Wow. This is good. And good on that girl for locking the door after him! Seems like she’s getting some closure, but maybe I’m interpreting it wrong. Oh well 4 pencils!

I like this. Great emotion.

Tough to gauge the emotions involved, I feel, since we are given so little background. They had a falling out for some unknown reason. It’s more like we get to color the picture you paint with our own emotions, which also works really well. A very nicely done vignette.

Nicely done! I can really sympathize with the headspace of this one.

A beautiful story about letting go and growing up.

BTW, Welcome to Ficly!

oh this was nicely written. It also had an enormous amount of story in a very small space. you just rocked out with your socks out.

This Ficly packed more into 1024 characters than I have seen from any other to this point. Exceptional! Easily five pencils.

The short bits where you jumped time and omitted description help us to get past all the sticky mucky yuck she must have gotten through that we didn’t need to know about. This is bittersweet, now she is the girl of his dreams, but the dreams she had of him are gone. She is strong for locking the door!

This is beautiful bittersweet. Great job.

What a jerk. This was both sad and empowering. Sad because she lost so much, and empowering because she realized he wasn’t the answer. Incredible language use here. High-quality for ficly! I applaud you!

Definitely bittersweet, but I enjoyed this story :)

Thanks everyone for the positive feedback! I’ve been struggling with my desire to be some sort of writer for a long time now, and this was very reassuring. Thanks again. :)

I know you IRL! Who knew you’d be an internet superstar!

Storng girl and nicely well.

You gave us just enough information to give us what she was going through, which was great.
