"Raquel," Sergio called her name softly. "We're here, mi amore." He rubbed her cheek, trying to wake her up.

"Five more minutes," she answered him with a sleepy voice. Sergio couldn't help but chuckle.

"Five more minutes." He repeated. "Paula won't be really happy." He smiled.

As soon as Raquel heard Paula's name, she opened her eyes. "Let's go." She yawned and got up from her seat.

"As you wish." Sergio went right behind her. "How are you feeling?" He asked once they got out of the helicopter.

"Better." Raquel smiled warmly as they both walked towards the car which was waiting for them.

"I'm glad." Sergio opened the door of the car, waiting for Raquel to go in.

When they both got into the car, the driver drove them to their house in Palawan. Paula and Mariví were already supposed to be there with some of Sergio's men.

Raquel was so excited to see them, the whole way she was thinking only about them. She needed to see them, she missed them both like crazy.

Finally, after a few minutes of driving, they stood in front of their door. Sergio took the keys out of his pocket, wanting to unlock the door, but he felt so nervous. He was shaking from anxiety about how Paula will react to seeing them after this long time.

Raquel saw Sergio's worried face and took his hand. She looked into his eyes and just like that, Sergio's nervousness disappeared. She leaned closer to give him a quick kiss before opening the door and walking into their house.

"Ready?" Sergio asked one last time before putting the key into the lock.

"Ready." Raquel let out a small chuckle and Sergio nodded. He slowly unlocked the door, trying to be as quiet as possible. The door unlocked and they both stepped into their hallway. Everything looked exactly the same as they left it, the pictures on the walls, the furniture.

"We're home!" Raquel shouted and laughed a little.

"Mamá!" A little girl's voice sounded from the kitchen. She appeared at the doors with a wide smile on her face. As soon as she spotted Raquel, she ran towards her. She jumped into her arms and Raquel hugged her tightly. "I missed you," Paula whispered.

"I missed you, too," Raquel answered, feeling nothing else but the guilt of leaving her little girl alone. She was kissing her forehead, not wanting to let her go. Paula was giggling this whole time, she was so happy her mom was at home.

"Mi hija!" Mariví called Raquel as she finally realized what happened.

"Mamá!" Raquel smiled at her mom, putting Paula down. While Mariví came closer and hugged Raquel, Paula looked at Sergio.

"Sergio!" She smiled happily and jumped at him. He didn't expect this at all but accepted her in his arms. "I missed you." She hid her face in his shirt. Sergio was surprised at first, but then he wrapped his arms around the little girl and with a smile on his face enjoyed her embrace.

"I missed you, too." He answered quietly. Oh, how he loved Paula and it made his heart warm when he found out she missed him.

Mariví pulled away from Raquel, eyeing Sergio. Raquel looked at them, she couldn't help but smile, they looked so cute.

"Sergio, you have to see my new origami owl." Paula smiled happily as Sergio put her on the ground "Come with me." She took his hand and led him to her room. Sergio looked at Raquel, she nodded happily, she was happy that he and Paula got along well.

"Who's this handsome guy?" Mariví asked winking at Raquel as Paula and Sergio left. Raquel looked at her mother, at first, she thought it was a joke, but then she realized it wasn't.
