Under The Gun

What would you do if someone jammed a gun to your head?
Let Larry live the experience so you don't have to.
But the real question is: would you have his reaction?

SINCE I HAD A GUN TO MY HEAD by Gary Jonas is an extremely disturbing flash fiction piece. I felt extreme sympathy for Larry, considering the post-traumatic stress he suffered from. The ending shocked me. 
This is not horror, as much as a personal drama. While I appreciate the attention Jonas gives to a very real problem, I prefer the author's paranormal stories far more.
As always,
