The Soldier
Frank goes into battle against a fierce enemy
Frank crouched behind a tree. He gripped his weapon tightly, looking around to spot the enemy. Sweat was dripping down his face. Frank was the only one left from his squad, as the enemy had taken out the rest.
Frank slowly crept forward, looking around to ensure the enemy wasn't near.
Frank saw two enemy soldiers walking down a pathway on his left, so he aimed, but two paintballs hit him before he could shoot.
"You're out, Frank, and you're the last of your team, so we win!"
Frank just looked at his friend and said, "Shit!"

Almost
Jazna tells Isaac she’s leaving on a Tuesday morning, while the kitchen is still dim and soft with early light. She waits until the kettle finishes boiling, because she doesn’t want her voice to compete with the noise. Or maybe because she needs those last few seconds to steady herself. “I’m going today,” she says.
