![]() ![]() ![]() I like this story. The memories and flashbacks added a nice feel to the reading. |
![]() ![]() ![]() very nice! |
![]() ![]() This made me cry so easy. My moms best friend was left by her husband and this is so much like her story. |
![]() ![]() this is just truly beautiful |
![]() ![]() ![]() This is so sweet. I love how you started out with the end and ended with the beginning in a way that wasn't cliched. Like like like! |
![]() ![]() ![]() Woah Woah Woah Woah Woah! This one-shot reminds me of an amazing yet heart-breaking song- You Don't Know Me - by Michael Buble...ok it may not be by Michael Buble but is sounds best in his chocolaty voice :] Great job on the story! It's so vivid that everyhthing...I don't know it was like a 2-minute movie unraveling in my head! It was great. And I love how the end is a new beginning and that the beginning is the end yet also a beginning...it's twisted and awesome- give a whole new meaning to 'and the last shall be first, and the first shall be last' :D |
![]() ![]() ![]() I was getting confused and read some of the reviews to understand...you are pure genius, the story really touched my heart. |
![]() ![]() ![]() This was the only story that ever made me cry. EVER. And in front of my mother, too (imagine what her face was like when she saw tears streaming down my eyes). I think it would have been helpful to put a line break between "and he wonders if he is still dreaming" and "it is raining the day he leaves her". The latter is supposed to be the start of Riley's POV, right? I liked the way this flowed, though. Forgive me for being dramatic, but it felt like the ripples you feel when you are standing far from the shore in the ocean... :) |
![]() ![]() ![]() That was so beautifully written. I love your way with words. You made me fall in love with your characters. The story itself was heartbreaking. I thought the way you reversed their meetings at the beginning and end was very very clever. It was thought provoking and kinda inspiring as well! I wish Ethan had had the strength to stay. I wish you'd write a little more and give them their happy ending...or at least fill us in on the years in between, in a 2nd chapter... But maybe that might ruin it. Either way I definitely cried a bit. Lovely work. I love your writing. PLEASE UPDATE TMAC! :) |
![]() ![]() you made me cry! :( |
![]() ![]() ![]() poetry in form of prose, that was my first thought... this story was tragic and cruel, but still amazing... |
![]() ![]() ![]() A bit confusing sometimes :s but liked it! :D my favorite part was the two reversed "meetings" at the beginning and at the end |
![]() ![]() ![]() this is breathtakingly sad. fuuu. im fifteen years old right now and if i were to put myself in Riley's shoes, it would have been soooo hard and ugh. i cant describe it. . anyway, this is such a wonderful story. you definitely are a good writer. write mooreee. i'll be waiting. XD |
![]() ![]() ![]() It's so cute! She's so cute. I was horrified when her sister was introduced, like OMG NO D: And I was happy when he saw her again. Personally i'd've probably liked it better if we got to see what happened after they met, but that's a personal satisfaction thing; it works this way, with just a hint and then your imagination does the rest. |
