Hey all! Not sure if anyone here is following my story Uneven Odds, but I figured I’d give an update on it now.

So, I had intended on posting this weekend, but I got back from my vacation on Friday and the jet lag is hitting hard. Not to mention I went back on a medication that is known to make me sick and give me headaches after three weeks without it, so I’m a bit under the weather at the moment. I’ve spent most of the day in bed, after barely sleeping last night, despite wanting to be up and work on holiday presents for my staff. Not to mention do the final edit of chapter 7 and post it. But, alas.

I’ll try to see if I can find the time and energy to post tomorrow, but I wouldn’t hold your breath. I have to wake up early for work (curse before school programs… -.-), so if I get as little sleep as I did last night, I doubt I’ll be in any condition to do anything. Especially since I fell asleep when I usually wake up for my morning program, oof.

Anyway. Just wanted to update for anyone who is following that story. :-)

As your guardian, I was instructed well

to make sense of God's love in these fires of hell.

Now I don't expect you to understand,

just to live what little life

your broken heart can.

in spite of the uneven odds, beauty lifts from the earth

Forever crying that the father in the song "Light" is the little boy who suffered the tragic loss of his parents in "Uneven Odds."

from his new guardian telling him:

you're much too young now / so i'll write these words down / "darkness exists to make light truly count"

to the orphan, now a father, to his own child:

though your heart is far too young to realize / the unimaginable light you hold inside

i hope that i’m bothering you! and hopefully that this ask isn’t rude or impatient but i’m wondering when will the next chapter be out?

hi anon!

tbh, I'm lowkey struggling with school at the moment :,)) so that has been put up on the priority list. But the good news is I have a week's break from school so hopefully by this or next week!

I also had a hard time figuring out the pacing of this chapter; since lowkey, this last episode felt A LITTLE rushed! There are certain plot points I have to address and then clear up.

I also had to help with my sister's move to a whole new different country so that's something T^T Got a bit exhausted assembling a bunch of cabinets and drawers.

ANYWAYS thank you sososososososososoosos much for your patience BCS dear lord I know it sucks to wait T^T but THIS FINAL CHAPTER WILL BE PUBLISHED >:DDD

OKAY I LOVE UUUUUU T^T
