Mornin', Cameron
Well, the time has come for Ennis. The last time he introduced Junior to his friend, it was Jack, and he sent Jack away. Now, he's introducing her to Tom. What will he do and say, and admit?
From your other Drabble line, about the Artist [more coming, I hope?!] set in 2003, I recall a line where Ennis thought about "all his years with Tom". Not sure if it meant those years were over, or still ongoing. I hope this is his turning point, and the start of a relationship with Tom. Even so, I know Tom will never replace Jack in Ennis' heart, and their relationship would not be complete for either of them. Still, best for Ennis to be with Tom right now.
And, who was the person who saw them outside the trailer a while ago, and left without making himself known, and went back far away where he came from? Jack? Think so. Sad, for both of them, if it was.
Really a great story. Glad you've kept it up, and looking forward to more.
Thanks again.
