Title: Chapter 40 Facing the Truth

Wow, Brenda, you've spun quite an intricate tale of the joining together of many families...I love how you've told such a story of how we are sum total of our experiences...I love that you're not introducing characters for drama's sake...but each of the characters have personalities and take this story in so many interesting directions...I feel so spoiled...now it's going to be a killer trying to wait each week for a new update when I was so used to getting them on the regular...but I know life beckons...but I really like to thank you for bringing your story here to The Chamber and I got the pleasure of reading it thusfar...

When I first started reading this I'd thought I'd feel uncomfortable reading the various stereotypes and biases we all possess but you know what...that's what makes this story so realistic...they are coming from an honest place inside of us all...I feel the characters' pains and preconceived notions of all of our differences and I love that you're giving them a chance to work through those issues in a realistic yet entertaining pace...I could go on at great length about each of the characters but I wanted to take this opportunity to tell you how very grateful and inspired I am at this wonderful work of art...thanks again...look forward to future updates...

Thank you.  Your review means a lot to me.  I don't know why my mind goes in so many directions (Like a soap opera) but it does.  I've had some readers criticize me for that, but I can't help it.  LOL.  I write mainly for stress relief and I was shocked at the response I got here on the Chamber.  I am glad that people like my work and I welcome all reviews good and bad because they help me to grow.  We all have to work through our prejudices and the first step is admitting that we have them, then we can move forward.  Writing interracial stories brings it all to the forefront and we can recognize and laugh at ourselves and grow if we allow ourselves to grow that is.  Thanks again.  I've written chapter 41, but today is my beta's birthday so I don't want to rush her.  Hopefully I will have it out by this weekend!

Love this story so far but grandpa is a mess. He needs a reality check. He's mean and spiteful. Glad Hannah is getting some love. Tameka just needs to tell the truth and roll with the punches.

Title: Chapter 40 Facing the Truth

I am sure you will do a wonderful job and I can't wait til the next chapter.

Meka needs help not only from her doctor but from her cuz if only she could open up to Val but there has been so much dirt swept under the rug that it would take a bull dozer to really clear it all out.

I know Meka has just wanted to be love and she has many self-esteem issues as Val in fact I think she is far off worse then Val where as Val had her Grandma Mavis to fall back on and get all the love she needed Meka had no one.  I feel sorry for her.  I wish she could find the courage to tell Val and Mat what really happened and who is behind what happened at the club.  I don't know if Det. Grant is on the up and up yet.

Hannah was fired up when Emily confronted her about her date and Emilio came over to introduce himself he is definitely the one to keep Hannah in check. I wonder what daddy dearest would think of Emilio let me stop I already know what he would think he didn't even like Gloria and I am sure is was not because of her lack of receptionist skills.

I wish that Ms Emily even though I love her to death would beary the hatchet and I don't mean in Hannah's skull either but let by gones be by gones.

Wonderful update.

Thank you!

Happy writing!



Author's Response:

Thanks for your in depth review.  I love it.  I am sure that Emily and Hannah who both love Matheson will come together once Dad's little deed has been revealed.

I must confess that I haven't even started on Chapt. 41.  I've been too busy bringing my stuff over to the Chamber.  So I know I must get busy.  You all's input helps because it gives me ideas! 

Thanks again!

Matheson will not be happy that his father know that his grandfather was responsible for the attach on Val and that ho Tameka.  But he will forgive him, but his grandfather is different story.  Brenda I just love this story, and I will be patient.  Great chapters!!!

Was a coincidence tha Hannah beau's name is Emilio-male version of Emily?

When is a Tameka going to tell the truth or is she going to make Matheson discover it?

I am going to miss the multiple update :) but I do hope you update soon

Author's Response:

OMG!  I didn't even think about Emilio/Emily LOLOLOLOL!!!!  I just wanted a sexy Latino male for her!

Now you've got my juices flowing here and my minds working...

Thanks for the review!

Title: Chapter 40 Facing the Truth

I really don't care if Matheson grandfather is an old man. I hope that he will pay for what he had done in the end. What he did was seriously wrong and dangerous. Tamika was RAPED and Val was almost rape to. This just can't go unpunished. I'm surprised that after William had revealed to Gregory about what he had done to separate Val and Matheson he still allows his father to go to Matheson wedding. A girl was RAPED!!! And I don't care that he is family. Just because he is family doesn't mean that Matheson has to tolerate his grandfathers selfishness. Its obvious that he wasn't thinking about family when he was planning to ruin his own grandchild relationship. And he is not at all affected or sorry for what he had done.

And as for Tamika, it may sound harsh but I don't feel sorry for her at all. If it wasn't because she got raped she wouldn't have care about ruining Val and Matheson relationship. Even now she still haven't told Val or Matheson the truth about what had happened. I hope that when Val finds out that she will stop talking to Tameka. I know that Tameka is still her cousin, but Val is not a saint. Therefore she doesn't have to forgive Tameka right away. It will take time. Yes Tamika is going trough a lot right now, but that's her own fault. She had brought this on herself. Karma is a bitch!! I'm not saying that her being rape is her fault, because it isn't. But if she for a second has consider her own cousin's feeling, she wouldn't have been in this kind of predicament.

I know that we have to learn to forgive, but lets face it. Some things just can't be forgiven. You can't apologize it away, you can't make it right. Maybe with time.  But definitely not when its still so fresh. And especially if someone had gotten badly hurt. Val's cousin will have to live with this scar for the rest of her life.



Author's Response:

Thanks for your review.  Tameka is suffering because her bad decision.  She knows that it'll be all over once Val finds out what she did.  She was going to tell her and take her lumps until William Sr had her kidnapped so now she's worried that if he finds out that his little shot didn't work, he'll kill her, so she's keeping quiet (for now.)

Gregory is torn because it is his father, but he's also worried about his mother who is in poor heath.  William Sr. has put him in a lose lose situation so he hasn't made up his mind exactly how he's going to handle his father.

Thanks for the in depth review.  I really appreciate it.  I know I should get started on 41, but I have a busy day here at work.  (LOL)
