It'll Come Naturally novel Chapter 1770

When Kevin stealthily went up the stairs and slowly opened the bedroom door, he turned on the night light and saw his beautiful wife and cute son sound asleep. Happiness flooded his chest, and he felt reinvigorated.

He walked over to the bedside quietly, careful not to wake his family up. He skillfully dodged the various toys strewn about. When he reached the bedside, he kissed both Leena and Richard on the forehead. Richard didn't wake from this, while Leena murmured something and turned, her eyes still closed.

Kevin smiled at this and walked towards the bathroom. His arm was still injured, so he made sure not to get the affected area wet. So it took more time to shower than usual.

After being satisfied, he washed away all the dirt and grime, turned the valve off and stepped out the shower to dry his hair. A smiling face welcomed him. Leena was standing by the door.

"Did I wake you up?" Kevin stopped drying his hair immediately and skillfully put the towel on his arm in an attempt to cover the wound up. As the gauze and towel were both white, it was difficult to notice the gauze under the dim bathroom lights.

"No, you didn't actually. I'm just so thirsty, so I got up to drink water." Leena was still groggy, talking with her eyes still half open. She still had trouble adjusting to the light.

"Alright, you stay put. I'll get you a glass of water," he offered. He had originally thought she was still sound asleep, so he hadn't brought his pajamas into the bathroom with him. He could only send her away with an excuse so that he could wear long pajamas to cover his wound.

"Hey, it's okay. I'll go grab it myself. When did you get back? Have you eaten?" Leena slowly went back to normal. When she and Kevin were newlyweds, she would feel shy seeing his half-naked body. But now, she was already used to it.

"I just arrived, actually and just took a bath. Also, I ate already." Kevin wanted to take his beautiful wife in his arms and just hug her real tight, but he wouldn't dare move, for fear she would notice his wound instantly.

"Go and get dressed already. You might catch a cold being all naked like that," Leena said with a frown. Although spring had arrived, the weather was still chilly.

"Alright sure. Weren't you going to grab a glass of water downstairs?" he asked in the most natural sounding way he could. He needed an excuse to put on his pajamas.

"I'll go get your pajamas first so you can get dressed." She turned around and walked towards the closet.

'Crap, what should I do?' Kevin thought to himself. Inwardly panicking, he wanted to stop her, but it was too late. She was already walking towards him, dark blue pajamas in hand.

"Nana, why don't you fetch me a glass of water as well? I feel parched after that hot shower." Kevin tried another excuse, but this one was poorer than the last.
