AFTER half an hour, Anthony returned, pushing the trolley full of their food. 
"Let's eat now, my love."
Orcel nodded at him with a smile. 
They are happily eating, and they are feeding each other. Then they kissed each other too. And the happiness they feel can be seen on their faces. 
After they ate, they immediately went out, and Anthony took Orcel for a tour of the beautiful scenery inside the resort. 
"Wow, Anthony. It's beautiful here; for me, it's a paradise; maybe when you made this place, you were super in love; it's very romantic, and the ambience makes you feel good."
Because of what Orcel said, Anthony's mood and the impression on his face suddenly changed. because she reminded him of the woman who cheated him. 
Orcel noticed this."Anthony, did I say something you didn't like?"
Anthony did not answer her. Because his mind was running to the woman who had made his heart stone for a decade. 
"Sorry, if I said something you don't like, can you take me to the fair?" she asked as she immediately walked away from him. 
Anthony came to his senses when he saw that Orcel was quite far away. He immediately chased her."My love, wait." He held her by the hand."Sorry, you didn't say anything bad; I just remembered something because of what you said."
Orcel smiled bitterly at him."It's okay, please take me to the fair now." Orcel wants to scold herself because she acted nonsense, but she doesn't understand why she felt hurt when Anthony didn't answer her. 
Anthony feels that Orcel is sulking."My love, I will take you, but let's talk first. I see that you are sulking with me."
"Anthony, I'm not upset with you; I'm just hurt by what I saw earlier. Please take me first."
"No, my love, let's talk about it first; whatever you saw in me, I will explain it to you. Please, listen to me. I don't want this to be the start of what we don't understand. Let's go there on the rock; there is a nice seat there." He grabbed her palm and guided her to the place where he said it was. 
Orcel didn't object. 
When they sat down, Anthony didn't let go of Orcel's palm, and then he started explaining. You are right, my love, in what you said when I built this resort with the woman I loved more than my life."
Something seemed to pierce Orcel's heart when she heard Anthony said. 
"This is where we built a happy dream, a happy family," she said. "When it ends building this resort, we will live here, and the two of us will manage." But everything she said was false. It ends when she leaves me without saying that at least, hey man, I will leave you. Take care of your own life. At least that's what he said, but she just left me like that. But I also know why she left me—because he went with another man. It would be okay with me; I accept it. But what I can't accept is that he traded me for my friend. I hate them for what they did to me!" The bitterness was still present in his voice, but he no longer felt pain in his heart. He knew why because this woman with him healed his heart. 
Orcel felt the pain of what Anthony said, so she hugged him. "Sorry!"
Anthony returned Orcel's hug, then he continued to talk. "When she left, my mother accompanied her; she also left my father and not only my father but also his son; she went with another man even though she was of an older age. Since then I hate women. And no woman can come close to me. They told me that my heart turned to stone with the fire. My dad told me not to lock my heart and to try to love again. My answer to him is Daddy, I won't love any woman anymore because my heart is closed. But when you came in, you messed up my heart and mind. When I saw your smile, I said to myself. I'll stop whatever I feel for you, but you're stubborn, and you're trying to enter my heart. I don't know, I just told myself that this girl is really stubborn, but this stubborn girl is the one who will open my heart, and she entered my quiet world suddenly, and more when I tasted your sweet lips, my whole life was going crazy because of you." He caressed her lips. "My love, you have returned my colorful life now, and the past is already gone because of you. I love you so much, Orcel."
"Anthony, are you okay?"
"What do you mean, I'm okay, my love?"
"Because the trapped resentment in your chest has been released now."
"Yes, my love, I feel better now, and I thank you so much, my love. The only thing I want from you now is that you don't leave me, my love, because I can take it. Then I was hurt so much, but I will be more hurt if you leave because I love you more than she does. "Promise me your love; don't ever leave me!"
"Of course I'm not crazy if I do that; it's better to be crazy with your love. Promise, Anthony, I will never leave you. I'll be here by your side until we grow old."
"Go ahead and prove to me what you said."
Orcel raised an eyebrow at what he said."What do you want proof of? You got it, didn't you?"
Anthony smiled first. "Just kiss me with all your heart, my love; that is enough for me."
"Hmp, that's all." She gave him a kiss full of love on his lips."I love you so much, Mr. Anthony Victorino, a.k.a. Mr. Grumpy. Do you know that every time you tell me that in your dream Miss Casino exists, I always do it and I say it to myself? One day my dreams will come true, and now that dream is happening now. Because now I kiss you for real now. Can I kiss you one more time, please?"
Anthony laughed."My love, nothing will stop you from kissing me; next time don't ask; if you want to kiss me, just do it, my love, because now you are mine and I am yours. But now I will kiss you like this first." He gave her a sweet kiss. 
Orcel responded that they fed their lips. Then their lips parted as they ran out of breath. 
"I've loved you all my life, Miss Orcel Ello Casino."
"I love you forever, Anthony."
Anthony touched her cheek."My love, you already know me, and my family but you. I don't know anything about you. So, tell me, who's Orcel Casino?"
Orcel stared at him. His eyes were pleading, and she smiled. "Alright."
"I will listen even if it takes us until tomorrow here, my love." He tightened his grip on her palm. 
Orcel sighed. In truth, she really doesn't want to talk about her life. But because it was the request of a man who loved her and he was right, she knows his life and the family."I left. Because I didn't like what my father did, he remarried. Well, it would be okay if he married to a single woman, but she had a family. So, before they arrived from another country for their honeymoon, I left. and never coming back until now."
"Where are you from, my love? And why did you choose to work at the carnival? I think you're educated."
"We're in San Nicolas. Actually my father's running a business like this resort of yours."
Anthony thought. San Nicolas. Yeah, he knows there is a famous resort there. The Casino Resort He stared at her. 
Orcel nodded as he agreed. 
"Wow! You're from a wealthy family. But why did you choose to work at the carnival? You can work in Manila."
"They easily find me, not at Carnaval, because we move from place to place."
Anthony nodded."You hide smartly, my love. For me, you did the right thing. We met and fell in love with each other. But they are still looking for you until now."
"Maybe, maybe not, because a year is fast now."
"Aren't you planning to show them? You're just around the corner, my love."
Orcel shook her head. She is happy with her life now. even if it's hard to do. 
"But still, they are your family. How about our wedding? Give them an invitation or we can go to them, please. "I want you to have a happy family on both sides, huh?" He held her face with his two hands. And he smacked her on the lips several times. as he begged her with his kiss. 
Orcel smiled at what he did. She just nodded at his wish. 
"Yes!" Anthony shouted again, and he kissed her lips again.
