It took some time, but she was able to wipe off the dirty smudges of mislaid shame, straighten her seams, stand straight and tall, and flush her false, misplaced self-guilt down the drain. She was neither the cause nor the reason for the insult that Dieter had cast upon her.

Teeth gritted, she swung her head back to hear a sickening crunch. He was bleeding from his nose. She ran to the cabin and picked up the phone which was on its fifth ring. Somebody answered. "Hallo?" The general looked at her with fear in his eyes. "Don't." He mouthed. "I'm sorry," she said bringing the phone up to her mouth. _____ "The Royal Resistance. 1945. WWII. Evacuate to Lisbon. Over."
