A few notes...
- I feel like there's a guy named "Jason" in this story, but I'm not sure.
You use the name "Jason" too many times. I understand what you're doing but it's just a few too many and some of them seem out of place.
- You start with V.O. but then on the last page you don't use it. Is Roger actually talking here?
- "Roger puts his hand between his palms." Do you mean he put his head between his palms?
- You definitely made me feel for Jason's wife and mother. I felt their pain at the funeral and afterward.
- I also felt for Roger and his remorse for what he's done. Good job.
This was a quick tale of not being able to take back things we've done and living with the consequences.
Well done.
-Jordan

Oh repent and lament. Couldn't empathize with the narrative at all. It felt to me too obviously full of remorse and contrite.
John Stone.
