Chapter 27 a love story
• 👑 •
Luxembourg, Europe
"Thank you," Madrid thanked the old man Joseph who owns the neighboring farmland besides his. Two weeks ago, he was exiled and his chosen country was Luxembourg, Sofia's second home. With the trust fund that he had from his deceased mother gave him, he used it to buy a land and have a peaceful life there.
Maybe, during that time, he'll know his wife and son's life in the said country. Somehow, what they have told him was true. Luxembourg brought him peace and contentment. It was different from the Philippines.
"No problem, Madrid. We're the only ones who gonna help each other here. Just call me if you need anything, alright? Me and my wife are just here." Madrid nodded and smiled at the old man's offer. Earlier, Joseph helped him tending his crops on the land. Farming was new to him so the old man was really a big help. Maya-maya ay bumalik na rin ang matanda sa kabilang lupain nito.
Madrid just stared at the vast land in front of him. It was already afternoon and he couldn't help but to smile at the view. He never knew what contentment feels like until he stepped on that new country... but it would be better if his family was there with him too—his wife and son. He really misses them so much.
But he did terrible mistakes in the past... and it's one of the consequences he has to endure for the rest of his life.
Madrid turned his back to go to the small house he bought together with the land. Sa pagtalikod niya ay bigla naman siyang napatigil. His heart almost skipped a beat when he saw a familiar woman wearing a white sundress—just a few meters away from him. Her blonde hair was a little longer like a bob cut. He couldn't see her expression clearly but for sure, his heart rattled inside his chest because of her sudden presence.
What is she doing here?
Is he dreaming?
Why is his wife suddenly appearing out of nowhere?
Napansin naman niya ang unti-unting pagyapak nito papunta sa kanya. He did the same. He walked slowly towards her direction, not breaking his eyes off at her. Then his wife suddenly ran towards him. She ran so fast that when he caught her in his arms, he almost lifted her up.
Madrid Anselmo could feel his heart bursting as he embraced his wife in his arms. He felt her crying on his shoulders as she hugged him closer as well. Hindi niya maintindihan kung anong nangyayari sa mga oras na iyon—but he was sure he was too happy that his wife was there with him, in flesh.
