     Jaka reminded Bill that he already stayed with him for 8 days and as he was now strong enough; Jaka thought to bring him to the main road and went to the police station to report Bill. He was sure that a rescue team was searching for him!! Bill was quiet when he heard this and weakly he said he wanted to stay two more days as he really enjoyed staying with Jaka. "This is paradise for me, I did not want to go!", Bill said. But Jaka reminded him that his family must be panicking and worry and perhaps his partner or children were anxiously waiting for his return!! Bill was sad now and lowered his head. He told Jaka that he did not remember his identity still, he did not remember whether he was married or having children yet but he was happy being with Jaka.

       Jaka told him that actually he wanted to be with Bill if possible as long as they could but he tried not to be selfish and trying to put himself in the position of Bill's family!! Bill finally agreed to go down and finding out his real identity and his family. That day they did not go far but swimming in the creek, laying down on the grass. They just lied there naked hugging each other and enjoying themselves and soon they were kissing each other and shared their passions in the open air!! Full of lust, Bill used his saliva to smear his penis then started to fuck Jaka at the back. Jaka posed like a dog being fucked from behind by Bill at the river bank. When they finished, they clean their bodies in the creek again!! They were really happy enjoying their romance in that remote area!! Somehow a pair of eye; yellowy greenish glow like marble eyes watching them from behind a thick bush!!

          The next day when Jaka was busying cooking their lunch, suddenly he heard foot steps from a group of people. They were the rescue team whom were trying to locate Bill for the past few days. Jaka felt sorry for them and guilty for not pushing Bill to go sooner climbing down the mountain. Jaka checked the rescue team identity before let them talked with Bill. Bill was reluctant in the beginning to go with the rescue team. They stayed for lunch with Jaka and Bill. After lunch Bill still refused to go down with them until Jaka agreed to go along with him. There were five people with the rescue team, together with Bill and Jaka they walked down the mountain slowly which took more nearly three hours. Bill silently said good bye to the place he called paradise before he left! Finally they reached Cipanas resort where one of the men made a phone call on his mobile phone.

           Several cars ware waiting for them including some journalists. They took pictures of Bill and tried to interview him but he refused to talk with them. The police interviewed Jaka as the formality should. After that Jaka had to accompany Bill who was still refused to be separated with Jaka. He was liked a frightened child, so Jaka reluctantly keep him company. Lucky Jaka brought along his id and his atm and a few clothes in his back pack. Somehow he still remember to ask Bill to put on his underwear so he won't be embarrassed or got into trouble on his way down from the mountain. During his stay with Jaka, as Bill only has one underwear; he seldom had used his underwear but walking around in short only!!

          In Jakarta, Bill's family were waiting for him. His parents were there and also his wife, Louise. Bill looked shocked as his wife embraced him sobbing!! He found himself very awkward with his wife but somehow softened when his mother embraced him. They introduced themselves to Jaka. They thanked Jaka for saving Bill and looked after him and then tried to give him some money but Jaka refused. Jaka knew that it was time to say good bye to his new found lover and did not to be with them any longer as it may saddened him more. He said good bye and shook his hand with Bill then left. Jaka steeled himself to keep moving after seeing the sad look from Bill as he said good bye but he forced himself to keep walking towards the lift when lots of people who seemed like journalists coming out from the lift.

      Jaka took a bus to Bogor then another bus to Cipanas and then decided to stay over night in a cheap motel as it was too late to climb the mountain. The next day he shopped his daily necessities before climbing up and returned to his hut. When he reached home he felt empty and his mind was full of Bill. He thought about his first love who was forced to leave him and married a woman and now he was alone again. He cursed himself cause he liked a fool, easily fall in love with someone then have to be separated once more!! Tears wells in his eyes. Jaka sighed and boiled some water and put some sweet potatoes in the burning woods!! He changed his clothes and decided to busy himself with the garden and let his chook free. Lucky all his chook still there not stolen by panthers or other animals!! He tried to hum his favourite song from Daniel Sahuleka and thought bitterly as that song actually described his feeling with Bill every night they slept together. The song titled, "Don't Sleep Away This Night" that goes like this:

Tomorrow's near, never I felt this way

Tomorrow, how empty it'll be that day

It tastes a bitter, obvious to tears that I hide

To know that you're my only light

I love you, oh I need you

Oh, yes I do

Don't sleep away this night my baby

Please stay with me at least 'till dawn

It hurts to know another hour has gone by

And every minute is worthwhile

Oh, I love you

How many lonely days are there waiting for me

How many seasons will flow over me

'Till the emotions make my tears run dry

At the moments I should cry

For I love you, oh I need you

Oh, yes I do

Don't sleep away this night my baby

Please stay with me at least 'till dawn

It hurts to know another hour has gone by

And every minute is worthwhile

It makes me so afraid

Don't sleep away this night my baby

Please stay with me at least 'till dawn

It hurts to know another hour has gone by

The reason is still I love you

          In the hotel where Bill and his family stayed, Bill was asked for an interview but refused by him. His parents and wife represented Bill talking to the reporters.
