This post is a 55 fiction - 55 Fiction is a form of micro-fiction that refers to the works of fiction limited to a maximum of fifty-five words
Amit saw his name in the facebook "friend suggestions"
"Shall I call him?"
"What will he think?"
"Will he even talk to me?"
"Would I look smaller?"
"It wasn't entirely my fault"
"What the hell"
He picked up the phone and dialled
"Dude, I am sorry!"
And just like that, he was free.

A 'small' action brings so much of Freedom!
beautiful...well said
Just 55 words Freedom.. Nice one VP... Good luck for Blog-a-Ton. Free... are we?
Someone is Special
free from guilt, nice one, when one forgives, the other person feels free....good idea ! could have been more of an article, 55 word fiction has less to offer to a serious reader !
We all make mistakes. Apologizing for them makes us truly "free" of our guild
Awesome laconic 55 words !! Forgetting and forgiving really sets you free !!
I guess that sets him free from guilt
Nice post. All the best for the contest :)

@Sunil Yes, I agree that 55 word is sometimes too short, but I guess that is the challenge !

Nice one. You seem to have the knack of aptly capturing the common mental turmoils that we undergo. Of course last time you had greater number of words to do justice. Must have been much more challenging doing the same in fewer words this time. But you have pretty well.

Nice One...Sometimes our small actions give us freedom from mind thoughts/questions and guilt..
Like forgiveness can free us from anger and thought of revenge..

Good one Vikram.
What Being Free meant for her
Profound, poignant and bang on target!
You have exemplified the maxim that as difficult as it is to stand up to our enemies, it is harder still to stand up to our friends.
And the brevity of your expression, combined with the innocence of the thought, leave no scope for ambiguity.
GREAT piece of writing.
simple and cute i wud stay...why keeping it throw it out right ?? :):)

sometimes an apology is more therapeutic to the one who says it than the one whom it is said to...
this 55-fiction spoke out a very strong reality which we often overlook! :)
all the best for BAT!

@Animesh Thank you :)
@Brijender Thanks. Your comment made my day :)
@Critics Thanks :)
@Pri Thats true... sometimes we need to accept the mistake and apologize. Thanks for apperciating :)
Everyone before me has said in bits and pieces and some in entirety exactly what I wanted to say it but I'll mention it nonetheless.
Misunderstandings are bound to happens, especially with people who are truly our own. We, as you've so eloquently put in the 55 words, must reach out.
@Richi True. Thanks for reading :)
