I keep coming back to Arete.
Fifth visit. Same mountains. Same memories I can’t shake loose. The men who made this place bearable are gone, and I’ve run out of good reasons to keep showing up.
Then Walker Rhodes walks through the door.
Our medic. A bullet took him out early. I was the only one left when it was over, or so I thought. Five years of nothing. No calls. No explanations. I don’t know if we were protecting each other or just protecting ourselves.
He’s harder now. Doesn’t smile the way I remember. But he looks at the leg I came home without and calls it a story. He looks at me like I’m still worth something. And then he tells me I’m wasting everything the families of our dead have sacrificed to give me.
He’s always been the only man who made me wonder if I was as straight as I believed.
When they come for him, I stop wondering. Badges. Guns. The whole ugly machine.
I call my mother at three in the morning. I board a plane. I spend every favor I have left to make sure he gets a fighting chance.
I want you. That’s what I wanted to say.
But I didn’t.
