Things seemed to be going good for Trapper he made new memories with his family, reacquainted himself with old neighbors and just generally enjoyed being with his family. He didn't get a job though he wanted to spend some more time with his family first. Trapper kept track of the war though he just needed to know what was happening
To his old army buddies. The war was still going on with know end in sight and even though Trapper had only been there for a few months it felt like an eternity.
There was a knock on the door and setting down his paper he walked to the door and stooped in his tracks. That face he knew that face. "Mr. MacIntyre?" the lady at the door asked. Trapper opened it and stepped outside "Remember me?" she asked when he said nothing she said " I'm Marge Cutler you fought for me in the boxing tournament so I could stay but not long after that I got shipped to Tokyo General and we-, you know".
Trapper still said nothing it wasn't that he had forgotten but he was trying to forget he never told he wife what happened in Korea he just couldn't. " Why did you come here?"
"because I love you" she moved to embrace him but he stepped back.
Just then Louise pulled up in the family car with Kathy and Becky in the back in their car seats. She had picked the kids up from preschool because she thought they had needed a little time alone. She got out of the car and eyed them curiously "What's going here?" "Who are you?" Cutler asked. " I'm his wife I'll ask the questions," she snapped.
"Mommy!" Kathy pleaded she had forgotten about the kids. " I'm going to bring the kids inside when I come outside she better be gone" she glared at Cutler " and you better tell me what's going on" her glare was now aimed at Trapper.
Louise took the kids inside and Trapper just stood their not knowing what to do or what to say. Cutler started sobbing and ran off. " Now where did she come from she probably lived nearby now which means that there would be more trouble in the future.
With a sigh Trapper walked back into the house and found Louise watching him as she said, "The kids are in bed". He nodded. "Who was she?" " Louise I meant to tell you-" "oh no Trapper just no" she knew what was coming. "I-" He gulped and shut his eyes against tears. " I was involved with several women" the tears were coming now.
Louise just stared off into the distance and cried softly. Then little Becky came in and asked, "Are mommy and daddy fighting?" Trapper walked over to her picked her up and gently put her back into her bed. Then gently kissing her silently left her room and then the house.
