Justin had been pestering Kevin to ask him about the current situation in the army base and his uncle Lee. Since Kevin had no interest in joining the conversation, he had no idea what they were laughing at.

  "Uncle Kevin, how's uncle Lee doing? I haven't heard from him for ages! Has he completely forgotten about me?" Justin asked. It had been a long time since Justin left the army base, and he was worried that Lee might have forgotten him. They used to be very close and now he wouldn't even make a phone call.

  "What are you talking about?! That's not possible! Lee could never ever forget you! If you miss him so much, why don't you go to the army base next weekend with your mom?" Kevin laughed and pinched his cute little nose. When Justin used to live in the army base before, Lee always played with him. He used to teach him how to shoot with a sling, how to climb trees, and how to escape forest mazes. They had this special relationship and Justin perceived Lee as his older brother. That was why he missed Lee so much after having left the army base. Some part of his life had been left behind.

  "But mom always refuses to take me to the army base. She's always too busy for that." Justin looked down and pursed his lips angrily. He had the best time in his life there and really missed everything about the army base, even the waking-up-at-5am-thing. There had been of course hard days — lack of snacks, lots of work, and not enough sleep. But as long as he and his mother depended on each other, he had nothing to complain about.

  "How about this: next time, you'll tell your mother that you want to

  Drugged one night by her ex-boyfriend, a mysterious man took advantage of her in an ecstatic night filled with sex.

  To take her revenge, she married the man, and used him.

  "As long as I'm alive, I'm still his legal wife, while all of you are just his mistresses."

  She remained adamant even when he was involved in scandals with other women.

  Eventually she stormed off after she learned that he had betrayed her again.But life brought her back to him a few years later, to his astonishment.

  "Uncle Rain, you are being such a fool. Why did you try to argue with my mommy? She's daddy's favorite. You're screwed!" Justin's voice filled the room as he looked at Rain, making fun at his misery. Though it seemed like he was reminding Rain, he was inflaming the situation actually.

  "Nooo, I was not arguing with her, but I strongly disagree with her statement that men are too blind not to ask Claire out." Rain sighed with profound resignation. He was for sure not trying to offend Edward's beloved wife. If someone had ever done that, Edward would in no way tolerate this. Rain had no guts to set himself against Edward, as everybody else.

  "Are you questioning my choice?" Edward asked in a slow yet firm tone as he decided to join his wife in torturing Rain.

  "Edward, please don't make fun of me. You know, I never dare to disrespect you in any way." Rain was almost crying now. All he wanted was somebody to come and rescue him from this devastating discussion he threw himself in.
