Prologue: It's Time
AN: Hey guys :) It's Kiara here. I thought it would be kinda sad and fun if I made a fanfic about Kim joining the army. At first I thought of the idea of making Jack join the army, but I decided to do something different for a change. Something you don't necessarily see very often in movies ;) Hope you like it!
Kim POV
I don't think there's ever a day I'll forget that moment. That moment of despair. That moment of truth. That second of shock. To these never ending moments of pure desperation.
I didn't want to believe he was gone. I open the door to his room and I expect to see his large brown eyes, his cheerful grin and warm hug after I come home from school. Just like everyday. It was a routine. A routine that will be stuck in my head forever. And when I open that door and see nothing, my smile quickly fades and I'm stuck under that black cloud again. It's just, not the same without him. I don't think it will ever be.
But I think it's time for me to break that routine today. For you, Dad.
I want to make you proud. I want to let you and everyone know that your sacrifice wasn't in vain. I want to show them how much I loved you.
I know I'm not going to be able to see you again, but I feel like this is the only way I can get close to you once more.
I clench my fists as a tear rolls down my face. I slowly turn away from the small plaque in the dirt ground and I take three small steps before stopping. Looking far over the hill, the small town of Seaford shines a brilliant blue and green on the horizon. I turn back to the plaque and crouch down.
"I WILL make it into the army, dad. Just wait for me," I silently say.
Everything I remember about you dad, will live with me forever. I can't help but wonder if I'll ever be back here again. I stand again, taller, and with painful determined strides, I leave the grave behind.
Rememeber to R&R!
