-Please don't go. - She whispered in his ear. -I have to do this. - He fought his heart to say that. -Why? -My country needs me. -And I need you. - The woman almost cried. -Please, we had this conversation before and you know what I'll say. She froze and tried to think of a new argument. -I tought the family came before anything. -But of course, darling. - He held her gently by the chin and raised her beautiful face that was starting to get wet with tears. -How can you think like that? -I told you, my dear. If I fight for my country, I'll protect my family too. -But I need more of this soldier on my side than in a war, understand? I want to wake up knowing that you are alive. And knowing that makes me happy. -Do you really think tha I would like to see all my friends dying and doing nothing to help them? -Please. - she caressed his face softly. -Sorry. - the soldier whispered back. He pulled her close and kissed her slowly. Then they stayed together in the last night before the soldier go to defend everyone.When the lady woke up, he wasn't there anymore. She cried for so long but life always have to continue. When she was making the bed, a photo called her attention. She took it and saw that was a picture of both. She was hugging the soldier while he was kissing her forehead. A smile started to grow in her face and a tear came down again. The man stayed in war for three years between 1943 and 1945. When the war was over, he turned back to his house and called for his lady. But no one answered. The soldier got into home and saw everything destroyed. The new TV was in pieces, photographs all around the ground, glasses everywhere. He run to the room and found only the engagement ring from his adorable lady and a old notebook. With a lot of experience in war, the soldier knew that was a signal. In really, a bad signal.He took the notebook to read. A beautiful calligraphy was there telling that she was gone, forever. And he tried so much, thinking everyday about back home and find his family again. The man felt his heart burning by the poison that angry can cause. The saddest thing? He had promissed her, had promissed that would be doing everything to save them. Maybe you're asking what happened with the woman. Well, it was happening an attack from enemies and she decided to write about it in an old notebook. When they caught the lady, she took away her ring and threw it at the room to her soldier see what really happened with her and that she would never come back to see him. Hope you enjoy it ^.^ And I'm sorry if I did something wrong...
