Chapter 120: Mountains?
My gaze was fixed on her as I saw a teardrop slide through her face. My head shook as I quickly wiped that drop of tear from her face.
“You know what?” I whispered, as my hand patted her cheeks. But her body jolted as soon as she felt my pat.
Clarity returned to her eyes as he looked at me and said, “What?”
I slightly smiled as my attention was fixed on that big watery eye that was looking at me with confusion. “I told you before, and I am telling you now. You don’t have to remember those memories of yours. Everything is in the past and you are living in the present. Just think about the people around you, who don’t want to see you sad. And I am one of them.”
While my hand was still resting on her cheeks, I wiped a teardrop from the corner of her eyes with my thumb. However, my eyes were still fixed on her face.
“So, don’t let your past affect you. Live in the present and think about the future,”
I patted her cheeks again and pulled back my hands. While she looked lost as her eyes were fixed on me.
“Live in the present and think about the future?” She mumbled, and a slight smile formed on her face.
She looked at me and slightly nodded and said, “Thank you,” while a smile bloomed on her face.
I don’t know why, but I also felt happy when I saw that blooming smile. Somehow, it felt like someone had lifted some weight off my chest.
“You want any more beers?” I asked jokingly.
“Sure, why not.” She energetically replied and pressed the button again.
Her actions baffled me. I just asked about the beer to cheer her mood, but she really wanted to have more. Just a few seconds had passed, Nia came back with four cans of beer.
I shook my head in disbelief when I saw Tanya grabbing all four cans in her hands and playfully waving goodbye to Nia, with the cans in her hand.
Even Nia was dumbfounded. Her face turned awkward as she turned to look at me and then walked away.
As she placed all the cans on her lap, she turned her face to look at me. “Do you want any?”
Her brows were raised, as she had an innocent look on her face. I nodded and grabbed a can from her lap and chugged it in. All this while, she had a dumbfounded expression on her face. I think she didn’t expect me to grab the can directly from her lap.
As I finished the beer, I looked at her and asked, “You like drinking, don’t you?”
She nodded unconsciously when she heard me while chugging the beer. After she finished one can, she looked at me and nodded energetically. “I really like it,”
Her mischievous side returned as she replied to me. Somehow, I felt relaxed when I saw her smiling. I was scared that after drinking, she would again remember her past.
But everything seems to be alright. A sigh escaped my lips as my gaze drew to the window.
With my eyes fixed on the window, I asked, “When will we reach?”.
“Maybe in four hours,” she said.
I quickly turned to ask, “Are there still four hours left?”. But once again, her mouth was filled with beer as she held the last can in her hand.
She nodded as she gulped the beer.
Honestly, I am really curious about the destination. But I know that she won’t tell me anything.
I sighed and closed my eyes as I leaned on the soft seat as I said, “I will sleep for some time. Don’t wake me up,” and I slightly smiled as I finished my sentence.
But as soon as I finished my sentence, I felt a soft punch on my shoulders as I heard her voice, “Fine, sleep well,”
But as soon as she said that, the sound of a buzzer reached my ears. I cracked my eyes to see that Nia was carrying a few more cans of beer with her.
I shook my head and closed my eyes to get some sound sleep. The whole day was too messed up for me. After I got discharged, this woman dragged me along to spend the vacation with her. I am thankful to Eve that I had the Inventory, otherwise; I am not sure what would have happened.
But thanks to Tanya, my mind was fully occupied with her. As I thought about her, her big breasts flashed into my mind. Honestly, they are huge. I drifted off to sleep while thinking about her.
Suddenly, someone shook me heavily. I slowly opened my eyes to see it was Tanya. For some seconds my eyes were fixed on Tanya because I just had a dream where I and Tanya were making out. Just as I was about to kiss her soft pink lips, my entire world shook and I opened my eyes. I even felt a slight headache by abruptly waking from sleep.
I grunted slowly as I sat straight, but I felt some sticky sensation on the side of my lips. I suddenly realized that it was my drool. After quickly wiping away my sleeves, my eyes focused on Tanya, who was looking at me curiously.
“What happened?” I asked her.
“We’re almost there,” she said as she smiled.
“Oh,” I mumbled, while my eyes focused on the window. Suddenly, I realized that the plane was descending vertically. I could also see some mountains.
I don’t know where we are, but it is looking good. Green forest surrounded the mountains, while some peaks were surrounded by clouds.
“It’s beautiful, right?” My gaze was fixed on those visible peaks as Tanya’s voice reached my ears.
I don’t know why, but I had a weird feeling that I had seen it somewhere. But as I was trying hard to remember, someone patted me on my shoulders.
My body shook, as it was too sudden, and I was really absorbed in the thoughts. I quickly turned around to see that Tanya was looking at me curiously.
“What happened?” I grumbled. I was really trying hard to remember, but suddenly she disturbed the momentum.
“How’s it?” She asked while a slight smile was still visible on her face.
I nodded as my gaze drew back to the window again. This time, however, I didn’t see mountains, just some highrise buildings that gave the impression of being in a city. I could feel that this is a big city. Perhaps that’s why there were so many people on the plane.
“Where are we?” I turned to look at Tanya, her gaze was also fixed on the window.
Her attention shifted to me, but before she could open her mouth, the whole plane shook slightly. I think we landed at the airport. And as expected, there was the announcement of the arrival in Arase city.
‘Arase City?’ It was the first time I heard this name. I thought we were on Alternate Earth, so the name could also be the same. But this was a completely original name.
My attention was drawn to the area around where everyone stood up to leave. And in this area, many gazes were fixed on Tanya, who nodded at them.
I could see reverence and worship in their eyes as they looked at her, but a few hostile eyes were also locked on me.
I shook my head, as I also stood up along with Tanya. Just as she stood up, many people paved the way for her to leave. She smiled and walked towards the exit while I followed her. But just as I walked, I felt many gazes were fixed on me. As if everyone is scrutinizing me.
I didn’t mind; I am used to these types of gazes, as no one could compare to me.
As I followed Tanya’s footsteps, my gaze drifted towards Nia, who was standing at the gate with a smile on her face as she saw off the passengers.
As if she felt my gaze, her attention shifted to me, then to Tanya, and she slightly nodded at her.
My eyes drifted to Tanya, who also nodded and left the plane, but just as I was about to leave, I heard a soft voice.
“We will meet again,”
It surprised me, as I spun my head to see Nia was smiling at me. My brows were arched, but I also politely replied, “Sure,”
Maybe it was my illusion, but I felt that she had a different kind of smile when she was seeing me off. I shook my head as I stepped out of the gate of the plane.
But soon as I came out, I was welcomed by a chilly breeze. Unconsciously, I inhaled the fresh air. I didn’t want to leave the spot, but Tanya’s voice suddenly caught my ear.
“What are you doing?”
Her voice broke my reverie as my gaze quickly shifted to her. Tanya’s smiling face appeared in my sight.
