It'll Come Naturally novel Chapter 1179

"I wish you wouldn't do it. I worry about you every time you get in that formula one." Leena could understand what the attraction was. Out there on the track, with speed and passion, straining the limits of machine and man. It was a way to blow off a lot of stress, she knew. But it always made her heart beat faster in worry to think of her friend crashing.

"Silly girl, what could happen? Don't you trust my skills?" Patricia said with a pretentious smile. She was one of the top three racers in the competition although she didn't get the grand prize. It was a good score, and definitely something to be proud of.

"It's not about trust. Accidents happen. I just worry about you." Patricia was her BFF and she didn't want anything bad to happen to her.

"This race is international. I don't want to give it up. It could mean big things," Patricia said with a bitter smile. She was fairly rich, and her family was well-educated. The world was her oyster, so why do something so dangerous? But she was the only one who understood why. Her life was boring. Her family was boring. She caught the rebellion bug, as bored teens often did, and started racing. Small-time at first, but she was hooked on the rush. Now, she was after bigger prizes.

"But, your family will figure it out sooner or later," Leena said anxiously, frowning.

"What about yours?" Patricia asked. "Does your family know what you did?" Patricia shot a meaningful glance at Leena. From the bottom of her heart, she wanted to be like Leena, carefree, able to pursue her dreams. But that was denied for her, so she chose to race cars.

"What did I do?" Leena asked with a puzzled face. She had nothing to hide from her family.

"You know. You got married! You brother loves you so much that I can't believe he actually let you do it. So you must be hiding it from him, right?" Patricia asked and stared at Leena smugly. She wanted to see how long Leena could pretend to be cool in front of her. She totally had it wrong, though.

"Sorry to disappoint you. My family already knows. I have no secrets," Leena said with a sly grin. 'Huh!' She thought to herself. She knew this would shock her friend. That was the point.

"No way! I remember your brother even stopped other guys from looking at you, bullying them until they backed down. How could he accept that you're married?" Patricia said and looked at Leena with surprise. She always thought Mr. Cold would keep his sister at home forever, a virgin. To her surprise, Leena married at an earlier age than anyone else. There was a saying: "man proposes but God disposes." In the end, sometimes something surprising happens, out of everyone's control.
