Surprise

"He seemed to care a lot about Nathan. What do you think really happened between them?" Ask Robby.

"I don't want to think about it now, Robby. The crybaby has now left and cannot keep the promise we made the four of us to get back together when we go home..." Kevin smiled as he held back after losing one of his friends.

Seeing Kevin who tried to smile even though it seemed clearly forced, Robby then patted his friend's back and he himself felt the same way.

Emilia on the other hand had reached the door of Admiral Frank's office guarded by two soldiers. Although the door is guarded Emilia still entered just like that and was seen left by the two soldiers.

Admiral Frank, writing a report, looked at the door and found his daughter.

"Why don't you try to prevent him from going to war. Why would... Why would... Why don't you do it!" Said Emilia who was dissolved in a desperate atmosphere.

For the first time Admiral Frank can now see his daughter who is angry with him and desperate. As a father, he obviously did not expect this to his daughter.

"I'm sorry dad... But you've seen it for yourself, not when you tried to offer him two options back then?" Said Admiral Frank.

Emilia sat on the floor and began to cry which made Admiral Frank immediately approached his daughter and tried to win her over.

The next day Nathan awoke from his deep sleep and immediately sought out a fish for him to eat that morning using a spear.

As soon as he got a catch of fish quite large Nathan immediately lit the fireplace and burned it. "It's a pity there's nothing for me to take a shower with..."

Nathan is now aware that his location is not too far from the battle area yesterday and will most likely see a convoy of Allied ships returning to Pearl Harbor.

"I'd better wait for their convoy, all of you spend some time here..." Nathan said as he ate his grilled fish.

The man could actually arrive at Pearl Harbor today in his armor suit, but wanting to take a short vacation Nathan decided to settle on the island.

*******

Three days later after waiting on a small uninhabited island, Nathan saw a convoy of Allied naval fleets sailing towards Pearl Harbor.

Feeling that the convoy was close enough, Nathan then burned a large SOS writing that he made using coconut leaves.

Nathan did not put on a special expression to ask for help and instead casually waited while drinking coconut water until the crew saw the mark made.

On the other hand Admiral Frank who now has an inner pressure due to the straining relationship between himself and his daughter because a young man was in the steering room with his crew.

While exploring the expanse of sea water using binoculars, Admiral Frank accidentally saw a puff of smoke somewhere.

When a closer look Admiral Frank found an SOS writing on fire and there was a man casually looking at his fleet while drinking coconut water.

Admiral Frank's eyes widened in disbelief at what he saw. The man he saw was wearing American pilot clothes and was none other than Nathan.

"Why he could be there, instead of that time he drowned. Am I just hallucinating?" Admiral Frank murmured.

As soon as Admiral Frank checked it back he realized he was not hallucinating and immediately ordered a boat to pick up Nathan.

After Nathan is picked up and boarded the aircraft carrier Yorktown, he is immediately greeted by the marines who do not believe that he will survive.

Nathan's appearance, which looks like a tourist wearing sunglasses, makes the marines feel confused about the man, who seems to have no burden at all.

"What about your vacation, does it feel good to Mr Nathan?" Ask Admiral Frank who just came to the deck of the ship with some officers.

Nathan nodded slowly while drinking his dark water. "Of course I enjoyed it. My mind seems to be back to clear. You should try it too, Admiral Frank..."

The grit on Admiral Frank's forehead instantly appears and he strongly condemns Nathan resulting in a rift between the father and his daughter.

"Hurry to the health center to check on you and then meet me to explain everything!" Admiral Frank said before leaving.

Nathan then immediately executes the orders of Admiral Frank and along the way he gets a strange look from the other marines as if he were a ghost.

"What are you talking about?" Nathan asked the three men.

Harry, who was previously told by Kevin and Robby about Nathan's death, becomes fixated when he finds his best friend standing right next to him.

"Just talk about our friend's death, nothing more..." Reply Kevin who has not realized that Nathan is now right behind him.

On the other hand Robby who saw Harry was silent then looked back and immediately he also fell silent.

"Hey, why are you two so quiet?" Kevin became curious when he found his two friends speechless while looking behind him.

When Kevin checked towards the back, his gaze immediately widened wide until unconsciously his mouth also opened. The three men were shocked and speechless at the sighting of Nathan they thought was dead.

Emilia who had just walked out of her room towards Harry to check on him while reading his report.

"Mr Harry-" Before Emilia finished her words, she suddenly fell silent and the report in her hand fell upon seeing Nathan's presence there.

Kevin immediately realized from his daydream and immediately cupped Nathan's face to check that it was his friend or not.

"I didn't expect that your spirit could come to this place after death!" Said Kevin.

Nathan who was considered a spirit by Kevin felt annoyed and immediately snapped the man's head quite hard. "Do you want to die, huh? Who do you think is a fucking spirit!"

"www! Wait, not that you were killed three days ago. Why are you alive again!?" Said Kevin while rubbing his head that Nathan had just grabbed.

"Is this really you, Nathan?" Robby asked as she cupped Nathan's face and looked into his eyes.

"Yes... I'll explain later, now I want to check my body first." Nathan Said.

Nathan then turned his gaze towards Emilia who was still silent. "What are you doing there, doctor?" Ask Nathan.

Hearing a question from Nathan instantly made Emilia aware of her daydream and she then took back her report paper that had fallen.

"I just wanted to check on your friend. Better now that you're in my chamber, I'm checking you there..." Emilia said expressionlessly and was still as cold as ever.

Nathan thoughtlessly entered Emilia's study, which left the three friends astonished by what they saw.

"Hey, it's not that strange. It's not usually that the doctor lets someone, especially a guy, into his room?" Kevin whispered beside Robby's ear.

"Yes, I also feel that something is going on between them..." Reply Robby.

While Harry looks happy and timid when examined directly by Emilia especially when looking at the buttons of the beautiful doctor's shirt that will come off because it is not strong to withstand the weight and size of his chest.

On the other hand Nathan sat waiting in Emilia's work room while paying attention to the items around him.

Not long after Emilia entered and there was the sound of a closed door. Emilia then sat down at her desk and had a casual expression as if nothing had happened.

"Looks like your vacation's been a lot of fun, Mr. Nathan..." Emilia said without looking at Nathan and focusing on the paper sheets on her spelled work.

"You're right my vacation was so much fun on that island..." Nathan replies casually while drinking the coconut water he still brought from the island before him.

Hearing Nathan's words just now instantly made Emilia become annoyed herself. For three days he cried for the man and thought he was dead who had not expected it was even on vacation.

For three days he ignored his father and this made Emilia think that she was a stupid woman.

"I'm not sure that you're enjoying your holiday alone on an uninhabited island, Mr. Nathan... Especially without a woman..." Emilia.

"It's true that I'm not enjoying my vacation without a woman. If only there had been a woman stranded at that time, maybe I would have chosen to settle down and make a colony there..." Nathan's reply.

Krakk!!!

The pen in Emilia's hand instantly broke in two. Emilia sharply looked at Nathan who looked relaxed like a tourist out of vacation.
