It's going to be hard to comment on this one without a spoiler...I thought this was a pretty good short story for the first 80% or so, with a good job of character development and explaining the main story line, especially with the space constraints of a short story.  But then the end left me feeling down for a few seconds, and for me a big moment of "no kidding - who woulda thought it" for the ending.  Life isn't always what you want it to be and the author gave it a pretty good twist for an ending which I thought was refreshing.  It's nice to have an ending be something than what you "expect" to read!This short story could really serve as the outline of a full-length novel - the author has an engaging writing style and I enjoyed it.  If you're looking for something to read over your lunch break or other short time period, give this one a look.
