“shh, baby its okay,
you’ll be fine, trust me” I whispered as I whipped a
tear that was falling quickly down her face, I had my bag slung
over my right shoulder, I watched as
husbands,wifes,grandchildren,parents & friends gathered
saying their farewells, making them last because no one was ever
sure who was coming back. “ I cant be without you”
she said quietly” looking down at her feet, I put my hand
to her chin and pulled her face to mine, inches away I breathed
“ you’re always with me I said every step I take
everywhere I go your there” I said as I pointed to my
heart, “forever?” she said “forever” I
agreed, looking down at her memoiries flashed through my head,
the day I met her when she was awkwardly standing in line at a
coffee shop and I felt like I had to say something, the day I
called and asked her out on a date, the day she kissed me, the
day we got an apartment together, the day I told her I would be
leaving to Afghanistan in a few months, I tried to remember her
smile, the way her dimples were perfectly simetrical the way her
brown hair seemed flawless and how her olive skin was soft and
inviting, the way she held my hand when she was nervous the way
she’d run in the rain just to feel free, everything about
her was everything ive ever wanted. I heard the distant call
“ flight 48 will be leaving in 5 minutes” I smiled a
sad smile at her and she looked up at me “ write me”
I said to her “ always” she whispered, “
remember every other Tuesday we can video chat” I said
“ ill be waiting to see your eyes” she said
reluctantly , another tear went down her face, “
don’t be scared” I said, “ ill be back soon
enough” I said while I began to step away, our intertwined
hands slowly parted and she pulled me back for one last kiss,
“ ill be right here when you get back” she said I
smiled happy to know she would wait for me “ ill be waiting
to see you” I said as I turned away and began to walk away
“ stay safe James!” I heard her yell. I wasn’t
sure if I could stand 10 friggen months away from her, I
didn’t know how I would cope with that, I looked back on
more time to see her arms wrapped around herself, obviously
trying to hold herself together, I hope she’s arlight with
out me, I hope I survive without her. “ come on men”
I heard a soldier say, “ at ease soldier” I said
smiling happy to see an old friend, who had been by my side
sience training “ready” he said, I smiled and
truthfully spoke “ hell no” I whispered a smile
bitting the corner of my lips, “ well happy to see your
ready, lets get the f**k to Afghanistan
boys”
