Lemme guess. Chloe sniffs the trash and scratches the bag, letting Chris out. Otherwise, I don’t see how Chris gets out. Or maybe Rachel doesn’t realize how heavy the trash bag is and accidents drops it. It lands on something sharp and a small rip is present. Then Chris escapes from that.

Basically Chris went from stuck in a drain, to stuck in a trash bag. I actually thought one of them would find him, but it’s back to square one but in a different location.

When the cereal dropped, I thought Rachel would scoop them back up into the box because she doesn’t want to waste food. Then we get a scene where she pours out Chris into a bowl, pours milk in him, and then we get a close call with her swallowing him.

I felt as though this chapter was a bit dialogue heavy. Last chapter had lots of dialogue but there was progress as she shrink that other guy. This chapter, not much happened while Chris is shouting for help.

Also, I’m pretty sure Chris should be growing a little bit, haha. It’s also a new day. I forgot what size he is. 1/8 of an inch still? I understand the small size helps make unaware believable, but that could happen with 1 inch also. Instead of Mrs. Carson and Rachel hearing a “buzzing noise”, they could maybe think they saw a bug, and shrug their shoulders doubting themselves.

It’s funny how all the reviews seem to want different things. I’m riding the Mrs. Carson train, one other person wants Rachel to be aware of Chris, and another wants a giantess Shannon. Not sure how you can appease everyone, but I think in general, some action would help in the next chapter.

My favorite part this chapter was when Janet was checking the laundry and Chris basically got an up skirt view of her. Then he had some intimate thoughts about how good looking she is. I love that, and I’m wondering how he would react if Mrs. Carson catches him peeking. Haha.

Right now, I just hope he gets out of the trash and back into the house. Chris literally traveled everywhere in this house and somehow didn’t get found. I think something must change or maybe Chris grows a bit, so it feels different next time.

Either way, I still love where this story is going and I can’t wait for the next chapter!

Author's Response: First off, I want to tell you how much I look forward to reading your reviews; you always give me the best feedback on my work and I really appreciate. Secondly, I also want to tell you how much I appreciate your honesty in your reviews. I’m not perfect by any means, and constructive criticism is always helpful moving forward. In fact, to show my appreciation, I’ve got something very special in store for you, but that’s all I’ll say for now. 😉

Now, on to your review:
I know that sometimes Chris seems to just go from one situation to another, and that it can get a little bit repetitious; there’s just so much I want to fit into the story that it sometimes seems to go on and on. My issue currently is that I’ve already finished the outline for the story, and with the end in sight, I’m trying to set up for certain important plot points, some of which have been planned out for over a year. Because I want to reach the end, it occasionally makes it difficult to go from one plot point to the next, and what unfortunately happens is scenarios tend to run together. I really want to finish this story and move on to other projects—I’ve been working on it for almost a year and a half— but at the same time, I also don’t want to don’t want to sacrifice the overall quality of the story. As I’ve stated previously, if I’d known how long this story was going to be when I started, I’d have done things a lot differently.

I’d thought about a vote scene with Rachel in this chapter, but since I technically did that in the alternate chapter, I opted for something different. Being swept into the trash is going to set up the next couple of chapters, and I do hope you like the outcome.

I agree there were a lot of details in the last couple of chapters, and if you’ll notice, the last two chapters have been a little longer than others. This is primarily due to me wanting to move things along and get through the rest of the week in the story. I try not to make the chapters too long, but I also don’t want to drag things out into multiple chapters if I don’t have to.

I’m glad you liked that little scene with Chris ogling Mr. Carson. FYI: that wasn’t just for effect.

Lastly, I can assure you things are going to change in the next couple of chapters, but you’ll just have to wait. Thanks for the review!

I love your very descriptive writing and you know how to make suspense. I am invested in the story, dying to see how everything will play out. I just BEG, please make Rachel aware of Chris! So painfull to see he pass through all these ordeals and not have a rest. Please, Chris deserves to be noticed by her already TT_TT

Thank you very much for all the effort you put in writing these long and detailed chapters. I am quite literally begging you for more XDD. You are, in my humble opinion, one of the best authors in the site :D
