The will or the way

This is a 15 word short story I entered in a recent contest. I didn't win, but it is the ultimate challenge.

The will or the way

 

“He’s dead!”

“How?”

“Heart.”

“Policy?”

“Millions!”

“Marry me?”

“Yes.”

“Honeymoon?”

“Of Course!”

“Cliff climbing?”

“Sure?”

I love the dialogue! It's funny and fun. Short and sweet but oh-so complete. Well done!

I was actually drawn to your poem from the title, as I wrote one years ago entitled, "Will and Way."

Excellent work John and the honeymoon venue is so funny. I'm sure this is harder than it looks. It reminds me of an advert that is on our TV just now where a couples whole history from meeting to divorce is discussed in about 20 words

So much is said in so few words.

People in general are equipped to deal with things in more practical way than emotional way. priority is about what is next even before actual funeral services . How much life insurance policy, net worth of assets the dead person left, whom the spouse going to marry, what are the travel plans, and destinations of honeymoon, the world changed a lot that is for sure, thought provoking writing

The challenge has been met to the fullest. This speaks volumes in few short words. I feel some plot here going on between two over life insurance and romance. Amazing you.
