that ending is so...absolute. so the journey is over?
i couldn't hold back the tears with this one. i must say, i never saw that coming. i was half expecting (or maybe just hoping) you would play the "and i woke up" game. i'm glad you didn't, because it would have been cliche, but at the same time i didn't want it to end. definitely bittersweet.

yeah, i was definately toying with the idea of having her wake up, but then i thought no, i want this to be sad (lol).
my original idea was to have her wake up and then find out a few months later that she was pregnant again with Pete's baby this time and they were all going to live happily ever after and blah blah, but i thought no, thats not what this story is about, its about heartbreak and loss, not happy endings.
