Ah, the painting is so much more than a painting and the relationship is so much more than Shana wants to admit.

Few bits & pieces-

"That little lady, probably won't happen anytime soon." - I think another comma after that here.

Stay safe, and keep doing what you're doing and. We're going to see what we have on Kuznetsov- either make this one sentence or delete 'and'.

I won't need to say a word. You're face says it all." - Your.

, "Is this okay. I don't think we'll be bothered in here." - may need a question mark in here.

All the best
G

    I wondered about a comma after that. I have added it. The others are stupid errors. I knew better. I have edited this post for months and still overlooked them, DARN!!! Thank you for the catches. I really do appreciate it.

It seems Shana is slowly growing more comfortable with Drew. His brother needs lighten up with teasing her too. Fascinating information about the possibility of a chip being in/on the painting. Shana has good reason to worry, obviously saying she no longer wants the painting will not get the Russians to back off. Great j ob with this one, lots of important information. Good luck with starting back to school. I am sending positive thoughts in your direction... hope they help ease your concerns.

Shana is beginning to show her emotions for Drew. This is very well written with a smooth flow of words, making for a very good read. There is good imagery.

Easy question. She was afraid and wanted security, which Drew provides. If there are more bedrooms, drag another bed in. Cots are not comfortable. I wonder if geckos crawled on her... yuk!!! :)

Wonderful chapter. It makes sense about the painting. If there is some disc containing information the Russians want, they could very well feel they need to eliminate Shana because she might know too much. Poor Shana is usually the butt of humor from Zach. Now it's Shana's sleeping on the floor, when there might be geckos crawling about. Having the dogs there will help with security. Good move to bring them. Shana needs to lighten up, but hard to do when she's under so much pressure with threats being made. Excellent work. judi

Hi Barbara, I must admit, I find Shana's behaviour very unlikely to happen in the twenty-first century in the Western world. But I like the story, so I go along with it "What's wrong with (the) pretty lady? Has she seen another gecko?"
I guess that's one way to put it." Anderson grinned. "I like to think of them as we get to know each other better and drawer = draw closer to one another."
All the best. Ulla:)))

    I will make the changes and I appreciate the catches. As a rule in today's world it things like this don't happen, but that being said, I do know, first hand, situations where it does happen. I have had students at school who were brought up extremely fundamental, whether it be Jewish, Catholic, Baptist, or even Wiccan. I think the key word here fundamental.
reply by Ulla on 29-Jul-2018
    I see what you mean. Fundamental is the word. :)))

    It sure is and it is scary sometimes. A year ago, I had a child from a religious background that to be honest was almost scary. We've had a lot of children from that church and each year it gets worse and worse.
reply by Ulla on 29-Jul-2018
    That does sound scary. Where has the tolerance gone?
reply by the author on 29-Jul-2018
    Good question. I would like to see the US go back to it. It' s getting really bad.

Poor Shana, she's both embarrassed and scared, and Zachary's not helping by the verbal shots and fun he's having at poor Shana's expense, it seems they'll have to get married now, heh heh. The over riding question is...why did she sleep on the floor next to Drew? Well done Barbara, great episode, blessings, Roy

Giving out the SIXES again! So much emotion and new leads in this chapter.Sounding a bit like the secret "Gov" coding in the movie "Mercury Rising" picked up by the boy with Autism.

Now for the spags and or suggestions.
I(t?) must be I'm really dumb."


In the following, I know it is Drew talking to Shana but do you need to make that a little clearer..perhaps...Drew turned to Shana...then the following?
"I see you have on one of the New York outfits. Thank you." Anderson grinned.

"I still feel I need to repay you."

Hello Barb
Really good now here we as readers reading the serious institution about the painting and the real fun part of Shana sleeping on the floor (smiles with Geckos) and Anderson sleeping comfortable in a bed next to Shana
Thank you sharing.
