All the emotional and physical exhaustion that Jim endured suddenly disappeared. He hugged and kissed her a hundred times but still felt he had not enough! She felt she was already bruised. He was so overjoyed. No words could describe enough the sense of relief he had felt. Whoever rescued her, he was willing to return the favor in folds.
Jim wasn't done yet with his moments alone with his wife, when another guest arrived. It was kuya Nap who tagged along with Anthon.
They were both bringing grocery bags, a box of cake and a big bunch of flowers. Jia's eyes widened in seeing those things.
"For what are those? " She asked.
"Isn't it worth celebrating that your back, safe and alive? " Anthon said, not smiling at all.
Jia stared at him for a moment, then her eyes moistened. She was really moved. "Not mad anymore? " She smiled.
