[ WP ] Two soldiers knock on your door , one is holding a folded flag . But you do n't know anyone in the military ...

The doorbell rang. I tried to quickly put my shoes on but about 4 seconds later it rang again. 
 ‘ Somebody ’ s in a hurry ’ I muttered as I kicked the shoes to the other end of the living room and proceeded to open the door on my socks. 
 
 As I looked at the two soldiers and saw what they were carrying, I tried but stammered explaining why I welcomed two brave army-men on my socks. 
 
 ‘ Mr. Smith?' I opened my mouth but was interrupted. 
'It ’ s okay to feel sad. ’ The left one said and he put his hand on my left shoulder. 
 
 ‘ We ’ ll all miss him. He truly was a hero amongst the men. ’ 
 
 The right one, who looked as if he didn ’ t have any emotions the whole time, suddenly burst out in tears and tried to put his arms around his comrade. I could see him holding his tears back while he got his friend back up. 
 
 ‘ His tag and medals are yours now. Treat them as you would treat him. ’ 
 
 He had difficulty choosing his words and he handed me a small box after which he and his friend said their goodbyes. 
 
 Damn people, always misspelling my name.
