"Good morning, Madam!" greet Santa as Eryn walks up to the eight of them sitting in the hotel lobby.
"Good morning, Santa. Good morning, everyone," replied Eryn.
"Morning, Mistress. Well, Madam looks very different today" Caesar said.
David immediately nudged Caesar's arm so as not to mostly talk. Eryn simply smiled faintly at the praise of his employees.
A bus stopped in front of the hotel lobby. Carlos came up from the bus and met them.
"Good morning everyone. Ready for the city tour today?" ask Carlos.
"Well, so we're gonna take this bus, Mr Carlos?" Santa is happy.
"Yes, then let's go up!" said Carlos.
"Yeah! We're going around town!" answer them compactly.
Santa and the seven men take turns getting on the bus. Eryn approached Carlos who appeared to be wearing a casual suit today.
"Good morning, ma'am," said Carlos.
"Good morning, Carlos. You look different today."
Carlos just smiled.
"Are you going to be our tour guide yourself?" ask Eryn.
"According to Mr. Black's orders, ma'am. I'll be your tour guide myself today."
Eryn. "Wow! It's a surprise, Carlos."
"Come, Madam!" Carlos let Eryn get on the bus.
The bus started driving away from the hotel and started down the Sao Paulo city road. On the bus, Santa sets up his cell phone camera and takes a selfie with the others. He also uploaded his activities to his personal social media.
Eryn just kept silent to see the happiness created in the bus. He just stared at the streets of the city with a mind that went nowhere.
"Mrs, are you okay?" Carlos' voice broke Eryn's daydream.
"Eh? Carlos's? Yeah, I'm fine. Maybe I was just too tired yesterday."
"Is the Madam sleeping well?" carlos asked deliberately to investigate Eryn.
"Eh? Me? I ... sleep well," answered Eryn.
"alright. Enjoy your journey, Madam. I'll say hello to the others."
"Yes, Carlos. Thank you." Thank you."
Carlos leaves Eryn and meets all eight of his tourists.
"Hi, guys. For the first destination we will visit Parque do Ibirapuera. It's a city park that...."
Carlos tells a long story about the beautiful places in Sao Paulo. The tourists look excited and want to start their vacation.

Mexico City, Mexico City,
Eric came to Eryn's office because this morning he had not received any news from his wife. He meets Lolita, Eryn's best friend and Eryn's right-hand man in taking care of his business.
"Maybe Eryn forgot to tell you because he was very busy there" said Lolita, a little nervous.
This morning Eryn called and said he and his team could not go back to Mexico today. The client gave a bonus in the form of a short vacation around the city of Sao Paulo.
Lolita noticed Eric's slightly disappointed look.
"Don't worry! Eryn must have called you too when he was free. Maybe they're going for a walk now." Lolita calms Eric down.
"alright. Thank you, Lolita."
"Noah's okay, right?" ask Lolita for a little chat.
"Yes, he's good. Then I'll excuse you. I have to go to the office."
"Ah, yes. Be careful on the road, Eric."
Lolita drives Eric forward until the man disappears with his car. Lolita immediately grabbed her phone and called Eryn.
"Ah, fuck! He turned off his phone. Eric's face was sad. This kid!" sulk Lolita while typing a message for Eryn.
"Call Eric right away if your phone is on. Why did you forget to call your own husband, huh!" lolita wrote in her message which she immediately sent even though Eryn could not read it now.

- Hotel Black Diamond
Black opened his eyes and saw Rose sitting on the sofa while looking at her. The beautiful woman glanced at her watch then glanced at Black.
"Are you going to stay in bed, El?" said Rose.
Black seemed to still be in unconscious mode from his drunkenness. He held his head.
"So, I slept in Eryn's room?" muttered.
Rose approached Black and sat down on the edge of the bed.
Black turned back the memory last night as he banged on Eryn's bedroom door.
"Where is he?" ask Black.
"He's gone with Carlos and his eight men. You better get ready! You have an important meeting later this afternoon." Rose shows Black's phone full of calls from Enrique.
"Where are you going?"
"I'm a designer, El. Of course I'm going to my boutique. We'll meet after you've finished the meeting. Hye!" Rose stepped out of Eryn's room.
At the door, Rose stopped and recalled what had happened before Eryn left.
Rose realized last night that Black would never go back to her room. The beautiful woman searches for Black's whereabouts until she finally sees him enter Eryn's room. Although Rose's heart rumbled, as much as possible she did not disturb what Black wanted to do. He knew it was Black's heart's desire.
The next morning, Rose woke up from her sleep and did not find Black sleeping in the room. He immediately cleaned himself up and went out of the room and into Eryn's room.
Arriving in front of Eryn's room, Rose hesitates whether or not she should do this. But technically, Rose is Black's fiancee.
Long Rose stared at the door until finally the door opened and displayed the figure of Eryn there.
"Rose?" Eryn muttering.
"Hi, Eryn," said Rose.
Eryn was silent. He feels guilty for spending the night with Black and forgets the beautiful woman who became the man's fiancee.
"Is El inside?" ask Rose then.
"Yes, he's inside. You just go in. I have to leave immediately with my team," Eryn replied.
"All right." Rose passed through Eryn's body and headed straight to the bed where Black was still asleep.
There was a bit of anxiety that struck, but instantly everything disappeared. Rose was stunned to see Black still fully dressed as he had when he left her room. A glimmer of smile rose on his thin lips.
......***......
The day had begun to afternoon, Eryn and his team were still busy exploring the shopping center that is quite famous there. They buy some souvenirs and also souvenirs for their families later.
Eryn just bought some stuff for Eric and Noah. Intention wants to buy something for her mother-in-law. But he was afraid that Eleanor would not like Eryn's taste. Then he bought it for Elza, the sister-in-law.
Eryn's eyes were fixed on Carlos who was talking on the phone.
"Who called him? Carlos was busy talking on the phone" Eryn murmured.
The 25-year-old then approached Carlos.
"Hi, do you want an escrim?" Eryn brought a cup of ice cream to Carlos.
Nervously Carlos ended his call.
"Mrs? Are you done shopping?"
"Yeah, that's it. I don't buy a lot of stuff."
Carlos receives Eryn's ice cream cup. "Thank you."
"I'm sorry that today has troubled you. Looks like you're very busy. You shouldn't have to be our tour guide. Hire someone to be a tour guide. Isn't your boss very rich, haha," joked Eryn.
Carlos only smiled faintly and did not respond to Eryn's words.
"Is he unconscious? I'm here because of him! Mr. Black doesn't trust anyone but me to watch over you, madam," Carlos said.
"Oh yeah, how long have you been working for Mr Black?" ask Eryn to investigate.
"It's been a while. Why, Madam?"
"none. I just want to know. Do you also know if she really is..."
"Mrs, we'd better catch up with them. It's dinner time soon and we have to get back to the hotel." Carlos immediately cut Eryn's sentence and walked away from the woman.
"God! I knew this would happen! Why would Mr Black have to put me in this position?" grunt Carlos while continuing to look for Santa and his friends.
Eryn was just looking at Carlos' departure. He had expected that Carlos would not say anything to him.
"There are many secrets. What exactly is going on?" inner Eryn.
......***......
Eryn returned to the hotel at nine after dinner together. Today was exhausting for him. But he is also happy because he can provide a different holiday experience than usual to his employees.
Eryn walked towards his room. He was looking for someone. But he found no one there.
With a shaky step he entered into his room. He stared at the bed. Last night something warm happened there for a moment.
Eryn immediately cleaned himself up and then went up to the bed. He rubbed the pillow next to him. Black slept there last night with him. There are no haunting nightmares when he sleeps with Black.
Her clear eyes suddenly dripped white crystals as a sign to vent her feelings.
"You left me again, El..."
Eryn's body started to shake. An expression of sadness and also a sense of loss.
