The love of Samantha's life has gone to war. Will he return? |
| Chapter 3 *BEEP*...*BEEP*...*BEEP*... "Hmm... Honey, get the alarm for me please," I yawn. "Honey?" I hear myself repeat in a troubled tone. I roll over on the bed and tentatively plop a drowsy hand down on his pillow. Good Lord, he isn't there! Where would he go this early in the morning...? Oh, now it clicks. He's away. A tear slides down my cheek as I pound the alarm clock off with a disappointed fist. I wipe the single tear away with the satiny sleeve of my pajamas in frustration. How could I forget? I stand up and stretch. He may be gone (yeah, you, Robert!) but the day didn't leave with him. I still have to get up. |
