Bab 1041: Chapter 1040: Kevin's Heart Dance (part one)
No, she's never mentioned it. Duke, do you have the address?" Kevin asked cautiously, fearing that Duke might find out the real reason why he was asking.
"I'm looking for it right now. Okay, how about this? I'll send you the address later. And remember to ask Leena to call me back." Duke hung up the phone. He saw no reason to say anything else. He made the call to ask about Leena. But she wasn't with Kevin, and he didn't really want to talk to the Major General. He hadn't recovered from the sad truth that Kevin married his sister without asking his permission first.
Kevin bit his lip and put down his cellphone. He now pinned all his hopes on Duke giving him the address. He just had the strongest hunch that Leena would be there. She had to be -- it was about the only place he hadn't looked.
Waiting was pure torture. When the phone beeped, Kevin hurriedly read the message and immediately asked Lee to change the route. He really hoped that Leena had gone to that place to rest and recharge like he had guessed.
After Kevin reached the place, he didn't get an easy pass like Leena did. Because he came here without any notice, the house keeper was very strict. She didn't let him in until he explained his relationship with Leena to her. Helpless as he was, he was glad that one thing was certain, that Leena was really in the house, just like he thought. At least she was being looked after.
When Kevin finally found Leena in the bedroom, she was sound asleep. She might have been too sleepy, or gotten too tired after crying. He could see the trace of tears on her beautiful face. Her eyelashes were still wet. So she hadn't been asleep that long. He looked around the room, and the aroma of liquor filled the air. Looking up, he saw an empty wine bottle lying on the table. Obviously she drank a lot, and needed no glass to help her down the stuff.
He reached out his hand and touched her cheek, a lump forming in his throat. He felt sad to see her like this. His fingers swept over her face very gently, his eyes full of affection. He was moved by her. He felt grateful that she didn't do anything to hurt herself, but waited here for him to come.
Gazing deeply at her, Kevin suddenly realized that he had never looked at her so closely and so attentively. Previously, he only had the impression that she looked good. But with close examination, he suddenly found that she had an attractive oval face. She appeared like a classic beauty, but had a fashionable air. He was stunned by her gorgeous sleeping face. He'd never felt this way before.
Her skin was quite healthy, but looked a little pale. But that did not harm the youthful look she had, especially when she was sleeping peacefully. Her beautiful face had Kevin spellbound. At the same time, he felt a surge of pity and had the urge to protect her. Kevin's heart danced in his chest at the sight of Leena's stunning beauty. He couldn't help but bow his head and plant a gentle kiss on her pink lips. The aroma of the liquor in the air aroused him suddenly. But he collected himself and immediately left her lips. Because he knew if he didn't, he would lose all self-control.
"No! I won't...apologize! I.. didn't do anything wrong!" Even in her dreams, Leena didn't forget to defend herself. Kevin could see how wronged she felt.
"Yes! You don't need to apologize. You did nothing wrong." Kevin grasped her flailing arms. He knew she was talking in her sleep. He wondered whether he was also in her dream. But this was not likely. After all he was the one who made her suffer and hurt her. How could he expect to be in her dreams? She probably hated him.
"Kevin..." Leena mumbled. If she hadn't called out to him with her eyes closed, Kevin would have thought that she was awake. Because she spat out his name so clearly, not something that sounded unintelligible. He examined her closely, only to find that she was calling the Kevin in her dreams, not the Kevin right in front of her now. But this also reassured him that she had dreamed about him. He wondered what he did in her dreams.
"I'm here. I'll always be here with you. Sleep well, my darling," Kevin responded in a gentle voice. He leaned against the wall behind the bed and wrapped her head in his arms. She unwittingly moved to get comfortable in his embrace. Her movements were just like those of a kitten, lithe, lazy and adorable.
As if Leena had heard Kevin's words in her dreams, she became quiet and calm again. She fell back asleep. It seemed that one remark from Kevin was enough to comfort and satisfy her. She was totally at peace now. Her bad dreams faded away.
As a solder, admittedly he was never a romantic man. Since they wed, they barely had time to spend with each other, let alone to travel anywhere together. He felt deeply sorry in this regard. But he never had the chance to tell her how sorry he was, to admit this to her.
Most of the time, he wasn't even really emotional. He didn't spend enough time with her, and he felt bad for her because of it. He wouldn't even make their time together romantic to make up for lost time. He had a lot of improving to do.
Gently placing Leena's head on the pillow, he stood up and quietly walked to the balcony. There he took out his cellphone and made a call. He didn't care what other people in his family thought, but he knew his mother would be worried. So he wanted to call her and tell her that everything was fine here.
