At this moment, Edward knew that he really fell in love with her. He had never experienced such feelings before. His heart wrenched at the feeling -- it was miserable. As he approached the army base his thoughts grew more tangled.
'What if she's not there? Even if she is at the base, what do I do if I'm not allowed in?' thought Edward. Endless questions filled his brain, making him lose his mind. This was unlike the master strategist, the smiling tiger CEO. But business and love are two different beasts.
The car rolled to a stop at the gates of the army base. Looking at the powerful solders standing guard, he never hated who he was as much as today. He suddenly had a thought that it would be wonderful if he were a common soldier, so he wouldn't be kept outside.
