Although on one level this flash-fiction story itches for the rest of the story to be provided, you can easily speculate and guess the rest without needing to be told. And this story certainly captures what is almost certainly the most interesting and critical part of the whole story.
All in all, it was quick to read and quite a good little piece of writing that I enjoyed.

The author has set a challenge for himself with only 500 words, but carries off an interesting story none-the-less. It would work even better if it were longer, a bit more detail into the character and the "why's and wherefore's" etc... which can't happen in only 500 words. Well written, fast paced and some good ideas.

Not a bad attempt, though I would have liked something a bit more original.
For me it was like a modernised version of the Poe classic "The Tell-Tale Heart, with the mobile phone ringing instead of the beating of the heart in the aforementioned story.

One technique of super-short stories can be for them to describe a fraction of a story; the story is complete, yet indicates that more has happenned before the story began, and more will continue to happen after the story is finished. The short self-contained micro-story should bring up questions and queries; who is this, what is that, what is going on here, offering a brief glimpse into a larger world.
David Blake's story does this well; I see the potential for expansion, yet it stands well on its own.
I never answer Withheld Numbers and will continue to not do so.

A very good and quick read. The story was intriguing and had enough substance to satisfy the reader. For something that was a writing experiment it turned out quite good.
