I would tend to agree that it doesn't grab me. It opens with a scene that has no action...then introduces a character with no name.

If it was a "normal Sunday morning", then this may not be the right place to start the story. See if you can find where his life is changed by something and start the story there, then fill in what backstory is actually needed for the reader to understand what's going on.

#

Also, your first quote mark is on p5, but you have implied dialogue on p3. Why no quotes there?

and that's why i didn't used any name, I didn't describe any characteristic of the charcaters beacuse it was supposed to be just anyone from anywhere

#

But by the end, I thought this whole story had no emotional impact, so I pretty much put it on hold after that.

If you set those story titles to Heading Styles, they'll show up in the Navigation pane, so folks will know where they are.
