Kimber Lee and Emilio do have a few issues hanging, unresolved things resulting from Kimber's sickness then empowerment, and their insuing separation. And soon the story's really gonna… Well, hope you stick around :)

Artwise, I ran across some pieces on the net that use more prominent line work combined with ‘looser’ watercolor, so thought I'd try that. Like everything I've tried, I like it and don't like it at the same time haha

Thanks for reading everyone!

@Banes: Ha, you lost me...! :)

Hey! That's just my natural expression!

@Plymayer: Thanks!; @bravo: Thanks! Yeah, I agree about the last panel - a completely vertical panel would have worked. There's no real need to see the house in the background. And ex's stares... when one of mine stares I think serial killer haha - I just try not to look :)

Good layout and you manage to do a lot on this page without it being too crowded. But that little slant in the last panel should be angled up a tad so it dosen't look like Kimber is stuffed in as an afterthought. And I have to agree about the emotional infidelity bit. Though the way one of my exes stares has been a little unnerving.

Love the art work and layout.

@Peipei: Haha I suspect you're right on all accounts :)

Lol! Soccoro must be on to something, and ah, maybe she just doesn't want to feel awkward around the couple, since she had some history with Emilio. xD

@Banes: Emotional infidelity seems to bother women more than men. Socorro and Emilio used to be lovers, of course, but everyone has moved on from that (I doubt Kimber Lee would've went along with this arrangement if she was uncertain of that). I'm sure there's still have some physical attraction but no one is stupid enough to act on them (hopefully haha). Even so, that Emilio is mixing it up with the family really well while being a bit distant with her probably bothers Kimber Lee more than anything. Not exactly emotional infidelity on his part, but something they need to address for the story to go on :) As for the page layout, thanks, but don't hesitate to say if a page is ever a bit too busy or hard to follow. Nothing wrong with helpful criticism to make something better...

Love these moments between the characters...I was actually worried for a minute there, that Soccoro and Emilio were moving towards some shenanigans! Looks like not, thankfully. Looking forward to what's next! Cool page layout again - it looks complicated, but it's actually very easy to follow and lets you have more "beats" to each page.
