"What do you want to buy?" asked Steve.

"I want to go to Granville" Steve turned to hear Sonia's answer, because it was a bit far considering the flight they had taken.

"Serious?" Steve asked again, Sonia nodded.

"Okay then, come on!" Sonia happily rushed over, as soon as she arrived at the general market she immediately looked for everything she wanted, yes all food, maple syrup and knick-knacks.

"I want it so much, really"

"Why maples?" This leaf is the symbol of the State of Canada, where this leaf is synonymous with autumn.

In addition, this leaf also has meaning for someone who thinks independently. This leaf also has many meanings and meanings that describe a person's character about his calm personality like autumn.

Although calm, but has great ambition in it. "Because the most beautiful myth in Canada is about maple" Sonia laughed casually, Sonia took a breath while explaining the beauty of maple.

Steve is now laughing at the girl's behavior, who is very excited to taste what he wants. They immediately rushed back because the flight might be delayed as a result. Sonia is very enthusiastic about having some paper bags that she really wants to share with her employees at home too.

On the way to the airport Steve was still curious about the maple leaf that Sonia had told him so he asked again and again. "So why is the leaf romantic, other than being used as a symbol of the state?" Steve asked in the cab, his body facing Sonia.

"I watched a movie called GOBLIN, it's a Korean movie. There's a scene of a girl wearing a red scarf running around with a guy hoping to get a fallen maple leaf, the myth is that if they catch the maple leaf they will marry their first love or someone who walks with them that"

"Really? should we try?" said Steve curiously.

Sonia turned her head "I really want to try too but it's not autumn" Sonia pointed at the snowflakes outside the window.

The taxi driver chuckled as he watched the two interact. "You guys are the perfect couple, you don't need to catch a maple to get married" she whispered.

Sonia and Steve immediately scratched their heads. "Come here again in autumn, if next year you are still not married," continued the taxi driver.

Sonia didn't feel comfortable hearing the words or prayers from the taxi driver.

"We will come again next year, hopefully we will meet again" Steve said patting the taxi driver's shoulder.

Maple leaves have five views with different meanings, what are they? Strength, simplicity, warmth, romance and loyalty are symbolized by different colors.

Because the color of maple leaves also changes frequently, as the seasons change. The colors of maple leaves are red, yellow, green, brown and orange.

When the leaves are green they will be shady when viewed. In addition, it provides shade and comfort that can be felt when close to a maple tree.

As for the brown leaves, they usually appear in autumn. The season when maple leaves will look gray. When autumn comes the leaves will change from green to orange to red.

Then it fell from the tree and fell to the ground. Maple leaves that fall in season represent peace, comfort, sadness, heartache, memories and much more.

In Japan there is a tradition to see the change of maple leaves.

This tradition is carried out when entering autumn when the maple leaves will fall.

Because in Japan there is a saying that if you find a maple daum that has eight sides, then you will meet your true love.

Maybe this is just a myth or history from the Japanese who believe it. But you must still respect it and don't vilify that belief. Because everyone has their own beliefs about something.

Wouldn't you be angry if your trust was insulted or something. Sonia arrived on time at the airport. It only took their flight an hour and a half to arrive in New York, but the exhausted Sonia fell asleep as soon as she entered the plane cabin.

The flight was used by Steve to see the face of a sleeping woman not far from his seat, and it didn't seem like they had finally arrived in New York. And immediately call a taxi as soon as you leave the airport area.

Sonia fell asleep on Steve's shoulder from exhaustion. The streets of New York were busy as usual but it didn't make Sonia open her eyes, she was really tired or something. Though the boisterous voices of the people had come out and were very loud. It's only natural that New York is called a city without death, look at its gleam so that it can shine a mouse hole in the downtown area of ​​the world's fashionable city. For 24 hours, New York City is always busy and bustling. Even at night, New York City is always crowded because there is a lot of nightlife spread throughout this metropolitan city.

If you're lucky, you can meet these world's celebrities, in public places such as on the street, in restaurants, to the subway. After arriving Steve woke him up, and took out all the things he had brought.

They entered the house together with happy faces. "Sonia?" someone called from behind the door he had just opened, a familiar voice and soft to the ear as usual.

"Edward!" the name hangs in Sonia's throat, she just froze how shocked to see her husband was standing and now walking towards her.

Steve, who was no less surprised, didn't move and didn't even greet his brother, he just stared at Edward's steps that were getting closer.
