James said, “It’s no trouble. You’re doing this for Captain after all.”Chana smiled and left, and James followed shortly after. However, Chana kept James’s words in mind, curious about the woman Nash was supposedly so attentive to. She didn’t leave immediately but instead asked a soldier, “When will we leave this village?””I’m not sure about that,” the soldier replied.Chana tried another approach, “The woman who’s been in close contact with Captain, is she from this village?”The soldier thought for a moment, “No, I think she’s from our country.”Hearing this, Chana’s heart sank. That woman was from their country. No wonder they were all talking about it.”Thanks,” she said with a smile and returned to her tent.Her son woke up as she arrived. “Mom, where did you go?” The boy, speaking their native language, clung to her, looking anxious. She hugged him tightly.”I went to see Captain,” Chana said, stroking his soft hair.”The handsome uncle?” the boy asked.”Yes,” Chana said, sitting down and handing him a cup of milk. “That handsome uncle was worried you wouldn’t have any milk, so he got a cow just for you.” The boy, eager, gulped down the milk.”Mom, it’s delicious.” To him, milk was the best treat, and he contentedly licked his lips.Chana wiped his mouth gently. “Do you like the handsome uncle?” she asked.

She woke up early, stepping outside to breathe the fresh air. Despite the village’s backwardness, the air was crisp, and the dew was sparkling. “Miss Nina!” someone called out.She turned to see the soldier from yesterday running toward her. “The boy who was with you is missing!””What?” Nina felt a pang of worry. “Is he in trouble?””No, it seems he left on his own,” the soldier replied, handing her a letter.Nina opened it to find Carl’s messy handwriting. The letter read, “Nina, I’m leaving. You said some things that made me realize I need to strive for our country’s revival. Personal grudges are insignificant compared to the nation. I won’t be staying with you. I hope we meet again someday. Thank you for everything.”Nina felt a pang of sadness as she read the letter, her eyes welling up with tears. Perhaps her empathetic nature made it harder for her to accept farewells. Receiving a letter like this made the parting even more touching.Despite the melancholy, she felt a deep sense of pride and contentment. Carl had found his purpose, and that was something to celebrate.Life was about having a mission, a reason to keep moving forward. Knowing that he had discovered this made the parting a little easier. Wherever he went, whatever he faced, she knew he would live a life filled with purpose and passion.”Miss Nina, should we go look for him?” the soldier asked.Nina shook her head, smiling through her tears. “No, let him go.”
