A Little Bit Longer

She stared out the window of the bus, her hands clutched to her lap. She was going to do it. She was being who wants to be. She was being the person who her mom would have despised and her father proud of... if he had been alive.

Her heart squeezed painfully in her chest as nervous butterflies danced around in her stomach. Out of habit, she reached up to her chest and grabbed the dog collar pendent lying softy on her chest, and caressed the "TS" carved into it. Looking down at it, she smiled softly and kissed the metal.

"I miss you, Dad. I hope you'll be proud," she whispers as a lone of tear runs down her cheek.

Suddenly, the bus stopped and rest of her trainees leapt up to their feet stumbling around to collect their luggage.

Her heart jumped to her throat. She was here now. There was no going back. This is where she belonged. This was where her father had once belonged.

Climbing down the steps of the bus, she looked around her surrounding and let out the breath she didn't know she was holding.

This was it. This was the start of her journey. The journey to becoming a soldier. To becoming a hero... like her father once had been.

She just had to wait...

Just wait... A Little Bit Longer.

He was being stupid. What was he thinking? This was impulsive. He was not an impulsive guy.

Oh, who was he kidding? After she had left him heartbroken and stranded he took all his decisions rashly.

Looking around the camp he remembered her smile, as his feet kicked at the gravel sand. He remembered her bright doe eyes. He remembered her words, "I want to be in the army, you know?" When he had asked why she wanted to such a risky job all she had said was, "My dad was in the army. He was a hero," No other explanation was needed. She wanted to be in the army to make her deceased father happy. It was simple as that.

But the question was, what the hell was he doing here?

Was he hoping that he will finally find her? Was he hoping he will get his answers, as to why she left him?

He should let go. He knew he should. And he will. He will move on... someday.

He just had to wait.

Just wait... A Little Bit Longer.

Hi, Shanaya and Andy here. So, this is kind of new for us you know? We've never written a collab fanfiction, before, ever with anyone. So, this is kind of scary and also very exciting.

So, um, this is a TaaRey story which will be based on the army training and stuff. Also, just so you know, there will be flashbacks as there is past between TaaRey which you will get to see in the future updates.

We know, that the prologue is very vague, but that was exactly how we wanted it to be. For the suspense that will come your way it is important you see? We are so evil and we love it. 😈 😆

The concept of the story is by Andy and, Andy and me (Shanaya), we'll be just writing it together. I would like to thank Andy for telling me this idea and letting me work with her on this particular fanfiction. 😃

This will quite different from anything we've possibly written, as it wouldn't be as glamorous as what we (mostly I) write. But even though, we hope you, our readers support and love us and this story.

I guess, that is it then. Thank you all for the livelihood and love. We love you, and we hope you will keep supporting us like this, always.

Thanks,

Shanaya and Andy. ❤️
