A Glass of Wine
After that night, things ain't quite the same anymore.
I couldn't take my eyes off her, and everytime we see each other, we'd look into each other's eyes, instantly smiling. We did that all the time, but...today, I can't really describe this different feeling. It's warm and bittersweet in a cold rainy Monday morning, like a steal of a sip of red wine shortly after getting up from bed. Warming my heart a little, that little sip got me a little tipsy. I wanted to stop, at that, but I couldn't; each little sip from the glass is just so sweet, and though each one knocks me back from reality, which I have worked so hard to avoid, I crave for yet another sip...

Sector E (Secured Area)
"I've heard Sgt Reinhardt returned to Sector E/P1 Area after he's barely healed from that shot."
"Yea, I knew about it. That day, he armed himself and went back, despite his injuries. I couldn't quite stop him. But then again, no one could stop him - he's lots many of his buddies that night."
"Sigh.... At least the good news is that, he cleared out Sector E. But sir, I think we've lost him, Reinhardt never return. Perhaps he's on his way to HQ. If it's true sir, it's another piece of good news - he's always been wanting to go back and see his friends and family. And Captain Ivan never gave him that chance before that Pearl Garden disaster..."
"...oh yeah sir, some of our boys scouting near HQ briefly saw Reinhardt, heard he's doing okay."
"I see. Alright Dylan, you can go now. Glad that boy is still alive."
Lieutenant Anders wrote Reinhardt off his list. With that, Sergeant Reinhardt is off from his camp.
Intelligence gathered Sergeant Reinhardt sneaked back to E/P1 that night, barely recovered from his injury. Apparently, he returned to that area to clean up some loose ends, destroyed a portion of the remaining enemy base. Even though the resistance had already left the area, Reinhardt turned some of enemy computers, commo-lines into ashes. After some brief work there, Reinhardt left the area, but never returned to camp. Apparently, he returned to HQ instead.
"I think that boy's in Sector R now (which is in between Sector E and HQ). He's gonna meet some resistance with the indigenous forces there, I hope he's got enough ammo with him. Good luck, Hardt." With that, Anders turned off his table light, and went back to rest.
