Love how this shows uncertainty and certainty co-existing, and captures that even when unsure, we can put one foot in front of the other (literally and figuratively) to step into the unknown. And I appreciate how the entire story unfolds over a walk "at a steady pace", a fitting metaphor for how so much in life rests on the ability to find a way to keep walking and going forward, in spite of all the fluctuating feelings and bends in the road; and noting when you see those "key landmarks" in life that indicate you're moving in the right direction.
More! More! Please! The imagery and building sense of anticipation is wonderful. There is a thoughtful internal rhythm and a good balance between physical action and internal monologue. Its compelling, introspective tone invites the reader to walk alongside Eva and share her quiet tension.
