Calla... this was... BEAUTIFUL!
It was so... great it almost made me cry!
Now I have warm feeling just below my heart - this fic is simply ... BEAUTIFUL.
I know I repeat myself with the same words, but I'm truly speechless.
WONDERFUL work,
Calla Lily!

*slaps forehead* Dun, dun, dun! I got it!
I had to read it TWICE, Lu! Twice!
But once I, you know, understood it was NOT a funeral, but a wedding, I enjoyed it more than when I read it the first time. SO, I enjoyed it twice!
As usual, I love your use of words, so eloquent and mystic. AND romantic in a melacholy kind of way. I liked this little drabble, Lu. Terribly so.
Love,
Andrea
PS.: Where the HELL are you?! It's been DECADES I haven't talked to you!!

*headdesks accordingly*
I've been wandering the earth in search for my monkey!
Goodness, I've never had a review with the words 'terribly so' within it, so I suppose that you like it very much, no? I've yet to receive a 'whoops-a-daisy' or a 'oh my gosh, it's inconcievable!'
Okay, before you people strangle me I just want to say thank you for all the great words you've all given!

This is amazing...Just like most people here, I thought that they were attending a funeral ceremony but then I realized as the story progressed on that it was actually a wedding....As a fellow Filipino, I know the veil, candle, and cord stuff that symbolize the union of the bride and the groom...It was really great to see that you've incorporated those things into this story...Great job here!

Awww, Calla. This was so cute. Like everyone else, I, too, thought it was a funeral, especially when Relena mentioned that she was "losing a son." However, once I read the last line and reread the ficlet a little more closely, I realized how I'd misinterpreted the description.
I love it.

- * In traditional Filipino weddings, the veil, cord, and candles are used to symbolize the union of the bride and groom.
- For my parents wedding anniversary.
