I feel so stupid

For the first time I cried before he left
Some things really happen beyond our control. I tried so hard to hide what I feel, but it flowed. When her sister called crying, all the more I couldn't stop myself. It was suppose to be our first Christmas and New Year together. But duty calls. He reminded me to hide my sadness and just smile. Happy thoughts, he said. No email and no phone call, I replied. Sigh! Life must go on. It's just temporary.
