Cynthia reached her hand and slicked back Daisy's hair. Such a gentle move gave Daisy a familiar feeling. Edward also liked to twiddle with her hair, Daisy realized this habit was inherited from his mother's tenderness. No matter how much he rejected her mother's love, his cold heart had already been lted by this love. Blood is thicker than water, the saying goes, and this seed to hold true now.
The leaves on the trees by the side of the road moved with the gentle breeze, like mischievous spirits dancing wantonly. Kevin drove fast along this road. He felt anxious about what Daisy had said to him this afternoon. He had thought to call Leena to show that he cared, but he always got a busy line when he called.
He licked his chapped lips caused by the dry weather in the autumn, his eyebrows furrowing deeper. He could have gotten off work earlier. But he was delayed by so urgent affair. This was ordinary as a soldier and Kevin couldn't do anything about it. He actually had no ti at his disposal.
It only took half an hour for Kevin to arrive at his apartnt, he usually would spend an hour in traffic. Obviously he drove very fast. He took a deep breath in front of the door. He had thought to ring the bell, but he paused before pressing the button. He gave up on the idea and took the key out of his briefcase.
He had imagined that at the mont he opened the door, he would see a sweet scene as Leena would smile gracefully at him under the soft light in surprise. It was his turn to be surprised, for when he opened the door, what embraced him was complete darkness in the house.

She stupidly waited for him the whole night yesterday, because she still had a glimr of hope for him. But she had already beco numb and desperate after waiting for him so long till now. From the mont when she ca back ho from the hospital, she had imagined nurous scenes how she could face him when he ca back. But he didn't show up the whole night, and worse, he didn't even call.
Okay, he was a soldier, and probably there were cases when it was not convenient for him to make a call. For that she would not take offense and it was forgivable. But from yesterday night till tonight, she didn't eat anything. She had tried hard to persuade herself to go out to relax a bit, because she worried that her mind would explode with nervous tension. but she didn't think that she'd be confronted with Kevin's harsh interrogation the mont she walked in the door. And this finally led to the burst of her emotions which had accumulated in her heart for awhile now. It had been a long ti coming.
