I really enjoyed rereading it. It was much darker than I remember though, and quite a but sadder too. I feel like it could've been a little bit longer. That would've enabled the ending to pack an even harder punch.

Kind of needlessly sexist and sexual. Feels like something that tries to be deep but misses the mark.
