It'll Come Naturally novel Chapter 1533

Walking into Leena's room again felt like walking into a time machine for Kevin. Everything there was the same as he remembered. It could have been a perfect nostalgia if only Leena was around. His heart broke a bit more when his eyes landed on the huge picture she had inside her room. It was a floor to ceiling picture of Leena smiling brightly. His feet moved by their own towards it as he couldn't help but want to touch it. She was so beautiful and innocent on that photo and God knew how it was making him miss her more.

'Nana, when are you coming back? Did you forget your way home? Did you forget about me? There are a lot of people who love you in S City, you know?'

He ran his fingertips on the photo to gently touch Leena's lips. He had always been a strong man but then he wasn't able to control himself from crying at that moment. He was empty! He was nothing but a hollow space without her and it hurt more than any other pain that he had encountered in the battlefield.

There was still a faint smell of her perfume that was left on her soft bed. Standing inside the room where Leena had lived for many years gave Kevin the feeling that she was still next to him.

With her scent surrounding him, Kevin soon felt at ease and fell asleep. He was too worn out that his body couldn't take the abuse anymore. He couldn't sleep the past few days, and he even couldn't eat. Belinda was about to wake him up for lunch when Duke suddenly stopped her. Duke might not be on the good side with Kevin but then he knew that his brother-in-law badly needed to rest.

"I am sorry that I've slept too long." Kevin felt a bit ashamed the moment he stepped into the living room and found everyone waiting for him. He just had a shower, thus, part of his hair was still wet. He didn't expect himself to sleep that long at all.

"It's okay. You are too tired. We were about to wake you up for lunch earlier. However, you were sleeping like a baby, so we didn't do that." Lloyd laughed as soon as he saw Kevin's reddened face.

"Dinner will be ready in a minute. Are you hungry? Would you like something to eat first?" interrupted Belinda with a soft smile. Everyone in the room looked easy and light except for Duke who remained cold as ever.

"It's all right. I can wait." This was the first time Kevin had been with them without Leena. Although he was not restrained, he was somewhat disappointed. It just felt like everything around him didn't mean a thing without Leena around.

"Then come and sit with me." Lloyd motioned Kevin to sit next to him enthusiastically. The old man did it with so much warmth that it took Duke's attention from his laptop. Suddenly jealousy flooded Duke, nonetheless, he kept quiet.

"Okay." Kevin did not refuse, and went straight to him and sat down.

"Are you feeling better now? Are you still tired?" Lloyd said happily with a kind smile on his face. Even in the face of Leena, Lloyd had not been so happy like now.
