The Clock on the Wall
Matthew Ryan Fischer
He kept checking the clock. It was time. He was sure of it. But
the phone hadn’t rung yet. He was sure of that too. He had checked that enough
times. And so he waited.
It could have been the greatest thing ever. It should have been.
He didn’t know.
He missed her every day ever.
She told him she
was pregnant. She thought maybe that would make him stay. But she had said so
many things before.
He wished he knew the truth. But he never knew what to trust.
Instead he looked at the clock again. He was sure if was over by
now.
If it had ever happened.
His life would never be the same. Either way. Life would never be
the same.
