(hugs) Sorry for the 'insanely painful' part, I certainly don't want to ever cause that.
Thank you, I struggled with the detail aspect quite a bit. I generally try to plan out my stories beforehand, but this time really had to outline the points each section had to cover in order for the whole thing to make sense. I'm glad it sounds like I succeeded for you. :)
Yup, I didn't want to make Ellen a flat out villain, despite how Ben probably felt towards her at the end of the story, but I think it's fair to say that even in the best of times she probably was a difficult person to deal with.
Thank you for reading and leaving such kind feedback.
