amada, does that mean the wife wants the husband to get hit by the traffic? or does she want to pick out his anniversary present before he gets to the store? or is she trying to get to the lover's getaway car? this is an intriguing story you've written in 6 words. good luck in the contest.

    Thank you Rdfrdmom2 for the review. It was just a silly story with an open-ended solution. I truly appreciate your support to my work

There's a romantic charm to your entry. There's no picture provided so I instantly imagined two elderly people, married for nearly fifty years, still in love and spending the day together. Enjoyed reading this very much and I wish you the best for the contest.

    Thank you for the review and the lovely interpretation. Those elderly couples left me wonder in their secret for staying together all those years.

This may be the closest thing to a complete story that was entered. You cetainly grasp the idea of brevity. It does read like a poem, however, and we'll see if that hurst or not. Adam

How many times have we seen this scenero in real life and didn't know why she was rushing across the street. This brings to mind an OLD OLD movie The Way We Were. So sad!

    How true, that association is amazing with that part of the movie. That's one of my fav movies, and I didn't see the connection. Bravo.

These are fun to read. Your six words paint a definite picture. Fanstory makes me come back to this because I don't write enough words to describe your words. Funny eh?

Wishing you the best-

I wonder why, and who, and what will happen next. Good poem.
Six word stories are difficult. You have found a way to make it interesting.
Very well done.

Hello amada,

I've read this one several times and the final word, "fast" leaves me pondering. Fast to get away, to go toward, to go backwards. Fast ....... hmmmmmmmm - the puzzling
last word.

Good luck in the contest.

Regards, LateBloomer

    Thank you LateBllomer for the comments. Everyone has an interpretation; I think that's the beauty of it. We all are different, and unique. I was thinking she was walking fast toward the husband, ready to kill him. Hehehehe.

Yes, this would be a life-changing event--sounds like a break up of a relationship. Hard to describe in this unusual contest with only 6 words, but I did get the picture. Good luck in the contest.

These six words bring to mind a number of possible scenarios -- including several that make me smile. Good luck in the contest. ann
