Tom always got to work on time. It was as Edward had expected. Punctuality was Tom's strong suit. When Edward entered Tom's office without knocking, he was met by a pair of fierce eyes.

She told Edward there was no need for her to go to the hospital and she could simply apply some medicine on her wounds, but Edward ignored her opinion and took her here immediately.
"Come on! If you're out of shape, what does that make me? A lazy pig, that's what. I might die of embarrassment!"

"You remember that, huh? I thought you were too busy to remember their wedding." Edward pinched Daisy's nose affectionately, eyes full of love. Being the husband of a soldier, he had to put up with loneliness, and worry about her safety from time to time. He had asked himself for several times why he fell in love with Daisy. But he didn't have an answer yet. What is love? Nobody could answer it clearly.

"All right! Have a safe drive." Edward kissed Daisy on her forehead and opened the car door for her.
