Vogel stood awkwardly in front of the house, suddenly feeling a little at a loss.Everything around him was all too familiar to him—streets, facades, and those tall oak trees, everything seemed strange and familiar.Vogel subconsciously felt uneasy.His palms were slightly sweaty, and he stood in front of the familiar copper door almost blankly, his injured leg throbbing with dull pain.

Vogel took a deep breath, raised his hand, and knocked on the door lightly a few times.As soon as he finished typing, he felt a little regretful—Anna definitely didn't...

Vogel could clearly hear his sister's familiar brisk footsteps, like drums beating softly on his heart, giving off a resounding echo.He couldn't help but burst into tears!Really Anna, he thought, almost on the verge of tears.How I miss her!He sighed, his heartbeat accelerated uncontrollably.

The petite girl with blond hair opened the door like a wind, and when she saw Vogel's face, she let out a loud, almost broken sob, 'Brother--! 'She cried and threw herself into the arms of the shy young man, hugging him tightly,'Oh my God!Really brother--! '

Vogel shook because of Anna's movement, and his injured left leg visibly trembled.But he still hugged his little sister tightly.Sadness, joy, and all kinds of emotions overwhelmed him. Vogel, who hadn't cried for a long time, couldn't help crying on his sister, "Yes, Anna, I'm back," he said with a sob, " I'm back. '

Anna noticed his trembling before, she let go of Vogel nervously, "Your injury? ' she said hesitantly, 'seriously? '

Vogel touched her head with a long-lost smile on her face, "It's okay. He rarely said briskly, and wiped his face indiscriminately, "it's just that it will be inconvenient to walk in the future." He limped into the door with his arms around Anna's shoulders. Anna hurriedly helped him sit down, put all his belongings on the wall, and asked hurriedly, "Have you eaten yet?"We also have hash browns and stew, are you hungry?I just made applesauce the other day, would you like some? '

Vogel patted her with a smile, 'It's okay, let me see you,' he said proudly and sadly, 'Look, Anna is already so old, I don't even know you. He looked carefully at his sister's face: she looked more mature than before, with a small and straight nose, delicate and deep facial lines, like a delicate and beautiful ivory statue, "No one bullies you, right?" '

Anna smiled and shook her head, 'Who bullied me?Be happy, brother, you are finally back!Let me go make you something to eat first. Vogel nodded, silently watching his sister walk into the kitchen humming happily, feeling a little absent-minded.

What's wrong?All his hopes had come true, he was sitting at home, his sister had grown into a beautiful and kind girl just as he had hoped, and the sun was shining on him through the glass—even everything outside the window was exactly the same: The oak tree was still in the same position, and the opposite fruit stand still had a dilapidated awning, while Mrs. Miller was yawning while sitting on the rattan chair, while the old dog at her feet was lazily dozing off.

Vogel looked at his home—nothing had changed here, even his previous history textbooks were still in their original places, and there were still photos of him and Anna going to school together on the wall.Everything remained in place, as if nothing had happened. The wars, pain and death that Vogel experienced were like a false and silent drama, completely separated from the tranquility here.Time seems to have stopped here, and everyone remains the same, except for Vogel himself—dull, miserable, out of place.

Isn't this what you've been looking forward to?He asked himself, isn't this what you've always dreamed of?

Anna's voice wafted from the kitchen with the smell of stew, 'Brother!time to eat! '

Vogel responded with a raised voice, slowly stood up against the wall, and limped forward.Anna noticed his speed and quickly ran over to support him, 'This is still quite serious. ’ she said worriedly but relievedly, ‘but it would be great if you could come back! '

Vogel smiled at her, 'Who says no? ' he replied softly.

Just as Vogel sat down at the dinner table, Anna was opposite him and asked him about his life on the front line, how he was injured, whether he suffered a lot, and so on.Vogel knew she was worried, but how could he let his sister know about the crushing artillery fire and death on the front line.How could his simple sister understand those days on the front line?How to imagine all this? 'how could be? ’ He said with a smile, ‘The food supply at the front line is much better than here, and where is it not suffering?I don't find it particularly bitter.There is nothing wrong with this leg, who is not injured?It just looks a little more serious. '

Anna looked at him suspiciously, "What I heard is different from this. She said very shrewdly, "I heard that there are not only poison gas but also new flamethrowers on the front line. Mrs. Baker's son almost became a deserter."If it was as easy as you said, why would he be a deserter? '

Vogel glanced at her in surprise, "You know the new flamethrower?" He smiled and shook his head, "Don't listen to their nonsense, there are many reasons for desertion, how can you believe it?"You see, apart from my legs being a little uncomfortable, what else is wrong with me?Don't worry, I'm back. '

Anna gave him a suspicious look, and finally she could only curl her lips, "You don't know, brother, recently..."

Vogel smiled and listened to her nagging voice, feeling unprecedented peace in his heart.

everything will get better.He is sure.
