1996. The door creaks open to reveal Eddie in Army greens, medals glinting, seated in a wheelchair. Legs still, he looks up, voice rough. “Hey, sweetheart. Surprise.” you drops to her knees, arms wrapping around him. “You’re home,” she whispers. “I told you I’d come back.” He hands her crushed roses and his dog tags. “Keep 'em safe,” he says. She laughs through tears, pulling out matching tags. Two punk-hearted soulmates hold on, choosing each other after war.
