very nice vignette--really just about perfect for the length. We have two fully drawn characters who each have something that they want which brings them into conflict with the other, and the conflict then rises to a moment of violence, then it ends. I do usually push against violence as a means of conflict resolution in stories--it's usually the easiest way out of a story--and so you might want to think about how else to resolve it, particularly in a way that doesn't remove one of the characters from the conflict. in fact, I notice that they both more or less disappear at the end--I wonder why that is?
