Hello, you really meet the criteria for this competition, and what an original one. I think your 6 words are well chosen, and i have no suggestion for imrovement. It made me think of a transient marriage that didn't last for long.
Bye for now, and best of luck with this entry, Abby

Thank you, AbigailDavid for the great review. All in good fun fiction.
Comment from nitad
Well, it certainly sounds as if someone is about to become road kill. I'm guessing, since she is the one moving fast, that it won't be her. Smart woman!
Excellent entry - good luck in the contest.

Comment from mshugh
That is hysterical - the images you project in six words are priceless - especially that punch line - fast.
Now why couldn't it have been the other way?
Very well done

Thank you Michael. I had several versions of this one. This one seemed funny.
Comment from Soloneili
Why do I expect a car horn to sound here? At first I thought the story was missing and then I spotted what was going on.
I'm new to all this, but I'm fascinated now.
Great minimilistic writing Amada. What a challenge to make it all count.
You did, so well done.
Good luck too in the contest.

Thank you Soloneili for taking the time to understand it. It was a challenge to tell a story in six words; trying to keep these old brain stretching.

Thats it in a nutshell, these contests are really interesting your six words to me sounds like it's somewhere you've been before to capture what you wrote so well, really good stuff.

Thank you for the review and the perception. i was the naive young girl holding his hand. Rude awakening.
Comment from catydid52
Well it tells a story for sure. Out of six words, amazing how a story can be constructed.
The beginning, middle and ending, it says it all.
Good job,

your welcome.
Comment from Robert Fejeran
Much to the point. Well described in a few words as possible. Without the title, the words are still valid in defining a relationship gone bad. Excellent use of words.

Comment from grassroots08
That had to be a difficult task - which six words will tell my story best. Well you succeeded - bravo. It reminds me of the fellow who was asked by Peter at heavens gate what brought him to heaven. He replied that the sign at the road crossing said "Don't walk", so he ran. Enjoy your day.

Comment from typrince002
Uhm, what just happened? I'm sorry but I just have no clue as to how that is a story. It did get me thinking however. If you could please comment me back explaining what this is a part of. I see that it is recognized so, as a writer, I must be missing something that is key for it's success.
Best wishes,
Ty
