Prologue 02

June 20th, 2006

[Background Music: "The Ghost of You" by My Chemical Romance]

Shoulders slumping, he stepped into the foyer of his house and thought that he might have been better off going to the reception.

The hard soles of his dress shoes chimed softly on the metal stairs, echoing throughout the small house, as he climbed toward their…his bedroom. He took great pains to stare only at the steps knowing that if he looked up he would see her touch everywhere. Sam had taken great pride in redecorating the house these past several months—a nesting instinct she had explained when he had teased about her sudden interest in interior design.

But he couldn't ignore the light scent of lilacs that seemed to permeate the house. How long would it take for the scent of her favorite perfume to fade away?

He paused on the landing that led to the bathroom and threw his mourning suit into the hamper where he knew it would stay until he could work up the courage to face it, and all it stood for, again. His wig he tossed over the railing knowing—and not caring—that it would land in a tangle somewhere below.

    Hi, Tiana! Thank you so much! I won't say too much as I don't want to spoil things for you, but I can tell you that Samantha, Tahlvin's wife who died, was about eight months along. So she was almost full term. As for Tahlvin's bloody hand: he cut it when he punched the tree in anger.

    I hope you continue to enjoy reading. 🙂

    Fan service or not, that shower scene was fantastic. I enjoyed it a lot.

    There is such anguish and loss here, such emotion that is tangible and evident. I find myself being constant drawn into the character's minds, their stories and their experiences. Heartbreaking and superbly written.

    Awesome how those guys wear wigs.

  4. Beth says:

    Stunning…heartbreaking. The photo on the bedside table which shows her pregnant is so sad.

    I love the shots. Elegant, sensual, astonishing angles and clarity, and particularly adore the city shots. Fantastic!

  5. Gemma says:

    That was so saddening :'( I can't believe Sam was pregnant … That's just damned unfair. Gaah!!

    well, i'm one for the shower shots haha. i'm really loving Tahlvin and Hale are such unique creatures, wherever did you come up with such a great idea for characters? Btw, I love how you added sky/cloud details to almost every outdoor screen, it adds a lot of realism to your screens. great work. :up:

  10. Kara says:

    Thank you so much! haha Yeah, I'm a sucker for shower scenes. What can I say? 😉 Oh, and you can read about how I got my initial ideas for Worlds Apart on my "About" page.
