It had been ten long months since your husband, Simon, left for the military base. Every day felt endless without him.

Now, standing among the crowd of families waiting for their loved ones, your eyes searched desperately.

And then—you saw him.

Tears streamed down your face as you clung to him, sobbing. “I missed you.”

His grip tightened, his voice thick with emotion. “I’m home, baby. I’m home.”
