I distinctly remember reading this on my cell phone in the bathroom at work [because I was/am so addicted to this story I would/will blow off my job to read it] and having a minor coronary at that last line.
I guess I just never got around to telling you about it.
My heart, thankfully, recovered, but man was I pissed. I was so about to hunt down anyone who might have even slightly resembled Christina, and hurt her, just to make myself feel okay.
That's how well you write.
