My Dear Comrade | √

Chapter 20

Rachel's POV

Today is my day off, I was sitting on the sofa while watching a film when Ate Monica suddenly sat down next to me.

"Doctor Rachel, my pretty sister." Ate Monica said so I immediately faced her. What's wrong with her?

"Ha?" I asked as I raised my brow.

"You are the prettiest and strong woman I know." Ate Monica said with a... Fake smile? What? She looks not okay. Hindi niya naman kasi ako sinasabihan ng ganito, like may kailangan ba siya? Does she have a problem?

"Uh... Thank you." I confusedly answered and turned my gaze back to what I was watching.

"Baby, you... Should go back to my niece now." I was surprised by what Ate Monica said so I slowly looked at her.

"So-Sorry. Wha-What did you say?" I'm shuttering said.

"We also come from the future. We were also shocked by what happened but we didn't tell you because we let destiny do what should have happened." Ate Monica explained.

"... And I guess, Justin and Joshua and I are the reason why we are here." I'm literally confused at what she was saying right now. Huh?

"Huh? What are you saying? Come on." I tried to giggled and act like I don't know what she was saying.

"Nung papaalis na kami papuntang California, we ate at Wendy's first. Then, there's an Ale approached us and she ask us, Kung may isa kayong kahilingan. Ano 'yun at bakit?" What she says won't sink into my brain. Because the three of them were going to California for good and our parents were there too. Their husband and child were already in California because they had a Visa problem.

"Hindi naman alam if she's serious or she just fooling around with us. Pero sumagot kami ng, Maging maayos yung relasyon ng kapatid ko at ng asawa niya. Gusto namin maging maayos ulit yung marriage life nila cuz we don't want that our niece grew up in a broken family. Because in the morning you called me that you want to file an annulment." I was just listening to what she was saying and what she was saying was like I wanted to cry.

"Correct. Tumango lang yung Ale, tapos biglang umalis. Me and Justin chased her but nagulat na lang kami kasi para siyang nag-disappeared." Joshua suddenly came so I immediately looked at him. Kailangan talaga TagLish ka magsalita?

"Ate Monica....." I mentioned my Ate's name because there's was a tear forming in ng eyes but she just smiled at me. Her smile proves that she is best sister because even though her little sister has her own family she still doesn't neglect it even though she has her own family as well.

"I don't know what to say." I quickly said and looked at the ceiling to hold back my tears.

"Rachel, come here I will hug you. Because maybe in the future I won't hug you because I'm already in California." Ate Monica smirked so I immediately hugged her and finally cried on her shoulder.

"You should go back to Marcus now. You curse George but you can't live without your son." As Ate Monica said this to me, I knew there was a smile on her lips.

"Come on, my dear cousin. Sana ma-realize mo din na you are here in 2013 not to change your future, but to fix your relationship with George." Joshua suddenly said as he shrugged his shoulder.

"Tumayo kana dyan and go to your husband. Alam kong maayos na yung relasyon niyong dalawa. Hurry up and go to Doctor George!" Joshua shouted so I stood up and hugged him.

"Thank you to for everything. Thank your for always taking care of me and you guys don't leave me alone." I said as I cry, tears of joy the tears coming out of my eyes. Ang saya ng puso ko ngayon.

"No problem. We're just four in the family, magtutulungan tayo hanggang mamatay." "Joshua giggled so I laughed and nodded.

George's POV

"Hello, I'm looking for a wedding ring. The ring is just thin with a diamond in the middle and the other one is just plain. Is this all you have? Okay, thank you." I said and left the shop.

Bakit ang hirap hanapin ng wedding ring namin ni Rachel? Pang-walong shop na 'to na pinuntahan ko ngayon.

I entered the ninth shop when someone suddenly called me so I immediately picked up my phone and looked at who was calling..... It's Rachel.

(Where are you?)

"What?" I confusedly asked. Is she crying? Garalgal yung boses niya.

(Do you want to be with Marcus again and see me every time you wake up in the morning?)

"Rachel....." Does she mean she forgives me?

(George... Let's go home.)

"... Yes, I'm ready to be your husband again... Let's go home." There were tears forming in my eyes. I looked at the sales lady who's looking at me too and ended the call.

This must it be. Please. I badly want to be with my family.

"Hello, I'm looking for a wedding ring. The ring is....." I stopped speaking when I saw the ring I was looking for.

I can't speak because I can't believe in what I see. Our wedding ring. This is it. I can now be with my wife and child.

As I stared at the ring, there was suddenly a scene entered my mind. A scene where I wear the ring to Rachel in front of the altar. Ang kintab niya. Sobrang ganda.
