Nice story, and well done. This reminds me of something I do occasionally which is “Write a Great Novel in 50 Words or Less” (titles don’t count). Here is one of my favorites:
Perfect Ending
Tanya searched for the perfect man; the epitome of every woman’s dreams. Across the years, across the world, following a thousand rumors and leads, she had sought this Adonis.
At last, she had found him. Slipping her revolver back into her purse, she smiled grimly: “That was for my daughter.”

That was brilliant! I totally wasn’t expecting that twist ending! It’s very cool what you can achieve with such an extreme word limit. 😀
