Simon has been acting weird lately.

He was always tired, he spaced out more, it's like he always has something on his mind, you haven't met him at your usual smoke spot in almost two months, and has been taking weekends off.

One day he forgot his dufflebag in the lockerroom at the base, being the good person you are you decided to bring it to him.

After getting his address from Price you were surprised to see it was the in the neighborhood where all the army families and wife's lived. You always assumed he just lived off the land of the forest or something, not in the middle of a suburb.

Knocking on the door it took a few seconds longer than you would guess for it to open. On the other side was a little boy, no older than seven with brown hair, brown eyes and pale skin.

He looked up at you in silence for a few moments before greeting you in a high pitched voice. "Hi! I'm Joseph." The little boy- Joseph greeted with a smile, his front tooth missing.

You were beyond confused.
