It's good ! Jennifer talked to Justin and Brian came home safe! So waiting for their talk on the morning.I love the children they give their full support to Justin. Thanks for the update.
Author's Response: Justin really needed that talking to; it's so easy to get wrapped up in your own perspective that you forget to look at it from the other person'e view. Jen telling him to consider how he would feel if the roles were reversed brought to light the fact that Justin woulnd't have handled it any better than Brian did. And it begins to foster an understanding between the two of them. This needed to happen. Thanks for reading! :)

My stomach went in knots reading this as the tension jumped off the page. I loved the kids trying to cheer Justin up even if they didn’t know the reason why Justin was upset. Jennifer is right he should have told him but we all do things we think is best for some people that turns out to the wrong decision. I’m glad Brian came home and I do hope all will be ok.
Fantastic work x
Author's Response: Sorry? LOL! Actually, I'm not sorry. ;) It was meant to be a tense situation. Those kids are amazing, and very thoughtful. Hopefully they will do the same for Brian at a later date. And Jen did good, pointing out Justin's culpability in this siuation. He really should have come clean long ago no matter his intentions. After all, you know the saying of good intentions... Brian was always going to come home as you'll soon see. He loves his Sunshine too much to stay away no matter how much Justin may have pissed him off. ;) Thanks for reading! :)

Glad that Jennifer told Justin the truth and that Brian came home safe & sound. Hope their talk clears the air.
Author's Response: Justin needed a few truths pointed out to him by someone who has been there and can easily relate to what Brian's feeling. Hopefully this new perspective will open Justin's eyes to just how hurt and angry Brian is feeling and they can work together from this point on. Thanks for reading! :)

Wow I hadn’t come from Jen’s perspective either that was an interesting slant on the whole thing. I just thought everyone would have championed Justin against the viper I hadn’t factored the trust element at all.
Author's Response: I know that we all want to rally around and protect Justin; and that's important in this time period. But Justin needed to face the fact that he was in the wrong, and who better to point it out than Mom? As with most people, we tend to focus on our hurt and our point of view, rarely considering others until they are pointed out to this. As Jen said, Brian is justifiably angry; his husband kept a pretty important secret from him for three years, and seemed to have every intention of keeping it from him still. That had to have hurt. I know that if I were in Brian's shoes, I would be so pissed at Justin, and extremely hurt that Justin hadn't trusted me to have his back. Justin needed to see that. Thanks for reading! :)
