Thank you. You have raw talent. This story is worthy of being published. Your characters and writing have so much life! I find myself wanting to look up your charachter's name on facebook to see how they are fairing! Just kidding, of course. Please continue your awesome work.

Title: Chapter 14

Vanessa is like that last roach that even a can of Raid won't get rid of,  Why did he bring that trallop to the hospital?  What else needed to be said after he beaugarded the baby's birthday party?  I don't like that heifer and I am glad that she left. They will need discuss her appearance once Olly gets better. Please don't let him die?!



Author's Response:

I can't stop laughing at this one, Pmgayles. A roach? That's cold. Don't worry, Olly isn't dying on my watch.

Title: Chapter 1

Charlie was cool. She handled  the situation just right. I know it made her  angry when she realized she was calling Alec about his son and he's with his ex. I mean how much closure does Vanessa need? Is she special or something? Did she ride on the short bus in school?  Vanessa were with a married man, who after two and half years with you didn't seek a divorce.  Get over him and move on. Vanessa knows she should have called an uber and went home. What is Alec doing?  I just want to know how many bus stops they passed on the way to the hospital that he could have dropped at. Charlie has  to put him or Vanessa in check.  Her child is too ill for that  high school drama. Sometimes when a person (Vanessa) begs for it, you got to go on to the  cabinet and dust off  a can of whup ass.



Author's Response:

Oh Vemo, again. You have no idea! Honestly! That uber and bus stop comments, I can't! How do you do it? Where do you get these lines from? I have never heard of going on to a cabinet to dust off a can of whup ass!!!! Fifteen minutes straight, I laughed for fifteen minutes straight, then got hiccups! As always, you are a joy.

Great update.  That Vanessa is trying to inch her way back in...she's hoping Charlie screws up or something.  I do want olly to be ok, it's so sad, but it's making them a family again.

Thanks Michmom2, and there'll be a nice ending after all this sadness. (at least I think it'll be nice...)

Title: Chapter 1

This one called for box two of the Kleenex...Lord I don't understand how Charlie ever saw herself as weak when she is able to even say hello to Vanessa and offer to get her a drink.  I wouldn't have offered but would have more than willingly planted by size 11 so far up her arse she'd have coughed up toes.  Really who the bloody hell does she think she is.  Charlie has the ring, the license the kids and Alec's balls apparently.  What a wimp, clearing the air.  He should have had the guts and the sense to drop the lowlife bitch at the nearest tube station in route to the hospital.  She didn't have to walk in with him.  It was definitely a play, one HE let her make.  If he says he wants Charlie, pissed off and hurt or not, he should respect her position as his wife.  Never undermine your mate if you want your home to last. 

The shear angst of seeing the life ebb from your child, while your husband can't seem to make up his mind if he really can accept you back into his heart.  Lord I do not know how the woman is holding together.  Waiting by the wi-fi for the next chapter.  Whooray for K (Carr)

 



Author's Response:

Hi Deejay57,

Thanks for your review. Coughing up toes sounds painful as heck! Ha ha. Love how you would drop her off at the closest tube station. Gosh, this is funny as hell.

Title: Chapter 14

Perfect!

 Vanessa still trying.  I could spot her on meeting with him one final time, but to say that she would stay, if he wanted her to...now she needs to be put in her place and it's no where near them. I think she was disrespectful, dressed up to show Alec what he would be missing--glad Jamie didn't  fawn all over her.

 



Author's Response:

Hey Penelope,

Thanks for the review and you saw past Vanessa's game. Of course, you know she had to flaunt it, but she did deserve a bit more from Alec as you rightly pointed out.

Title: Chapter 14

Just when I think this can't get better, you post this chapter. Brilliant.

Vanessa... When Alec says it's nothing, I believe him. He's done nothing so far to indicate that he's a liar. But Vanessa, WTH. Alec has been clear with this trick and yet she still felt the need to "clear the air". Welllll, since the air has been cleared, there should be no reason for her thirsty ass to show her piehole anywhere near Alec and his family.

Her offer to stay at the hospital indicates to me that she continues to think that she has a place in his life. Nah, he has a WIFE who can comfort him. You are dismissed. Girl, get some pride and walk away. You're like one of those hound dogs hanging around the back door hoping for some scraps to be tossed out. GO AWAY.

I so love little Jamie. He will accept Charlie as his mother as she continues to ACT like she's his mother and not the person to give him everything he WANTS, but what he NEEDS.  He tickled me with the "mallow". He is adorable. I feel so bad for him.

This was a really good update, Chica.



Author's Response:

Hi BellaChica,

Thank you for this lovely review, but that 'thirsty ass' and 'piehole' comment had me choking on laughter. I sense you are not here for any of Vanessa's silliness! Jamie is a cutie pie and I do enjoy writing his character a lot. Glad you liked the update.

Wow ... that was pretty intense.  😩  I hope Olly will be ok. As a parent myself, I can't even imagine. One thing that wouldn't sit well with me is Alec turning his phone off to have a private moment with his ex. Why turn the phone off ** giving the side eye** ?!?! 🤔



Author's Response:

Hey Musicluva, 

Thanks for the review and yeah, the switching off mobile thing deserves a serious side eye. I liked how you phrased it 'private moment' nobody wants to hear about a private moment when it concerns an ex! I think Charlie did well there.

That Vanessa is a stank heffa...she is trying to reunite with Alec...Charlie is right to give that woman the side-eye...it was good to see Jamie accepting Charlie as his mom...I liked the approach she took with disciplining Jamie...she is making strides with him...the possibility of losing a child is becoming quite real for this couple...such a sad chapter...well done...looking forward to more...



Author's Response:

Hey Jahchannah,

Thanks for the review. Stank heffa and the side eye, love your description! Charlie is trying her best with Jamie and they're learning each other slowly. More to come and I hope you enjoy it.

Everything inside of me died when Vanessa appeared!! And she had the urge to touch Jaime as if she were his mother or something. Ughhhhh! Don't understand what she still needs to talk to Alec about and I'm also wondering what she would have done if Alec had dropped her off at her place. Little home wrecker she is. shes only a character but I hate her guts smh. I do not trust her and if Alec doesn't kick her to the curb once and for all then she's going to cause problems. 


Hope Olly gets better. I hope he doesn't die 😟 Great update as always!! 



Author's Response:

Hi AmmaWen,

Thank you for the review and sorry about causing your insides some grief with Vanessa (I hope that didn't sound strange?!?!) Don't worry about her though, she can only cause drame if Charlie and Alec allow it and they are focused on their family at this point. Take care.

Girl... you are a blessing Mrs. Carr. Your talent is beyond measure and your way with words are BRILLIANT!!. This chapter pulled on my heartstrings and I put myself in Alec and Charlie's place and I know I wouldn't be as strong as they are. Girl I just loved little Jamie temper tantrum and the way Charlie handle it, girl you know kids will try you but you have to stand your ground with them and Charlie was AWESOME!!. I also loved the way Charlie handle the Vanessa situation. What is really going on with Alec and Vanessa, because Vanessa is still acting like she's part of Alec's life. I know Alec said that there was nothing going on, but I'm still side-eyeing that situation. I hope little Olly be okay and that little Jamie gets so peace, that little boy is going through somethings. Thanks for this update K.



Author's Response:

Hi Jacqua43,

Thank you for such a lovely review. It's a scary thought having to face something similar to what these characters are going through. The people who do so in real life I can only admire for finding that inner strength to face it. I realize everyone is giving side eye at Vanessa! It makes me smile. So glad you're enjoying the story.

Loving this story, even though the realness of it brings me to tears sometimes, especially since it involves a child.

Depression is a hard disease to understand, and it makes the sufferers do some crazy, irrational things, so I am trying to understand where Charlie is coming from, but as a mother is is hard to grasp leaving your kids for 3 years.

Vanessa is so irritating; not sure why she keeps popping up; some folks just can't take a hint, can they...

I love all your work, and this story is no exception; keep up the great work!

p.s. I'm a Man Utd fan myself; is it petty that I was secretly glad they lost their Arsenal season tickets:)



Author's Response:

Hi Amiefuzzy,

This was a great review and I appreciate your outlook on Charlie even though her behaviour is something you couldn't do. As a mother, it's hard even contemplating it to be honest.

Now...I need to address this admission of yours. A Utd fan? Why? Why have you joined the dark side of the force? Or is it a family tradition that has been passed down over the years to side with Ferguson's Red Army...ha ha, well now it's Mourinho's Red Army. All I can say is that: Yes, yes it is petty of you to take joy from the losing of their Arsenal season tickets AND as I say to the two traitorous Utd supporters in my family, I shall say to you- this season will be Arsenal's. You may have taken our FA Cup in May, but we're coming back for it this new season. All silverware will be ours...did that come out as a crazed Gunner's fan rant? If it did, apologies  :)

I'm not sure what your goals are w/this story.  I have read your other work.  The biggest obstacle and why I'll probably not read more is that you've drawn a main character that is unlikeable.  Her suicide attempt was an event and you use it as a defining character trait and then refuse to reveal anything else about her.

Charlie's talent with numbers keep coming up.  I wonder  if she can  work her numbers and make this  three dollars and thirty seven cents I have turn into  some thousands.  Good chapter, enjoyed it so much.  Alec better let her make some  money to put  with that  change he's earning at the restaurant  or else he won't have to worry about who's gonna turn the  bedside light out, because they won't have any electricity.

Sean had to know her son was sick and kept the news away from her.   I hope she asks him face to face.    She can work at the restaurant and do freelance in the area close by.  

She needs to run into Vanessa one last time and this time shut her down, because Vanessa can be nasty and sneaky, but was dead wrong for showing her azz at their house during the party.  I think your Charlie can handle her quietly and quickly.

Jaime will come around, just love him.  She ought to show him pics of when he was a baby and share stories with him---kids love that.



Author's Response:

Hi Penelope,

Vanessa will pop up a couple more times before the story is finished (are you priming for a verbal fisticuffs between the ladies?) and you're right about Jamie coming around. It'll take some time but it will happen. The Sean issue is more about him not notifying Alec when he should have. Sean simply didn't have any contact with Charlie's family (as per her wishes) so he would not have known about Olly's illness. Thanks for reading.

I feel the need to reiterate that Jamie doesn't know Charlie, she took off before he got the chance to know her as mommy.   Charlie has a lot to prove, since she took that runner. The sex was hot and funny,  they still fit. Family counseling would help repair this family.

She does indeed but she is trying. Thanks for reading, pmgayles.

This is a wonderful update K. Charlie just have to try and build that mother-son friendship with Jamie, it's going to be very hard and she will feel like giving up( but she can't ), he don't know her. Maybe she can start by taking him places ( just the two of them ) doing things that he like to do, having a mother-son lunch date, teaching him how to say his prayers( praying together ), reading with him. I know she's scared but in order for them to be a family again all units have to click. Thanks for this update.



Author's Response:

Hi Jacqua43,

Thanks for reading  and you've noted Charlie being scared which is so true. She'll have to work hard to fix what she broke. Hope you enjoy the next chapter.

Good story...I'm giving Charlie the side-eye as Alec's argument about her working for Sean was valid...but Alec's a good man to compromise...Charlie has to deal with the fallout of leaving Jamie when he was too young to really remember her...actions have consequences and she can't escape the consequences of leaving her young son without his mother for 3 years...she just has to take time to fix the wrong she committed against her son...



Author's Response:

Hi jahchannah,

The dreaded side-eye, but you're right in your assessment of Charlie and the results of her actions. Glad you're enjoying the story.
