I thought the story was beautiful and it had a great build up.I would love to read a follow up to this story!!!
I could feel the emotions building in both women. Excellent job. One small criticism: I know you were trying to communicate Beth's big sister-like protectiveness with all the references to "little hands, "tiny lips" etc, but after a while you reduced my perception of Abby to something smaller than a size one, to the point that her deminutiveness made Beth seem a little paedophelic. Still an excellent story that moved me.
The editing was helpful but your story was sooo good that I read both versions. Love your work.
