... not funny per se, BUT this story put a big smile upon my face! Well done!
And not nearly enough depth to the characters or the storyline. It felt like I started reading in the middle of a story and didn't get to the end. I love romance stories but this was not romantic at all to me. It left me very unsatisfied. I've given you 25% for the actual writing but I found the story itself quite bad.
I really did like this. Well done, and as someone else said, a nice way to start the morning.
Though not a nice way to end my day. I am in bed ready to sleep, after reading this, a drop of tears flow down my cheek. Still it's sweet. Thx
The usual from one of the best authors on Lit. I enjoy all your stories. It's a just-nice read; not too long and not too short. This one was so sweet and I loved every moment of it(: Good work! <3 Lillian, KR.
I agree with two comments below, it is not a "story." It is an interlude, short, very sweet, and gives all the information an intelligent, thinking person needs to understand the two characters.
Thank you very much.

<p>....I kinda think that was the point. It was a cute, harmless, feel good kinda of story. At first I wondered about the woman, but once he started his attack, and it was kinda a hidden one, it made me go "Aaaawwwww" to.</p>
<p>Nice story!</p>

I enjoyed reading this story. you are right, not all romance stories need a sex scene.
Up to the usual Scorpio44 quality-what did u do-change yr name for fun or to confuse people?
I have out lived two wives. The first was the light of my youth. The second was the savior of my heart. When you actually have a soul mate it makes your life feel very empty when they are gone. Please write as many more of these stories that you can. JD Seller
Scorpio has always been one of the most talented writers we have, but his older material was often very intense. Lately, ever since he added the a to his sign, he seems to have mellowed, and his writing is better for it. I know what he means about those who believe in romance being able to believe in fairy tales. Those of us who have been lucky enough to have a true soul mate know that it is something that is guided by the fates. I've been with mine for over 25 years and I wouldn't trade her for any woman on the planet.
Thank you for sharing your stories with us. Also, please pay my respects to your parents. They do good work.
This is one of those stories that are so good that the reader wants more but, let's face it, it really isn't necessary. This story stands on its own merits. I must agree with Jack_Straw - ever since you added 'a' to your "nom de plum", you have mellowed, and you writing is better for it. Pete.
This was a very good tale, very well woven. A "Just right" short story. I finished all the Scorpio44 stuff yesterday. I'm seeing some real improvement in your writing and look forward to finishing off the last couple of years.
i love it ,truly an exceptional story would u mind writing a sequel
Thanks
Painfully few stories and fewer writers get through my thick hide -
Less than 5 minutes before my boss was due to walk in for an hour long session on NPI Values streams I read this story and was in trouble heh.
Not much to it but it was awesome dead feelings may actually be able to come back to life - not sure - but maybe.
is awesome. I have to say this is something that was unexpected, but better than anything I have read.
Good stuff! I love it when I find really good stuff in here. Like I did today. Thank you!
Smooth, straight, and right to the heart. GOOD? NAH GREATT. Thnak you

It reminds me of someone I lost. She was special. I saw her wither away. It hurts
I loved this story. I know, I'm soft in the head.
I really enjoyed the story despite the low probability of him sending the same type of flowers with the same greetings with each order of flowers. I just wish that the author had taken the story somewhat further respecting the fact that it is a sexless romance story. For those who normally frequent this site it could be taken to the end of them having sexual intercourse. Lots of possibilities with this story as a foundation.
This reader is totally surprised that he seems to be the lone person to comment on this story. I think that the author hit a home run with this story.
....great little story. Inspirational on an emotional level. Five worthy stars. Oh! And thank you!
This is a great little story. The imagery is very vivid and even though there's not a lot of dialogue the characters are portrayed well with easily distinguishable personalities. There doesn't really need to be a lot of background for this, it works beautifully just as it is. It's just a nice story about two people who discover they're meant for one another without saying more than a few sentences to each other. All they needed was a little supernatural intervention. Very well done.
