Mr. Pertillar: Nicely done. I think you've managed to craft this very close to the line between revealing what should be revealed and leaving the rest to the readers' imaginations. Several stand-out lines, but the first among them for me is 'I found out I can do without deceit.' There is no condemnation here, no finger-pointing, perhaps because the deceit was coming from two directions, and had a certain needed (even craved) dependability. There is forgiveness, coupled with a 'lessons learned' attitude that supports forgetting the transgression without forgetting the lesson behind it all. Even feels a little like an anthem. We won't get fooled again, but without Roger Daltry's trademark scream. Many thanks, G
