What makes for a "flash fiction story?" Fewer words? Done on the hurry? I'm challenged if there are parameters re: rhyme or prose or is it a short composition? Whatever. This surely is one.

I think in this life the return of someone deceased would be of enormous help to those left behind, of course if this actually happened we wouldn't need faith to keep us to keep going, beautifully written, good luck, blessings Roy

A well-paced story. The images are clear. The dialogue stays on point. The ending is geared to make supernatural seem comforting. Being a wiseass I would have his parents come back to nag at him one last time as a deja vu thing.

Thanks for a good read.

A well written story. An interesting idea. I had hoped for a little more action in the story though I know flash fiction is difficult to write because of the constraints. All the best to you in the contest

You chose a good picture to go along with your story. This piece could be greatly enhanced by way of careful proofing. Your story contains mixed tenses, missing letters, and confusing sentence structure. Best wishes.

The objective correlative of your work reminisces a supernatural exposition to Gregg that he needs to move on with his life after the demise of his parents.

The work highlights his sad disposition that necessitated his late parents to appear to him to ameliorate the situation.

The work earns its texture through its effective use of anecdotes synonymous with an existing synergy between the dead and the living.

Excellent work. Bravo.
