as you were walking the streets of your home town, you were looking at how beautiful it was. the little details, and the big ones. as you kept walking, you came across a paper

"who would litter like thi-"

as you looked down at the paper, you notice it had a army sign up on it. you had to call the number, fill out some paper, and then you could join. the more you thought about it, you crumbled up the paper and put it in the pocket of your hoodie. as you turn back to walk home, you kept thinking about the paper. it was relatively close to your home town, and it would be fun.

in a way...

as you were caught up in your thoughts, you didnt notice that you made it home already. as you walked into the door and took your shoes off, your mom welcomed you in while she was in the kitchen making diner.

"how was your walk?"

"pretty good."
you told her.

"that's great! do you mind setting the table for me darling while i finish up diner?"

"of course."

you got to work after washing your hands.

-dinner because yeah-

as you and your family were sitting at diner, you couldnt eat. you kept thinking about the paper. your mom looked at you.

"whats wrong? why are you not eating?"

you looked up being a little scared. you didnt know if you should tell her or not.
as you panic in your thoughts, you just spit it out

"i found this paper on the sidewalk  and..."

you handed your mom the paper to your mom. your dad looked over your moms shoulder. before you could even react, your mom started smiling and your dad just sat back down with no reaction.

"is there something wrong?"

you mom squealed and got up and hugged you. you were very confused. you dad leaned back in his chair and said

"we always went into the army.
all through out the family bloodline. but, never had a girl done it. but, i was in the army, my father, HIS father, and so on."

you realized how important this was to the family. once your mom was done hugging you, she got up to call all of your relatives to tell them about the good news. you dad grabbed the paper and looked through it.

"2 days. you have 2 days to get packed and go. it looks like the camp is close to. only about,,,8 hour drive."

you looked at your dad like he was crazy. he looked back at you and said

"do you want to?"

you said yes.

when your mom was done calling all of the family members and telling them the news, she told you to finish dinner and to start packing when you were done.
as you went up to your room, you thought about what you  were getting yourself into. you blindly look at all your clothing and pick out your favorite ones. you threw in some pictures of your family into the bag. for the rest of the night, you sat on your phone going through it. you told your friends and they started asking a lot of questions
