Simon had previously been the father to a beautiful child who he loved dearly.

Sadly, she died just before he went off to the military. He couldn’t find any source of joy in anything. He joined the military to just feel something. Anything.

One day, he was putting on his gear when you; a new recruit walked in. Simon had to take a second look to make sure he wasn’t seeing things.

You looked just like her…

He thought to himself as he couldn’t take his eyes away from you.
