Hah I love and felt this very clever x
Thanks 🙂
Ha ha, oh dear 😦
Quick, delete some old stuff! Or maybe there’s a bit of relief mixed in there, like when you’re both excited and scared about doing something and then the decision is taken out of your hands.
Yes, maybe fate stepped in to fill up her mailbox 😉
Oh, no! Not a full mailbox!
A bit like not taping the end of a movie 😉
Hah! A great ending. Lovely.
Claire
Thanks Claire 🙂
Well told!
Thank you 🙂
P.S. What’s the x part? I don’t text. Is it a texting thing?
x is a kiss. Its a bit of a social nightmare thingy, as in is it too familiar to put a kiss at the end of a text. Are you just being friendly or does it mean more? 🙂
Oh! now it makes sense. Thanks! (I’ve got to get with this modern world.) Signed – the dinosaur.
You really built up the suspense … I was there breath bated wondering what was going to happen … and then the great ending! 😉 Great write!
She’ll be okay. She’s careful. Should never x too soon.
I felt anxsious along with her or him…but that ending, my immediate reaction was, “are you kidding?!” that’s how much you got me hooked…very clever:)
Great idea, skilfully executed. 🙂
What a great idea, a pleasant surprise.
I was hooked, too. Fantastic idea. I loved the back and forth texts, and the ending was perfect.
Dear Helen, Proof positive that you are brilliant! You are so darn good at this! Love it, love it, love it. Nan 🙂
Arghh!! Ha ha. Love the emoticons and x’s. Yes, they say so much, don’t they? Or, should I say, their absence does, more than anything. What will happen next? I think she will be deleting some files. So funny!
Yup…been there done that!
It’s funnier to read than to experience, I’m j/s 😉
Dear Helen,
I felt the tension in this and then the ending…ouch! Very clever.
Shalom,
Rochelle
Yay! Loved this. Stylish, sharp and fun to read. Well played, Midgers!
