I liked this story more than the first one, I think because I got a better sense of this character’s personality.

‘stool’ should be ‘stood’, though.

Weaves in seamlessly with the first story, and the addition of some dialogue certainly pads it out a bit… Interesting that Agnes’ pessimism 1) Is about herself as well as others and 2) Has a potential backstory (her being widowed?)

More enjoyable than the first because it BUILDS on it rather than just following on – thanks for entering! MH :)

This works very well. It is a good addition and does add a very interesting story.
The dialogue changes the basic format which makes it more interesting than the first part.
well done

I always seem to like the optimist’s side better. Makes me want to be optimistic! Unless they are over the top.
