A Soldier's Wife

“Honey? Honey are you all right? Is everything okay? Where are you? Are you coming home soon?” I was on the verge of tears. It was so good to hear his voice again.

“I’m okay, love. I’m not sure when I’ll get to come home. I miss you baby. Remember, I’ll always love you.” He said passionatly.

“I love you. Come home safely.” I said, my whole body aching for him to be home.

I prayed for him that night, hoping for him to be okay. I coudn’t sleep. I had an awful feeling in the pit of my stomach all night. The next morning I went to work. There was a stranger’s car in my driveway. Uh-oh..
