I am in awe of your writing skills. I can see all of this happening as I read it. You are a truly fabulous writer. Poor Jenny though, I hope she will feel better soon. Cannot wait for your next update. Thank you for writing such a beautiful fanfic!

You never fail to touch me with your writing. Be it the description of Ruben and his love of classical music, Jenny's memories of her grandfather or her own inner turmoil, all are done with such feeling and love. What I always love the most, is that Emma is Jenny's anchor. Her soft gentle touch and warm soul can bring Jenny the calm she so deparately needs. If only she can let Emma in, tell her the doubts and fears she has, so Emma can, hopefully, help begin to put them to rest.

As always...a beautiful chapter and thank you so much for continuing.

You’re welcome, but it was never my intention to leave the story in the middle. I’m really trying to finish it, it’s just taking longer than I planned… Thanks so much for the nice words :)

How could I not write again, when you are so very gracious in your reply and generous with your story.

For what it's worth, I'd like you to know - I recently realised that I have, unconsciously, been a little kinder, in small ways, to some very young and some very elderly people in my life. I felt both embarrassed and pleased when I realised it. I do believe it has stemmed from emotions realised through your stories. It seems ridiculously inadequate but I have no better way to say it so, thank you.

You’re welcome, silly. I’m happy for the Claudias and Rubens in your life. It seems that being kind is already second-nature to you though, if the comments you leave here are anything to go off of… You’re doing well in my book, perfect stranger. :)

This is perfection. For me it's really easy to empathize with Jenny and one of the reasons for that is your exquisite writing. Remember when I said that though I adore the fluffy fics you write here for them, that I would like you to dip into the darker sides, because I think that you could do it well? This is what I was talking about. You describe Jenny's troubles and her helplessness to her in waves coming spells of depression perfectly. I love it and I'm a tiny bit jealous of your skill to do this so well. If you ever wonder if you could write a story or book of your own, I tell you you can! You have the writing skills and I'm not just saying that to boost your ego and get more chapters out of it (;P), but simply because it's true. Please continue your Jemma because I love them.

I think my ego likes you.

Which is just a little bit strange, because the rest of me is kind of shy and unsure how to reply…but this ego you speak of…it kind of wants to put its hands on its hips and puff out its chest and take the world by storm. That is why it is going safely back on the shelf so that I can get back to myself, and say thanks for all of the nice things you wrote. I’m glad you’re enjoying the story. :)

You have no idea how happy I am to see that you have updated. You were starting to make me worried! I have to agree with all the above comments; this update was once again perfection. I'm not sure if I have said it before, but one of the reasons I love this particular story is the realism of it. The way you convey Jenny's depression is neither too over the top or too understated. It's a perfect mix. This, along with your already extraordinary writing ability (when is your novel coming out?) allows me to visualize the whole thing.

Ok, I'm not sure I'm even making sense anymore. So, before I ramble on even more I'll stop. Just know I loved this chapter and can't wait to see what happens next. :)

You’re making sense. Blush-inducing, head-bowing, hand-fidgeting sense. I love that you loved the chapter. For an abundance of reasons, this story is taking me ages to finish, but I’ll get there! Given enough kindness and chocolate, I’m pretty sure anything is possible.

Thanks for leaving such a sweet message. :)
