Winked At Her

The winds were as fast as 140knots and waves as high as 50 feet. It was a Category 4 hurricane. Richard took over the wheel. Tami went down by the stairs, turned to close the door and that’s when they looked at each other for the last time. Amidst all the stress, Richard winked at her and she smiled and closed the door. It was 1 pm and the barometer was showing below 28-inch mark. Tami heard the most terrifying sound of her life at this moment.
