Don't move! " Smile, smile, smile naturally. Ready. Okay. With a click, the photo froze everyone in that moment forever!
Twenty years later, Tangleh stared blankly at the slightly yellowed colored photo in his hand. The past was like a cloud! Many brothers who had gone through fire and water with him were now gone. "They're dead, they're all dead!" Only I'm left in this world. Wu wu wu …
Gently putting down the photo in his hand, Tangleh covered his face with one hand and pressed his chest with the other, sobbing in a low voice.
A pair of delicate white hands gently pressed on Tangleh's shoulder. It turned out to be Tangleh's wife, Luna. She looked at her lover affectionately and gently comforted him.
Dear, it's very late now. Don't think so much. You should rest early. Don't think about those sad things. "You've been like this every day these days. I'm very worried about your health. It's not good for your body." Luna didn't know how long it had been before she heard her husband's hoarse voice.
Don't worry about me. Go and rest first. I can't fall asleep in this state. Can you just leave me alone for a while?
Luna immediately rejected Tangleh's request. No, I can't promise you. How many times has it been? I can't see you hurt yourself like this anymore. Listen to me, dear, can you forget these things? Forget these damn things, okay? You can't hurt yourself like this anymore. You're the father of two children now. Your body is not only yours, but also mine and the two children's.
You often cry because of sadness. If something happens to you because of it, what will happen to me and the two children? "Are you worthy of me? Are you worthy of your two adorable children?" I know what you're saying, but I … I can't forget those brothers who left me. They're all brothers who died with me on the battlefield! They worship me so much and trust me so much. But I can't bring any of them back from that damn war. I'm sorry for them and their families!
After saying this, Tangleh finally couldn't help but turn around and throw himself into Luna's arms. Looking at her lover crying in her arms, Luna stroked Tang Lei's hair with her hand and whispered to An Wei. (Don't scold me. I don't want to type wrong words. Don't hit me. If you want to hit me, hit my butt. Don't hit my handsome face.)
Dear, it's not your fault. It's this damn war and those who started it for their own interests. But … I can't forget them no matter what. Every time I calm down, I can't help but think of them. And recently, the symptoms have worsened in the past few months.
I'll dream of them when I sleep at night. I'll also dream of the Vietnamese Allied Forces who are pursuing me with guns. They'll charge at me with bayonets and I'll run and run. As I run, I'll shout for help, but there's no one around me. There's only the enemies who are pursuing me. When I'm exhausted, my comrades who I've fought with appear. I call for help, but when I take a closer look, I'm nearly scared to death. My comrades are all broken and bleeding. "They reached out to me for help, asking me to bring them home. Later, I woke up in fright! "
Luna, do you know how terrifying this dream was? I had this dream for two weeks in a row. I can't take it anymore. Help me … Help me, please? Upon hearing Tangleh's description, Luna's hands involuntarily hugged Tangleh tightly. Because hearing this description, Luna also felt an inexplicable fear.
By the way, dear, I remember there's still half a bottle of sedative pills in the medicine cabinet. I'll get it for you. How long has it been since you last took these pills? I'm guessing your PTSD is acting up. (PTSD is acting up again.)
"Just as Luna said that, I didn't expect Tangleh to roar at her like a mad lion." Why do you want me to take pills again? I hate taking those disgusting pills. I'm not sick. Let me finish. Can't you finish what I'm saying?
Tangleh stared angrily at Luna. His bloodshot eyes made Luna's heart jump. Alright, alright, dear, continue, continue. I won't interrupt you.
I'm sorry, I've failed them. I'm guilty. Kottis died. Her death was not worth it. After running for thousands of kilometers, she was crushed to death by a broken tree. Gary was killed by a landmine. Clark was killed by a large-caliber heavy machine gun bullet. Do you know how painful it was when he died? His blood was drained from his body bit by bit.
Tom and Rambo risked their lives to find me in the prison camp in order to save me. In the end, when they retreated, Tom was killed by a grenade. "
At this point, Tangleh was so emotional that he almost couldn't speak. Bruce died the worst. In that dark and damp tunnel, Bruce was smashed to pieces. His body couldn't even be found. How could I face his mother? How could I explain it to his mother?
Bici was the unluckiest. He was about to retreat back to his country, but on the last day, he was killed by a stray bullet. I, I …
As Tangleh spoke, his voice gradually faded. Luna felt strange and looked down. It turned out that Tangleh was tired and had unknowingly fallen asleep on Luna's chest. Poor child, dear. You're really like a big child, you know? Sleep, be good and sleep. No one will bully you here! Luna hugged Tangleh and sang a children's lullaby in a low voice.
The door behind them opened with a squeak, and two little heads popped out. It turned out to be Tangleh's two cute children. They were six and eight years old respectively. They were Tangleh's favorite little babies. They walked to their parents and saw their mother hugging their father, who was fast asleep. They didn't know what to do. What happened to Mommy and Daddy?
