Nico stopped at the Mid Valley Villa parking lot and ran into Abdi. He immediately asked for the direction Anya and Aiden were passing.

Abdi immediately pointed to the left, "They went by this route."

​​

"Are you sure?" Nico looked at Abdi suspiciously.

Mid Valley consisted of several small mountains and distinct valleys. Each path would lead to a different mountain peak.

"Why are you still daydreaming? Let's hurry up and go!" Tara said.

"Where are we going? Do you know where they went?" Nico got back into his car and grabbed the steering wheel. He stared at the two lanes in front of him, not knowing which way to take.

"Didn't Aiden's driver just say they went left? Let's hurry to the left!" Tara said.

"No! I will not be fooled. Abdi pointed to the left, meaning they must be using the right lane. They are afraid that we will mess up their date so that they are purposely giving the wrong direction." Nico immediately stepped on the gas of his car and headed the other way.

"Are you sure?" Tara asked doubtfully.

"This morning, at breakfast, when I asked them where they were going, Anya refused to answer. She was afraid I would interfere with their date. I'm sure they pass this route." Nico drove his car, smiling triumphantly.

However, Tara still looked doubtful. From the rearview mirror of the car, she could see Abdi was still standing in the same place, shaking his head in resignation.

"Nico, I don't think Aiden's driver lied to us. They don't go this way." Tara said.

"Soon, we will catch up with them. Take it easy." Nico said casually. His driving skill was also very good so he could go through rough roads without any problems.

Tara opened the car window and looked outside, "It's rare that I can enjoy a view like this. My clinic has been busy since the beginning of the year. Every now and then, I also have to help my grandfather. I'm very busy making money."

"So, you are very rich now? How about you accept me? I can warm your bed at night." Nico said jokingly.

"Ah! I'm just a small clinic owner. How could I possibly pay a general manager of Atmajaya Group? One day, I can only open a branch of my clinic or maybe open a hospital. But you will become president of the Atmajaya Group." Tara laughed at herself, "Nico, the network between us will get bigger and bigger. Will you still be friends with me later?"

"What are you afraid of? Are you afraid we won't have any more to talk about? Or are you afraid I will throw you away? I'm not like that. My uncle supports Anya for work. She wanted to become a parfumeur so he bought a Rose Scent for him, "What my uncle can do, I can do the same." Nico said firmly.

Tara shook her head, "Nico, I don't want to risk our relationship. Friendship can be love, but love cannot return to friendship. I don't want to lose my friends. Do you understand?"

In truth, Nico didn't know how he felt about Tara. He didn't know what love was. He just felt comfortable with her.

With Tara, he felt calm. There was no burden on his heart. But he didn't know whether this was love or not.

"I can't promise you anything. I can't be sure one day I won't change. But I am willing to treat you like my uncle loves Anya. But if that's what you want, we can just be friends." Nico casually said.

"Good!" Tara breathed a sigh of relief and immediately smiled.

Seeing Tara's smile filled with relief, it seemed like she really thought of Nico as a burden.

Nico turned his attention back to the road, but couldn't find Aiden's car at all.

As soon as he reached the top of the mountain, Tara glared at him, "They are not here. They cheat us."

"How could I possibly know that they really were going to the left?" Nico said irritably.

Meanwhile, Aiden was driving and led Anya to the top of the mountain. On the way, trees began to look lined up to form a forest, wild flowers all over the place and birds chirping loudly. Anya was enjoying all that while leaning her head against the car window. She closed her eyes as the wind blew her hair.

She forgot all the problems that had happened at the Atmajaya Family house and started humming.

After arriving at the top of the mountain, Anya again sent a message to the chat group.

Anya: "I've arrived at the top of the mountain. Where are you?"

Tara: "We are already at the top of the mountain, but a different mountain from you."

Nico: "We didn't want to interfere with your date, so we chose the opposite direction. We'll meet at five in the evening at the foot of the mountain."

Aiden replied with a voice message.

Aiden: "Looks like you need something to improve your intelligence."

Nico was so angry he couldn't say anything. But in the end, he could only take a deep breath. Indeed he had been fooled by his uncle's trap.

He could not deny what his uncle said.

Meanwhile, Tara had put her cell phone back on and was looking around her with sparkling eyes. Her grandfather studied herbal concoctions so she became interested in the field.

When they arrived at the top of the mountain, everything in that place was a treasure trove for her!

"Do you carry equipment in your car? Let's get some plants!" Tara said excitedly.

"Can't we just spend time relaxing and getting some fresh air?" Nico grumbled, but he still opened the trunk of his car.

"Wow! You brought complete equipment! Is this all for me?" Tara said happily.

"When I took the car in my garage, I saw this equipment. I thought you would want to use it so I brought it. No need to thank me!" Nico said proudly.

"I will take plants that can increase your intelligence!" Tara said, ignoring the words to make Nico even more annoyed.

Even though Nico wasn't interested in plants, he still followed Tara and walked towards the forest.

Aiden and Anya sat in the car. They did not come down right away because they saw a squirrel crossing the road carrying some grain with it. Seeing their car, the squirrel stopped for a moment and stared at them in confusion.

"Very funny!" Said Anya excitedly, "Can we catch it?"

"I will help you." Not knowing what was happening to him, Aiden suddenly offered to help her do something boring.

What's so cute about this squirrel? The squirrel wasn't funny at all.

He just wanted to do everything together with his wife…

They crept from two directions. However, the squirrel immediately ran quickly and climbed a tall tree.

Anya laughed when they failed to catch the squirrel. Her laughter was contagious, so Aiden chuckled too.

He embraced Anya's shoulders and Anya immediately leaned his head on Aiden's shoulder. They were enjoying the wind at the top of the mountain, feeling comfortable enjoying the scenery before them.

"Look over there. That's the Ferris wheel we've been on." Anya pointed in one direction so that Aiden would follow her point of view.

"I can't see it." Aiden said calmly.

Anya looked at Aiden in surprise, "Are you nearsighted?"

"Not. It seems my eyes are too uncomfortable today to look a little blurry." Aiden pulled Anya's body into his arms and kissed her forehead. Then, he kissed the tip of her nose and her tiny lips.

Anya's heart was beating fast, "Not here. There are a lot of people."

In that place, there weren't only them. Several people also went up and down the mountain.

"Let them see it. They can't forbid me to kiss my own wife." Aiden held Anya's face with both hands and kissed her deeper.

They stood on the mountain, under the blue sky and white clouds. The wind blew, caressed their bodies, while listening to the songs of the chirping birds. The city looked very small under their feet.

There was nothing important in that place, apart from the two of them.

There were only them…

Anya was stunned for a moment. She was intoxicated by Aiden's kiss and could not free herself from the magic that ensnared her. She hugged Aiden's body tightly and returned the kiss.

Every now and then, she could hear other people's footsteps. However, she didn't care anymore.

There were only the two of them there. The whole world only belonged to them...
