It read very well. Nice use of the italics to represent the internal monologue. Really, very well done. Not sure I like “Two became as if one.” Something about the “as if” in that context doesn’t work right for me. And your last word should probably be “asked.” It will read better that way following the question mark.
Sorry I’ve been behind on this, Kev. Catching up to you now, and I gotta tell you, man, you’re really getting me into this ficlet series. Awesome stuff!
