I guess I saw several sentences that needed editing.
Almost like a slow replay... is not a sentence
reflect means looking back so you don't need the word back.
vestibule, comma needed
periods should be inside the quotation now." Trent,"
Just be more meticulous about the final presentation before clicking end preview.
Must have been the way I was thinking when I scored you.
Happy Tuesday!

Bahahaha! I can totally relate to your story, only it was my mother in law. We were at a small restaurant, having brunch. Their tables were very close to one another, and my mother in law had a little more girth than she thought. She squeezed herself between two tables of patrons, who were not finished eating. I was in front of her and I heard the people at the first table moan and grumble, and say things like 'Jeeesuss'! And 'Damn, lady'! Then the same thing at the next table.
When we finally got outside, I asked my husband what that was all about. He said, 'every step mom took, she farted."
Her butt was level with the tables, so the poor diners really got blasted.

This was so funny. Who hasn't experienced exactly those feelings in adolescence? I take it your grandma is still alive? And probably embarrassing the family each year, right? Well done. I hope you do well in the contest.

Comment from Carole Rosa
To the author of "And Then She Burped". I bet you get many equally funny stories in return for this short story. My mother and I went to a Mexican restaurant when I was a teenager. As we were leaving the table, my mother dropped her keys. The tables were close together in this restaurant. When she bent over to pick up her keys, she let a big loud stinker aimed at the table next to us. I almost died trying to get out of there!!! Good luck in the contest. Your story is very well told. Carole
