A gripping short story typically has a strong opening that hooks the reader, well-developed characters facing interesting conflicts, a sense of tension or suspense that keeps the reader engaged, and a satisfying resolution that leaves an impact. Additionally, concise and evocative writing that creates a vivid and immersive world can also make a short story gripping.

Once upon a time, there was a fox. The fox saw a mouse. The fox ate the mouse. That is VERY short but it makes its point, therefore, it is still a story. It has a regular beginning and a sad ending. It makes its point. Here's another short story that makes its point: There was a girl. She had lost her dog. She was very sad. She received a dog for Christmas and named it Miracle. Sad beginning and a happy ending, right? And, once again, it makes its point. So a story can be as long as it has to be. :)
The title comes last. First, finish your short story, then your title will come from something you wrote in the story. If you honestly cannot find anything in your writing that makes a good title, you can choose a famous quotation or song lyric that has something to do with what happened in your story.
