December 13th – Wednesday
Ed turned the doorknob and opened the door to the colonel's office. Sticking his head in, the teen quickly looked around and frowned when he saw that no one was in there. He sighed and let himself into the room.
Where could he be?
It was like he was almost always gone now...
A stack of folders sat on the desk and Ed walked over and looked down at them. There was a note that read:
Colonel –
I would appreciate it if you
would sign these and
return them to me before
you go gallivanting around
doing any more personal
things. It is difficult for me
to get my work done because
I have to wait for these forms
to come back to me before
working with them. I know
you know this, but I just
wanted to reiterate that.
- R.H.
Ed frowned at the note. 'Gallivanting around doing personal things?'
It had been almost two weeks since they'd had their date, and since that time he'd barely seen Roy at all. They'd had lunch together on Sunday, but then the colonel had said he'd needed to go do something. When Ed called, he usually got the answering machine, and even when Roy did return his calls, it was when Ed was out and so he only got hurried messages on his machine.
Ed felt a little guilty for thinking Roy might be seeing someone else, but what else could he think?
What personal things was he doing?
The teen thrust his hands in his pockets and trudged unhappily out of the office. Maybe he should just talk to Roy... That would be the best thing, wouldn't it?
Next postdates are: 17th, 19th, 20th, 22nd, 23rd, 24th, and 25th
