Naive Jimmy? (edited)

Chapter 13: Naive Jimmy?

Listening to Alicia's resolute voice, Aunt May has decided to trust her niece.

She replied to her niece, "Little Alicia, I will do as you say, but I will take time to make the preparations. We will depart tomorrow from here. You stay here with Aiden and remember to take a good rest."

Alicia listened to her aunt, fully trusting her decision without any complaints. She felt warm in her heart and said in a cheerful voice, "Aunt May, you are the best Aunt ever." She hugged her tightly.

May, feeling the hug, reciprocated while saying, "Okay, okay, I have to go now. You take care of Aiden and yourself."

Before leaving, she gave a deep look at the nurse who was standing next to Alicia while saying, "Take good care of both of them, understood?"

Seeing her cold red eyes and emotionless face, the nurse felt a chill in her spine and quickly nodded.

Alicia didn't say anything; her focus was on Aiden, who was lying on the bed.

She sat next to him, holding his hand, praying in her mind that he would wake up quickly.

May walked outside of the door, noticing the two military soldiers guarding the door. She gave them a serious warning that if something happened to the people inside the room, both of them were dead.

Both soldiers started guarding the door with their lives so as not to let something unexpected happen.

In a mountain range covered in a thin layer of snow, roughly 100 kilometers away from the hospital where Aiden is currently being treated, they had covered all the corpses with white clothes as nobody wanted to see the dead bodies.

Squad Leader Jimmy and their colleague are guarding the parimeters of the plane crash site when suddenly his smartphone, given by the military, starts to vibrate.

Jimmy took out his phone to check who was calling him. Seeing the general was calling, he quickly picked up the phone to answer.

As he first saluted the general, a cold voice sounded from the other side.

"Send a military helicopter to pick me up at the hospital where you have admitted the boy, and be sure to send it as quickly as you can."

Jimmy, listening to the voice, quickly replied with a loud, "Understood, Ma'am."

And with a beep, the call ended.

Jimmy let out a sigh of relief quickly and called all the other squad leaders to decide which of the three would be going to pick the general because they could not send lower-ranking officers then, as that would be disrespectful to the general.

As they had decided to see, the one who would do fewer push-ups would be the one to go.

In Jimmy's mind, he thought, *I will be the first one to do the push-ups and crush their spirit as their result will be affected.*

But the remaining two officers thought in their minds that they would never be the ones to do it first, as they would rather die than lose without seeing a target. But for the first, they didn't know how much is good.

All three of them have good, well-shaped bodies.

Three of them stared deep into each other's eyes. Tension began to build up, and three of them shouted at the same time.

The two squad leaders beside Jimmy shouted, "I would be the last one to do it." They were ready to fight for the last place with intense eyes.

As they heard Jimmy shout at the same time, "I will be the first one to do it."

Seeing Jimmy's cheerful shout, both of them looked at each other as if communicating with their eyes and nodded, thinking that this self-proclaimed hero was also here, as he didn't leave a single moment to show off.

They reluctantly accepted Jimmy's offer, saying that he had previously sacrificed himself by directly talking to the general.

And being his comrades, it is their duty not to forget his sacrifice.

Jimmy felt very touched by his comrades' responses and happily accepted the first place to do the push-ups.

Jimmy started doing the military push-ups, and he had done a total of 91 push-ups.

Seeing Jimmy's score, the two officers felt it would be a tough match for them, but one of them volunteered to go in second place.

He had done a total of 93 push-ups, but at the last two, his face was completely red, and shouted loudly and finally collapsed on the ground.

The third officer had a very serious look on his face because his personal best is only 89 push-ups, and it would be pretty hard for him to do more than Jimmy.

When he was doing the push-ups, Jimmy had a serious look on his face because this match would decide if he would be the one to go or not.

Seeing that, only at the 89th push-up, his face is completely red, and he is also shouting. Jimmy felt he would win this match.

But the officer in front of him didn't give up and continued with the next push-up with a shaking hand, red face, and groans escaping his mouth occasionally.

Jimmy could feel that if he tried to do one more, he would hurt himself, and seeing him trying to do one more, Jimmy said to him, "Well, I will go in your place. Don't hurt yourself trying to do more."

Listening to Jimmy's voice, the officer on the ground doing the push-ups suddenly stopped and collapsed on the ground.

He didn't doubt that Jimmy would keep his word because this wanna-be hero was a very trustworthy person, and every officer in both their squad and his squad respected him very much.

But they also felt he was very naive, but they still liked him very much as he said to Jimmy, "Jimmy, thank you for going to pick up the general. I am very scared of the General." He was completely sure that he could have done the last push-up.

Jimmy was both scared and excited to meet the general who had saved his life 10 years ago, and he also wanted to thank her himself. But listening to the rumors about her, he was very scared of her.

Talking to her the other day also terrified him and made him believe the rumors of her beating men to the brink of death for looking at her more than they should.

He quickly chose two officers from his team to operate the military helicopter, and he was sitting in the back of the helicopter as they departed to pick up the general.
