Interesting twist - surprised that his mom was out of the picture if she has this strong a bond / connection with Salem. ... look forward to reading about a happier Salem and seeing how he and Johnny’s relationship develops.
A very different read from the other chapters - it’s nice to get more insights into Johnny’s thoughts. Hope he can pull Salem out of his funk once and for all,
I surly didn’t see that coming. Please tell me we won’t end up with a bun in the oven from their fun filled night?? The last thing Robbie needs is more complications in his life. Although, I can imagine the look on Don’s face, which might be worth it....
Wow! Salem is certainly fighting some demons. I don’t blame Johnny for running away, but can’t help but worry how Salem is going to cope without his influence.
Wow! Great piece of writing and many thanks. I forgive you for making us suffer through all the twists and turns in their relationship before they finally pulled their collective heads out of their butts and made it happen..🙄😁😁.
I sure hope that means Sue put her foot down with Don and he is gone from the house for good, but I have a feeling that it won’t be that easy. I hope Robbie .relaxes and gets to have fun Christmas night...
Hot!!! I’m glad they told the DA to shove that ridiculous plea. It’s nice to see the boys have other piers to hang around and feel comfortable with. —- also a great response from the church - wish that was the norm.
Wow! That scene with the squad showing up had me in tears. To see the support and love come from their friends makes me have hope that each generation continues to grow and learn to be tolerant of others. Great job
The way Liam brought levity to such a dark situation was great. Hopefully his perseverance and Jarren’s Love will be all that Nash needs. I have a feeling that Jarren’s Mom will already have lodging figured out - can’t see her trying to get Jarren back north.
Great story so far - put the self doubt out of your head and keep going. It would be nice to read more about their friends and family as the story continues to develop.
OK as far as dirty dishes go, i’m Guilty. ... but on to the good stuff: you are doing a great job developing their relationship - comes across as so natural. ... and do I see foster parent titles in their future.
Another great chapter with it’s twists and turns. It’s amazing to see Aiden and Heathcliff still so far apart. It seems Aid n’s Younger age and inexperience are not helping him cut through to what is important. I thought for sure Aiden’s mom was going to go after Heathcliff when she met him, but it seems even she is star struck. Can’t wait to see how they work through all their open issues.
I can’t believe that missed this post. Awesome writing and great symbolism. I’ll say it again - I really enjoy reading your poetry and it was needed tonight. Thanks
