I'll Teach You, Marianne.

Anne hugged Jack's body from behind so tightly that Jack felt like she was sticking her nails in him, when in fact Anne didn't even have long nails at all. She trimmed her nails short because she didn't want to hurt Christian's face or body.

"Jack, where do you really want to take me? I'm scared."

"Oh my God, Christian is just a kid, Jack. You didn't mean to make him an orphan, did you?"

"Forgive me, God..."

All the chatter escaped from Anne's lips very loudly and was heard well by Jack, because she spoke right next to his ear, and after hearing all the chatter Jack did not intend to slow down the speed of the motorbike at all. Currently, Jack was taking Anne to explore the streets of Geneva with one of his favorite sport motorbikes produced by a large factory in Japan that was made especially for him. Jack wanted to take Anne to the places where he grew up when he was a child and reminisced.

"Don't close your eyes, look at the beauty of this city, baby," Jack shouted loudly. He was sure that at the moment Anne must be closing her eyes.

Anne paid no heed to Jack's words. "Lower the speed of your motorbike, then I'll open my eyes."

Jack chuckled. Anne's words were like a challenge to him. Because of that, Jack actually increased the speed of his motorbike which immediately made Anne stick to Jack's body. Countless of prayers had been said from her lips at this time. She regretted not getting into the car just a moment ago when she had finished eating her lunch at the restaurant, truly believing that Jack was a big disaster for her.

After driving at a speed of 120km/h for almost 30 minutes, Jack finally lowered the speed of his motorbike. He did this because now they had arrived at one of the destinations he had visited with Anne.

"We've arrived, baby, open your eyes," said Jack softly, patting the back of Anne's hand gently.

Anne actually already knew that the motorbike that Jack was driving had stopped, but because at this time her heart was still racing very fast, she still did not want to let go of her arms from Jack's body. Anne was still trying to neutralize herself, then after almost five minutes, she slowly loosened her arms from Jack's waist and opened her eyes slowly.

"Welcome to the Jet d'Eau."

Jack's words were clearly heard when Anne opened her eyes, Anne who was ready to get angry immediately screamed loudly.

"Jack...this is beautiful...!"

Jack smiled widely. "Of course, this fountain is one of the prides of the citizens of this town."

"Wow!"

Anne continued to chuckle in admiration when she saw the beauty of Lake Geneva in front of her. She really fell in love when she saw the sight in front of her at this time.

"The original fountain was smaller when it was built in 1886, and it wasn't until 1951 that the fountain took its exact position as it is today. Most of the year the fountain is turned on, except for freezing temperatures in winter."

Anne immediately turned to Jack who was standing beside her. "Are you serious? All year long?"

Jack nodded his head slowly. "Yes, a lot of new visitors who come to this place immediately fall in love like you. That's why the Geneva city government decided to turn on this fountain all year round except during winter when it is not possible to turn on the fountain engine, right?"

Anne smiled when she heard Jack's words. She felt what Jack said was very reasonable, because of that Anne chose not to comment on what Jack said. Anne had been hypnotized by the sight in front of her eyes. The white swans swimming over the lake made Anne even more fascinated. She really wanted to jump into a clear lake if she didn't see a prohibition board to enter the lake because the water currents below were quite fast.

"Would you like some ice cream?" Jack asked quietly, breaking Anne's thoughts.

Anne immediately turned to Jack. "Ice cream?"

Jack nodded. "Yes, ice cream. We can enjoy this amazing view while enjoying ice cream."

"Seriously? Can I have ice cream?"

"Of course you can, as long as the food is clean and hygienic, I won't prohibit it, especially when I also enjoy the ice cream."

The smile on Anne's face brightened. She then grabbed Jack's hand and immediately took him away from where they were standing now to go to an ice cream shop which was not far from where they were at the moment. She gripped his hand tightly, running even felt fast enough for a woman's size and this made Jack even more aware that Anne was very different from the women he had known before. 

Because in the past, whenever Jack dated the girls introduced to him, Jack never saw anyone who looked like Anne. Those who would be overjoyed when they see the fountain, who shouted loudly, calling the geese with the call 'kitty' and who want to run around hunting for ice cream whose shop was clearly in front of their eyes. All the girls that Jack knew before always refused to be invited to go to public places. They all generally chose fancy restaurants in hotels or rooftop buildings, including his ex-fiancé, Sophia Higgins, who was always angry when the food she ate did not meet expectations, which in the end would make Jack spend more money to spend the woman on various luxury items as a form of apology.

But the opposite happened to Anne. Even now when Anne had become Mrs. Clarke, she had never asked Jack for anything. So finally, Jack had to recruit a fashion stylist to buy all the clothes and luxury items for Anne, because she did not want to buy them herself.

"Do you really like that?"

Anne wiped her lips from the remaining ice cream with a tissue quickly. "Ah, you don't know good food."

"Food? Since when did ice cream become a type of food?"

"Then what do you call it? Drinks? Never mind, don't spoil my mood, Jack. Just enjoy your almost melted ice cream," said Anne angrily.

Jack chuckled in amusement. Not long after that, he also focused on his ice cream, which was almost melted. Jack smiled as Anne threw the rest of the bread crumbs she was holding into the lake for the swans to eat, which were approaching where they were sitting. Jack's eyes stared at Anne lovingly. Jack was grateful that a day like this had finally arrived in his life. After all the sadness and loneliness that had tortured him for three years, finally happiness had arrived in Jack's life.

Without Anne knowing, Jack threw away his ice cream, and immediately threw the rest of the bread crumbs in his hand into the lake. Suddenly, Jack hugged Anne tightly from behind.

"Don't go out of my life again, Anne. Don't torture me anymore. Someday if you are angry with me, you better hit me or slap me to satisfy yourself, but please don't go away again. I'll be crazy if you disappear from my life again." Jack whispered softly behind Anne's ear with his arms wrapped around Anne's slim waist.
