Rick cried so much when his memories came back. He then remembers about Tiana and their relationship. That's why Tiana and Mond couldn't look at him in the face. There are also memories of them being together when he and Tiana did video call while he was on abroad. It comes back all the memories and together with it is the pain from those experienced.

Then one time he went home without telling Tiana because he wanted to surprise her. While he was walking towards the house of Tiana. He saw both of them at the road not far from their house. When he saw them he was hiding and just watching them. His heart was broken as watching them both look's very happy.

He left for an hour because he couldn't take it anymore the pain watching them both very happy. He was running while crying and didn't care his surrounding. He was running and said,

**"WHY.......WHY NOT ME WHO CAN MAKE YOU HAPPY?!!WHY??!!"**

He was so desperate that he wanted to die. He saw a bus running fast towards in the road where he was standing. He ran towards the bus to make himself died by hitting with the bus. He was so determined to kill himself that time. But when he was almost hit by a bus he closed his eyes.

He opened his eyes without knowing why he was in the road. When he observed the sorrounding he has no idea but this was the road in going to his rented house. He didn't remember it all why he was there and because he didn't remember he just went home.

All of it came back to the memories of Rick. He feels pain of course, he really loves Tiana so much. But after regaining his memories when he first saw Tianan and Mond looked so happy. He decided to forget all the feeling he has for her. He accepted that the pain she's giving to Rick is enough.

He's showing gratitude to everyone in the forest for what they've done to him. He asked for forgiveness for the troubled he gave to them. But the king Pryr replied to Rick.

**"No..it's fine Rick. We love you because you are just like a human from before. Knows how to share love and knows how to appreciate small things. Do you agree, Jea?"**

Jea was blushing after the king asked her. Then Rick is confuse why all the people there is teasing Jea. Some of them smiling while some of them are shouting. Rick have no idea but when he look at Jea. She turned her back and then the crowd start shouting again.

The moment suddenly turn into teasing. All are laughing and Rick rides on it because he seems understand what's happening. He suddenly hold the hand of Jea and the reaction of Jea is so exaggerated. She pull her hand and slap the hand of Rick. Rick act's like he has no idea, he act's like he feel's so much pain because of that slap. Jea saw it that Rick is just exaggerating as well. She stare on Rick and said,

**"Don't be such a baby, you know it's not that strong."**

Rick want to tease Jea so he's holding his hand and showing with too much pain. Jea seems bother of it and she seems want to believe it so Rick said.

**"Yeah, for you it's not because you're a fairy but remember I'm just a human being,"**

Rick still push the act and he see in Jea's eyes that she's began to think that it's true. Jea seems can't rest assure and start to show a face that being worried. She's looking in different ways but even though all people there teases. She then hold the hand of Rick and said with a serious face.

**"Really? Okay I'm sorry, I was just annoyed."**

When Jea start holding the hand of Rick. Rick look's Jea in the face while Jea is busy looking the hand of Rick and asking if it's fine now. Jea notice Rick is not replying her and everyone seems quiet. Jea slowly moves her eyes up without rising her face and then she see's Rick starring at her face. She has no idea what will be her reaction now that she knows what Rick is doing. Everyone look's so serious and like excited for what's going to happen later. Jea's eyes look in the other way because she's watching the people sorround them. When she return her eyes to see what Rick is doing. Rick is looking at her eyes and said,

**"You really are so beautiful Jea."**

Jea is not ready with that words of Rick. She feel's embarrass about it and it became more embarrassing when all the people seems enjoying what's happening. Jea stand up and Rick hold her hand immediately. But the king suddenly talk,

**"Oh, it's like in the movie."**

Then all of them are laughing but Jea can't take it anymore. She pull her hand strongly and Rick let it go. Jea run fast to everyone and feels annoyed with them. Rick stand up and run towars to Jea. When both of them are becoming far to the people, the king shouted.

**"GO FOR IT RICK, IF IT'S YOU IT'S FINE TO HAVE A HUMAN IN OUR FAMILIES."**

Everyone laugh and said the same like the king.

**"GO...RICK"**......
