After an overemotional hug, we distanced ourselves again, though Danny continued to cry and cling to me.
"You are a disgrace to the military!" A stern-voiced older man suddenly appeared out of nowhere and pulled Danny away from me, while Omar and Jordan laughed.
The man with short gray hair and a tall, muscular build was also in a military uniform, though he had a bunch of badges on his chest.
"Staff Sergeant McAlister." He nodded at me, not letting go of the crying piece of misery he held onto.
I nodded and introduced myself before looking questioningly at my friends.
"Oh, these guys deserted for the second time in a few weeks, so I came to bring them back." The staff sergeant explained, and I chuckled.
"Besides, I wanted to speak with you, Mr. Devin." His eyes surprisingly found Henry as he let go of Danny.
The big table was closer to us, so for this or whatever other reason, the two big men decided to go to the children's table to sit down, starting to talk quietly.
