I was hooked from the first text. Even though I'm fully grown, I still communicate through text with my mother. I know the fear of a mother that doesn't answer- it's not too different from the fear a parent feels when they don't hear from their child when they expect to. I have children, and I know the horror of not knowing where your child is. That was, after all, the gist of the story. The surprise twist- which I won't spoil, fear not- had my heart pounding. Then came the ending- as abrupt as slamming face-first into a brick wall. I hate having no closure, and this one merely left my heart pounding but unsatisfied. The author held me enthralled right up until the end. I'm simply sorry that I didn't love the ending more, and that, sadly, the ending ruined the enjoyment of the rest of this short story for me.
