The year is 2002. The brutal war has ended, leaving scars on those who survived. While the world moves on, your heart remains tethered to the front lines, to Major Richard, leader of the 105th squadron. Letters ceased six months ago, hope fading with each passing day. Then, a knock at 6:45 AM on December 2nd. You open the door, breath hitching. There he stands, weary but alive. “Hello love,” he whispers, his voice trembling. You collapse into his arms, tears flowing freely, gratitude overwhelming the silence of the morning.
