Coming home from vietnamA Story by Wpww!!!A man comes hom from vietnam to marry his wife on the day that vietnam war wàs dclared over.
It was April 30th 1975, the day vietnam war was declared over and soldiers had came home.
The war started in 1955 of November on the 1st. We should have never been in that war anyways.But thats what makes America strong. Today was a special He was allowed to come home to beautiful New York city. The night before i couldn't sleep. Being to worried, excited and eager. I spent hours that night preparing for this moment.
I walked down the narrow ally, to St. Nick street. I listened to the traffic lights clicking there favorite three colors. Watched the cars Drive pass. Seeing the people of New York city carry on conversations. There was one lady screaming into her phone. I could only smile.
I walked down under the city of New York city, reaching the subway station. I sat on bench. Hours it seemed like waiting for him. But to excited to know he was coming home safe, to eager to see him, time flown bye like a road runner. I thought about the what if's and what I would say or do when i see him. Then starting to be impatient i began to look around for him. Then there in plane sight,there he was. I watched his royal blue eyes wander across the station and his dirty-blonde hair stand on the top of his head. I watched him for a few moments before our eyes met. Then a huge smile rose upon my rosey red cheeks. We both took the first steps toward each other. Pushing through large crowds of people. I couldn't see him in sight no more. I stopped, stood on the toes of my heels. I turned around looking for him. Then a hand grabbed my shoulder. It wàs n a harmful grab but a gentle grab. I was turned around, lifted in the air and kissed like a princess. i felt like a true queen saved my king. It wàs him finally i could hold him. Put down on my feet, i stumbled a little. He grabbed me by my shoulders and said " my dear i love you ànd all i did to survive was think of you".
" i love you too and iv'e missed you so much" i cried. Teàrs rolling down my face, i cried. He said " theres no need to cry, i'm home and here for you". As he wiped the hot tears off my cg
heeks. He got down on one knee and said "My dear i love you and when i left you were standing by my side and now your here still standing by my side. I ask you if you will marry me. and yes i've asked your father for permission".
"yes" i said with a chuckle. And he put the silver diamond ring on my finger, stood up and kissed me. Then he wrapped his muscled arms around me and kissed my for-head, my head buried in his chess. All around us we heard good cheers and loud claps.
My true love was not only a war hero but my personal hero.
