Discussion of "Dirty Laundry chapter 3" by shadinah

Hey! I hadn't been paying attention for a while, and just look at all the work you did! :-) Great continuation of the story - gives us more details about the kids and helps us to know more about them and their relationship to the mom (loved the bit about the 'puddles' - and wow, did the description of the little girl sound familiar!) ;) Anyway, you've left us with a good shot of suspense - keep up the good work!!!

Thanks, Darlin' - still waiting for you to get busy... ;)
And yeah, it's best to write what you know, right?

shadinah~ Bravo! Once again you skillfully dovetailed every day commonalities with the uncommon mystery at hand. Example, the interrogation: “Uh, baf’room!” He replied, flinging his arm in the general direction. I cringed at how close it came to upsetting the water bottle on the stand beside him.” Mom can play Agatha Christie all she wants, but she’s still Mom.
I am really into this storyline…its simplicity is absorbing. Mostly because I know that underneath, the answers most likely are anything but simple. And once again, you leave us with a cliffhanger…which again is not so far fetched (teenage girl sneaks out of house at night). Only, because of the lingering mystery, we can only imagine where she has gone and what she is doing. Vampire? Gang? Female teenage fight club? Animal experimentations in the neighbors shed? Or is she innocent of the bloody shirt, (yet still guilty of sneaking out)? Maybe it’s the coach potato husband. What is going on in that basement anyway?
I see that this is the last of the three chapters. Don’t leave us hanging!!!!

I echo dogdeity's curiosity, and the appeal for me is comparable. I'm very interested to see where this goes.

Awesome! Unexpected and heart wrenching twist. Did
She sneak out or is it more sinister? Lovely writing
And a great story.
