MARK's POV

I admit I really miss her. She's with me yet it feels like we're disconnected. I knew her hidden agenda, to make me hate her but I acted cold towards her because I am guilty. Every time Cassie calls me, I can hear the longing in her voice. She misses me and she loves me. It gives pain in my heart and I am asking myself, why have I forgotten the love that I have for her? All I know now is that, I love this silly woman with me and I am ready to fight for her but she's not that willing to fight for me so I finally made up my mind, I will choose Cassie like what Guila wanted but let me have this chance first and be real. I know this is wrong but still I want to ask her...

"Can we just be real now? Let's just end this tour with being true to ourselves. Just one day and one night, can you be mine for awhile?"

She's not responding and still her back is facing me.

"We're the only people here, no staffs, no executives, no one can recognize us, well I really hope but as what I have researched, people here know how to keep secrets. I know, this is crazy but..." I said with my eyes teary but I stopped when she turns around and her tears are flowing already. I continued and looked straight into her eyes, "I miss you so bad Guila." And there my tears escaped my eyes.

"After this, I promise, I will stop," I said even it hurts me. "Can I hug you?" I asked.

She nods yes. FINALLY! I ran to her and embraced her tight.

"I love..." I mumbled but she stopped me.

"Sshhh. Stop. I don't want to hear those words," she said but I disobeyed her.

"I love you," I said.

"F*ck you," she reacted so cute. She smiled and of course I wiped those tears on her pretty face. I then cupped her face.

"I would like to remind you, no kiss," she warned.

"What the heck? What's the point of getting real?" I sniffed and wiped my tears.

"NO!" her face is so serious. Okay, no kiss.

"Okay... I would like to ask you a question, you must be real okay?" I said.

"I am not interested to answer your question."

"Why?"

"Because I know what you're going to ask."

"And what's it?"

"I don't want to go into it. Can't you see? This place is so beautiful so let's just enjoy!" she exclaimed and ran to the island's hotel. She's still not getting real.

Well anyway, she's right. The view is so breathtaking and really you can feel so much privacy because only few people are here. Maybe less than ten guests and these guests probably don't know who we are. Well I really hope.

We have separate rooms but frankly I want us to stay in one room, I mean I missed her a lot. She didn't say yes about my idea but when she allowed me to hug her, I assume it's a yes.

I showered and changed into white sando and short. I knocked at her room.

"Guiloves, are you still there? Let's have lunch!"

She suddenly opens the door and bam, I was mesmerized for seconds. She's glowing in her white mini dress.

"Why are you wearing white?" she asked.
