oh my golly. what a very strong piece. you have associated the mundane ticking of the clock with an event that no one would ever forget. you’ve got me wanting to punch someone somewhere. =)

Chilling … this is the story from Fiction Friday that I haven’t been able to get out of my mind. The simplicity and the complexity - the macabre. Congratulations on a tight piece of fiction!

I like the way you’ve used the sound of the clock to pace the piece, and I really like that he understands it’s more important for her to think he doesn’t know about >that

I have to tell you Marcia that this story riled us up. We don’t remember, but the body does.

But we’re cool.
