    You have a knack for writing those hard-hitting stories, don't you? Aha.<3

    This was definitely no exception to that thought above. You're a phenomenal writer. (I prolly mispelled that, aha.) Like the blinding. said, this was amazing. I'm so speechless that the boy did that. He has some major confidence and strength.

    I really liked that Oliver painted that message on the side of the house. It just fit so well, you know? Like one of those actions you know is right and you've got to do to lay something to rest.

    I also found myself liking the relationship between the two step-siblings. How they were so close, ya know? Good family relationships are essential in situations like these.

    This was brilliant and left me with this spooky feeling of knowing in my gut. Amazing.

    This was amazing. That fact that he stood against his own father shows he had character. This was brilliant. I love it when there's the present and the past in a one-shot. Not just all present or all past. I like the back and forth.

    This gave me chill bumps. Like, my legs and arms were covered in chill bumps. You presented this very well and executed it perfectly. What Oliver painted on the side of the house at the end was perfect. I simply loved this short story. You're so talented and have a great skill for this. Fantastic job, doll!

    I really like how detailed it was. I'm not fond of writing overly detailed stories, but, it's my guilty plaesure to read them. The longer and more drawn out, the better.

    I must say, this was highly disturbing. But with topics like these, it's supposed to be. So, I guess you can say this was realisticly disturbing. You were meaning to write it that way, no? Stories like this aren't the usual thing to read in my eyes, but it was very good. Well written, and, I give you extra points for using 'innuendo' in there. I love that word....

    Honestly, I must say, this is the best thing I have ever read on Mibba.

    Definitely powerful!
    I didn't really see any mistakes and the layout was just as swell. I wasn't too sure what I would find in this and you seriously kept me on my toes the entire time, but I found a happy placing with the end of the story. You rounded it really well, telling all of those memories... wow. How horrifying! I'd almost want more dialogue in this story- but at the same time, it was told enough through those words, and the rest had to be explained otherwise, I think. I love how close they are and how he had to make a hard choice- and make the right one at that. Loved it!

    Wow. I'm speechless! Okay, I can say that this comment might suck, but here goes nothing. Like Caravaggio said, it's very touching and you did quite well with describing the feelings and whatever was going on (: I liked the ending and how he spray painted that sentence on the house. Very, very powerful.
    Lovely job, once again! :D

    Oliver's name randomly changed to Simon halfway down the page? XP

    Also: he didn’t want t make a big deal of it

    This story was so touching. It's a subject that many people attempt to write about, and many people fail to do it justice or to respect it for how people are really affected. But, I think you did quite well with it.

    It was nice to see it from the other end, from someone who had not just sat around and let it happen. It was very good.
