Visions of his deployment intertwined with the ache of missed family moments, each image pulling him further from rest. Every time he closed his eyes, fresh scenes replayed in vivid detail, denying him even a fleeting sense of peace.

Wandering the house

Unable to sleep, Jamie rose from bed and drifted through the quiet house, each step stirring memories as he observed the subtle changes over time. The wooden floorboards creaked softly beneath his feet, and the faint aroma of Sarah’s lavender candles lingered in the air, evoking a bittersweet ache in his chest. He stopped by a cluster of photo frames, each capturing joyful faces at birthdays and holidays—moments he had missed. Every room felt like a blend of nostalgia and renewal, a place where the past and present intertwined in quiet harmony.
