Prompt from sunhawk16: second chance.
Second Chance
I'm very grateful for the second chance that I have at life.
After the war, I walked off from everything that I knew.
I didn't have a clue what to do, because I never thought that I would survive. Without any purpose in my life, I was drifting here and there, never staying in the same place for more than a few days.
I tried to look for jobs, but no one was willing to hire an unstable ex-soldier, and I really didn't want to have any job that had any thing to do with military, so I flat out refused the Preventer job offer.
I was depressed, and became suicidal. It felt like nothing mattered any more. A couple of tries after, I finally landed myself in the hospital.
From what I heard, my heart had stopped two times. It was a miracle that I'm here today.
But that near-death experience made me realize that there are people in the world that worry about me. It made me acknowledge the fact that I'm not alone, and I never was.
More importantly, the incident had not only made me learn how to accept love from someone, it also taught me how to love someone in return.
It gave me a new purpose in life.
