jazing at him earnestly, I knitted my brows. “I’m not being cocky. I’m serious. I get that life is ull of

curveballs, but hey, we’re friends now, right? If you ever hit a rough patch, I will be here, doing

whatever I can to help you out.”

fter saying it, I felt a twinge of embarrassment at my own naivety and quickly added, “But hat’s not

nobody’s gonna push you around. So, this whole ‘what if‘ scenario is nimportant.”

The park was huge, stretching from the performance stages all the way to the cableway station. To

keep things under control, they did not let any outside cars drive in, so if you wanted to get around, you

A primeval, virgin forest meant no development and no messing with nature. If you wanted to see the

sights, your only option was to take a ride on the cableway and get a glimpse of the forest from above.
