"Flight 8118 to Boston is in final boarding now - all ticketed passengers must proceed to Gate 26A immediately!"
It was a tearful goodbye. A new job. A new location.
A new life? "No way!" she exclaimed.
Promises that the distance wouldn't break their love, that it would be eliminated "soon enough". Those empty words haunt now.
A pile of memories burns in the fireplace. An engagement notice from the Boston Herald joins the smoky purge as he now says a final and much less mournful farewell.
