Jim I loved it. Grumbling a bit, because you missed a couple of tiny things: weas, should be was. Short should be shorts and which airlines was it? Qantas? The story was otherwise excellent and much enjoyed. Esther

I really liked the way you put this story together sir. It has a nice flow, while being so-, gentle on the heart.Also;it is very possible in this life time,while we see this happening, in real time, everyday. Thank you for the fresh approach. Loved it.

This story gives the reader a lot to think about: loyalty, fickle love, the uncertainty of life, and the way things can change for completely unexpected reasons. I think it was brave to tackle so much.

This is an excellent switch, apart from the fact that you disposed of one protaganist to an explosion a little summarily. It would have been outstanding if you could have carried on the suspense a bit further. kay

I was thinking that this would make a great story continuing on with the other guy, who's unfortunate demise had a girl waiting for him, and I think it would make a great sequel, to this story, outstanding story Jim, blessings Roy

Well there was all kinds of Karma-type stuff happening in this story. but now I am wondering what will happen if he finds that fair lady and tries to talk to her. You may have to write abother story. Well done.

I like quirky little stories like this; you had a great premise here, the two men taking each other's suitcases and reading love letters for someone else. There is the one woman who is about to leave the one man, and the other preparing to see the other home. I thought the explosion over the ocean on the way back was a bit abrupt. I actually think this might make a great idea for a longer story, or even a short novel. This is a great idea that digs into questions of our different views of love, how they contrast, and compliment each other. I say expand it. estory

It is convenient that the other plane exploded. But there is no guarantee that Jalyn would welcome him..would she fail to recognize that he was not her'darling'..
very intriguing ..all the best for the contest

Why not? Look for the gal with the balloons and Teddy Bear?
Nicely written.
At least the clothes should fit.
But what about the Hindi woman at the bar?
Best wishes.

well, let's hope Carter can convince Jalyn that she is the one for him. I hope he does. She sounds nice.
It also sounds like he lucked out, losing Celia.
One of them deserves a happy ending, and it surely wasn't Andrew.
This is an interesting concept for a story, told succinctly and ending with a hopeful note.
