Another Chapter
The movie they have on board begins to play. I continue to stare out the window. My heart slightly aches for leaving my babies at home. I knew this trip was coming, but this is the first time in almost thirteen years I've left them for over three days.
I feel a light touch to the back of my head. "Babe, you alright?"
"Mmmhhmm." I say with delight as shivers run through me.
"The boys are with your parents; they'll be fine."
"I know. I'm just gonna miss them."
Jake pulls my face close to his, looks deep into my eyes, and I know everything will be all right. His lips meet mine–they are soft, comforting–not once, not twice but three times he kisses me. Jake let's go of my face as I let out a small sigh. I nod and turn towards the window. I feel the weight of his hand on mine.
I will post until I feel tired.
