Air Kiss

 

Beth and Ron were high school sweet hearts. They loved each other from the very beginning. Getting marred after collage knowing they were meant to be. But one day the army called to take Ron away. Saying he had to go for he was being deployed in to the war. With one last hug a week later he said “Every night before you go to bed. Kiss the air, and it will fly to me wherever I am”.

Beth did this every night for two months. Until she got a call from the army saying Ron had been killed. She fell to her knees and heard the man say, “The last thing he spoke was, I received them all.” The tears flew from her eyes as she once more kissed the air. Knowing wherever he was he still got her kiss. Beth did this every night knowing one day she would see him again.
