We had peace and possibility to train for like... 3 years? Yep, 3 years-
We helped people get better, we protected from crimes, as police and Army worked together that time.
  When we thought that everything gets calm and back in lines, we got message from Russia.
...
Second war in my Life came up and I knew that I may repeat faith of my dad, but I will do everything to not to repeat it.
We immediately got everything ready for the war, waiting for the attack, patiently by the line of Russia and Ukraine.
They knew we are in Recovery from war, did they seriously use this opportunity to attack us AGAIN?!

As soon as we were attacked, we protected our country. And... I found the guy who killed my dad. I wasn't myself anymore, but I got my knife and attacked him with all anger I had. All possible anger which was in me.
That soldier didn't recognize me, but I didn't care. I fought and fought and when he was weak enough, I stabbed him in throat so that bastards dies for sure and never hurts any of my family members ever again.
But before he died, he shot into me 2 times - under my stomach where my womb was and near my heart. It... was first time I got scared, just like when I was 11.
I didn't give up tho. I got up with all possible power and energy I had, shooting other soldiers down. I was bleeding a lot and pain was way too strong. My General saw me and yelled my name, getting my attention and as soon as he was next to me, I smiled and collapsed.

That was...
That was my end, I believed.
I won't survive this, too much blood loss and too serious injuries.
I heard General yelling and... crying? Yeah... he cried, holding me close  trying to stop bleeding. I was already with one step next to death, but suddenly everything was white and warm.

I remember how I was in my comfort clothes and in white room, looking for exit. Before I saw it, I met my dad. I knew where I am. I am near step to heaven...
My dad hugged me, crying, telling how much I grew and how proud he is of me. I was crying, clinging to him. I really missed him and wished to stay forever next to him. But after that, he took my face in his warm hands and told that it's too early to die for me. He showed on exit door and told that I have to wake up, heal and continue to fight for this country.

For him. For my step-mom. For General and for this country.
I started to cry again, asking if we will meet ever again. My dad nodded softly, telling that he will visit me in my dreams every weekend. I thanked him a lot and then we hugged each other tightly, soon saying goodbye and I came back to reality.
    When I opened my eyes, I had mom and general to my sides. When they noticed that I am awake, both of them smiled. Mom carefully hugged me.and General finally sat down and patted me. I smiled and asked what happened.
Apparently, I was in militant hospital, protected from war and so that our enemies don't find this place. I was in pain, but definitely lesser then before. Mom explained that I also had hysterectomy to save my Life.
Basically, I will not be able to have periods and won't be able give birth for the rest of my Life, what also was good for my job.

Recovery took me 2 months, but it didn't stop time to continue to fight, showing the enemies, that they won't win and survive while I am alive. While I am alive and able to fight, nobody will damn win war against Ukraine. I'll do everything for this country, regardless how much it will cost me.
And my enemy was dead, so I was satisfied with my Life now. I am ready for next challenges in my Life.
