos and milk part. Great start, Carlos.
  12. But isn't it always the gardener? Anyway, I have to say...well what Carlos said. But I always liked Fahd, so that's good. And may the next prompts inspire you or something...
  13. Found this again: Live version Or the studio version

    Nope, no Sandro for you. lol Not even Matteo really got why Jonah is so upset. He will explain it to him in the next chapter. Thank you Lisa! For everything.

    Lol, or that. And he can't be charming all the time don't you think? He's stubborn, and impulsive, and trying to do things instead of things being done with him. He needs to muddle through a bit more, give him time and he will be charming again.Sorry for being late with answering to your review. I really appreciate your comments.
  16. Especially if he's a red head. Right? And my Jonah is so far away from Mr. Perfect...he makes the readers yell at me. But that's okay, now I know I did something right.
  17. What's 'schlong'? And I want to thank you. I feel so much better for getting yelled at now, not that I think myself in the same league as the above mentioned. Of course I also know they love my Jonah, deep down in their heart they love him. Even if I'm nurse Ratched now. A perfect world would be so boring.
  18. You're spot on, the descent to reality kicked his world apart too.Well the prayer was a nursery rhyme for me. My great, great aunt let me say it every night. Which also refers to the first poem btw. So I searched the internet for sayings English speaking people know, some I did had already like 'two peas in a pot' and voilà! Thank you for your comment, Irri. I'm glad you like them.

    Well, I guess the dinner has only been part of the reason Jonah took off the necklace. The talk with Matteo, the good bye in the church, there were a lot of small things that led to him doing this.As I said before, it's hard to see Jonah doing this, when you want him to do something else. To be honest, sometimes I think I should change things. But this is Jonah with all his flaws, he has some good things going for him too, at least I hope so. Thank you for reading and commenting, Gary. I really appreciate your thoughts.

    It's always hard to stand nearby without the means to do something, when someone else is seemingly being an idiot. I get that.

    Haha, emote away. I love it. lolAnother detail I slaved over to get it right (with your help, I might add). I'm glad you appreciated it, Cole. Thank you!

    Thank you, dughlas. I saw that little patio right before my eyes. You wouldn't believe how long it took me to describe it adequately. I'm glad you liked that little detail.

    Yep, Rick can be a pest, good thing Matteo has him under control most of the time. So no ranting? Did I do something wrong? As always, you know Jonah too well. Thanks, Tim.
