Chapter 1
She walks from the town down her dirt road to her farm house. Her auburn hair gently blowing with the cool breeze and her eyes trailing the grass and fields.
"I wonder what those boys are up to." She wonders to herself. The house comes into view, lit up perfectly by the setting sun. Trisha smiles and giggles quietly.
Trisha opened the door to the house, a brown paper bag in her right arm. She leans her back against the door, sighing with comfort.
"Roy." She smiles warmly. She walks over to him and gives him a gentle hug.
"Hello." He smiles in return. She saunters to the window, her brown hair bouncing down her back as she walks.
"The boys are still out in the fields playing." She turns around. His black hair falls into his face, his black eyes smoldering, and he is wearing his military uniform.
"Why won't you tell them Trish?" He calls her by her nickname he has given her. Her face fell and she looked away.
"The boys are dedicated to their father." Her eyes trail the floor. "Yet, I wish to be happy too." She whispered.
His fists clenched and he looked down. She walked over to him and placed her hand on his bicep.
"Please Roy, take no offense. I'm only trying to do what's right." Her eyes gleamed with upcoming tears and Roy Mustang instantly shied away.
"Edward is to become a great alchemist." He looked out the window. "He takes after his father, you know this don't you? He could be put through a lot of danger."
"I understand…" she shook her head slightly. "Edward is capable of great things. Just like his father, I'm sure he will make it out safely.
Roy took an intake of breath, and clenched his jaw, feeling a sense of guilt pour over him like rainfall.
"How could I ever bear to tell her the truth about Van?" He coughed to cover up the sudden emotion and stepped closer to the door.
"I will come back in a few days, I must head to back to the main quarters." He whirled around suddenly and grabbed Trisha's head and gently kissed her forehead.
"Remember…" He whispered. "I care." He turned around and out the door he went. She stood there, still as could be. She held her hands to her chest and clenched her fists.
"I have to do something…" she muttered aloud. Trisha walked upstairs and flickered the light off and on, signaling her sons to return.
Moments later the boys came bursting through the door laughing.
"Hi mom! Ed found a frog, can we keep it?" Al ran over to her, hugging her leg and looking up at her.
"Uhh." She smiled nervously. "I'm sorry Edward, the frog belongs in the wild." She ushered him to the door.
"But Mommmm!" Edward whined. He huffed then went out to the tallest grass to let it free.
Trisha looked down the small road to see any signs of Roy. She sighed and waited for her oldest son to return.
"You are destined to be something great…like your father."
