This is my new favorite chapter!!! Everything about the flowof the story, the conversations, how it led to this point, the timing, it all fits. I cannot stress this enough.
To be honest, It always bothered me in the past whenever I see your story with the title The Color of Darkness. It always felt to me like it was some fantasy/horror story but then the synopsis turns out to be YA. And after reading the first Chapter and being impressed, I was going to suggest a title change (how rude of me) into something like "Our Way with Words"
Now with this chapter, I get it now. Darkness as a blank canvas. A metaphor for life. I've written prose before with the same idea. It was entitled "Jetstreams" about the fleetingness of life at the expanse of the sky. Anyway, I also now get why her name had to be Nova. A star in the dark.
Now this is why I get the feeling that Nova may die.
It makes me happy that someone could fall for these two just as much as I have... thanks for the encouragement! I'll definitely keep up on the story so you don't have to wait too agonizingly long to adventure with them
Ahhh the whole concept of this story - I LOVE IT. The conversations between them, the excitement and emotions that was displayed in the words (I love it when they were talking about the sky and stars), I can't help but to keep falling for more of this. Love your writing and how you captured the moments or even project your thoughts and ideas that formed this into a good story! ^_^ *clicks to the next chapter*
