It'll Come Naturally

Daisy Ouyang had shut her emotions down and become cold again. She was used to it. For years she was in love with a man who would never love her back. His affair meant nothing to her. She would just carry on quietly as she always had. She would paint a picture of him when she missed him so much she couldn't sleep, and bury herself in training during the day so she wouldn't miss him then. She would endure.

"Where are we going, mommy?" Justin looked at Daisy, suddenly worried.

"Oh! Sorry, Justin, mommy was thinking about something. Are you hungry?" Daisy sighed. Her hair was a little messy in the wind. She combed it with her fingers and looked around, only to find that there wasn't a restaurant among the stores nearby.

"No, I'm not hungry. What about you, mommy?" Justin asked. He felt bad for his mom.

"Me neither. Let's go back to the base! Mommy will cook some noodles for you." Daisy said and tried to take her phone out of her pocket, only to find that she was wearing a dress with no pockets. She had left the phone in Edward's car, and had no money on her now.

"I need to borrow your phone, Justin. Let's call Uncle Mark. He'll come and drive us back." Daisy chastised herself. 'That was careless, Daisy. You keep doing stupid things.'

"Okay, mommy." His phone started ringing loudly as he reached into his bag. Justin took it out and saw it was Edward. He looked at Daisy, not knowing what to do.

"What? Who is it?" Daisy looked at him, wondering why he didn't answer it.
