Too sweet (double meanings)

by Erica Bennett

 

Too sweet. As in vomitus or satisfying? I should ask him which he meant, but I am certain it doesn’t matter. In either intention, he is correct. And I love the challenge that he presents. Was I writing with sincerity, I have to ask myself… Yes.

What about this case?

 

On the afternoon she died, because I couldn’t find her hearing aid in the shuffle of her unconscious body

 

Or

On the afternoon she died, because

I couldn’t find her

Hearing aid in the shuffle of her unconscious body

 

There is a difference; an intentional difference. He wants to respect that difference, because I intended it that way. He taught me that the other night. He is a director.
