The woman was sitting quietly in one corner of the sofa. Her long hair covering half of her face while looking down at her fingers. She lifted her tear stricken face and acknowledged his presence with her very sad eyes. Then her heart remembered.
The world suddenly stopped for both of them.
Lee felt his heart skipped for a sec.
Rae crumpled like a rag doll, her body halfway on the sofa.
She passed out.
"Mam Rae!" Aling Virgie shouted. Liam carried Rae to the only bedroom in the house. They were hovering around her when Ivy walked in. She calmed them both and looked after the unconscious woman. Ivy assured them that Rae will be fine as her vitals are normal. Shock made her passed out.Plus fatigue... physically and emotionally.
Liam was stroking her hair gently. His own tears blinded him while reminiscing all of their heartaches and their joys when they first fell in love.The heartache he gave to this woman when he chose to honour his commitment to Jessica and let her go instead. Then the pain he felt when they met again, but this time a different Rae with a wall she built herself and the truth that she has committed herself to another man. Then their last chance at love before she went to US for good. How he prayed every night and day for her to come back and this time choose him instead... but she didn't.
Now in front of him once more, his love for this woman lying so peacefully is overflowing from his heart
Outside the room, Aling Virgie was in the kitchen making soup for everyone.
In hush hush voice, she was able to tell Ivy that sir Lee is Liam, her NP's ex boyfriend.
"Oh my God!"
"Kinilabutan nga rin ako pagkatapos sabihin ni sir Lee na siya si Liam. Kaya pala Lee. Biro mo ang galing ng tadhana. Pinagtagpo tagpo tayong apat para magkrus ulit landas nilang dalawa." Naiiyak na naman si Aling Virgie
Rae opened her eyes and looked around. She started sobbing again, thinking that it was another dream. Liam held her hand.
" Rae, you are awake. This is not a dream. I am here. Nandito ako."
