"Shower yourself, Tasya?" asked Nathan moving closer. His eyes continued to stare straight at the figure of his wife who suddenly snatched a towel from the edge of the pool. Covering the part that Nathan was content to explore last night. "Are-you awake?" asked Tasya nervously. She had managed to overcome her embarrassment of noticing her husband just because of the memory of last night, but alas, the nervousness in her voice could not be masked. Duh! Stupid Tasya, why are you thinking so weirdly?

"What do you think?" Nathan was now in front of her. "Why do you keep looking down? Am I not interesting? Or is there something interesting down there?"

"Ah!" Tasya looked up quickly. "Nothing." She hurriedly shook her head.

"Um..." Nathan rubbed the tip of his chin. "Maybe mine is interesting to you?" "Nathan!" Tasya glared in disbelief.

"Did you call me 'darling' last night? Did you change?" asked Nathan, stifling a laugh. He grasped Tasya's free hand gently. She used the other to hold the edge of the towel just below her chest. Nathan then brought it to touch his own, which was already erect and begging for attention.

"If my face doesn't attract your attention, does mine?" Nathan asked as sensually as possible. The distance dwindled until in one fell swoop, the towel fell to the floor. Meanwhile, he had asked Tasya's hand to wipe his own once more. "This is the one that needs your attention right now."

"Ta-but," Tasya hadn't finished speaking, her voice cut off by a long, soft kiss. Nathan didn't give her the slightest breath.

In between kisses, Nathan said, "My manhood misses yours, Tasya. Can I put it in again?"

"Why can't I go with Mama, huh? Besides, my exams are done, Ronan!" Naina complained from the other end. Her face was scowling, lips protruding about five centimeters, and her eyes looked annoyed, as if she wanted to be near Tasya right away.

"Oma said you'll be swimming all day and happy doing anything at the hotel," Tasya replied with a furrowed brow. She wanted to laugh at Naina's adorable pouty face when she was sulking, but she knew that if she did, Naina would sulk even

more.

Even though she was apart from Naina, whatever happened to the child, she needed to know. Including something as trivial as Naina's return from school. She kept an eye on it because there was an underlying feeling that went beyond mere responsibility.

Tasya had a deep affection for Naina.

"Yeah, but it's different when Mama and Daddy are there." Naina cupped her face, still not willing to let go of her irritation. "When are you coming back?" The girl sighed softly, her eyes fixed intently on Tasya.

"I'll be back Sunday morning from here. Wait for Mama to come home."

"I've been waiting since yesterday!" Naina grumbled.

"Naina promised not to sulk like this," Nathan chimed in this time. He sat beside his wife, though he wanted to hug her, he refrained. Naina might get even more upset with both of them. It wouldn't be funny if they had to ask Mr. Jack to come here and bring Naina. It would ruin a week of quality time with Tasya that he had been enjoying with lots of wide smiles.

There was still plenty of time with Naina later. He had also promised to take the child on vacation after all her school business was finished. At least that decision was for their mutual benefit. More for Nathan's benefit, to be precise. He didn't want to be disturbed while he was with Tasya.

"Yeah, but I want to be with Mama. Daddy's so stingy," Naina said, still glaring in protest. "Why, huh? My exams are already over."

"There are still other exams, right?" Nathan guessed, not wanting to lose. He now held Tasya's phone. "Daddy promised that we'll go on vacation. Why can't you wait?"

Naina pouted, her gaze shifting to something else. "Daddy's no fun!" She abruptly ended the ongoing video call, causing Nathan to furrow his brow and sigh while returning Tasya's phone. "Upset, huh?"

"It's normal. Just let it be," Nathan smiled faintly. "She'll be fine later. Mama said they're still at the hotel, anyway. Naina likes the lunch menu there. It's close to the mall too, right? Besides, what's her favorite thing to do other than tire her feet walking around the mall?"

Tasya chuckled at Nathan's non-stop talking. She accepted Nathan's outstretched hand, though there was a question in her brow. "What do you want?"

"Someone complained yesterday about always staying inside, not going out. I want to take her somewhere. Interested?"

Tasya rolled her eyes in exasperation. "Who's the one who's always inside with me?"

Nathan burst into laughter. "And you keep teasing me."

He embraced Tasya's waist, bringing them closer. "Like right now." He leaned in, stealing a quick kiss on Tasya's already blushing cheek. "Nathan," Tasya tried to evade. "My outfit is decent, okay? No intention to tease you either."

"Really?" Playfully, Nathan squeezed Tasya's chest. Soft. Very soft. Tasya protected her chest with a proper bra and a loose-fitting shirt that didn't reveal her figure too much. She didn't like clothes that hugged her body too tightly. It felt suffocating, she said. A combination of faded green shirt and calf-length pants was her comfortable choice for today's activity.

Tasya couldn't remember how many times Nathan had invited her out of the Booba Glamping cabin, but it never happened. Only at night when Nathan invited her to enjoy the cold air of Puncak at a well-known cafe near the resort. They spent their lunch in a gazebo outside the resort area. It felt very private because the cabins were quite far apart.

The resort's menu was also diverse and all delicious. Tasya enjoyed it several times without getting bored. Her favorite was the Thai Squid Sour with warm sesame rice. Or Ramen with egg pieces and seaweed slices, perfect for dinner. The coffee? Oh, Nathan liked black coffee with a little sugar.

Private swimming pool facilities were also available. So, Tasya didn't die of boredom. But come to think of it, was Tasya fond of spending time outside? Hardly ever. Even if her feet stepped into a mall or shopping center, there was always something to do. In this case, Naina or Nathan asked her to buy something. Meeting her boss there was just for lunch.

"Nathan!" Tasya glared menacingly. "Come on, you said we were going out. If we stay here too long, I'm sure the bed will have both of us without anything else." She quickly removed Nathan's hand that still encircled her, along with her husband's earlier playfulness. She even gave a stern pat to express her annoyance with Nathan's antics.

But all her glaring just made him laugh more. No matter how many times she pushed his hand away, Nathan continued to pull Tasya back into his embrace. "But you like it, don't you?" he whispered softly. He even planted a quick kiss on Tasya's right temple.

"Yeah, yeah." Tasya chuckled. "Come on... Are we going out or not?"

"If we don't, will you be upset?" Nathan took a few steps forward, almost without Tasya realizing, she was following Nathan's movements, retreating systematically.

Tasya gently bit her lower lip. "It's a sunny day, Honey. Can we go to a strawberry place? I don't know where exactly, but we can look for it, right? We're on the edge of the forest."

Nathan grinned. "Sure, there's one. But why am I suddenly feeling lazy?"

He tidied up Tasya's hair that touched her cheek to behind her ear. His wife put on her owl glasses again, making Nathan roll his eyes in annoyance. "Take them off, will you?" Nathan softly removed the glasses so Tasya wouldn't wear them anymore.

"I can't see, Babe." Tasya wrapped her arms around Nathan's neck. "What if I fall?"

"Into my arms? I'd gladly catch you."

Tasya rolled her eyes in exasperation. "Don't take them off."
