Why Is He Late?




The prompt: With him, she’d had some wonderfully stable times.



                “Hello, I’m Sarah Wells, and I’m an alcoholic.” She looked at the men and women in the room—retired grandfathers, working mothers, even college students. All addicted to alcohol.
        “I haven’t had a drink in three months,” she said, “ever since I met Rob.”
        She smiled, remembering how they’d met at an AA meeting. They both shared common interests and common problems. With him, she’d had some wonderfully stable times.
        “Rob isn’t here tonight, and I’m worried. If he starts drinking again, I hope I can stay sober.”
         Sarah heard the door open and turned around.
        Rob smiled. “Hi, sweetie.”
