What a lovely story! I'm a sucker for a good infidelity fic and was completely won over by your Millicent within the first few paragraphs. This whole story felt very true to life, with the flawed but engaging characters, complex relationships, and the circle of friends and work colleagues around them both. I think my favourite thing about this wa the scene between Ginny and Millicent - it's so rare for both women to portrayed as sympathetic and multi-dimensional, let alone for them to get along, but I can completely see Ginny doing this. I really enjoyed it!
