I love you, I won't kill you

Looking at the two-story American country house in front of her, Amanda felt a sense of love from the bottom of her heart, "Going home!"

Carrying the luggage, walk up the path between the lawns, then turn left, and walk along the path in front of the garage of my father's house to the porch.Glancing at the American flag hanging on the right side of the stairs, walked up the wooden steps a few steps, and lightly pressed the doorbell.

"Oh, God, Amanda?!" With a quiet voice, a middle-aged American woman with a good temperament looked at the second lieutenant officer in surprise after opening the door.

"Uh, may I ask you..." Amanda felt as if she didn't know her.

"Hi, Amanda, I'm so glad to see you come home." The middle-aged woman stepped forward and hugged her tightly.

"Lauren, what are you doing? Who's home?" Nelson walked over with a long-handled car repair tool.

"Daddy, I'm back." Amanda stared closely at Nelson, stepped forward and hugged her father.

The middle-aged woman looked at the father and daughter with a smile, and said softly, "Father and daughter are reunited, what a happy scene! I am proud of your reunion!"

Nelson looked at her and let go of his daughter's arms. "Sit down, my little angel."

Amanda sat on the sofa in a relaxed manner, observing the layout of the house freshly.The middle-aged woman sat down very politely and said to her, "I'm sorry, I forgot to introduce myself just now. I'm Lauren Nicholson, your father's girlfriend."

"Well, nice to meet you. Now that you know who I am, I don't think I need to explain anything special, do I?"

"Uh, it's okay. And, I'm glad to meet you, too."

Amanda nodded and looked at her father, "Colonel, is this true? When did it happen?"

Then Nelson smiled a little embarrassedly, and said to his daughter, "Uh, you know, Lauren has been a civilian in the police station before I entered the police station three years ago..."

Suddenly, she wanted to see her father's embarrassment, leaned on the sofa and said slowly, "I understand. A few cups of coffee, a few warm dinners, a date in a police car on a country road, and a few pleasant words um, you two slept together?"

Hearing this, Lauren's face began to turn red, and her expression was a little unnatural.Nelson took a look at the two women, and coughed deliberately, "Uh, baby, Nicholson is a well-bred lady."

"Uh huh, education means sex, right, Lauren?" Amanda sounded as if she only regarded Lauren as her father's girlfriend.

"Uh, Amanda, are you tired? I'll make you coffee." Lauren stood up and walked towards the kitchen.

"No sugar, thank you." After Amanda finished speaking, she looked at Ms. Nicholson's elegant back and elastic buttocks, and said to her father with a smile, "Congratulations, Daddy. I hope Lauren can be a part of your later life." A charming rainbow!"

Nelson smiled triumphantly. "Thanks. Look, how's my charm?"

"Well, not much. When are you two going to get married?"

"Uh, baby, what do you think about traveling and getting married?"

"Great, why not? Well, you two can go and buy a luxury RV. Luxurious carpet, tiled floors, luxury home refrigerator, luxury LCD TV's in the living room and bedroom, surround home theater and luxury bathrooms.. ...."

"Nelson, why don't we have a happy conversation at the dinner table?" Lauren walked over with a cup of black coffee without sugar.

"Yes, that's right. My little angel, haven't you tasted the taste of hometown for a long time?" Nelson stood up and said.

"Exactly. However, I often eat the best lobster in the United States in Iraq." Amanda replied.

Only then did Lauren understand where Amanda came back from for vacation.I was so excited that I hugged her again, "Oh, my lovely baby, you just came back from Iraq?"

Amanda nodded, "Yeah. I'm hungry, can I have dinner?"

....................

Today's dinner at McLaren's house didn't end until 8:[-] in the evening.When Lauren drove home alone, Amanda opened the door from the living room to the basement.

"The little girl is on her mind again?" Nelson was thinking, and walked towards the basement with two small 330ml bottles of beer.

"Daddy, do you want to talk to me?" Amanda asked while disassembling an M4A1 carbine without looking back.

Nelson was a little surprised, and then smiled lightly, "Yes. What if the person who came was not me?"

Amanda turned and glanced at her father, took the beer and said, "That's impossible! Now, I can already tell from the sound of a person's footsteps whether it is a man, a woman, an old man or a child. If you are a Sunni , let me kill it long ago.”

"Yes, your battlefield judgment is learned very well. However, sometimes if your judgment is too sensitive..."

"Daddy, you want to tell me about post-Iraq war or traumatic neurosis. Right?" Amanda put down the gun parts in her hand and said while holding a beer bottle.

"Well, traumatic neurosis. This is a kind of mental trauma. It does not bleed or infect, but it can make people depressed, depressed, and even fall into despair about life and the future." Nelson narrated.

"But there are also some people who watched their brothers die and shed tears. They became numb, emotionless, and real war machines." Then, he said to his daughter.

Amanda picked up the beer bottle and took a sip, "Well, I don't think I belong to these two types of people. Daddy, I have received emotional division training. It is a kind of helicopter pilot, and it is trained to identify and report operational risk factors. "

"Really? Well, not bad." Nelson nodded.

"Okay. If you fight for the honor of the McLaren family, you will be buried in the grave like most of the family. If you fight for yourself, I believe you will have the last laugh." Then Said.

"Thank you, Daddy."

Nelson didn't ask any more, he knew that his daughter was also a true patriot.But the Iraq War launched by President Bush Jr. in 03 now seems to be a wrong "patriotic act".

That night, Amanda posted the news of her return to China on Twitter and the homepage of Facebook.But when she was about to take a break, there were suddenly many requests for video calls on the laptop.

She wakes up at 5 o'clock the next morning because she has a lot to do from now on.Buy a new phone, get a new number, buy a used car...

Why is it still a used car?Now, she is an army officer earning $[-] a year.In addition, during the war in Iraq, almost no money was spent.Therefore, returning to the country also means that the living conditions can be improved.

There is a car dealership just off Highway 26 and only 1.1 miles from Amanda's father's house.She can even buy the car when she goes for a morning jog.

But the dealership that specialized in Chevrolets didn't have the model she wanted.Could it be that the "Bumblebee" (Chevrolet Camaro SS, a concept sports coupe) in "Transformers", which was screened globally in 07, couldn't attract her attention?

The answer is yes, because she is also an American who likes powerful, powerful American cars.Although the Camaro is a classic American symbol of Chevrolet, she, like other young Americans, prefers the Ford "Mustang" (a muscular two-door American sports car).

"Little angel, where do you want to go?" Nelson sat at the dining table and asked his daughter.

"Uh, I need you to drive me to Greystone Avenue next to Route 176." Amanda said while eating breakfast.

"Greystone Avenue? Uh, want to buy a car?"

"Yeah. I'm an American, and I can't live without a car, right?"

Nelson put down the newspaper and smiled. "Um, so, what car does my little angel want to buy?"

Amanda said casually, "'09 Shelby 'Cobra' GT500 from Ford!"
