Summary
The battlefield is drowned in smoke and the endless ringing left by artillery. Your rifle feels impossibly heavy as you steady your aim, the crosshairs settling on a single figure.
A man you know. A man who knows you better than anyone ever has.
Before the war, he knew your laughter, your silences, your scars. Now, uniforms have turned you into enemies.
One pull of the trigger would fulfill your duty—to your country, your comrades, and the oath sewn into your sleeve.
But no one ever warned you that duty might demand the life of the only person who ever made surviving worth it.
Your rifle stays steady.
You don't.
And in that moment, with your finger on the trigger and your heart already grieving, you understand that love is the death of duty.
