He left on Monday. It was a good day though, he didn't have to be at the airport until the evening, so we had the whole day almost to spend together.
This time I was able to get to the gate, and of course since I brought his orders with us, they didn't need to see them...GO FIGURE...
We ate at the little cafeteria place by his gate, and then went and sat at the gate until it was time to board.
The airline had everyone clap for the service members and that made me cry...and then they started boarding, and he was one of the first on the plane.
I couldn't bring myself to leave the gate. I thought it would hurt more to stay, but I don't know, since I did stay. I just really could not get up and leave, and it was so hard to do that when the plane was taxi-ing away...I kept looking back at it, and watching it...I finally decided to just let it go, and get some Starbucks, I mean, a little pick me up is always good, right?
After he had boarded and they were getting the last people on and ready to leave, there was a rainbow, and it was over the plane, I think it was good luck, at least that's what I like to tell myself...
it's really hard to see, but it's there, above the jetway (is that what that is called?) |
