RE: Marina achieves one of her goals-The Ink Well Fiction Prompt #154

in The Ink Welllast year

This story has an interesting arc. Often, separated lovers will reunite and live happily ever after. However, you offer a complication. Years and experience have separated the two lovers. One is married. This makes a true reunion (as romantic partners) impossible for our protagonist. She declares:

it is better to walk alone than badly accompanied

With that line you manage to offer a moral within the story without preaching to the reader. This is exactly the way in which an author should present such a message.

There are issues with pronouns. This is most certainly due to translation. Throughout the piece 'he' is used as opposed to 'she'. The pronoun obviously refers to a woman, so that is a bit confusing. Nonetheless, readers can sort this out with a little effort.

You provide a narrative that has a significant conflict, one you resolve well. You also provide a solid character portrait for the protagonist.

Thank you for sharing this with us, @rammargarita.

Thank you for your comment and for clarifying about the pronouns, I will check, review and edit. May God bless you and give you a happy day.

I apologize, I checked and the pronouns referring to he and she are correctly placed.Have a happy evening.
