You should make it clear upfront whether this is a reconciliation story or not. Does it end with him getting back with his cheating wife? Even if he does not end up with her, does he give her another chance? It's not a spoiler, nor does it detract from the storytelling. It just saves the time of a lot of people who aren't interested in reconciliation stories. Maybe add a preface to this and all future updates, if this is the case.
Glad to see this character (these characters?) get a resolution. Loved the first set of stories with them, looking forward to where you're taking it.
Thank you for the comments!! I'm working in the framework of the oneagainst stories Oxygen Games and When One Day We Are Gone which gives (a) a detailed background if that's your thing but also (b) guard rails for the story progression. As to whether Aidan decides on reconciliation or a new beginning, I think I need to leave that open because it's the main theme of the story. Hopefully, you'll enjoy it whichever way it turns out.
No raac pls. I'll have to stop reading your beautiful stories. I don't care about btb either.
Moving on needs to be a thing .
Wait, so do you know if the OG author is not writing with this character anymore? As in, is what you're writing Canon and part of the OneAgainst universe?
Nice writing and I love the Aussie humour! Look forward to reading more of your work.
King_MacAulay - yes, it's canon, and Aidan and Rosa will resurface in the main storyline eventually. It's nice to have Aidan go on his own adventure though.
Nice progression, and as an Australian myself, Flint, Hardy and Kat ring very true. Feel like I have met there types many times over. Looking forward to the next instalment!
5 stars to the writer. I think he completely caught the emptiness a person feels after the breakup of a spouse that you have been with for a long time. Buried with feelings of emptiness, worthlessness, and lost.
Good setup with the background sketched but still fraught with the unknown. The "god of second chances" makes for a great segue into infinite future possibilities both re relationships and life choices.
Well done with the writing and the unfolding story. Keep writing.

“The god of second chances” would have been a hell of a name for this missive. The MC seems to be trying to be unhappy, like he was punishing himself. For what? So much left unsaid. Perhaps these questions are resolved as the story unfolds. Well written.
