I cannot tell you how much I love this story of yours.

SPROING!

You got the feeling of my characters perfectly! The sacrifices-not-needed love, the love-means-never-having-to-say-sorry-about-little-pranks love. The weathered, aged, still-alive-and-randy love.

Betrayals born of twisted love. Reprimands and repercussions. Current events. Triumph and retribution at an advanced age. All woven into a fairy tale. Fabulous!

Thank you so very much for contributing to my story. I feel it has been made more real, having sproinged from such a fertile and deeply loving imagination as yours.
