I got chills from reading this. Very moving.

LOVED this comparison. Some great lines in here as well. One of my favorites:

"You don't tell him about the three shallow graves because you don't want him to hate you and because sometimes people deserve better than the truth."

Ain't that the truth. Absolutely adored this piece!

I love the parallels you do between them! This is why they worked so well as friends initially I think.

Beautiful! I feel like second person allows for a lot more stylistic writing, and this was done perfectly! Great job!
