Salute To The General

Led by Amos, Nathan and the others soon arrived at a village not too far away from the city.

They were immediately reminded of the eighties because almost all the houses there looked old and somewhat dilapidated. On top of that, the alleys in the village were quite narrow.

When the group reached the fifth floor of an apartment, Amos took out his keys but hesitated to open the door. "My place is rented. It only has two bedrooms and a living room, so it's rather cramped. It's also a little messy since I'm not the most organized person. I hope you guys don't mind."

Nathan chuckled before responding,

"Nonsense! We're like brothers, and brothers aren't supposed to be picky over such trivial things. Now open that door and introduce us to your girlfriend."

"Now that you mentioned it, I just realized that none of us here are married except for General! Well, you've found yourself a girlfriend, Amos, you can bet that we're all green with envy!" chimed in Colin. Amos could not help but blush every time Colin and the others talked about his girlfriend, so they could tell just how happy the man was.

After entering the house, Nathan and the others realized that it was exactly like how Amos described it. Not only was it cramped and slightly messy, but the furniture was also old and cheap-looking. Amos called out for his girlfriend and even checked the rooms to find her but to no avail. "That's weird. Amelia doesn't seem to be home. Why don't you guys take a seat first? I'll go get you tea and prepare some food."

He was forced to retire after the incident made him a cripple. Aftertakinga sip of his tea, Nathan continued, "By the way, things were rather messy in the North Army when you were discharged. That's why I forgot to set you up with a decent job. But I do remember instructing Colin to give you preferential treatment in terms of veterans compensation and medical assistance for your disability. You should've received around two million, so why do you live so frugally?" Amos smiled bitterly before replying, "Because
