Good Evening, Mr President!

In the eyes of Chi Zuxu, Chi Yi is a typical delinquent with the three big ‘NOs’— no morals, no virtues, no principles. To her, though, he is a classic baddie who is heartless, soulless, and inhuman. After the girl breaks and climbs through his glass window on the second story, she peeps at him with an innocent demeanor. “Chi Zuxu, lend me the other half of your bed!” she wolf-whistles at him blatantly. The man admonishes with a scowl, “Chi Yi, aren’t you shameless!” Inside the cinema, as Chi Yi’s little hands restlessly grope the man’s body without chagrin, she tells him smilingly, “Chi Zuxu, I want to do bad things with you!” Holding a look of woeful disgrace, he knocks her head. “Chi Yi, aren’t you embarrassed!” It is a lovely love story between a barefaced and a reticent. But, Mr Reticient, please don’t cry when Miss Barefaced finally slips away.

One important element of a short good story is a conflict. In 'The Tortoise and the Hare', the conflict is between the overconfidence of the hare and the determination of the tortoise. Then, there's the setting. It doesn't have to be very detailed in a short story, but it gives a context. For instance, the forest in many animal - based short stories. And of course, there should be a resolution. In 'The Three Little Pigs', the resolution is that the third pig's solid house withstands the wolf's attacks.
