Discussion of "The Encounter" by scryier

thanks for reminding me why i'm glad that i'm not married. and thanks for reminding me why i'm glad i had sex when i was young and got it out of my system.

This is a lovely story. The details are so vivid; the church, the bus ride, the food and drink, the beach, etc. The personalities are beautifully conveyed, including the mystery woman, who has a distinct presence with very little dialogue. The blend of sentiment and melancholy create a softness that pervades the story from start to finish. The scene on the beach is tastefully rendered and extremely hot! You are a good story-teller. I call it a solid 4.
