A Table For Two
“For two, please,” the woman muttered, fondling the wedding ring on her slim finger. The waiter escorted her to an empty table with a dim candle.
“Would you like anything to drink?”
“Just a glass of wine for me.”
“Anything else?” His eyes were fixed on the bare seat, before shifting to her.
She shook her head firmly, avoiding eye contact. As the waiter walked away, the woman pulled out a small picture frame and placed it on the opposite end of the table. It bared the image of a man in uniform. She smiled at him solemnly.
Happy anniversary.
