The problem is that "the clickLine" is not preserved and becomes empty
while the answer dialog is open (or when it closes).
Try this instead. It stores "the clickLine" first, then uses the
stored value instead of expecting "the clickLine" to remain the same:

on mouseUp
    put the clickline into tClick
    select tClick
    answer "Really delete" & return & tClick && "?" with "No" or "Yes"
    if it is "Yes" then
        delete tClick
    end if
end mouseUp

Cheers,
