1. Gone again

"Please, don't go," I begged Philip.

"Andrea, you know I have make money to support the family," Philip said putting his clothes in his suitcase. I hated that damn suitcase. It was nothing but a reminder he be gone again.

"Honestly, I could get a job making twice what you earn. Then you could work part time somewhere that does not require this continuous travel," I pleaded.

"Andrea, we've talked about this before. I am a man, and have to support my family. I don't want you working all the time. Now come here and give me a kiss," He said pulling me closer. I press my lips toward his. His lips were warm against mine. I could almost not be mad at him. Almost.

"I love you," Philip whispered looking at me with those soft brown eyes.

"Hurry back home," I said wrapping my arms around him.

"I will," He smiled. Our teenage daughters came walking down the hall to give him hugs and kisses.

"Bring be back something cool from the road," Taylor said kissing his cheek.

"Don't I always?"

Taylor at fifteen year old was my easy-going child. She never gets upset when Philip left for work. Our thirteen year old Allie was another story.

"Are you going to make it back for homecoming? I am the queen, and I want you to escort me at the football game," She said looking pissed. I understood the feeling.

"I am going to try Allie, but if I can not make it you could get your friend Cooper to take my place," He said sweetly.

"Just get back in time," She said kissing his cheek quickly then leaving the room.

"Come, on Allie. You know how much daddy loves you," He said as she walked away.

"She'll calm down, and I have her call you," I said giving one last kiss.

"Love you, baby. And I will call you tonight," He promised.

I watched as he walked to the truck. Did he not know he broke my heart every time he left?
