Nate knew his calming tone would relax his wife, he was fighting back his emotions, more than anything he didn’t want to have to leave his life behind, he didn’t want to have to leave his wife all alone, with him at war he couldn’t be here to protect her. He knew to that this would break her heart and he really didn’t want to have to do that to his wife, but he really had no choice a man who didn’t go to war and fight for his country wasn’t a man at all. “When will you sign up?” he heard his friend’s voice and it brought him from his thoughts. He pulled a cigar from the inside of his suite jacket offering one to Clive before lighting his own and taking a few slow drawn out puffs from the cigar. “The sooner the better.” He stated as if they were simply talking about taking their wives to dinner, but this wasn’t that simple. “We should sign up together, but I can’t tell Viv until after I sign up or she will do everything in her power to ensure I don’t sign up.” He let out a small chuckle at the thought of the lengths his wife would go to make sure he stayed by her side.

Sabrina took a deep breath as she followed after her friend to get the tea she was trying her hardest not to think about everything, it was all happening so fast and then in a rush it hit her. Her face grew hot and her head grew heavy. “I need to sit.” She said softly as she entered the kitchen, she looked as though she might pass out. She sat down and closed her eyes for a moment trying to calm her emotions. It seemed like forever before she spoke. “He’s going to leave.” She finally said venerability present in her voice as tears slipped from her eyes. “He’s too prideful to stay, I’m going to lose him.” She said more so talking to herself but she was saying it loud enough for Vivien to hear. Usually she could keep her emotions under control, she always wore a smile even when her and Clive had small arguments, but she just couldn’t hold back what she was feeling now.
