40 Days, One Love
Answers

Alex, now misbehaving, headed straight for his oven and opened the oven door. Unknowingly, he was holding the hot pan with his bare hands.

"www"

The heat of the baking sheet made Alex's fingertips blister. Fortunately it is not too severe, just by soaking it in cold water will soon recover.

However, at that time there was Yua who still felt in the previous position. It was just that Yua sat down crouching with her arms around her knees. His head did not forget he buried it on his thighs.

Alex who saw Yua like that became confused about what to do. He also realized, it was wrong to take advantage of the weak side of Yua. But after this, it was pointless to silence each other, Alex thought.

Trying to explain what happened, Alex approached and sat on the floor facing Yua. But he was still confused as to what to say. Alex just waited until Yua raised her head.

...***...

After a long while, Yua finally raised her head. However, Alex instead fell asleep waiting for Yua to raise her head. Alex fell asleep like a meditator, but his head bent down.

"Liar!" yua Mumm.

Unwilling to let his tears fall once more, Yua quickly wiped them away. He also intends to go home and does not want to wake Alex.

However, the sound of his nose that he pulled because of his flowing snot woke Alex. The plan to go home doesn't seem like it's going to happen, seeing Alex wake up makes the plan collapse.

Yua then grabbed Alex's hand and was about to take him somewhere. They walked through the kitchen and towards the main room of the cafe, they continued walking until finally they reached the front entrance of the cafe.

Yua stepped on her right leg first and pulled her left leg until her body was now in front of the cafe and stood facing Alex who still felt in the cafe. Yua then grabs Alex's hand and pulls him out. However, his efforts were in vain. Alex did not want to move a step even though he had pulled as hard as he could.

Not stopping in one way. Yua goes back inside the cafe and pushes Alex out of the cafe. However, female power is not comparable to male calm. It wasn't Alex who was pushed, it was even her who was bouncing.

Yua then goes back outside the cafe and drags Alex by force.

Seeing how hard Yua wants to take him out of this cafe, Alex also suspects that Yua now remembers something about him.

If that's true, there's no point in Alex ignoring Yua anymore. That way Alex lowers his ego and obeys Yua's will.

Tok

Although Alex had relaxed his strength and moved his legs towards the outside of the cafe, Alex's steps were like being blocked by a glass wall right at the door of the cafe. Realizing that Alex still can not get out of this cafe no matter how he uses it, Yua finally gave up and admitted that what he saw was the real reality.

"It turns out to be true.." murmured Yua.

Not only that, the fact Alex can not get out of the cafe is also a justification for his memory that suddenly appeared. The memories he had forgotten upon returning to the future, the memories of time jumping.

...***...

"You.." said Alex but he did not continue.

"Not you. I'm Yua!" reply Yua. "But I'm Lily too!" continued.

As expected, Yua's memories had returned. But to convince her guess, some questions for Yua also come to Alex's mind.

"Who's Lily?" ask Alex with a plain face.

"My second name that Dad gave me, I mean Joe" Yua replied.

"Why are you sure?" ask Alex.

Looks like Alex doesn't need to ask any further, he's already found the answer. Yep... Yua had already remembered all the things as she jumped over the time to that 2000 year.

"Liar!" muttered Yua again. "Two days I've had a hard time finding out the truth and you've covered it" she said in a trembling voice.

"Better you go in first, we're talking up top!" said Alex asked Yua to go back in, especially when the air was very cold at night.

After clearly knowing Yua who had remembered all of that, Alex's cold nature faded. He returns to being the Alex that Yua once remembered.

...***...

Just now that they got to the top, Alex immediately apologized to Yua because he hid everything from Yua.

"I'm sorry... I don't think all the time jumpers will be able to remember what they did, but that's just a hypothesis. You are among those who can remember it, moments in the past. But I'd rather you don't remember" said the monohok Alex.

"Past time? For me it was only a few days ago" said Yua annoyed. "Is my existence meaningless?" keep Yua.

However, Yua said something quite ambiguous for Alex. What did Yua mean?, his existence when it was for whom?, for himself or for the future?. Alex was again silent, not unwilling to answer but did not know what to answer.

"Now that I'm back in the future without having the time to save my father, I'm even back in that empty house!. I'll soon be married to the little boy I was guarding at the time!" said Yua

"But it's your destiny!" answer Alex.

Hearing Alex say so easily that it was all her destiny, Yua hit Alex on both shoulders with her hands many times.

"My destiny?.... God gave me a chance to change it!" firmly Yua. "Why don't you want to help me?" yua asked back with a trembling voice.

Seeing Yua who constantly held herself back from crying made Alex want to hug her. Alex tried not to get carried away. But Yua instead pushed Alex and avoided him.

"Now it's better for me to go home, I need time to clear my mind" Yua said.

There is nothing else you need to know from Alex, because he already knows the answer. Yua picks up her phone from inside her bag located on top of the sofa and immediately orders a taxi online. After his order was received without saying goodbye to Alex, Yua went straight to the terrace of the cafe and waited for his taxi despite having to withstand the cold of the night wind.

...***...

Beep Beeps

It did not take long, online taxi orders Yua also arrived. This time Yua did intend to go home, unlike a few hours before.

"Your sister again, right?" ask the driver.

"Oh yes sir" replied Yua.

It turned out that the one who received Yua's order was the same person as the previous online taxi order. "Now go home, right?" ask the driver again.

It seems like the driver was afraid of losing his customers again until he made sure this time Yua would not cancel his order. GPS is installed and the taxi is ready to go to the address that has been set on the GPS.

"Yes sir.. go straight ahead" replied Yua.

When the online taxi that brought Yua began to move away from the cafe and Alex could not see again, he also rested his head on the glass wall of the cafe. Several times he hit his head like he was regretting what happened today.
