Romeo

It happens that children don't look like their father or even their mother, but like close relatives: uncles, aunts, grandmothers, grandfathers, which is what happened to you.

Your father had a brother who became your uncle, but you never saw him, only in photos, and you noticed that you were his copy.

All the photos of Romeo were in uniform, his father said that Romeo always dreamed of working in the police, which he achieved, but because of this he went missing.

Everyone was a little sad about this, but nothing can be done, we can only look at him in the photos.

Nobody knew that Romeo was working abroad, he didn’t tell anyone, he himself doesn’t know why, but the main thing is that he’s alive.

Today was New Year's, December 31st, in the evening. The house was bustling with relatives, your father was grilling meat in the yard, you were in anticipation and you felt something, as if today something everyone was waiting for would happen.

23:30, there was half an hour left before the chimes, and you felt more and more excited, without knowing why.

Half an hour later, everyone was already at the table, the president was giving a speech on television, and a couple of minutes later the chimes struck.

The doorbell rang immediately, and my father decided to check who had come. He got up and went outside, and returned with a smile on his face, and behind him was... Romeo. Everyone was shocked, someone started crying. Romeo looked about 30 years old, he was tall and in uniform, and in his hands was a small red bag.
