Ethan turned his head sideways as he studied J.T.'s
face. Wide eyed, the boy pointed at the scar with his index
finger. J.T. wasn't surprised. The kid was probably curious.
"How'd you get that?"
"A piece of shrapnel—" He paused and considered
Ethan's age. "I was in the war. A bomb went off and a piece
of metal smacked me in the face."
"Does it hurt?"
"Not anymore." J.T. marveled at the innocence in
Ethan's eyes.
"Can I touch it?"
"I guess so." J.T. breathed in and waited. Ethan
hesitated, leaning closer.
"I'm not supposed to talk about your scar."
"Who said?"
"Mama."
"It's okay. I won't tell."
J.T. turned his head to the side. No one had outright
asked to touch the constant reminder of a day when his best
friend caught the worst of an IUD. Hell, people shied away
from his right side. Except Leigh, she looked him square in
the face. He lay still while Ethan poked a finger into the
scar a couple of times. After a few seconds of
investigation, the kid cupped the scar with his small hand
and patted lightly. The oddest thing happened to J.T.'s
heart. It swelled inside his chest and then clenched.
"Mama said you were a brave soldier."
Alien emotions swirled through J.T. and an
unexplained urge to hug Ethan put a weird lump in J.T.'s
throat. Unable to cope or understand, his mind raced for an
idea, anything to end the moment.
