Rules of Engagement

The next show was boring, mainly because Elsa was so nearsighted that she couldn't see very far under the glasses. She just watched some program which was good for the visual sight. She didn't feel anything uncomfortable while watching the program. She just listened to the soldiers in the back rows applauding.

"Are you tired?" Soren asked with concern.

"I'm fine. Only my eyes are tired," she said, rubbing her temples

"I actually feel bored. I have watched the show with my leaders five times," Soren said in a low voice

"Really? That would be so boring. I thought you liked it," Elsa answered in surprise.

"Let's go out to get some air, shall we?"

"Okay."

Both of them were surprised and excited to feel this kind of furtive behavior. Fortunately, they quickly moved to the other side of the room and left as quickly as possible without anybody noticing their exit.

It was completely dark outside, far away from the noise in the performance hall. Suddenly coming out, both of them felt very quiet, as if they were hiding on tiptoe.

"Good evening, sir!" A soldier's loud voice startled Elsa. She threw herself into Soren's arms as if some dangers were coming to her.

The soldier said without looking sideways. Hearing that, Elsa couldn't help laughing. Soren patted her on the head and said, "You silly girl. There is no rule that says we must come here to watch the performance to the end. It doesn't matter if we leave halfway. But I feel a little bit disrespectful to those actors."

It was completely dark everywhere except for the street lights. There were soldiers passing by occasionally. Wearing the military uniform, it was too troublesome for Soren to walk around, so they had to return to Soren's dormitory.

When Soren came back, he found the dishes were untouched. In fact, he had dinner with his leader that night. Elsa didn't eat her meal. He put the food into the microwave oven. Looking back at Elsa, he found that she was really hungry.

Amused by her kitten-like expression, he asked, "Why didn't you have dinner before you rushed there?"

"I was afraid you might wait too long," Elsa answered. "I was afraid that Bob would wait too long," she added urgently.

"Of course not. I asked someone to send some food here because I wanted you to have it before joining me." When the food was served on the table, the fragrance filled the room.

Elsa sniffed. "It smells good. Is it mushroom?"

"Yes, the dinner has mushroom." Soren picked up a bowl on the table and handed it to Elsa.
