A short story that gives a new perspective on the things we value in our lives and how it is perceived by others. Moving and poignant. All the stars for its sheer originality.

This is a short story, a very short story.
7 pages.
More pages are used in a letter....right?
I have read short stories that pulled a punch but with this one?
It’s left me confused and scratching my head

Thank you Zoey!!!!
This is a 7 page short story. It’s definitely powerful. It mystified me in that I kept visualizing ‘something else’ ....
I wasn’t sure ‘who’ the man was who cried at night.
“He won me that day, but he was also hurt and bled on me.”
“ I tried my best to wrap myself tightly to him, not to shield him so much from the cold, because it wasn’t even winter yet, but the shield him from the world that have hurt him”.
Here is where I got confused:
“ I can tell when he’s angry because his stomach rumbles inside me”.
The story changes again...
I admit being somewhat confused-
Oh I understand there is loss -deep loss...
but I have questions!!!!!!!!!
It cost me 99 cents.
Zoey.... help!!! I need an interpreter.
Sooooooo embarrassing!
If someone else buys this and reads it - please tell me if you understand ‘who’ the person is who cries.
If I tell you what I think or thought - we’ll... I can’t in this tiny review.
As for the book COVER...
I thought of Paul, my husband immediately. He broke 11 bones in his right hand 3 years ago. My relationship to his hand - and all hands have never been exactly the same. It’s remarkable what specialist hand surgeons hand therapists do for a living!!! Mind boggling incredible to me.

I’m not sure what to say about this story. It’s only a few pages long and I read it through KU.
I’m sitting here thinking I’d have liked it longer but if it was longer would it have the impact that it did?
Who was the man? Who was telling the story? I have to question my sanity for even trying to review this book. For making me sit and think, for wanting to talk about this book I can’t help but give this four stars.
