"All right, I am sorry. I was just bringing up a mere thought," pouted Claire. She honestly didn't believe that the painting was authentic. How could a regular family like Leena's afford such an expensive gift?

"Leena, honey, please pay no attention to what Claire said. She is always like this, blurting out things and ignoring others' feelings." An apologetic smile was on Shannon's face when she turned to Leena. She couldn't be sorrier about what her child just did.

"That's all right, Mother," replied Leena as she tried hard to keep her smile. Their family's little quarrel had drawn the attention of some people in the room, who were now looking towards them. She could feel her blood rushing to her face as she did her best to handle the embarrassment.

"You are a sweet girl, Leena. I wish Claire could be more like you. Now, why don't you go and hang out with the other young boys over there? They are from the army but are of similar age to you. I am sure you will hit it off instantly." Shannon glanced at her son who was now surrounded by his cousins. A surge of motherly pride got her with the view. Kevin had always been the best among the siblings of the big family no matter if it was in school or at the workplace.

"Not that there is anything particularly bad about it. It is just that the long separations due to army work demands can be more than what most women can take. Loneliness is inevitable after all." Lee regretted as soon as he finished his words, because it suddenly occurred to him that Leena herself had married to an army man. He ended up awkwardly scratching his head as he thought of how embarrassing his arbitrary theory was.

"Yes, I guess you are right. But there are exceptions, right?" A sly grin appeared on Leena's face. She knew that she was one of the exceptions.

"Yes, such as you, Leena. If you allow me to say so, I'm going to say that you are in fact a role model." If Leena had been any other ordinary girl instead of coming from an insanely rich family, Lee would have thought that it wasn't a big deal that she married Kevin. Girls were very picky nowadays in pursuing a romantic relationship. Though Kevin was very handsome and talented, his job could be intimidating to a potential bride. Serving in the arm demanded a lot of energy and time from a man. It was Leena's courage to marry an army man that made Lee sincerely respect her.
