Too Late

We crowded into the bathroom together. Sam unbuttoned her jeans and sat down on the toliet. With bated breath we each held a corner of the stick. A quick kiss. We waited for the result to show. Would be it be plus or minus?

Tears formed in Sam’s eyes. I bolted from the room, slamming the front door on the way out.

My harley roared to life. First stop was the hospital. I had to tell Dad, give him something to live for.

The nurse stopped me in hall outside his now empty room. “We’ve been trying to reach you.”

Well done, @sevendust04. You did a great job of telling a very emotional story in very simple language, with actions telling most of the story. That is hard to do, but you did it very well!

Indeed! I was very moved. Powerful use of language.

Congrats @sevendust04! ((:

Awww, so sad. I thought he left the house because he was mad. Now his dad will never know.
