her sobs stain the floor and sees the mothers and wives and children the same, she feels arms wrapping around her "sam?"she looks up with already swollen eyes "my train is the next one thats just for the troops"she nods and cries into the nape of his neck "sam..."she looks up at his dark yet icy eyes "what was the sweet answer" he remembers the time when they were sat talking about the worst things that while happen to tommy and he asked if she wanted a sweat or savoury answer

"he will come back intact and love you more than ever before..."
