"Just tell me. Don''t keep me guessing," Tom said, smiling. He shook his head helplessly at his little sister, feeling amused. He was dressed in his all-white uniform, looking handsome and gentle as ever. His smile was enticing, making everyone around him return it.


    "Well..." Leena hesitated, "Kevin is going for a field training next month. I heard that this training is especially hard. I''m not sure if he can handle it, considering he has just recovered from his injuries. I am a little worried. I want to hear your thoughts about it." Leena gently bit down on her lower lip. Her worried eyes were fixed on Tom. She wanted to know exactly what he thought about letting Kevin go for the training. She didn''t want Kevin to injure himself again. She was there for his professional advice.


    "Since when have you started being so formal with me?" Tom sighed, "Ask him toe here for a check-up. I will run some tests on him and see if he has recoveredpletely. But I don''t think there will be any issues. It has already been more than half a year since Kevin''s ident. Considering his current health condition, there shouldn''t be any problems. I''m sure he can handle a little hard training. But I''ll run some tests anyway to make sure. Better safe than sorry." He smiled reassuringly.


    "Okay, I will ask him to drop by whenever he is free. Kevin has been very busytely. He hardly has any time to eat and sleep. It would be hard for him to squeeze in some decent time for a check-up," Leena frowned.


    "Let hime when he has some spare time. Just give me a call before hees, okay?" he said, as he nced at Patricia''s belly. He had been prepared to be a ve for h


    ely take them for a couple. Patricia had to admit, she was a bit jealous.


    "What were you thinking about? You seemed really focused on your thoughts," Leena teased her as they walked down the hospital corridor together. But Patricia was going through someplicated emotions regarding the rtionship between Leena and Tom. She knew that they cared deeply for each other and that mutual feeling waspletely tonic, but she still couldn''t shake off her doubts. What if there was a glimmer of a chance that they might be holding some subtle feelings for each other?


    "I''m afraid that you will bothugh at me if I tell you." Tom gently held her hand as they walked and the small gesture warmed her heart.


    "Why is that? Patricia, were you thinking about some other handsome guy?" Leena teased her again, winking at Patricia with a meaningful smile. Leena knew that Patricia had always been fond of pretty boys. But she was just pulling her leg. Leena knew how much Patricia loved Tom. But she was very curious as to what she was thinking about, especially after Patricia had said that they mightugh at her.
