      From a box of chocolates to sour grapes, is what Conrad Justice experienced. Did his curiosity cause his marriage, his job, his sanity, to leave a safe haven?

       

      Emotional, Suspenseful and thrilling story. The twist at the end was so powerful. I like how you left us to wonder if there was a curse at the end, or if Conrad did kill himself.

       

      Another great story.

      I'm loving the set up of this. The opening alone instantly grabs your attention, giving you just enough of a glimpse of Conrad Justice for you to get a feel for his character. :)

      The introspective about how people, over time, can sometimes resemble their spouse or their pets, and whether they could resemble their homes in the same way, was interesting. I'm prone to thinking, "yes", since your home and the things you keep in it, often reflect the kind of person you are. ;) I also liked the reference to how, when we're told not to do something, we're all the more tempted to do it.

      Very nicely written, following Justice's downward spiral, and the aftermath. :)
