Well! I guess Joe got it a bit wrong on this guy.
Well thought out and well written. I enjoyed reading your story.
Some stories just cannot be cut down.
Best wishes.

What a marvelous story, Jim! Your creativity has no limits, that is quite obvious. If this were actually an entry in a contest, I would vote for it for sure. :-)

I am fortunate that I, a nobody, can be inspired by you and the others on FS, and have a loving, creative God that allows me to write.

Comment from Rachelle Allen
I wonder if Joe was as way off with the other two customers!!
This was really well done, Jim. I was hooked from the moment the story began! Good suspense, terrific descriptions, and perfect artwork to go with it. (I love that it's a "hock shop" rather than a "pawn shop." For whatever reason, that just has a more wholesome, less seedy way about it!)
Anyway, a thoroughly enjoyable read, Jim. Thank you.

This is perfect for whatever entry! You surprised the reader and gave Joe a new view of humanity while sharing the stranger's witness of all that the Lord has done for him. Terrific!
What are stilettos? I only know the high heel shoes. ð???

Stilettos are knives with long blades. I believe the shoes were named after them.

Ah. You taught me something new again! 😊

I probably picked it up from some noir movie.

Happy you posted this piece, I enjoyed the story and wonder if we all place judgements off our own past experiences. Thank you for sharing your talent, too bad it wasn't for the contest.
God bless,
Steve

Two years ago, my wife died, and God could easily have taken me. In fact, I kind of wanted him to. But now He has given me reasons to live and you are part of them.
Comment from Sharon Elwell
A great take on the way we make judgments based on our own experiences and observations, which can lead us astray! A couple of details: "fancy note paper to write a fancy note..." seems like you could use a different word to avoid the repetition. Maybe this is just a girl thing, but when I see the word "stiletto," I think first of high-heeled shoes. Maybe you could add the word knives?
Good work!

I agree with you. I just used stiletto, though, because some knives have wide or thick blades and wouldn't much resemble a cross of juxtaposed on one another.

I enjoyed this! It grabbed my attention and held it from the start till the very end. The graphic fits well too. Great writing overall. Best of luck going forward.
