Bringing the Bible to life!
I've read this story a few times and never before did I really ever stop to think about how Leah ever felt about the whole situation. I mean, everyone in the bible is an actual person but sometimes I think that people forget to think of them as people. This story that you wrote actually brought the bible to life! I could practically feel Leah's pain, her sorrow and her want for love.
If I had a husband who hated me . . . I would be heartbroken :'( But now Leah seems so much more alive to me instead of "just that girl that Jacob married who had more sons than Rachel" if you know what I mean. Also, I love how you portrayed Leah's love for Rachel as an older sister. She didn't hate Rachel, she was just sad that Rachel was more loved than her. Anyways! Great story! I loved reading it ^^ and now every time I read the bible it will feel so much more alive then it did before <3 Good job!!
