What a beautiful story. I especially loved this line - "She told her last best friend about her first best friend just once, to explain her sadness on the sixth anniversary"
Author's Response: Thank you. I can't tell you how nice specific reviews are.

My god, this was beautiful. I stopped breathing at the laying her first best friend to rest line, then exhaled so loudly after the last sentence. WOW.
Author's Response: Thank you. I'm so pleased that you enjoyed and appreciated it. I was kind of nervous about the subject matter.

This was so lovely & so sad. It was such a well told short story--packs a lot of emotional punch in so few words.
Author's Response: Thank you. I wasn't sure how well the theme would be received.
