Apollos' POV.
Man, I miss her.
I stare off into space, remembering all that I loved about her. My life seemed less good now.
Sure, I'm glad I can fight for my country and my people.... but I miss my friends. I miss my girlfriend.
Pandora whispers, trying to understand, "Missing her? "
I nod, a tear falling down my face.
I dry it before the leader sees.
Pandora sighs, "Don't play tough. It won't help if you do break down."
I shake my head, another tear breaking my attempt at toughness.
Pandora warbles, sending me calming waves.
I stare at the blue sky, rememberig her eyes. How soft, and kind they were.
Man, I've got this bad.
The leader screams something, but I can't hear him. Or her. Whatever.
All I can hear is what she said before I left, "I love you too. I'd like that."
I can tell she meant it.
Why. Why now? Why right before I had to leave, possibly never to return? Why... why..,
Pandora warbles, saddness echoing over the sky.
The leader signals to land.
I follow him down, and I pitch my tent quickly.
I crash inside, Pandora going away on her own.
I rest my head on my pillow.
I feel tears fall, but I let them.
I remember all our flights together.
I make a decision, "I'm making it home. For her. No matter what."
I write that down, and tuck it into my bag. I write everything I'm feeling. All that I remember about us. All the flights. All of it. All of it....
Before I crash for the night, a thought slams into me, "I wonder what she's thinking about right now? Does she miss me too?"
