Wow!
🙂 Thanks.
That was great. I intended only to read the first paragraph or so before I had to get going on something else, but ended up reading the whole thing. A haunting story in such a small space. I wish I could write short stories like that. Everything I write seems to want to become a novel. 🙂
Thanks for sharing.
Thanks, Rob. 🙂
