TW: anxiety, depression

I’ll be honest, I sped through this in part because initially Pen’s anxiety was starting to trigger my own but once things mellowed out and I found myself more than halfway through, I was rooting for Pen to succeed and for all the characters to find what they were looking for (literally and figuratively). In that vein please give me an Angel sequel. Not only must I see what happens next for Pen and the restaurant but Angel’s love story was so perfectly teed up it would be a crime not to follow through.
