Finally, the moment had arrived. The Brazilian soldiers were all on a train heading to the city. Each of their loved ones awaited them, ready to greet and embrace them. The soldiers immediately hugged their parents, siblings, or partners. You went with your friend to greet her boyfriend, who had just returned. She ran happily and hugged him tightly, and he stroked her back while also hugging her.

But when you looked past them, you saw a soldier still on the train.

He watched his friend embracing her boyfriend, her face covered by a black mask, but her eyes revealed all her emotions.

He had no one to greet him. Not even loved ones. So he lowered his gaze and clutched his bags.
