And he continues and he says, "I want you to know that I've always loved you and I will always love you and I just want to tell you." And then there's a loud explosion and there's nothing. Meanwhile, the wife back home, she is, you know, running around. She sees the husband calling. She says, "I'm not interested in right now." Difficult. She hangs up the phone. She puts out the, you know, decline to call. And a few hours go by and all of a sudden she sees a convoy of the, you know, the the army comes up to her to her, you know, to her house. And the second that anybody who has been in the army sees a convoy knows exactly what this means. And see, she starts shaking and she starts, you know, like falling, you know, down.

There's one message that's playing over there and she goes and she listens to the message and the message is what I just told you. How much he cares about her, how much he loves her, how much he wants her just to have so much braha and so much success and he feels so sorry about everything that you know that he has done and then there's a massive explosion and then you hear the line the line go dead. She listens to the message 10 times, 100 times, a thousand times. She doesn't stop listening to this message. And ex, you know, when you when you take a step back, what happened that now the husband decided to open up cuz the truth of the matter is is that deep down this husband wanted to say this thing to his wife the whole time, but there's so many things that come in and we're busy and we have so many things and we want to tell our children that we love them and we want to tell our spouses that we love them and we want to tell we want to do the right thing, but we're so busy. But all of a sudden when everything quiets down when this guy was sitting with a bullet wound on his and his stomach and he was bleeding out everything was quiet down then the truth of the matter came out and then the real MS what he always wanted to tell his wife what he really felt about her and how he really this is what it was always inside.
