Empathies And More
The whole unit expressed their condolences on the death of their young mate. Todd’s seniors were at his funeral and told Emma about his great work towards the whole department. Emma even received honors as the Bronze Star and Purple Heart on behalf of her late husband in several award ceremonies. There were no hopes left in her life other than Kiley and that’s when the miracle was about to happen.
Soldier At The Doorstep
A few days after the funeral and the award ceremonies when Emma was left at home with her daughter, she realized that nothing will ever be the same for her, from the wife of a military man she was now a widow. That’s when the doorbell rang again, it was a soldier who was holding a big box. It was Todd’s belongings inside the box which were in Afghanistan.
An Unforgettable Moment
When Emma opened the box, there were Todd’s documents, clothes, and his laptop. At this time she was missing him more and couldn’t take the immense pain. She still went on checking his stuff as she remembered all of those things being used by him in front of her. At last, she opened his laptop and saw the unbelievable.
From The Gone Man
When Emma opened Todd’s laptop she got the reason to live she was searching for everywhere. It was here, Todd was here, she felt him close to her in the very moment. It was like he was speaking to her once again but for the last time just to give her the closure she deserved in order to look ahead in her life.
Final Words
Todd was right in the war zone for more than a year where he saw death and crisis every day and he was prepared for it. That’s when he decided to express his love for his wife and his princess daughter. He said all that he has to say to them and Emma was not believing the fact how he saw the end coming for himself. Yet he never told Emma about it just to keep her smiling.
‘Dear Emma’
The first thing Todd mentioned made Emma cry like a baby, he wrote, “dear Emma, if you are reading this, I guess I did not make it home and therefore, I was not able to remind you again of how much I love you.” Todd shared with Emma how he got everything he wished for in the short span of time that he got to live with her.
