PROLOGUE “Aha, thank God there’s something else on, something that does not go ‘The war on Terror’ she said, snuggling up on her husband. They were slouched in the settee; right in front of the TV set. “Come on honey, that’s not fair” he replied, getting up and heading for the bar across the room. “News flash, life isn’t fair, I mean even we had our share of losses, who was it that said ‘the demise of those that have gone should not hinder the life of those that are’” she said relaxing into the vacuum that his departure had created. “Get a grip already life goes on” “Easier said than done” he replied, fixing them both a drink and heading back to the couch. “Besides, whoever said that said so before ‘September 11” On the screen they watched, live on CNN, the launching of a New Museum of Ancient History, the speaker was right in the middle of his speech. “Besides, I don’t think you would have felt the same if Jeffrey hadn’t called in sick that faithful day” he said handing her, her drink and, taking his place beside her. “Hey, isn’t that Dr. Peter Rushmore? I knew he looked familiar” she said, reclaiming her place in his arms. “Honey, I said it’s classified” was his quick interjection, as he sipped on his drink “Whatever did I say?” she said, feigning bewilderment, “It’s not what you said; it’s what you left unsaid” “Okay, okay, but, there should be a law against this classified stuff when your spouse is involved” she said in resignation. They retired into reverie; he knew very well, she hadn’t dropped it, and, was still wondering the nature of work that was so hush, hush, he could not discuss with her. Up till now they held nothing back from each other; he hoped this would soon be over, before it puts a definite strain on his marriage… Just then the doorbell intruded his thoughts, “I’ll get it” he said, getting up and heading for the door, “What will I ever do without you!” she said, not taking her eyes off the screen. Dr. Peter Rushmore had just concluded his speech and, was dismounting the podium when all of a sudden he vanished. “When did the museum start doing special effects on live TV? what is this? ‘Magic palace?” she said still glued to the screen. A pandemonium seemed to follow the disappearing act. Just then the bell chimed again, “Honey…? Honey?” she asked. Finally taking her attention from the tube and towards the door… past an empty room!
