#21/100


When I was a young girl, I wanted to get married to a person who wears a uniform.  I was always fascinated by cops and military serviceman.  I even gave some snacks to the military people if I spotted them on the street.  When I was in my early teens, I even wanted to be a pilot in the air force only because they looked cool.

I totally forgot about these somewhat childish wishes.  When I met my husband, I didn’t know he was in the air force.  Even after about a year since we started dating, I didn’t think about my faded dream.  Then, when I was visiting him in Japan, I saw him wearing this uniform for his weekly meeting for the first time.

My heart pounded and my old memories rushed back to me.  I was so excited.  I told him that my dream came true! Well, just for a quick moment anyway.  Now he became a civilian.  I don’t see him in any of his uniforms.  I demanded him not to throw them away, even though he wasn’t going to.
