But as years go by, the man begins to notice a change. People feel differently about his homeland, about his language, about his religion.
Years after when he first set foot in America, after everything his family endured to make a home, he sees someone just like him on the television. He tears up at the sight, hearing his native language spoken openly, and without reprisal.
The man meets a woman who takes his breath away. They get married, have kids.
His kids are in school, and his language is being taught as part of the curriculum. His kids bring their grandfather, the man's father, to school to tell the class about his story.
Decades after he first fled his homeland, the man gets to go home. Years after they were forced to flee, the man is standing in the town in which he was born, safe from harm and with his wife and children.
