Finish this story. I know the format of a ficlet can be pretty confining, but you work well within its limits. Your imagery is very good. If I may ask, where are you getting your Masters?

Is he going to figure it out? I agree with FourSeven, please finish it!

I’m also wondering if that river from part 1 is a gun on the wall.

Thanks for the compliments! I’m currently finishing the story in draft form. What began as a 1024 story has blown up into pages and pages. :) Thanks again for the support. I’ll post more later today. By the way, I hope to graduate with a master’s degree in English from FIU in Miami, FL.
