"What's this key?" nala said while holding the key while frowning.
"Ah, I'd better keep it. Who knew it was useful, or maybe it had something to do with the secret of that annoying demon lord?" nala said while chuckling.
He then walked into his room, while behind the door, Zack looked as if he were staring at a picture of Laurie. A photo taken by him the first time they met at the Orphanage. In the photo, Laurie looks so beautiful and graceful wearing a floral pink dress. Adorable, just like the sweet smile she had when Zack first saw her that made her fall for him so much.
"Say people, love doesn't have to have. But I always thought those words didn't apply to me. Because to me, all the things I want must be had without exception. And that happens in my love story too. I thought it made a woman fall for me, it wasn't that hard, just like when I got what I wanted to have. But it turned out that things weren't as easy as I thought, and right now I'm so tormented by the games I made myself. Maybe this means, I have to understand the term love can not be forced? Ah, life is really driving me crazy, I can get anything I want but not with love? Love turns out to be so hard, and so complicated."
Zack then laid his body on the bed, then closed his eyes. Hoping that when he opened those eyes, he could forget the love and memories that were in his heart. Even though he knew, it was impossible. But at least, when his eyes closed, he did not feel the pain that was so heart-wrenching.

Meanwhile, Laurie and Alvaro seem to be resting at a hotel because Alvaro already feels very tired after driving his car for ten hours. They deliberately booked a room because Alvaro was worried that he would have to separate from Laurie. Alvaro is so possessive, but he still doesn't want to admit it as love.
Alvaro was sleeping so soundly on the sofa in the hotel room. While Laurie who was on the bed looked so anxious while looking at Alvaro with an annoyed look.
"Have he so casually slept like that. What does he think I am? He always made my heart break when he was with her but lightly acted so cute to me. Did he forget, he asked me to marry him after Zack's divorce. Then, he also asked me to go with him in order to avoid Zack. What is the name if not love? But he lightly said that he did all that just because he wanted to help me. Alright, then maybe I'm the overconfident one!" murmur Laurie.
He then broke his body and tried to close his eyes. But after almost an hour, he couldn't. His mind was so turbulent, for some reason it was hard to take his eyes off Alvaro. Laurie snorted in annoyance, then sat back on the bed and slowly got up from the bed, and approached Alvaro who looked so asleep. He then looked at the face so deeply, that without him noticing it as if a magnet was pulling him closer to the handsome face, then... CUPS...
A warm kiss landed on Alvaro's forehead. Laurie, who had just realized what she had done when she had placed her lips on Alvaro's forehead, immediately released her kiss, then moved away from Alvaro and returned to the bed.
"Gosh, Laurie. Why am I so stupid, what kind of woman am I who has dared to kiss a man who is not her husband. Oh no, why am I suddenly so insane like this? Am I really in love with her? God, why am I being like this? I wanted Alvaro to fall in love with me, but it was me who was in love with him! Gosh, it's better I sleep now than I'm getting sane!" murmur Laurie. He then tried to close his eyes, though it was difficult.

Alvaro wakes up when the alarm on his phone goes off. He then opened his eyes, then turned off the alarm and walked into the mendi room to clean his body that felt so sticky. Yes, yesterday when he had just arrived at the hotel he had indeed fallen asleep just like that, because he felt very tired.
After finishing the bath, Alvaro then approached Laurie who was currently sleeping. He sat on the side of the bed staring at the pretty face.
"Bidadiku," said Alvaro lirih while staring at the face of Laurie who was sleeping so soundly. For a long time, Alvaro stared at the beautiful face, making his heart so rumble. He could no longer endure the turmoil in his heart that brought him closer to Laurie, then slowly kissed her lips so warmly, a soulful kiss.
When Alvaro realized he had gone that far, he then pulled his face. 'Oh my God, what have I done!' inner Alvaro. Meanwhile, Laurie looked relieved.
"Emmhhhh... "
Hearing the sound coming from Laurie's lips, Alvaro got up from the bed, and pretended to walk towards the balcony.
"Good morning, Alvaro," Laurie said to Alvaro, who was pretending to play his phone.
"Good morning, Laurie. How do you sleep, you sleep well, right?"
Laurie nodded her head. "Yes, very good. It's just that suddenly it's like something's been bothering me to sleep."
"Something's bothering you about sleeping? What is Laurie?"
"Eitherway. It seemed like something was stuck in my face, even it felt really warm."
