What a charming little story. I didn’t know how it was going to end up going about halfway through but alls well that ends well.

Thanks, Tim.

Ah, the sweet, gentle world of an innocent young girl (I’ve one posted simply, “Girl”).

Sam,
You never fail to touch your readers’ hearts, minds, ‘n souls in bringing to life your characters’ personalities (even a cat’s), and in how they each fit so perfectly into your stories’ always interesting plots … and, your grammar is exemplary.

This is a most lovely piece, and I love the surprise ending.
I hope you like it here, Sam … the site needs your “special” touch! ⁓ Richard🖌

Thank you, Richard.

Are we here? Or are we a simulation? Ya never know!
