S31 186. Romantic Planet

Ava shook her head without thinking. “I don’t mind. We’ve already spent enough time together here. Do you mind?”

“Not really. Want to go there now? They’ll be surprised to see us.” Jeremy nodded lightly.

Ava sat up and smiled. “They should have turned off the GPS if they didn’t want to be tracked by us. And they should have borrowed a telescope in a different place.”

“And rent a campervan in a different place,” Jeremy continued, straightening his back. “Frank rarely lets his guard down. But earlier, I could even see their van clearly in the rearview mirror.”

“I can fit everything in the van, besides this chair. You can sit while you wait.” Jeremy moved the chair to the ground and made sure it was balanced.

“So how?” He put his hands on his hips and tilted his head. “Do you agree?”

Right after Ava nodded, Jeremy directed her towards a chair. “Then please enjoy the view here, My Lady. I won’t be long.”

“You’re asking me to watch you put things away?” Ava snorted in

amusement.

“I know that you like looking at me. I’m a charming object even though some people often call me stiff. But if you get bored, you can look up.” Jeremy pointed his index finger upwards. “There are more interesting views there.”

Ava looked up. After a blink, she straightened her head again. “I looking at you is more interesting. I’ve been looking at the sky long time.”
