Max looked at Megan. A lump formed in his throat. "I have to leave already."
"But you just got here!"
"I know. I'm sorry." He did not want to leave yet, but what else could he do. He'd be pronounced AWOL if he didn't obey the direct orders. "I don't want to leave." He hugged her tightly.
Tears streamed down her face as he said one last goodbye and walked away. He hated that he had to leave, but he also had signed up for it. He could only take it a day at a time until he could return. If he returned alive, that is.
