Welcome Back, Jessie!
With the blindfold over her eyes, Jessie was nervous and excited. Her younger sister, Jodie, held Jessie's arms and led her toward a corridor.
"How much longer, Jodie?" Jessie asked, trying her best to not take off the blindfold.
"We're almost there, Jessie," Jodie said, and they walked into a dark room.
"OK, you can take off the blindfold now," Jodie said, and switched on the lights.
A shout of "Surprise!" filled the room as the lights came on, and Jessie was astonished to see the room filled with her close friends and relatives.
Before she could respond, people walked up to her and began showering her with hugs and kisses. By the end, Jessie was in tears and an enormous smile was plastered on her face.
"To my dear daughter, who made us all so proud by serving in the army, and facing hardships day and night for a whole year to protect her nation!" Jessie's father said, raising a glass.
Jessie couldn't believe that everyone she loved and cared for was right there with her, and her heart filled with gratitude and pride as they toasted Jessie's contributions. This would become the most memorable day of her life.
