I will see you in my Dreams

Chapter 11 My heart is full.

Everyone in the cottage heard the content of the message except Hannah, who is in the bathroom. They look at each other. Is this good news or not-so-good news. Jack finally broke the silence….Cambodia is only 3 hours from here. God is great all the time. Alleluia! Ari is emotional after hearing the message. My woman was very good in what she does, I am so proud to be part of her life…..so proud that she loves me back. Somebody up there is watching us. They want us together. I can spend every weekend with Hannah in Cambodia.

Two days earlier, Ari discusses with his brother Yael that he would like to be transferred to Gilroy asap. Yael said, give me at least one year. Visit Hannah every 3 months.

Ari understood Yael's position, he cannot leave his brother asap because he is getting hitch, which is very unfamily and unprofessional.

Hannah steps out of the bathroom….who's on the phone at this early? Ari runs to her and embraces her so tight, another bone-crushing hug….Somebody up there is watching us? Ari said.

Hannah: the Aliens?

Everybody laughs….

What's going on? Ari played the message again and watch Hannah's facial expression.

Do you remembered what we talked about last night?

Yessssss, oh my god……..that solves the problem. It's God who is watching us, not the aliens.

Everybody laughs.

Is this really happening? Hannah was so excited.

Just believe Hannah, everything will work out fine. Susie said.

I will join you in 2 weeks. We will travel to see your children and my family. Then I will help you settle in Cambodia. I will make sure that you're comfortable. I will visit you every weekend. How's that?

Hannah hesitated for a while but happiness in her heart…. Sounds like a plan.

Ari would like to be in control, Hannah doesn't mind at all.

Everything was put together, I am in tears….. Chie said.

Me too, Coney was misty eyed.

Me three, Susie said.

Gie and Nel ran to Hannah and just embrace her…I am happy for you and Ari.

Group hug people….Everyone is happy.

All are misty-eyed, concerned but happy.

Happy moments are on the air.

Okay, guys…we have to start the trip, Hannah's appointment is at 12 noon.

When do I meet your relatives here? Ari asks Hannah

Soon, you have to meet my children first and my siblings. Hannah responded.

Everyone was sad about leaving……they enjoyed this short vacation. Ari, Jack, and Sam are great hosts.

Till we meet again ……each one said their goodbyes.

Trip to Manila.

The trip to Manila is smooth, they have to drop Hannah at The Peninsula to meet her relatives for lunch then she will be brought to the airport for her flight back to San Francisco, California.

Lunch with family and extended relatives is very pleasant and fun. Exchanges are family-related, past stories, and new family members are introduced. Everyone is happy to reminisce about the past. Future plans are also discussed. It's a happy lunch for everyone.

Hannah's nephew drives her to the airport.

Upon entering the airport, Ari is calling her.

How's the lunch? Ari asks

It's Perfect, good food, good company, it's always been pleasant when meeting the family. I am inside the airport now. I can work on my writings while waiting for my flight. I will call you when I landed in San Francisco.

I missed you already, Hannah. I will ring you from time to time.

Upon checking in, Hannah was greeted by a stewardess and showed her to the lounge. Content (C) Nôv/elDra/ma.Org.

She offered coffee, tea, spirit, and a comfortable lounging chair so she can write while waiting for her flight.

It took 30 minutes to settle herself in the comfy lounging chair when a tall guy moves toward her. It's Ari.

Hi! How is my Hannah?

You're full of surprises….you did not tell me that you're seeing me off.

That's why we call it a surprise, isn't it? You can write on the plane, let's have something to eat. I'll introduce you to my nephew and a very good friend of mine who will take care of you when you reach San Francisco.

Wow, that's new to me. I always travel alone and take care of myself. Hannah said.

Not anymore….you have me now, I love taking care of you. Ari said.

Ari took her hand-carry luggage, and both of them proceed to the restaurant across the lounge.

Two guys are waiting for them.

Hannah this is Michael, my nephew, your pilot on your flight back, and this Liam, a very good friend who will give you a ride from the airport to your place.

Nice meeting you both. I am getting spoiled by Ari. I might get used to this….

They shake hands and exchange pleasantries.

Ari looking at her affectionately…..I love spoiling you.

They had dinner, and have some old funny stories to reminisce.
