Great story for the contest. I love the way you started and ended the story with the same sentence. Nice dialogue throughout the story. Well done and good luck with the contest.

You will get attention on this one. And at the end, you need to calm down, is to the point. I enjoyed reading your poem. It shows you have a great imagination. I wish you the best. Take care, good luck.

Thank you for sharing this contest entry with us. I enjoyed reading and the ending was cute.

"You need to calm down, "hissed Paula. (ending quotation marks need to be moved closer to the comma after down)

Hahahaha.... yes indeed - a classic case of 'the pot calling the kettle black'. Each situation had its flashpoint for anger to erupt. The dialogue between them is handled very well. I like how the line "You need to calm down" opens and closes the story.

I really enjoyed reading your flash fiction story. You did a great job with the prompt, very creative. You created very good imagery. The image you chose works perfectly.

If you had a book out I would read it. Sometimes when reading there is a state of mind that hits a reader when the writing is good. It is as if one can trust there will be no mistakes and simply just relax into the writing in a comfy armchair. To laugh or cry, matters not. I sense your writing, and this is a good piece of writing. I smiled through.
My best wishes.
Have a pleasant Sunday.

    Thanks for reading and your kind review. I appreciate both! I do have a book out, it is called, Rabbit--A Southern Summer. It is available on Amazon. It currently has top ratings (5) in three categories, overall novel, Southern humor and Coming of Age. I would love your feedback on the book. Regards, Bill

Well written. Good story.
You made me feel emotions - means good writing.
You gave me a visual of why I so dislike type A's.
You wanna be a cop - no!
You wanna be boss - no!
You wanna pitch a fit over trivia - please do it during the dating process so potential mates can dump you straight-away (as the Brits would say).
Best wishes.

Funny how fast the tables can turn, eh? A typical and believable slice of life. I like that you used dialogue to keep the story moving. I'm not sure I care for either of the characters, but that fits well with your theme of manufactured calamities.

Best of luck with the Committee, Bill.

Peace, Lee

"You need to calm down, "hissed Paula. --spacing issue just before 'Paula'.

    Hi Lee--always glad when you stop by. Congratulations for your win on best western story. I've told you before that I've always enjoyed your western posts! Are you warm up North yet? 72 degrees here today. Time to break out the shorts and T-shirts.

    Rub it in, why don't you, Bill. It was 7 degrees when I got up this morning. I'd move south, but I'm afraid my accent and my Red Sox cap would give me away.
reply by the author on 20-Feb-2022
    Gotta tell you, lot's of snowbirds here. The accent would be fine. The hat....we could get you a Braves cap,
reply by humpwhistle on 20-Feb-2022
    Uh, what about my ponytail? I know, I know, tuck it under my Braves cap. I suppose you know they used to be the Boston Braves, right?

    Indeed. Just walked my dog wearing shorts. Another day of 70 +

Boy, what a shock at the end, never judge a book by its cover, we'll never really know a person till they encounter others on the road will we? Just loved your flash fiction, the ending clinched it as all flash fictions should, well done, blessings Roy
