I just wanted to thank you for all of your wonderful reviews. Like I said earlier, some of these chapters are really short, and I'm sorry. I'm going to try to make it up to you by posting a longer chapter today as well.

Just think of chocolate. Sometimes it's better when it's in small doses.


Sam had no choice but to leave her precious lab for the duration of her leave, due to her lie.

As she entered her home, she was overwhelmed with the feeling of how nice it was to be in her own home again, not just in base quarters. She liked her comfy and modern apartment, decorated in dark greens and light blues.

But, it was a bad day. She reminded herself.

She went to her room and changed from her jeans and t-shirt to some sweats. She wasn't in the best of moods, though actually being home helped a little.

She went into the kitchen. She got her blue jell-o and a couple of sappy chick flicks, and sat down on her couch.

Only then, she let her tears fall.


To Be Continued . . .

It'll get better, eventually, I hope. Just keep reviewing, and I'll keep writing, so that I can end your overwhelming suspense!
