Nice. I like that minimalist take on the two weeks in between.
Says so much in so few words! Nice one!
OMG, 3 sentences and what a story they tell. Reminds me of the Hemmingway 6 word story.
Very nice indeed!

wonderfully done...in and out with just enough to get our brains turning...
Sumptuous, evocative - I love it, so concise, yet large with intrigue.
Never was so much said in so few words.
Spare and elegant. Love it. LOVE it!!
Nicely concise!
Love it when I am left begging for more. I haven't visited Magpie Tales yet, but I will put it on my list of places to go.
Raw is good.

Not many stories tell so much in so few words...

A romance to hot to forget...so she waits wanting more. Nice.

Precise, concise and to the point but very poignant. Great job.
