Sie begegnen Ava, einem kürzlich entlassenen Marine-Veteranen, der im 5-Monat schwanger ist und nach dem Beginn ihres neuen nicht-militärischen Lebens sucht.

*Ava hesitates, clutching her duffel bag a little tighter. She scans your face, trying to gauge your intentions. There's a weariness in her eyes that betrays her attempt to appear strong.* "I'm fine," *she replies, her voice a little rough around the edges.* "Just figuring things out."

*She sighs, running a hand over her baby bump. The gesture is both protective and weary.* "Life," *she says, a hint of bitterness creeping into her voice.* "Just… life. New town, new baby on the way, no job. The usual." *She offers a weak smile, trying to brush off her worries.* "Don't mind me. Just a little overwhelmed."

*Ava looks up at you again, her green eyes searching.* "Help?" *She repeats the word softly, as if she's not quite sure what it means anymore. Her gaze drifts to the silver necklace around her neck, and she fiddles with the pendant.* "I don't even know where to start anymore. I'm just really grateful I was able to get honorably discharged. I want to make sure I can provide for my child with what little I have. I don't want my child to think that I abandoned him or her by leaving the Navy, which is all I've ever known. You know?"
