He smiled at the little girl who handed him her teddy as He went off to the war zone. He had never imagined his life at 18 to be this way headed off to a place where He may or may not return. It was a very tough decision to take, but his love for his country knew no bounds, so he enlisted himself as a soldier. As He signed off to head out, She walked into his life. He knew almost instantly that She was the one for him. He had proposed marriage to her, but She was hesitant. He understood, and told her He would wait until She was ready. His tour ended and He headed into his neighborhood where He saw her in the market. He smiled at her and She lit up. He handed the teddy to his little girl and told her, “I got this from a sweet little girl just like you, which brought me to you, so a little gift from me to my baby girl.” Hearing this all She smiled… ____________________________________________________________________________________________________ She had grown up in an army family, She always thought She would marry outside the service. She was casually strolling through the market and found herself at a bangle store. She was admiring a pair of blue bangles when She heard a crash behind her. A street fruit hawker bumped into a bike accidentally. She went and helped the hawker up. The guy on the bike started arguing with him pushing him around. He pushed his way through the crowd as that guy was about to hit her, He caught his hand. He calmly told her to step aside as He diffused the situation in minutes. On her birthday, He was unable to stay in town as He got recalled to his post. On her bed, lay a small box, She opened it and inside lay the blue bangles She saw at the market that day. A card inside said, “A lovely pair for a lovely lady. Happy Birthday from your Soldier hubby” __________________________________________________________________________________________ He was a Soldier with expert sniper skills, so He saw things from a distance quite clearly. She lived life from day to day. They were poles apart, so when his alliance was brought to her, She knew instantly it would not work. She rejected the idea of meeting him as well as marrying him. He had other plans, He respected her wishes but He at least wanted a chance to be friends with her. He friended her by writing a letter to her, She was surprised with the gesture. They began corresponding frequently, She was a bit hesitant but She found him interesting, sensitive and overall a real gentleman. One day, He received a care package from her, it contained so many amazing things, He was over the moon. He knew exactly in that moment that He had to make her his forever…. ___________________________________________________________________________________________
