Huh? Oh, OK, I get it. Just had to do some research on the Internet. Clever.
This is surprisingly a beautiful and clever story. One of my favorite things I’ve read in a short while. It can be interpreted in a couple of ways but my interpretation (which I think you implied in the story) is heartbreaking.
I’m definitely retweeting this.

Okay, now that is pretty genius. Excellent work!
such an original way of telling a heartbreaking story. Thanks
Haunting! What a unique way to tell a story.
Well done & touching. Very well done!
Just read it. Wow.
