55 Word Fiction: Dialogue



Yes. This is what you should do.

I don’t understand.

You can’t.

Why?

There is no honor in questioning.

I want to know.

You know all you have to.

I will know what I want to.

That’s the problem. 

I’m duty-bound. 

Don’t decide the calling. Hear it.

Stop Me.  

Blasphemy.

Morbid Self-righteous Indignation.

We’re Complete.

      Thanks for your praise of the highest order, that may or may not be worth the piece, but your comment certainly made my day.

      I tried to portray both sides of the argument, but probably I failed. Anyway, thanks for reading

      It was only 55 words so I hope it wasn't too taxing on you, reading twice :)
