Hello,

it is amazing what an image can inspire. I looked at the image and it is intriguing to say the least. The rich deep carpet of autumn leaves is a sumptuous one. The two guys could be more out of place there or be more opposite. The white guy made me think of a mafia boss looking over a fresh grave. I must admit I prefer your take on it of two dear old friends.

Well done.

Take care,

Michael

I enjoyed your short story. Kept my interest from beginning to end. I really liked the love of the two friends. George knew just what to say to Alfred.
Nice job
Take care
