Unexpected Call
Her face lit up as she saw ‘Hubby’ on her screen. She answered expecting him to update her with a flight time, but instead, her world stopped once more.
He told her that there was a delay in his return home. Injured soldiers were being prioritized which meant he’d have to wait a bit longer to secure a space. Emily noted that he sounded rushed and in a panic. But when she asked him if everything was okay, he said yes and told her he’d call again soon.
