#TEASER
A month later, Travis walked out of his apartment building
and slid into the yellow taxi cab that had been waiting for him. He instructed
the driver to take him to the airport and then shifted his attention out the
window. Travis had finally been able to take the brace off his shoulder a
couple weeks ago, but his shoulder was still stiff and ached when he used it
too much. There wasn’t much mobility left in the joint, which just added to the
rumors of his career being over. After a lot of thought, Travis had decided
that in order to figure out his future, he needed to face his past. However,
instead of replying back to Jack Garrison confirming that he was coming back to
Clarendon for homecoming, Travis had merely booked a flight back to Texas.
“Sir, we’re here,” the driver said, pulling Travis out of
his inner reflections.
“Thanks,” he replied, opening the door and climbing out.
Travis dragged his suitcase from the backseat and let it flop onto the ground
before he fished his wallet out of his back pocket, slipping a couple of
twenties out. “This should be more than enough.”
“Oh, well, thanks.” Hesitating for just a moment, the driver
picked up his log book and flipped it to the back page. “Can I get an
autograph? You know, for my son?”
Travis laughed and took the book and pen the man had dug out
of his pocket. “Sure thing. What’s his name?”
“Harrison. He’s a huge fan of yours. Only four-years-old,
and he’s already convinced that he’ll be a big star just like you.”
“Well, good luck to him,” Travis murmured. He scribbled his
name and a note that said ‘Keep dreaming’ on the log book before handing it
back to the driver. “I hope he makes it.”
The man looked down at his book and smiled. “I just want him
to be happy.”
“Most fathers do.” Travis pushed away from the taxi and
headed inside the airport.
Half an hour later, he’d managed to check in for his flight
and was sitting outside of his gate. He had on a pair of black sunglasses, and
he was leaning his head against the wall behind his chair. Travis stretched his
legs out, crossing them at the ankle, and folded his arms in front of his
chest. No matter how hard he tried, he couldn’t get his shoulders to relax.
When Travis left, he’d crushed the one woman who’d ever
cared about him: Penelope.
She owned his heart and soul; she was the one person who’d
ever believed that he’d be able to do anything he set his mind to. The day he’d
left her had been the hardest moment of his life — at least until now. Going
home was proving to be even harder.
