First I would like to extend my condolences for the loss of your sister. Please take your time and take care of yourself and the business at hand. I know that when you are ready, you will update.
This is a really great chapter! I really like that way that you've developed the storyline and characters.

I thank you for your kind words, Kaasan. Time will heal, and all that. I will be posting when things are a bit more relaxed.
