Walking For Hours
Walking for hours 1
Another day another long boring job in the cold all alone wondering if I can make enough to provide for my family. The frosted grass that crunches as I move my right foot to take a step. On today job as a Marines Officer we helped some people from a shooting in the southern part of the land. I saved this one guy from the shooting his head was constantly bleeding. I put him to sleep and performed a brain surgery. I remember listening to the beating of his heart as I was stressed about the surgery it was almost as he calmed and soothed me. He woke up and thanked me and then gave me a hug his hugs were so warm that the grass defrosted. I looked at him and gave him a hug as he left. Expecting he would never see me again. As I went home my dog and my kid was waiting. Today was awesome but I couldn’t afford dinner for me and my family. I heard footsteps and I looked outside and heard the mailbox shut. Getting a letter from a man named “Jake Lyeth” I have no clue who that is so I expect it to be for the neighbors but my curiosity made me look inside. It was a letter from the guy I saved at the shooting. In the letter it said” Hi I am the guy you saved at the shooting. The first time I saw you I felt a connection. The way you helped me was like no girl has ever before. Your eyes sparkled in the light and your face made me blush. I understand if you didn’t feel the connection or if you aren’t interested. I would love to go on a walk Friday. I live two houses down at the right. Can’t wait from Jake. I went on that walk and we bonded we ended the night watching the sunset. Then he walked me back home and we immediately took a wrong turn we walked for hours knowing that my daughter was already asleep. I never wanted to stop walking next to him. He felt like a cloud laying my head on his shoulder. I invited him to come to my house the next day to meet my daughter. When I got home my daughter woke up before I did. She confronted me and I had to tell her the truth. He came and met my daughter and my daughter looked like him in so many ways. The father of hers was out of the picture. So she thought of him as a father figure. Jake immediately loved my daughter. Me and Jake got married one year later. We thought we shouldn’t wait for something that we know we always had.
The end.
