Good prose.

I like the rhetoric of this. And it's relatable.

Nice analogy. Frustrating how it can be so much harder to move on than to continue waiting, even though it hurts.

That's a mood.

This made me think of a friend of mine, for some reason.
I noticed a lot of people asking for more of this, and I don't know if you have written more or not, but I think it's actually quite good as a standalone, just a snippet of story that is what it is.

I like the metaphorical feel of this story.

Huh. I don't know how to say what I'm thinking, but I like what this story does to make the reader think.

This isn't necessarily my usual taste in genres, but I really like your writing style! Holding off on the reveal of the finger was a good call; I liked the surprise of realizing what the character is holding onto. I'm not sure I entirely understand this story, haha, but I enjoyed it!
