This meets the contest requirements nicely with a correct word count and a complete story. This had a wonderful turn at the end as it leaves the reader with the hope that all will now be well. I wish you all the best in the voting and thank you for sharing it.

    I always love stories of lucky finds, my sister bought an old house and when she was redoing the chimney, a stash of money was revealed. Joe was happy to quiet his fiancee and I hope he doesn't tell his cousin, thanks for the review, cheers

Happy ending may be the way to go for this ultra-short format.

You manage to tell the whole story here in a nutshell. Possibly a few words of dialog at the beginning may have spiced it up a little.

Good luck.

Steve

I thought this was a complete story in just 100 words - well done! It did seem just a tiny bit unbelievable, though. I'll be eager to see what other contestants come up with, too.

A least there was a happy ending to this piece, I could imagine clearly his fiancées rage when she discovered that he had no money a week before their wedding. Good writing throughout, I couldn't find any faults. Good luck in the contest...Jacob

Hi there,

This was a good entry into the 100 word competition.
Although, if I was Joe, I would have made sure that I got all of those coins out of there rather than just the one!

Fits the prompt and the writing was engaging as was the story. Nice one.
