I appreciate that. It felt like the diner booth just led naturally to a back and forth conversation so I decided to strip it down to that alone. I was kind of channelling a lighter version of some of the stories in the collection Knockemstiff. If you haven’t read it, beware and you’re welcome.
Lovely twist at the end.
I like what you did with dialogue only here!
Thanks! Something about a booth turns a story into a little play. I probably ended up putting more work into the painting than the story•
Oh it’s great! I didn’t know you painted it!
nice twist and super strong dialogue!! great piece. i love these contests

Nicely done. Dark and darkly funny.
Nice, I liked the ending especially. My entry also took advantage of the booth conversation, but mine is all monologue
