The veteran explained that he was asked to give a college hearing tomorrow about his experience in war.
Both father and daughter nodded and asked the veteran if he had a few hours to spare. They had something important they wanted to show him. “What is it?” the veteran replied, but according to Emma, it was a surprise.
The veteran scanned Emma’s face again and saw a careful smile as she wiped away another tear. There was something trustworthy about her. After that, they drove away from the airport and past the hotel he was supposed to stay in.

The car stopped in front of the smallest house in the neighborhood. It was old but homely. Emma and her daughter had already gotten out and were opening the front door when the veteran exited the vehicle. But Emma simply invited him inside by extending her arm and gesturing the veteran to come closer.
The house had a 60s feel about it. Orange drapes hung before the windows, and a light, musky smell hung in the house. But the home’s interior was not why he was invited. The old man looked forward and saw how Emma and her father stood beside a large chair in the living room.
It was facing backward, but the veteran saw that someone was sitting inside of it. Emma ducked down and talked to the seated individual. It was an elderly man who was at least the same age as him.
