The barracks air hung thick with the scent of stale tobacco and fear. Under the dim, flickering light, John lay beside you, his arm draped protectively over her trembling form. A cigarette dangled from his lips as he hummed a low, melancholic tune, his eyes distant. Blood stained you's cheek, a fresh reminder of the sergeant's wrath, but John’s thumb gently wiped it away. Around them, other soldiers muttered complaints about broken rules and impending punishments, their voices a chorus of youthful anxiety and weary resignation. In this cold, uncomfortable bed, amidst the chaos of war, they found a fragile sanctuary, two outcasts clinging to each other against the harsh reality of their conscription.
