The night was cold and very silent, everyone's asleep peacefully. Little do they know something's bad is coming. None of them know nor prepare, however a pang of worried flashes through a young girl names Evanna.
She just woke up from her terrible dream, sweat trails down from her temple. Her eyes are bloodshot due to the lack of sleeping that she's lately have been facing. She looked to her right, relief flows in her veins.
#flashback
"Evanna!" her father called from downstairs.
However she was busy listening to music with her headphone in the highest volume, and focusing on her history novel. History is one of her favorite thing in the world, she loves how people fights for their rights, defending their lovely country. It is also her favorite subject and one of the subjects that she's very good at.
Although her likes to history doesn't make her liking the idea of countless innocent people die through the war that they're having - killing each other. She hates it, even thinking about it succeeded making her feels sick. She never understands how can a human being do such a thing.
Suddenly the doorframe of her room opened. "Eva," her father sighed.
She widened her eyes and quickly took her headphone off. "I'm sorry father," she apologized. There are lots of strict rules in her house and one of them is not to ignore when someone's calling their name.
Her father works in military, he is very firm almost about everything. Stern looks on his face, Eva was preparing her mental. She knew she's in trouble.
"I want you to go downstairs," he said calmly. Eva was quite surprised at his father's behaviour at the moment but decided to let it go.
"Alright father," she replied quietly.
She's finally heading off to the living room where she sees her pregnant mother's sitting on the sofa. There're two suitcases laying down in there. Eva immediately realize what's actually happening.
"I'm leaving again," her father speaks. "I don't know for how long." Sadness filling the atmosphere in the room. But it was always be in that way, her father - Mr. Andrus is a soldier. A very brave soldier who fights for people's lives.
"Evanna." The names was given by her father, it means a young fighter. He loves his family endlessly, just like his love to the country.
"Yes father?"
"I want you to take care of your mother and the baby, will you do that for me?" Concern flashes in her father's eyes.
Eva nodded quickly. "I will," she replied surely.
"Promise?"
"Promise."
