"She sighed, searching the reflection like she did all those years ago, trying to find her flaw, the thing that makes her so disposable, lovable only to a point."
Wow. That is a devastating line.
Author's Response: this is one of my favorite lines in the whole chapter, I'm glad you like it as well, but I'm sorry it made you sad!

It was good to see Pam put her foot down.
I hope it continues even if she doesn’t feel the confidence deep down in herself.
Jim says he’s working for his family,
but there’s no point if he’s not going to be
with his family. There are other jobs out there
that he can do. It’s not like he’s performing heart
transplants. It’s only sports. At least Karen is gone.
Author's Response: Exactly! if he's not going to be home ever, what's the point of keeping the job? I'm glad you enjoyed the chapter, and thank you for the review!

Bye Karen!
This was beautifully painful. Of course I may have been rocking back and forth crying if you didn't promise things will get better. Pam is trying so hard to keep it together and reach out and Jim is in danger of creating a "too little, too late" situation. It's hard to imagine he doesn't see what's happening and where this is headed. They both know what happens when you don't communicate.
"...the thing that makes her so disposable, lovable only to a point." The last two paragraphs, oh my god. Poor Pam.
I am completely invested in these characters and this story. When I saw there was an update I was excited and afraid at the same time. More please!
Author's Response: I'm glad you weren't too upset after this chapter, and that you enjoyed it more than anything. because its never my goal to leave you heartbroken, lol. Hopefully the next few chapters are a little happier! thank you for the review.

What I did like about this chapter is that Pam gets some steel in her spine and lays it out to Jim. Him, "doing this for his family," is tearing the family apart. Really good to see some clear stark truth come out. Pam's right, if he's a ghost of who he was due to that job, the job's not worth it. Really hope Jim listens to her before something more drastic happens.
Author's Response: I have feeling that Jim will listen to his gut, and do what's right. Thank you for the review!
