Hi! I'm back... We're currently living in crazy and terrible times ... Our Canadian exchange student had to cancel his stay with us and had to return to Canada after only half of the time. My two boys don't have school, are at home and I've to work as a private teacher besides my normal job at the hospital... But luckily we're all healthy and I hope you and your family or friends are too!
So, back to your story! A beautiful chapter! I like that although Gus is so much like Brian in appearance and gestures, his love for art connects him to Justin. Thank you for the wonderful pictures and the little trip into the past and for this rather calm chapter. A little break from all the pain and excitement was good. Warmest regards!

Crazy times indeed :( I had to cancel my trip home to Germany in March, couldn't go to my friend's wedding, had to cancel visiting my family, they had to cancel visiting me for Easter and we've been on lockdown for 5 weeks now. I've been working from home for 7 weeks now. Crazy times indeed, but like you said, at least we're healthy, my friends and family are healthy and that's all that matters :) I am glad to hear that you and your family are hanging in there!
I am glad you liked the chapter, to be honest, it's one of my favourite ones. I always felt a bit bad for Gus, after having lost both his moms, knowing that he's the only child in the family that's not a natural child of both his fathers and I just wanted to show that yes, those things bother him at times, but with the love and support of his family he will always make it through moments like that. They stick together as a family, they are one loving unit and Gus, just like everyone else, is very much a part of that unit :)
Thanks for your comment! :)

Art is something Justin and Gus have in common.
Author's Response:
Yes, and it's something they have bonded over ever since Justin has been back. It's their thing :)
Thanks for your comment!

Tissue box time. The pictures really made me remember the series. Great chapter. Wonderful writing.

It's actually one of my favourite chapters in this story! I just love the relationship between Justin and Gus and how they are able to talk about things Brian might not be comfortable with...
More will be up soon :) Thanks for your comment!

Beautiful chapter: first of all because Justin was able to discuss with Gus and it was really time that someone saw/heard how much in pain he was/is and then because Gus has been able to see that his father loved him from day 1, despite everything Gus must have heard from his mothers and from the gang. It's something that must have done a deep damage in the young boy.

I just love the relationship between Justin and Gus, them bonding over their common interest in art and them being able to talk about things that Gus knows Brian might be uncomfortable with.
I also wanted to show the effects that everything going on has on the boys and how it makes them wonder about other things as well. Especially Gus, who at 14 is now a teenager, looking for answers.
Thanks for your comment. More will be up soon :)
