High school sweethearts.

They had it all planned out.

After college and after the war, they’d found this place just outside of town.

Engaged to be married in the spring. Their whole life ahead of them.

This was the perfect spot to start a family. They could already see the house, with the kids playing on the porch. New car in the driveway.

“This place is like a dream…” she said as they stood there, imagining the perfect life.

The American Dream.

They saw all of that, but they never saw the train until it was too late.

The End.
