You have hit the ball out of the park, as usual. You have moved the story along nicely. You have done a great job in describing the early relationship between Ali and Cord. I do not see any room for improvement.

What are you going to do with those two? Both Ali and Cord are so supersensitive. Ali's giving Joyce too much credit. If Cord says they're done, believe it. I'm glad Ali is going to meet with the women that Pat assaulted. Maybe that'll remind her she is a lawyer. Rosa helps things along by asking Cord to take her to the meeting. Great characterizations. Hope the meeting will yield some results. Pat needs to be prosecuted, the way he's been preying on women. judi

Good work. The dialogue seems natural.
I can't see Ali crying about a past girlfriend, though. I thought she was a bit tougher than that.
Best wishes and good luck with the book.

You're keeping up this great style, very unique in many ways, of this down to earth storytelling mostly through dialogue. Sorry I can't keep up as much as I'd like. We have alot to deal with between dad and the house right now. estory

I enjoyed this post as I do all of them. Alexandra seem unsure of their relationship in spite of what Cord has told her. I guess Joyce seen to beautiful and sure of herself. It didn't should as though she had changed he mind about living in this place so I don't think she and Cord would make it even if Ali wasn't around.

This was a great chapter. Lots of emotions and stuff. Unfortunately, the SIXES are all gone seeing this is a bit late. Keep it all coming, still great reading as always.

I had missed the previous chapter,so I read that first .I liked the way the association of Cordero and Ali progressing -this is the right way. Joyce ,the bad penny has come back but I am sure she can't upset the strong foundation of their feelings.

Fine chapter and as always, Barbara, your fine dialogue really intensifies the story. Just a few things below:

"Wiping her hands on a [dishtowel] is one word.
"She tears...[Her] tears crept down her cheek."
"Neither of you [are] sure where it's going. As in ...neither 'one' [is] sure [I added the word 'one' for your understanding.]

I'm confident we haven't seen the last of Joyce, even though she won't be having dinner with Cord.

Alexandra glanced outside at where Codero always parked [... where CORDERO always parked...]

He jogged to Alexandra's room and knocked. [Would he jog?]

Cordero exhaled and then his eyes met his dads. [... his eyes med his DAD'S]

Happily, I saved a six for you. A rarity past the weekend.
