So true. Sometimes life is much more complicated. Our heroine thinks in black and white. She’s had enough pain in her life to know what is not being said. Her body felt it first yes.
This wonderful romantic story became so deep in this part. It really expresses an understanding of what lies beneath what both men and women call love. It officially became a profound examination of motives. Am so impressed with your work here, Dorie and Mark!! I can't wait to see where you take it and I'm afraid at the same time. I don't want Tens to get hurt. You really got me emotionally invested.
Thank you Alicia! This comment made my day! Thank you for your thoughtful and deep reading of this story! It’s very layered yes, it’s a definite examination of the differences in the idea of love, safety, respect, and stability. I honestly couldn’t made done this without Mark! He is the best writing partner.
You are more than the camera man. You edited and helped fix the rough parts. Your pictures helped me to bring this story to life. Could not have done it without you! I mean that sincerely.
The folded blue paper... I hate when an object enters the room looking all polite and official, and suddenly everyone’s love has to empty its pockets on the balcony...
Yes exactly, the official object which silences the room. Unfortunately it’s just a passing guest here. The real deal breaker is something less tangible, not easily seen and more devastating than greed.
That movie broke me so hard. Read The Spy Who Loved on Christine Granville's time as the first female British Majesty's Secret Service agent. She's heart-stoppingly beautiful and clearly the impetus for Marion Cotillard's British side. Wonderful work complimenting the image, as ever. Keep on, you two crazy kids. <5
Sometimes it's not the complications; it's the decision. One decision leads to another dilemma, and before you know it, a whole bowl of cherries with pits appears.
Oh , the barriers that people erect for fear of an imaginary or imagined pain not guaranteed. Oh ,will he won’t he? Will she break down his walls and save him and grown into herself in the process????
Beautiful I love the interaction back-and-forth and it walks you down the emotional little roller coaster in both of them. It’s pretty cool. I like it.
Especially being in hermit mode for so long because it was as if I around somebody else except my cat Gabby
Thank you! It is a rollercoaster for both of them. Also Hello hermit, I am one too! But I have two cats and three children at home. Hermit mode is the best mode when life is too complicated.
Hortense is deciding what to do. She wants to love him. Will he let her?
Sometimes, life isn’t as easy as that!

Perfectly said! Her body knows what to do. She told me so a few years ago ;)
I really like the way that the dilemma and both of their thoughts and interpretations played out.
I'm really enjoying this and looking forward to the next part.
Thank you Gary! One part to go. I’ve been immersed in this world of theirs for about two weeks. It’s been quite a ride. Thank you so much for reading!

Such a wonderful reading Alicia. So pleased the piece let you step into it more than a plotline, and into something deeper.
I’m just a camera man here, so I’ll let Dorie reply in more detail.
So pleased to have you along for the journey!

Truth Paul absolute truth

Yes absolutely! that fear ruins some of the most beautiful things and complicates life.
