I adore the way you write Cece - your characterization of her is my favorite. I think this chapter is also my favorite of this series. It's so heart warming and sweet and I loved seeing, of all people, the mother of Pam's ex's perspective of Jim and Cece. I really could see this happening in my head, your description is great. I wish I had a suggestion for another person for them to meet right now. If anything does strike me I'll send it your way. This is great, and I hope you have another update soon!

This was a great update. I loved that Pam had a nice relationship with Roy's mom. I would love any character you have them run into.

I think I liked this one best. I can't really place why, though. Maybe because the other ones were expected, and Joanne is one of the characters that we never met, never saw with either Pam or Jim before, and so the connection between them is really fresh and can be played with a little. I loved the way you wrote the interactions between them. Pam seemed so much younger, almost like Joanne was still a potential mother-in-law, because, in a way, Joanne was a mother figure for her for some time, and watched her/mentored her as she grew up. Great chapter and what a lovely character. Great dialogue, too. And I loved Joanne's inner thinking as she saw Pam and Jim interact by the car - that was so sweet!
Other characters... hmm... maybe a college girlfriend of Jim's? But that seems kind of predictable. And old teacher of either Jim or Pam's? Maybe Pam's art teacher who saw Pam with Roy, I'd imagine. I look forward to what you come up with, keep this story going, it's such a fresh, creative idea!

I love this story I'm glad you decided to continue and plan on writing even more. I love outsiders points of view. Not sure who else you could write about, but maybe it could be from when they first stated dating, you could write from the POV of one of Jim's friends (most would choose Mark,) but a friend who knew how much he felt for Pam and how she broke his heart? Maybe you'll pick up better ideas from others!

Good idea, Dedeen! We rarely read anything about Roy's mom, so I enjoyed this peek into her relationship with Pam. I like how you portray her. Of course she loves her son, but she loved Pam, too. I'm happy that Jim made an appearance :) Nice job!

I always thought Roy's mom was probably a decent sort of lady - this is very much as I had imagined her. A loose end I'd love to hear from is Rich Sommer's character.

Just letting you know I'm really enjoying this premise. It's both sweet and cathartic to get all these previous characters (or at least people that meant a lot to Pam/Jim) to see how settled and happy Jim and Pam are now. I love it!
Although if I was Roy's mom and wondering why Pam left my son, all I'd need is Jim walking into the room for me to go "Ah. That's why." The again, I'm pretty shallow....:D

Lovely lovely lovely. Having Cece with her when she met Roy's mom was ch a great idea. Listening to Pam's side of things, and how Joanne still felt about her was also really nice to read. I am so in love with everything this story chooses to be :p
