Rough Seas

Rain fell around the area, pelting the ground, and a lone figure stood in the falling water. Eyes watched the lights go out one by one across the street, the house that had forsaken him, the house that held all the memories of a happier time, and the house that brought all the dreadful memories to light. He gave a heavy sigh, turned away from the house, and began his trek through the rain back to where he was supposed to be. The moment that he entered the building that housed the others, he was met with stern eyes and worry. He sighed, I'm fine.

This got the attention of all of them present so they opted to sit in the small lounge area to hear the two interesting tales that their captain had come across. These two men had different situations but they're both very happy with how it turned out. He sipped his coffee as the others waited in anticipation, Todd opted to sip his as well just as he stated, They both got married to mail order brides.
