It'll Come Naturally

"Colonel, do you think we can nail down several weapons this time?" Mark asked with great interest. As a soldier, anyone would like to touch this kind of hi-tech equipment, and Mark was no exception.

"I'm not sure right now. But, I think we won't take many this time as we are facing a great budget problem." Daisy replied. Her attention was still focused on the file.

"Colonel, why can't we request sponsorship for this program?" Mark asked with a frown. He was not as cheerful now as he was moments ago.

"This is a matter the leaders should worry about. It would be better if you just do your own job." Daisy raised her head and glanced at him. Then she continued to review the file.

"Okay, Colonel, let me find out what the other leaders think about this. You take your time, and I'll take your leave now." Mark said. Then he walked out of the office quickly. He was such a spirited young man!

Daisy felt speechless by his words. Mark had the knack for spying. He got his hands on all kinds of rumor and gossip. Daisy wondered how he got them. Maybe it was just like what he said, 'Knowing this and that ensures victory'.

Daisy continued to sift through the file. She didn't have the time to think where Mark go to get his dose of gossip. But right at that moment, she was interrupted by a sudden knock on the door.

"Come in, please," Daisy answered without raising her head. But she knew it wasn't Mark. Mark never knocked on the door before entering. He was very unceremonious like an impudent boy.
