I really enjoyed this! I enjoyed being in Jack's head and am hoping he succeeds a a jeweler.

Great Kelli ! No spoilers, but adult Jack is a character in the novel I’m writing 😉 And I’ve got another short story about his past in the works.

Thank you Geraldine :) As to more, I sometimes think my mum's principle for kids' birthday parties applies to short stories too -- finish before everyone stops having fun! But since you and others have liked this one, I may write another story or two about Jack and his world.
