Erin, 25 married to her high school sweet heart Cole. They have been each others everything for the last ten years. She spends her evenings in routine preparing her and her children for the evenings after a day of work. She puts on a smile as she lays down to sleep. Closing her eyes she sees the flash backs of her and Cole locking hands as they pass the lockers in the hallway. As she breathes in she can feel his hands holding her face as he kisses her right before third block. She reaches across her bed, tracing an empty place, opens her eyes as a tear falls from her eye. There on the nightstand it comes back. The picture. Reminding her of who robbed her sweet Cole. The uniform. The deployment.
