Good, but I did prefer the unhappy ending, but “Well, at least for twenty-seven more years, thirteen more days, forty-two more minutes, and eleven more seconds.

Ten more seconds

Nine more seconds…

Eight more seconds…”

Was a pretty fantastic ending. And Curtis, you are now my 2nd favorite author, right behind Edgar Allen Poe.

in addition to..well..everyone i read both endings. i must say i thoroughly enjoyed both, however, i preferred the unhappy one the twist reminded me of and old “Twilight Zone” or “Tales From the Darkside” episode which are still my favorite TV shows ever. even though i was born much past their prime…
where were you when they were hiring writers haha

Very, VERY, entertaining to read.

Fantastic work once again! I read both endings, i love them both :3
The unhappy had a little bit more to it but the happy had a pretty fair ending.
I love the plots and the twists. Certainly nothing i”m good at writing!

i read both. liked both but like everyone else i enjoyed the unhappy ending more. i think the desreption of her crushed body and flames licking at her made me think that it sud be true horror. it is full of sadness for the man though x( i feel badd for him…..i dont no wat i would do without my love.

I read both, and i’d have to say i like the unhappy one better cuz it has more of twist to it. It kinda reminds me of the twist to the movie “The Uninvited”, but i like this story better than that movie.You have the imagination of a complete genious Curtis. You are now my favourite author.

so……………….. I read the both! Unhappy is more great than this happy… I think is a completely sad as should be! so sweet storie, you know, a sadness with one bit of sugar words. I read to the sound of Madeleine Peyroux! cos the weather of the way ask something so so so… and ah I remember only how I want my house far of city.. the city turn me crazy, noises, car, smoke.. I had one garden of roses! the smell is really very amazing. Guy I m “ow oh” with this sweet tragic storie =) I think maybe one day I dance in this way, plume sugar, simple connection and clear water like a the levity of cloud and the next cold rain in the skin of the memory, I always try but in the road I change… cos always I do a complex crazy connection and confusion…tragic things sometimes are blocked by the brain.. have a great dawn my Lord. =)

Am I the only one who read both endings?

But wait, I’m confused. Did Rose die 27 years later?
