\n

While deciding whether to apply for admission to a military academy, Samantha had been so wrapped up in the research she hadn\u2019t paid attention to Dwayne and Renee. Once she had made up her mind, she sought out Dwayne to tell him her decision. She found him with Renee on the front lawn, and they both acted sheepish. When she confronted Dwayne, he reluctantly told her that both he and Renee felt she was a controlling personality and that they were dating. Feeling betrayed, she started crying and ran away from Dwayne.<\/strong><\/p>\n

I ran all the way home, blubbering almost the whole way. By the time I arrived at the front door, I had slowed to a jog. On the way I had gone through all the stages of grief and my eyes were dry. Losing Dwayne was painful, but I realized it was nothing compared to losing Brian. And I had to admit it was my doing. I was still angry, but it was more for Dwayne turning Renee against me.<\/p>\n

The run had calmed me down, but now I was hot and sweaty. Mom heard me come in. \u201cYou\u2019re home early,\u201d she called from the kitchen. I headed that way.<\/p>\n

\u201cI ran the whole way.\u201d<\/p>\n

She was putting a batch of cookies out to cool. As soon as she looks at me, she knew. \u201cYou\u2019ve been crying.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cDwayne and I broke up.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cAh, teenage romances. They don\u2019t always hold up.\u201d She pointed at the cookies. \u201cI just made these for Nelson\u2019s kindergarten class tomorrow. Maybe a cookie or two would make you feel better. Have a seat.\u201d She pulled out a chair and turned it toward me.<\/p>\n

She sat down facing me and pushed the cooling rack over to me. \u201cYou want to talk about it?\u201d<\/p>\n

Picking up one of the still warm cookies, I stared at it for a moment. \u201cI\u2019m not sure I\u2019m cut out for romance. Bill turned out to be a nice guy but wasn\u2019t ready to commit to anything. Dwayne is terrific, but he\u2019s another Type A personality. He called me a control freak. I hadn\u2019t realized it, but he was right. Of course, he\u2019s one too. That\u2019s why we\u2019ve come to this.\u201d<\/p>\n

Mom laughed. \u201cYou\u2019re giving up too soon. You\u2019re an intelligent, good looking young woman. The young men in your life will have a hard time keeping up with you. That\u2019s probably what happened with Dwayne.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cSo what am I supposed to do, pretend I\u2019m something I\u2019m not?\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cGood heavens, no. But you can learn to be more subtle in getting your way. Maybe attending an academy will help with that. After all, a good officer gets his or her subordinates to want to perform their duties. You\u2019ve never seen your father at work, have you?\u201d<\/p>\n

I immediately thought about how he had handled my insubordination after Brian\u2019s death. He didn\u2019t manipulate me. He let me work out my anger and frustration, even letting me go too far. I smiled. I doubted he\u2019d let his subordinates go that far, but I could see him allowing them to make some pretty caustic statements \u2013 as long as they kept calm about it and said sir.<\/p>\n

I said, \u201cI have a pretty good idea of what you\u2019re talking about. He handled me despite my best efforts to hurt him.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cThat was self-discipline, definitely something you\u2019ll learn at an academy if you\u2019re going to graduate. \u2026 By the way, you did hurt him.\u201d<\/p>\n

I looked at her quizzically. \u201cHe never showed it. \u2026 Well, there was that one time at the funeral. But he handled it.\u201d I hadn\u2019t ever apologized. \u201cI guess I owe him an apology.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cI think he\u2019d appreciate that, but he probably won\u2019t say so.\u201d<\/p>\n

I peered at her for heartbeat. \u201cMom, how are you handling Brian\u2019s death?\u201d<\/p>\n

She frowned regretfully. \u201cIt still hurts, but there\u2019s nothing I can do to change what happened.\u201d Her eyes glistened.<\/p>\n

\u201cI guess I shouldn\u2019t have brought that up. Sorry. Let\u2019s talk about something different.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cSuch as?\u201d<\/p>\n

I had no idea. I needed to take a shower, but no way was I going to leave this conversation now, not after bringing tears to her eyes. We\u2019d been talking about boyfriends, academies, hurting dad \u2026 Back up, Mom had gone to college. \u201cWhere did you go to college?\u201d<\/p>\n

She looked surprised. \u201cNow that\u2019s different alright. University of Maryland, actually, Philip Merrill College of Journalism.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cYou were studying to be a reporter? Why didn\u2019t you become one?\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cI met your father.\u201d She smiled. \u201cOf course, it wasn\u2019t that simple. I got my degree. I even worked as a stringer for a couple of TV stations in Jacksonville while your father was stationed, if you can call it that, at Mayport. I\u2019m not sure which carrier he was assigned to, but of course, he was at sea most of the time. Then you kids came along.\u201d She stopped and shook her head.<\/p>\n

I suddenly saw where this was going, another reminder of Brian. Here I was trying to unload my problems on a sympathetic audience, and in the process I was rubbing salt in Mom\u2019s wounds. I hurriedly changed the subject. Standing, I said, \u201cWell, after talking to you, I feel better, but I need a shower. Then I have some things to take care of, like apologize to Dad, get to work on my applications, and let Renee and Dwayne know that I still want to be friends. Since Dad\u2019s not home, I\u2019m going to start on the applications.\u201d<\/p>\n

Mom stood and kissed me on the cheek. \u201cI\u2019m glad I could help.\u201d<\/p>\n

That evening I apologized to Dad. And over the next several days I scrambled to submit my applications for nomination and complete preliminary applications for both schools.<\/p>\n

I was disappointed to find that many of the nominations had already been filled, but Senator Warner\u2019s qualification process and the presidential one kept me busy. Then when both schools accepted me as a candidate, there were interviews, physicals, fitness tests, essays, you name it. With all that I never managed to get back together with Dwayne and Renee.<\/p>\n

If I had, I might still be in the Marine Corp.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
