Heads or Tails: 55 Fiction

Contest Entry #31: Heads or Tails

There was a lot of money… and a lot more if it didn’t have to be split in half. I had the gun. Ram was busy packing up. I was confused… my conscience was pricking me. Finally I decided to toss a coin. Heads-he lives, tails- he dies. I tossed it… it came down…. Tails!

    This is a picture of reality; how greed can take over one’s sanity and conscience. Nice subject.
