Sarah sat there for a few seconds, wondering what had just happened. They had been so happy to see each other; she had nearly climbed into his lap to be close to him. He had been as happy as she’d expected about the baby, and then simply because she’d turned down his sweet offer to give the baby his last name, he’d taken it as a personal rejection.

It hadn’t been that at all. She still wanted him for a friend, a friend that she cared for very much. She was willing to see where the relationship would take them, but it was too soon to let him into the baby’s life, and her own. They had only been involved with each other for a little more than a week. When they made love, she knew it was special and she believed with all her heart that he was kind and gentle. All she wanted was time. The baby wouldn’t be popping out anytime soon. She had close to eight months to get to know Mick better if he would let her. She knew she had hurt him, but she hadn’t meant for it to be that way. She had to plan a future for her and her baby, and she needed more time to decide whether or not Mick would be a permanent player in their lives. She hoped he’d be.

Right now though, it was time to come clean with Meghan, and hope her sister would take the news well. Sarah made a quick stop on her way home, wanting to cook dinner and give Meghan a night away from the kitchen.

She had wanted Mick to be with them, and couldn’t help but feel sorry for him and for herself. Mick would be alone tonight in his empty apartment instead of the warmth of the Watts home and the companionship of his friends. Yet maybe this was something she had to do alone.

She entered the quiet house knowing she’d be by herself. Another couple of hours and everyone would charge in at once, but she had a few things to do. Keats greeted her at the door, yipping with excitement, so she took him for a quick walk down the street, her mind plotting and scheming with ideas. Once he had done his deed, they went back in and she removed her coat and her boots, and tossed Keats some treats before closing the door to her bedroom.

She had two things she needed to accomplish. Before preparing dinner, she wanted to make something special for Meghan and for Byron. And for their baby. Something they could all share with pride.

Sarah was determined to learn more about her dad’s life in the army, to find something that would make them all proud. And tonight she wanted to understand him better, wondering if his truths would help her to understand Mick. Two very different wars, but a similar outcome for both men. Back on home ground, they’d fought hard to forget the things they’d done instead of remembering with acceptance and pride.
