Sure glad that Mrs. Frost told Katherine the story about her husband's behavior. There is no excuse for Mr. Frost to do such a thing even though he feels revenge against women.

Thank you for going back and reading without any money attached.

Mrs Frost appearing and apologising was a surprise turn of events. This can lead to broader canvass of people's psyche and their behaviour. A very good development ...

This is a great continuation of your story. It is getting juicy - conflicts are more explained and personalities more reveled. I always appreciate your use of space and the length of piece.

What I liked about this chapter was you gave us insights into Frost's inner demons, and kind of gave us a perspective from his point of view, and that widens the scope of the novel. And you did it in realistic dialogue. The meeting between Katherine and Mrs. Frost had some good tension in it, exemplified by that refusal of taking the offered hand. The teary eyed Mrs. Frost also pushes us to be sympathetic towards a complicated situation. Interesting chapter. estory

Another delightful episode--spot-on snappy banter--their various interactions are brilliantly integrated with your masterful narration. Cute closing touch!

It's always nice to start my day off with time to read a few of my favorite authors on site, but this morning my diet is under siege thanks to that huge sandwich I can taste without touching. Thanks for sharing.

Oh, man, poor woman, she needs to make her way through the craziness of this world, where sometimes man think they have the right to say shitty things, and there are others that are trying to do the right thing. Thank you for sharing and good luck with your writings.

Overly protective or just concerned? Either way, Gabriel and Paul are endearing and it is a good thing they are around to help Katherine through this difficult time.
I sure wish I could get someone to bring me lunch, and such good ones too.

Dang, that's a well-constructed story, Barbara. Your pace throughout is excellent, as are the continually evolving characters.
Just a few things, to bring your attention to:
Any way you can convince her to put only one [When you use "anyway" as a transition, combine them, followed by a comma.]
and he was discriminated against. [Shouldn't it be "and he felt he was discriminated against."?]
Thanks for entertaining me this Sunday afternoon.

I am hoping the last suggestion, I was correcting as you were reading. I have that suggestion already made. I always appreciate the help. Any ideas on a good editor. I can't see to get in touch with the one I've used for years.

I'll send you a private note on editorship.

Haha! That last part was hilarious! Loved the way Paul responded... "We heard that." Well, I'm glad Mrs. Frost came to make amends... turns out Mr. Frost has been turned down and his son too. His behavior makes sense. He needs help. I loved this chapter. I notice each seems to have a food theme along with it, lol. Pull pork, delicous!
