30
~~~ Warren's
POV~~~
As a man I don't like
admitting to crying.
I was raised as a man to do as my elders said and to answer
'yes' and 'nomam'
I grew up with a wealthy father as a banker and a loving mother
as a school teacher. Father had always been good to the only
kid,me.
I was a only child growing up.
My friends used to hang out with me only for what I had, not what
was inside.
I grew up wearing the fanciest things.
The food I ate was always prepared by our chef,Paul.
He was almost my second father at the time.
He'd teach me the finest things about cooking.
The best way to prepare the food.
That's how I created my famous pancakes.
I was about seven and Paul had gone out to the market to gather
some items for the days menu.
I wanted to show him I was a good chef so I decided to make
pancakes for him.
I added many ingredients until I ran out of milk.
Each thing I added I wrote down. It created a list long enough
for Santa.
As I made them I sang out loud causing my parents to wake up.
My mother in her night pull over and father in his slippers.
They came down the marble staircase slowly inhaling the gracious
smell of what I had created.
"Paul, is that you?" my mother questioned.
I quickly grabbed a handful of flour and patted it on my face and
shirt.
"It's me mom. I made breakfeast."
I saw her face appear and a smile covered her face.
Father laughed a nice laugh and they both sat down at the
bar.
I layed the plates of pancakes in front of them and they dug
in.
I saved my very first pancake for Paul when he returned.
Though on that day, he didn't.

I looked at the face that was floating.
Could he be dead? Gone?
His body was going to sink soon from the uniform that he
wore.
Brandon looked as if he'd left this world.
I quickly swam to exam his face.
His pupils were going dark as they looked into me.
Chills swept my spine. He couldn't be gone.
I saw our boat that had stationed in one area to where it
didn't move an inch.
I yelled as water swelled up in my eyes.
Brandon would never see the baby.
His girl would go on without waking up to him.
I had to save him.
The guys noticed us and a small boat came to us.
I pushed Brandon atop first.
Later, I crawled up.
They quickly undressed Brandon above the waist.
I saw the tatoos that were inked to his skin.
One on the left of his arm read 'God is Love'
I saw another on his right arm that had a cross with quotes
around it.
He was a good Christian guy. That releaved to me alittle
more about him.
If he had gone out of this haunting world,he'd gone to
heaven.
I borded the dock and the carried Brandon to the medicial
floor.
I watched the water from where I'd just been.
It was dark and gloomy revealing the lifelessness of it.
The doctor came back to me and whispred something to the
commander which I sat beside.
The eyes of the commander shifted to me and I eyed them trying to
read what he was told.
I stood up letting the oxygen fill my eyes preparing for the
news.
He had a deep quiet voice,
"Well I have two things to tell you."
I shrugged and nodded as he continued,
"First of all, your going home today."
My mouth fell open. I would see Jane's face again.
My rough lips would touch her rose skin again.
"But the bad news is...."
I looked at him. His eyes were dark.
"Brandon......didn't make it......."
When I heard those words I slowly closed my mouth, sat down, and
closed my eyes, praying it was all a
dream.
