On the way, the both of them walked silently, lost in their own thoughts.

Turning down the corridor, Danica held his hand and led him to a short parterre. All of a sudden, she jumped and held onto Fredericks' neck. "Frederick, won't you give me a piggy-back ride? You used to carry me while we were young! I miss those days, can you carry me for a while?" She tried to jump on his back, a braid of her hair falling on his shoulders. Frederick immediately stiffened without him realizing it.

'Hubby, if I'm gone one day... would you take care of my mother on account that we're married?'

'Who knows how many women you've slept with outside! You're filthy! I said, don't touch me!'

Holding Danica's hand, Frederick turned around and pushed her away. "Stop it, you're already grown up! Why give you a piggy-back ride when there's nothing wrong with you?"

"It's fun! You can give me a piggy-back ride even if there's nothing wrong with me!" There were many men who carried their partners on the streets too.

"Frederick..." Danica pulled at his sleeves coquettishly, sounding like she was pleading with him.

"Stop it! I'm not used to this kind of stuff." Frederick replied firmly. He was obviously unwilling to do this.

At that moment, Danica understood what he meant.

Frederick's tone softened when he saw her disappointed face. "If we're seen, Chet would have a lot on his plate again! Why not save the hassle and use that money to give you a treat?" Through his words, he was implying that they had to watch their images.

Danica was all smiles the next second. "Okay! Next time, you're not to reject me if we're behind closed doors or I'll get mad!"

Frederick didn't answer. Coincidentally, his phone rang and he used this as an excuse to leave.
