Well, that's unfortunate ...

Thanks @David Santos. In the original version I had done the back and forth a few times, but I tried to take it out as much as possible in this version because I know it can get confusing. That said, I did keep in a few places, because I thought it helped with pacing. But good to keep in mind if/when I return to writing.

Yep. Thanks @starboardtack :)

@Marius @Richjeff @ryan8inch Thank You! I’m formulating some ideas. I’ll see if any take hold.

Thank you! And for all of your support, and your comments along the way! I'll try

I wanted to leave it vague so that you, the reader, could fill in the blanks as you see fit

Thank You I'm both sad and happy it is over. Sad that a project I've worked on for so long is done, but also happy that it's done and so well received! Phew!

Yes, Aiden and Jenn is a bit too perfect -- but I was allowed one cliche ending, right? And I thought they really would be great together. I love Jenn's character, which is why I gave her the last spoken words in the story -- which were very true to her character Thank you for all of your kind comments and support!

Thank You! For staying with the story all these years. I thought about adding a bit of Jordan in the Epilogue, but I kind of like how I ended off with him in the previous chapter, especially his last line of being "home" with Noah -- I thought that was fitting for him. Thanks also for the review! 😎

A mix of all that. Busy with school, his mom, plus Canada is a huge country. And flying from Toronto to Vancouver is not cheap! Domestic flights in this country and way too expensive. Thanks for all of your comments!

Thank You!

I think you’re the only person who likes Noah’s mom! But yes, you need a good villain. Remember Sebastian? 😎 Thank You!

So, I wrote a short story a while ago (it’s just a couple of chapters. More of a mystery story). It needs to be polished just a bit. I may post that here, though I’m not too sure. After today, I’ll be quite swamped with work until probably at least June, which is why I was trying to get this all wrapped up. I didn’t want to leave it hanging. If if I do write another novel type story, I’ve learned my lesson from last time - I’m only posting once I’m done. The original version of this took 6 years and I pissed off quite a few readers. Not doing that again!

Thank You! They may live in Toronto, but they represent the many wonderful places in this country. 😏 Families - you love them, and hate them sometimes. They are complex!

Thank you so much
