10 Kick Your Butt

"Dad, can I visit you inside the military school now? I'm done with shopping and having fun with my friends." Keira said sweetly from the other end of the line.

Field Marshal Chan's brow arched because this was the first time that his daughter wanted to visit him at work.

Keira always hated visiting the base. Whenever he asked her to accompany him to the base, she would always find an excuse to not go.

'You brat, you had ignored your father before and now because of…' he thought sourly, then sighed.

Well, at least, the man his daughter was swooning over was trustworthy and he couldn't find anything bad to say about Zach at all.

He couldn't even curse the man for bewitching his only daughter.

If there's a man, he would be willing to trust the life of his daughter: it was Zach.

He had monitored the guy growing from the bottom and saw his exceptional abilities on the battlefields, besides he even owed that man for saving his life.

Yes, if not for Zach, he wouldn't have been as healthy as a bull right now...

"Alright, come over here then." He answered and he could hear his daughter's happy thud.

His lips curved upward, he knew his daughter wanted to visit, as she thought that Zach was at the base.

He was a stingy father that would love to tease his daughter so he intentionally did not tell Keira that Zach was on a vacation.

.....

Keira was whistling happily inside the car as she looked at herself in the mirror.

She hated visiting or accompanying her dad before because she knew that he would only introduce her to his old senior officers, then they would talk about boring stuff that would just make her fall asleep.

But now, she knew that Zach would be there. For the first time in her life, she was excited about visiting her dad at the base, in her free time spared of training.

John and Jim exchanged meaningful glances. Whenever Miss Keira was happy, she would whistle her favorite song and she was really good at it...

"J & J, what do you think of my appearance right now?" Keira asked, smiling.

Jim was driving the car, while John was at the passenger seat. Keira often called them shortly J & J since she was too lazy to call them by their names whenever she asked both of them about something.

Miss Keira was a natural beauty and never needed any makeup.

"Stunning as always," John commented as he turned back to look at her.

"Absolutely… Miss Keira is the most beautiful woman on earth alive." Jim declared as he looked through the rearview mirror.

That was the dialogue Keira taught them herself... He did not mind saying it, at least, it was not a lie. Miss Keira was really an outstanding beauty, one of a kind.

.....

Keira walked gracefully towards her dad's office, but her eyes had vaguely scanned everywhere she walked by.

She hoped to see Gen. Zach somewhere. But to her disappointment, she couldn't see him anywhere.

She pressed the doorbell, and a soldier opened the door. As soon as he saw her face on the screen, he quickly opened the door.

"Miss Keira, please come in. The Field Marshal is with…" started the soldier but paused when Keira's lovely smile flashed right in front of him.

'How come such beauty exists? I can melt just with that smile,' the soldier thought dreamingly with an open mouth, staring at Keira.

Keira winked before she turned around and walked straight to her dad's office. She loved to see how every man drooled over her beauty. It's not her fault to be born like that, but, of course, she was grateful to be born beautiful. It's a blessing she wouldn't dare to reject.

"Hi dad, I did not see him around… Where is my man?" She said directly and failed to notice the man who was sitting on the sofa, drinking coffee.

"Is he out?" She continued and stopped when her dad stared at her, signaling her to shut up.

Then, she heard a cough from behind. She turned around and saw a young man.

"Oh, I'm sorry… It was very rude of me… I did not notice… Oh, do you have an important meeting? I will go ahead…" Keira said apologetically.

"No, it's okay. I'm about to leave anyway." The man answered as he stood up.

Field Marshal Chan rose from his chair and walked to Keira, while his eyes were at the man.

"Oh, you haven't met each other yet. This is my daughter, Keira. Dear, he is General Jeru Liu."

Keira gave him her usual smile and extended her hand, which the latter accepted.

Jeru smiled widely, he was obviously, completely smitten by Keira's beauty.

"Are you looking for someone? Maybe, I can help you and..." Jeru said.

Keira was about to answer and mention Zach, but her father interrupted quickly.

"Oh, she's looking for her godfather Gen. Leo. I've forgotten to tell her that he is on a vacation. Both he and General Zach filed a leave, and will be back before the admission test starts." Field Marshal Chan commented, which made Keira crumple her face.

"What? How long will that take?" She blurted out.

"Probably he will return before the admission test begins, so you have to focus on your training well during this time, instead of slacking like this." Field Marshal Chan commented.

"Sir, excuse me, if I may ask what do you mean?" Jeru interrupted with a furrowed forehead.

"Oh, this stubborn daughter of mine will take the tests. She wants to enter our base." Field Marshal Chan said simply and fixed some of the documents that he was going to take home.

Jeru laughed… "Sir, your joke is too much." He said still laughing.

Keira's eyebrow arched.

"Jeru, we will go ahead first," Field Marshal Chan said.

He quickly pulled his daughter towards the door before she started a debate with Jeru. He was sure that Gen. Liu would end up being embarrassed.

But Keira was unstoppable.

She paused and turned her head to look at Jeru intently, with still arched eyebrow she said, "Do I look funny, Gen. Liu?"

Then, she dropped her killer smile and added, "Get used to this face because you will often see me after that admission tests. I will kick your butt while you drool..." before she said any other words, her father quickly pulled her out of the room.

Jeru was left dumbfounded…
