How much longer can he endure but then there is this postman or has it taking all those years to see something he hasn't allowed himself to see. Great Flash. Isn't that a perfect end to a Flash?

Hey Birgit! Thanks for reading and taking the time to comment ☺️ I really appreciate it.

I'd love to think this qualifies as 'Flash Fiction' -but I'm not sure.., I guess I need to learn more about the genre now don't I?

Thanks again! ♥️

Honestly I am probably even more confused as to what Flash Fiction really is. I think many people are but I keep trying as it seems the rules keep changing 🍀♥️

Yes! Abso0lutely it is! But I got a little stuck on how he pays $1 a week and then receives a receipt if he is only to go to the PO once/month? Other than being a bit confused by that minor & easily fixable issue, I found it a riveting story!

Hey, thanks for that great feedback, Keila.

I considered explaining how POs just drop by randomly to check up on you but I didn't want to sidetrack the story. Great feedback though, thanks! Easy to fix 🙌
