This is a dense, touching and intriguing writing work. I don't like horror pieces because the literary images (you have several) come back to me, recurrently, after reading. I don't tell you anything else .... I think this short story is very well conceived.
It has been a pleasure to read you @candidfolly
Thank you very much @marcybetancourt. I hope it didn't bother you too much after reading. I am glad, however, that it all came together for you. Sometimes it's hard to know how my own thoughts look from the outside.
Your story is very well written and that's the important thing.
