A Red Balloon - Happy Birthday Sophia, Love Dad.
Turned into a ritual ever since Sophia was five. Even when Jeremy was at war for three years, he never missed to send Sophia the red balloon.
******
Sophia turns eighteen today. Jeremy, with staggering gait, reach the cemetery with a flower bouquet and a red balloon.
Oh! Unexpected tragic twist.
