0355 - Melting Time

Description:

#Audio. #FlashFic A woman tries to her sleep while her partner is on a remote mission.

Excerpt:

And when the chatter goes silent, when the signal is too weak, too far away, or the remote team is dealing with situations too sensitive to be broadcast to unsecure receivers, she has nights like this, where sleep comes only in snatches and the face of the clock seems to mock her, melting into the darkness like wax from a flickering candle.
