"I want to join the military." John said again.

"Why?" I was in disbelief. John wanted to just leave? We just got married six months ago!

"I want to help protect the country." He said.

"Well I want to become senator when I'm 30 but some dreams are just that, dreams."

"Well I want my dreams to come true. They did when I asked you to marry me, and again the day we got married." John said putting his elbows on his knees.

"I'll miss you."

"And I'll miss you. But I want to help fight for freedom."

"Okay."

"Is that a yes?" He asked expectantly.

"What?"

"I can join the military?" He asked.

"Yeah. But you better not go and get yourself killed." I said.

He stood up and I followed suit. "Yes!" He cheered. "Thank you!" He quickly kissed my cheek.

I just smiled back. He rushed off to our room.

"Love you!" He called before closing the door.

"Mhmm." I hummed quietly. I stood in the lounge in disbelief.

'What have I done?'
