Great story, very easy to read, captivating from the start to the end. Though the ending is telegraphed well early on, it is still satisfying for me to read how this story finished.
Congratulations for your curie. Welcome back to the platform and I hope you will write some more ^_^.
I agree it was a little predictable and that was the weakest point for me too. I'm glad you enjoyed it overall though!
Thanks! I will keep writing
