We get to the gate in the airport where Shawn crosses the line, and I don't. I wake my final goodbye and watch him leave. He's gone in the blink of an eye. I turn back a go towards the door closest to where I'm parked. The drive home felt long. Even after last night's conversation I still feel worry built up inside me. I'm sure I'll be fine. I'll get over it a soon as he texts me or FaceTimes me telling me how much he loves and misses me. Truth is I miss him already. I don't even know if I can make it through the summer without him. I can't let him down, I must fight. I get home, lay on the couch and cry. I miss him. My one day off, is very possibly my last.
