RE: It's All a Matter of Perspective: Finish the Story Contest #48
Wow, you threw me right away into an action scene!
I like how Matt ignores the phone in the end as it becomes relative how important things are respectively their importance can change within the occurring events.
He switches on an imprinted habit from his education and training and functions like a straight one. Though the phone buzz triggers the question if finally his date calls and that she was not among the victims - but it remains a little uncertain who actually calls Matt, which I also like.
So yeah, it's a matter of perspective.
Thank you, Erika. Had to resolve his issue--that's our assignment, I believe, in the second half, but also wanted to shake things up in an unexpected direction. I think you and and I share one trait: impatience with waiting for things to happen. We tend to be proactive. Matt was forced to act in the midst of a catastrophe. No Hamlets tolerated in my universe :) Glad you liked where I took the story.
HaHa!! Very much so - I am action driven when situations like this would take place around me. Though not an explosion or some things of this sort, I really don't know, never happened to me. But usually I am not a spectator, either I do something or I leave the scene.
LOL to the Hamlets, too!
Hope you have/had a good morning.
P.S. off the topic: what I really must say is that I am really frustrated for none of the finishthestories of mine to have received a curie. Clearly an ego-thing with me here :-))))
I'm sorry about the curie...it is sometimes a matter of pride. But then, you do so well on this platform. You are so appreciated. And your story is unique. You know it. My husband keeps reminding me that I'm having fun, and that's important. So, I keep my eye on that and every post is a win :)
:) no disagreement. Your husband is right.
I have my proud spots, I admit it. wink.
Thank you, my friend.

I feel the same as you about curie. And Her husband is right. The fun and the interactions with other writers really fill the absent of curie. At last, this is the first time I felt it that way.
