Dear Ex-wife Marry Me by Twin Bridge

Maja stumbled towards the general direction where the past had unfolded, only to find devastation greater than her darkest

imaginations.

The yard that once stood was long gone, the area not even qualifying as ruins anymore. All that remained were outlines of the old

foundations scattered on the ground.

It was clear that a shell had hit the yard squarely. If anyone had been inside, judging by the ferocity of the blast, it was likely they

were vaporized, leaving behind neither limb nor fragment, but only a mist of blood.

Her heart clenched painfully, and she squatted down to plant a small wooden cross in the desolate earth before shuffling away, her

soul a heavy shadow trailing behind her.

Beck was waiting for her right where the helicopter had touched down. Seeing her ashen face, he quickly handed her an oxygen

tank.

"Is the air bothering you here?" he asked.

Maja shook her head, her pallor visibly deepening.

Beck helped her aboard the helicopter, and they didn't return to the hospital where lan was until dusk.

Sitting in the corridor, Maja felt a pounding headache.

When the doctor finally emerged, she quickly inquired, "How is he?"

"Strong will to live. He should wake up by tomorrow."

Relief washed over her, but then the scenes she had witnessed on the island churned in her stomach.

She dashed to the bathroom in her hospital room and retched, but nothing cout.
