Finally, in the early winter evening, my train pulled into the station and I stepped off, my breath white as I adjusted to the sudden cold. I couldn't see Mum anywhere on the platform, so I pulled my suitcase behind me and headed for the entrance. Part way there, a lump of coat, hat and scarf started waving frantically and rushed over.
"Dave! Wow, you look great!" she said, her cheeks red from the cold air. I could barely see any more of her, she was so wrapped up. "Your hair is so short!"
We had a big hug and then she reached out to take my case.
"Don't worry, I've got it," I reassured her, as we headed towards the bus stops.
"I've missed you so much! It's great to have you home," she says, and I detect she could soon be getting tearful, so I give her a quick one-armed hug to stall it.
"Let's get home and get warm," I told her. "Then we can catch up."

amsterdam3 months agoI'm looking forward to seeing how this develops. I have my own idea of how things could start happening with his Mum, so it will be interesting to see if it's on similar lines to how you plotted it out. I very much enjoyed your writing and character development. Also a bonus point for including Sheffield - the city that I grew up in & still refer to as home, even though I don't live there anymore.
Anonymous4 months agoA work of art. Thank you. A story woven into life, the byways and excursions are a delight. It is life in its many facets.
Anonymous9 months agoWow, I just love the writing! Love the build up of the story, so tender and yet funny and likable!
I actually laughed out loud a couple of times, what a lovely beginning!!
ukrainianabout 1 year agoThis is not a wham ban story. It has a build up and a lot going on. I suspect that it is a little bit to intimidating for some readers. All the criticism by those that struggle to read has put off a budding author. That is a shame. I hope the author has changed name and gone on to write other stories. Five stars for me. Thank you for your work.
