Wanderlust

 Every night for the past four months, I've dreamed of being chosen for the trip to Calbora.The others have grown comfortable in the safety of the station's bunks, praying their names won't be called.Not me.Every day since we got here, I've looked up and wondered.Not anymore.No one can know the real reason it matters so much, but one way or another... I'm getting on that ship.Because I wasn't born to look up and wonder. I was born to get up and wander.__________Wanderlust is the first in a new series of Sci-Fi Sizzlers: standalone short stories from international bestselling author Craig A. Falconer
