This—I like. Scratch that, I love it. It’s really intriguing. It makes you wonder what happened, but there aren’t too many questions unanswered. It’s really well written and the imagery is lovely. High fives.

It has great imagery, and you capture a great moment in the internal conflict people have around family. Minor edit: “every ones” should be “everyone’s”

BTW Welcome to ficly. I like your pic.

great family dynamic, the antagonism, you can’t pick your family! But where did the friend come from?
