Finn said "I have to say Steve you have remarkable little girl there. There is anything to worry about but I would watch what you say around her she had perfect recall and for someone her age she has a great deal of knowledge vast number of topics. She is going to be great asset to any job she pursuit"
Steve smile said "I know she already driving Joe crazy with her memory of hers" he laughed adds "she quoting him back to him last week when he switched his team he back to the team that won the game. Nothing gets buy her."
Finn said "remarkable" more to himself than anyone else.
Evelynn and Steve meet up with Catherine for lunch at the mass hall where they ran in to Freddie. When little Evelynn spotted her Uncle she took off running forwards him yelling "Uncle Freddie".
Steve keeps one eye on her while filling Catherine in what was said at the medical bay by Commander Finn. To which Catherine simply said "so nothing we didn't already know"
Steve said "we have remarkable little girl" Catherine smile nodding in agreement with Steve as the two caught up with their daughter and Freddie who had already line up to get their food.
While wait in line Evelynn fill Freddie in on what he had missed while he was way on his mission. She tell him "Kym started school this year I miss seen her at daycare in morning she still come in for few hours after school until Aunty Michelle can pick her up and we going to same gymnastics classes together."
She laughs as she tells him about her little experiment to turn a bad boy good with one cookie for a treat if he was good for the whole day. "It took 30 days to him to say please and thank you without anything treats" she tells him.
Freddie laughed his niece was something else only she would come up with crazy idea like that but then he remember just who daughter she was and the only conclusion was that Evelynn was her father's daughter.
Freddie asked "what else did I miss while I was way?"
Evelynn said "I started doing rings and bar in Gymnastics and Dada said that I could take Jujitsu and Karate when I turn three but that is two months away"
When Evelynn asked for war story from her uncle she didn't miss the look that her father shot her uncle the silent warning she had seen him give her Grandpa Joe whenever she fully weak.
Freddie said "there once was a sailor that went from port to port looking for any bad guys he could find. He spend many months sailing around the world, night after night, day after day soon he was start to miss his family and friends. Been way for months at time away from his family and friends he was every lonely sailor until one day a fellow sailor came and said it was his turn to go home and see family and friends the fellow sailor could sail from port to port look for any bad guys. So Sailor came home to his family and friends he was every happy man"
Evelynn said "huh how is that war story Uncle Freddie there not boom or bang, bang"
Catherine try to explain "sometimes there no explosions or gunfight in war story"
Evelynn look up her mother like she was out of this world before saying "I don't understand"
Catherine informed her "no sometime is heartache and lost"
Steve added "only your mother would see romances in war story Keiki" he smiled at his wife.
Evelynn said "okay but how can heartache and lost be romantic story be a war story there no happily ever after"
Catherine said "not all war stories have a happy ending sometimes it ends with lost and heartache that part of war and not all romantic story end happily ever after sometimes the prince and princess don't end up together"
Evelynn said "I understand I don't like it but I understand. It likes Uncle Freddie and Aunt Kelly fight a lot and they don't talk for days until they see one other again before Uncle Freddie goes on other mission and Uncle Freddie still waiting for his happily ever after ending to his break up and make up story he has going on with Aunt Kelly"
Catherine laughed and tell smile at his best friend poor Freddie every nearly chocked on his roasted chicken. Evelynn said "Uncle Freddie you should tell Aunt Kelly that all the fighting is eat way the little time you both have together. It better not waste any time because the time we get with family and friends is special and you should make the most of time you have together so no more fighting with Aunt Kelly okay Uncle Freddie"
Freddie asked "how did you know I was fight with Aunt Kelly again?"
Evelynn said "you are not wearing the watch that Aunt Kelly gave you for your birthday. You always don't wear it whenever you fight with her"
Freddie said "I didn't know I did that" he looked down at his left arm where he normally wears the watch to see it was missing.
