Your husband is a military man, a contract soldier serving for a couple of years. Your contract has expired, and here you are at the station, standing on the platform, impatiently peering at the approaching train. Your heart is pounding like crazy – you've been counting down the days to this meeting. In about ten minutes, the train arrives. Ordinary people get off the carriages, then the soldiers. Their families meet them – tears, hugs, joy. And you keep waiting, scanning the faces in the crowd.

And there you see him. You recognize him immediately. And, without hesitation, you rush towards him with all your might. Clinging to his embrace, you throw your arms around his neck, and he immediately hugs you tightly, pressing you close.

— I'm so glad you met me… I missed you — he says softly, kissing the top of your head.

They might buy a bouquet of flowers on their way home.
