My thinking was that the story did have a happy ending. Elena really did act like she was rebelling for the very first time in her life. Her mom's reaction indicated to me that this was new to mom as well. I saw hope.
DPR - Did you see the irony in that line? Because I judged just about everyone I saw that night. Including me.
I was telling LSPE that I simply had to write this one out because little Elena was in my head since the release day. Couldn't get her face out of my brain.
I appreciate the comments. Ultimately, I think it's a happy story. I'm hopeful for lil Elena.
