Summary
The thunder cracked, the lightning striked, and the rain drummed upon the roof of his small house, his wife's snores accompanying the cacophonic noises that kept him awake, awake enough to leave the warmth of his bed and enter the kitchen, a burning wick providing the only light in the otherwise dead room. The flickering candle illuminated the small book in front of him, a book bound with leather, the pages yellowed and swollen with the years and words that filled them. He fumbled through the pages with no true purpose- it was just another lonely night with rain, much like the nights he encountered overseas, so he had to seek comfort in something- the things he carried, like the dog tags of fallen comrades, jaded photos of his high school friends, a pack of cigarettes, and the small book he carried like it was the Bible. He thumbed through the small pages until he found what he really was looking for, the real reason he was up in the middle of the night, looking through a book filled with memories, traumatic and otherwise. And like it was instinct, he grabbed his coat, laced up his boots, and braved the storm.
