CHAPTER FORTY- EIGHT- I AM GOING HOME
JOANABE (JOENABELL) POV
Leonel is about to say something, but I cover his mouth to keep him shut. I give him a sad look and say, "We should grab some food." I wipe my tears and unbuckles my seatbelt. Leonel doesn't want to let me go, but I protest. "Leonel, I know you want to know why, and there are a lot of things running in your mind, but let me tell you in advance, I am going to show you everything about me."
Leonel firmly nods and gets out of the car to open the door for me. I softly thank him for being a gentleman. I look up to see the name of this small and simple restaurant. It's le petit dejeuner resto (little breakfast resto). I chuckle softly because the restaurant fits its name. I guess we are having toast with butter and jam, not bad for a day.
"You okay with this?" Leonel asks, concern. I smile at him. He pinches my nose, and I groan. "You look like Rudolph, the red nose reindeer," He teases. Wow! He h

ALEXANDRA POVI am packing my things to leave the country for good. I can't sell the house because this is full of my daughter's memories and emotions. It's valuable. So, I am keeping the property until the rest of my life. I open my daughter's room for the last time. The bed she used to lie when she is sad and need some rest. It all comes back to me in the sense that I can't let her go. I grab her white pillow and cry with my memories of her. She leaves me without a notice, and I can't accept the fact. I regretted leaving her, my biggest regret. I mourn over my late daughter. "Hello?" I hear the voice of a young lady outside my house. I let go of the pillow and say, "Mama has to go, Joanabe." I wipe my tears away to hide from crying. I quickly take the stairs to open the door. *WHO IS MY GUEST AT THIS HOUR?*I open the door, and I see little Boucher visiting me with a handsome, tall young man beside her. "What are you doing here, Joenabell?" I asked the young girl, who looks tear

I open the door of the car to get out. The breeze greets my skin while my eyes see the sea. I think I am missing the vitamin sea, and it is soothing to me.I take off my slippers to walk in the sand, barefoot. I leave footsteps in the sand as I walk in peace. Leonel is smart, so I believe he will find me by my footprints."I see you are awake, Joenabell." I turn my back to see the person. It is none other than Leonel. A tear fall in my cheek. His eyes show concern. "Why
