This is just a personal pet peeve of mine, but when I say I don’t want to talk about something, and the other person tries to guess what it is anyway… ALWAYS gets under my skin. Used to happen to me a lot. I dunno. Apparently, I had a lot of friends who just can’t let things go. Thankfully, this isn’t something I have to really deal with anymore.
And YET! Despite my detesting Emily’s attitude on this page… I kinda feel bad for her. When you put together the context from her perspective, not telling Emily does seem off. Because the only people Rain’s been able to tell her news to so far (at school, no less) was Rudy and Chanel. Rudy’s the boyfriend, so sure, he gets to know her secrets. But who’s Chanel again? Some friend’s girlfriend? “Why does she get to know? I’m the sister figure!”
Sometimes, I honestly miss high school. And then I think of situations like this, and think, “nah, I’m good.”
I can understand Emily's confusion. Not many things could fit the mold of "happy but don't want anyone to know, but tells her boyfriend and a friend's girlfriend anyway". I really have no idea how Emily will react to Rain's secret, but she seems pretty open and aware of everything on the spectrum.
I feel bad for Emily. She has valid points but... Rain's secret if revealed to the wrong person could ruin her life but...so could Emily's secret ruin Emily's life. Oh the drama TY @Jocelyn
I've been reading a while now, and I thought of something.
Have you considered moving Rain to it's own web page? Domains are pretty cheap, and you seem to have a large enough fanbase to gain potential money from hosting ads?
"I met someone who will help me with something. I could tell the others at school because I could tell them in a word that wouldn't make sense without background information you probably don't have."
It's still not a flawless response. I've been working on my communication skills for 40 years, but I'm still autistic.
Any update on the progress of Rain vol.2? did you figure out who chapter B will be about?
