Eva cried out, “How could you? How could you do this to me again”? Tears flowed down her face like water from Niagara Falls. Tom dropped to his knees, grabbing at her pants leg and begging for one more chance. “Please Eva, you’re the only woman who owns my heart, my soul, my everything.” “You should’ve thought of that when her nails were clawing down your back, making sure I’d see the evidence of your unforgivable infidelity!” she cried.
Tom sobbed uncontrollably as his mind went between flashbacks of his idiotic decision and his relationship with Eva that he so desperately wanted to keep. He didn’t think he’d ever be caught, but he was and now the damage was too much to repair. His obsessive drinking caused him to make a piss poor decision, a one night stand that may have just ruined his whole future.
Eva ripped her leg from his grip. As she walked away she said, “We could have had a wonderful life together. You ended that when you did this to me for the very last time. Good bye Tom, for good this time.”

Doing it for the troops
The others dropped like flies around me. We fought and struggled to get to this point. I'm the only one left now. The objective is right there. A mere two hundred feet away. The last of my team got a bullet to the head right next to me, but I couldn't do anything. I was able to locate and neutralise the sniper as he shot my friend, so his death was at least not in vain.
