It'll Come Naturally

"Don't worry about me. I'll take care of myself," responded Leena as she patted the military uniform he was wearing with her palm.NôvelDrama.Org copyrighted © content.

"Okay, if you said so. I'll call you sometime. Wait for me." As soon as he finished speaking, Kevin grabbed Leena's face and gave her a deep kiss. It was passionate but it didn't last long enough. He immediately withdrew himself and then left as fast as he could just before he even changed his mind. Leena was left at the door as she watched him leave. He had not gone far yet but she was already missing him. Tears welled up in her eyes as she followed his figure.

He would be away for two months on this mission. Two months wasn't long but it seemed like it was for Leena. Therefore, she planned to use the two months to deal with her own work and keep herself busy.

One day, Leena went to Edward's house but none of them were home. Thus, she drove to visit Michelle's house instead, which wasn't that far from the Mu's residence.

"Leena, why are you here?" Michelle was so happy to see Leena. She had asked for a leave from school due to her pregnancy. She decided to stay home alone, which was actually boring.

"I was supposed to see Edward and Daisy but I heard that they were on vacation." Leena took a sip of the water that the maid handed her and thought, 'It's very rare that Daisy has time to go on vacation.'

"Yes. They went to the surrounding city for two days. I think they'll be back tomorrow night." Michelle answered and smiled. It was obvious how she had matured a lot since her pregnancy. She had turned gentler and nicer, just like how expecting mothers were.

"I see. I was just wondering why Daisy had the time to hang out." Leena thought that Daisy should be busier nowadays since Kevin wasn't around.

"Kevin's been gone for more than a week, right? Did he call you?" Truth be told, Michelle admired Leena a lot. She and Luke rarely had time to spend time with each other. However, their condition was much better than that of Leena and Kevin. Although Luke was often late, he made a point to come home to her every night. Michelle was more than satisfied with that.

"He hasn't called me yet. By the way, why didn't you join Daisy and Edward's vacation?" Leena leaned back on the sofa and asked comfortably.

"As you can see, I'm pregnant now and I really don't want to travel." Michelle touched her stomach with her hand. She had been taking care of her baby carefully. It was a joy that her pregnancy was going five months now.

"You are right. How about Luke? Did he go with them?" Leena looked around and hoped to see the guy.

"Yes. The whole family is on vacation, so they need Luke to take care of them." A sweet smile appeared on Michelle's face just by mentioning Luke's name. Although Luke was a cold and domineering man, he had made her the happiest woman alive.

"I can see that you guys are on good terms. What you suffered before has not been in vain," Leena joked. Honestly, she had hoped that all her friends could find their Miss Right or Mr. Right. However, the thought that all of them ended up with happy endings made her both happy and envious at the same time.

"Yes. I can finally be happy." Since Michelle was pregnant, Luke indulged all her whim. It was hard to imagine a cool guy like Luke would be so gentle and attentive to her, so Michelle had a great time every day.

Leena was a little depressed when she walked out of Michelle's house. She drove around the street for a long time. 'Why does everyone, except me, have their own mission?' she thought as she touched her stomach and sighed.

A few minutes later, she found herself sitting alone inside the Fragrance. She would just feel sad while eating if she would go home, thus, she chose to eat here instead.

Nevertheless, she didn't expect that she'd run into Brian while she was here. 'Isn't he abroad? When did he get back?' she asked herself confusedly.

"Brian, what are you doing here?" Leena asked happily. It looked like she was about to have company now.

"It's you, Leena. I just returned home yesterday. I heard my sister say that the vegetarian food here is good, so I want to try it. Are you alone?" Brian was still very handsome. His father was in a poor mental condition before, thus, he came back to run his father's company for a while. It was only after his dad recovered from the mental case that he left the city again. Honestly, this city was filled with sad memories for him, thus, he didn't want to stay here.

"Yes. And you? Are you alone?" Leena looked behind him.

"Yes. My sister said you owned the restaurant. Is it true?" Yakira might be a bad woman, nevertheless, she had a good son. Brian was not only handsome but also of a good character. This was definitely not inherited from Yakira.

"Yes. Let me buy you a dinner to welcome you home." Leena patted her chest with pride. She looked more like a tomboy than a rich lady.

"Lucky me." Brian said and didn't even turn her offer down.

"Let's go. I'll ask the cook to make something special for you." In fact, the two of them were not so familiar with each other. However, they felt comfortable after exchanging some few words. It seemed that they were both very extroverted people. "That would be great." Brian followed her in. It was the first time that he had been at the Fragrance, thus, he couldn't help looking around. He was pleased with the wonderful decorations of the place.

They had a delicious dinner. Brian shared some interesting stories to her about overseas. They both studied abroad, thus, they got along very well. However, good times were always so short. After saying goodbye to Brian, Leena began to feel lonely and bored again. Leena missed Kevin like crazy as soon as she stepped into their home. She wondered how good it would be if she had a child to accompany her whenever Kevin was away. God knew how tired and lonely she was and how much she yearned to have a baby.
