A beautifully evocative story to which I can in part relate, I too keep a dress for the memories, though that is the extent of it. I loved the way he was presented, as someone with more going on than one could guess, a wistful look at a life that has perhaps been shattered and every so often is glued together again with powerful faith and his committed essence. I wondered, which would suit best, to launder the dress each time or try to retain her scent, and would his essence eventually overpower her scent? To me this was a sad comundrum he would have to one day face, the inevitable obliteration of a treasured memory.

I also loved the way the woman was presented, as having a curious interest but also the instinct and courtesy to let it take it's course, that she was an empathic therapist who was prepared to sublimate her own beliefs and trust him in the necessity of his.

Some how, the aspect of money lent a cleansing touch to the arrangement for both of them.

Thank you so much.
