"I do now, angel." He kissed her forehead. "But I think that''s enough for now. Know where I''d really like to go? The sea." Suddenly, Kevin sat up. It was a sunny day today and it was alreadyte in the morning. It would take a bit to get ready, and get out there. People


    usually sleptter in the winter. They got a taste of how bears lived, and why they hibernated.


    "The sea? In the middle of winter?" Leena frowned. Why did he want to see the sea all of a sudden? But she didn''t say no. And when they finally stepped onto the deck of the warship, she was astonished by the breadth of the sky and the sea. This was all you could see as you looked off in the distance. The majesty was humbling. "Are you cold?" Kevin asked, tightening her coat. He was worried that she might feel cold because of the sea wind. He knew she got cold easier than he did.


    "No, I''m not. So is this the navy? What''s the difference between the navy and the army?" Leena wore a warm coat, so she did not feel cold at all. It was lined with faux fur, because she was an animal lover, but it was warm nheless. Fleece-lined, and very fashionable. "Simple. We fight onnd, they fight on the sea." The harmony of sea and sky made a beautiful picturesque view. The ship cut through the water, leaving white rapids in its wake. Waves rose wherever the warship passed.


    "Hey, Kevin! Got your sea legs yet?" A young major came and greeted them respectfully.


    "Hey, Morris, you old sea dog! How have you been?" Kevin looked at his friend''s flushed face and said in an admiring tone. He knew Morris was doing quite well.


    "You got the best deal! Cute wife, and you''re a major general now! Congrats!" Morris Cheng and Kevin were quite close once. They trained together as new recruits. But eventually the service decided Morris was better suited for the navy, and pulled him for special training. Kevin went into the army.


    "All it takes is a little hard work. Besides, you''re headed for family life too, I think. They told me you have a girl you''ve been dating for years. Now you just need to find a good time to propose and marry her." Kevin pped Morris Cheng''s shoulder in a brotherly way andforted him man-to-man.


    "Not me! We broke up a long time ago. Hard to find a gal who will marry a soldier, particrly one going at sea for months at a time." He bowed to Leena. "No offense, Mrs. Gu. You''re the exception. By the way, you look really familiar. Have we met?" Morris Cheng looked at Leena in confusion. It was a gut feeling. He knew he''d seen this woman before.


    "Don''t, please. We don''t run in the same circles," Kevin said hastily. He didn''t mean it like it sounded, but his jealousy got the best of him. Kevin smiled. He held Leena in his arms again possessively. Just like Edward, he was easily given over to jealousy when it came to his wife.


    "Hey! Now I remember! I saw you on TV a few days ago. It was just for a few minutes, but you really made an impression on me. I can''t forget a face like yours." Morris Cheng did a double-take. He started talking, but couldn''t remember why she was on TV. He was flipping channels and stopped when he saw her on the screen. Was she a movie star or something?


    "Thanks, Major Cheng. I don''t know what to say." And she didn''t, turning red again. This was the first time she met Kevin''s friend, so she was a little taken aback and shy.Text content ? N?velDrama.Org.


    "Please, just call me Morris." Morris was a generous, kind man. He was not stubborn like most soldiers, and wouldn''t stand on formality when it wasn''t needed. But he was big, and imposing. The man just looked dangerous, like a mighty general. He had a bright future in the navy.


    "Can I?" Leena looked at Kevin. She wasn''t sure about that, whether it was appropriate to use his first name. How did Kevin feel about that?


    "No worries. He doesn''t bite," Kevin joked. He continued, "He''s my best friend. We''re just like family. No need to be so polite." Kevin looked at her with loving eyes. He finally figured out his feelings for Leena and now he valued her so much. Every day he found something more to love about her.


    "Hey, you like fresh fish? We can catch things here and eat them if you like." Morris made a suggestion and seemed keen to make a feast. He was an expert on the sea and where the prime fishing spots were. He remembered the time they brought in a load of bass, and the chef made broth-steamed bass. He, of course, vored it with some ck bean sauce he''d smuggled into his cabin thest time they were in port.


    "Really? So we''re going fishing? And eating here, on the ship?" Leena was surprised and rubbed her hands in anticipation. She could barely contain her excitement. She''d only seen fishermen going out to sea in their boats on TV. But she never saw it up close and personal. This was going to be fun!


    "Yup! Come on, Kevin! Show us how it''s done," Morris urged. Morris was joking, of course. He''d been fishing for years, and had a knack for it by now. Thisnd lubber wasn''t going to best him, not by a long shot. But then again, he could get lucky. The sea was full of fish and other wildlife. Who knows? He might catch something.


    "Why not?" Kevinughed loudly. He was arrogant, especially in front of his beloved wife. Men were always proud and would seldom show weakness around their women. Not even Kevin was immune. He''d show Morris a thing or two.


    "Wait a sec. I''ll ask my men to bring some tackle," Morris Cheng said and went back to the cabin. A fishing show was on the way. The crew immediately went to work, bringing out rods, reels, bait, hooks, lines, sinkers, ands. "Here you are. Hold my coat. I got this." Kevin took off his coat and handed it to Leena. His voice was full of confidence and bravery. And more than a little bravado. He''d only fished a little.


    "Big talk, honey. You''ve never fished the whole time I''ve known you." Leena held his coat and looked at the man with soft eyes. He was her beloved man who excelled at everything. But he knew his limits, and she probably knew them better than he did.


    "Nice. Don''t think I can do it?" Kevinughed out proudly. He reached out and rubbed her small nose. He was definitely confident about himself, you could hear it in hisughter. He was having a grand time. Even if he didn''t win, he was making memories.[
