I will see you in my Dreams novel Chapter 22

Hannah, please ride with me to Gilroy. I did not bring a driver, I will be sad and lonely driving alone. 

Okay, I will ride with you, I don't want you to be sad..she said jokingly.

I am so glad, you've been together for three full days, you had a break from your busy schedule, you're not flying with them, are you?

Of course not, I will go home to my place then back to work in two days. 

Can we continue with our talk? I'm been anxiously waiting for your answer? Please give me a chance. I promise I will not let you down. Let us create our life together. Let us talk more about it.  

It's not easy for me to go back right away.  You wronged me.  I know it happened before our time together, I suffered so much pain in the process of our separation. I can't promise anything right now. I am sorry! 

Everything that I've once owed you, the pain, the hurts, and disappointments, I'll do my best to make it up every day of our lives and unto the future. He paused for a while to clear his throat..... Yes, I will compromise, I will do anything you want.  I need you in my life, please, please come back to me.   

Hannah was listening intently, she found sincerity and love in what he was saying. 

It was almost 2 hours drive, they talked, laughed, cried a little bit then talked, laughed again, and sing out of tune like in the old days.  All through the trip, Ari was holding Hannah's hand, squeezing it, kissing the back of her hand, placing her hand to his chest close to his heart. The two years of absence make their hearts grow fonder. Maybe the seed of destiny that belonged to Ari and Hannah is starting to sprout again. 

Hannah, can I bring you home at the ranch tonight?

No Ari, please drop me at the hotel.  This is our last night together with my friends.

Okay, can you spend a night with my family at the ranch tomorrow after they left?

I will think about that Ari. Okay, I will wait for your decision tomorrow morning.  Please give me a chance, Hannah!  By the way, I will host breakfast at the ranch before their trip. I already told them earlier.

Thank you Ari for your hospitality, I am sure my friends appreciate that gesture, and of course, I do appreciate you.

Everything for you to make you happy, Hannah!
