This one got me. Wonderful Andy. Reminded me of all the people I miss.

I was going to go for scary but I guess it didn't want to be that. 💛

I'm glad it didn't. This was tender and beautiful

Now that's a story and a half Andy. It made me stop and think about the ordinary things I did with the people I knew until one day they weren't there anymore.

Thank you! That's exactly the feeling I was hoping for. I'm glad you liked it. 💛🎄

Wow! Double twist!

I suspected Something about Tucker but thought it would happen later. Then the moments of intimacy with both your beloved spirits threw me off - beautifully done & such a mellow feeling conveyed.

This will stay with me a long time - well done 👏

I love me a good twist! And do you know what's better than a good twist? Two twists! I'm glad you liked it 💛🎄

Oh. OHH. I did not see that end coming AT ALL. Stab me in the freaking spleen when I'm not looking, why don’t you. Twice even! 👌😎🎯

Andy Edge's avatar

I'll try not to stab you again but I make no promises 💛

Like others have said, this one is particularly sticking with me this week. I keep seeing restacks pop up and came over for another read. So pleased to see this piece doing well! 🖤

Andy Edge's avatar

Oh, thank you! I'm really happy this resonates with people. I think that love and loss is just part of life and one none of us can escape. 💛

Jean Miller's avatar

I'll be here for it. 😉👍

Ahhh ouch twice. Beautiful writing.

Thank you for reading! 💛

Oh my word, that is sooooo good!

I was expecting something else, not so different, but kinda differently, peaking at the ‘I love you’ bit. But then it swung round to grab me in a much better, more poignant way. And then grammy on top. Bravo! You sure pack a punch.

Thanks! I really started this story to be scary but it just didn't go that way. ❤️💚

Jet Propelled's avatar

Ah yes, indeed. Those sneaks do their own thing despite our best efforts. This appeals to me more than plain horror.

Oooh… before I even read this, how did you do that ‘multiple authors’ thing? Asking for two friends.
