“Bring me coffee, woman!” the young lieutenant yelled, staring at the new recruit. “Your job is to serve us!”

Everyone froze.
The young woman, who had arrived only the day before, calmly folded her arms and replied:

“I’m a soldier, just like you. I’m here to defend my country, not to make coffee.”

“How dare you talk back to a superior?!” he roared, stepping closer.

Dozens of eyes turned toward them. No one intervened — everyone wanted to see how this bold defiance would end. But she wasn’t afraid. She stood still, calm and firm, with a steady gaze and not a trace of fear.
