In contrast to Iris' place, Outside Ana's Palace was taken away by Dylan towards the palace garden which was close to the hall space.

"Prince.... Where are you taking me?" asked Ana with her hand still held by Dylan.
Dylan did not answer, he continued to take Ana to the palace garden, until they reached a gazebo that was far enough from the hall.
"Do you remember this place?" dylan asked with a smile.
This spot? Ana doesn't know if she has to answer if she doesn't remember any place like this at all, when she wrote the story.
A tree so large like a banyan tree stood firmly in front of him, under the tree there was a river decorated by lotus flowers, and a Gazebo that looked familiar to him.
"Come on."
Dylan took off his grip from Ana's hand, and invited Ana into the gazebo.
What the hell is this why it feels like I'm here so often.
"Why? You don't want to come in?" ask Dylan.
"It's not like that I mean Prince," Ana replied directly.
With a slow step Ana entered the gazebo, there Dylan had prepared a chair for himself to sit.
"Thank you Prince" Ana said after sitting down.
Dylan immediately smiled himself back up to step into a chair that faced Ana directly.
"Teri, you need to know that right now I'm really happy to see you coming to this party, as I expected," Dylan said with a smile.
Ana was just silent with her eyes that kept staring at the table, where there was only one ornamental plant that made Ana interested.
"Ha... I really didn't expect that, you'd actually come."
Ana's hands clenched tightly as Dylan said, "Aren't you the one who gave me the order to come to this Prince's party?" ask Ana.
Dylan's smile was gone when Ana again showed her cold face, as if to say that she was not very attractive at the moment.
"What... You're not actually coming here?" ask Dylan.
Without thinking Ana's display immediately nodded her head, which made Dylan go back to silence.
"The man you were with earlier, do you have a special relationship with him?" dylan asked directly, which made Ana instantly speechless.
"It seems that your question does not need me to answer the Prince, because if I want to have a relationship or not with the man, all that is not your business Prince," replied Ana, who immediately made Dylan speechless.
"Rather than you discuss the Man who walks with me, you better answer my question, Prince why would you walk with me? who is your ex-fiance?"
"Why are you saying that?" dylan asked who was starting to get uncomfortable with Ana's words.
"What did I say this was wrong? I just want to know the reason you treated me like this Prince, isn't it weird, a Homounculus Prince was reunited with his fiancee's matan who had been expelled from the capital."
"Dad!"
"Prince is it alright for you to take me like this? While Miss Kalika who was the candidate of the Crown Princess was inside the hall."
"Can we not talk about anyone else here?" ask Dylan who started to get emotional.
"I'm sorry Prince, I just feel good about Miss Kalika who you've been living in the hall before."
Trying to hold back his emotions, Dylan let out a rough breath that left Ana a little confused.
"It's not easy for me to be able to meet you again Teri, what else are you getting further away from me right now."
Ana was still silent at Dylan's words, Dylan's hand slowly landed on the table which made Ana instantly focused towards him.
"Don't you miss this kind of atmosphere?" ask Dylan suddenly.
"Ambience?"
"You're not going to practice anymore, Prince?"
Dylan, then 14, turned his head towards Teri who had just arrived.
"It's not that I don't want to practice, it's just that I'm resting right now."
"Hmm Rest?"
Buk up!
"What are you doing?"
"Prince... After we get married, will this suffering end?"
"Why are you suddenly asking like that?"
With her head lowered, Teri tried to hold back her tears that were eager to come out, it felt like she was eager to complain to Dylan how hard it was for her to learn the royal rules.
"Well... Prince can I whine a little at you?" asked Teri with her head that she rested on Dylan's shoulder.
"I just need a backrest to let go of this tiredness."
The deg!
Ana's eyes immediately blinked loudly when Teri's memory returned she felt, now Ana knows why this place looks familiar to her.
Because this is where Dylan and Teri often meet, considering that it makes Ana's breath instantly become irregular.
"Give me are you okay?" dylan asked as he saw something strange about Ana.
"Yes?"
Ana's body instantly froze as their two eyes met each other, which made the atmosphere there even more awkward.
Duars!
The powerful sound of lightning striking, along with the torrential rain, made Ana feel a little worried about the state of the road she was going through later.
"Are you afraid you can't go home?" ask Dylan.
"Yes, because I told my parents I was going home after the show."
"I see, but looking at the weather right now, it's really hard for you to get home."
Dylan turned back to Ana, "Aren't you going to stay over? I'll have the servants prepare one bedroom for you."
With a slightly lowered head Ana thanked Dylan who was willing to accept yes.
"Thank you for your offer Prince."
Dylan only smiled, his hand coming back to Ana's hand on the table, this time his hand was held firmly by Dylan.
"Strue... I'm really glad you're here."
Ana is silent, inexplicably feeling guilty for tricking Dylan into thinking of himself as Teri.
"Do you think it's wrong to ask you to come back the way you used to?"
"What?"
"I still can't forget you Teri."
The deg!
Let go of that hand Ana!
He's evil!
The deg!
Ana quickly pulled her hand that was being touched by Dylan, her breathing instantly went up and down, as she felt a whisper from Teri.
"Give me what?"
Get out of there Ana!
The deg!
Again Ana heard Teri's voice, her head immediately turned around to look for Teri's whereabouts.
"Give me what? Are you all right?"
The deg!
Ana quickly stood up from her seat, her legs slumping backward, as Dylan again wanted to touch her hands.
"Trie?"
"Sorry Prince, I have to go now."
With a hasty step Ana left before Dylan with the weather conditions that were raining heavily.
