I don't think Ahmet means it would be worse for just Matt. Why would he care about warning Matt if there wasnt something "in it" for Ahmet? Then again, in this strange world who knows what Ahmet's thought processes are and why?
Love the conversation between Robert and Doreen. Its obvious they love each other and son, (both of their children no doubt) very much. It makes one believe everything will be all right come what may.
This story has a nice, easy flow to it, and is absolutely perfect for a binge read. The characters are likable and the storyline itself is captivating.
Read it, you wont regret it.
👍👍
Robert’s please at the end was a bit of a gut punch as a soldier he knows about going off to face the unknown - or at least the outcome of the unknown - so I’m sure he is really feeling great unease watching Andrew’s disappear into tje darkness.
In case I didn’t mention this during my beta read, I will tell you now that I really like the way you’ve portrayed Andrew’s parents. They are both lovely, and Robert’s fierceness when it comes to looking out for Andrew is just the best in my opinion.
Nothing interesting for me unless you count taking a bunch of stuff for a special drop off recycling day in my city. That will be tomorrow morning as long as it’s not raining, that is.
