After their lunch, they all headed to the zoo. There were so many animals and birds to see. New happily fed the birds with one hand, and they soon came across a polar bear enclosure.

Gun teased New with a smirk, “New, that bear totally looks like you. See? He likes ice, you like ice, and he’s all white, just like you.”

New laughed. “Oh, really? If I’m the polar bear, then you must be the monkey,” he pointed at a monkey swinging from the trees.

Gun laughed. “Being a monkey is great! I can climb trees easily, escape anyone, and no one can catch me.”

New grinned mischievously. “Oh yeah? Let’s see about that!” He started chasing Gun, who darted away, running around the zoo while laughing.

New mom called out, “Hey, you two, stop running around and come see the rest of the animals!”

New pouted but stopped chasing Gun, following the group as they continued exploring the zoo and feeding the animals. After spending some time at the zoo, they decided to visit another area. Suddenly, New noticed a cable car ride. His eyes lit up with excitement.

“Tar! Can we ride those?” he asked, pointing at the cable cars.

Tay glanced at the cable cars and shook his head. “No. Last time you got stuck on one.”

New waved off his concern. “That was just an accident. It’s not like that’s going to happen again. And this time, you’ll be with me, so no worries. Let’s go, please?”

Tay sighed but nodded, and everyone decided to join them. The cable cars could fit four people each, but Tay didn’t want to ride with anyone else. He and New got into one car, while the others split into groups of four. As they started the ride, New leaned close to Tay.

“Tar, take a picture!” New requested.

Tay shrugged. “You take one yourself.”

New pouted. “But you’re better at taking pictures! Let’s take a selfie together—it’ll be a beautiful memory we can look back on when we’re old.”

Tay couldn’t resist New’s smile and took a picture of them together, capturing the moment. Suddenly, the cable car shook a little, making New grab onto Tay in alarm.

“What was that?” New asked nervously, holding on tighter.

Tay looked around, calm as ever. “It’s nothing. Just some wind. It’s normal in the mountains. Relax and enjoy the ride.”

New nodded, trying to calm down. After the ride finished, Tay brought everyone to a famous shopping mall nearby.

New, curious, asked, “Why’d you bring us here, Tar?”

Tay simply replied, “Don’t ask questions. Just buy whatever you want.”

New beamed with excitement. “Okay!” He and the others headed inside, shopping for clothes, with Tay paying for everything. He even picked out a special outfit for both himself and New.

After dinner, they returned to the hotel. Tay mentioned, “Tomorrow, we’ll go trekking.”

New, still smiling, said, “Today was so much fun, and tomorrow will be even better!” He giggled and hurried to bed, eager to sleep early so he wouldn’t be late for the next day’s activities.

However, Tay had a different plan. He climbed into bed beside New, kissed his forehead, cheeks, and finally his lips. Then, he started to unbutton New’s clothes.

New mumbled sleepily, “Tar… not now…”

Tay grinned mischievously, ignoring New's half-hearted protests as he continued unbuttoning his shirt, his lips trailing hot kisses down New’s neck. New, now fully awake, opened his eyes and pleaded softly, "Tar, please, not here… Everyone will see if you leave  mark, and I don’t want to be late tomorrow."
