100 word stories #4: One hundred things
I’ve just added “learning to eat with chopsticks” to the list of 100 things I don’t want to do before I die.
Also, I no longer want to go to Anchorage. Not without you. I’d rather potter around the house and wait for it to snow.
But the number one thing I don’t want to do before I die is see that look on your face again. Like when you first found out about Her. I don’t want to feel the way I did when I made you cry openly in a busy café. This is something I’ve already done.

That’s cool; a lot of depth and a journey for 100 words.
that speaks volumes
I guess I’ve been there too
great fleece, tip of the iceberg of the history underlying it.
Just read it again. So many layers in so few words!
I really don’t want to leave a superficial comment on your work that doesn’t seem real. But, this is great. It really is. I am hooked on all of your pieces. Definitely an interesting style.
I really dig all these stories you’ve written. Great use of space.
good flash with real depth. I liked it. Except for the last line, sorry
:This is something I’ve already done.
‘Something I’d already done’ would have been more concise. Just my opinion. Very good all the same.
so glad i found this .. it’s rawness and depth is beautiful.
