Acceptance: 55 Fiction

2 October 2009 7 Comments

Contest entry #1: Acceptance

I’m sitting in the midst of many people, yet I’m alone – dreadfully alone. He means the world to me. He doesn’t have much longer now.

He whispers softly “Be strong, I know you can do it. I’ll always love you”.

I’ve learned from him, and because of him, I can speak these words.. I’m gay.

The author,  M. Mackenzie, about herself: I am an unemployed Sales & Marketing professional who has been writing to help fill my unexpected (and currently unlimited) free time.  Making the most of my Unemployed “Leisure Time”! Blogging at  http://activeleisure.wordpress.com

    It was nicely paced.
    I’m glad you didn’t use his sexual preference as a shock element but subtly used it end his inner conflict.

    Good job.

    Yes.. The best one line of this 55 fiction is the last line - ‘I’m gay’ Which actually changes the story which otherwise seemed.
