Life spins around - Part VI

July, 2020

"All of the worlds of the Imperium shall look to their own defense. They shall also look to the defense of the Imperium, and the prosecution of such wars as the Emperor in His wisdom shall decree.
Therefore, each populated planet shall raise and maintain its own planetary defense force, and from the ranks of this defense force it shall provide the best of its troops for recruitment into the Imperial Guard, according to such requirements as shall be imposed by the Administratum." she read to Nathaniel.

Returning to keep the book on the shelf "What do you feel like doing today?" she wondered, sighing.
The bunny took some steps and nuzzled against her nose. She giggled and replied "I love you too!"
She averted her gaze towards the open window, the curtains were billowing in the fresh breeze of summer.
"Another beautiful sunny day... And we're stuck inside home" she noted and started walking towards the window.
Laying on it, she watched the street where her beloved grew up.
Everything was peaceful, birds singing on the park in front of their house, people walking and chatting...

However on some bench at the other side of the park, there was a guy that didn't belong to that traditional environment. He seemed out of a big journey, with that grin in his face, as if he was laughing about the ones who didn't believe he was capable of his purpose.
Wearing an overcoat, a scarf and sun glasses on a day like that one, really looked kind of unframed.

Their gazes met and she knew troubles were coming, because somehow she recognize that face from her past...
Closing the curtains, turning around, leaning her back against the wall, sliding slowly down to the floor with one hand covering her mouth "Oh my..."
She stared at the bunny with his restless nose and one single tear slided down her eye throught her cheek and ending in her lips.
