Nice plot development here is so few words, and the way you've written this story, it makes the reader go back and review it a few times to truly get the meaning. Very well done! I see why this won!
I hate the term drabble (always have) but I really like the story. Great example of what can be accomplished in a microfiction with some effort and imagination.
I remember back in the Medium days people thinking the term meant that the work had to be humorous, like a sniglet. I've got a whole book of 100s (Humans, Being- A Story a Day for a Year) and the person helping me get it on Amazon asked me if I wanted Drabble as a keyword. I declined. Your story is one of the best 100s I've seen in a long time.

Wow. That means a lot to me, Jimmy. Thank you. I can see why you've avoided using the word Drabble based on that.
Great little piece Sean. Congratulations on the win!
