Hello!

Last week, I had written a short story, Sophie in Stockholm, for a writing contest whose prompt was tension. I decided to take it as both physical and emotional, and so the plot I came up with involved a kidnapping situation and some insight on the famous Stockholm syndrome. This week, the prompt given for the same writing contest was your first Tinder date. A plot started building in my mind, and it turned out to be a sequel for the previous storyline. That is the short story I'm sharing with you today, Mike the loner.

I hope you enjoy the read!
