Can't believe I didn't see this one. So short yet so powerful. I really wish it was longer though, yet the ending and introduction are amazing the way they are.

Intresting.

wow very nice!

IT WAS SAD BUT GOOD

So, I prayed for a miracle, and what did I get, a John who loves to bite. He paid extra and smiled. He told me, "That was more than a love bite."
I just smiled my usual "it's okay" smile and helped straighten his tie. I hid the cash with the rest of the nights takings and hit the sack.
I rose, feeling unusually fresh and energetic, I glanced in the bathroom mirror on my way to the toilet. I braked to a stop and took another look, the bruises from the weekend were missing and my ribs ceased to shriek as I took a deep breath. I didn't give it a thought and finished my morning toilet with a shower.
I packed the kids lunch boxes and sent them off with a kiss.
Instead of taking the bus to the Mall I decided to walk. I met Mrs. Green as she came with her pooch round the corner. Normally the mutt yaps at me, but today must have been an off-day for him as he couldn't get further enough away from me and ended up towing the old bat down the street.
I had noticed something the moment I awoke, I could smell everything, and I noticed each one of my kids smelled different. Out on the street, the traffic was pretty light but the air was clogged with fumes.
I convinced myself it must be my sinuses acting up, but as I approached the mall my sesnses reeled. Flesh, I could smell flesh, red meat, bloody raw meat. For some reason I headed for the butchery and took deep breaths through my nose. My mouth watered at the sight of that beautiful red, red flesh.
I bought a pound of liver two t-bone steaks and headed home...

That was excellent, but i do think it should be longer. I was just getting into it!

A few have asked if this will be a longer story. If anyone wants to, they can continue this as an intro. It should prove to be interesting to see where it leads to.

You always write the best stuff. Will there be more on this one?

Yes, it is a tough cruel world out there.

one way i judge a book is if i get a mental movie of it playing in my head. most times it takes a few pages to start. and sometimes not at all.it happened right away for me on this on. you have a great gift with word. i loved it and i loved to cover to by the way
