RPS,

It has always been interesting to me how many of these folks there are around. Ones too lazy and pigg-headed to find their own gainfully informal regular jobs with a work schedule. Faaarr preferring the delights of home, comforts, and couches. Yet. Somehow. When the rubber meets the road, they find a way to save everyone, keep their new job and family and boss together. The highest order of miracles.

The 'watcher' had better stay viligilant.

Thank you

Hello RPSaxena I like your metaphor
In the King James Version of the Bible the text reads:

Beware of false prophets, which come to you in sheep's
clothing, but inwardly they are ravening wolves.

The metaphor works well. I commend you on finding this picture. Really!
This is a wolf in sheep's clothing. Your story is very well composed.
Well done!

This sounds like a story I could "sink my teeth" into, and come out wiser. This "Wolf in Sheep's Clothing," leave me wondering about the details of what did you actually mean concerning the "devious secretary of the colony." My interest has been piqued by your choice of word usage in your writing style and I really do want to read more. Great job and congrats on your much deserved success.

Hi Rhaguvir, so he was found out in the end as it so often happens when corruption is rife. It was a different flash, and an insight to how it can be in India. I liked the story. All the best of luck. Ulla:)))

This is an interesting story. I'm not sure what I was expecting but it was a surprise. I bet the philanthropist was sorry you ever came home for a visit. Lucky for your hometown--who knows how much he would have made off with? Good luck in the contest.

Oh ,that is a good thing you have done. What do you mean by 'not a valid colony'.
Your story was very interesting. I wondered about the wolf in sheep's clothing. i liked the way you connected it to the story.

    Hello Sanku,
    Thank you very much for so lovely and morale boosting comments.
    'not a valid colony' here refers to 'not recognized/regularized by the State Development Authority'.

Good title to a good story with limited words. Flash fiction is a difficult piece to tackle, but you seemed to do it so well. I would think it had the essentials of growing into a mystery short story. GOOD LUCK.

Hey RP. You really can write. You really should write a novel, if haven't. Just reading this small piece for competition, I can clearly see the promise. You have a good command of language. I would be following your chapters.

Good luck with this my friend. Excellent!
Have a great week.
My best RG

This process goes on all over the world, and America is full of it of this graft. What a wonderfully written story.

Good luck in the contest!
Have a great day, and God bless.
