Ah, lovely, lovely. (There's a lot of crying, in this one, isn't there? Or mentions of wanting to cry?)

The dialogue is so pretty. The language is pretty. The imagery is pretty. The sentences hit you hard. Everything is so subtle and so beautiful.

I found one error in the first sentence. "His brush is his..."

Wow, I just wanted to tell you that I think your story, Henna, was just, well. . . beautiful! You are a great writer!
