Comment from Patty Mazzurco
This story is engaging and humorous, highlighting a common marital scenario with a clever twist. The build-up to the punchline is effective, leading to a humorous revelation that Charles's wife was not the one with the hearing problem.

I didn't expect that ending. Very well done. Wishing you the best in the contest. You not only do great on your longer works, but you have excelled also on the shorter works such as this.

Comment from karenina
Hah! This is hysterical! I tried to imagine where you were going with this flash and you still caught me unaware! Somebody needs a hearing test...but it's not the wife!
This should do great in the contest!

Comment from Spitfire
What a twist. I didn't see it coming. You know how to tell a cute story. This is one that a lot of writers on this site can connect to. So far, I can hear pretty good.

I think I've heard or seen that one or a similar one before, but it doesn't matter as I still enjoyed it. It fits well into the 75 word format, and many people will relate well to it. Thanks for sharing and best wishes for your entry.

Thank you Wendy. I remember hearing something a bit like it and thought it was funny. I'm pretty sure what I heard or read was a longer story, and I tried to adapt it and cut it down to size. I hope my version is different enough.
