What's this?
 
* * * *
Bliss Steadmon didn't know which direction her life would take as she turned into the parking lot. According to her car's compass, she headed south. But where was she going? She had to be going somewhere.
Her usual parking place sat open and waiting for her. She pulled in, turned off the engine and closed her eyes. Where will I be ten years from now?
This morning she was at work. Physically, at least. She took the job to get by. It seemed that's all she'd been doing since Jeff left; just getting by.
Lugging her heavy cotton-weave purse into the hotel lobby, she smiled at the night clerk. The bleary-eyed woman smiled back.
"Was it a wild night?" Bliss asked Sally Macon, the woman behind the counter.
"The usual round of Friday night drunks, tired truckers, and a few late driving travelers," she answered with a yawn.
"Nothing new, then."
That's how it went, the status quo.
Six months ago, Bliss had her life all planned out. She and Jeff would be married, and she would be a military wife. Navy bases here and there would be her home. They were going to have children. The whole happily ever after had been a ring finger's reach away.
Then came the "we're still really young" speech Jeff gave her just before he said he was shipping out. There would be no wedding. Bliss hoped his toes were frostbitten from the case of cold feet he'd gotten.
