it Β was Β her Β own Β fault Β for Β getting Β attached Β to Β a Β soldier Β she Β had Β no Β business Β getting Β all Β tangled Β up Β with. Β such Β a Β foolish Β girl, Β falling Β for Β bucky Β like Β that Β β Β like Β there Β was Β no Β risk Β of Β him Β being Β another Β name Β on Β a Β memorial Β plaque. Β stupid, Β stupid, Β stupid. Β and Β now Β she Β had Β to Β live Β in Β her Β heartache Β and Β the Β way Β her Β stomach Β twisted Β in Β knots Β and Β her Β eyes Β barely Β felt Β inspired Β to Β stay Β open. Β she Β was Β so Β desperately Β sad, Β distracting Β herself Β with Β work. Β they Β said Β he Β was Β gone Β and Β she Β couldnβt Β even Β react. Β she Β had Β to Β wait Β until Β she Β was Β alone Β in Β her Β bed, Β silently Β sobbing Β into Β her Β blankets Β while Β she Β accepted Β her Β future Β was Β gone Β β Β her Β future. Β now Β she Β just Β idled Β the Β hours Β away Β by Β cleaning Β instruments, Β folding Β towels, Β and Β tending Β to Β minor Β wounds. Β she Β didnβt Β even Β hear Β all Β the Β chaos Β outside Β the Β tent Β until Β a Β nurse Β poked Β her Β head Β in Β and Β whispered Β something Β about Β some Β infantry Β coming Β back Β β Β but Β she Β couldnβt Β make Β it Β out. Β she Β didnβt Β care, Β not Β really. Β so Β she Β stayed Β in Β the Β supply Β tent, Β going Β through Β inventory Β on Β a Β clipboard Β as Β the Β others Β outside Β cheered Β for Β the Β soldiers Β return.
