“I will never forget that day and the look on your mum’s face when she heard the news.” Mr. Thompson wiped his hand over his face in residual pain before continuing with the story.
“Your mum cried and begged me, she told me how she could not live without me and reminded me of all our plans. She begged me to let us run and leave the town. But what could I do? I’m a man and I’d always been a pride of the town, how could I just disappoint them? So, instead of listening to your mother, I disappointed her and signed up for the war.” Mr. Thompson said.
“Of course on the day I was leaving for the battlefield, I summoned my younger brother, Austin, the only relative I had left after our parents died and begged him to move into our home and take care of my wife and our unborn child, and even though he was a low life miserable

Your blood can sometimes be your worse enemy…*****Dropping the cup noisily on the table, his father wiped his mouth with trembling hands before continuing.“It was after I ordered the guard to read the letters to me, twenty five of them Tom, a whole twenty five of hellish letters from your mum that made me realised your mum had kept writing to me even when she heard the news that the war had ended. When I did not come home, she kept writing to me hoping I would get them. In one of her letters, she told me how my brother had found out where she kept our savings and finished them all on gambling and drinking and she begged me to please come home to her and our child.” Tears dropped from Mr. Thompson’s eyes as he replayed the letters in his head.“Well, after a year of not hearing anything from me, my brother told her he got news that I was dead and he asked her to marry him in order to provi

Life is no fun without a full memory… ****** “Please, we have an appointment with the doctor, is she on the seat?” Liza wanted to know. “Oh yes, she has been expecting you. We were told you could not make your last appointment.” One of the nurses replied with a curious note at the end of her words. Turning her face to the side to hide the glint in her eyes, Liza remembered why they missed their appointment and blushed furiously. It was Mike’s turn to chuckle in amusement as he ignored the pointed look the nurses were exchanging among themselves. “If you will excuse us, ladies, we would like to go in now, so we don’t keep the good doctor waiting.” Mike told them with a smile as he took Liza’s hand in a protective hold to go to the doctor. Watching them, the nurses at the same time released their bre
