"The Sign" is an excellent rating masterwork. You created a story so relatable and at the end you offered a moral.
Line upon line built up anticipation and doesn't disappoint thank you for sharing.

Hi Iza, this is written by a very unhappy woman. She feels trapped and don't know how to get out of the situation. I liked the way you made all the points of the bad deal this marriage was. Ulla::)))

This is so well written and applies to so many of us, including me. So many signs I didn't see. So many I saw, but then thought I was maybe overreacting. After all, doesn't live conquer all? Apparently not. Great job!

Punishment is something that only God hands out on judgement day. I never believe in revenge. I would never want to live a devil's life because someday we are accounted for our behavior. If your story is fiction you hit them right on with a hammer; now if we can learn from them, that's another story.

You've told a story that is common to too many women, in a simplified but very telling way. I like your style and I wish you good luck in the contest.

This is an interesting, heart felt piece. I have a poem called Subconscious Betrayal about how are subconscious betrays us. We sometimes choose a man that was just like our fathers and pay the price. I think that is what you are eluding to in the beginning. Sometimes love makes us overlook the red flags. Always go with your gut. Thanks for sharing.

Very well-written. A terrific description of what happens when people ignore the signs that their partners have been trained to another way of life that can mean nothing but trouble. One thing I would suggest is take the comma out of the sentence--She found a guy good for something.

I found the character to be interesting and engaging. The story seemed natural. The character draws you into the story. Overall a well-crafted piece. It was very easy to read. Thanks for sharing.

This story leaves the reader pondering and a bit saddened, which may have been your point. The second sign brought me to tears. "Mom can you give me this, Mon can you get me that!" I love the moral to your story: Don't put anyone or anything above God.
