A bit of a wrap up on Wednesday and then I'll focus on writing another offering to serve up come early summer. Thanks for reading along and commenting.

[medora_macd]

A final installment of this arc on Wednesday -- then I'll be away for a bit to work on another offering. Thanks for the encouragement.

Awesome, as expected.

“Another time perhaps.” She scooped up her clutch and headed for the back stairs, but took only one or two steps before a “Beep!” sounded out front. She peered through the front window and gave a weary sigh. She opened the door to the street and waved, catching the attention of her escort for the evening, and then turned and beckoned Andy over with a peremptory hand.

LOVE this. The image, the undercurrent... total feeling / emotion and a touch of forshadowing. LOVE LOVE LOVE.

Love the "horse turd" moment too.

Proud of you. Good to see so many followers of your story. You must be thrilled.

Thank you for continuing w/ the sage for us, Medora. Really a lovely gift.

"I get by with a little help from my friends..." :-) "And a little high" from the continuing feedback. LOL. And yes, it is gratifying to have people following along. Does a great deal to keep the inspiration flowing. I promise to try to keep it up ... and I promise -- if you decided to post a lot of really great stuff it would totally *not* get in the way.

Well at least Miranda kind of knows what's going on, boy, these two like to talk 'around' topics instead of telling the truth don't they? Cassidy has 'anger issues' and Miranda didn't think to mention that to Andy prior to her moving in?

Hopefully they'll get to a point where they can be more honest with each other. I still think the girls should have a better punishment, especially now that Miranda knows.

Loved the scene with Doug and the beets challenge. Injected a nice bit of levity into a fairly angsty scene.

Actually, Miranda did say back during the discussion of the "Deal" that Cassidy had "demons of her own." But I take your point: they're not being totally honest with one another and that will need to change if they're to thrive.

FYI, my mom -- Andy's mom is modeled on her -- once told me we were having "Beet Delight" for dessert. I skipped my serving only to see my sibs drooling over the offering. Turns out it was actually cherry cobbler. Twas Mom's way of trying to teach me not to pre-judge things. Or maybe getting a bigger serving for herself. In any case ... thank her for Battle Beets.

And thank you for commenting. It's wonderful to hear people's reactions.

great chapters! Uhm... So Miranda saw at least a few of those injuries.... And now she's having a date with this... Man? Ugh.. I don't like him, sorry... ^^
I can't wait to read more of your story!! Great update, thank you! (:

[medora_macd]

I'm not sure TerHorst qualifies as a man. Or a date. I'm working that out yet. Thanks for the encouragement.

[lil_sis24]

I hope he won't... lol I really don't like him either way ^-^
I'm looking forward to read more from you! (:

[medora_macd]

I think Miranda feels the same way. :D
