Thanks for the specifics about a grand jury and the fact that Grandmother did not know she was going to testify for one. I liked the comic relief of the jello and pudding cups and the touching name of "Little Flower." You are such a wonderful storyteller--you make us care about all of your characters. -Joan

    I am really quite fond of Grandmother. I am pleased you enjoyed this one and found the jell-o scene amusing.

'The Deposion Part 2' is so thorough in elaborating on the root story and shows the characters in believable dialogue.

need quote mark: '......the blame belongs to Dark.(")

need a hyphen: '..twenty(-) three people.

Super chapter, Sasha.

I love how strong a person Alfina is. It is a joy to watch her grow as a character with each chapter.

Grandmother nodded and grabbed a third cup of pudding downing (it) as fast as she could.

I think Alfia will do fine in front of the grand jury. She might have problems dealing with the language and modern life, but she has spunk. She had to have spunk in order to have survied Dark. She has no self-pity and takes life as it is handed to her. What she lacks in knowledge, she makes up for in courage.

Hi Sasha,

Alfina talking about the event she witnessed brought a lump to my throat. She is painfully honest, like a guileless child. I hope she can get through the questions she will be asked when she is ion the stand. I am sure John's attorney will not cut her any slack. I hope James can prepare her well enough that she won't fall apart. I am looking forward to the next chapter....well done...blessings, chey

    Defense attorney's can be very nasty. James will do his best to prepare Grandmother for her testimony.

Another great chapter. While I certainly understand James's concern for his grandmother, I think she is much stronger than he thinks she is. Having survived all she has, and still be able to go on takes fortitude and courage.. I love this character. Well done. Linda

    I love Grandmother too, and you are right James has yet to see how strong she really is and how smart too. Glad you liked this one.

    Thank you so much for catching the spags. Yes, poor grandmother has been through hell and Angela is an angel to not feel any animosity toward her.

Hi Smurphy
Ummm. This section is really starting to take off. I fear that the attorneys are about to move in and make mince meat of the family.
Keep em' coming, Smurphy.

EXCELLENT WRITING. YOUR CHARACTERS MOVED THE STORY'S PLOT ALONG, GOOD DIALOGUE, ESPECIALLY THE GRANDMOTHER'S. CHANGE OF SCENES GOOD, AGAIN ESPECIALLY WHERE THE GRANDMOTHER WAS EATING THE JELLO, ECT. GOOD TENSION IN BOTH SCENES. NO SPAGS. WELL WRITTEN!

TAKE CARE,

RAY
