Each short chapter gave you a glimpse about what happened to Marco (each chapter was 5-years apart). Life was not easy and they drifted apart - at one point, Marco discovered that Scott was living as homeless guy - but that red thread of forever love was strong between them.įor a short story, this one packs a punch and hauntingly beautiful. Scott was sent from foster home to foster home. Marco dealt with taking care of his grandmother and two younger sister, working multiple jobs just to get by. Marco and Scott were best friends - when he was 12-years-old, Marco was given a watch as a Christmas gift by Scott and in return, he made a promise that he would save Scott from his life and they would leave to Alaska. ![]() Kim Fielding's Alaska is an example of story about true-and-forever-love, that when a person was the one for you, he/she would be in your heart and mind and soul, even if you're being apart for years. ![]()
