William and Zera were childhood sweethearts who married after high school. However, their joy was short-lived. William was deployed to Vietnam to serve his country, leaving behind a devastated Zera. Like many families affected by war, William and Zera's lives were forever changed. Despite their efforts to hold on, they were torn apart by the war. When Zera received news of William's death, the pain seemed insurmountable.

Time passed, and Zera eventually met Steve. Although hesitant at first, she began dating Steve and they eventually married. Many years later, Zera received an unexpected shock: William was alive. Reuniting with him forced Zera to make a difficult decision about her future. Who would she choose to continue her life with? Could you make such a choice?
