A timely and relevant story for our world-wide present situation, and for the foreseeable future. The sadness and sense of missing friends is real. Best wishes for your entry.

Comment from Rosemary Everson1
Life has really changed since the pandemic. We do not get to see our friends like we use to...many stay home. You feel like a lost friend when we don't recognize each other with the mask on.

Thank you, Rosemary, for sharing my story. You understand the situation very well.

But I will always wear my mask, if needed, to protect myself, and the other person.
Comment from Gypsy Blue Rose
Excellent entry for the Lost - Flash Fiction writing prompt contest. Good flash fiction form. Good story and plot development. The characters are believable.

You took a slightly different angle with the writing prompt and came up with a great story. We all have been a bit lost for the last year and a half. This is nicely done writing. Tons of luck in the contest.

Hmm, okay that was a slightly different take on the lost contest. Having someone getting lost in thought is an interesting take, and I like the way you blended current events about Covid, and the vaccines into it. Adds to the realism.

Comment from Ritasher
Ohh, your story illustrates the pandemic life and feelings so well! I absolutely enjoyed your smooth, easy-to-read writing style. Adore the comparison of the snow to a whipped cream. And the way you describe happiness or excitement with "wagging my tail behind me." Hahah. It's little things like that, that make a story a good one. Also, it's another proof that much action is not needed for a story to be enjoyable! Well done, dear Author.

The world drifts but we remain, until we don't. Life is strange at the moment, there is a new norm, where we once had on invisible masks, we now wear visible ones, I was taken by the contrasting masks, and the masks off, of familiar faces in your great post, well done, blessings and good luck, Roy

Comment from Susan Newell
This is a good story about how Covid and all the restrictions have made us all a little bit lost without our normal routines and social lives. We're all about ready to claw our way back to normalcy, and hopefully escape the current tyranny of fear.
MW-U was a coffee house in Claremont -- I think it would be better to spell out Morning Wake-Up if you can finesse the word count
