This story addresses the prompt cleverly. The mistake you made is quite common and understandable. We all like a good buy, especially if the salesperson is a friend. We feel we can trust that material.
Your piece is well organized--beginning, middle and resolution. All in all a relatable piece. You might think in the future about editing a little more carefully. A few misspellings mar the overall effect.
We hope you will write for us again. You have in interesting perspective and communicate with readers well.
Good luck in Hive, and in this community.
Thank you for this tremendous remarks @theinkwell, I will do well to double check my contents before posting next time. It feels so good to be on board
I will make no such mistake again, I had to discard the shoe just one month after I bought it, a complete waste.
