nice little comedic piece about misinterpretation, and I think you set it up very well with those early clues and strange smells. The twist at the end came out of nowhere and we have to laugh at the situation. estory

This is written so much above the average submission that it is exceptional, and I'm giving it a six-star rating. This is an easy read with a good mix of commentary and dialogue. No grammar or spelling problems.
Best wishes.

I had one more review before signing off for now. I am glad I picked this delightful, brilliant, and beautifully written one. All the theories imagined gave me a smile. Knowing her man's thinking of conspiracy theories, she shuts him down and goes off to get supper.
Her is my last six. I am glad I had one left.
Best wishes and regards,
Mary

This is delightful and beautifully written. I wish I had a sixer left. I loved all the theories concocted by the narrator, especially the one about the Egyptians. His wife is on to the imagination of her husband. I love the way she handles the situation.

I think Bob needs to hold his cards more closely to his person. That was quite an imagination. He was all over the place with his ideas for her evil plans. Fun read.

Great story, Mike. We've all been there. I always find my eyes drawn to people's bags on the bus or the train. I have a bottomless curiosity, except these days it is likely to get me a black eye.
My weirdest experience - no wait - that could make a story! Watch this space!

Your conspiracy theories are as convincing as mine, except that your wife seems to understand you, and not get freaked out. Mine had less simple endings for me, until I learned to limit my interactions with others. Enjoyed this piece of writing very much. Kate xx
