I preferred Shock of Birth, but this one still left me unexpectedly blowing into the kitchen roll too. It’s a low simmer that jumps into a rolling boil in the very last moments.
cool concept but wasn't really engaging
Wow!What happens after the life defining moment?We see here.Super cool story!
Delightful
Listened to this on LeVar Burton Reads. Shorter even for this podcast, but it was very well written, emotional, and magical all at the same time.

Listened to this short story on LeVar Burton Reads and enjoyed it. It’s a small story in scope, but it was interesting and made sense as focusing on a part of this couple’s ongoing life without having to tell their entire story.
Super short story, that explores how a once in a lifetime miracle leaves an echo, a kind of bondage. This is one of those sci-fi stories that is unconcerned with the tech/magic and uses it only as a vehicle for exploring the science of human psychology and relationships. Extremely satisfying, and feels complete. 👍👍
Levar's reading of this was great. I wasn't in to the actual story until the end. NowI want to know more.
Listened to this as part of the LeVar Burton Reads popdcast series.A story about a couple who experiences something supernatural, maybe even miraculous and how they mentally proces it in different ways and how that difference erodes their relationship.I don't think I quite grasped the deeper meaning of the story, but I actually didn't mind. Even the surface layer is very well written and I can return to this story at a point in the future and see if I get something different from reading it.
