I love you, I won't kill you

Not only forgot to ask if there were any other apartments for rent, but also forgot to ask if there was a supermarket nearby.The two of them kept talking and talking about living together in the car, and in the end Amanda didn't seem to have anything better to do.

Before driving, I had no choice but to say to Elena, "I can promise you that you will live in another bedroom in the apartment. However, I can't guarantee that doing so will arouse your mother's objection."

"Please, I am already an adult woman. The Federal Constitution grants me the right to love, marriage autonomy and personal rights! Well, my dear, they won't know. Besides, we are going to the base in a few days! Elena looked at Amanda, telling her reasons "righteously and sternly".

Not only do they want to fight for the "right of cohabitation", but they also move out of the US Constitution.Amanda felt that Elena had invaded half of her private space by doing so, but she couldn't refuse the girl's temptation to her.

Now I can only take one step at a time, and I looked at her while starting the engine, "Okay, you won. Now do you need me to send you home and pack your luggage?"

Elena turned on the GPS in the car, and flipped continuously to find the addresses of nearby businesses, "Well, I still win. Luggage, I can bring it myself. First...I have to buy some daily necessities for us, You won't object, will you?"

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

Minutes before dinner, Amanda dropped Elena back at her parents' house.In order not to arouse her mother's suspicion, the two discussed their arguments.In the end, Amanda insisted on skipping dinner and left alone.

Stopped by Zorba's Pizzeria for a takeaway pizza and a large coffee drink before heading back to the apartment.Lock the car door in the basement garage of the building, take the pizza box and take the elevator straight to the new home.

"Well... I finally have my own home, what should I do now?" Amanda stood in the living room, looking around with satisfaction.But after looking for a long time, it seems that there is nothing to do.The only things that can be done are cleaning the room and washing clothes.

With that decided, he walked into the room and drew the curtains.It was quite windy outside the apartment, but the room was unusually warm.He took off his clothes a few times and threw them on the carpet, walking around the room naked, packing his luggage.

Ten minutes later, he walked out of the room in sweatpants, a sports hoodie, and a pile of underwear and outerwear.When Tiffany showed her around, she had told her that there was a small room outside the bathroom with a washing machine and a simple wardrobe.

"It's not bad! At least it saves you the trouble of going to a dry cleaner outside to do laundry." Looking at the washing machine starting to work, Amanda put her hands on her sides, humming a song in a good mood.

Go back to the living room, sit on the sofa and open the pizza box.He turned on the TV, took out a piece of pizza covered with salad gravy and onions, put it in his mouth and chewed it.Now that I have a new home and a new starting point in life, do I need to inform my father and brother?It seems that this is not necessary.

After eating a few bites of pizza, he took out his phone and flipped through his address book.When he saw the name of his second brother Billy, his fingers paused for a few seconds.Hey, I haven't seen this second brother for several years.If Vincent hadn't told her that this guy was still with the SEALs, Amanda really thought he might have died in the line of duty.

There are many relatives in the family who joined the Navy or Marine Corps, and most of them died on the front line or sank in the trench of some ocean.It's just that in the generation of my father and myself, there are not as many relatives who died in the previous World War II or World War I, or even the American Civil War.

Just as he was about to call his second brother, a call came in.Amanda picked it up, "Hi, this is McLaren. Excuse me..."

"Hey, little girl, do you remember me? Maybe you think I'm dead!?" The call turned out to be from Billy.

Hearing the long-lost chatter and laughter, Amanda lay down on the sofa happily, "I don't remember, are you Billy? I thought some guy would call from hell!"

"Do you have several brothers named Billy? I just finished my mission and just returned to the base. I heard from Vincent that you are going to Quantico in a few days?"

Amanda picked up the pizza again, took a big bite and chewed, "Uh...uh...yes. Why, are you afraid that I won't be able to stay in the base, and I still don't have confidence in the McLaren family's children? ?”

"How come!? The McLaren family has never been a coward! By the way, I will go back to China to rest for a while in a few days. Need me and Vincent to visit the base, our little princess?"

After eating the pizza, I wiped my mouth with a tissue.Amanda kept yelling into the phone, "No! Oh, no, you can go home and rest. I won't stay at the base for long, and I will be deployed overseas."

"Really? Then why did I hear from Vincent that you will stay in the base for a long time? Besides, someone wrote you a letter of recommendation, recommending you to go to the Marine Corps officer school?"

Damn it!It was not a big deal, but now even Billy knows about it.Amanda didn't speak for a while, and she didn't know what to say while holding the phone.

After a few seconds of silence, Billy said, "I don't know, I just know it was written by that woman. I'm a marine, at least I remember the motto written on the wall of the base at Paris Island!"

Billy laughed softly, "Please, why do you have such a big opinion on our mother? Okay, okay. I'm done talking, give my regards to Father."

"I'm sorry, but I can't help you with this. Dear Navy Lieutenant, you'd better go greet him yourself!" After speaking, Amanda hung up the phone.

Amanda has been hesitating whether to go to the military school or not.If you go, it might be a new life experience, maybe you will be promoted to an officer.If you don't go, maybe it will really hurt your mother's heart.

In fact, Amanda still misses her mother a little bit.Especially when she saw Elena's mother, this feeling was very strong.Once upon a time, she also imagined what it would be like to snuggle in her mother's arms.
