Wow! Good for Pam. I was expecting the usual "get them together somehow" ending, but you threw a curve. Very realistic throughout and I've enjoyed reading every word. Thanks!

A fantastic ending to this story,DM, and a bold place to end it, if I may say so. Most other writers would have used this phone conversation as a springboard to something else, some grand act of bravery on Pam's part where she tells Jim exactly how she feels and he comes back and they ride off into the sunset together.
Instead, you've chosen to point out something that I think most of us overlook during this scene: namely, that neither one of them ever really expected to see each other again, and that it very well could have been their last conversation ever. And, even though we all know that's not what happened, I applaud you for being brave enough to suggest that if it hadn't happened, that it would be okay. :)
Great job all around, my friend.

Thanks! I didn't want to take it further, I didn't want to delve into their relationship. I didn't even want to acknowledge the text that was sent during Diwali. I wanted it to feel realistic to life and to the story line that happened during S3. I like how it ended too, it was probably anti-climactic after 11 months of waiting but it felt realistic.
I'm so glad you stuck it out with me, it's been nice to at least keep a few loyal readers.
