I could clearly see the spark already between Kendra and the man on the train, even though they only met for a brief few moments. It'll be really interesting to see what happens next and if she does meet him again. This could be another great start to a novel. I enjoyed reading it.

thanks, Jacob! I've had so many ask me to continue the story. I was really surprised. I might do a short book during October because I have another book the third in the series in mind for the November contest. Can't believe I am thinking ahead that far already.
Smiles, Carol

Well, I'm guess I'm a little slow, but why in the world would it matter if she wore shoes or not? I mean, it's that much less to have to take off. LOL. Okay, now I'm being bad. Great job a always! Thanks for sharing.

Comment from BethShelby
This is cute story. It reminds me of times I lost a heel and had to take my shoes off and go bare-footed. I used to wear really skinny heels to work. Remember those grates in the street of drainage areas. You could never step on them wearing high heels. I never met a man that way though, but I've broken more than one heel.

Yes, that's what came to mind when I was writing the story. I had an idea of continuing the story and he showed up the next day minus shoes...My mind is crazy!

New beginnings. I enjoyed reading this very short post. You could expand this into a beautiful romance novel. I see it developing. I do hope you follow through.

Thanks again.

It would be adorable, if that happened. I can see a barefoot wedding in their future.

I'm not real good at putting the romance into words though...I do it once in a while but mostof the time it's in my heart. Thanks so much, Harry.

Honey bunch you are on a tear. I broke my rule again for you. This was just perfect. I would not change one single solitary thing. I adored it. If we were not similar in age, I would say I want to be you when I grow up! Fanatastic stuff. A nosey question, who are you leaving your writings to when you depart? I am leaving my stuff to my youngest who writes himself. So far. Make sure you give it to someone who will cherish it. I think my kid will be shocked at some of the stuff he did not know about. If some poor soul that I was kind to, who just happens to have bookoos of money dies without family and leaves it all to me. I will set up a better site. One with blind readers from publishing houses, poetry sites, true life magazines. and such. With a big section for humor, horror and crime. Just saying..Karen

This feels like the start of a sweet romance novel. It got me wondering more about who the lady is and who the hero is. I think more would be revealed in future chapters!

Are you tempting me, Helen? I don't know how good I would be about writing a romance novel. I'm really sappy as we all know. but it is a thought to consider.
Smiles, Carol

I'm not tempting you - I thought you already wrote it! You're always so good at writing about emotions and senses.
Comment from Julie Helms
This is SO romantic!! A beautifully done flash story with a funny premise (the broken heel). You may now go ahead and write the whole novel 'cause I want to see this happily ever after in action!

Comment from Carol Hillebrenner
Good flash fiction. You got a whole story in a very few words. Kendra wanted to get home but almost didn't make the train. Her savior turned out to have great blue eyes and she planned to be wearing shoes when she met him on the morrow.
