This deffinitely NOT a boring chapter; it held my attention all the way through, which is something of an acheivement. I think that it really makes sense for Mikey to not think that he matters or that anyone should care, I mean, two people out of a world of people care and that world includes his parents who are suppose to care about him so why should Mikey believe Frank and Gerar when the world is telling him different? I liked how close Mikey came to confiding in Frank, to the point of admitting finally that he's not okay, but how he shyed away from it in the end; this staye true to character and added a lot is suspense to the chapter.
I eagerly await more! :)

This is such a nice review. Thank you! I'm glad it kept your attention because I was thinking was it was getting boring! So it's great to hear its not. I'm very relieved this story makes sense and stays true to the characters. I was feeling that they would seem out of place and didnt ring through to their personality. Mikey has finally admitted it which was quite a dramatic step but hasn't got full trust in him. Or anyone really! I'm really glad you enjoyed it. I'm sorry for saying at some stage that I would maybe update twice last night or in the morning but I didn't get around to doing it! Sorry :(
Thank you very much for the kind review! :)
