The soldier, burdened by the weight of family legacy, sought not only to serve his country but to win his father's approval. After five years of service, he was exploring a new sector to clear his head. His gaze halted on a nurse with brown eyes, whose beauty and gentle manner left him captivated, stirring in him an irrational wish to be hurt just to receive her care.

Flustered, he stammered an apology, but she, in silence, simply took his hand and guided him toward a medical cot to mend him.
