My first published short story.

I thought about/made up a funny story: 

Many years ago, a man left his wife to join the army and not before long he was shipped off to somewhere far, joining the frontline of a modern warfare.

They lost contact, a common tragedy during a war time.

When the war ended, the man was honourably discharged from the army.He took a plane, a ship, a train, a bus and a cab to get back to his hometown.

When he got back home, his wife was gone. Then he asked around the neighbours, hoping to find his wife.

2 days later, he stood on his wife's property, which is a stranger to him. He rang the bell.

The door opened, Kate showed up, she was shocked, then she slapped him.

Dialogue:

Kate: "I thought you were dead!!! how could you!?"
Josh: "The war set our bodies apart, but not our love. I still love you very very much."

Kate: "I haven't heard from you for years!!! Do you know my heart was broken?"
Josh: "I'm sorry, I couldn't sent you any mail..."

Another slapped.

Kate: "You COULDN'T fucking called??? Or you don't remember your own's home number????!!"
