about her heartache of the past year and how events had led her back to the place where she had married the only man she believed she could ever love. she told him of things that had been locked deep inside her, able to tell no one. she told him how she had felt after she had lost her baby.she was six months pregnant and the happiest she had ever been when the pains had started. she was staying with her mother as james was working out of town. he hadn`t made it back in time. the doctor had said it was just one of those things, that they could try again. but how could she when she couldn`t even look james in the eye. she hated him then, for not being there, for not hurting as much as her but most of all for looking so much like the tiny baby boy that she held for just three hours before the took him away. all through the following months she had withdrawn from her husband, family, friends. not wanting to recover form the pain she felt - that would have been a betrayal of her son. at the funeral she had refused to stand next to her husband and the next day she had left him.

　　looking up, lisa could see her pain reflected in the man`s eyes. for the first time in months she didn`t feel alone, she felt the unbearable burden begin to lift from her, only a bit but it was a start. she began to believe that maybe she had a future after all and maybe it could be with this man, with his kind hazel eyes, wet with their shared tears.

　　they had come here to dissolve their marriage but maybe there was hope. lisa stood up and took james by the hand and led him away from the bar towards the beech where they had made their vows to each other three years ago. tomorrow she would cancel the divorce; tonight they would work on renewing their promises.
