I gotta admit, in my mind when I wrote it there wasn’t any creepiness. I saw her feeling more content than ominous. The last line does leave it up to the reader though. Thanks for reading :)

Lol, I got ominous too. Kinda like, “They’ll never know. Muhahahaa!”
Loving the photography/50 word flash combo thing you’re doing.

Thank you. That’s exactly what I’d like to do. Once I have a collection of 50-100 i’d love to publish a book that would double as a photo book and a book of short stories. Thank you for your kind words. I really appreciate kind comments.
