In Bayton City, the two of them visited many places. Both intentionally and unintentionally, Frederick brought Alicia to places that made a deep impression in her mind, regardless of good or bad. He had even brought her to the hotel where Jeremy had abandoned her back in the day. Alicia was unperturbed. Other than lamenting about the past, her feelings towards all the places had become blurry. However, as they rode in the cable car to the top of the mountain to watch the sunset, she huddled in Frederick's arms, her smile full of happiness. Watching the brilliant red glow of the sun gradually disappear into the horizon, Alicia felt a strange sadness as the last glimmer of light faded away.

"Beautiful sceneries always seem particularly short-lived..."

She's right! Peace and happiness in life are momentary.

Frederick lowered his head and gently planted a kiss on her hair. His lips curled into a faint smile.

"However, it is its short-lived presence that makes it precious. The more beautiful it is, the more precious it should be! Ally, I wish I could freeze this moment in time. I want to hold you in my arms, forever..."

She felt warm in his embrace. Eventually, he hugged her tighter.

She would definitely recover, right? She has to! She can't forget him!

He sincerely prayed to the heavens!

"From now on, you can bring me here once a year! Next time, we can visit earlier to climb up the mountain! If you didn't need to go back a day earlier, we wouldn't have needed to ride the cable car! Anyway, time doesn't have to stop. Life should go on in wonderful continuity."

She felt secure with him by her side. There was nothing to be afraid of.

As Alicia gently closed her eyes, Frederick's heart squeezed. The truth burned in the back of his throat. The reason for their early return was because he suddenly recalled his appointment for his contraceptive injection. He had been holding out on her for days These days, he had been finding all kinds of excuses to refuse her. He had already lost control earlier that day. He knew that by the time she recovered, his excuses and selfcontrol would have already reached their limits.

However, when he opened his mouth, Frederick

changed the topic.

"Ally, am I engraved on your heart? What if one day you fall ill and hurt your head. What if you can't think anymore, nor speak, will you... forget everything between us?"

Giggling, Alicia raised her hand and poked his forehead. "Have you been watching too many dramas? Why would I have amnesia? I am not vegetative, and I don't have a brain injury!"
